Luke 3:37-38

3:37 the son of Methuselah, the son of Enoch, the son of Jared, the son of Mahalalel, ¹  the son of Kenan, ²  3:38 the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God. ³ 

[3:37]  ¹ sn Here the Greek text reads Mahalaleel. Some modern English translations follow the Greek spelling (NASB, NRSV) while others (NIV) use the OT form of the name (Gen 5:12, 15).

[3:37]  ² sn The Greek text has Kainam here. Some modern English translations follow the Greek spelling more closely (NASB, NRSV Cainan) while others (NIV) use the OT form of the name (Kenan in Gen 5:9, 12).

[3:38]  ³ sn The reference to the son of God here is not to a divine being, but to one directly formed by the hand of God. He is made in God’s image, so this phrase could be read as appositional (“Adam, that is, the son of God”). See Acts 17:28-29.
