You don’t need to go Genesis 5 to find the gospel, go to Genesis 3. It’s easier to read and it doesn’t break your head. By reading the gospel it’s easy to infer that the woman’s seed appointed to crush the serpent’s head while simultaneously being bitten is Jesus.
@@duckymomo7935 can you point to a specific version of the Bible adopted by any catholic church (not just the roman one) which presents this "mistranslation"? Please do not throw off these baseless accusations
@@duckymomo7935 it isn't a ,"mistranslation", "he", "she" and even "it" are valid translations of the Hebrew. By the way, "The Catholic Church" does not translate anything, the Vulgate was by St Jerome but contrary to myth he didn't translate the Bible into Latin from scratch, he actually took all the Old Latin translations, which dated back to the early 2nd century and updated them, the translation "she will crush your head" came from those old translations and reflected the common Christian understanding of the time
@@tafazzi-on-discord he is referring to the Vulgate and the English translations resulting from it, but "she," is not a "mistranslation", the Hebrew has no pronoun so "she", "he" and even "it" are all valid translations. Catholics and Orthodox tend to prefer "she" to emphasize Mary's role, Protestants tend to prefer "he" to sideline Mary while Jews tend to prey"it" to avoid the implication that Jesus might be the fulfilment of that verse
Like how much I can sell my daughter into slavery for, how to beat my slaves, where to buy slaves from. Lots drunken incest cave party he had with his daughters. Kids getting mauled to death by bears for kids. Beautiful nuggets aren’t they 😇
@@FlyingSpaghettiJesus Maybe you should do some research first about why the british empire changed its position on slavery. For example: *William Wilberforce* (24 August 1759 - 29 July 1833)[1] was a British politician, philanthropist and *leader of the movement to abolish the slave trade.* A native of Kingston upon Hull, Yorkshire, he began his political career in 1780, eventually becoming an independent Member of Parliament (MP) for Yorkshire (1784-1812). *In 1785, he became an evangelical Christian, which resulted in major changes to his lifestyle and a lifelong concern for reform.*
When I first heard this I looked up the names in a Google Hebrew names translator to verify. The definition of 9 of the 10 names was spot on, and one was questionable, but reasonable, and as a whole told the story of Jesus. That, my friends, is good enough for me! You look it up for yourself and realize that Jesus is truly Lord of Lords.
When I first heard this argument, it sounded so amazing that I wanted to believe it, but suspected there were some liberties taken with the translation. Thanks for clearing it up. God’s Word is already astonishing in its revelations and has no need of extra inspiration from us.
@@bretmelton7116 The name Kenan (qê·nān; Strongs 7018) has the same root as qî·nāh (Strongs 7015) and qî·nāh means "lamentation". It occurs for example here: *Jer 7,29* Cut off your hair and throw it away; take up a *lament* on the barren heights, for the Lord has rejected and abandoned this generation that is under his wrath.
Words in Hebrew can mean many different things. I looked each of these names up individually and this “hidden message” is true. Enoch means “trained”. The name Enosh means “mortal, frail, or miserable”. Kenan means “to mourn, lament, or sorrow after”.
yep, the claim has always been in Hebrew as well. He forgets that. I have checked myself and they are right. This cat is a blasphemous, evil spreader of rumors. His entire focus is on making Christians look stupid. He thinks he is smarter than all of us lol AND CHUCK MISSLER hahhahahaha
Yes please provide your sources. I want this to be true as I believed it for so long, but If we are gonna claim it as truth we need to be able to site our sources
“He was despised and rejected- a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. We turned our backs on him and looked the other way. He was despised, and we did not care. Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all. He was oppressed and treated harshly, yet he never said a word. He was led like a lamb to the slaughter. And as a sheep is silent before the shearers, he did not open his mouth. Unjustly condemned, he was led away. No one cared that he died without descendants, that his life was cut short in midstream. But he was struck down for the rebellion of my people. He had done no wrong and had never deceived anyone. But he was buried like a criminal; he was put in a rich man’s grave. But it was the Lord’s good plan to crush him and cause him grief. Yet when his life is made an offering for sin, he will have many descendants. He will enjoy a long life, and the Lord’s good plan will prosper in his hands. When he sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he will be satisfied. And because of his experience, my righteous servant will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he will bear all their sins. I will give him the honors of a victorious soldier, because he exposed himself to death. He was counted among the rebels. He bore the sins of many and interceded for rebels.” Isaiah 53:3-12 NLT This was written around 700 years before Jesus came into the earth, yet it describes His life perfectly. "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16 God loves you so much and showed that by sending His Son to die for us so that we may inherit eternal life. We deserve hell but He gave us heaven through faith in Jesus. He took the punishment we deserved and by putting our faith in Him we can be saved.

What I found after much research was this: Adam - man Seth - appointed or placed Enosh - frailty Kenan - acquire Mahalalel - praise of God Jared - he descends Enoch - Dedicated, Trained Methusaleh - One who was sent Lamech - powerful or to make low Noah - rest So some of it does fit what people are saying based on my research but I do see some liberties taken to make it completely make sense. Either way, I don't really see myself using this as a tool to plant seeds with people. There's plenty of other places to do that.
Matthew Henry in his commentary wrote that Methuselah's name can mean 'he dies, there is a dart,' and 'sending forth' considering his death marks the beginning of the flood, it does indeed mark the beginning of a 'bringing forth' then it could be translated as 'his death shall bring'. Also, considering the obscure origins of these names no one can say with 100% certainty the definitions, even your cited 'expert.'
“Concerning Methuselah observe, 1. The signification of his name, which some think was prophetical, his father Enoch being a prophet. Methuselah signifies, he dies, or there is a dart, or, a sending forth, namely, of the deluge, which came the very year that Methuselah died. If indeed his name was so intended and so explained, it was fair warning to a careless world, a long time before the judgment came.” From Matthew Henry’s commentary on Genesis 5. It is available online, for anyone who wants to double check.
The technical reason for rejecting this is that the name has the letters mem, tav, vav in that order. The root meaning 'death' is mem-vav-tav and regular grammar can conjugate this into a few different forms, such as mawet, mot, mutu, matti, etc...but metu would be outside of this understood structure. So that's why it is assumed to be a different root altogether.
I have a feeling that the names do mean something, and that it should point to Jesus. But just like their ages, the meaning of their names is probably lost to us now.
@Dakota Bledsoe No no no no. It's 2+2=Billy Bob Thornton, where I feel that Billy Bob Thornton is equal to the number 4, but I think that the numerological process that is needed to connect Billy Bob Thornton to the number 4 is lost to us. G? ☺️
Are the ages of the names lost to us? We know that they are older than the Hebrew Bible and likely a lot older than written text, like e.g. older than cuneiform. Exactly how old is not as important.
@@WhatYourPastorDidntTellYou Evidence? Why don’t u go take a dump and then study the used tp very closely…..will prove beyond all doubt that demanding “evidence” of other ppl’s opinions makes you an a$$hole
You're wrong on this IP. Eve literally says I will call him Seth because God has appointed me another son. We're supposed to know the connection to "appointed", not because it is the meaning of the word but through the meaning of the root of the word. I see another commenter has done all the hard work setting this out, so I won't repeat the details.
Yup seth means appointed or placed in every translation I checked... Enosh means man as frail and mortal so yes mortal can be derived from that statement.
I see videos occasionally that have similar tones about ancient or original Chinese pictographs having something to do with genesis that I think a lot of us would love to hear your thoughts on.
Can’t believe I have to defend God’s word to a fellow „christian brother“. Serious question: Who are you working for? God? Or the enemy? Actually we have a slightly different word meaning, which is even better and shows the beautiful hidden message that God put into his Holy Word! Adam: Humankind Seth: Appointed Enosh: mortal Kenan: lamentation Mahalalel: The Shining one of God Jared: descends / goes down Enoch = to INAUGURATE people / to train as TO TEACH someone Methusela = His Death Shall Bring Lamech - For Humiliation Noah - rest You can very easily build the following sentence with it: Humankind was appointed mortal lamentation, but the shining of God (must be God’s son, right?) shall go down (from heaven to earth, right?) to teach that his death shall bring, for humiliation, rest. It’s even better!! By humiliating us before God by repenting, our sins are being forgiven! Here you have THE TOTAL PROOF, that I’m not lying! With sources!! The names and their meanings: 1. Adam = Humankind Coming directly from the Hebrew word אדם (ʾadam), meaning "man" or "humankind," the name Adam was the name of the first man created in Genesis. Interestingly, in Genesis 1:26, the word אדם (ʾadam) is clearly plural and means "humankind," as the accompanying verbs are plural and two people are created as a result. Source: bam.sites.uiowa.edu/hello/adam 2. Seth = Appointed Meaning: Set, Appointed, Foundation Etymology: From the verb שית (shyt), to set or place firm. When Eve names Seth she says, "God has APPOINTED (שית) me another offspring..". (Genesis 4:25), and traditionally readers have understood that therefore the name Seth must come from the verb „appointed“ (שית). Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Seth.html 3. Enosh = mortal The name in Hebrew is אנוש (enosh, Strong's #583), meaning "man." This word/name comes from the root אנש (A.N.Sh, Strong's #605) meaning "MORTAL" in the sense of weak and sick. Source: www.ancient-hebrew.org/names/Enosh.htm 4. Kenan = lamentation Noun קינה (qina) denotes a kind of sad poem; a DIRGE OR LAMENTATION, which both had to be fabricated and could, presumably, pierce a person's soul like a spear (which is an obvious Biblical figure of speech; see Luke 2:35). The denominative verb קונן (qonen) means to do a dirge, which could be either to chant or compose one. The name Kenan may even be construed to come specifically from the verb קונן (qonen), to chant a dirge (Ezekiel 27:32, 1 Samuel 1:17), from the noun קינה (qina), LAMENTATION or sad poem which is sung (Jeremiah 7:19, Ezekiel 2:10). Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Adam.html 5. Mahalalel = The Shining one of God In Hebrew, this name is written as מהללאל (ma-ha-la-ley-eyl, Strong's #4111) and is a combination of two words, מהלל and אל. The root of מהלל is הלל (ha-lal, Strong's #1984) and means "to shine." This can be the shining of a light such as from a flame or the moon, but figuratively the shining of a person’s character such as his fame or pride. From this root comes the word מהלל (ma-ha-lal, Strong's #4110) meaning "shining" or "ONE WHO SHINES." The second word is אל (eyl, Strong's #410), which literally means "mighty one," but is often transliterated as "El." The meaning of the name מהללאל can be "The shining of El or "The shining one of El." Source: www.ancient-hebrew.org/names/Mahalaleel.htm 'El' is hebrew for 'God'! The Shining one of God! 6. Jared = descends / goes down The name Jared comes from the verb ירד (yarad) a very common verb meaning TO GO DOWN, DESCEND, decline. Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Jared.html 7. Enoch = to INAUGURATE people / to train as TO TEACH someone Meaning Inaugurated, Trained Etymology From the root חנך (hanak), to inaugurate or train. Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Enoch.html 8. Methusela = His Death Shall Bring Meaning: When He Is Dead It Shall Be Sent, Man Of A Javelin Etymology: From (1) the noun מת (mat), man, or מות (mut), death, and (2) the verb שלח (shalah), to send or let go. For a meaning of the name Methuselah, Jones' Dictionary of Old Testament Proper Names reads מות (mut) for the first part and translates the whole name with When He Is Dead It Shall Be Sent. ‚To send‘ would be the same as ‚to bring‘ Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Methuselah.html 9. Lamech = For Humiliation Meaning: Strong Man or FOR HUMILIATION Etymology: From an otherwise unused root that means to be strong and robust. From (1) the particle ל (le), to or towards, and (2) the verb מוך (muk), be low. Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Lamech.html 10. Noah = rest Meaning: Rest Etymology: From the verb נוח (nuah), to rest. The verb נוח (nuah) means to come to rest or to cease interference. Noun נחת (nahat) means quietness or a quiet attitude. Noun ניחח (nihoah) or ניחוח (nihoah) means a quieting or soothing. Noun הנחה (hanaha) means a giving of rest. Noun מנוח (manoah) describes a place or condition of rest. Noun מנוחה (menuha) or מנחה (menuha) means resting place, or quietness. Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Noah.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Here you have it: Humankind was appointed mortal lamentation, but the shining of God (must be God’s son, right?) shall go down (from heaven to earth, right?) to teach that his death shall bring, for humiliation (repentance before God), rest.

