Genesis 5 records the generations of Adam through Seth to Noah. The genealogy repeatedly follows the pattern of birth, years lived, children, and death, showing the fulfillment of the death sentence introduced after the fall. Against that repeated refrain stands Enoch, who walks with God and is taken by God. The chapter ends with Noah, whose name is connected to hope of comfort concerning the cursed ground.
