This page is to show that the age of the heavens and the earth is not 5769 as what mainstream so-called "Judaism" claims [Rabbinical Judaism], but it is 6182+ according to the sacred Torah and the other sacred writings of the Tanach, which is true Biblical Judaism. So, please enjoy and please take to heart the figures I provided as more accurate concerning the truth than of mainstream [Rabbinical] Judaism and of archeologists. This page was made by me, Maregaal Ben Yaakov.
“For [in] six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them [is], and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.” Thus, for the remembrance that the God that just redeemed us from slavery, is the same God that made all that you see and do not see within a short time, that is just seven days. And the prophecy for this statement is that each day of creation represents a future prophecy in which it will take more than 7000 years for peace to finally be on the earth at the coming of the king. Moses said this in Psalm 90, “For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, as a watch in the night.” And so the present year is about 6182+, thus we are in the seventh day right now, thus he [the moshiach] could not have come any earlier than at least 182 years ago. The reason I say that he cannot come until after the 7000th year is because it is written that he worked on the seventh day and on the self same day he finished his work as it is written, “And on the seventh day ELOHIM אלהים [The Jewish moshiach that is, not our God - for the moshiach of Judaism is not the God of Israel, but His greatest servant, unlike what non-Jews think. The moshiach fulfilled the plans of HaShem by creating all that He commanded. The moshiach - His son [Pro 30:4] has similar creative attributes to his God as all sons do to their parents regardless of specie. The moshiach is not eternal, nor divine - thus, he made the heavens and the earth, not HaShem]... finished his work which he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done (Gen 2:2).”
The reason I have this comment in the middle of the verse is because so-called "Christians" claim that Jesus is our God. The moshiach in Judaism is not the God of Israel, but His greatest servant. Judaism - in its long history - (ever since Adam himself) has never taught that the coming moshiach is HaShem Himself, but that he is a mere servant of His. Now here are some passages to back this up for non-Jewish folks:
1. I will raise them up a prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee [Moses], and will put My words in his mouth;
and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever will not
hearken unto My words which he shall speak in My name, I will require [it] of him - Deut 18:18-19.
Yehowah acts this way regardless of what prophet it is, but nonetheless - it is very clear that the prophet and
Yehowah are separate individuals.
2. Even the famous chapter of Isaiah 53 that so-called Christians love to use points out that the moshiach is not
our God, let's read it: Yet it pleased Yehowah to bruise him; He hath put [him] to grief: when Thou shalt make his
soul an offering for sin, he shall see [his] seed, He shall prolong [his] days, and the pleasure of Yehowah shall
prosper in his hand. He shall see of the travail of his soul, [and] shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall My
righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities - Isa 53:10-11.
As you can see - the person being talked about is simply a "servant" and an entirely different person than
Yehowah.
3. Again, if you look at Daniel 7:13-14 you can clearly see that the Ancient of Days and the "son of man" are
separate individuals and that the "son of man" cannot give himself his glory. This would be an inconceivable
notion if Jesus were the God of Israel.
4. Another reason for giving all of this commentary is because the God of Israel does not get weary, nor tired;
yet, we see someone that created the heavens and the earth in Exodus 31:17 who needs to be "refreshed."
This would be absurd to say about Someone that cannot ever die, nor grow faint. This tells us that the son, the great
and awesome servant of HaShem, is the one that did all of this, not HaShem Himself. As already said, all sons
have similar attributes to their parents, regardless of specie, thus he is that powerful. He is not our God, rather
he is the one that HaShem appointed over us to show us all manner of holiness and truth. This, by the way, is
the point for having the story of Pharaoh making Joseph the head of all Egypt in the Torah. Because, as Joseph
was made ruler over all of Pharaoh's dominion, so the moshiach was given dominion over all HaShem's dominion.
In both cases, the one that received such power needed to obey and follow the one who gave them such power.
Therefore, in order to serve Pharaoh you had to obey Joseph. This is the case with the moshiach and his God -
Yehowah as well. There are many other examples I can use, but this paper is not made for that purpose.

