_____
1656 years (before the flood)
-THE FLOOD (2348 BC)
-AFTER THE DELUGE
Genesis 11
1658 Arphaxad is born (two years after the flood)
1693 Shelah born
1723 Eber born
1757 Peleg born (for in his days was the earth divided; Genesis 10:25
Noah’s sons were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. The sons of Ham were Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.
Egyptians originally descended from Mizraim, Noah’s grandson (Genesis 10:6).
During the life of Peleg which was 239 years, the earth was divided.
Some time before Peleg's death the tower of Babel construction was interrupted, and men were divided due to language barriers.
Not long after the tower of Babel, the civilizations of Babylon, Egypt, Assyrian, Hittite and Greece began.
* Known ancient historical documents that pertain or mention Peleg's time
1. Alexander the Great defeated Darius, and afterward he journeyed to Babylon.
Alexander received astronomical observations which dated 1903 years of history from the Chaldeans.
They claimed these astronomical observations dated back to the founding of Babylon, which would bring us to just 13 years after the birth of Peleg.(1)
2. Cambyses, king of Persia, conquered Egypt in 526 BC.
A Byzantine chronicler Constantinus Manasses wrote that the Egyptian state lasted 1663 years, counting backwards gives us a date of 60 years after the birth of Peleg, when the Egyptian civilization began. (2)
3.Egyptian historian, Manetho, recorded the civilization of Egypt began 5 years after the birth of Peleg.(3)
4. Abraham and Sarah visited Egypt, due to famine in Canaan, 27 years after the death of Peleg.
5.An early Arabic work known as Kitab al-Magall (4) -States that Nimrod built the towns
and began his reign as king over earth when Reu was 163, and that he reigned for 69 years.
In addition, Nimrod built, Nisibis, Raha (Edessa) and Harran when Peleg was 50, which would be 1807 on the timeline.
The Bible makes it clear that the beginning of Nimrod's kingdom started in Babel.
So Nimrod building Nisibis, Edessa and Harran in 1807, means dispersion at the tower of Babel probably happened before this date.
Genesis 10:8
And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
9He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is said,
Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD.
10And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
11Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh,
and the city Rehoboth, and Calah, 12And Resen between Nineveh and Calah: the same is a great city.
Erech was one of the greatest cities of Sumer, which was an ancient Mesopotamian city located northwest of Ur in southeastern Iraq.
Accad was the capital of the Akkadian Empire, which was the dominant political force in Mesopotamia
at the end of the third millennium, but the capitol of Accad is unknown, it also was located in the
area of southeastern Iraq.
Shem's son Asshur, left this area, as Genesis 10:11 states," Out of that land went forth Asshur."
and he built Nineveh,Rehoboth, and Calah.
Asshur may have wanted to separate himself from the Babylonian area,and from Nimrod himself,
so he left the area, or he was so enamored with Nimrod, that he spread his kingdom by helping build
his cities for him.
Asshur was the Father of the Assyrians. An ancient city of Ashur is located on the Tigris River in northern Mesopotamia. The city dates back to the 3rd millennium BC.
These ancient historians in different times and in different places have confirmed the amazing accuracy of the biblical genealogies, it is extremely uncanny that these historians all point to Peleg's birth.
Mesopotamia was the area people migrated from, congregating first at Babel, which is located in Shinar.
Although the tower construction of Babel was interrupted, due to language barriers, we would see the migration of people leaving this area, and the creation of empires shortly thereafter.
Geographically the closer the empire was from Shinar, the earlier the empire would arise. Civilization would have slowly spread by migrations from Babel.
Most scholars agree that Ur was the Sumerian city, today Tall al-Muqayyar (or Mughair),
about 200 miles southeast of Baghdad in lower Mesopotamia, Babylon is located 53 mile south of Baghdad.
Babylon would be one of the first empires formed, along with the Akkadian empire, then Asshur, who left and went northward and built Harran and Nineveh. Egypt would arise soon thereafter.
Jewish and Islamic traditions, both refer to Terah and Nimrod and confrontations between Abraham and Nimrod, although the Bible does not mention it. It is possible that some of these traditions hold some merit. Terah migrating from, Ur of the Chaldees would have been aware of Nimrod.
Terah, Abraham, Sarah and Lot emigrated from Ur of the Chaldees on the road into the land of Canaan,
but stopped in Harran, which is where Terah died and the call of God on Abraham's life and the promise
was given.
Cush was the first born of Ham. Nimrod, was the first born of Cush. Shem, Ham and Japheth, were married before the flood, and Arphaxad,( second generation) son of Shem, was born 2 years after the flood. Using the genealogy from the line of Shem to Terah, (Abraham's father), we can see that 8 generations were born, from one of Noah's 3 sons.
The descendants of (Genesis 10) Ham were Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan, these four men are all second generation sons also, but they are sons of Ham. Arphaxad, was the Grandson of Noah, as well as Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.
So, to be completely fair minded with these dates, I chose to add the fall of Babel 5 years after the birth of Peleg, and the rise of Egypt 60 years after his birth. In addition to Egypt, adding the rise of Babylon 13 years after Peleg, which would be apparent, since Babylon would be the closer region.
Although the rise of these kingdom's or empire's might in time need correction, due to archaeological discoveries, the dates for these biblical genealogies are set in concrete.
I have not stretched the ages, or shortened any genealogy to get it to fit a preconceived idea.
