we cannot determine this chronology unless we consult jewish literature like Jasher ,Enoch ,Jubilees they knew better they even calculated adam to Jesus as 5500 years(1st book of adam) and admitted they crucified the lord of Glory 5500 years from creation to current date of crucifixion (acts of Pilate). I cannot debate with their literature it is their culture.

Still, abiogenesis has a few working theories that are quite plausible explanations for how non-living matter gave rise to living matter. It is really a fascinating field of study.

Before Adam there was no death...no sin. Yet what you're saying is that there was death and disease before Adam. The Bible teaches part of the curse on Adam was weeds and thorns on the land...this came upon Adam after his sin. Yet, weeds have been found with dinosaurs...so if you believe dinosaurs lived long ago, how did those weeds come about? Exodus 20:11..states .... For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth and the sea and all that is in them, but on the seventh day He rested.

There is no empirical evidence for supernatural beings or places. The evidence that the existence of all human life ends when the body dies is overwhelming..

Before Gen 1:1 none. 1:1 to 1:2 science would say, 4.6 less 3.8 Billion, so about 800 Million years. The earth is not 6,000 years old and the Bible does not teach this. Hebrews 4:9-10: "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his." This tells us that the 7th day has not ended. Thus day 7 is a long time span, thus day 1 to 6 must be a long time span. Each believer are to enter into day 7. Also there no "evening and morning" for the 7th day. As day 7 as not ended. Biblical Hebrew has a limited vocabulary, with fewer words compared to other languages, such as English or Spanish. This means words often have multiple meanings determined by context. Day - yom is commonly rendered as day in English translations, but the word yom can be used in different ways to refer to different time spans thus literally is: Sunrise to sunset Sunset to next sunset Time period of unspecified length. (long time span ). We use the word day the same today: In my grandfather’s day cars did not go very fast. Deuteronomy 33:15 and Habakkuk 3:6 "ancient mountains". The events of day 6 can not have happened in 24 hours.

So, Gen 11:26 = Terah was 70yrs old when he begat Abraham. Thus 2165 +70= 2235BC. Gen. 11:24, Nahor begat Terah @ 29yrs old. So, 2235BC +29= 2464BC. Straight back to Adam. Note: When you get to Shem in Gen. 11:10 the timeline continues at Gen. 5:32 from Noah on back to Adam. Since Abraham does have DOB We can be confident that he actually lived. And NO, there is no break in this timeline. This timeline has pre-existed the one offered up to us by “the wisdom of men.” You can thank Darwin for that red-herring. All secular narratives provide a DOB for Abraham. It's a real shot in the foot, for this “newly created timeline.” Remember, the truth always comes first if a lie is intended to subvert the truth.

The earth is not 6,000 years old and the Bible does not teach this. Hebrews 4:9-10: "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his." This tells us that the 7th day has not ended. Thus day 7 is a long time span, thus day 1 to 6 must be a long time span. Each believer are to enter into day 7. Also there no "evening and morning" for the 7th day. As day 7 as not ended. Biblical Hebrew has a limited vocabulary, with fewer words compared to other languages, such as English or Spanish. This means words often have multiple meanings determined by context. Day - yom is commonly rendered as day in English translations, but the word yom can be used in different ways to refer to different time spans thus literally is: Sunrise to sunset Sunset to next sunset Time period of unspecified length. (long time span ). We use the word day the same today: In my grandfather’s day cars did not go very fast. Deuteronomy 33:15 and Habakkuk 3:6 "ancient mountains".

