In YEC, WHEN Was Adam?

Perhaps the text, when carefully understood from the Hebrew perspective out of which it sprung, is, in fact leading us to the same conclusions --only to find validation from science as a byproduct of this change of interpretation. It’s really rather gratifying. Cheers!

@Guy_Coe,

Let me know when you have those details worked out.

@anon46279830 uses genealogies to arrive at his date.

In a prior post, you wrote this:

“Here’s one reason why I place Adam and Eve earlier in time than the Neolithic revolution; the Persian Gulf location was most likely underwater by then. I place them at 15-13kya, when during the late paleolithic, the location and situation of the Persian Gulf area was perfectly situated to be the “lab” in which humabs first learned, specifically, IRRIGATION agriculture and animal domestication, and began passing these skills off to others.”

What is Your Model?

Here’s one reason why I place Adam and Eve earlier in time than the Neolithic revolution; the Persian Gulf location was most likely underwater by then. I place them at 15-13kya, when during the late paleolithic, the location and situation of the Persian Gulf area was perfectly situated to be the “lab” in which humabs first learned, specifically, IRRIGATION agriculture and animal domestication, and began passing these skills off to others. Later, during the early neolithic, as the earth continued warming, you have the kinds of conditions which inhere to create massive local flooding, as ice dams break, tectonic forces are at work, and tundra defrosts. Much like the descriptions in Genesis chapter two and forwards. This makes Adam and Eve ancestral to all the cultures which arise from Mesopotamian roots. My two cents.
