1 | Does anyone know whrn the beginning was? | Gen 1:31 | ebrain | 165252 | ||
Are you using the Prophetic year of 360 days, or the Solar year of approx 365.25 years? | ||||||
2 | Does anyone know whrn the beginning was? | Gen 1:31 | mark d seyler | 165255 | ||
Hi Edwin, I am giving "years" as listed in the Bible. "And Adam was 130 years old when..." I do not know for certian when the year changed from 360 days to the current 365.2424 days, whether it was in the days, of Noah, the Exodus, of Joshua, or later. Its been a number of years since I did that research. I do know that it was not later than the Babylonian Captivity, and as such, would not have a greater affect on the age of the earth than around 50 years or so (if I am doing my math right). So as I gave a range of 6100 to 6400 years, it was partly also to accomodate that. But to answer your question, where the Bible says "years", I have taken it without regard to whether this is a 360 or 365 day year. Love in Christ, Mark |

It would appear from Genesis 7:11,and 24, with Ch 8:3-4, that a 360 day year might very well have been in use at that time, as 150 days is exactly 5 months of 30 days each. | ||||||

Hi Edwin, It seems to me that there was indeed a 360 day year, and at some point, it changed, probibly due to celestial occurances in our earth's cataclysmic past. To anyone interested, I recommend "Worlds in Collision", "Earth in Upheaval", and "Ages in Chaos", all by Immanuel Velikovsky, a Russian scientist. He gives a very thorough presentation showing the historical evidence of what the Bible tells us happened. He was not, by the way, a believer. He was just interested in that sort of thing. Love in Christ, Mark |

Hi Lionheart, This timeline comes up with similar information. http://www.achievebalance.com/data/timeline/b.htm I have glanced through about a dozen timelines on the web, all differ. I have not yet found the chart I made some time ago. I remember seeing someone's timeline in the archives on this site that agreed with mine nearly exactly, if I could only find it again - sigh... I'll keep trying for you, brother! Love in Christ, Mark |
