[2] {builded a city}
The first civilization, that which perished in the judgment of the
Flood, was Cainitic in origin, character, and destiny. Every element
of material civilization is mentioned in verses 16-22, city and
pastoral life, and the development of arts and manufactures. Enoch,
after whom the first city was named, means "teacher." The \\el\\
termination of the names of Enoch's son and grandson shows that for a
time the knowledge of Elohim was preserved, but his soon disappears
# Ro 1:21-23
Adah means "pleasure," or "adornment"; Zillah, to "hide"; Lamech,
"conqueror," or "wild man." (Cf)
# Ro 1:21-25
» See Note Ge 6.4
The Cainitic civilization may have been as splendid as that of
Greece or Rome, but the divine judgment is according to the \\moral\\
state, not the \\material\\.
# Ge 6:5-7

[2] {Enoch}
Enoch, "translated that he should not see death"
# Heb 11:5
before the judgment of the Flood, is a type of those saints who are to
be translated before the apocalyptic judgments
# 1Th 4:14-17
Noah, left on the earth, but preserved through the judgment of the Flood,

apocalyptic judgments
# Jer 30:5-9 Re 12:13-16
and brought as an earthly people to the new heaven and new earth

[1] {sons of God}
Some hold that these "sons of God" were the "angels which kept not
their first estate"
# Jude 1:6
It is asserted that the title is in the O.T. exclusively used of
angels. But this is an error
# Isa 43:6
Angels are spoken of in a sexless way. No female angels are
mentioned in Scripture, and we are expressly told that marriage is
unknown among angels.
# Mt 22:30
The uniform Hebrew and Christian interpretation has been that verse 2
marks the breaking down of the separation between the godly line of
Seth and the godless line of Cain, and so the failure of the testimony
to Jehovah committed to the line of Seth
# Ge 4:26
For \\apostasy\\ there is no remedy but judgment
# Isa 1:2-7,24,25 Heb 6:4-8 10:26-31
Noah, "a preacher of righteousness," is given 120 years, but he won no
convert, and the judgment predicted by his great-grandfather fell
# Jude 1:14,15 Ge 7:11