Oh boy! I "learned" these meanings for names from my first online Bible teacher, Chuck Missler, a man I respect greatly. He always said "Do your homework". Now IP, a man whose teachings are Gold to me & there is a disagreement on the subject. I thank IP for the "heavy lifting"in other videos, but guess it's time to do my own heavy lifting & sort this one out for myself! I do like Swiss Apologetics comment below. Thank you IP for your take on Genesis 5 & desiring clarity in Scripture.
I have a Master's of Theology, I only mention that to say that I have at least spent a bit of time studying theology. Inspiring Philosophy has made one of the most ignorant video's here. The names do have the meanings mentioned if you understand the primitive root verbs that underly the names. Abarim Publications has quite good summaries of name meanings and the root verbs underlying them; or you can use Blue Letter Bible which has lexicons that show the root meanings underlying words.
In case anyone’s interested in praying for our Christian leaders/shepherds/ministries/TH-cam channels like Inspiring Philosophy: 16 prayer points you can pray for them: 1 You can pray that they will always have a good walk with God (that they will not forget their first love), that God will bless their daily private Bible reading and prayer life, and that they will have good sound doctrine. 2 You can pray that they will be full of the Holy Spirit and that God will bless their ministries so that many more people will come to faith in Jesus for God’s glory, and that they will feed God’s sheep and disciple them properly. 3 You can pray that they will be humble, that they will remember how many Christian leaders in the past have fallen, and that they will have a very healthy fear of the Lord. 4 You can pray that God will protect them and the ministry God has given them from: Pride Love of fame Love of money Desire for the approval of people rather than the approval of God Being worried about offending people Compromising God’s Word Sexual temptation Demonic attacks Persecution (from outside the Church and inside the Church) 5 You can pray for their PHYSICAL HEALTH and that God will heal all their health problems. 6 You can pray for their MENTAL HEALTH. Pastors and Christian workers often have stress and battle discouragement and depression. Please God touch them and heal them of all mental and emotional problems and distress. They can also sometimes be hurt by the people they serve or by other Christian leaders - so we can pray that this won’t happen but that if it does that God will heal these wounds and strengthen His servants to forgive each other and that God will restore unity for His Glory. 7 You can pray that God will bless and protect their families. Satan often attacks Christian workers by attacking their loved ones. So you can pray that their family members will all have a good walk with God, have good sound doctrine, that God will protect them all from demonic attacks, that God will also bless and protect their physical and mental health, heal them of all infirmities, and that God will bless all their family relationships so that there is peace and love in their families. You can pray that God especially blesses and protects all areas and parts of their marriages, so that they will not be tempted to look elsewhere. Also please God bless their marriages especially so that they can be a model and example for other Christians. 8 You can pray that God will abundantly bless and protect the finances of the ministries and also the personal finances of God’s servants (especially finances needed for health or medical expenses). You can pray that they always have abundant finances so that they can always do every good work God wants them to do. 9 You can pray that God blesses and protects the relationships between Christian co-workers in ministries - so that no jealousy or strife or bitterness takes root. That they will all have Christian unity and that their focus will be on God getting all the glory and rejoice in any and all work for God. 10 You can pray that God prevents any technical or logistical or legal or any type of problems for their ministry, but if they have any such issues/problems that God will help them resolve/fix and totally solve and remove these problems. 11 If it’s an internet (e.g. TH-cam) ministry you can pray that God will help the videos spread on those platforms and get many views and that God will use the videos to bring many people to repentance and faith in Jesus. 12 You can pray that God will help Christian leaders be good shepherds of Jesus’ sheep and continue to feed Jesus’ sheep, and that they will not only convert people, but also disciple new converts so that they can grow and develop and mature in a healthy and supported way. 13 You can pray that God will give them the heart of a servant. 14 You can pray that God gives them wisdom and helps them and powerfully guides them when making all decisions and plans. 15 You can pray that if they make mistakes or sin that God will grant them humility and repentance and restore them. 16 You can pray that more Christians will pray consistently for Christian leaders/pastors/shepherds/workers/ministries. *********************** You could make a list of pastors/ministries you want to support and pray for them regularly.

OTHERWISE THEY MIGHT SEE WITH THEIR EYES, HEAR WITH THEIR EARS, UNDERSTAND WITH THEIR HEART, AND RETURN, AND I WOULD HEAL THEM.’ But blessed are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear.” Matthew 13:13…16 ----------- 13 You can pray that God will even open blind eyes and bring prisoners living in spiritual darkness out into the light of Jesus: “a light to the nations, To open blind eyes, To bring out prisoners from the dungeon And those who dwell in darkness from the prison.” Isaiah 42:7 ----------- 14 “pray for us that the word of the Lord will spread rapidly and be glorified” 2 Thessalonians 3:1 ---------- 15 You can pray that we will have more of God's love in our hearts for the lost so that we will not be afraid to share the Gospel, but that God's love in us will override any fears and make it automatic that we share the gospel in love. If there was a frozen lake, you wouldn't want to go swimming in it. But if a small child fell in, you would automatically dive in to save them. We can pray for love that will cause us to act. ------------------------- "Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful." Colossians 4:2 Jesus told us multiple times throughout Scripture to watch and pray always.
I wish you’d have more transparency with this kind of thing, because you should’ve pointed out how one of your own videos pushes this narrative (in your Genesis series).
Lifeway , the makers of logos, have a free study bible you can get on your computer or phone. It's not exactly a commentary but all of the notes for Genesis and the rest of the Torah were done by Dr Mike Heiser. I know inspiring philosophy has cited Heiser's work quite a bit.
The birth of Seth when Adam new Eve again . Eve said ; God has apointed me a son to replace the seed of Abel who Cain slew. Unlike Cain , who was a man Gotten from the LORD, Seth was a son appointed by God. Meaning the apointed by God is through the linage of Seth
While there has been misunderstanding with this concept of the names of the Noah's genealogy talking about christ before he was born, there is some truth here when it comes to the concept of Jesus begin predicted and ordained since the beginning. For instance if you go to the Torah or just the old testament and you look at it in it's accurate Hebrew translation, the first verse of the text does spell out Christ's mission. Because every letter in hebrew has a meaning. The first word in the text in Hebrew roughly translates to "The son of god will be destroyed by the fathers works/hand on his mark/cross." This stands out to me because it reminds me of the text in Isaiah. Specifically Isaiah 46:9-10; "Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure." So there some truth to the fact that God declared Christ coming before he came. I do think we should look into the meaning of the names in Noah's genealogy though. It would interesting to understand what they mean as well.
Nowhere in the letters of first word of the text can it be translated as “The Son of God is destroyed by his own hand on the cross.” Bereshith beyt-resh-aleph-shin-yud-tav = House-head-chief-tooth-hand-mark. There's no "son" in any letter, ntm G-d, destroy, or cross. This nonsense started with Jeff Benner. Professional scholarship does not support his views. I really don't know why Christians feel some need to find some hidden something to validate their beliefs. It seems to me, if it is truly valid, then the plain written text in its plain simple meaning and truth should be more than sufficient. It doesn't serve anyone by making up such things that really aren't there.
@@disguisedcentennial835 I'm talking about if you spell out the symbolic meaning of every letter in Hebrew of the word for 'beginning', you can derive the sentence I said in the previous comm. Every letter in Hebrew has numerology and symbolism attached to it. There's alot I could explain about what I mean, but I think this video explains better what I'm talking about. He goes into better detail than I can. m.th-cam.com/video/RmnUkNT55gU/w-d-xo.html
@@Axer01250 Even with how you put it, the letters dont make sense. Beyt does mean house and Resh does mean head, but it is more than just each individual letter. Many words in Hebrew are made up of two Hebrew letters. For instance the letters bety-resh together make the word 'bar', which can roughly means 'son'. The letters alpeh-shin together can roughly mean 'fire' or 'destruction'. That's why in the torah the burning Bush in Hebrew is called the aish sanai. Aish, meaning fire, coming from putting aleph and shin together. And while aleph does mean chief, it only means that because not only is it the first letter in the Hebrew alphabet, it also represents God as being the first being. The word Elohim begins with and Aleph, which as you said means chief. Also yod-tau together roughly translates to mean 'time' as well. So what the word Bereshith really means when you spell it out is this. Beyt-resh:"The Son(of god)", Alpeh-shin: "Will be destroyed", Yod-Tau: "At the appointed time." So it seems we were both wrong, because this is what is actually means. Thanks for calling me out, I wouldn't have noticed that before.
@@sonyyung5510 Thank you for the pleasant dialog. You initially stated the correlation between individual letters. Combining two letters together to form the word you want is cheating. We can combine any two letters together to get the text to say virtually anything. That is not a valid methodology. Secondly, Ben is the hebrew word for son. Bar is Babylonian Aramaic. So additionally, now we are allowing to cross over language boundaries as well? I'm sorry but this is a far stretch, that really has no linguistic foundation. It holds no weight even in a PaRDeS interpretation. This method doesn't even hold true to the rules of traditional hebrew gematria. It's really more of an eisegesis than anything. I'm more curious as to why Christians have to make, and hold on to such claims to prove some sort of pre-existing christ figure, if it's not already pointed to in the plain text of scripture itself? Shouldn't that be enough?

