I have no idea what you are trying to say or what any of that has to do with my Bible study.

Job does not equal Jacob. If you look you will find Job as one of the sons of the twelve. Look and find.

At-a-glance/The Bible - Religion-wiki


the 10 weeks (1200 years) of Enoch begin with the birth of Adam and end with the fall of man

Cain is punished 7 times (7 weeks) and gets out of prison at the start of the 10th week
same time that canaan is born.

Hey granpa - I'm doing something that is fun - slow but fun. I'm writing the entire bible slowly savoring each word. So far, I've only done Acts through Hebrews.

It is amazing the little words you catch when you do this. A lot of the time I'm praying as I read so that takes even more time. But I've always been one who needs to write it before it sinks in.

In the account of Genesis after each act of creation God "saw that it was good".
The only time that God did not see that it was good was after the creation of the firmament (Adamant)

Then God said, “Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.” 7 Thus God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so. 8 And God called the firmament Heaven. So the evening and the morning were the second day.


The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man (Adam) to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”

And it came to pass, when Rachel had born Joseph, that Jacob said unto Laban, Send me away, that I may go unto mine own place, and to my country

And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and behold this pillar, which I have cast betwixt me and thee;

This heap be witness, and this pillar be witness, that I will not pass over this heap to thee, and that thou shalt not pass over this heap and this pillar unto me, for harm.

Hebrew Lexicon :: H5707 (KJV)

coincidentally Jared dies around the time of the birth of Joseph

Um... Where are you getting this? The creation of Adam to the Fall of Man would probably have been no more than a few weeks (eg. God told them to be fruitful and multiply and they would've got right to it, but no were children conceived until after they had left the Garden), not 1,200 years.

I have been studying mine for years and I don't anticipate ever finishing. :)

Where do you get that? There is absolutely nothing in the bible that gives a clue as to how long Adam was in the garden. Might have a year, might have been 10,000 years.

It's not stated outright, but such things can be inferred by the little details of what is and isn't mentioned in the Garden account. 10,000 years? I seriously doubt it. Is it possible Adam and Eve didn't conceive the first few times they enjoyed each other? Sure, but it opens cans of worms to suggest great lengths of time passed between his creation and their exit from Eden. I really don't think it would've taken long for humanity to turn from God. Sadly.

They did die in a sense. Spiritually, mentally, physically. They began the descent when they first tasted the forbidden fruit.

well let's not open any cans of worms. Like let's all go outside and hold hands and sing Kumbaya my lord

Kum bay ya, my Lord, kum bay ya;
Kum bay ya, my Lord, kum bay ya;
Kum bay ya, my Lord, kum bay ya,
O Lord, kum bay ya.
