Estimates of the date of Creation Archbishop Ussher calculated his chronology in 1654 A.D. and published it in the book "The Annales Veteris et Novi Testamenti". It is based on the masoretic text. The date of creation was calculated as Sunday, October 23, 4004 BC. The Ussher dates were used before the birth of Christ. The bold dates are the exact dates found, I calculated the others. After this date I entered the number of elapsed years since creation according to the Ussher chronology. The Hebrew calendar estimates the day of Creation as Sunday, September 6, 3761 BC (Tishri 1). The dating comes from the compilers of the Seder Haddoroth. There is a discrepancy of about 240 years. I cannot explain why they are so many years behind. Some have speculated that they wanted to place the year 4000 during the time of the Bar Kokaba revolt in 132. But this cannot be correct because the math does not accommodate this explanation. ** Other sources say that the date of 3761 BC is the date of the origin of the calendar (235 years after Adam). The date of creation is therefore 3996 BC and the year 2005 is 6000 years since creation. Year 0.0.0.0.0 in the Mayan calendar is August 11 or August 13, 3114 BC. The Big Bang theory estimates the origin of the universe as 13.7 ± 0.2 billion years ago. 9600 BC Zoroastrianism says that the world will last 12,000 years. It will end in 2400 A.D. March 20-26, 4001 BC. Eugene Faulstich, of the Chronology-History Research Institute used the fact that biblical months always began on the evening of a new moon, and that years began on a vernal equinox. So he calculated moon phases and vernal equinoxes, eclipses and compared these to the bible and historical lists of kings and astronomical data. An unusual alignment of planets occurred in 4001 BC. I have not seen the work but the methodology sounds like an accurate method of calculating elapsed time since the creation. Since astronomical events occur often, there is still a chance that an historical event can be assigned to the wrong year.

I calculated these dates by myself before comparing them to other chronologies. Birth Records. Adding the ages of fathers at the birth of their sons using the bible records. The problem is the number of months that are not recorded as the age of the father when he had the son. The cumulative effect would be a longer period. For each generation a significant time of half year to almost a year could be added. The error would therefore range from a lower limit multiplied by the number of generation and a higher limit of eleven multiplied by the total generations. That is ten years from Adam to Noah. Elapsed Time. Bible records of elapsed time between major events of the exodus. 430 years lived in Egypt. Now the time that the sons of Israel lived in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years. (Exodus 12: 40) 430 years: The Ten Commandments. What I am saying is this: the Law, which came four hundred and thirty years later, does not invalidate a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to nullify the promise. (Galatians 3: 17) The Ten Commandments were given about 50 days after the Exodus. 400 years of Slavery in Egypt. God said to Abram, Know for certain that your descendants will be strangers in a land that is not theirs, where they will be enslaved and oppressed four hundred years. (Genesis 15: 13) After the Fourth Generation. Then in the fourth generation they will return here, for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet complete. (Genesis 15: 16) We find the following genealogy in Exodus 6: 16-20. Jacob (Israel). He lived to be 147 years old. He entered Egypt at age 130. (Genesis 47: 28) Levi. He lived to be 137 years old. They entered Egypt during his life. Kohath. He lived to be 133 years old. Amram. He lived to be 137 years old. Moses. The fourth generation and the youngest child. He lived to be 120 years old. And the exodus occurred when he was 80. It is obvious that at these ages the fifth, sixth and probably seventh generations were alive. But the reference to the fourth generation probably means that all twelve tribes had a fourth generation at the time of the Exodus. Jacob (147 Years) Free Slaves Exodus 47 Years 43 Years Joseph Sold - Food Famine Egypt 13 Years 400 Years - - 17 Years Slave 13 Years Governor 10 Years 17 Years 13 Years 400 Years Single 10 Sons Joseph (110 Years) Genesis 47: 28 Israel 17 Years Old. Joseph sold into slavery by his ten older brothers. (Genesis 37: 2) 28 Years Old. He was in jail at least 2 more years after interpreting dreams. (Genesis 41: 1) 30 Years Old. Joseph becomes governor of Egypt. (Genesis 41: 46) 37 Years