Peter, I am well aware of the Targums (oral tradition). Targums give Adam
credit for part, and Seth for part. And the book passed to Lemach. Targums say
that only God and Lemach called Noah, Noah. So the is evidence here that
points to Lemach as keeping a diary in Genesis. From Lemach to Shem. Shem and
Eber started a school. Somewhere it made its way to Moses. If you
chronologically constructed a time line from Genesis you would find Adam could have sit
around a fire and taught many of the kids(<:~
