But before God began creating, the earth was formless and void, it was there.
Now you’re saying that God either began creating before the first day or that God didn’t create the earth at all.

I apologize if a topic already exists on this subject somewhere I did a search for the subject and couldn't find a topic with the title that was recently created. My question is simple. According to Jewish history Adam and Eve and thus the universe were created 5,784 years ago. Modern Creation science dates the Earth somewhere between 6,000 and 10,000 years old, just how close is the Jewish Calandar to actual biblical truth?
By my personal calculation based on the genealogies given in Gen 5 and Gen 11, and assuming that the general consensus that the Exodus occurred in 1446 BC, the current year from Creation is 5927. If you would like the Excel spreadsheet in which I have laid out my research, I would be happy to share it via email (as it is too large to post here and does not condense into a PDF well at all).
