The great age of the Patriarchs is error.. attributed to scribes who used the counting method for sheaves of grain in stead of human years.
Try again ----MOSES is not one of the "PATRIARCHS" His age of death is
recorded at 120 years-------we are not talking about METHUSALAH. Moses,
himself-----described that life span of man as 70------excellent observation on his
part. age 70 is----even today considered a kind of "CUT OFF" age by
medical practioners. You made no point------except to demonstrate the fact
that you fail to grasp the actual value and STYLE of ancient scriptural writings
People in those times married young and started families.. To live to age 70 was considered great old age.
Or, do you also believe that Adam and Eve were 90 feet tall?
Try again----A 70 year old man 3000 years ago was not much different from a
70 year old man today. Sorry ----but my field is biology-----and yours is stupidity.
Cell age is a matter of time------the physiological processes have not changed in the
past 3000 years. All living cell lines eventually die-----the timing of death of a cell line is----kinda predetermined something like "planned obsolescence" ---for an understanding
of this fact you need to understand an intriguing process known as "apoptosis"
People in those days did pretty much what people do today. ----a 15 year old
girl was a 15 year old girl. An interesting factoid is that the age of MENARCHE---
was probably a bit later in populations of the middle east at that time-----a matter
of NUTRITIONAL status------gee you are dim. I did not mention ADAM AND EVE--
in fact there is no comment on the HEIGHT of adam and eve in the book of genesis---
you are resorting to much later myths-----(I will not comment on my view as to
the garden of eden as a concrete reality------you are too dim to understand)
