Re: CREATION vs EVOLUTION: Faith vs Science
The genealogy of Genesis 5 goes from Adam down to Shem. The genealogy of Genesis 11:10ff goes from Shem to Abraham. The really critical factor is that these two genealogies are also chronologies. This very precise and detailed chronology gives us about 2,000 years from Adam to Abraham. Then we have another 2k years from Abraham to Christ. And of course here we are about 2k years removed from Christ.
Matthew gives us a genealogy from Abraham to Jesus. Luke gives us a genealogy from Adam to Jesus.
Even if one dares to suggest that there are missing generations in the Genesis accounts, 10 times would not get us to a number needed by evolutionists.
