MEHUJAEL, son of Irad, Gen. 4:18.MEHUJAEL [SMITH]
(smitten by God), the son of Irad, and fourth in descent from Cain. (Genesis 4:18)MEHUJAEL [ISBE]
MEHUJAEL - me-hu'-ja-el (mechuya'el, mechiya'el, "smitten of God"): A descendant of Cain through Enoch and Irad (Gen 4:18). The list in Gen 5:12 ff is a working-over of the same material of genealogy by another hand at a different date of spelling (compare spelling of Chaucer and that of today). In that ease, Mehalalel would be the correspondent name to Mehujael (see Expository Times, X, 353).