Looking into it myself, I got the impression that they're more names referring to the trajectory of Cain and Seth based on how they represented improper and proper worship. Cain's Enoch comes first but Seth's Enoch comes after Praising God and someone going "down." Jared compares to Irad which might specifically be talking about Eridu suggesting God only gives knowledge after we humble ourselves in worship of Him while Cain represents Man taking Knowledge for himself according to himself, eventually abandoning God and seeking divine meaning your own way until you are brought down and scattered. Jabal, Jubal and Tubal-Cain etymologically all having the same base of Yod-Beth-Lamed that relate to flowing (sound from a horn, nomads over a region, water in a river) and "Tubal-Cain" likely meaning some kind of refinement, perfection or seasoning of Cain. So the ultimate fruit of Cain is being washed away in the Flood. The tradition of Naamah as Noah's Wife even suggesting her name of Pleasantness showing God's mercy even toward Cain by preserving the Good of his violent brood on the Ark. Then again I also think most of the big Genesis ages might be "reverse Gamatria" considering how Hebrew Numbers were just the Alphabet with different values. So convert the huge age to the Hebrew alphanumeric rendering and then see what the semantic range of that "word" is
They are not getting the meaning from the name in those instances but the root words like Methuselah or Methushelach; Math: Male, man from Mathay: When? Shelach: missile, weapon, sprout from Shalach: To send, appoint. But the Methu might be from the same root as moth (to die, death) so methu shalach death will send or appoint aka death will bring. There is a thought that the mek in lamek might be muk meaning to be low or depressed aka despair. Enosh: Man, mankind from Anash properly to be mortal. Anash: To be weak, sick aka mortal. Kenan or Qenan from the same as qayin: spear which is from the same as qinah: lamentation aka sorrow. Mahalalel: praise of God. Mahalal: praise from Halal: to be boastful, to praise aka Blessed. El: God, in pl. gods. Enoch from Chanok from Chanak: to train up, dedicate aka teaching. Seth from Shith: To put, set aka appointed.
Nice, this was a very interesting video. Lamech, probably means hero, but even Scholars who are trained in the Hebrew language have stated that they're not sure if that's what it means. Methuselah, for sure it is clearly unknown what it means
I don't understand how other religious beliefs outdate the beliefs of Judaism and, in a sense, Christianity when the Bible says that the Creator of all things created man and woman?
You should consider researching these name again. It's not difficult to verify this claim as Hebrew word roots usually have multiple meanings. I just did a quick search and easily verified ALL of them! This is not the only "messaging" found in the Torah. Check out what has been discovered using the pictographic meaning of the paleo-hebrew characters used in the original manuscript of the Torah. The language was designed for transmitting hidden messages! One astonishing example is the tetragrammaton YHWH. The pictographic meaning of the four letters forms a sequence "hand", behold, nail, behold.. The very sacred name of God describes the nails and the hands of His Son sacrificed on the cross!! The Gospel is in His name!!!
One thing that I've found interesting is that Lamech in Hebrew is the letters in the word "King" mixed up. (Lamech, למך -- King מלך) What does that mean? Heck if I know, but it's cool.
@@HodgePodgeVids1 I meant evidence for the fact that Hebrews were enslaved in Egypt, the 7 Plagues, Moses leading his people out of slavery, etc. I’ve read articles stating it probably never happened, because there’s not much historical evidence it happened, and something as big as that would most likely have some historical records.

Yes. I heard this from Missler, as well, but wasn’t able to verify his definition of the names. “Neat, if true” was how I viewed it. There is an app called “The Blue Letter Bible” that allows you to look at the Hebrew and Greek words in the Bible. “Seth” *can* mean “appointed” based on the root. “Methuselah”, however, means “man of the dart”, not “his death shall bring”.
I did a lot of digging on it a few months ago. I’m pretty sure he got it from some “hebrew expert” who says stuff like “I’ve been teaching hebrew for 30 years” on his website and yet has zero formal hebrew education and just makes things up as he goes. I can’t remember the name off the top of my head, though.
The translations do seem to pan out. However, my issue with this comes from the fact that the word order appears to be wrong. Biblical Hebrew uses a sentence structure of verb-subject-object (SVO) word order, whereas English, and 42% of world languages, use subject-verb-object (SVO). For example, Genesis 5:24 transliterated reads: "Walked Enoch with God and he was not for took him God." As a side note, Modern Hebrew does follow SVO. If this was a hidden message written by a Biblical Hebrew author to a Biblical Hebrew audience, wouldn't we expect to see a hidden message using the word order of that language? If so, we would expect to see the genealogy look something like: Seth, Adam, Enosh, Kenan, Jared, Enoch, Mahalel, Methuselah, Lamech, Noah. If this is instead to be a hidden message by a Biblical Hebrew author to a future, later audience (to which I would say "Well-played!"), I would find the notion, while not impossible, highly improbable. Also, for fun, I tried this with a subject-object-verb (SOV) word order, the most used at 45% of world languages, and found I had to divide Methuselah into its two parts in order to make the sentence conform properly. This gave me a genealogical list of: Adam, Enosh, Kenon, Seth, Mahalel, Enoch, Jared, Meth, Lamech, Noah, Selah. Now, granted, I am not a scholar of this subject in any sense and all this is what I have gleaned from a few hours of internet search. So, I would be most grateful for the thoughts of any actual Biblical Hebrew scholars. I would also be most interested if this "hidden message" also appears, and is as clear, in any other languages aside from English. Similar to my point above, if a hidden massage is written to people beyond the immediate audience, then it should be able to be read by people of multiple languages, not just one.
Genesis 4:25 KJVS [25] And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath APPOINTED me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
@InspiringPhilosphy I had this revelation over 10 years ago and the message is true because it actually was fulfilled. This agent of deceit must not be given any clout. And to go further in that geneliology you can find when the flood came and that Methuselah was actually holding back the flood because his name means: "his death shall bring" he died the same year if not the same day the flood came its all there for you to do the thinking yourself
Hello, I am a new Christian and I have a very important question. When did the doctrine of the trinity become accepted as Christian theology? I have heard that this one early church father named Polycarp wasn’t a trinitarian and yet he was a deciple of John the apostle. Could this mean that Christians originally didn’t accept the trinity? I know that Christians early on believe the divinity of Christ, but I’m not so sure about the trinity.
Trinity in simple terms means three persons in One God. I can provide you over 30 individual verses of the new testament where in each single verse all the three persons of the trinity are clearly mentioned thus giving us the evidence that they are three distinct persons in the ONE God Head and also all three divine. So, trinity is clearly in the Bible.
You are going against Chuck Misslers teachings on this (which is where it comes from). He's done a lot of study on these and more. Hess is one Scholar. Missler is an expositor of high caliber. Might want to review this in more depth, than just denouncing it because it's poorly presented on TikTok.
Missler didn’t know Hebrew. His thoughts on this in particular are nonsense. Literally anyone in their first class in seminary will tell you this idea is nonsense. You’re welcome to have whatever opinion you want of Missler but he most certainly was wrong about this and most certainly didn’t know Hebrew. If you want an in-depth video, I did one called “Is Jesus in the Genealogies of Genesis 5?” on my channel.
@@WhatYourPastorDidntTellYou Thanks for the info. I will look further into this. My first reaction was strong denial, backed up with lots of info. I deleted my original reply to you and will do further study. I appreciate the time you've taken to do the video and the thoughts and replying to me. Part of my intial response to you is still valid. _"Many scholars/experts disagree with each other, so what hope do we lay people have? Not much. I think we need to pick a side, and decide to be content with what we choose. With one caveat, unless it effects salvation or negatively refelcts on Jesus, then it probably doesn't matter much. As they say, the context is clear and matters more. "_
What do you mean by “accidental”? Like sure he didn’t purposely give people the wrong information but he most certainly didn’t know Hebrew and yet acted like he did. He’s popular for telling people “cool bible facts” without thinking critically about them first.
@@cavalier973 do you think it’s okay to do what he did, though? He knew very well that laymen didn’t have the resources or critical thinking to vet what he would say. Ellen G. White said the same thing when she would give her visions. She’d say “I have a vision of X but don’t take my word for it. Compare it with scripture”…and now we have the entire sect of 7th day adventism.
@@WhatYourPastorDidntTellYou Chuck Missler never said that he was having visions. He was offering an interpretation of a Scripture passage. “Here is what I think/believe about this passage, but don’t make my beliefs your beliefs without checking them against Scripture.” You can do that by reviewing the writings of scholars on the passage. There is not, to my knowledge, a Church of the Mystical Knowledge of Missler.
Your source doesn't give all legitimate readings of these names; as a Hebrew speaker, I think there is a room for the case that guy is trying to make. His argument is still weak, to my taste, and probably even slightly pathetic, but here we have enough coincidences not to mock it, at least.

