Analysis #Atlantis 4000 BC for the creation of the world may not be quite true.

Analysis #Atlantis 4000 BC for the creation of the world may not be quite true.


#Atlantis Dating of the Early #Bible Flood at 10000BC


I currently think the flood was around 9,600 BC It may also be possible that Noah's floodoccurred around 9,600 BC and another flood occurred later around 5,500 BC.  


Until a few years ago, I thought that if one accepted the idea that the early Genesis chronology is reliable, one would automatically arrive at a date of about 4000 BC for the creation of the world. It turns out that may not be quite true.


When I was young I took all the numbers in genesis as unquestionable facts but then I learned that the Septuagint uses completely different numbers. (and there are other versions tooI now see the numbers more as hints pointing us in the right general direction but not to be taken too literally. Having studied it I have concluded that the flood of Noah was probably the same as the flood of Atlantis which was also the same as the flood of Ogyges (Gog?) According to plato the war of atlantis was 9000 years before the time of Solon.


Scientists have studied the artifacts left by civilized people, and usually agree that civilization began no more than about 10,000 years ago

According to Plato, Atlantis was a naval power lying "in front of the Pillars of Hercules" that conquered many parts of Western Europe and Africa 9,000 years before the time of Solon, or approximately 9600 BCE. After a failed attempt to invade Athens, Atlantis sank into the ocean "in a single day and night of misfortune".


The Ogygian flood is so called because it occurred in the time of Ogyges, a mythical king of Attica. The name "Ogyges" and "Ogygian" is synonymous with "primeval", "primal" and "earliest dawn". Others say he was the founder and king of Thebes. In many traditions the Ogygian flood is said to have covered the whole world and was so devastating that Attica remained without kings until the reign of Cecrops. 


"Many great deluges have taken place during the nine thousand years, for that is the number of years which have elapsed since the time of which I am speaking; and during all this time and through so many changes, there has never been any considerable accumulation of the soil coming down from the mountains, as in other places, but the earth has fallen away all round and sunk out of sight. The consequence is, that in comparison of what then was, there are remaining only the bones of the wasted body, as they may be called, as in the case of small islands, all the richer and softer parts of the soil having fallen away, and the mere skeleton of the land being left."


Plato in his Laws, Book III, argues that this flood had occurred ten thousand years before his time, as opposed to only "one or two thousand years that have elapsed" since the discovery of music, and other inventions. Also in Timaeus (22) and in Critias (111-112) he describes the "great deluge of all" as having been preceded by 9,000 years of history before the time of his contemporary Solon, during the 10th millennium BCE. In addition, the texts report that "many great deluges have taken place during the nine thousand years" since Athens and Atlantis were preeminent. 


The theory of the flood in the Aegean Basin proposes that a great flood occurred at the end of the Late Pleistocene or beginning of the Holocene. The Holocene is a geological period that began approximately 11,550 calendar years BP (or about 9600 BCE) and continues to the present. This flood would coincide with the end of the last ice age, estimated at approximately 10,000 years ago, when the sea level rose as much as 130 metres, particularly during Meltwater pulse 1A when sea level rose by about 25 metres in some parts of the northern hemisphere over a period of less than 500 years


We read in Genesis that the early patriarchs lived for what sounds like ridiculously long lifetimes. Look at Chart 5 above. The first ten men mentioned in the Bible (Adam through Noah) all lived for about 900 years, except for Enoch, who didn't die but who "walked with God: and he was not; for God took him" (at the age of 365). The next several generations showed decreasing lifetimes. Shem died at the age of 600. The next three men lived for between 400 and 500 years, then there were several who lived over 200 years, then for a few hundred years the lifetime seems to have been between 100 and 200. How can we account for these extreme ages, and the fairly sudden decrease in lifetime?


We can only speculate. Let's start with God's statement in Gen.1:31, "And God saw every thing that he had made, and behold, it was very good." He found no defect with the early world and its inhabitants. Those first humans had not experienced any mutations -- their cell structure was still perfect, as the Creator had planned, and presumably they could have lived forever if they hadn't sinned. Indeed, we're told in several Biblical spots that death first came into the world as the result of human sin.


Notice on the chart that the real change in human longevity began just after the Great Flood, which must have almost completely changed the environment of Earth. Shem was born a century before the flood, but most of his life was post-flood. His descendants were all born, lived, and died in the post-flood world. The environmental disruption of the Flood must have been the primary factor that caused decreased longevity.

Before the flood men lived about 900 years. After the flood men only lived about 70 years. The longevity of the patriarchs before the flood


many have been caused by a plant. How so? The ends of our chromosomes are capped by telomeres. Normal cells cannot divide unless their telomeres are long enough. Eventually, the telomeres become too short for the cell to recognize them. Then the cell dies without being replaced. The enzyme telomerase, when coded for by the cell, helps keep and restore telomeres to their proper length. Before Noah's "erets" flood this special plant many have supplied or activated the enzyme telomerase. It could also be there was a plant that supplied compounds like CoQ10 Alpha Lipoic Acid, etc. After the flood, this plant may have become more scarce and thus less eaten, until the use of it finally stopped.

· Fans try to get a look at a TV outside of Fenway Park for updates on the Boston Marathon explosions. (MLB.com)BOSTON -- The sirens kept coming in a steady stream of noise that formed its own dreary song as fans outside of Fenway Park huddle around a televised newscast to hear the latest on explosions in Copley Square on Monday afternoon.With helicopters buzzing through the skies, the newscast showed frantic scenes near the finish line of the Boston Marathon, less than an hour after the Red Sox defeated the Rays, 3-2."We were sitting at Who's on First," said Robert Francis Gailes, a Red Sox fan from Lee, Mass. "All of a sudden, we heard this bomb went off. Two of our friends have people running in the race."Who's on First, a bar located on Yawkey Way just outside the park, temporarily held their line upon hearing the news but started letting customers in shortly afterward.Tears streamed down the faces of many people. People dressed in Red Sox gear scampered up and down the street, holding their phones high in the air. Many yelled out that their signal was jammed.