What were created during the very first 6 daylights are: 1. Day or light on the surface of the once dark, empty, and all water-surface earth. 2. The sky or the expanse just above the surface of the earth, or the heaven we can literally see from earth. 3. The dry land which was also called as earth because it is a part of the earth underwater, and also the vegetation on it. 4. He made the luminaries to be seen in the sky. {Perhaps, he made the atmosphere more thinner to make them visible from earth.) 5.) The creatures of the sea and of the air. 6.) The animals and man. Notice that the luminaries or sources of light we're not created on the fourth day but they were just made to appear in the sky, or through the sky. The sun, moon, and stars were already existing since before God made the very first daylight on earth by perhaps making the thick atmosphere that covers the dark earth to become thinner, so that light can breakthrough, although they were not yet visible, not until on day 4, when God made them to appear. Therefore, before the very first 6 daylights, the heavens or universe and earth were already created. Genesis 1:1 says, In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The universe includes the billions of galaxies, stars, and planets but the Earth was covered yet with darkness in those unknown length of time, and no dry land yet, and empty of any life forms. If we count then from the days of Adam down to our present time, we are not counting the actual age of our planet or the universe, but just the age of human on earth.

[@skepticalfaith5201]

Good rational explanation of the dating of creation. I have 3 criticisms: - The dates that we have begin after The Fall - NOT after Creation. We have no idea how long Adam ‘walled with God’ before the fall. - The word for day is used in 4 different meanings in the first chapters of Genesis. He calls the light Day, even before He creates the sun; He calls each period of creation a “day”. It says He rested on the 7th “day” even though He never rests (similarly it says He finished creation ON the 7th day, before saying he rested that (implied entire) day. And finally he says that in the “day” that Adam eats the fruit he shall die. Again, that was not a 24-hr day. [Ed: I believe in the dating from the Fall, but am agnostic about the exact timing of Creation]. - I was glad to see him bring in the Septuagint (LXX), since the Masoretic text was corrupted by the jews who rejected Jesus to change/remove messianic prophecies. The LXX was translated into greek about 250 years before Jesus and was the scriptures that everyone used at the time (including - especially - Paul). Using the longer time span of the LXX also provides enough time for the secular king lists of the Egyptians and the Babylonian/Sumerians. But overall a very good analysis of the timing of the period after the creation/fall.

His 30th 666 Birthday coincided with the end of 42 months from his re-election on November 6, 2012. The end of their 66 times 666 days will come after the end of the 66 days War of Armageddon as the vision of Daniel of a stone that will strike the ten toes of the mixture of clay, the Islamic Empire and iron, the British Empire that controls the Temple Mount until these End Times. The central point is the Temple Mount where they believed it as the place where the Temple once stood.

How do we know the masseteric text is wrong? Because it was written almost 1,100 years AFTER the life of Christ. When the dead sea scrolls were discovered, they read the old testament books and got confirmation, all the surviving texts prior to the 12th century all say "it was 430 years from the time of Abraham until the Israelite Exodus from Egypt." I hope this was helpful. Proving Israel was only in Egypt for 215 years.

Try Exodus 12:40-41 not Ex 4, it doesn't go that high. In the Septuagint Bible it says: 40 And the sojourning of the children of Israel, while they sojourned in the land of Egypt and the land of Chanaan, four hundred and thirty years. 41 And it came to pass after the four hundred and thirty years, all the forces of the Lord came forth out of the land of Egypt by night. For some, the Masoretic Text being compiled sometime after the 7th century A.D. is not considered as accurate as the Septuagint which was written before Jesus and used by the Apostles themselves. The Masoretic Text was used for the Old Testament of the king James Bible. While the New Testament Scriptures are not contested, the Old Testament version here is. It is well known that the Masoretes did not believe in the divinity of Jesus of Nazareth. The Masoretic Text removed a little bit, like "and the land of Chanaan" as well as 100 years off the dates of ages, recorded men when there child(named in the Bible) was born. Prophesy in the Masoretic Text says a young girl, in the King James it says "a virgin". That one alteration, thankfully, did not make it into the King James.

