Contextual Overview
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Cainan: This Cainan is not found in the Hebrew Text of any of the genealogies, but only in the Septuagint; from which, probably, the evangelist transcribed the register, as sufficiently exact for his purpose, and as more generally suited to command attention. - See note on Genesis 11:12. It may here be remarked, that though some of the same names occur here, from Nathan downwards, as in Joseph's genealogy, yet there appears no sufficient evidence that the same persons were intended, different persons often bearing the same name.
Sem: Genesis 5:32, Genesis 7:13, Genesis 9:18, Genesis 9:26, Genesis 9:27, Genesis 10:21, Genesis 10:22, Genesis 11:10-26, 1 Chronicles 1:17, Shem
Noe: Luke 17:27, Genesis 5:29, Genesis 5:30, Genesis 6:8-10, Genesis 6:22, Genesis 7:1, Genesis 7:23, Genesis 8:1, Genesis 9:1, Ezekiel 14:14, Hebrews 11:7, 1 Peter 3:20, 2 Peter 2:5, Noah
Reciprocal: Genesis 5:1 - book Genesis 5:4 - And the Genesis 10:25 - the name 1 Chronicles 1:3 - Lamech 1 Chronicles 1:4 - Noah
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Which was the son of Cainan,.... This Cainan is not mentioned by Moses in Genesis 11:12 nor has he ever appeared in any Hebrew copy of the Old Testament, nor in the Samaritan version, nor in the Targum; nor is he mentioned by Josephus, nor in 1 Chronicles 1:24 where the genealogy is repeated; nor is it in Beza's most ancient Greek copy of Luke: it indeed stands in the present copies of the Septuagint, but was not originally there; and therefore could not be taken by Luke from thence, but seems to be owing to some early negligent transcriber of Luke's Gospel, and since put into the Septuagint to give it authority: I say "early", because it is in many Greek copies, and in the Vulgate Latin, and all the Oriental versions, even in the Syriac, the oldest of them; but ought not to stand neither in the text, nor in any version: for certain it is, there never was such a Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, for Salah was his son; and with him the next words should be connected,
which was the son of Arphaxad; Genesis 11:12
which was the son of Sem, or Shem, Genesis 11:10
which was the son of Noe, or Noah, Genesis 5:32
which was the son of Lamech, Genesis 5:28
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See, on this genealogy, the notes at Matthew 1:1-16.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Luke 3:36. Of Cainan — This Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, and father of Sala, is not found in any other Scripture genealogy. See Genesis 10:24; Genesis 11:12; 1 Chronicles 1:18; 1 Chronicles 1:24, where Arphaxad is made the father of Sala, and no mention at all made of Cainan. Some suppose that Cainan was a surname of Sala, and that the names should be read together thus, The son of Heber, the son of Salacainan, the son of Arphaxad, c. If this does not untie the knot, it certainly cuts it and the reader may pass on without any great scruple or embarrassment. There are many sensible observations on this genealogy in the notes at the end of Bishop Newcome's Harmony.
