Genesis 5:27, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Genesis 5 is a genealogy tracing the line from Adam to Noah, and verse 27 closes the entry for Methuselah, whose 969 years are the longest lifespan recorded in the Bible. The chapter follows a steady pattern: each father lives on after his son is born, has other sons and daughters, and the record ends with the same words, and then he died.