Thus 0000-1000 years = 1 day
1000-2000 years = 2 day
2000-3000 years = 3 day
3000-4000 years = 4 day
4000-5000 years = 5 day
5000-6000 years = 6 day
6000-7000 years = 7 day
And how do we come up with an approximate year of 6182+ you might ask? Read on to find out! All the figures we
provide on this list are strictly based on the Tanach, until we come to the destruction of the Holy Temple. At that point history books tell us this was in the year 586 BCE. The date of Yoshua Ben Yosef's death, that I provided, is based strictly on the Gospel of John, for he says he was murdered or crucified on Passover itself, being 1/14 of the Biblical Calendar. Whereas, according to the other three gospels they claim that Jesus ate the Passover and died the following day, which would make it 1/15 according to the Biblical Calendar system, the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread or Chag Matzah. John's gospel is the only surviving Gospel that is based on the things he eyewitnessed, the other three gospels were written by Gentiles that never knew, nor ever saw Yoshua. John's Gospel is radically different than the other three and boldly contradicts the other three in many regards and concerning many events. With that being said, John writes that Jesus was murdered just hours prior to when the Passover offering was to be given and that he rose on the first day of the Jewish week, three days later. Which would be 1/17 according to the Jewish Calendar. Based on these statements, one can figure the exact date Jesus was crucified on, because as math is used to figure out exactly when New Moons and eclipses occur, even centuries in advance, this same math can be used in the opposite direction to find out what day the "New Moon" fell on in those days that would cause the 17th to fall on a Sunday. That is, the first New Moon falling either on or any time after the first day of Spring of whatever year would fit this criteria, click here to see these findings. With that let's move on.
Adam and Eve were made in 4174 BCE [roughly]
1. Adam was 130 years old when he begat Seth, so the age of the earth was 130 y. old. 4044 BCE
2. Seth was 105 when he begat Enosh, so the age of the earth was 235 y. old 3939 BCE
3. Enosh was 90 when he begat Kenan, so the age of the earth was 325 y. old 3849 BCE
4. Kenan was 70 when he begat Mahalalel, so the age of the earth was 395 y. old 3779 BCE
5. Mahalalel was 65 when he begat Jared, so the age of the earth was 460 y. old 3714 BCE
6. Jared was 162 when he begat Enoch, so the age of the earth was 622 y. old 3552 BCE
7. Enoch was 65 when he begat Methuselah, so the age of the earth was 687 y. old 3487 BCE
8. Methuselah was 187 when he begat Lamech, so the age of the earth was 874 y. old 3300 BCE
9. Lamech was 182 when he begat Noah, so the age of the earth was 1056 y. old 3118 BCE
10. Noah was 503, not 500, when he begat Shem, so the age of the earth was 1559 y. old 2615 BCE
This is when the flood took place that wiped out all people and
civilizations 1656-57 y. old - approximately 2518-2517 BCE
11. Shem was 100 when he begat Arphaxad. so the age of the earth was 1659 y. old 2515 BCE
12. Arphaxad was 35 when he begat Shelah, so the age of the earth was 1694 y. old 2480 BCE
13. Shelah was 30 when he begat Eber, so the age of the earth was 1724 y. old 2450 BCE
14. Eber was 34 when he begat Peleg, so the age of the earth was 1758 y. old 2416 BCE
In Biblical Judaism, the naming of a child usually occurs right
at birth or during the wife's pregnancy. Isaac is an exception,
because Abraham "laughed" before Sarah was pregnant. He did
this because of what HaShem said regarding His promise to
Abraham, seeing that he was old. With that being said, the
earth was most likely "divided" or "shattered like pottery"
[which the scientific world calls "the Continental Drift"] while
Eber's wife was pregnant [Gen 10:25.]
Now, if you recall, the ancient people came from
"the east [Gen 11:2]," from the ark of Noah, and settled 'also'
in the land of Shinar [Footnote: current Babylonian ruins could
have been built upon the ruins of the original "Babel." I say this
because many ziggurats still exist in that area and the ziggurat
in Ur was fixed from a very poor condition by Nabonidus, the last
King of Babylon according to his cylinder found at Ur.
