=== Life Sketch ===
According to Genesis, Seth was 105 years old when Enos was born[1] (but the Septuagint version gives 205 years[2]), and Seth had further sons and daughters. He was the grandson of Adam and Eve (Genesis 5:6-11; Luke 3:38). According to Seder Olam Rabbah, based on Jewish reckoning, he was born in AM 235. According to the Septuagint, it was in AM 435.
Enos or Enosh (1 Chronicles 1:1 KJV), which means “mortal man” in Hebrew, is the eldest son of Seth, and Adam and Eve’s grandson. He was born when Seth was one hundred and five years old (Genesis 5:6 KJV). It was mentioned in Genesis 4:26 KJV, that Seth had a son and named him Enos, then began men to call upon the name of the Lord.
Enos was ninety when he begat Cainan (Genesis 5:9 KJV). After Cainan, Enos had other sons and daughters and lived for another eight hundred and fifteen years (Genesis 5:10). Enos lived a total of nine hundred and five years before he finally rested (Genesis 5:11 KJV). The Bible Timeline charts his birth at 3769 BC and death at 2864 BC.
Enos was the father of Kenan, who was born when Enos was 90 years old[3] (or 190 years, according to the Septuagint). According to the Bible he lived 905 years.
According to the Book of Jubilees (4:11-13) in the Ethiopian Orthodox Bible, Enos was born in AM 235, and "began to call on the name of the Lord on the earth." He married his sister, No'am, and she bore him Kenan in the year 325 AM. Ethiopian Orthodox tradition considers him a "faithful and righteous servant of God", and further credits him with the introduction, following a divine revelation, of the Ge'ez alphabet in its original, consonant-only form, "as an instrument for codifying the laws".[5]
The Doctrine and Covenants teaches that Enos was ordained to the Priesthood at age 134.[6] When Adam called his posterity into the land of Adam-ondi-Ahman to give them a final blessing, Enos was one of the righteous high priests in attendance.[7]
According to the Mandaean scriptures including the Qolastā, the Book of John and Genzā Rabbā, Enosh is cognate with the angelic soteriological figure Anush Uthra[8] who taught John the Baptist and performed many of the same miracles within Jerusalem typically ascribed to Jesus by Christians.[9]
