Methuselah was a dirty old man.

His death marked the flood. God waited until he died

Months of the year were mentioned as early as Exodus 2 and we know from the following verse that there were 12 months in the year.


Esther 3:7
In the first month, that is, the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that is, the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month to month, to the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar.


Exodus 12:2
This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.

So does it tell you how many days were in those months?

 

[Concerned American]

He bathed regularly

how many wives did he have that he bathed with--BTW, WTF did you stand when he was bathing. SMFH.

So does it tell you how many days were in those months?

The largest amount of days mentioned in a month are found in the following scriptures:

• Genesis 8:14
  And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried.
• Jeremiah 52:31
  And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon in the first year of his reign lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison,
• 2 Kings 25:27
  And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon in the year that he began to reign did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;

So we see 12 months and at least 27 days in a month.

[HikerGuy83]

Adam and Eve had free will.

They chose to disobey God in the garden and that sin corrupted the perfect universe God created.

Genesis 2​

17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

There was no free will beyond the simple things they knew.

In Genesis 3:22

And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:

Then they had free will because they knew both sides of a choice.

It was a necessary choice.

If they don't eat the fruit, they are still in the garden and we are still looking for a chance to come to earth.

 

[Meriweather]

or does this just mean ... a long time?

I've read two theories worth considering. The first is that the age designates the family/tribe that Adam or Noah led or fathered before the tribe scattered. The second is that zeros or numbers were added to signify the historical importance of that person.

 

[Captain Caveman]

I don't believe I disputed that. You made the assertion. BTW, can you prove that?

No

makes sense!

 

[Zebra]

During that time, a year wasn't defined as 12 months.
Reconcile that.

what was a year then.?

It was a necessary choice.

If they don't eat the fruit, they are still in the garden and we are still looking for a chance to come to earth.

They most definitely had free will.

And chose to disobey God.

The 12 month calendar arrived around 65BC

[HikerGuy83]

They most definitely had free will.

And chose to disobey God.

How could they have free will if they didn't know the difference between good and evil?

They chose to disobey God because that was the path forward. There wasn't going to be any multiplying and replenishing without that knowledge.

More importantly, there would be no way to demonstrate actual faith.

Already proved this to be incorrect because Moses gave us the Pentateuch and the first book of the Bible tells about months and the following verse tells us that there were 12 months way before 65 b.c.

Esther 3:7
In the first month, that is, the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that is, the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month to month, to the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar.

• Genesis 8:14
  And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried.
• Jeremiah 52:31
  And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon in the first year of his reign lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison,
• 2 Kings 25:27
  And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon in the year that he began to reign did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;

According to the book of Esther, the first month was known as Nisan and the last or twelfth month was known as Adar. The other verses show that there were at least 27 days in a month.

The biblical Esther is believed to have lived around 492 B.C. to approximately 460 B.C. Her story is set during the reign of King Ahasuerus, identified as Xerxes I, who ruled Persia from approximately 487 to 465 B.C., placing the events of the Book of Esther within this timeframe. She was born as Hadasseh, a Jewish exile, and became queen of Persia after the previous queen, Vashti, was deposed. (from a search of when Esther lived).

And you failed to reconcile which version of the bible that verse came from. The current versions of the bible are all suspect as any kind of credible reference because they have all been edited, had large portions removed or added according to the wishes and political whims of the people doing the editing. Meh. No one knows.

 

[ChristisKing]

Finally, yes, who the f*** knows?

I guess that's an acceptable answer then as that's mine as well.

I can't remember, I was only two at the time.

You were two in biblical times? How old are you anyways!?
