Lousy Papas
This papa became like a wild animal, which is weird since he was a great king who dreamt of a statue of himself made of gold, silver, bronze, iron and clay.
Nebuchadnezzar
Children: Belshazzar,, Amel-Marduk, Ba'u-asītu, Eanna-szarra-usur

Joseph
Children: Jesus (Earthly father),Judas, Justus, James, and Simon, Assia and Lydia
Although having only three (3) named sons in the bible. This man is technically the father of everyone.
Adam

Sons: Cain, Able, Seth
This papa tried to establish the religion of Baal in Israel and tried to kill God's prophet. Some would say he didn't wear the pants in his family

This dad got a name change and it wasn't to hide from his many nations of children. He was really fond of his second son though.

This man's hobbies seem to include "ship building" and "animal gathering".

Father of Gershom and Eliezer. This dad put up with and did many great things for his people. They even say that he could get water out of a rock.

Methuselah
Lived: 969 years
Children: Lamech, Rakel
This papa was famous for disobeying directives given by God's servant Samuel and for chasing and trying to kill a young man out of insecurity/jealously. Guess he lived by the sword and fell on the sword.
Saul
Children:: Jonathan, Michal, Ish-bosheth, Merab, Abinadab, Mephibosheth, Malchishua, Armoni
This dad had thirty (30) recorded children in all, even though he lost ten (10) along the way. That's what happens when you are very faithful.
Job

Although his son lived way more days on earth than he did, he technically still outlived his son. But that's what happens when you walk with your great Father.
