The Antediluvian (before the flood) Patriarchs are the central figures of the 20 generations from Adam to Noah. In providential history, these are the first descendants of Adam who had to deal with the consequences of the Fall of Man. All of these figures play important roles in Hebrew scripture and some of them still stand as central personages of the Abrahamic faiths.
While some of these figures are well known such as Enoch and Noah, much less is known about the others. In this section, we will assemble as much information as we can about these early providential persons, their times, their relationships and their accomplishments.
