Genesis 5:22
“And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:”
KJV
Read in Genesis 5Meaning
Enoch's life after Methuselah is characterized not only by further children but by the repeated description that he walked with God.
Read carefully
Walking with God is relational and moral language in Genesis; it is not a claim that Enoch literally spent 300 years continuously walking beside a visible figure.
Reflection
Within a genealogy dominated by age and death, Enoch is remembered above all for the quality of his relationship with God.