Hey IP, I have a question for you. If there were humans before Adam and Eve, as well as humans that were outside of their lineage, then how does this not affect the doctrine that Adam’s sin affected all of humanity (original sin)? Because since these other humans were not related to Adam they wouldn’t have inherited Adam’s sin. Therefore, there would be humans with no original sin living alongside humans with original sin. I've wrestled with this question and can't find or come up with a satisfying answer.
I think the answer would contain these points, at least: 1)"Where there is no Law, there is no sin." - So original sin isn't something that is passed down through a blood line. 2)Adam and Eve were chosen as man's first representatives or "priest kings" and therefore their representation imputed the curse on all. Because of them, no man has access to the tree of life. Loss of that access is why we die according to Gen. 3:22 3)Not only did sin come into the world but also Law. For the first time God's will was known and as time went on that knowledge not only spread but mankind's sin did as well. I don't know if that is the full answer but my guess is that his answer would contain some of these points.
@@daduzadude1547 Yes I know that some Christians believe in it but if they do how can they justify original sin if they believe humans evolved slowly from apes?
Any thoughts on Messianic prophesy at the end of Genesis and also "just so stories" (Lot's descendants being offspring of incest)? From the tribe of Judah but for some reason Samuel did not put together that Saul was from the tribe of Benjamin. Is there evidence that these stories were written around Moses' time and not much later?
@Dakota Bledsoe Mu question was about the dating of Genesis relative to the book(s) of Samuel and the life of Moses. I agree that they are all ancient, but how ancient.
>From the tribe of Judah but for some reason Samuel did not put together that Saul was from the tribe of Benjamin. What does this sentence mean? Saul is called a benjaminite in the books of Samuel, the royal bloodline of Israel begins with David, from the tribe of Judah. I honestly don't understand what you meant there.
@@tafazzi-on-discord They are referring to the prophecy that the scepter would remain with Judah, and you are right, this starts with David. Saul was kind of an example of what the people could get if they chased after a king.
@@OnTheThirdDay Genesis would have been an oral tradition as literacy was a much later development. It could well stretch back thousands of years this way, particularly Gen 1-11. It is clear that the people of Moses's time had some scribes because at various points they write things, but their physical texts would not have survived till today so we cannot verify this.
@@tafazzi-on-discord The prophesy in Genesis speaks of a scepter coming out of Judah and it will not go until Shiloh comes. This is interpretted to be a messianic prophesy. The question is that if a scepter is supposed to come out of Judah then why does it seem good to choose a Benjaminite (Saul) as king.
It is generally accepted that the age numbers are a form of gematria. Hebrew numerology. Another ancient works called the Sumerian King's list traces its list of King's from creation on and it lists the exact same number as the genealogy in Genesis. The difference is the age of these kings which can be at least as high as 15000 years old. So, the numbers aren't believed by scholars to be literal ages but rather a symbolic meaning.
That's something we are unlikely to unlock without further discoveries. We can detect patterns of 2, 5, 7, 16, 25, 60 and the like but without the cultural context we cannot say what each number and the various permutations mean.
@@jamesnicholson4652 #2 see Exodus, #4 see Numbers, #5 see Deuteronomy #6 see Joshua, #7 see Judges, #8 Ruth.... Numbers mean things? Observe for yourself. One way is to observe the text of like referenced verses in the Bible (IE 6:6 verses). I know, impossible! One example is a coincidence -- 1000's of examples lead you to see the evidence. Compare the middle verses of the Bible (Psalm 103:1-2) to smallest and exact middle chapter of the Bible (Psalm 117). It's all a precise pattern of evidence. amazingword
Heck that was more of a plus ig. Plus that was Rameses battle formation, with Yahweh replacing Rameses for the Israelites. Your coincidence may work nevertheless and still be cool
According to Strong dictionary Seth doesn’t mean substitute but substituted (which is mentioned that comes from another word where among the other meanings there is a word to appoint). So you are wrong
I thought you were going to say something about there being a partial reversal of names showing an ascent towards God in Seth's line contrary to the descent from God in Cain's.
It is easy to prove it isn't possible because the Hebrew language does not say this, at all. This was popularized by Chuck Missler, who admitted couldn't read Hebrew.The gospel begins in Genesis 3:16, it is simple to understand and easy to read. There are no hidden messages in scripture. The Bible is clear. Just pick it up and read it. Find Christ, come to Him and Him alone for salvation.
The first time I heard this. Was from the God in a nutshell project. Trey Smith says some interesting stuff but more often than not. It is just historically wrong. I fell for this I'll have too do some research. But you are pretty good at research.
Bit of a stretch to suggest 1 John 3:12 is speaking biologically, when not only are lots of people described as 'of the devil/evil one' in Scripture, but literally just 2-4 verses earlier (1 John 3:8-10) in the very same passage you're quoting, it's established that 'everyone' who sins is of the devil, and that there are only children of God and children of the Devil. Bit of a stretch to then suggest that two verses later in the same paragraph, when Cain is 'of the Devil', it suddenly means biologically.
@@hiz-n-lowz1577 Honestly, a short Bible-based response to the immediate problem I raised would suffice. Unless you're here to advocate that everyone who sins (per 1 John 3:8) is a biological descendant of Eve and Satan. It's a simple problem that I trust is easily refuted.
@@hiz-n-lowz1577 That's the point. You 'only mention' Cain as being the offspring of the serpent (and you then take this to mean biologically), when the very passage itself (as well as the rest of Scripture) makes it clear that *all* who sin are offspring of the Devil (and, indeed, there are only Children of God and Children of the Devil). Rendering your take on Cain entirely baseless.
The message is there. Granted, there are primary and secondary meanings. Great effort was made in concealing the message with your alternate options and secondary meanings. Yet, I invite the viewers to do their own resarch and confirm what is true. It does not end there. There are messages in geneology all the way to Jesus. I invite the viewers to look into those lists as welll. ADAM MAN adamah (אדמה), meaning "soil" or "earth". When used as noun, אָדָם means "man" or "humanity". SETH APPOINTED From the Hebrew שֵׁת (Šēt). put," "anointed," "compensation," or "appointed." ENOSH MAN FRAIL MORTAL Hebrew: אֱנוֹשׁ ʾĔnōš; "mortal man ENOSH MAN FRAIL MISERABLE Hebrew is אנוש (enosh, Strong's #583), meaning "man." This word/name comes from the root אנש (A.N. Sh, Strong's #605) meaning "mortal" in the sense of weak and sick. The word/name enosh is closely related to the Hebrew word איש (iysh, Strong's #376) also meaning "man." KENAN ACQUIRE Kenan (also spelled Qenan, Kaynan or Cainan) (Hebrew: קֵינָן MAHALALEL ONE WHO SHINES The root of מהלל is הלל (ha-lal, Strong's #1984) and means "to shine." This can be the shining of a light such as from a flame or the moon, but figuratively the shining of a person’s character such as his fame or pride. From this root comes the word מהלל (ma-ha-lal, Strong's #4110) meaning "shining" or "one who shines." The second word is אל (eyl, Strong's #410), which literally means "mighty one," but is often transliterated as "El." The meaning of the name מהללאל can be "The shining of El or "The shining one of El." JARED ONE WHO DESCENDS Biblical Names the meaning of the name Jered is: Ruling, coming down. Jared is a traditionally masculine name with Hebrew roots. It comes from יָרֶד (Yared) or יֶרֶד (Yered) meaning "descent" Enoch Inaugurated, TrainedEtymologyFrom the root חנך (hanak), to inaugurate or train.

LAMECH LOWLY Lamech (/ˈleɪmɪk/;[1] Hebrew: לֶמֶךְ Lémeḵ, in pausa לָמֶךְ Lā́meḵ) Lowly, possible interpretation is that this name is the verb מוך (mok, Strong's #4134) meaning "low" and prefixed by the letter ל meaning "to" - "to be low." NOAH REST REPOSE (נחַ) in Hebrew. It is most likely of Babylonian origin from the word "nukhu" meaning repose or rest
Well this one is very disappointing if this is not true, IK alot of Christians will believe the 1st thing they hear online without researching it 1st, but thats why we must go to The Early Apostolic Church Fathers who learned from the Apostles themselves, & find the truth on the traditions of the early church. Then see if those traditions were held by other church fathers after them. Bc alot of protestant Christians dnt even kno when the books of the Bible were canonized, but its the traditions that makes this possible. As some Christians will say why do I need the church fathers when i have the Bible 2day, 🤦🏻♂️ its bc of those traditions of the church fathers is the only reason we have the same Bible 2day. So basically we must go back, & see if this was even taught in the early church, & not take Michael Jones word for it . No offense to IP he is a very good researcher, but it doesn't mean u should just take his word for it 1st hand, even though he is probably right on this one to, we must go back ourselves to read, & find the truth on what r the true meanings on biblical names... Thank u & God bless u all
There is no infallible list: As Professor of Canon Law, Fr. George Nedungatt, Ph.D., observed in 2010, it may be your personal belief that there have been 21 ecumenical councils, but “no authoritative church magisterium established this canon.” (JTS, 71, 3, (p.658)) The First Vatican Council declared: “The books the church holds to be sacred and canonical not because she subsequently approved them by her authority after they had been composed by unaided human skill, nor simply because they contain revelation without error, but because being written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, they have God as their author, and were as such committed to the church.”
@@ThisBoiDraws my friend what argument are u parroting🤣 Do you want to debate the biblical Canon? Bc you're going to have to bring more than just one person "opinion" to backup historical information. Bc u do realize that there were other books being read to. How did the church know what books were forgeries, & what books were the true inspired word of God? Do u really want to have this debate with me. Bc I just need to warn u, you're going to get upset when u find out the Canon was never 66 books ever .. Because this didn't happen until the 19th century through Bible societies.

@@Moshugaani ok. Exodus 29:39, One lamb you shall offer in the morning, and the other lamb you shall offer at evening. Numbers 28:3-4 a regular burnt offering each day. 4 Offer one lamb in the morning and the other at evening You see people making these 2 sacrifices daily. Elijah and the prophets of Ball in 1 Kings 18 was a burnt sacrifice at the evening sacrifice time. These 2 times of the day are reoccurring throughout scripture. With Elijah it says "midday passed" and it was getting close to the time of the evening sacrifice. This tells you that the evening sacrifice was before nightfall. The evening sacrifice was a sign for the people, of the messiah's death. Matthew says "From noon on, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon. 3pm was the time of the evening sacrifice. It was at this time Jesus utters the words "It is finished" from the cross. Then you can study the 4th watch. In the Roman clock, the night is split into 4 watches of the night. 6-9pm, 9-12am, 12-3am, 3-6am. 3am signifies the morning sacrifice, when the messiah would be resurrected from the dead. Proverbs 8:17 - I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me. Here are some biblical events that happen during the 4th watch. Jacob wrestled with God and met Him face to face just before entering into his destiny as Israel. Genesis 32:22-31 Moses led the Israelites across the Red Sea Exodus 14:25-26 God is looking for Samuel with a 3am wake-up call saying, "What is it Lord, here am I for you called me," 1 Samuel 3:5. Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night’” (Job 35:10) Peter and Jesus walk on water, Matthew 14:25-26 The angels appear to the shepherds in the field to announce the birth of the savior. Luke 2:8-14 The bridegroom woes His bride in the night hours, Song of Solomon, Matthew 25:1-13 “And in the middle of the night a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’ The women went to the tomb in the very early morning of the first day of the week. Lk 24 Jesus is resurrected from the dead, Matthew 28:1 Jesus 2nd coming "like a thief in the night I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star.” Rv 22:16 Men testify of being woken up consistently at 3am exactly. Not 3:01, not 2:59. As in my own experience also, this is an urgent call to prayer, and fasting sleep (waking early for giving thanks and intercession) once a week is also biblical in the new testament. So 3pm the evening sacrifice - Jesus dies 3am the morning sacrifice - Jesus alive again Now go read Genesis 1 again. Who is standing there in the midst of creation for the first 6 days? Notice the wording. It is not 'day and night', it is not 'morning and evening' It is exactly 'evening and morning' from the beginning. "There was evening, and there was morning, the first day" and repeated through the following 5 days of creation.

