The meanings of the names of the first 10 men counted in the - TopicsExpress



          

The meanings of the names of the first 10 men counted in the biblical genealogy (Adam to Noah) actually reveal a phrase. That phrase describes the Man who was to come. Is it possible that God’s plan of redemption is right here in the Old Testament (Torah)? “Man (is) appointed mortal sorrow; (but) the blessed God shall come down teaching (that) His death shall bring (the) despairing rest.” Genealogy- ADAM (adomah) means “man.” This one makes absolute sense, since he’s the first one. SETH means “appointed.” Eve said, “For God has appointed me another seed instead of Abel , whom Cain slew.” ENOSH (anash) means “mortal,” “frail” or “miserable,” used in the context of incurable grief, sickness, woe or wickedness. It was in the days of Enosh that Man began to defile God. KENAN means “sorrow”, “dirge” or “elegy.” Again, this was a dark period of history, and parents traditionally used names that referred to circumstances at birth, etc. MAHALALEL (mahalal) means “blessed” or “praise” and (El) was the name for God. Therefore, Mahalalel traditionally means “the blessed God”. (Side note: you’ll see that many Hebrew names include El, such as Dani-el, “God is my Judge,” Nathani-el, “Gift of God,” etc.) JARED (yaradh) means “shall come down.” Many scholars attribute this to the time when the “sons of God” “came down” to Earth to corrupt the daughters of men, resulting in the Nephilim (“fallen ones”). ENOCH means “teaching” or “commencement.” Later in the Bible, we find that Enoch was the first of four generations of preachers. METHUSELAH (muth) means “death” and (shalach) means “to bring” or “to send forth.” Therefore, his entire name means “his death shall bring.” LAMECH (root still evident in today’s English meaning “lament”) means in Hebrew context here “despairing.” NOAH (nacham) means “to bring relief” or “comfort.
