Cainan can refer to either A variant of the name Kenan in the generations of Adam , the lists of antediluvian patriarchs given in the Torah Cainan, the son of the Arpachshad mentioned in most manuscripts of the Gospel of Luke 3 36. This reference to Cainan is present in the Septuagint and Samaritan versions of the Book of Genesis , as well as in the Book of Jubilees however, the early Christian apologists Irenaeus and Eusebius believed it to be an error, as do many modern interpreters, mainly on the basis of his omission from the Masoretic Text Masoretic Hebrew version. According to the Book of Jubilees , Cainan was taught to read by his father, and he found, carved on the rocks by former generations, an inscription preserving the science of astrology as taught by the Watchers , who had rebelled from God before the deluge. He is also stated to have married a daughter of Madai named Milcah. The Sefer ha Yashar describes Cainan, the possessor of great astrological wisdom, which had been inscribed on tables of stone, as the son of Seth and not of Arpachshad i.e., the antediluvian Kenan.

Madai Hebrew Name 1 , IPA he ma da.i pron Greek Language Greek , IPA el m dos is a son of Japheth and one of the 16 grandsons of Noah in the Book of Genesis of the Hebrew Bible . Biblical scholars have identified Madai with various nations, from the Mitanni of early records, to the Iranian Medes of much later records. The Medes, reckoned to be his offspring by Flavius Josephus Josephus and most subsequent writers, were also known as Madai , including in both Assyria n and Hebrew language Hebrew sources. The Kurds still maintain traditions of descent from Madai. According to the Book of Jubilees 10 35 36 , Madai had married a daughter of Shem , and preferred to live among Shem s descendants, rather than dwell in Japheth s allotted inheritance beyond the Black Sea so he begged his brothers in law, Elam Hebrew Bible Elam , Ashur Asshur and Arpachshad Arphaxad , until he finally received from them the land that was named after him, Media. Another line in Jubilees 8 5 states that a daughter of Madai named Milcah married Cainan , who is an ancestor of Abraham also mentioned in older versions of Genesis.

Elam in the Hebrew Bible Book of Genesis Genesis 10 22, Book of Ezra Ezra 4 9 is said to be the oldest son of Shem , the son of Noah . It is also used as in Akkadian language Akkadian , for the ancient country of Elam in what is now southern Iran , whose people the Hebrews believed to be the offspring of Elam, son of Shem. This implies that the Elamites were considered Semites by the Hebrews, although their language was not Semitic languages Semitic , but is considered a linguistic isolate . This modern categorization does not conflict with the Hebrew Bible, since it holds that the diversity of human languages originated at the Tower of Babel. The Bible says that Elam s younger brother Arphaxad was born two years after the flood, implying that Elam himself may have been born on the ark. Elam the nation is also mentioned in Genesis 14, describing an ancient war in the time of Abraham , involving a king of Elam it calls Chedorlaomer . The prophecies of Book of Isaiah Isaiah 11 11, 21 2, 22 6 and Book of Jeremiah Jeremiah 25 25 also mention Elam, and the last part of Jeremiah 49 is an apocalyptic oracle against Elam, self dated to the first year of Zedekiah 597 BC . The Book of Jubilees may reflect ancient tradition when it mentions a son or daughter, in some versions of Elam named Susan , whose daughter Rasuaya married Arpachshad , progenitor of another branch of Shemites. Shushan or Susa was the ancient capital of the Elamite Empire. Dan. 8 2 Sons of Noah Elam as a personal name also refers to eight other figures appearing in the Hebrew Bible Elam is a son of Shashak of the tribe of Benjamin in 1 Chronicles 8 24 .
