Adam‘s family

The Table “Adam’s family” starts with Adam. The column under Adam is the centrepiece of the table. They are the first eleven patriarchs from Adam via Noah up to Noah’s son Shem, the father of the Semites. The numbers in the right margin of the table give this order. In Jakob Lorber’s works this line of Adam via Noah up to Abraham is described as the principle line children or the principle heirs. It is the line which leads to Jesus.

Three sons of Adam are mentioned in the Bible, Cain, Abel and Seth. Seth was born when Adam was 130 years old. Theoretically Cain could have been born one year after Adam and Eve had been created. Adam and Eve had other children before Seth. Jakob Lorber lists Jura as the third son of Adam, Bhusin as the fourth and Ohorion as the fifth, jl.hag1.128,01. The wife of Cain is described as Ahar, jl.hag1.017,12 and the wife of Seth as Jeha, jl.hag1.044,15. Cain was the first son of man and Ahar and Jeha therefore were the first women mentioned as daughters of man.

jl.hag1.044,15

And you Enos, and Cainan, hurry into my hut, and fetch immediately the best food and the freshest drink, and tell my wife Jeha, your mother, that her father Adam and her mother Eve is hungry and thirsty for it, and bring her here, so that also she vows what I have just now so holy sworn in the face of God! Now go, and come at once! Amen, amen, amen.«

This is Seth speaking and it is in the year 920 after Adam, therefore 10 years before Adam’s death. Enos is at that time 685 years old and Cainan 595 years, and still they are sent out by their father, or grandfather, like little boys, to get their mother. And this shows us how a genuine and good social system should be and function. It is the elders who are the bosses. And that is exactly as it is in the true church. In the natural family it is those who are the oldest in years of life, and get the wiser the older they get, and are through this, that they live with God, also bodily completely healthy. And that was then also the true church. And in today’s church, in the true church, it is that those ones who have the most years as children of God behind them. And that does not exclude that they fall back on those who are still closer to God than they are themselves. And in a healthy society, which lives with God, this leadership through elders is the system, which is to be preferred before all other systems, including a monarchy or a democracy. At the time of the judges the Israelites lived much better than after that, when they demanded a king.

Adam fathered many sons and daughters. Genesis 5:3-5: And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth: And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.

To the right of this column we have other members of Adam’s family. They are the descendants of Seth. The names to the right of the main column agree more or less with these 11 generations. To the left of it, this is already less the case. The descendants of Cain had other life spans. Here jl.hag3.126,07-08:

And Lamech in the depth, who was then still alive, had to watch with great regret what those did who came down from the height.

But from his end he called his children to himself, when he had reached an age of 630 years, what was something unparalleled in the depth, and said to them:

The descendants of Cain are coloured blue. Female persons are coloured yellow.

The column where Cain appears at the top numbers the names of the rulers of the city of Enoch (Hanoch) from Enoch (Hanoch) to Tubalcain.

With Tubalcain the dynasty of Cain ends. One of the kings after that was Uraniel, he is listed to the right at the bottom of the table „Adam’s family“. Uraniel‘s sister was Noah‘s wife.
