Dates to the right of the line are from the time of the creation, (Anno
Mundi, AM). Dates to the left of the line are according to conventional 4571 931 † Adam
dating (BC or AD). Events to the right of the line are Biblical figures and 4541 961 Jared
events and those most directly effecting the Old or New Testament Church.
Those to the left are world events and rulers. 4379 1123 Enoch
4359 1143 † Seth

Pre-Deluvian Period
Note on Dates:
4214 1288 Methuselah
All dates before the construction of the Temple are dependant upon a 4161 1341 † Enosh
literal reading of I Kings 6:1 which states that there were 480 years
between the beginning of the Exodus and the beginning of construction on 4027 1475 Lamech
Solomon’s temple. This reading requires that the 450 years of rule by the 4014 1488 Ascension of Enoch
judges, and the 40 year reign of Saul, mentioned in the New Testament 3966 1536 † Cainan
must be the total of several overlapping periods of time (See Samuel J. 3839 1663 Noah
Schulz, The Old Testament Speaks, 103-104). 3811 1691 † Mahalalel
