Footnote

Lamech had given his son the name Noah​—probably meaning “Rest” or “Consolation”—​and had prophesied that Noah would fulfill the significance of his name by leading mankind to a rest from toiling on cursed ground. (Gen. 5:28, 29) Lamech did not live to see his prophecy fulfilled. Noah’s mother, brothers, and sisters may have perished in the Flood.
