  • Biblical Chronology: Legend Or Science? the Ethel M
    James Barr, Biblical Chronology: Legend Or Science? The Ethel M. Wood Lecture 1987. Delivered at the Senate House, University of London on 4 March 1987. London: University of London, 1987. Pbk. ISBN: 7187088644. pp.19. Biblical Chronology: Legend Or Science? James Barr, FBA Regius Professor of Hebrew, University of Oxford The Ethel M. Wood Lecture 1987 Delivered at the Senate House, University of London on 4 March 1987 [p.1] The subject of biblical chronology can be seen in two quite different ways. Firstly, there is scientific or historical chronology, which deals with the real chronology of actual events. This is the way in which the subject is approached in most current books, articles and encyclopaedias.1 You may ask, for instance, in what year Jesus was born, or in what year John the Baptist began his preaching; and the way to approach this is to consider the years in which Augustus or Tiberius was Roman emperor, in which Herod was king of Judaea, in which Quirinius conducted a census in Syria, and to try to set the relevant gospel stories in relation with these. If you were successful, you would end up with a date in years BC or AD, for example 4 BC which was long the traditional date for the birth of Jesus (since it was the year in which Herod the Great died), although most recent estimates end up with a date some years earlier.2 Or you might ask what was the year in which Solomon’s temple was destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar, and you might produce the result of 586 BC, on the basis of historical data which could be mustered and verified historically.

  • First-Century Chronology
    End Times Prophecy 314: First-Century Chronology biblestudying.net Brian K. McPherson and Scott McPherson Copyright 2012 The First-Century Apostolic Understanding of Chronology Below are three premises that we want to discuss and compare in this brief study. 1. The apostles understood the amount of time from creation to Christ to include around 4,000 years. 2. Statements in the New Testament indicate that the apostles felt that Christ’s return could occur in the first century AD. 3. The apostles taught that the creation week which was composed of six days of work followed by a seventh day of rest would be paralleled in the course of history such that the kingdom of Christ would include a millennial reign of Christ on earth which was proceeded by 6,000 years of history starting at creation itself. The first statement is probably taken for granted, but may not often be the focus of much discussion and it may not have much doctrinal significance other than its inclusion under the larger concept that the apostles accurately understood all biblical teaching. The second statement articulates a very common perception that can be derived from certain plain statements that occur in the New Testament. There is no inherent difficulty with simultaneously accepting both these two conclusions. However, once we add the third point into the discussion, contradiction arises. For, if the apostles understood 4,000 years had occurred prior to Christ’s first coming and they believed that Christ could return in the first century AD then they could not have taught that Christ’s return and his kingdom could only occur after 6,000 years of history.

  • Chronology of the Bible
    CHRONOLOGY OF THE BIBLE 2009 SUMMER BIBLE STUDY Murray Road Church of Christ Lee’s Summit, MO Dennis Stanley [email protected] 1 2 Chronology of the Bible - Overview Why study the chronology of the Bible? To gain a more in-depth understanding and appreciation of the Bible. Ground Rules and Assumptions: • The Bible, as we have it today in our common translations, is accurate. • Supplemental sources of information will be used to complement what the Bible tells us, not to contradict the Bible. • Apparent contradictions in the Bible are a result of an imperfect understanding on our part and are not due to an error in the Bible. We will make an attempt to understand and resolve these but may not be successful in all cases. Chronological Periods Genesis • Generations of Adam. • Generations of Seth. Sojourn in Egypt through the conquest of Canaan • How to interpret 430 year sojourn (Ex 12:40-41, Gal 3:17, Acts 7:6). • Hebrew calendars of offerings and feasts. Period of the Judges • Reconciling 480 yrs of 1 Kings 6:1 with timeline of Judges and Paul’s reference to 450 yrs in Acts 13:20. • Ruth. Kings of Israel & Judah • Including chronology of the Prophets of Israel & Judah. • Synchronizing Bible chronology with secular chronology – assigning dates to Biblical events. Fall of Jerusalem and Babylonian Captivity • Chronology of the events in the final chapters of 2 Kings, 2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah & Esther. • 70 years prophecy. • Prophets of the captivity and post-exilic periods. Between the Old & New Testaments • Prophecies of Daniel fulfilled concerning Persia, Greek and Rome.

