Compelling Love

The meanings of the Hebrew names in the genealogy from Adam to Noah contain a prophetic gospel message:

Man is appointed mortal sorrow; (but) the Blessed God shall come down teaching (that) His death shall bring (the) despairing rest.

(Chuck Missler, ‘Hidden Treasures in the Biblical Text’, p. 17)

Bible reference: Genesis 5, 9:29

The Holy Spirit inspired these names over the span of a thousand years forming a prophetic statement about the Son of God whose death would bring salvation to a lost and dying world.

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16)
