Early generations: Adam HaRishon, Sheyt (Seth), Enosh

In this first session of this series, we will learn Talmudic-period sources about the first generations of people: Adam HaRishon and the generations of his children and grandchildren. To what extent were they righteous? Besides the major failure of Adam HaRishon in disobeying G-d’s command and eating the forbidden fruit, did he and his family generally keep faith with G-d and obey him? We will begin to explore where the generation of Enosh seems to have spiritually lost its way.

I have posted here sourcs that we will be studying in this session.
