The Lord Will

Genesis 5:10

β€œAnd Enos lived after he begat Cainan eight hundred and fifteen years, and begat sons and daughters:”

KJV

Read in Genesis 5

Meaning

Enosh lives 815 additional years after Kenan and fathers other sons and daughters whose names are not supplied.

Read carefully

The omission of names reflects the genealogy's focus, not a claim that the unnamed family members lacked historical or personal significance.

Reflection

Selective remembrance is built into genealogical writing; the text traces one line while acknowledging a much larger family world.
