Reading the Bible in Historical Sequence Part 1

Dia 2 de 31

Adam and Eve’s first child murders his brother; more violence follows. In the tenth generation, God calls Noah to build an ark, and in 2349 BC, sends a worldwide flood to destroy all land life.

Note 1: The first few chapters of Genesis are a very important part of God’s Word. God knew that man would become skeptical of this part of the Bible so He has hidden information deep within the Hebrew text. To yield this hidden information every word and every letter must be in its rightful place. (Refer to Chuck Missler, Ivan Panin and others). Any change to words or letters upsets the coded information. Please note, also, that death was not part of God’s preferred plan: death was the penalty for man’s rebellion and it will be ‘the last enemy that shall be destroyed’ (1 Corinthians 15:26).

Note 2: By 2349 BC there had been over 1,600 years of man’s misdeeds. In God’s eyes things were very corrupt (Genesis 6:12–13). After choosing Noah’s family to start anew, God destroyed all human beings and animals outside the ark and significantly changed the surface of the earth. Lack of vegetation now made meat a necessary food (Genesis 9:2–4).

Note 3 (Genesis 8:4): The ark coming to rest on the seventeenth day of the seventh month (of secular year) has a prophetic relevance. The Israelites were escaping from Egypt, and Jesus rose from the dead on the anniversary of that day. Each of these events brought additional meaning to the word rest. The writer of Hebrews urges us to, ‘Labor therefore to enter that rest’ (Hebrews 4:11).
