Naamah (Genesis)


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Naamah
Marble bas relief at Orvieto Cathedral depicts Naamah as a teacher of reading, while her half-brother Jubal is a father of music.
Born	Naamah
Other names	Naama
Spouse	Noah
Parent(s)	Lamech and Zillah maybe Enoch and Edna
Relatives	Jabal (half-brother) Jubal (half-brother) Tubal-cain (brother)

Naamah (Hebrew: נַעֲמָה – Naʿămā) is an individual mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, in Genesis 4:22.
A descendant of Cain, she was the only mentioned daughter of Lamech and Zillah
and their youngest mentioned child; her brother was Tubal-cain,
while Jabal and Jubal were her half-brothers, sons of Lamech's other wife Adah.
Theories

Gordon Wenham notes that the reason "she should be picked out for special mention remains obscure",^[1]
while R. R. Wilson suggests that the narrator simply wished to offer a balanced genealogy
by noting that both of Lamech's wives had two children.^[2]
The early Jewish midrash Genesis Rabba (23.3)^[3]
identifies this Naamah (the daughter of Lamech and sister of Tubal-cain)
as the wife of Noah (see Rashi's commentary on Genesis 4:22),
while some Jewish traditions associate her with singing.^[1]
The Naamah mentioned in the Bible is a Cainite, a descendant in the lineage of Cain.
However, a Sethite Naamah is named as the wife of Noah, and a daughter of Enoch,
Noah's great-grandfather, in a medieval midrash.^[4]
The 17th-century theologian John Gill mentioned a theory which identified Naamah
instead with the name of the wife of Ham, son of Noah,
who he believed may have become confused with Noah's wife. See Wives aboard the Ark.^[5]

To the ancients, names were very important, and by the second century B.C.E. Jewish writers
had filled in the blanks of the Genesis narrative with writings that dealt with the same traditions.

The earliest known name given for Noah’s wife is Emzara (“mother of a princess”),
which is found in the non-canonical Book of Jubilees (4:33), written c. 160 B.C.E.

We are also told that she is Noah’s first cousin; the daughter of Rake’el, his father’s brother.

The Book of Jubilees also identifies many of the other nameless matriarchs of Genesis,
including her daughters-in-law Sedeqetelbab (Shem’s wife), Na’eltam’uk (Ham’s wife),
and Adataneses (Jepheth’s wife), whose husbands name cities after them.

The name Emzara for Noah’s wife is attested in other Second Temple literature
found among the Dead Sea Scrolls, including the text known as the Genesis Apocryphon.

This particular text even spins an interesting tale about another important woman in Noah’s life
that goes unnamed in the Book of Genesis—his mother, Bitenosh
—and a bit of drama that occurs just after his birth.

The name Emzara for Noah’s wife must not have been widely accepted,
however, because in later rabbinic literature she has a completely different identity.

According to the midrash known as Genesis Rabbah (c. 300–500 C.E.),
a collection of ancient rabbinical interpretations of Genesis, she was Naamah,
the daughter of Lamech and sister of Tubal-Cain (Genesis 4:22).

Later midrash, such as the medieval Book of Jasher, seemingly uncomfortable with Noah’s wife
being from the descendants of Cain, states she is Naamah the daughter of Enoch.

Whether she was Emzara, Naamah, or simply just a woman whose real name has been lost to the long flow of time,
the wife of Noah survived a harrowing tale of faith and hardship.
Whether you read her story through the lens of faith, folklore,
or critical analysis, this woman deserves our respect and admiration.