Old. After seven years of plenty. (Genesis 41: 53) 39-40 Years Old. Early years of famine. Joseph reunited with his brothers and father who was 130. (Genesis 47: 28) 110 Years Old. Joseph dies. (Genesis 50: 26) It is possible that the four hundred and thirty years of slavery includes the years spent by Joseph as a slave. The four hundred years of slavery of the twelve tribes began after Joseph died at the age of 110 (Genesis 50: 26 and Exodus 1: 6-14) or after they came to Egypt. Jacob ran away from home after the age of forty, because years earlier his twin brother married heathen women at the age of forty (Genesis 26: 34). He worked for seven years before He got married after the age of 47. Leah had six sons and one daughter before Rachel. The two concubines had a total of four sons also. So it took a minimum of ten years before Joseph was born. Joseph was the eleventh son who was born when His father was about 90 years old. Then Joseph was sold into slavery when he was a young boy, about 17 years old. (Genesis 37: 2) He was old enough to travel by himself but not old enough to be with his brothers as a shepherd. He became governor at age 30 (Genesis 41: 46) and met his brothers after the seven years of famine began (Genesis 41: 53). He was finally reunited with his father at about age 39-40. Jacob went to Egypt when he was 130 years old and died at 147 (Genesis 47: 28). Since Joseph was about 40 when he met his father and Israel was 130, then he had this "son of his old age" at 90 years old. Enters Egypt 430 Years 50 Days 480 Years 7½ Years 30 Years 400 Years Exodus Sinai 30 Years about 450 Years Temple Construction Free Men Slaves Desert (40 Years) Clear Land (Judges) Kings 450 years to clear the Land of Canaan. When He had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, He distributed their land as an inheritance - all of which took about four hundred and fifty years. (Acts 13: 19) 480 years: First temple started. Now it came about in the four hundred and eightieth year after the sons of Israel came out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month of Ziv which is the second month, that he began to build the house of the Lord. (1 Kings 6: 1) 7½ Years: Temple construction finished. In the fourth year the foundation of the house of the Lord was built, in the month of Ziv. In the eleventh year, in the month of Bul, which is the eighth month, the house was finished throughout all its parts according to all its plans. So he was seven years in building it. (1 Kings 6: 37-38) From the second month of Ziv in the fourth year to the eighth month of Bul in the eleventh year is actually seven and a half years. This reference to only seven years shows that they rounded dates. 1+ Year: Temple dedicated. During the feast of Tabernacles. And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto king Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, which is the seventh month. (1 Kings 8: 2) Therefore, if rounding was used, the total time from the exodus to the dedication was probably 490 years. The Reign of Kings. The problem with this is back dating. When I first calculated these dates I ended up with extra years, until I learned about accession years. The last year of a king and the first year of the next king were included in each summary. This causes an extra year to be added. So I concluded that the maximum number of years in my margin of error would be equal to the number of kings. In a list of kings, the accession year is supposed to complete the year for the last king and since the new king officially rules on the first day of the new year theoretically no extra time should be added. Prophecy Time Periods. Used to verify major end points. Modern History Records. After calculating elapsed time since creation, I finally matched one biblical event with a date assumed by modern historians. This was the date of the Assyrian captivity. Using that date, I went backwards and calculated the "BC" dates to the elapsed time dates. The problem is that the dates in ancient documents may refer to a different calendar system. Also, dates before 1000 BC, I used but tended to suspect because they cannot be connected to a clear connected history. Assyrian Invasion (721 BC). The first date that was found that I could correlate to a biblical event was the Assyrian invasion in 721 BC. This date became an anchor point. Ancient Astronomy. I also try to find the dates of eclipses and meteor showers because the bible says that the sun, moon and stars will be used to signs. One error they consistently make is to assume that astronomical miracles in the bible must occur at a scheduled eclipse that can be