  • Geography and Historiography Indeed but Also Linguistics—There Is Real Problem of Vocabulary— Philosophy, Theology, Etc
    Asian Review of World Histories 3:1 (January 2015), 11-35 © 2015 The Asian Association of World Historians doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.12773/arwh.2015.3.1.011 Writing World History: Which World? Jean-François SALLES University Lumière Lyon 2 Lyon, France [email protected] Abstract Far from being a recent world, the concept of “a [one] world” did slowly emerged in a post-prehistoric Antiquity. The actual knowledge of the world increased through millennia leaving aside large continents (Americas, part of Africa, Australia, etc.—most areas without written history), and writing history in Antiquity cannot be a synchronal presentation of the most ancient times of these areas. Through a few case studies dealing with texts, ar- chaeology and history itself mostly in BCE times, the paper will try to perceive the slow building-up of a physical awareness and ‘mor- al’ consciousness of the known world by people of the Middle East (e.g. the Bible, Gilgamesh) and the Mediterranean (mainly Greeks).

  • From Adam to Jesus (Timeline)
    From Adam to Jesus.qxp_Layout 1 11/21/16 10:31 AM Page AA Above that line are shown the lives of the other descendants of Adam and Eve, which feature all the well-known characters FROM from the Book of Genesis. This runs to the life of Moses and the Exodus from Egypt that led to the entry of the Hebrews to the Promised Land. By this time mankind had increased to such numbers that they are impossible to fit on the chart, so from this point only the kings of the Jewish kingdoms are shown, ADAM including Jesus’ two illustrious ancestors, King David and King Solomon. The dating system used in this book takes as its starting-point TO the traditional chronology of the Bible, believing that the Earth was created some 6,000 years ago. The chronology was calculated by Archbishop James Ussher. Ussher was Bishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland, a theologian of great repute, in the seventeenth century (his ESUS contemporary reputation being evidenced by the fact that he was J give a state funeral on the orders of Oliver Cromwell). His famous CREATION TO CRUCIFIXION work, Annales veteris testamenti, a prima mundi origine deducti (Annals of the Old Testament, deduced from the first origins of the world) was published in two volumes, in 1650 and 1654, and presented a chronological interpretation of Biblical events that won general acceptance. The publisher Thomas Guy (1644–1724), founder of the famous Guy’s Hospital in London, first began incorporating the Ussher chronology in his Bibles in 1675, and in 1701 the Church of England also adopted Ussher’s framework for the Authorized Version (King James).

REDEKER 1971 (Including later additions in 1976, 1986, 1995 and 2002) ZION’S TOWER of the MORNING P.O. 3261 Southfield, MI 48037 _______________True Bible Chronology, Page 4 Publisher’s Foreword When we first published this study in 1971, we felt that it would be both a blessing and a help to the Lord’s consecrated people. Many years have passed since this was done and we must say that we are of the conviction that these Truths are as true today as they were when first presented. Our gratitude continues for this most excellent and accurate way in which Brother Charles F. Redeker both analyzed and produced this great and most wonderful document. Here we are in the year 2002. While there has not been too much of note in the area of chronology, yet some things of significance have happened. We know that “we have a more sure Word of prophecy; whereunto we do well that we take heed as unto a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawn [the promised Millennium] and the daystar [early star of Christ’s presence] arise in our hearts.” (2 Pet. 1:19) We truly, as well, “have not followed cunningly devised fables” but have a solid foundation in the Word of the LORD. (2 Pet 1:16) The description of the measurements of the Great Pyramid in Egypt, in addition to the prophetic dates, help to establish both confidence and faith in the surety of those things mentioned in the Bible relative to the chronology.
