The namesake for the gene was, of course, the Biblical Methuselah.

A descendant of Adam and Eves son Seth, he is said to have lived for over nine hundred years.

These days, people don't live nearly as long.

How about Methuselah"s son Enoch the seventh from Adam who did not die.

The scriptures state that he walked with God and God was pleased with him and He translated(took) him, which is more than the scriptures say about anybody else leaving this life without the death of the body preceding the event.

What about Elijah? (2Kings 2:11)
