Meaning:*
This name derives from the Hebrew “Məṯûšélaḥ / Məṯûšālaḥ > Methûshelach,” meaning “man of the sword, a man of the dart.” Methuselah is Enoch’s son, 6th in descent from Seth, and Lamech’s father and Noah’s grandfather. Methuselah appears in two crucial Jewish works from the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC. In the Book of Enoch, Enoch (as the narrator) tells Methuselah of the coming worldwide flood and the future Messianic kingdom. The Book of Jubilees names Methuselah’s mother and his wife; both are named Edna; and his daughter-in-law, Betenos, Lamech’s wife.
