The Tarantella is a folk dance from Italy.

We read about it in "Judy Moody Around the World in 8 1/2 Days."  In the book they learned about Italy and Judy danced the Tarantella.  Here is the song with photos from Italy.


We also watched these videos of the dance.

Enoch's Geneology

Adam
Seth
Enos
Canan
Malaleel
Jared
Enoch

Was Adam alive when Enoch was?


Genesis 5:5 And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.

Genesis 5:3 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own alikeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:

Genesis 5:6 And Seth lived an hundred and five years, and begat Enos:

Genesis 5:9  And Enos lived ninety years, and begat Cainan:

Genesis 5:12  And Cainan lived seventy years, and begat Mahalaleel:

Genesis 5:15  And Mahalaleel lived sixty and five years, and begat Jared:

Genesis 5:18  And Jared lived an hundred sixty and two years, and he begat Enoch:
Genesis 5:21  And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah:  

Adam lived 930 years
Adam was 130 when he had Seth
Seth was 105 when he had Enos (Adam was 235)
Enos was 90 when he had Cainan (Adam was 325)
Canan was 70 when he had Mahaleleel (Adam was 395)
Malaleel was 65 when he had Jared (Adam was 460)
Jared was 162 when he had Enoch (Adam was 622)
Enoch was 65 when he had Methuselah (Adam was 687)

Yes, Adam was 622 when Enoch was born, and 687 when Enoch had Methuselah.  Adam lived to be 930.

Enoch 32, 33

Enoch 32 - Enoch sees animals and stars.  He counts the stars.

Enoch 36 - He sees 3 gates of heaven, out of which blow the northern winds with rain, hail, snow, frost, etc..  He travels around and sees more groups of 3 gates.  There were smaller gates that the stars of heaven passed on through.
