Many believe that it took Noah about 100 years to build the ark, (with the help of his three sons).
Noah was commissioned to build the ark by God at approximately the same time his three sons were born (not triplets), look at Genesis 5:32, 6:10-14.
Noah was 600 years old when the ark was finished ( Genesis 7:6).
Genesis is an amazing book, one of my personal favorites!

Look closely it only mentioned "Seth in his image, likeness of Adam" Luke 3: * Luke 3:38 *
John 21:25 , Hebrew 11:32 if scripture talks about not being able to contain acts in books or even our own time on this earth; then why would we believe it could?
It's been pointed out to me that scripture was written to expose the Messiah, Saviour of the world. 1 Corinthian 15:45-47

Please read 1 Cor. 2:14 and John 8:43-45. Both readings will explain why you have such a difficult time understanding our testimony, which is of God (Cor. 2:1).
Regarding our revelations, which are from God also, we invite you to read: Daniel 12:4,9; Amos 3:7; Matthew 16:17; Luke 2:26; Romans 16:25; 1 Cor. 2:10; Gal. 1:12,16; Eph. 3:3,5; Rev. 1:1.
Google the title of the book and you will find us.
In His Service.

Some believe he was accidentally killed by a blind man who was hunting, while others believe a stone house fell upon him.
In terms of the Bible we are left to wonder as he was sent into endless wander.
5:24 He was not, for God took him - That is, as it is explained, # Heb 11:5, he was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him. But why did God take him so soon? Surely because the world, which was now grown corrupt, was not worthy of him. Because his work was done, and done the sooner for his minding it so closely. He was not, for God took him - He was not any longer in this world: it was not the period of his being, but of his being here. He was not found; so the apostle explains it from the seventy; not found by his friends, who sought him, as the sons of the prophets sought Elijah, # 2Kings 2:17. God took him body and soul to himself in the heavenly paradise, by the ministry of angels, as afterwards he took Elijah. He was changed, as those saints shall be that will be found alive at Christ's second coming.
Comment by Mishael: much like Adam in Genesis; before he and Eve ate the fruit.
The Jewish Midrash speaks of a further six people who didn't face death, but these cannot be verified in the Canon of Scripture, so are not given here as factual.

This is a hugely debated issue within churches 4 sure.
John 13:34-35

If there isn't a rapture could it be the cause of a great falling away?
2 Thessalonians 2:1-3

GOD be with us all who believe, love & trust HIM, to strengthen, hold, protect & keep us faithful

I hope these are helpful
Even though these events appear to have happened in chronological order as they are recorded in the Bible, it is possible that the other men and women were the sons and daughters of Adam and Eve. Genesis 5:4 Adam lived 930 years before he died.
We do not know how much time had passed before Cain knew his wife. I believe the bloodline has a lot to do with the seed that God spoke about in Genesis 3:15, which we know is Christ. Something to consider!
He was 1st Adam until he lost that Due to the fall. Jesus is 2nd Adam.
"Mahalaleel" means "praise of God" , and "Jared" means "descent".
If you look in Luke chapter 3 verse 37, you will see both their names are in the lineage of Jesus Christ who is the promised "seed of the woman" of Genesis 3:15 who would bruise the head of the serpent, Satan.
Jesus, the Son of God, became our Savior from sin by sacrificially dying our death on the cross and rising from the dead, granting all who trust in him forgiveness and everlasting life.

It seems that "Enos" is the first person recorded within the blood line of Adam and Eve that willfully chose to fall away from the word of God. Both Adam and his wife displayed fear for having disappointed the LORD ( Genesis 3:8 - 10), as well as honesty to Him about their transgression ( Genesis 3:12, 13). Seth, being Adam and Eve's first listed biological son ( Genesis 5:3), is not mentioned in Scripture as acting against the word of God in any form or manner.
To build a wedge between the word of God and His people is the main goal of Satan, and those who do his work for him. Being of a particular family or heritage does not determine whether you will love God or not; that is an individual decision. The example is set forth in this verse that within the direct bloodline of Adam, even at this early period in time, there is a falling away from the saving grace of the LORD, and it "began" with "Enos."
I believe it is also worth mentioning that "Enos" is the only Antediluvian patriarch of the genealogy of Adam and Eve, save for Seth, that is listed among "THE GENERATIONS OF THE HEAVENS AND OF THE EARTH" ( Gen 2:4). Seth is mentioned for genealogy purposes only, as the focus of this verse ( Gen 4:26) is about the error and wickedness of "Enos." The focus of the entire 4th chapter of Genesis, in general, concerns the rise of the seed of Satan upon the earth, and the influence they had on mankind from its earliest beginnings. Even though Adam walked with God only three generations earlier, "Enos" has himself chosen to fall away from the LORD and ally himself with the sons of the wicked one.
Lot and his daughters were removed to safety from Sodom before the LORD rained brimstone and fire on the cities. Sadly his wife looked back.
Our word "rapture" is derived from the Latin "rapiemur", used in the Vulgate translation of 1 Thessalonians 4:17 for "caught up" or "snatched away".
Enoch is our prototype for rapture in Genesis 5:24 and Hebrews 11:5 (translated that he should not see death...).
Another precedent: 2 Kings Chapter 2 tells us of Elijah being taken to heaven by a whirlwind in a chariot of fire.
Song of Solomon Chapter 2 relates a king calling his bride to come away with him from her hidden place, much as we can imagine Christ calling his Church out of this world.
!st Corinthians 15:51-52 declares the mystery that some will not sleep (bodily death), then promises all of us will be changed into the incorruptible and immortal.
Truly no man knows the day or hour, but the book of Revelation does not mention the Church on earth beyond the third chapter. In Revelation 7:9 an innumerable multitude of the saved out of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues stand before the throne praising God. After this the wrath of God falls upon the inhabitants of the earth, which wrath the Church is not appointed to (1-Thessalonians 5:9).
