Notes for Adam |
"Formed of the dust of the ground": Genesis 2:7.
# Cole writes (and I concur): "Keep in mind that all such genealogies back to Adam and Eve are suspect. It is my opinion that the concept of "Divine Right of Kings" once influenced European rulers to find a family connection to a worthy character in the Bible in order to add validity to their claim to the throne. If the monarch's hired historian was under threat of execution should he fail to determine the proper lineage, there is reasonable expectation that he would be tempted to fabricate some of the king/queen's ancestry. Don't you agree?"
Per various sources, b. 4004 BC |
