Noah > Ham > Cush > Nimrod >> Uruk

Uruk is not a person, but a city that scripture says was ruled by Nimrod. The thing that surprises me about Uruk is that its history goes back to before the flood. The rest of the cities I have traced back either start right after my date for the flood (2807 BC), or any sign of civilization before the flood is simple, and evidence after it shows sudden growth and advancement. Uruk is a little different.

Uruk is in southern Iraq, around the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, and contains history going back to even before Adam’s birth. But, here’s the thing. There is a distinct break in Uruk’s …

Scripture doesn’t say when Cain died. Some think he never did. I’m sure he did die, but have you ever wondered when? 

Though it’s always cool when I can see the story in a set of numbers, sometimes the story (in this case, Cain’s death) takes a little more coaxing than I know most people would be comfortable with. The reason is because “coaxing” requires making an assumption that might not be true. But, I enjoy trying it, because when evidence is scant, sometimes that assumption is all you have. If the rest of the story works out, then you go with it. Just make sure you’re open about the assumption, and realize that other opposing assumptions that you didn’t think of might have worked as well… …

 1 This is the written account of Adam’s line.
      When God created man, he made him in the likeness of God. 2 He created them male and female and blessed them. And when they were created, he called them “man. ”
Verses 1 and 2 appear to mirror both Day 6 and the creation of Adam.  I say this because because the word used for “man” is the same as the name for Adam.  The King James Version says this even clearer:
 1This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;  2Male and female created he them; …

As I re-reread my post How Long were Adam and Even in the Garden of Eden? (Part 3) - When Men Began to Call on the Name of the Lord, I remembered the verse Genesis 4:13…
 13 Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is more than I can bear. 14 Today you are driving me from the land, and I will be hidden from your presence; I will be a restless wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me.”
This contains some more …

As I posted in How Long were Adam and Even in the Garden of Eden?, I put forth the following theory of Adam’s life:

Mankind was created 200,000 years ago, and blessed to subdue the earth 
Adam was born 6,000 years ago
God put Adam in the Garden at 18 years of Age
Adam tended to the young garden for 7 years
He needed a helper, but none of the animals were suitable, so God made Eve
Adam and Eve sinned 7 years later
Seth was born when Adam was 130 years old, 98 years after Adam left the Garden
There were about 20,000 people descended from Adam and Eve by this time

Unlike other theories …
