Genesis Chapter 5

Adam had a rich history of how God created him in His image by many other male and female people. He called them each one simply, Man, after giving blessings to each of them. Now Adam had a son named Seth to which he became father of all sons and daughters who had him. But then he passed away after living there for many years. There were also many others that lived on the earth who came after Adam had died, including Methuselah and Lamech. They had many sons and daughters to bear. Near the middle of the last chapter, Enoch was with God talking about His mighty work when Enoch stayed there. 

Then after that, God sent him out on the earth, for Enoch had done his duties of taking care of his children. Lamech named a new son, Noah. He stated, “This is the child who will send us new hope and grief from our hard work because of the poor ground which God had gotten rid of.” 

Lamech had many children to bear in his time, and after living for many years, he passed away and was no more. Noah had 3 sons named Shem, Ham and Japheth when he was exactly 500 years old.
