Space of the Ancients
Translated by Google Translate
As we said in chapter 4, the Space of the Ancients, by our definition, will be quantified by the time that elapsed from the time that Adam lived on earth, 930 years, until the time of Joseph of Egypt who lived 110 years.
For mathematical reasons, and in an attempt to have a practical model that is as close as possible to the theoretical one, since the patriarchal ages are variable, we realized that we should subdivide this third space-time into more parts.
The first subdivision of the Space of the Ancients, we will call the Space of the Ancients/Methuselah, and it includes the period in which Adam, Seth, Enosh, Cainan, Mahalalel, Jared, Enoch and Methuselah lived. This group of patriarchs was chosen because their ages were close to each other.
The second subdivision of the Space of the Ancients, we will call the Space of the Ancients/Noah and comprises the period in which Lamech and Noah lived.
The third subdivision of the Space of the Ancients, we will call the Space of the Ancients/Eber and comprises the period in which Shem, Arpachshad, Salah and Eber lived.
The fourth subdivision of the Space of the Ancients, we will call the Space of the Ancients/Joseph and comprises the period in which Peleg, Reu, Serug, Nahor, Terah, Abram, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph of Egypt lived.
Our division of these time-spaces into four parts is due to the following reasons:
The Space of the Ancients/Methuselah was chosen for mathematical reasons, aiming at a choice of values that would be representative for calculating an average. But it was also chosen at the same time because it is a period of time prior to the flood.
This period of 1056 years for the age of the earth, covers from the first day of Adam on earth until the day of Noah's birth. It presents an arithmetic average of 926.14 years for the lifespan of a human being. And on the other hand, in a physical assumption, this period of the earth certainly represents a time when it had other climatic, biological and geographical conditions, and this geography would not be anything like the current one.
For the sake of representativeness of the average, Enoch's lifespan was not part of this calculation, because Enoch lived only 360 years and he did not actually die, he was taken directly to heaven according to the Bible.
The Space of the Ancients/Noah was chosen because this period covers a time of transition between the period before the flood and after the flood, and because the Bible informs that Noah was 600 years old when the flood occurred, so this value of 600 years is the period of age of the earth chosen for this Third space-time-Part 2. The previous period of 1056 years for the age of the earth added to this one, accumulates for the age of the earth, a total of 1656 years. In this case, the climatic conditions also seem not to have influenced Noah's biology, because he lived another 350 years after the flood, as if the new climatic and biological conditions did not affect him. In this period of time, the arithmetic average lifespan of these patriarchs was 863.5 years.
The Space of the Ancients/Eber was chosen because this period covers a time of transition to the new conditions of the earth after the flood. There is an immediate variation in the quantitative aspect of human ages, a sharp decline in the fall of these values. From Shem, Noah's son, to Eber, we see that this period for the earth covers 99 years of passage and presents the arithmetic mean of human age as 483.75 years. In this way, the age of the earth now accumulates another 99 years, resulting in an accumulated total of 1755 years.
The Ancients/Joseph Period was chosen because this period also encompasses a time of transition to the present conditions of the earth. It is also noted, as in the previous period, a marked variation of decline in the quantitative aspect, for example Peleg reaches 239 years of age and Joseph of Egypt reaches 110 years of age, much less than Peleg in the same period of the earth of 400 years.
From Peleg to Joseph of Egypt, the arithmetic average age of a human being reaches the value of 185.88 years. Thus, the age of the earth now accumulates another 400 years, resulting in a cumulative total of 2155 years.
It is worth making a small summary table of this data obtained.

Table 001
Adam was not born through normal childbirth, in a common birth, because according to the Bible he was created in heaven, in the Paradise Space that we defined before, and there he was eternal, his life on earth only begins here in Genesis chapter 5, after his transfer from Paradise.
The information used as the basis for these time studies developed here comes from the texts of the Christian Holy Bible, AFC version, that is, Almeida, Fiel e Corrigida, found in the book of Genesis, chapters 5 to 50.
For a more general understanding of our research for this space-time, we made the following Gantt chart, with the patriarchal ages from the book of Genesis.
I had difficulty in knowing the exact date of Joseph of Egypt's birth, just by reading the book of Genesis. So we evaluated the probable date of Joseph of Egypt's birth and researched
in addition to our evaluation, websites on the internet and found the age from Adam to Joseph's death to be 2306 years. On our map, we placed 2307 years with a difference of only 1 year between the researches. This value does not cause mathematical differences in the results, as we will see in the mathematical developments in the following chapters.
The bars in red represent the time until the birth of the patriarch. The bars in blue represent the lifespan of the patriarch. A very interesting detail is to note that no patriarch lived until the flood, with the exception of Noah and his family, which the graph demonstrates quite clearly. Another interesting detail is that Lamech died about five years before the flood at the age of 770, and Methuselah died exactly in the year of the flood and was already quite advanced in age at 969.
