Son of Enosh, father of Mahalalel
Lived 910 years (Genesis 5:14)
“Fourth from Adam in the line that runs through Shet to Noach”
Traditional note: Distinct from a second figure of this same name found only in Luke 3:36 (a Septuagint-following reading) between Arpachshad and Shelach — see the note on 'shelach' in this file. This Kenan, son of Enosh, is the one attested without dispute in Genesis 5:9–14, 1 Chronicles 1:2, and Luke 3:37.
