Biblical Patriarch DynastiesOne of the growing ways to understand the extraordianary ages offered for the Biblical Partiarchs is as if the names represent dynasty periods calculated from the deaths of the Patriarchs in order. Predeluge Patriarchal Dynasties BC/Jewish - 3760-2831/0001-0930 = The Adam Dynasty, during which Abel came and went, and the cities of Cain, Mehujahel and Methusael as well as Seth, Enosh, Qeynan, Mahalel, Yared, Enoch, Methuselah and Lamech were founded.
- 2831-2719/0930-1042 = The Seth Dynasty. The city of Enoch 'ascended' during this dynasty (in 2774/987)
- 2719-2621/1042-1140 = The Enosh Dynasty
- 2621-2526/1140-1235 = The Qeynan Dynasty
- 2526-2471/1235-1290 = The Mahalel Dynasty
- 2471-2339/1290-1422 = The Yared Dynasty
- 2339-2219/1422-1542 = The Methushael Dynasty
- 2219-2110/1542-1651 = The Lamech Dynasty
- 2110-2105/1651-1656 = Years of chaos til the flood OR a brief Methuselah Dynasty
Postdeluge BC/Jewish - 2105-1755/1656-2006 = The Noah Dynasty. The Tower of Babel fell during this dynasty (in 1765/1996)
After the death of Noah the lifespans of the main Biblical characters are no longer particularly extraordinary.