Even according to that cylinder, the ziggurat at Ur was
already "ancient."
Eber is the patriarch of the Hebrews, because according to Biblical
Judaism the world only had one race and one language, and by the
context of Genesis 10, it had only one land mass as well. This notion
about one land mass even holds with the 12 cuneiform tablets of
ancient Assyria called the "Epics of Gilgamesh [which might be,
copies or their spin of earlier Sumarian epics, stories and tablets.
Whatever that case is, they are all spin offs from true historical
events].
Well, when the tower was being built in Shinar, HaShem trans-
formed the families of the one race into different races and they
were either given a new language or had to discover and invent a
whole new language on their own. It is here, apparently, that Eber
became the patriarch of the "Hebrew" race. Israelites are only a
single branch of the "Hebrew" family tree.
"Hebrews" in Hebrew is "עברי," and Eber in Hebrew is "עבר." The
additional "yod" means "-ite," like Israel-ite or Moab-ite, so in reality
"Hebrews" would be more accurately translated as "Eber-ites." Or,
better yet, "Ever-ites," because in the Hebrew language the "B"
becomes a "V" if it is located somewhere other than the very first
letter of the word.
15. Peleg was 30 when he begot Reu, so the age of the earth was 1788 y. old 2386 BCE
16. Reu was 32 when he begot Serug, so the age of the earth was 1820 y. old 2354 BCE
17. Serug was 30 when he begot Nahor, so the age of the earth was 1850 y. old 2324 BCE
18. Nahor was 29 when he begot Terah, so the age of the earth was 1879 y. old 2295 BCE
19. Terah was around 70 when he begot Abraham, so the age of the earth was 1949 y. old 2225 BCE
SEE NOTE *1 BELOW
It is here when Noah finally died, 350 years after the flood,
Abraham was approximately 57 years old at that time - according
to Gen 9:29 ...............................................................................................2006 y. old 2168 BCE
20. Abraham was 100 when he begat Isaac, so the age of the earth was 2049 y. old 2125 BCE
21. Isaac was 60 when he begat Jacob and Esau, so the age of the earth was 2109 y. old 2065 BCE
It is here that Shem, son of Noah, died.
Isaac was 110 and Jacob was 50 years old. Shem lived an additional 502
years after the flood - according Genesis 11:10-11. Keep in mind that the
flood was on the earth for over a year, not just 40 days...................................2159 y. old 2015 BCE
22. Jacob was 130 when he entered Egypt, so the age of the earth was 1/15/2239 y. old 1935 BCE
23. Israel stayed in Egypt 430 years to the self same day they entered,
so the age of the earth was... 1/15/2669 y. old 1505 BCE
By using the date of #24 and subtracting the 4 years of Solomon and
the 40 years of King David's reign, David became King in Hebron in

It was on this very date that the moshiach was murdered, just hours prior
to the Passover sacrifice [ Gregorian Calendar = 4 / 2 / 0033 ] 1/14/4206 y. old
This date in red is based on the gospel of John [the only surviving eye-
witness account of Yoshua Ben Yosef's life] for he says he was
crucified hours before the Passover offering was to be given, making
it the 14th of Aviv. Whereas, the other three gospels claim that 'Jesus'
did in fact eat the passover offering at night, and then was tried and
crucified the following day. This would have made it the 15th of Aviv,
the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. These three gospels
were written by folks that never saw Yoshua, nor ever heard his words.
Therefore, John's Gospel carries more weight in reliability. [Click Here]
.....up to the present time, in the year 2009, there has been 2009+586 years,
since there is no year that equals 0000, thus 2594 years transpired,
so the age of the earth for the year 2009 starting at 3/27-3/28/2009 is: 6182+ y. old
___________________________________________________________________________________________
The reason for the “+” sign is because the birthdays and exact dates are not given in the Tanach.
So, with that being said, the earth is at least this old up to about (6182 + 47 =) 6229 y. old.
By the date that I provided it is very clear we are in the "seventh day" or the last millennium leading us into the great reign of the holy moshiach, which leads us into the great day of judgment that is held in the eighth millennium or some time after 7182+.
