Genesis 4:18

And being born to Narrow אֶת-Fugitive and Fugitive has begotten אֶת-Struck-by-El; and Struck-by-El has begotten אֶת-Man-of-El; and Man-of-El has begotten אֶת-Lamech.186

186

Cain’s descendants are put through a lot. Irad means fleet or fugitive [segregated, removed-one] (#5897) and Mehujael means struck by el (#4232). Lamech apparently means “powerful” or perhaps a compound of prepositions and a suffix: To-from-you. Dedicated, a.k.a. Enoch, a type of Christ.