It honestly doesn't make sense when you're trying to debunk stuff like this. I mean so long as it doesn't contaminate the central message of the bible in any way, what is the point? And the source is just one scholar out of many and the fact that some of the names didn't even have meanings means he also is limited. Different scholars have different views alright. You pick this side doesn't necessarily mean the other person is wrong.

Why is it not a good explanation that the new testament was just written to reflect the old testament and to create Christianity where people believed in God yet respected the government? Not to sound conspiratorial
Who did the writing? Someone connected to the government? Then why did the government persecute the Christians for believing in their conspiracy? If not the government, why would someone write something that would help people respect the government? And if they wanted people to respect the government, why make Jesus above government?
As if governments are Christian, Christianty has, wait for it.... Separation of Church and State! Ever heard of separation of mosque and state? Nope, because if you want a religion where all these things are explicitly intermingled you go to Islam. Try to be more precise next time.
IP, your back must hurt from carrying christianity on your back. At this point, you have helped a lot of people in search for truth. Over the years, these evangelists and priests haven't really decisively answered my questions until I found your channel and theistic philosophy. And I really thank you for that. I really don't know understand why the vatican or the pope hire people like you and help christians in the defense of biblical doctrine, you should be much more popular. People are so eager to watch the pope on his balcony rather than these kinds of content and strengthen their faith.
I feel like you did not do your research because none of that was true. It literally depends on where you got the definitions of the meanings of the names. A popular google search will NOT give you the TRADITIONAL hebrew meanings. That's the big difference. Every culture has different names and different meanings to names. The meanings of the names are still the same as "man is appointed mortal sorrow blah blah blah" but I am open minded to the possibility I am wrong. I just don't buy that its not.
You don’t need to go Genesis 5 to find the gospel, go to Genesis 3. It’s easier to read and it doesn’t break your head. By reading the gospel it’s easy to infer that the woman’s seed appointed to crush the serpent’s head while simultaneously being bitten is Jesus.

*William Wilberforce* (24 August 1759 - 29 July 1833)[1] was a British politician, philanthropist and *leader of the movement to abolish the slave trade.* A native of Kingston upon Hull, Yorkshire, he began his political career in 1780, eventually becoming an independent Member of Parliament (MP) for Yorkshire (1784-1812). *In 1785, he became an evangelical Christian, which resulted in major changes to his lifestyle and a lifelong concern for reform.*
When I first heard this I looked up the names in a Google Hebrew names translator to verify. The definition of 9 of the 10 names was spot on, and one was questionable, but reasonable, and as a whole told the story of Jesus. That, my friends, is good enough for me! You look it up for yourself and realize that Jesus is truly Lord of Lords.
yea. Makes me think hes just anti trin
exactly which was was dodgy?
When I first heard this argument, it sounded so amazing that I wanted to believe it, but suspected there were some liberties taken with the translation. Thanks for clearing it up.
God’s Word is already astonishing in its revelations and has no need of extra inspiration from us.
@@swissapologetics I looked up Cainan which may be found in place of Kenan in some books. Guess what it means? Purchaser. To me it still makes sense.
@@bretmelton7116
The name Kenan (qê·nān; Strongs 7018) has the same root as qî·nāh (Strongs 7015) and qî·nāh means "lamentation".
It occurs for example here:
*Jer 7,29*
Cut off your hair and throw it away; take up a *lament* on the barren heights, for the Lord has rejected and abandoned this generation that is under his wrath.
Google the name Seth and Arabic. He is lying to you.
Words in Hebrew can mean many different things. I looked each of these names up individually and this “hidden message” is true. Enoch means “trained”. The name Enosh means “mortal, frail, or miserable”. Kenan means “to mourn, lament, or sorrow after”.
I looked them up on a completely independent source and the names translate as the claim states.
yep, the claim has always been in Hebrew as well. He forgets that. I have checked myself and they are right. This cat is a blasphemous, evil spreader of rumors. His entire focus is on making Christians look stupid. He thinks he is smarter than all of us lol AND CHUCK MISSLER hahhahahaha
@@Dmlaney source trust me bro?
Yes please provide your sources. I want this to be true as I believed it for so long, but If we are gonna claim it as truth we need to be able to site our sources
“He was despised and rejected- a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. We turned our backs on him and looked the other way. He was despised, and we did not care. Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all. He was oppressed and treated harshly, yet he never said a word. He was led like a lamb to the slaughter. And as a sheep is silent before the shearers, he did not open his mouth. Unjustly condemned, he was led away. No one cared that he died without descendants, that his life was cut short in midstream. But he was struck down for the rebellion of my people. He had done no wrong and had never deceived anyone. But he was buried like a criminal; he was put in a rich man’s grave. But it was the Lord’s good plan to crush him and cause him grief. Yet when his life is made an offering for sin, he will have many descendants. He will enjoy a long life, and the Lord’s good plan will prosper in his hands. When he sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he will be satisfied. And because of his experience, my righteous servant will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he will bear all their sins. I will give him the honors of a victorious soldier, because he exposed himself to death. He was counted among the rebels. He bore the sins of many and interceded for rebels.”
Isaiah 53:3-12 NLT
This was written around 700 years before Jesus came into the earth, yet it describes His life perfectly.
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16
God loves you so much and showed that by sending His Son to die for us so that we may inherit eternal life. We deserve hell but He gave us heaven through faith in Jesus. He took the punishment we deserved and by putting our faith in Him we can be saved. The Key To Eternal Life:

because if Jesus really rose from the dead it is the most important fact ever!
What I found after much research was this:
Adam - man
Seth - appointed or placed
Enosh - frailty
Kenan - acquire
Mahalalel - praise of God
Jared - he descends
Enoch - Dedicated, Trained
Methusaleh - One who was sent
Lamech - powerful or to make low
Noah - rest
So some of it does fit what people are saying based on my research but I do see some liberties taken to make it completely make sense. Either way, I don't really see myself using this as a tool to plant seeds with people. There's plenty of other places to do that.
Matthew Henry in his commentary wrote that Methuselah's name can mean 'he dies, there is a dart,' and 'sending forth' considering his death marks the beginning of the flood, it does indeed mark the beginning of a 'bringing forth' then it could be translated as 'his death shall bring'. Also, considering the obscure origins of these names no one can say with 100% certainty the definitions, even your cited 'expert.'
“Concerning Methuselah observe, 1. The signification of his name, which some think was prophetical, his father Enoch being a prophet. Methuselah signifies, he dies, or there is a dart, or, a sending forth, namely, of the deluge, which came the very year that Methuselah died. If indeed his name was so intended and so explained, it was fair warning to a careless world, a long time before the judgment came.”
From Matthew Henry’s commentary on Genesis 5. It is available online, for anyone who wants to double check.
The technical reason for rejecting this is that the name has the letters mem, tav, vav in that order. The root meaning 'death' is mem-vav-tav and regular grammar can conjugate this into a few different forms, such as mawet, mot, mutu, matti, etc...but metu would be outside of this understood structure. So that's why it is assumed to be a different root altogether.
I have a feeling that the names do mean something, and that it should point to Jesus. But just like their ages, the meaning of their names is probably lost to us now.
@Dakota Bledsoe No no no no. It's 2+2=Billy Bob Thornton, where I feel that Billy Bob Thornton is equal to the number 4, but I think that the numerological process that is needed to connect Billy Bob Thornton to the number 4 is lost to us. G? ☺️
Are the ages of the names lost to us? We know that they are older than the Hebrew Bible and likely a lot older than written text, like e.g. older than cuneiform. Exactly how old is not as important.
So you have a feeling, but do you have any evidence?
@@WhatYourPastorDidntTellYou Evidence? Why don’t u go take a dump and then study the used tp very closely…..will prove beyond all doubt that demanding “evidence” of other ppl’s opinions makes you an a$$hole
You're wrong on this IP. Eve literally says I will call him Seth because God has appointed me another son. We're supposed to know the connection to "appointed", not because it is the meaning of the word but through the meaning of the root of the word. I see another commenter has done all the hard work setting this out, so I won't repeat the details.
Yup seth means appointed or placed in every translation I checked...
Enosh means man as frail and mortal so yes mortal can be derived from that statement.
Chuck Missler had this in his teachings a long time ago. Good to see this again.
I know. I first heard this theory being propagated by him on a loony Charismatic channel, and I believed it at the time.

