A Shemology of the Generations of Cain
(Genesis 4)
G A Simpkins
|
Generations of Cain |
| Cain | ‘possession ‘get’ ‘acquire’ ‘possessed’ |
| Enoch | ‘dedicated’ ‘disciplined’ |
| Irad | ‘wild ass’ ‘dragon’ ‘heap of empire’ |
| Mehujael | 'who proclaims God’ |
| Methusael | ‘who is God’ ‘who demands his death’ |
| Lamech | ‘poor’ ‘made low’ |
| Adah | ‘an assembly’ |
| Zillah | ‘that tickles the ear’ ‘shadows’ |
| Jabal | ‘which slips away’ |
| Jubal | ‘a trumpet’ ‘he that runs’ |
| Tubal-cain | ‘worldly possession’ |
| Naamah | ‘beautiful’ ‘agreeable’ |
My Interpretation:
"Possessed of pride and dedicated to himself, the dragon
brays as a wild ass to gain a heap of empire. He who
is poor and will be made low along with an assembly
desiring the tingling of the ear.
His kingdom which slips away, a trumpet ends his worldly
possession. Which is agreeable."
