Greetings, The verse is not referring to when Enoch was in heaven. At 65 years of age Enoch begat his first son. He named him Methuselah which means "It shall be sent (deluge) or he has sent his death". Methuselah lived 969 yrs. He died the year of the great flood of which his grandson Noah and his family were the only survivors. It is believed that Enoch, who was a prophet, had a vision of the flood which explains why he named his son as he did. It is also believed that this dream scared him so bad that the last 300 years of his life he walked with God and was such a righteous man that God that suddenly he was not. This means that he was transported to heaven without experiencing death. prayon |