Can’t believe I have to defend God’s word to a fellow „christian brother“.
Serious question: Who are you working for? God? Or the enemy?
Actually we have a slightly different word meaning, which is even better and shows the beautiful hidden message that God put into his Holy Word!
Adam: Humankind
Seth: Appointed
Enosh: mortal
Kenan: lamentation
Mahalalel: The Shining one of God
Jared: descends / goes down
Enoch = to INAUGURATE people / to train as TO TEACH someone
Methusela = His Death Shall Bring
Lamech - For Humiliation
Noah - rest
You can very easily build the following sentence with it:
Humankind was appointed mortal lamentation, but the shining of God (must be God’s son, right?) shall go down (from heaven to earth, right?) to teach that his death shall bring, for humiliation, rest.
It’s even better!! By humiliating us before God by repenting, our sins are being forgiven!
Here you have THE TOTAL PROOF, that I’m not lying! With sources!!
The names and their meanings:
1. Adam = Humankind
Coming directly from the Hebrew word אדם (ʾadam), meaning "man" or "humankind," the name Adam was the name of the first man created in Genesis. Interestingly, in Genesis 1:26, the word אדם (ʾadam) is clearly plural and means "humankind," as the accompanying verbs are plural and two people are created as a result.
Source: bam.sites.uiowa.edu/hello/adam
2. Seth = Appointed
Meaning: Set, Appointed, Foundation
Etymology: From the verb שית (shyt), to set or place firm.
When Eve names Seth she says, "God has APPOINTED (שית) me another offspring..". (Genesis 4:25), and traditionally readers have understood that therefore the name Seth must come from the verb „appointed“ (שית).
Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Seth.html
3. Enosh = mortal
The name in Hebrew is אנוש (enosh, Strong's #583), meaning "man." This word/name comes from the root אנש (A.N.Sh, Strong's #605) meaning "MORTAL" in the sense of weak and sick.
Source: www.ancient-hebrew.org/names/Enosh.htm
4. Kenan = lamentation
Noun קינה (qina) denotes a kind of sad poem; a DIRGE OR LAMENTATION, which both had to be fabricated and could, presumably, pierce a person's soul like a spear (which is an obvious Biblical figure of speech; see Luke 2:35). The denominative verb קונן (qonen) means to do a dirge, which could be either to chant or compose one.
The name Kenan may even be construed to come specifically from the verb קונן (qonen), to chant a dirge (Ezekiel 27:32, 1 Samuel 1:17), from the noun קינה (qina), LAMENTATION or sad poem which is sung (Jeremiah 7:19, Ezekiel 2:10).
Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Adam.html
5. Mahalalel = The Shining one of God
In Hebrew, this name is written as מהללאל (ma-ha-la-ley-eyl, Strong's #4111) and is a combination of two words, מהלל and אל. The root of מהלל is הלל (ha-lal, Strong's #1984) and means "to shine." This can be the shining of a light such as from a flame or the moon, but figuratively the shining of a person’s character such as his fame or pride. From this root comes the word מהלל (ma-ha-lal, Strong's #4110) meaning "shining" or "ONE WHO SHINES."
The second word is אל (eyl, Strong's #410), which literally means "mighty one," but is often transliterated as "El." The meaning of the name מהללאל can be "The shining of El or "The shining one of El."
Source: www.ancient-hebrew.org/names/Mahalaleel.htm
'El' is hebrew for 'God'!
The Shining one of God!
6. Jared = descends / goes down
The name Jared comes from the verb ירד (yarad) a very common verb meaning TO GO DOWN, DESCEND, decline.
Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Jared.html
7. Enoch = to INAUGURATE people / to train as TO TEACH someone
Meaning
Inaugurated, Trained
Etymology
From the root חנך (hanak), to inaugurate or train.
Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Enoch.html
8. Methusela = His Death Shall Bring
Meaning: When He Is Dead It Shall Be Sent, Man Of A Javelin
Etymology: From (1) the noun מת (mat), man, or מות (mut), death, and (2) the verb שלח (shalah), to send or let go.
For a meaning of the name Methuselah, Jones' Dictionary of Old Testament Proper Names reads מות (mut) for the first part and translates the whole name with When He Is Dead It Shall Be Sent.
‚To send‘ would be the same as ‚to bring‘
Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Methuselah.html
9. Lamech = For Humiliation
Meaning:
Strong Man or FOR HUMILIATION
Etymology:
From an otherwise unused root that means to be strong and robust.
From (1) the particle ל (le), to or towards, and (2) the verb מוך (muk), be low.
Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Lamech.html
10. Noah = rest
Meaning: Rest
Etymology: From the verb נוח (nuah), to rest.
The verb נוח (nuah) means to come to rest or to cease interference. Noun נחת (nahat) means quietness or a quiet attitude. Noun ניחח (nihoah) or ניחוח (nihoah) means a quieting or soothing. Noun הנחה (hanaha) means a giving of rest. Noun מנוח (manoah) describes a place or condition of rest. Noun מנוחה (menuha) or מנחה (menuha) means resting place, or quietness.
Source: www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Noah.html

Here you have it:
Humankind was appointed mortal lamentation, but the shining of God (must be God’s son, right?) shall go down (from heaven to earth, right?) to teach that his death shall bring, for humiliation (repentance before God), rest.

That they will all have Christian unity and that their focus will be on God getting all the glory and rejoice in any and all work for God.
10
You can pray that God prevents any technical or logistical or legal or any type of problems for their ministry, but if they have any such issues/problems that God will help them resolve/fix and totally solve and remove these problems.

I wish you’d have more transparency with this kind of thing, because you should’ve pointed out how one of your own videos pushes this narrative (in your Genesis series).
Bruh the space balls reference, I’m dying dude.
Any commentaries on Genesis that you would recommend?
Lifeway , the makers of logos, have a free study bible you can get on your computer or phone. It's not exactly a commentary but all of the notes for Genesis and the rest of the Torah were done by Dr Mike Heiser. I know inspiring philosophy has cited Heiser's work quite a bit.
The birth of Seth when Adam new Eve again . Eve said ; God has apointed me a son to replace the seed of Abel who Cain slew.
Unlike Cain , who was a man Gotten from the LORD, Seth was a son appointed by God.
Meaning the apointed by God is through the linage of Seth
Adam and Eve never existed though.
Try again.
But Seth does mean appointed/designated and Enosh mortal/fragile!
While there has been misunderstanding with this concept of the names of the Noah's genealogy talking about christ before he was born, there is some truth here when it comes to the concept of Jesus begin predicted and ordained since the beginning. For instance if you go to the Torah or just the old testament and you look at it in it's accurate Hebrew translation, the first verse of the text does spell out Christ's mission. Because every letter in hebrew has a meaning. The first word in the text in Hebrew roughly translates to "The son of god will be destroyed by the fathers works/hand on his mark/cross."
This stands out to me because it reminds me of the text in Isaiah. Specifically Isaiah 46:9-10; "Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure."
So there some truth to the fact that God declared Christ coming before he came. I do think we should look into the meaning of the names in Noah's genealogy though. It would interesting to understand what they mean as well.
No, the first word means “In the beginning.” I have no idea where you got all that other stuff.
Nowhere in the letters of first word of the text can it be translated as “The Son of God is destroyed by his own hand on the cross.”
Bereshith beyt-resh-aleph-shin-yud-tav =
House-head-chief-tooth-hand-mark. There's no "son" in any letter, ntm G-d, destroy, or cross. This nonsense started with Jeff Benner. Professional scholarship does not support his views. I really don't know why Christians feel some need to find some hidden something to validate their beliefs. It seems to me, if it is truly valid, then the plain written text in its plain simple meaning and truth should be more than sufficient. It doesn't serve anyone by making up such things that really aren't there.
@@disguisedcentennial835 I'm talking about if you spell out the symbolic meaning of every letter in Hebrew of the word for 'beginning', you can derive the sentence I said in the previous comm. Every letter in Hebrew has numerology and symbolism attached to it. There's alot I could explain about what I mean, but I think this video explains better what I'm talking about. He goes into better detail than I can.
m.th-cam.com/video/RmnUkNT55gU/w-d-xo.html
@@Axer01250 Even with how you put it, the letters dont make sense. Beyt does mean house and Resh does mean head, but it is more than just each individual letter. Many words in Hebrew are made up of two Hebrew letters. For instance the letters bety-resh together make the word 'bar', which can roughly means 'son'. The letters alpeh-shin together can roughly mean 'fire' or 'destruction'. That's why in the torah the burning Bush in Hebrew is called the aish sanai. Aish, meaning fire, coming from putting aleph and shin together. And while aleph does mean chief, it only means that because not only is it the first letter in the Hebrew alphabet, it also represents God as being the first being. The word Elohim begins with and Aleph, which as you said means chief. Also yod-tau together roughly translates to mean 'time' as well.
So what the word Bereshith really means when you spell it out is this. Beyt-resh:"The Son(of god)", Alpeh-shin: "Will be destroyed", Yod-Tau: "At the appointed time." So it seems we were both wrong, because this is what is actually means. Thanks for calling me out, I wouldn't have noticed that before.
@@sonyyung5510 Thank you for the pleasant dialog. You initially stated the correlation between individual letters. Combining two letters together to form the word you want is cheating. We can combine any two letters together to get the text to say virtually anything. That is not a valid methodology. Secondly, Ben is the hebrew word for son. Bar is Babylonian Aramaic. So additionally, now we are allowing to cross over language boundaries as well? I'm sorry but this is a far stretch, that really has no linguistic foundation. It holds no weight even in a PaRDeS interpretation. This method doesn't even hold true to the rules of traditional hebrew gematria. It's really more of an eisegesis than anything. I'm more curious as to why Christians have to make, and hold on to such claims to prove some sort of pre-existing christ figure, if it's not already pointed to in the plain text of scripture itself?

Love the Spaceballs reference.
Looking into it myself, I got the impression that they're more names referring to the trajectory of Cain and Seth based on how they represented improper and proper worship. Cain's Enoch comes first but Seth's Enoch comes after Praising God and someone going "down." Jared compares to Irad which might specifically be talking about Eridu suggesting God only gives knowledge after we humble ourselves in worship of Him while Cain represents Man taking Knowledge for himself according to himself, eventually abandoning God and seeking divine meaning your own way until you are brought down and scattered. Jabal, Jubal and Tubal-Cain etymologically all having the same base of Yod-Beth-Lamed that relate to flowing (sound from a horn, nomads over a region, water in a river) and "Tubal-Cain" likely meaning some kind of refinement, perfection or seasoning of Cain. So the ultimate fruit of Cain is being washed away in the Flood. The tradition of Naamah as Noah's Wife even suggesting her name of Pleasantness showing God's mercy even toward Cain by preserving the Good of his violent brood on the Ark.
Then again I also think most of the big Genesis ages might be "reverse Gamatria" considering how Hebrew Numbers were just the Alphabet with different values. So convert the huge age to the Hebrew alphanumeric rendering and then see what the semantic range of that "word" is
Well done, Adam!
From the title alone I knew that this thing about the names was the topic
They are not getting the meaning from the name in those instances but the root words like Methuselah or Methushelach; Math: Male, man from Mathay: When? Shelach: missile, weapon, sprout from Shalach: To send, appoint. But the Methu might be from the same root as moth (to die, death) so methu shalach death will send or appoint aka death will bring. There is a thought that the mek in lamek might be muk meaning to be low or depressed aka despair. Enosh: Man, mankind from Anash properly to be mortal. Anash: To be weak, sick aka mortal. Kenan or Qenan from the same as qayin: spear which is from the same as qinah: lamentation aka sorrow. Mahalalel: praise of God. Mahalal: praise from Halal: to be boastful, to praise aka Blessed. El: God, in pl. gods. Enoch from Chanok from Chanak: to train up, dedicate aka teaching. Seth from Shith: To put, set aka appointed.
Know that In the last days many mockers and scoffers shall come. Because they have not a love for the truth, God shall send them strong delusion
Seeing plenty of that right now.
Nice, this was a very interesting video. Lamech, probably means hero, but even Scholars who are trained in the Hebrew language have stated that they're not sure if that's what it means.
Methuselah, for sure it is clearly unknown what it means
I don't understand how other religious beliefs outdate the beliefs of Judaism and, in a sense, Christianity when the Bible says that the Creator of all things created man and woman?
You should consider researching these name again. It's not difficult to verify this claim as Hebrew word roots usually have multiple meanings. I just did a quick search and easily verified ALL of them! This is not the only "messaging" found in the Torah. Check out what has been discovered using the pictographic meaning of the paleo-hebrew characters used in the original manuscript of the Torah. The language was designed for transmitting hidden messages! One astonishing example is the tetragrammaton YHWH. The pictographic meaning of the four letters forms a sequence "hand", behold, nail, behold.. The very sacred name of God describes the nails and the hands of His Son sacrificed on the cross!! The Gospel is in His name!!!
One thing that I've found interesting is that Lamech in Hebrew is the letters in the word "King" mixed up. (Lamech, למך -- King מלך)
What does that mean? Heck if I know, but it's cool.
I looked these up one by one and it does make a coherent statement. Just use Hebrew name meaning search.
"Christians, we need to follow what scholars say."

