Noah 3056 BC to 2106 BC
Creation date 1056 to 2006
-
Noah is the son of Lamech (Gen 5:28-29)
-
He became the father of Shem when he was 500 yrs old (Gen 5:32) (he might have possibly been 503 yrs old,
see the About page for this timeline in footnote 1 under the table).
-
He lived to be 950 yrs old. (Gen 9:28-29)
-
God had him build an ark and saved him, his wife, son's & daughter-in-laws from the flood. (Gen chapters 6-9)
All the rest of mankind and animals not on the ark perished in the flood.
-
Notice that Lamech (Noah's father) dies 5 yrs before the flood.
-
Also notice that Methuselah (Noah's grandfather) dies the same year of the flood.
-
Noah had brothers and sisters (Gen 5:30). Unless they died young, they probably died in the flood.
