Yes, and that is what the Word declares.

In the timeline link I find that Enoch was son of Cain. It also says that Enoch is son of Jared. Then in Jude it says Enoch was the 7th of Adam.
How can you be the son of 3 fathers?
I also realize that the world was created on the same date as the Masons say, 4004 BC. I'm not sure about that secret group. I fact they have their own calendar that says 4004 BC is date 0. Todays date would be 6015.
About the flood. Methuselah and Lamech were father and son who lived til after the flood in 2345 BC. They were the Grandfather and father of Noah.
I'm guessing they must have been on the ark with Noah? [/QB]
It might help if you were to read the Bible, and seek the scriptural truth..
Different Enochs, different lineage.
Genesis 4: 16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. 17 And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch. 18 And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat Mehujael: and Mehujael begat Methusael: and Methusael begat Lamech.
Genesis 5: 18 And Jared lived an hundred sixty and two years, and he begat Enoch: 19 And Jared lived after he begat Enoch eight hundred years, and begat sons and daughters: 20 And all the days of Jared were nine hundred sixty and two years: and he died. 21 And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah: 22 And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters: 23 And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years: 24 And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.
Genesis 5: 25 And Methuselah lived an hundred eighty and seven years, and begat Lamech. 26 And Methuselah lived after he begat Lamech seven hundred eighty and two years, and begat sons and daughters: 27 And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died. 28 And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and two years, and begat a son: 29 And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed. 30 And Lamech lived after he begat Noah five hundred ninety and five years, and begat sons and daughters: 31 And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy and seven years: and he died. 32 And Noah was five hundred years old: and Noah begat Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
Adam, Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared, Enoch.
Adam #1 Enoch #7
Jude 1: 14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam
You say the seventh "of" Adam and the Word actually says the seventh "from" Adam, a big difference.

Just quick on the trigger Carol..:>)
One thing to keep in mind is that the Bible is true and that the One Who was there from the "get-go" is the One revealing the Truth.
When the Bible appears to be in conflict with secular science, time and again the Bible has been proven true and science in error.
Secular archeology enters into its investigation from the underlying principle that the Bible is man's book of mythology, which has arisen based upon the legends of a nomadic tribe of hunter/gatherers. The premise is that evolution is true and the secular timeline of tens of thousands of years is needed to explain the facial evidence of the mythological Deluge.
Liberal presentations of Biblical concepts place more credibility upon secular scientific conclusions rather than analyzing the data from a truly Biblical perspective.

Caretaker beat me to it!
Well, some timelines say 1656 years before the flood from the time of creation based on the ages of all the people mentioned before the flood.

In Joshua chapter 6 it tells how the Ark of the Covenant was carried around the wall and then trumpets sounded.
Joshua 6:20 When the trumpets sounded, the people shouted, and at the sound of the trumpet, when the people gave a loud shout, the wall collapsed; so every man charged straight in, and they took the city.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_Jericho
It also talks about the wall too.
The flood question was intended to find at what date in history in happened. I'm trying to put together a world timeline.

Something I seen somewhere else talked of the wall of Jerico being knocked down by the ark of the covenant in 1450 BC. But the wall was built 6,000 years earlier?
What does Jerico have to do with the great flood?
Where do you get your date of 6000 years earlier from?
So was the ark of the covenant used like a battering ram to knock down the walls of Jerico, or like some magical talisman?