calculated. The assumption is that the dark day at the crucifixion and the miracle of Joshua commanding the sun to stand still occurred on a scheduled solar eclipse. Joshua's miracle was dated June 15, 763 BC and this is probably why some date the crucifixion in 33 A.D. I do not make these assumptions for these two incidents because we have had a dark day across North America that no one can explain. There is one major reason why these could not be natural eclipses. Timing. A natural solar eclipse can only occur during the new moon, around the first of the month. Jesus was crucified on Nisan 14, at a full moon in the middle of the month. So the darkness during the crucifixion was a miracle not a natural eclipse. Ancient History. For interesting historical events before 721 BC, I placed them in the sequence just as a point of interest to see what events were occurring around the same time. I cannot verify that these dates are correct, nor do I know how they estimated the dates other than through calculating possible astronomical dates and matching them to references of astronomical sightings. However, for some events a discrepancy occurred. Egyptian Early Kingdom. For events like the early Egyptian dynasties which are dated before the flood, I used the estimated dates but placed them sequentially after the flood. The Pharaoh of the Exodus. There are no records to verify who was this Pharaoh or when the exodus occurred. The bible does not mention the names. Historians estimate dates by records of ancient astronomical dates. Historians only have three dates given by the ancient Egyptians. One is the seventh year of Senwosret III. My chronology places the entry of Joseph during the twelfth dynasty and the exodus during the eighteenth dynastry. Surprisingly, this fits the evidence. Amenhotep 1. My chronology also places the exodus during the period of the new kingdom. This was a time of extreme prosperity and great building projects. That made sense if the Jewish slaves built them. So this does sounds reasonable. This would make Amenhotep 1, the Pharaoh of the exodus, not his son Thutmoses 1. Tutmoses 1. Some scholars place the exodus in the era of the son of Amenhotep 1. Tutmoses 1, and his daughter Nefure was supposed to be the one who rescued Moses. Nefure become Queen Hatshepsut. Moses is supposed to be the infant named Senmut who assumed the title Tutmoses II. Moses was the Egyptian name given to him by the princess and these names do sound the same. So it is reasonable that Moses was born during the eighteenth dynasty. So either father or son are the best candidates for the exodus, with the great uncertainties of dating and only a 80 year difference either one is possible. Ramses. Others, notably Hollywood, claim that Ramses (Ramesses 1) was the Pharaoh of the exodus. This is too late.

Disputed Time. There are two major blocks of disputed time when I compared my list to others. The Call of Abraham to the Exodus. This is a problem with the interpretation of Exodus 12: 40 and Galatians 3: 17. The assumption is that the 430 years started with the call of Abraham at age 75. This is because this is the time the covenant was first given. Ussher uses this assumption and dates the 430 years from 1921-1491 BC. However, they were not in Egypt until 215 years later. Before I knew that there was a problem I had this difference of 215 years. And it seems like an enormous coincidence that this is the length of time from the call to his moving to Egypt. They were slaves for over 400 years, not 215 years. Years Event 25 The call at age 75 to the birth of Isaac at age 100 60 The birth of Isaac to the birth of Jacob 130 The age of Jacob when he moved to Egypt 215 Total time 215 Years 25 + 60 + 130 = 215. This is the amount of time from the call until the birth of Isaac (25). From the time Abraham was called until the time Israel moved to Egypt with his 66 descendants was 215 years. The time discrepancy with other chronologies occurs because this time is taken as part of the 430 years mentioned in Galatians 3: 17 and Exodus 12: 40. My assumption is that they spent 430 years in Egypt as Exodus 12: 40 says. Thirty years as free people and 400 years of oppression because Genesis 15: 12 says they will be slaves for 400 years. And that this 215 years was not a part of the 430 years because that would give only 215 years as slaves. The Time in Egypt and in Egyptian Slavery Years Location Event 215 Canaan Abraham to Jacob going to Egypt 30 Egypt Covenant repeated before they enter Egypt 12 tribes go to Egypt as honored guests 400 Egypt 12 tribes oppressed and enslaved 645 Total time In Genesis 26: 2-5, 24 Israel was told not