1 | The offspring of Adam's | Gen 5:1 | Searcher56 | 215641 | ||
God's day to you, Azure, I had written you and then lost all I wrote ... the area I typed went blank. "When Adam had lived one hundred and thirty years, he became the father of a son in his own likeness, according to his image, and named him Seth. Then the days of Adam after he became the father of Seth were eight hundred years, and he had other sons and daughters" (Gen 5:3-4). Notice that of all the children of Adam (and Eve) only Seth was in his own likeness, according to his image. Adam was in the likeness of God (Gen 1:26, 5:1). Scripture is intentional. God listed Cain's line first and it ended. Seth's line continued (1Ch 1:1ff, Luk 3:23-38). None of Adam’s other children’s line were included, save the wife of Cain and wife of Seth. If you study genealogies (e.g., Gen 10-11, 1Ch 1:1-8:40) you’ll see all but one line ended. The sons of God and the daughters of men (Gen 6:2) has been debated for millenniums, and even a few years here. Searcher |

2 | The offspring of Adam's | Gen 5:1 | azurelaw | 215647 | ||
Thanks Steve. I had that bad experience before :-( I learnt the lesson :-) If I am going to make it long, I will do it on a word file first and copy and paste after I finish the writing. Thank you for your input. Very much appreciated. Concerning the controversy on the sons of God (Gen 6:2), I sure know it has not been settled. However, from my own study, I would lean more onto viewing them (the sons of God) being the line of Seth instead of angels. Nevertheless, I would not be dogmatic about this :-) Shalom Azure |
