John,
Why are the names different? For example, in Luke 3:36, we have “the son of Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, the son of Sem, the son of Noah, the son of Lamech.”
But in Genesis 5:32, we have “And Noah was five hundred years old, and he fathered Shem, Ham, and Japheth.”
Just Curious,

Hi Wendell,
Names often undergo a change as they go from one language to another. In this case, Genesis is written in Hebrew, and James is written in Greek. That’s all it is.