🤣😂🤣 I'm laughing but I so wanted this to be true! Oh Chuck Missler where did he ever get this stuff from?😭
Yes. I heard this from Missler, as well, but wasn’t able to verify his definition of the names. “Neat, if true” was how I viewed it.
There is an app called “The Blue Letter Bible” that allows you to look at the Hebrew and Greek words in the Bible.
“Seth” *can* mean “appointed” based on the root. “Methuselah”, however, means “man of the dart”, not “his death shall bring”.
I did a lot of digging on it a few months ago. I’m pretty sure he got it from some “hebrew expert” who says stuff like “I’ve been teaching hebrew for 30 years” on his website and yet has zero formal hebrew education and just makes things up as he goes. I can’t remember the name off the top of my head, though.
Dont listen to some self appointed " expert " but rather do your own research. The gospel is declared in Genesis chapter 5, and many other places.
google most of it on google translate using the KJV and most of it is spot on
Thanks
Thank you for the donation.
The translations do seem to pan out. However, my issue with this comes from the fact that the word order appears to be wrong.
Biblical Hebrew uses a sentence structure of verb-subject-object (SVO) word order, whereas English, and 42% of world languages, use subject-verb-object (SVO). For example, Genesis 5:24 transliterated reads: "Walked Enoch with God and he was not for took him God."
As a side note, Modern Hebrew does follow SVO.
If this was a hidden message written by a Biblical Hebrew author to a Biblical Hebrew audience, wouldn't we expect to see a hidden message using the word order of that language? If so, we would expect to see the genealogy look something like: Seth, Adam, Enosh, Kenan, Jared, Enoch, Mahalel, Methuselah, Lamech, Noah.
If this is instead to be a hidden message by a Biblical Hebrew author to a future, later audience (to which I would say "Well-played!"), I would find the notion, while not impossible, highly improbable.
Also, for fun, I tried this with a subject-object-verb (SOV) word order, the most used at 45% of world languages, and found I had to divide Methuselah into its two parts in order to make the sentence conform properly. This gave me a genealogical list of: Adam, Enosh, Kenon, Seth, Mahalel, Enoch, Jared, Meth, Lamech, Noah, Selah.
Now, granted, I am not a scholar of this subject in any sense and all this is what I have gleaned from a few hours of internet search. So, I would be most grateful for the thoughts of any actual Biblical Hebrew scholars.
I would also be most interested if this "hidden message" also appears, and is as clear, in any other languages aside from English. Similar to my point above, if a hidden massage is written to people beyond the immediate audience, then it should be able to be read by people of multiple languages, not just one.
Ive got a question. Should we call our lord Yeshua instead of Jesus. i heard this one guy preaching that I'm sinning and I should call him Yeshua
Genesis 4:25 KJVS
[25] And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath APPOINTED me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
@InspiringPhilosphy I had this revelation over 10 years ago and the message is true because it actually was fulfilled. This agent of deceit must not be given any clout. And to go further in that geneliology you can find when the flood came and that Methuselah was actually holding back the flood because his name means: "his death shall bring" he died the same year if not the same day the flood came its all there for you to do the thinking yourself
Hello, I am a new Christian and I have a very important question. When did the doctrine of the trinity become accepted as Christian theology? I have heard that this one early church father named Polycarp wasn’t a trinitarian and yet he was a deciple of John the apostle. Could this mean that Christians originally didn’t accept the trinity? I know that Christians early on believe the divinity of Christ, but I’m not so sure about the trinity.
Trinity in simple terms means three persons in One God. I can provide you over 30 individual verses of the new testament where in each single verse all the three persons of the trinity are clearly mentioned thus giving us the evidence that they are three distinct persons in the ONE God Head and also all three divine.
So, trinity is clearly in the Bible.
Can you do a response on "the hidden" meaning of the first word in the Bible?
There are no 'hidden meanings' in the Bible. Period. It wasn't written that way, and it's not meant to be used that way.

Hess is one Scholar. Missler is an expositor of high caliber. Might want to review this in more depth, than just denouncing it because it's poorly presented on TikTok.
Agree.
I miss Chuck
Missler didn’t know Hebrew. His thoughts on this in particular are nonsense. Literally anyone in their first class in seminary will tell you this idea is nonsense. You’re welcome to have whatever opinion you want of Missler but he most certainly was wrong about this and most certainly didn’t know Hebrew. If you want an in-depth video, I did one called “Is Jesus in the Genealogies of Genesis 5?” on my channel.
@@WhatYourPastorDidntTellYou
Thanks for the info.
I will look further into this. My first reaction was strong denial, backed up with lots of info. I deleted my original reply to you and will do further study.
I appreciate the time you've taken to do the video and the thoughts and replying to me.
Part of my intial response to you is still valid. _"Many scholars/experts disagree with each other, so what hope do we lay people have? Not much. I think we need to pick a side, and decide to be content with what we choose. With one caveat, unless it effects salvation or negatively refelcts on Jesus, then it probably doesn't matter much. As they say, the context is clear and matters more. "_
I Concur, look up Misslers teachings on Genesis 5 and than do your own research, I know I did🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Chuck Missler is where I heard it from. I'm sure it was accidental, though, and not intentional.
I came to say the same.. And he seemed very sincere.
Missler would usually point to Acts 17:11 and advise listeners to check out what he says by studying Scripture.
What do you mean by “accidental”? Like sure he didn’t purposely give people the wrong information but he most certainly didn’t know Hebrew and yet acted like he did. He’s popular for telling people “cool bible facts” without thinking critically about them first.
@@cavalier973 do you think it’s okay to do what he did, though? He knew very well that laymen didn’t have the resources or critical thinking to vet what he would say. Ellen G. White said the same thing when she would give her visions. She’d say “I have a vision of X but don’t take my word for it. Compare it with scripture”…and now we have the entire sect of 7th day adventism.
@@WhatYourPastorDidntTellYou Chuck Missler never said that he was having visions. He was offering an interpretation of a Scripture passage. “Here is what I think/believe about this passage, but don’t make my beliefs your beliefs without checking them against Scripture.” You can do that by reviewing the writings of scholars on the passage.
There is not, to my knowledge, a Church of the Mystical Knowledge of Missler.
Be careful what you speak in internet : if you are right, people will appreciate you, if not u r cursed.
There's too much "we don't know, maybe means something similar, but can't be sure" to say "this argument is debunked."
Adam means dirt/earth, eve means life
Your source doesn't give all legitimate readings of these names; as a Hebrew speaker, I think there is a room for the case that guy is trying to make. His argument is still weak, to my taste, and probably even slightly pathetic, but here we have enough coincidences not to mock it, at least.
i have seen your other videos of you debunking the similarities between jesus and Krishna, jesus and horus, can u do a video on Sumerian mythology, they have 3 gods anu , enlil and enki, and the old testament os similar to enlil's personality in Sumerian mythology. Enlil planed to wipe humanity with flood but enki whispered ro his follower to build an ark to survive the flood, his name was uthnapshim, this flood theory is similar to Noah's ark. But my question is , is udeo christian a culmination of stories pf older mythologies ?
Did you check other sources other than Richard Hess?
That seems odd for gods who protect their devotees to be characterized as flying projectiles, wouldn't shields be more apt?
I think it’s where the Muslims through MadMo got the idea that allah shoots stars like missiles at the jinn who eavesdrop what’s said in heaven 🤷♂️
I guess Methuselah's parents did not have the same theological ideas we have.

Hey IP, I have a question for you. If there were humans before Adam and Eve, as well as humans that were outside of their lineage, then how does this not affect the doctrine that Adam’s sin affected all of humanity (original sin)? Because since these other humans were not related to Adam they wouldn’t have inherited Adam’s sin. Therefore, there would be humans with no original sin living alongside humans with original sin.
I've wrestled with this question and can't find or come up with a satisfying answer.
I think the answer would contain these points, at least:
1)"Where there is no Law, there is no sin." - So original sin isn't something that is passed down through a blood line.
2)Adam and Eve were chosen as man's first representatives or "priest kings" and therefore their representation imputed the curse on all. Because of them, no man has access to the tree of life. Loss of that access is why we die according to Gen. 3:22
3)Not only did sin come into the world but also Law. For the first time God's will was known and as time went on that knowledge not only spread but mankind's sin did as well.
I don't know if that is the full answer but my guess is that his answer would contain some of these points.
If there were other humans they would have been wiped out in the flood anyway.
By the time of the flood only Noah and his family were pure
For those Christians who believe in evolution they also have the tough question of how to deal with original sin
@@John14-6... not really.
You can believe in Evolution and Creation.
It’s called the Gap theory. (Not to be confused with the God of the gaps)
@@daduzadude1547 Yes I know that some Christians believe in it but if they do how can they justify original sin if they believe humans evolved slowly from apes?

