
Some think so.

Enoch – Teaching
Methuselah – His death shall bring
Lamech – Despairing
Noah – Comfort and rest
A Hidden Message?

Man (is) given mortality as an
inheritance. The blessed God shall
come down in faithfulness. When He
dies, strength and comfort shall be
sent.
Cain and His Descendants

Two Lines and Two Realms
The Bible tells us that Cain and Abel were
not the only descendants of Adam and
Eve. Genesis 5:4 says that later Adam
begot more sons and daughters. But Cain
and Abel stand out from the other
descendants because they represent the
two manners of life.

Cain Being Sent Away from
God's Presence

???. I really doubt you can say with
certainty that the names have a hidden
meaning, but it is interesting.

God will wipe out those dedicated to
rebellion. The man of God is humble.
