God created everything in six days, on the seventh he rested.

Exodus 20:11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.

And one day equals a thousand years or a watch in the night. It is prophecied that our knowledge of the universe and everything will mount at the end of the sixth day when Man ate from the "Tree of Wisdom". Nearly 6000 years have passed since Adam was created.

Psalms 90:4 For a thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by, and like a watch in the night.

Using the key of Psalms 90 we get the following:

6000years*365days*1000years=2,190,000,000year "days".

Further we know that a watch in the night is three or four hours:

24/3=8

24/4=6

2,190,000,000*8=17,520,000,000

2,190,000,000*6=13,140,000,000

Now where's the difference between science and the bible?

Good point, Mystic. I agree that religion and science can overlap. I was taught by my mother that God created the world, but that a day was equal to eons. And there you have it, they both can fit together.

Traditionally an aeon is the same as an astrological age. Such an age lasts for an approximate of 2000 years. Gnosticism talks of aeons alot. Maybe I'll check it out and study it further one of these days to find out what the gnosis of the early Christian mystics is layed out.

24,000*365*2,000=17,520,000,000

Looks like it works with aeons too.

I would say fourteen Trillion Years old.

Old enough to be your moms mom from eternity.

That was certainly a scholarly remark. According to science, Big Bang happened between 13 and 17 billion years ago, for some reason the exact same figures you'll find using this particular mystery of the bible.

no timeframes are mentioned in the adam myth.

From the Jewish calendar and the bible itself. According to the Jewish calendar we are currently living in the year 5768 After Adam (ca. 6000). That was where I got it.

The thing is, you can't take anything from the Hebrew version of creation, because it was directly lifted from the Babylonians during the exile.

This means it is just a copy of a copy. You need to go further back.

Honestly, it seems like nothing in the bible is actually the original work of Israelites. Moses birth *coughSARGONcough*, the Elohim (the gods? oh it can mean god. That's convienient), the flood and I reckon probably the exodus have all been coopted from somewhere else.

I don't think the OT gets even vaguely near real until it gets to David, Solomon and that generation, and even then I think it is a smiliar thing to the Classical Greeks and the Myceneans - they have some cracking stories, but no hard proof they ever happened.

Of course, I'd like to think that much of that (the people at least, if not the events) were true and a king called David did the business etc.

Seems to fall in perfectly, great find! Seems like every 1,000 years God only blinks once lol.

Also, remember that according to the Bible, the universe is older than Big Bang. The Big Bang is the Light, but even before any sun was lit matter existed in the shape of the Eretz, often translated the Earth, however Eretz may even mean Zion or Israel later on, so God knows what it really was, aswell as Heaven or the Great Expance, space with dimentions. God exists outside this in the beginning, enters it when he creates Man, and leaves when Eve was tricked by Lilith to eat from the Tree of Wisdom. Then he comes back at the flood and leaves again when peace is settled. Know that the peace of God is a sharp sword and fasces of iron. Call it marchal law if you like, call it nothing left, call it nothing at all. God comes when war is declared, but only the mad hear voices. Did you know that both Hitler and Churchil were insane according to modern psychology and psychiatry? They heared voices and drowned themselves in chrystal meth and booze. You don't have to believe me, but that's what the record says. They heared voices from the future, now, which explained what happened, and it was a war between gay-extinguishing Jew-hating Hitler and compassionate rather sad Churchill with all the right people in an underground bunker, when the wrath of the Lamb is heared over the ether. Watch and wait, soon, very soon, yes right at this moment, the scenario of Revelation is played out under your very noses. Call it conspiracy, I call it telepathy and the Spirit of God, which existed over the primordered sea in the Great Expance. It's time for the Mazzaroth to be painted in the Temple with the gemstars of the Father outlining his everlasting face and light shines in all it's glory, around the Pole Star to finally silence Paul who killed Stephen for witnessing about this.

wait a minute, this thread is not about narnia