[@millennialinmanila5621]

Just an observation, if you age the earth based on their ages maybe we are missing a lot of time as Adam and Eve only started to count their age after they sinned and that is when God cursed them that they will die, hence we cannot count their age before they sinned as they were immortal at that time. My point is, this counting system (if ever this is accurate) would only give us the idea of when they committed the sin and not the age of the earth. I believe in a literal 6 days creation and the 7th day being the resting day but we can never tell how long Adam and Eve live before they sinned as they are not counting their age as they were immortal and not aging before they sinned.

Fossils which actually predated the emergence of man by millions of years were ignorantly explained as the relics left behind at the time of "Noah's Flood". In 1785, James Hutton published his Theory of the Earth, which posited a very old, non-biblical earth. His theory was confirmed by Charles Lyell in his Principles of Geology (1830), the first textbook of the modern science of geology. Lyell argued that all existing theories of the origin of the earth, including those compatible with the Bible, were untenable. He demonstrated that the earth's origin and history could be explained naturally and discussed scientifically. Lyell's revolutionary book undermined religious belief, just as Darwin did later when he published On the Origin of Species and The Descent of Man. Geology, biology, and paleontology have consigned the biblical account of "creation" to the dustbin of archaic myth.

Hi. Hebrew is my 1st language. The word יום literally means a day, nothing else. Maybe what the scholar you spoke to meant, is that in jewish tradition, the sun moon and stars were not placed in their placements till wednesday, but that light/energy/radiation was created on the 1st day, and so if we measure "a day" by the earth's 24 hour roatation on its axis and relation to the sun, what then are the "days" considered before wednesday? Are they 24 hour periods just without the traditional understanding of a day being daytime and night time, or were they diff measures of time. But when the Torah says ויהי ערב ויהי בוקר יום אחד "It was evening/mixture and it was morning/order, one day" the word is literal, its "day". Scripture always refers to Yom as day, never as something more. (Reason i wrote evening/mixture is bc the hebrew word for evening ערב comes from עירבוב which means disorder, while the word for morning בוקר comes from ביקורת which means to put into order. In kabbala tradition, in the evening God took what was disorder and made it into order, each day with its specfics).

[@Yehonatan613]

@@koolaidman4461 according to Jewish tradition, from the 6th day of creation till now it is exactly 5782 years (meaning, the earth orbiting around the sun those exact times). However, during the year of the flood the system of the orbits were on total hold/pause, as the verse says in Genesis 8:22 which implies that during the flood all that is mentioned in that verse was on pause/on hold. The methods in which deeptime and old earth scientists use rely strictly on the assumption that he laws of physics have always been the same since creation (or what they would call the big bang), but in our traditon, that is absolutely false/untrue, meaning, we know for a fact (in our 3300+ year old traditon, having nothing to do with proving the earth or universes age) that the laws of physics as we know them today changed dramatically at diff times. 1stly, that the laws of physics themselves during the 1st 5 1/2 days of creation were not AT ALL set laws as we have them today. Then on the 6th day itself when adam was created the laws of physics changed even more. Then after adams sin the laws of physics changed but did not yet become what they are today, and all the way till the flood reality and the laws that govern reality were still totally diff than what they are today. [Thats why before the flood everyone lived such long lives while right after the flood everyones lives dwindled greatly, so much so that at the end of Genesis when pharo asks Jacob how old he was, pharo was in total shock at how old Jacob was]. After the flood and after God recreated existence under a new order, reality became more or less what it is today and what we know it as today. Also need to take into account for example the miracle that happened for Joshua where the sun was set in the sky for many more hours, in which altho that event was still one day, that one day was many more hours than a normal day etc. However i must say tho, in our tradition, the 1st 6 days are literal 24 hour days. Altho the laws of physics and reality then is totally diff that what it is now, relativity, still from being alive then, it was a literal 24 hour period. Were those hours and moments expanded and much more than what we experience now? Acc to our tradition, yes. In our tradition, what they were able to accomplish in one day, would take us many years to accomplish now in this new after the flood system of reality. In our tradition (in the talmud) during the flood even the stars and whole constellations in space were moved by God, causing for a total new reality than what it was before hand. So the assumption that the laws of physics have always been at a constant is exactly that, a assumption, which our authentic tradition from moses says is a false assumption. Kind of like those verses from Iyov (Job) where God asks him "were you there when I created everything?" Meaning, who are you mere flesh and blood that you make assmptions and conclusions, were you there to know how I made everything? No, you weren't. The Q to any non-believer should then be "why do you assume you know how God made His universe? You don't, and your assumptions are based on the preconception that God didn't wish to have a ready universe and earth in 6 days, but thats your own disservice, bc you from the onset reject, blind yourself, and lock yourself out from the potential actual truth, and the real Q is, why? If God wanted a ready universe and earth in 6 days, OBVIOUSLY it would require that the laws of nature be different than what they are now, so why do you approach with a anti-God preconception/agenda?"

