Chuck SmithHOST
It is conceivable that Adam himself wrote the first record.
Chuck SmithHOST
This evening I was just fooling around with some of the ages here in chapter 5, and I came up with an interesting little fact, and that is that Lamech the father of Noah, Adam was still alive when Noah's father was born.
Chuck SmithHOST
And they lived contemporary for many years.
Chuck SmithHOST
So it is very possible that Noah's father heard directly from Adam himself about the Garden of Eden.
Chuck SmithHOST
and about their being put out of the garden, the angel that was put there to protect and all.
Chuck SmithHOST
And Lamech told his son Noah, Lamech heard it directly from Adam, and Lamech told Noah, and Noah told his sons, Hem, Shem, and Japheth, and Shem was living at the time that Abraham was born.
Chuck SmithHOST
So you really don't have the story passing through too many hands to get it down even as far as Abraham's.

Being a teenager today isn't easy.
HechtHOST
There's a very interesting, curious Rashi near the end of Bereshit.
HechtHOST
Noach is born, okay? And, um, the Torah tells us why his father, Lamech, calls him Noach, why he gives him this name.
HechtHOST
I think you spoke about this two years ago.
HechtHOST
It could be, but maybe I'm gonna, I'm gonna give it a little bit of an extra twist today.
HechtHOST
[laughs] 'Cause they haven't discovered the nose yet, okay? Noach was the first person to develop.
HechtHOST
He discovered, discovered, invented, et cetera, plowing tools to be able to work the earth.
HechtHOST
And that's what his father meant when he said, "Ze yenachamenu." This guy is gonna bring us a respite because it was so hard to get a crop out of the land until Noach came along and made tools that allowed them to be able to plow and plant properly.
HechtHOST
So that brought them a respite.
ShayaGUEST
Blessed are you, Lord our God, King of the universe, who gives the Torah of truth and the good news of salvation to His people Israel and to all peoples through His Son, Yeshua the Messiah, our Master.
ShayaGUEST
Methuselah lived one hundred eighty s- seven years and fathered Lamech.
ShayaGUEST
And Methuselah lived seven hundred eighty-two years after he fathered Lamech, and he fathered other sons and daughters.
ShayaGUEST
So all of Methuselah's days were nine hundred sixty-nine years, and then he died.
ShayaGUEST
Lamech lived one hundred eighty-two years, and he fathered a son.
ShayaGUEST
And he named him Noach, saying, "This one will comfort us from our work and from the pain of our hands because of the ground which the Lord cursed." Lamech lived five hundred ninety-five years after he fathered Noach, and he fathered sons and daughters.
ShayaGUEST
So all of Lamech's days were seven hundred seventy-seven years, and then he died.
ShayaGUEST
And Noach was five hundred years old when he fathered Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
Nechama DinaHOST
The Torah is telling us the generations from Adam to Noach, and today we will finish them.
Nechama DinaHOST
The last two generations are generation number nine is Lemech, a different Lemech, not the first one we learnt about earlier in the Parshah, and the 10th generation is Noach.
Nechama DinaHOST
Lemech, Noach's father, had a Nevuah and gave him this name since he would comfort the world from the curse that was given to the ground because of the aveira that Adam HaRishon did.
Nechama DinaHOST
He said, [foreign language] The word yenachamenú has in it the name Noach.
Nechama DinaHOST
Noach invented a plow, so now it wasn't as hard to grow food.

Shalom RosnerHOST
"V'lo yikasher be'einai maamar harach shekasav haMoreh Nevuchim, ki lo haya orech hashanim rach beyechidim ha'eilah hanizkarim.
Shalom RosnerHOST
V'shar bnei Adam b'dorosiehem," and the oth- the rest of the people, besides Methuselah and Lamech and all these people, "v'shar bnei Adam b'dorosiehem hayu shnos chayeihem hashanim ha'tivi'im ha'murgalim." Just like us.
Shalom RosnerHOST
That's what he quotes from the Rambam in the Moreh Nevuchim.
Shalom RosnerHOST

Those women tempted the angels, and the angels couldn't take it, of course.
Monty MaderHOST
The Genesis Apocryphon, a Qumran scroll from the first century BCE, retells the birth of Noah with Lamech accusing his wife of sleeping with one of the watchers.
Monty MaderHOST
One of the things I'll say is if you've never read the Apocrypha and you're really interested in biblical history, I would highly recommend reading it.
Monty MaderHOST
This was a part of the original Bible that was then taken out by Martin Luther.