Also, the reason I say 3/27-3/28/2009 is because the Jewish calendar always starts after the first new moon right after or on the first day of Spring, for it is written, “This month [shall be] unto you the beginning of months: it [shall be] the first month of the year to you (Ex 12:2).” And it is in this month that one celebrates Passover. The year does not begin in Fall as unholy "rabbinical" sages have mentioned and taught by misinterpreting the commandments of Succoth [Tabernacle Feast - Exodus 34:22.] Thus, Rosh Hashannah [the Jewish New Year] is in the Spring, not the Fall, according to the heavenly calendar. In real Biblical Judaism there must not be a 'civil' calendar and a 'religious' calendar going on at the same time. There must only be one calendar according to the prophets who uttered the very words of HaShem - the Holy God of Israel, Whose name is Yehowah.

Note: *1 of #19
When I came across other books and web sites dealing with the age of the earth, some authors have taken into
account the words of a certain martyr named Stephan. Stephan is mentioned in the "Book of Acts" and this book is found in mainstream Christian bibles. In Acts 7:4 it says, "Then he went out from the land of the Chaldeans and lived in Haran. And after his father died, God removed him from there into this land in which you are now living [ESV]."
This account of our holy patriarch is absolutely false!
The reason so-called "Christians" believe in this notion is because they think that their "Bible" is without
In truth, Luke cannot even get his two accounts of Jesus' ascension inlined with each other. I say this because in
the Gospel of Luke he claims that Jesus "led" his disciples all the way to "Bethany" which is two long miles away from Jerusalem and then ascended from there. Whereas, according to Acts 1 Jesus ascends from the Mt. of Olives which is only about 700 feet from the Holy Temple mount. Yet, according to John's gospel, the author says that Jesus ascended on the very day of his resurrection, after talking to Mary Magdelene, right outside of his burial plot (John 20:17.) Keep in mind that Luke writes at the beginning of his gospel that he did not witness a single thing surrounding Jesus. In fact, if you were to read Acts very carefully, we see that Luke finally becomes a "witness" to the events he is writing about in Act 16:10 when we see the narrative of the Book of Acts change from "they went" to "we went." Likewise, according to Luke's account in Acts 15 we see that this is the second time Paul enters into Jerusalem, of 3 occasions. Yet, according to Paul himself in his epistle commonly called "Galatians [Chapters 1 -2 ]," he states that he only went to Jerusalem twice before penning this particular epistle, the second visitation equals that of Acts 21, which Luke was a witness of. Thus, we have discrepancies or errors with Luke.
Again, in the gospel of Luke, he writes that Jesus sinned by having him say to his disciples on the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread to "go and sell" something and "buy" a sword [Luke 22:36.] This is illegal for a torah observant person to do on a holy day such as this, for it is written "you must not do any servile work" on these days [Lev 23:7]; which defines that one must not conduct any type of business on those days. Whereas, according to John's gospel, the only eyewitness account of Jesus we have that survives, he says that Jesus' last supper was a regular meal held during the night of 1/14 and that he was crucified the next day, on the 14th, hours before the Passover offering was to be offered [John 18:28]. Remember, the Jewish "24 hour day" starts at sunset. Likewise, Luke gives a huge fabricated account of the "virgin birth" of Jesus, whereas according to prophecies of Judaism found in the Tanach and the personal promises given to our ancestors, the moshiach must be born from their physical seed through natural intercourse. Not only does Luke fabricate this story, but his story is radically different from the narrative of Matthew (don't take my word for it, but read the two stories yourself and compare where they came from and where they went to at the time of Jesus' birth.) Again, in truth, John's gospel confirms the things of Judaism by stating in John 6:42 and all of chapter 7 that Jesus was neither born from a virgin, nor in Bethlehem, but in Nazareth.
