Genesis 11:18 And Peleg lived thirty years, and begat Reu: 19 And Peleg lived after he begat Reu two hundred and nine years, and begat sons and daughters. 239 yrs.
Genesis 11:20 And Reu lived two and thirty years, and begat Serug. 21 And Reu lived after he begat Serug two hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters. 237 yrs. 22 And Serug lived thirty years, and begat Nahor. 23 And Serug lived after he begat Nahor two hundred years, and begat sons and daughters. 230 yrs. 24 And Nahor lived nine and twenty years, and begat Terah.
Genesis 11:25 And Nahor lived after he begat Terah a hundred and nineteen years, and begat sons and daughters. 148 yrs. 32 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran. 205 yrs. Thus, before the flood you have the long-livers, 930, 912, 905, 910, 895, 962, 969, 777, 950 years etc, but there is a general decline in the life spans, even though there are some anomalies.
Then you have (Noah) at 950, but after the flood we observe 600, 438, 433, 464, 239, 239, 230, 148, 205. A definite downward acceleration in years. And then onto Psalms 90, where the life span has been greatly reduced, to the point where today, a centenarian is celebrated as a long liver?
Psalms 90:10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. That’s 70 or 80 years.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
