From Adam to Noah
The line from Adam to Noah in Genesis 5. Each bar is a life; its colour changes in the year the next man of the line was born. The vertical line is the flood, in Noah's six hundredth year (Genesis 7:6 ).
Read in the Bible: Genesis 5
Enoch did not die: “And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him” (Genesis 5:24 ); see also Hebrews 11:5 .