to go to Egypt when he was suffering from famine. This is probably because it was not his time to live in Egypt. They must live as strangers in the Promised Land. The only time that they had entered Egypt was in the time of Abraham before Isaac was born. After that God made sure that they stayed in the Promised Land. The Time the Covenant was given The covenant was repeated many times with each generation. Galatians 3: 17 could have referred to the last time that the covenant was repeated before all twelve tribes entered Egypt. Genesis 12: 1-3, 7. Abraham was called at age 75. Genesis 13: 14-17. The promise was repeated when Lot separated from him. Genesis 15: 4-18. This was the most formal repetition of the promise. It included an elaborate ceremony and sacrifices. Genesis 17: 1. When he was 99, the promise was repeated and circumcision was introduced. Genesis 28: 13-15. God repeated the covenant to Jacob at Bethel when he had the dream about a ladder to heaven. Genesis 35: 10-15. God repeated the covenant to Jacob and gave him the new name of Israel at Bethel. Genesis 46: 3. Israel was told not to be afraid to go to Egypt. Note that the commandments and the exodus came 430 years after the covenant. Therefore the covenant and their entrance into Egypt occurred at the same time. So God must have used the last time that the covenant was given to Israel. And the reference covenant must have been one of the two given after his name was changed. The previous covenants were with Abraham and Jacob. This covenant was with Israel. The Reign of Judges Year Judge Reign Tribe Enemy Reign 1462 Joshua 30 Ephraim 7 nations - 1422 Othniel 40 Judah Mesopotamia 8 1364 Ehud 80 Benjamin Moab 18 - Shamgar - - Philistines - 1264 Deborah 40 Ephraim Caanan 20 1217 Gideon 40 Manasseh Midian 7 1174 Abimelech 3 Manasseh Abimelech - 1176 Tola 23 Issachar - - 1151 Jair 22 Gad - - Total: Judges 278 years Enemies 53 About 300 years had elapsed (Judges 11: 26) 1129 Jephthah 6 Gad Ammon 18 1123 Ibzan 7 Judah - - 1116 Elon 10 Zebulun - - 1106 Abdon 8 Ephraim - - 1098 Samson 20 Dan Philistines 40 1078 Samuel 12 Levi Philistines - Total: Judges 341 years Enemies 111 1095 Saul 32 Benjamin Philistines - The Exodus to the Destruction of the first temple. This included the time of the Judges and the kings. The Reign of the Judges (364-450 Years) We get an accurate count of the time of the judges with the account in 1 Kings 6: 1. The temple construction began 480 years after the exodus in the fourth year of Solomon's reign. 364 = (480 - 40 (in the wilderness) - 32 (Saul) - 40 (David) - 4 (Solomon). So the judges ruled 364 years according to that calculation up to a maximum of 450 years to clear the land (Acts 13: 19). If you added the total reign of the judges (341 years) and the reign of their enemies (111 years) that total is 452 years. According to Judges 11: 26, about 300 years had elapsed from Joshua to Jephtah. In our calculation it was 278 years under the judges and 53 years under their enemies. That is 331 years. The Reign of the Kings (512 Years) Starting with Solomon's fourth year in 1022 BC and Nebuchadnezzar's nineteenth year in 586 BC This chronology worked very well. There was a seven year difference which can be attributed to a combination of overlapping months and the way they dated the reign of kings. I placed these years in the years of the long reigns. This results in a total of 406 years. This is close to the Gemara which states that the temple stood 410 years. The Seventy Year Captivity Began in 605 BC. Although Judah was not taken into captivity, they were controlled by Babylon and the city was under siege. This is the beginning of their seventy year captivity. Years Kingdom Comment 450 Judges Moses to Saul 112 United Kings Saul, David and Solomon 265 Israel (North) Death of Solomon about 985 BC to the Assyrian captivity in 721 BC 400 Judah (South) Death of Solomon about 985 BC to the Babylonian captivity in 586 BC 962 Total time The traditional date for Saul's ascension to the throne is 1095 BC.

Only eight kings of Judah were good. All the kings of Israel were evil and each line was generally replaced by assassination.

Six Thousand Years
I started these calculations just to see when the year 6000 would start. I am probably incorrect. The principle that the earth will last for 6000 years and then we will have a Sabbath millennium in heaven is a sound one. This theory has been around for centuries, and, as far as I can tell it is based on the cycle of the weekly Sabbath. But it is not stated explicitly in the Bible. But in my own research I used other Bible principles and I accepted this idea because of Leviticus:
