Genesis 5, names are pretty significant!!!

Genealogy of Genesis 5: Adam, Seth, Enosh, Cainan, Mahalalel, Jared, Enoch, Methuselah, Lamech, Noah. These men were given prophetic names. God put this together incredibly. Adam = Man, 
Seth = Appointed, 
Enosh =Mortal, 
Cainan = Sorrow, 
Mahalalel = the Blessed God, 
Jared = shall come down, 
Enoch = teaching, 
Methuselah = his death shall bring, 
Lamech = despairing, 
Noah = comfort or rest.

"Man, appointed Mortal Sorrow, but the Blessed God shall come down teaching His death shall bring the despairing comfort and rest."


And if you take the first Hebrew letters of these names, you get three Hebrew words which mean: I will forgive my enemies, showing compassion.

How amazing is that!!!
