| | And it came to pass that Methuselah, the son of Enoch, was not taken, that the covenants of the Lord might be fulfilled, which he made to Enoch; for he truly covenanted with Enoch that Noah should be of the fruit of his loins. | | | And it came to pass, that Methuselah, the son of Enoch, was not taken, that the covenants of the Lord might be fulfilled which he made to Enoch; for he truly covenanted with Enoch, that Noah should be of the fruit of his loins. | | | And it came to pass that Methuselah prophesied that from his loins should spring all the kingdoms of the earth (through Noah), and he took glory unto himself. |

| | Methusela Lived How Long? |
| | Methuselah is the oldest person recorded in Scripture, and his name is often used today when referring to something or someone very old. | | | In verse 21 of that chapter, we learn that Methuselah was the son of Enoch. | | | In light of this information, we can take the age of Methuselah when Lamech was born (187), add to that Lamech’s age when he begot Noah (182) and the age of Noah when the floodwaters came (600), and determine that Methuselah was 969 years old the year the Flood occurred [187+182+600=969]. |

| | Further, when Methuselah died, not only did the angels eulogize him in heaven, but God delayed the punishment of the generation of the Flood for the seven days of bereavement. | | | And when Methuselah died, it was withheld for another seven days after his death to fulfill the period of mourning" (Avot d’Rabbi Natan 32:1). | | | He lived nearly a millenium, and his son, Lamech, begot Noah, who was to rescue humanity from its degradation and its virtual destruction. |

| | Methuselah's name is mentioned seven times in the Bible: Genesis 5:21,22, 25,26,27; 1 Chronicles 1:3; Luke 3:37. | | | Methuselah's great age may be further evidence of God's "long-suffering...in the days of Noah" (1 Peter 3:20; 2 Peter 3:9). | | | This fact, plus the former possible meaning of his name, suggests that Methuselah's very godly father, Enoch, received a prophecy from God when his son was born, thus the name. |
