One of the astounding aspects of the Bible is its chronology. From the creation of the cosmos to the crucifixion of Christ, the Bible presents a prophetic timeline that is truly wondrous! While this timeline was accepted by pretty much all Christians up until the 19th century, there has been much doubt since then regarding its reliability. But there need not be! Modern discoveries from the Dead Sea Scrolls as well as a recovery of the chronology from the Septuagint has made modern history and archaeology fit hand and glove with what the Bible presents. We do not follow cunningly devised fables! (2 Pet 1:16)
