The average life span before the flood was 857 years.
It is interesting to note that Adam lived long enough, at 930 years, to see
the EIGHTH generation of his family, Lamech, live to the age of 46 years old!
* Adam's first son was Cain and his second was Abel. The Bible does not state Adam's age when either of the sons were born. Seth was born, sometime after Cain killed Abel, when Adam was 130 years old.