@@perrysaker1526, the answers are out there. Google it. As for all fossils being the same age because they're all made of rock, you are partly correct. After the animal dies and is entombed, the living tissues are leached out and replaced by minerals dissolved in groundwater. Those minerals were derived from the rock, and if tested using a radiometric technique will return the age of the original rock - not the age of the fossil. So the fossil ages must be measured by testing the age of the context in which they were found, by other means. So the rock stratum in which a fossil is found can be dated, and the age of the fossils it contains can be deduced from that. But note that rock is not all of the same age: Radiometric testing will distinguish a rock formed when the earth cooled from one which was created following a volcanic event. So a fossiliferous layer can be dated, for instance, by measuring the ages of volcanic rocks above and below it, to "bracket" the age of any fossils it contains. It's not difficult to understand, just google it.

One needs to realize that the nearly "two centuries of evidence based science" is a science that is required -a priori- to come up with an explanation that rules out the possibility of divine intervention. But real science requires confirmation by testing, not merely testing for consistency of logic or mathematics, but testing that can be observed and measured. Where has science confirmed by observation that life (not just life-like) can come from non-life, even if "ideal" conditions are set up by intelligent scientists? Science long thought that geologic formation could be formed only over very long periods of time, but the evidence is moving even atheist scientists to conclude that many land forms had to have formed rapidly during catastrophic events. Note, too that the argument here is not what does science tell us, but what does the Bible say? The Bible also says that God is almighty. While modern science knows of no person that has lived anywhere close to 900 years, if God is almighty he could well have made it possible at that time. Secular science, constrained as it is by its naturalistic dogma, will continue to insist on great ages for the earth. But science that is not so constrained has been finding evidence that can be reasonably explained in ways that fit with the Biblical timeline. Mt. St. Helens showed how rapidly stratification can happen. What I find most telling, however, is your last sentence. You fall back on the favorite tool of the gainsayers: an attempt at ridicule. You dismiss the idea of long life spans as folly without even asking for an explanation.

No.. But instead, the slave was given a residence in which to live in, protected and nurtured in exchange for loyal service. as slaves helped ease the burden placed on society and its masters through manual labour. Of course we have the benefit of modern machinery and life has become easier. So there is no need for slavery in this modern era. But the Holy bible gives us a reference point, where we see the beginning of this great work, that will eventually lead to the establishment of institutions in the future. This is proof of God’s work. This great work, which treated the slave with respect and dignity, has led to the establishment of modern institutions being established, to care for the disadvantaged.

@@repunklican1181 the problem is that you're trying to put natural limitations on God, who is a super natural being. So he can generate light without the sun and stars, he created light in the first place. In the Bible, when God manifests himself, he often appears as a blinding light. Moses was blinded for days, and his face glowed just from seeing the light of God indirectly while hiding behind a rock. God exists outside of nature, therefore He is not bound by the laws of nature. He created the laws of nature, which we are bound by. The premise of trying to impose natural restrictions on a supernatural God is silly.

