Fascinating information and thanks for that - I knew we were closer to year 6000. Why are the Jews off by 210 years? (5776)7000 years from the Creation to the Completion of Mankind:
Genesis 1:27 Adam was created in 3970.5 BCE
Gen 5:3 Seth +130, Gen 5:6 Enoch +105, Gen 5:9 Kenan +90, Gen 5:12 Mahalalel +70, Gen 5:15 Jared +65, Gen 5:18 Enoch +162, Gen 5:21 Methuselah +65, Gen 5:25 Lamech +187, Gen 5:28 Noah+182, Gen 6:7 The Flood came when Noah was +600, Gen 11:10
Our year 2314.5 BCE
Arpachshad +2 - born to Shem after the flood. Gen 11:12 Selah +35, Gen 11:14 Heber +30, Gen 11:16 Peleg +34, Gen 11:18 Reu +30, Gen 11:20 Serug +32, Gen 11:22 Nahor +30 , Gen 11:24 Terah +29, Gen 11:26 Abram +70, Abram was +52 when God called him and they left Ur. Our year 1070.5 BCE He lived in Haran for 23 years, then went to Canaan at age 75. Genesis 12:4 Total years so far = 2000
Gen 17:1, Abraham was 99 when the Covenant was made with God. +47 Genesis
17:1-8
Galatians 3:17 Paul states that the Torah was given +430 after the Covenant. Total years elapsed until the Exodus – 2477, in our year 1493.5 BCE. [Many ancient records say Comet Typhon passed close the earth at that time. It was the cause of many of the disasters in Egypt.]
1 Kings 6:1 The Temple construction starts, in the 4th year of King Solomon +480 since Torah and the Exodus.. 1 Kings 11:42 Solomon 40 minus 4 = +36, 1 Kings 14:21 Rehoboam +17, 1 Kings 15:2 Abijah +3, 2 Chron 16:13 Asa +41, 1 Kings 22:42 Jehoshaphat +25, 2 Kings 8:17 Jehoram +8, 2 Kings 8:26 Ahaziah +1, 2 Kings 11:1-3 Athaliah +6, 2 Kings 12:1-3 Joash +40, 2 Kings 14:1-2 Amaziah +29, 2 Kings 15:1-2 Azariah +52, 2 Kings 15:32 Jotham +16, 2 Kings 16:1-2 Ahaz +16, 2 Kings 18:1-2 Hezekiah +29, 2 Kings 21:1 Manasseh +55, 2 Kings 21:19 Amon +2, 2 Kings 22:1-2 Josiah +31, 2 Kings 22:31 Jehoahaz +3mths, 2 Kings 23:31 Jehoiakim +11, 2 Kings 24:8 Jehoichin +3mths, 2 Kings 24:18 Zedekiah +11, who ruled until the Babylonian captivity in our year 586 BCE.
Total elapsed years to the first exile of Judah = 3386.5
586 BCE + 613.5 years + 2 comes to 29.5 CE, the date of Jesus’ baptism.Luke 3:1 Plus 2 to include the total number of elapsed years, as our calendar system counts years from their commencement. 3386.5 + 613.5 = 4000 years.
Jan. 2016 CE - 29.5 CE = 1986.5 years since the commencement of Jesus’ Ministry.
1986.5 + 4000 =5986.5 years, is where we are now. 5986.5 + 13.5 = 6000 years.
2016 CE + 13.5 = 2029.5 CE Exactly 2000 years to the end of the present Church age. 4000 since Abraham and 6000 since Adam.
It isn't my intention to promote dates for any future happening, just to present the time periods as given in our Bibles, coupled with known historical dates.
Maybe your calculations are off by ten years and if the Great Tribulation begins this year and lasts 3.5 years it will end at 6000. I don't have a problem with waiting another ten years for this to happen - it's probable. I just think something is going to happen before Obama gets out of office or at least by 2018 (70 years added to 1948). He made a joke during his last speech the other day that Michelle Bachman said he was going to bring about the "End of days"! Unbeknownst to him, he may just suffer a blow to the head and 3 days later be possessed by Satan. ???
