After the Flood, Noah’s three sons and wives populated the earth.
Patriarchs from Adam to Israel (Jacob)Įveryone today shares the same lineage from Adam to Noah, since only Noah’s family survived the Flood. Consider the other patriarchs that could have talked to one another: Although the Bible never records that Adam and Methuselah or Abraham and Shem met, that possibility is likely. It is hard to imagine that Abraham could have spoken to Shem (Noah’s son), who surely talked to his great-grandfather Methuselah, who in turn could have spoken to Adam, the first man, directly. Lamech, it seems, was a bit unusual by being about a quarter of a century away from making 800. Like Elijah, Enoch was translated without dying ( Genesis 5:23 Hebrews 11:5). Until the Flood (Noah’s day), living to about 900 years old was the norm. Ages of the Patriarchs from Adam to Jacob
