Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(9) Enos lived ninety years.--This proves that the years could not have been mere revolutions of the moon, as some have supposed. So Cainan was only seventy years of age at the birth of his son, and Mahalaleel sixty-five. In the LXX. no patriarch has a son until he is at least 162 years of age, so that the supposition there would be more tenable.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewWhen Enoshאֱנ֖וֹשׁ (’ĕ·nō·wōš)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 583: Enosh -- 'man', a son of Sethwasוַֽיְחִ֥י (way·ḥî)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 2421: To live, to revive90תִּשְׁעִ֣ים (tiš·‘îm)Number - common pluralStrong's 8673: Ninetyyears old,שָׁנָ֑ה (šā·nāh)Noun - feminine singularStrong's 8141: A yearhe became the father ofוַיּ֖וֹלֶד (way·yō·w·leḏ)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Hifil - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 3205: To bear young, to beget, medically, to act as midwife, to show lineageKenan.קֵינָֽן׃ (qê·nān)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 7018: Kenan -- a descendant of SethJump to PreviousBegat Begetteth Begot Cainan Enos Enosh Kenan Ninety
