Early Patriarch

H4232
Mehujael was a descendant of Cain and the father of Methushael.
Mehujael was a descendant of Cain, son of Irad and father of Methushael, in the Cainite genealogy of Genesis 4:18. He stands four generations from Adam through the line of Cain, parallel to the Sethite lineage that runs through the same number of generations. His name may contain the element 'El' (God), though theophoric names appear even in the line of the cursed Cain. He is known only from this genealogical record.
