Lamech (/ˈleɪmɪk/;Hebrew: לֶמֶךְ‎‎ Lemeḵ) was a patriarch in the genealogies of Adam in the Book of Genesis.

According to Christianity he is part of the genealogy of Jesus in Luke 3:36.

Additionally, Lamech (Arabic: Lamk) is also mentioned in Islam in the various collections of tales of the pre-Islamic prophets, which mentions him in an identical manner. Furthermore, early Islamic historians like Ibn Ishaq and Ibn Hisham always included his name in the genealogy of the Prophet Muhammad.

Lamech is the eighth generation descendant of Adam (Genesis 5:25), the son of Methuselah and the father of Noah (Genesis 5:29), in the genealogy of Seth in Genesis 5. In Genesis 5:12-25, Lamech was a son of Methuselah who was a grandson of Jared who was a grandson of Kenan descended from Adam.

Genesis 5:28-31 records that Lamech was 182 years old at the birth of Noah and lived for another 595 years, attaining an age at death of 777 years, five years before the Flood in the Masoretic chronology. With such numbers in this genealogical account, Adam would still have been alive for about the first 56 years of Lamech's life.
