Because Abraham was living in a patriarchal society, it was difficult for him to reject his father's wishes and leave him behind. He was 75 years old, and his father Terah was 145 years old and alive, when he left Haran (Gen 11:26, 12:4). It must have been heartbreaking for the firstborn in charge of the household to leave his father in his old ...
Isaac was born to Abraham at 100 years old, Sarah was to be 90, and the step brother, Ishmael, would probably have been 14. We don't know how old they were at the time Isaac was offered up. We know Isaac got married when he was 40 years old, Isaac’s twin sons Esau and Jacob were born when he was 60, and he died at 180.
If Abraham was born when Terah was 130 years old, then Abraham would have lived in Haran for about 75 years. There's typically two arguments: Terah was 70 or 130. In Genesis 11:26 , it is stated that Terah was 70 years old when he began to father sons, and Abraham (then called Abram) is listed first among his sons.
Jacob and Esau were 15 years old when Abraham died. Isaac,75/Ishmael,89. Some biblical scholars have dated the life of Abraham as being from 1975-1800 BC or 2008-2183 Anno Mundus (year of the ...
Abraham was old.--As Isaac was thirty-seven years of age when Sarah died (Genesis 23:1), and forty at his marriage (Genesis 25:20), Abraham, who was a centenarian at Isaac's birth, would now be nearly 140. As he lived to be 175 (Genesis 25:7), he survived Isaac's marriage thirty-five years, and lived to see Esau and Jacob nearly grown up.
There are two versions I found out: Version A (According to Genesis 11:26 & 12:4) When Terah was 70, he raised his child Abraham. When Abraham went away from Haran, he was 75. So Terah was 145 years old when Abraham went away. That would mean that Terah was still alive when Abraham went away. Version B (According to Acts 7:4)
24 Now Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin. 25 And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin. 26 In the very same day Abraham was circumcised, and Ishmael his son. 27 All the men of his household, who were born in the house or bought with money ...
But John itself contains no reference to Jesus's beginning his ministry at 30. The only reference to Jesus's age in John could actually be the one bit of textual basis for Irenaeus's view. In John 8:57 some of Jesus's opponents state that he is "not yet 50 years old." One way of reading that would be to infer that Jesus is close to 50.
Job 42:16 After this, Job lived a hundred and forty years; he saw his children and their children to the fourth generation. The Greek Septuagint reads 170 more years, dying at 240 or 248, depending on manuscript. The sense of the Hebrew is not clear in V16 as to whether Job was 140 years old when he died, or, lived another 140 years after the ...