Is there evidence that these stories were written around Moses' time and not much later?
@Dakota Bledsoe Mu question was about the dating of Genesis relative to the book(s) of Samuel and the life of Moses.
I agree that they are all ancient, but how ancient.
>From the tribe of Judah but for some reason Samuel did not put together that Saul was from the tribe of Benjamin.
What does this sentence mean? Saul is called a benjaminite in the books of Samuel, the royal bloodline of Israel begins with David, from the tribe of Judah. I honestly don't understand what you meant there.
@@tafazzi-on-discord They are referring to the prophecy that the scepter would remain with Judah, and you are right, this starts with David. Saul was kind of an example of what the people could get if they chased after a king.
@@OnTheThirdDay Genesis would have been an oral tradition as literacy was a much later development. It could well stretch back thousands of years this way, particularly Gen 1-11. It is clear that the people of Moses's time had some scribes because at various points they write things, but their physical texts would not have survived till today so we cannot verify this.
@@tafazzi-on-discord The prophesy in Genesis speaks of a scepter coming out of Judah and it will not go until Shiloh comes.
This is interpretted to be a messianic prophesy.
The question is that if a scepter is supposed to come out of Judah then why does it seem good to choose a Benjaminite (Saul) as king.
I've heard this one before. It's not as bad as the typical Nephilim/Enoch conspiracy theories, which I assumed you were attacking here.
There's a lot of really old living things named after Methuselah.
IP, you're opinion on prophet of zod?
I was more interested in the age numbers of those people in gen 5. It has to contain hidden message.
It is generally accepted that the age numbers are a form of gematria. Hebrew numerology. Another ancient works called the Sumerian King's list traces its list of King's from creation on and it lists the exact same number as the genealogy in Genesis. The difference is the age of these kings which can be at least as high as 15000 years old.
So, the numbers aren't believed by scholars to be literal ages but rather a symbolic meaning.
That's something we are unlikely to unlock without further discoveries. We can detect patterns of 2, 5, 7, 16, 25, 60 and the like but without the cultural context we cannot say what each number and the various permutations mean.
@@jamesnicholson4652 #2 see Exodus, #4 see Numbers, #5 see Deuteronomy #6 see Joshua, #7 see Judges, #8 Ruth.... Numbers mean things? Observe for yourself. One way is to observe the text of like referenced verses in the Bible (IE 6:6 verses). I know, impossible! One example is a coincidence -- 1000's of examples lead you to see the evidence. Compare the middle verses of the Bible (Psalm 103:1-2) to smallest and exact middle chapter of the Bible (Psalm 117). It's all a precise pattern of evidence. amazingword

According to Strong dictionary Seth doesn’t mean substitute but substituted (which is mentioned that comes from another word where among the other meanings there is a word to appoint). So you are wrong
Any thoughts on science finding the name of God(YHWH) in our DNA 🧬 I heard that recently.
I thought you were going to say something about there being a partial reversal of names showing an ascent towards God in Seth's line contrary to the descent from God in Cain's.
Does anyone know where this came from? These false translations ?
It is easy to prove it isn't possible because the Hebrew language does not say this, at all. This was popularized by Chuck Missler, who admitted couldn't read Hebrew.The gospel begins in Genesis 3:16, it is simple to understand and easy to read. There are no hidden messages in scripture. The Bible is clear. Just pick it up and read it. Find Christ, come to Him and Him alone for salvation.
The first time I heard this. Was from the God in a nutshell project. Trey Smith says some interesting stuff but more often than not. It is just historically wrong. I fell for this I'll have too do some research. But you are pretty good at research.
Adam wasnt Cains biological father, the serpent was. 1 John 3:12
Bit of a stretch to suggest 1 John 3:12 is speaking biologically, when not only are lots of people described as 'of the devil/evil one' in Scripture, but literally just 2-4 verses earlier (1 John 3:8-10) in the very same passage you're quoting, it's established that 'everyone' who sins is of the devil, and that there are only children of God and children of the Devil. Bit of a stretch to then suggest that two verses later in the same paragraph, when Cain is 'of the Devil', it suddenly means biologically.
Yeah, no
@@hiz-n-lowz1577 Honestly, a short Bible-based response to the immediate problem I raised would suffice. Unless you're here to advocate that everyone who sins (per 1 John 3:8) is a biological descendant of Eve and Satan. It's a simple problem that I trust is easily refuted.
@@Mic1904 I only mentioned Cain being the offspring of the serpent.. Matthew 23:29-33
Anyone is free to sin or to not sin as they so choose.
@@hiz-n-lowz1577 That's the point. You 'only mention' Cain as being the offspring of the serpent (and you then take this to mean biologically), when the very passage itself (as well as the rest of Scripture) makes it clear that *all* who sin are offspring of the Devil (and, indeed, there are only Children of God and Children of the Devil). Rendering your take on Cain entirely baseless.
The message is there. Granted, there are primary and secondary meanings.
Great effort was made in concealing the message with your alternate options and secondary meanings. Yet, I invite the viewers to do their own resarch and confirm what is true. It does not end there. There are messages in geneology all the way to Jesus.

Well this one is very disappointing if this is not true, IK alot of Christians will believe the 1st thing they hear online without researching it 1st, but thats why we must go to The Early Apostolic Church Fathers who learned from the Apostles themselves, & find the truth on the traditions of the early church.
Then see if those traditions were held by other church fathers after them.
Bc alot of protestant Christians dnt even kno when the books of the Bible were canonized, but its the traditions that makes this possible.
As some Christians will say why do I need the church fathers when i have the Bible 2day, 🤦🏻♂️ its bc of those traditions of the church fathers is the only reason we have the same Bible 2day.
So basically we must go back, & see if this was even taught in the early church, & not take Michael Jones word for it .
No offense to IP he is a very good researcher, but it doesn't mean u should just take his word for it 1st hand, even though he is probably right on this one to, we must go back ourselves to read, & find the truth on what r the true meanings on biblical names...

There is no infallible list: As Professor of Canon Law, Fr. George Nedungatt, Ph.D., observed in 2010, it may be your personal belief that there have been 21 ecumenical councils, but “no authoritative church magisterium established this canon.” (JTS, 71, 3, (p.658))
The First Vatican Council declared:
“The books the church holds to be sacred and canonical not because she subsequently approved them by her authority after they had been composed by unaided human skill, nor simply because they contain revelation without error, but because being written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, they have God as their author, and were as such committed to the church.”
@@ThisBoiDraws my friend what argument are u parroting🤣
Do you want to debate the biblical Canon?
Bc you're going to have to bring more than just one person "opinion" to backup historical information.
Bc u do realize that there were other books being read to.
How did the church know what books were forgeries, & what books were the true inspired word of God?
Do u really want to have this debate with me. Bc I just need to warn u, you're going to get upset when u find out the Canon was never 66 books ever ..
Because this didn't happen until the 19th century through Bible societies. So the 66 book bibles or not even 150 yrs old...

You see people making these 2 sacrifices daily. Elijah and the prophets of Ball in 1 Kings 18 was a burnt sacrifice at the evening sacrifice time. These 2 times of the day are reoccurring throughout scripture. With Elijah it says "midday passed" and it was getting close to the time of the evening sacrifice.

The evening sacrifice was a sign for the people, of the messiah's death.

Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night’” (Job 35:10)
Peter and Jesus walk on water, Matthew 14:25-26
The angels appear to the shepherds in the field to announce the birth of the savior. Luke 2:8-14
The bridegroom woes His bride in the night hours, Song of Solomon, Matthew 25:1-13
“And in the middle of the night a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’
The women went to the tomb in the very early morning of the first day of the week. Lk 24
Jesus is resurrected from the dead, Matthew 28:1
Jesus 2nd coming "like a thief in the night
I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star.” Rv 22:16
Men testify of being woken up consistently at 3am exactly. Not 3:01, not 2:59. As in my own experience also, this is an urgent call to prayer, and fasting sleep (waking early for giving thanks and intercession) once a week is also biblical in the new testament.
So 3pm the evening sacrifice - Jesus dies
3am the morning sacrifice - Jesus alive again
Now go read Genesis 1 again. Who is standing there in the midst of creation for the first 6 days?
Notice the wording. It is not 'day and night', it is not 'morning and evening'
It is exactly 'evening and morning' from the beginning.
"There was evening, and there was morning, the first day" and repeated through the following 5 days of creation.
Unfortunately this isn’t true
You're 100% wrong we as Christians must follow the Bible not what scholars say
You are wrong. The names translate as follows
1. Adam (אָדָם) - "man" or "humanity"
2. Seth (שֵׁת) - "appointed" or "placed"
3. Enosh (אֱנוֹשׁ) - "mortal" or "frailty"
4. Kenan (קֵינָן) - "sorrow" or "lamentation"
5. Mahalalel (מַהֲלַלְאֵל) - "praise of God"
6. Jared (יֶרֶד) - "descent" or "shall come down"
7. Enoch (חֲנוֹךְ) - "dedicated" or "teaching"
8. Methuselah (מְתוּשֶׁלַח) - "when he dies, it shall be sent" or "his death shall bring"
9. Lamech (לֶמֶךְ) - "despairing" or "hope"
10. Noah (נֹחַ) - "rest" or "comfort"
If you disagree copy the Hebrew names and paste them into a translator or Google you will see he's wrong.
how can i do this please tell.
@@IVBW-by8lf download a translator then Google who the characters in Genesis 5 are and their Hebrew names take the Hebrew names and go translate them to English
Thanks for the Spaceballs clip in addition to dismantling this weird code fantasy
It honestly doesn't make sense when you're trying to debunk stuff like this. I mean so long as it doesn't contaminate the central message of the bible in any way, what is the point?
And the source is just one scholar out of many and the fact that some of the names didn't even have meanings means he also is limited.
Different scholars have different views alright. You pick this side doesn't necessarily mean the other person is wrong. You could look into it carefully and seek out how they came to that conclusion rather than just debunking it with the 1 book you've there.
❤❤love your videos though
This has been debunct a while ago...
By whom? I'd like to check that out.
Pharisee leaven
Why is it not a good explanation that the new testament was just written to reflect the old testament and to create Christianity where people believed in God yet respected the government? Not to sound conspiratorial
Who did the writing? Someone connected to the government? Then why did the government persecute the Christians for believing in their conspiracy? If not the government, why would someone write something that would help people respect the government?
And if they wanted people to respect the government, why make Jesus above government?
The new testament didn't create Christians but to edify Christians already made
As if governments are Christian, Christianty has, wait for it.... Separation of Church and State! Ever heard of separation of mosque and state? Nope, because if you want a religion where all these things are explicitly intermingled you go to Islam. Try to be more precise next time.
@@universalflamethrower6342 yup, and same applies to Atheist.
They, like the Muslims don’t separate Church from State
Christian tinfoil hats are especially blessed.
Why would I listen to someone who believes evolution
Dude, I just one by one googled the meaning of like 4 of the names and all were correct for the secret message. So wtf you talking about?
IP, your back must hurt from carrying christianity on your back.
At this point, you have helped a lot of people in search for truth. Over the years, these evangelists and priests haven't really decisively answered my questions until I found your channel and theistic philosophy. And I really thank you for that.
I really don't know understand why the vatican or the pope hire people like you and help christians in the defense of biblical doctrine, you should be much more popular. People are so eager to watch the pope on his balcony rather than these kinds of content and strengthen their faith.
I had a hunch that this was Bull
I feel like you did not do your research because none of that was true. It literally depends on where you got the definitions of the meanings of the names. A popular google search will NOT give you the TRADITIONAL hebrew meanings. That's the big difference. Every culture has different names and different meanings to names. The meanings of the names are still the same as "man is appointed mortal sorrow blah blah blah" but I am open minded to the possibility I am wrong. I just don't buy that its not.
Don't listen to this guy, I have researched them independently, and yes they do lay out the salvation story.
