¿Por qué mi Biblia dice algo distinto?
- Génesis 5 y 11: por qué difieren las edades de los patriarcas
En la Septuaginta griega, la mayoría de los patriarcas de Génesis 5 y 11 tienen a su hijo unos 100 años más tarde que en el texto hebreo, y Génesis 11 añade un segundo Cainán, a quien san Lucas también nombra (Lucas 3:36). El resultado es una historia del mundo más de mil años más larga. El calendario bizantino se construyó sobre las cifras griegas. Ninguna doctrina depende de una u otra serie.
Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron

Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).

Will any man do so when it is written of him, "And he begat sons and daughters, and all the days of Seth were 912 years, and he died?" And similarly regarding those whose years are afterwards mentioned, it is not disguised that they begat sons and daughters.

Further, Seth signifies "resurrection," and Enos his son signifies "man," not as Adam, which also signifies man, but is used in Hebrew indifferently for man and woman, as it is written, "Male and female created He them, and blessed them, and called their name Adam," leaving no room to doubt that though the woman was distinctively called Eve, yet the …
