Genesis 5:21-24
5:22 a Enoch lived in close fellowship with God (literally Enoch walked with God; also in 5:24 b): Enoch’s position as seventh from Adam in the genealogy strikes a contrast with Lamech, the seventh from Adam in the line of Cain (see study note on 4:17–5:32).5:24 c Unlike all other sons of Adam, Enoch did not succumb to death; rather, he disappeared, because God took him (cp. 2 Kgs 2:9-12 d; see also Heb 11:5 e).