1770 Beginning of the Babylonian Empire
1787 Reu born
1817 Beginning of the Egyptian Empire
1819 Serug born
1849 Nahor born
1878 Terah born
1908 Nimrod born
1938 Nimrod King of Babylon
1948 ABRAM BORN
* Ussher claims that Abram was born 60 years later, The Bible says otherwise.
and Terah lived seventy years,and begat Abram, Nahor and Haran (Gen 11:26)
1958 Sarah born
1973 Abram & Sarai married
1985 Old Assyrian Period begins:
1993 Tower of Babel
1996 Fall of Babel
1996 Peleg dies (239 years)
1997 Nahor dies ( 148 years)
2006 NOAH DIES (Abraham is 58)
* Some interesting facts come to light with this new information. Abraham was 58 when Noah died, and Noah was alive when the tower of Babel happened and the languages were changed.
IT is a strong possibility that Abraham was also alive at the time of the language changes, and he remained in the area until after Noah died
2023 Abraham leaves Harran: God's promise to Abraham Genesis 12: 1-4
Harran dates back to the 3rd millennium, it would eventually become an ideal location, situated along a trade route with easy access to both the Assyrian and Babylonian roads.It lays directly on the road eastward to Nisibis and Ninevah.

**Joseph was 30 when he was appointed vizier over Egypt
7 years of plenty made him 37
It was the 2nd year of the famine (Genesis 47:6) Jacob entered Egypt making Joseph 39 years old.
Jacob was 130 years old when he entered Egypt
215 years transpired from the PROMISE God had given to Abraham in Harran to the time that Jacob entered Egypt close to the beginning of the Egyptian Empire and Joseph, who became vizier in Egypt.
making Joseph a likely candidate for Imhotep. * Read Joesph as possible candidate for Imhotep.
The idea that Israel was in bondage in Egypt for 430 years is totally incorrect.
The time span is too huge of a gap and we can't fit a small amount of generations (4) into that 430 years.
We have scripture that disputes that idea.
And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.Galatians 3:17
Paul is claiming that the law came 430 years after the promise was given, the only promise we can link it too is the promise God gave to Abraham in Harran.
The law came 430 years AFTER...after what?..after bondage?..it doesn't say that at all
After can only be linked to the PROMISE.
Sometime AFTER all of Israel was in Egypt, (after the death of Joseph) is when Israel went into bondage.
When Jacob entered he was treated close to royalty, along with all of Josephs family members as Joseph was second in command over the whole nation of Israel!
This was no small matter! it is also ignored that Egypt became great BECAUSE OF JOSEPH.
People forget that not only was Joesph a real literal person, but much of his life is a typology of Christ.
Joesph is Governor over IT ALL, or over all that mattered in that world at that time, and Joseph's family was treated accordingly..Not under bondage, not treated badly whatsoever..BUT HONORED!
Moses was born from the tribe of Levi and Levi went into Egypt with the rest of his brothers and Jacob..
It was sometime after Joseph died that the trouble and slavery began. Joseph did not die until he was 110 years old, being the youngest of the brothers , besides Benjamin.
Joseph had children while he was in Egypt so we can assume that Joseph's own older brothers also had children and some of his brother's may have even had grandchildren.
Levi could have already had his son Kohath before he ever went into Egypt.
Kohath was the Father of Amram who was the father of Moses and Aaron..
You can't fit 430 years into the bondage of Egypt!
The 430 years applies to the promise made in Harran between God and Abraham (2023AM) and the 430 years was over the day of the Exodus.
JOESPH AS POSSIBLE CANDIDATE FOR IMHOTEP
"Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou. And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt. And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt."
Genesis 41:40-44
Pharaoh Djoser were found. The base was inscribed with the names of Djoser and of Imhotep.
"Imhotep, Chancellor of the King of Lower Egypt, Chief under the King, Administrator of the Great Palace, Hereditary Lord, High Priest of Heliopolis, Imhotep the Builder, the Sculptor, the Maker of Stone Vases..."
In the inscription, records information of 7 years of plenty and 7 years of famine, and the dreams of Pharaoh, and a tax that was imposed on Egypt, in which the Bible also records. Massive grain silos were also built at this time.
"So Joseph died, being an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt. But, when the children of Israel left during the Exodus, his bones were taken with them:"
Genesis 50:26
And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for he had straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you." Exodus 13:19
A tomb in Egypt has been found that contained many mummified Ibis birds suggesting it could have been Imhoteps tomb. The Sarcophagus was empty. Interestingly, the Sarcophagus was not orientated to the North as was the custom of Egyptians who worshiped the Sun God. The mummy of Imhotep has never been found.
THE PROMISE
Genesis 12:1 Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred,
and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:
2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all
families of the earth be blessed.
4 So Abram departed, as the Lord had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him:
and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.
Paul says that the law came 430 years after the promise (Gal. 3:17)
"The Promise" was made before Abraham left Harran in 2023.
The Septuagint reads as follows: (5)
Exodus 12:40
40 And the sojourning of the children of Israel, while they sojourned in the land of Egypt
and the land of Chanaan, was 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.
42 It is a watch kept to the Lord, so that he should bring them out of the land of Egypt;
that very night is a watch kept to the Lord, so that it should be to all the children of Israel to their generations.
Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He saith not,
And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
Now this I say: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law—which came four hundred and thirty years AFTER—doth not disannul, so as to make the promise of none effect Galatians,(3:16-17).
What Paul is stating here, is the promise God made with Abraham starts the 430 year clock.
Also only four generation were born in Egypt. (Genesis 15:16)
430 years began with God’s promise to Abraham, 215 years had passed when Jacob entered Egypt.
(Gen. 12:1-4) the 430 years ended with the giving of the law, which was the same year as the Exodus.
So to find the year of the Exodus we simply add 430 years, after Abraham received the promise.
480 years passed from the time of the Exodus to Solomon's temple (1 Kings 6:1)
And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel
were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Zif,
which is the second month, that he began to build the house of the Lord.
