Subject: What do these 430 years mean? |
Bible Note: Hi Got Truth?, I explain in the tread of this discussion why I believe the 430 years is from the offering of Isaac by Abraham and the 400 years is from the birth of Jacob. If the 430 years is from Abraham crossing the Euphrates at age 75, then what is the 400 years? Thanks, Jim Estes |
