Old Testament Timeline of Patriarchs
The Old Testament Timeline of Patriarchs
The Genealogy from Adam to Noah in Genesis Chapter 5
The Old Testament Timeline of the Patriarchs begin with a man named Adam.
Adam was the first Man on earth. Created from the dust of the earth by God Himself, at the age of 130 years Adam had a son, Seth. at the age of 105 years, Seth became the father of Enosh. At the age of 90, Enosh became the father of Kenan.
Kenan lived 70 years, and became the father of Mahalalel. Mahalalel lived 65 years, and became the father of Jared. Jared lived 162 years, and became the father of Enoch.
Enoch lived 65 years, and became the father of Methuselah. Enoch, then, lived another 300 years on earth. However, Enoch never died like every other human who has ever walked the earth. Because he walked faithfully with God, at the age of 365 years, the Bible tells us that “God took him away” from this earth.
Methuselah lived 187 years, and became the father of Lamech. At the age of 182 years, Lamech had a son named Noah.
