@genesis.11.chapte: The family that may have triggered the Flood. Here's the theory I'm proposing: Could something about Lamech's family, their influence, or what they represented in the generations before Noah have played a role in the events that led to the Great Flood? Genesis does not explicitly identify Lamech's family as the cause of the Flood. But the details Scripture preserves invite us to look closer, examine the timeline, and ask questions that are often overlooked. Could Lamech's family hold a clue to what happened?
