[ 100] Abraham begate Isaac when he was an hundred yeeres old, Genes. 21. vers. 5. Genes. 17. vers. 17.
[ 60] Isaac or Izhak begat Iacob when he was threescore yeeres of age, Gene. 25. verse 20, and 26.
[ 130] Iacob went into Egypt when he was 130. yeres old, Gen. 47. verse 9.
[ 215] The Iacobites or Israelites abode in Egypt 215. yeeres. So write Eusebius Caesariensis, and Marianus Scotus: yea, many later writers come short of that supputation by 5. yeeres. The trueth of this important difficultie, shall (by the power of God) be decided shortly.
The whole summe of yeeres is 505.
The particular summes of the yeeres be these;
- 100
- 60
- 130
- 215
- 505
Make addition, and this summe will appeare 505.
