Genesis 5:22 Summary
Genesis 5:22 tells us that after Enoch had his son Methuselah, he walked with God for 300 years and had more children. This means that Enoch had a very close relationship with God, and he trusted and obeyed Him for a long time. We can learn from Enoch's example by seeking to have a close relationship with God, just like he did (as also seen in Genesis 6:9, where Noah walked with God). By walking with God, we can trust His plan and timing for our lives, just like Enoch did, and live a life that is pleasing to Him (see also Psalm 37:3-7).

Gill's Exposition on Genesis 5:22
And Enoch walked with God, after he begat Methuselah, three hundred years,.... The Greek version is two hundred.

And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters: And Enoch walked with God - Hebrew, haa-'Elohiym (H430), the God, a personal deity; because the
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Genesis 5:22
i.e. He lived as one whose eye was continually upon God; whose care and constant course and business it was to please God, and to imitate him, and to maintain acquaintance and communion with him; as one devoted to God’ s service, and wholly governed by his will. He walked not with the men of that wicked age, or as they walked, but being a prophet and preacher, as may be gathered from , with great zeal and courage he protested and preached against their evil practices, and boldly owned God and his ways in the midst of them. Compare . Begat sons and daughter’ s; hence it is undeniably evident that the state and use of matrimony doth very well agree with the severest course of holiness, and with the office of a prophet or preacher.
Trapp's Commentary on Genesis 5:22
Genesis 5:22 And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:Ver. 22. And Enoch walked with God,] i.e., he walked in the fear of the Lord, as the Chaldee here paraphraseth: and this he did without intermission, not for a time or two, but continually, constantly: he walked with God by a humble familiarity, and a holy conformity; as a man doth with his friend. To walk with God, before God, and after God, are much at one.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Genesis 5:22
Verse 22. And Enoch walked with God - three hundred years] There are several things worthy of our most particular notice in this account: 1. The name of this patriarch; Enoch, from חנך chanack, which signifies to instruct, to initiate, to dedicate. From his subsequent conduct we are authorized to believe he was early instructed in the things of God, initiated into the worship of his Maker, and dedicated to his service. By these means, under the influence of the Divine Spirit, which will ever attend pious parental instructions, his mind got that sacred bias which led him to act a part so distinguished through the course of a long life. 2. His religious conduct. He walked with God; יתהלך yithhallech, he set himself to walk, he was fixedly purposed and determined to live to God. Those who are acquainted with the original will at once see that it has this force. A verb in the conjugation called hithpael signifies a reciprocal act, that which a man does upon himself: here we may consider Enoch receiving a pious education, and the Divine influence through it; in consequence of which he determines to be a worker with God, and therefore takes up the resolution to walk with his Maker, that he might not receive the grace of God in vain. 3. The circumstances in which he was placed.
He was a patriarch; the king, the priest, and the prophet of a numerous family, to whom he was to administer justice, among whom he was to perform all the rites and ceremonies of religion, and teach, both by precept and example, the way of truth and righteousness. Add to this, he was a married man, he had a numerous family of his own, independently of the collateral branches over which he was obliged, as patriarch, to preside; he walked three hundred years with God, and begat sons and daughters; therefore marriage is no hinderance even to the perfection of piety; much less inconsistent with it, as some have injudiciously taught. 4. The astonishing height of piety to which he had arrived; being cleansed from all filthiness of the flesh and of the spirit, and having perfected holiness in the fear of God, we find not only his soul but his body purified, so that, without being obliged to visit the empire of death, he was capable of immediate translation to the paradise of God. There are few cases of this kind on record; but probably there might be more, many more, were the followers of God more faithful to the grace they receive. 5. Enoch attained this state of religious and spiritual excellence in a time when, comparatively speaking, there were few helps, and no written revelation. Here then we cannot but see and admire how mighty the grace of God is, and what wonders it works in the behalf of those who are faithful, who set themselves to walk with God.
Cambridge Bible on Genesis 5:22
22. walked with God] The phrase here, as in Genesis 5:24, used of Enoch, has passed into common use to express intimacy of communion with God. It denotes more than either standing in His presence, or walking before Him (Genesis 6:9, Genesis 17:1), or following after Him. It combines the ideas of fellowship and progress. It is the picture of one who has God with him in all the various scenes of life. The audacity of the metaphor caused the LXX to render it by a paraphrase; εὐηρέστησεδὲἘνὼχτῷθεῷ = “and Enoch was well pleasing unto God,” which is quoted in Hebrews 11:5. For other paraphrases, see Targ. Onkelos, “walked in the fear of God”; Targ. Palestine, “served in the truth before the Lord.”
Whedon's Commentary on Genesis 5:22
22. And Enoch walked with God — ειϊδμκְ ηπεκְ ΰϊδΰμδινNot before God, as a messenger, or a workman beneath his eye: nor after him, as a servant; but with him, as a friend.