Another point I need to point out is the fact that the current Torah came into existence long before the birth of Stephan, as
did also the Greek translation of the Tanach called the Septuagint. The Septuagint was translated into Greek around 285 BCE. Even in the Septuagint, Genesis says that Terah lived to 205 years old and that after Terah was 70 years old he begot Abram. When Abram was 75 years old, HaShem told Abram to "Get thee out of thy... ...father's house." Meaning: Terah was still alive and that Abram was staying with Terah at the time when HaShem told him to leave. More proof of this can be found through the narrative surrounding Noah's family. Noah was 601 years old when he came off the ark and Shem was about 98 years old. They came off the ark in the second month [Gen 8:14] of the Jewish Calendar, which is in Spring. Yet, in the same year or some other year [it does not say exactly] at the fall harvest, when the grapes were ripe, he made wine for himself and then laid down in his tent naked. Well, it is clearly seen that at least 6 months went by and Noah's family is still around, because two sons cover up Noah's nakedness. Mind you, that Shem is [at the very least] 98 years old. So, as we can see, even though months passed or even years, for we do not know how old his vineyard was, his children were still near by.
In the account of Genesis - which overrides Stephan's words, Terah was right at 70 years old when he had Abram or exactly at 70 years old. I say, "right at" because our Jewish narrator is giving a rounded off number to point to all three of Terah's sons. If we were to use Stephan's words, Terah would have to be 130 years old when he begot Abram. Because:
Terah died at 205 years old.............................................205
and Abram left Haran at age 75 ................................... -75
which would make Terah 130 at the time of Abram's birth 130
Another, point is the fact that the author or Jewish narrator of Genesis is only concerned with the genealogy and roots of the Israelites, not all of the "Hebrews." So, to use "Get thee out of thy... ...father's house" again to show that Terah was alive at the time of Abram's departure, let's look at the wording of Jacob's vow to HaShem in Genesis 28. Jacob's words should counter Stephan even further because when Jacob says these words, we know full well that Isaac is alive. In Genesis 28:20-22 this is what it says, "And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on, So that I come again to my father's house in peace; then shall the LORD be my God: And this stone, which I have set [for] a pillar, shall be God's house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee." At this exact time, we do not exactly know how old Jacob was. That is determined later on by the things that the narrator points out.
According to our Jewish narrator of Genesis he boldly points out that Jacob works seven years for Rachel, but gets Leah instead. So, for another 7 years he works off his time for Rachel, whom he marries at the beginning of the second set of
7 years; whereas, he gained Leah at the end of the first set of seven years. This would make it a total of 14 years so far. When he is done working off his dowry for Rachel, he wants to work another seven years for some livestock, but apparently only works for 6 [Gen 31:41.] This would make it 20 years of Jacob staying with Laban. When we get to Genesis 41:46 we see that Joseph was 30 years old when he was exalted by Pharaoh. Then when we get to Genesis 45:6, we see that Joseph was 39 years old at the time when Jacob enters into Egypt. Jacob was 130 when he entered into the land of Egypt [Gen 47:9].
So let's do some math: Jacob was 130 when he entered Egypt ............................130
Joseph was 39 years old when Jacob entered Egypt...........-39
Jacob was 91 years old when he begot Joseph............ 91
The first 7 years that Jacob worked for Laban he was not married; thus, between the 8th year and 20th year [12 years] of Jacob staying with Laban he begot 11 children, Benjamin was born when Jacob was on his way back to the Negev.
So what's my point? Look how old Jacob is when he leaves Isaac to go to Laban's house for a few years. It is fair to say that Joseph was born at the latter end of those 12 years at Laban's house. Thus, somewhere around the time when Jacob was 77 years old he left his parents' home for the first time, then after working for Laban he came back to Isaac.
Isaac was the same way, in that he did not leave home. For we can see that after Sarah died Isaac married Rebecca and stayed in the very tent of Sarah [Gen 24:67]. Thus, it was the very culture at that time to stay with one's parents or house. So, when HaShem said to Abram in Genesis 12:1 "Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, AND from thy father's house," this is meant literally because Terah was still alive and around 130 years old.
I would like to reiterate what I said earlier, Luke did not become an eyewitness to any event of Acts until Acts 16:10, thus he never saw ,nor heard the literal words of Stephan. All that he wrote of him is based on "hear say."
Thank you,