[@raydawgrules]

Jeff...This is what makes the most sense if we believe in the Bible. That everything that was created was created aged to bear fruit and multiply. I do not necessarily believe the original gap theory, but taking away chapters and verses and reading it as it was intended; there are two pluralities in the beginning and the end of creation. In our modern bibles it’s Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 2:1. Nowhere I know (although there could be) you will find 2 pluralities regarding the same subject. If we just accept Gen 2:1 as the creation plurality then 1:1 can have an alternate meaning which can also mean he created the 3rd heaven (his throne) and the earth (his footstool). This analogy is written all over the scriptures (the heaven is his throne and earth his footstool). Early translations such as the Tindale translation translates Gen 1:1 heavens as “the heaven”, which can mean the 3rd heaven. That being said, the earth earth could have been dormant for years (if it was referencing his footstool). Job states the sons of God rejoiced when he created the foundation of the earth which means the 3rd heaven existed prior. Also the land was there but under the water. So if it was in a dormant state until he decided to form it than it could be older. Just another theory that makes sense to me since the Bible is full of verses that equate the heaven being his throne and the earth his footstool. Enjoy your day.

I am a Christian… and this question does not shake my faith in Jesus as I have seen too many miracles in my life both personally and as a nurse… but I have to know as I love Science also, what about the ice cores? Thoughts on that? And are we sure the Bible claims that the Earth is 6000 so years old here? Maybe the actual material under the surface parts of the earth took some time to develop? And does time not differ between within this world and when you travel outside the world into space?? And what was the original Greek word for “day” and how does that translate? Just asking cause I truly want to know

[@PJRayment]

"what about the ice cores?" They are drill cores of layers of ice. "And are we sure the Bible claims that the Earth is 6000 so years old here?" Yes. The Bible provides time periods, i.e. a chronology, from the start of creation up to later times, such as the building of the temple. Adding up those time periods gives about 3000 years to the temple, which we know was build about 1000 BC, i.e. about 3000 years ago. "And what was the original Greek word for “day” and how does that translate? Just asking cause I truly want to know" The Old Testament was written (mostly) in Hebrew, not in Greek, and the word is _yom._ It basically means exactly the same as the English word 'day', which means that it can mean a 24-hour period, the daylight portion of a 24-hour period, or, as a figure of speech, an indeterminate length of time. All three meanings can be seen in this sentence: "In my grandfather's *day* it took six *days* to drive across Australia, driving only during the *day.* " But despite the word having three different meanings in that sentence, you would understand each distinct meaning, and you can't arbitrarily substitute meanings. For example, it would be nonsense to understand that as saying "In my father's 24-hour period, it took six indeterminate lengths of time to drive..." Context is the key, and one of the clues is that when the word is associated with a number, it always carries the 24-hour-period meaning. Essentially the same applies with _yom._ And in Genesis, the word is associated with a number, as in "the first day", "the second day", etc. But if that's not enough for you, Genesis 1 also actually _defines_ the word: "evening and morning were the first day", etc. And there's more! Exodus 20:11 equates the working week with the creation week, and the working week is comprised of ordinary (24-hour) days, of course. Yes, time travels at a different rate, not just in space, but even on earth. It varies according to the velocity of the traveller (say, in a rocket) and also according to gravity. So atomic clocks on the tops of mountains measure time at a (very slightly) different rate than clocks at sea level, because at the top of the mountain gravity is slightly less. However, the Bible, as a revelation to man, would be using earth-based times that man throughout history understood.

(This theory finds it purpose in eliminating any accountability to God.) The billions of years theory is in conflict with every branch of science that exists, except for evolution falsely called science. For example Evolutionist claim that diamonds were made some 200 km below the earths surface and are billions of years old. Yet they contain Carbon 14 isotopes that have a half life of 5730 years. They can't be more than thousands of years old or all of the Carbon 14 would have disappeared. Yet evolutionists still hold onto their millions and billions...
