Genesis 5:25, 26, 27 Commentary
THOMAS HAWEIS COMMENTARY
Verses 25-27: Methuselah died in the year of the deluge, as if taken away from the evil to come. He exceeded all men in length of days, but died too: every man living is altogether vanity. When we consider that a thousand years and one day are alike compared with eternity, the difference of the age of Methuselah, and the child that breathed only, and died, vanishes into nothing. If eternity is so vast, and time so vain, how careful should we be to redeem the one, in order to secure the other!
