Hey Matt ... A little tip from the world of archeology. Around 17.40 you report correctly that the Israelites were amost certainly Cainnanites. But you might want to look at the research that discovered Hebrew names written on artifacts in the Nile River valley from the mate bronze age.
Great video, but I think it's important to mention that the Madai were essentially Persians from Persia, where the three Magi who visited the Christ child originated.

@@mushtaqmasih The Book of Enoch, also known as 1 Enoch, is an ancient Jewish apocalyptic text traditionally attributed to Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah. However, it is important to note that the authorship of the Book of Enoch is not definitively established, and scholars generally believe that it was composed by multiple authors over several centuries. ### Key Points About the Book of Enoch: 1. Composition: The Book of Enoch is thought to have been written between the 3rd century BCE and the 1st century CE. It is divided into several sections, including: - The Book of Watchers - The Book of Parables - The Astronomical Book - The Book of Dream Visions - The Epistle of Enoch 2. Attribution to Enoch: The text is named after Enoch, building on the biblical figure mentioned in Genesis (Genesis 5:21-24), who "walked with God" and was taken by God. The attribution to Enoch serves to give the text a sense of authority and legitimacy. 3. Historical Context: The Book of Enoch reflects the beliefs, traditions, and concerns of Jewish communities during the Second Temple period. It deals with themes such as divine judgment, the fate of sinners, the coming of a messianic kingdom, and the nature of angels. 4. Canonical Status: The Book of Enoch is not considered canonical by most branches of Judaism or Christianity. However, it is regarded as an important work in the study of early Jewish thought and is cited in some early Christian writings. 5. Survival and Influence: The Book of Enoch was preserved primarily in the Ge'ez language (an ancient Ethiopian language) and is part of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church's biblical canon. It has influenced various religious traditions and has garnered interest in modern scholarship regarding apocalyptic literature. In summary, while the Book of Enoch is attributed to Enoch, it is unlikely that a single individual authored it. Instead, it is a composite work reflecting a range of ideas and traditions from ancient Jewish thought.
The first half is so interesting to me, right after reading Cline´s book on the aftermath of the late bronze age collapse in the region (titled After 1177 BC), because you can kind of see where the archaeological record lines up with the biblical stories (and where it doesn´t). Highly recommend that book, by the way!
The commonality of flood myths could also be simply because major civilizations tend to spring up around rivers, which tend to flood seasonally, and occasionally they flood catastrophically if the winter brought lots of snow to the mountains or the spring rains were unusually heavy [like during El Nino/La Nina type events]
The lower Mississippi turns some places into lakes during its floods. The Nile is the same way. Before levees, rivers turned those deltas into lakes with dotted with islands. This is true for all major river systems around the world.
And how about this for a thought. it could simply because it was a flood that was worldwide like the Bible says and evidence shows. in auto mechanics they say look for the simple answer first then look for other stuff Why so doubt although it's good to question what are you getting out of questioning are you getting closer to the truth?
Good to note for the genealogy of Jesus in 1:08:00 that at the time Jews at the time believe you are Jewish based off of the father and today it is the mother. (which makes more sense) So that is a possibility to explain the differences.
@@Cashiyado Before DNA testing, there was sometimes doubt over who fathered a natural son. (Even today, in fact, there are cases where identical-twin brothers who slept with the same woman cannot be distinguished.) 🤔 Whereas determining who brought forth a baby simply involves checking the birth records. 🤱
@@Cashiyado You can tell who gave birth. But traditionally the woman moved into the fathers family. It was always assumed the woman wasn't cheating and it was uncommon to do so at the time.
Considering the fact that a whole lot of people converted to the faith of Israel in the OT, and were placed in a tribe, and they and their descendants were counted as natural born of Israel. All them ppl going by either patrineality or matrineality, was a moot point. The biblical genealogy is patrineality, and is only for the purpose of showing Jesus Christ to be the root and offspring of David. Also, in the OT, if the father was an Israelite and the mother was not, the child was an Israelite. If the father was not and the mother was an Israelite, the child was called Israelitish. So the matrineality of Judaism is far removed from the faith of the OT, not that anyone other than Jesus's genealogy matter anyway...

Also, based on my readings: in the event known as The Visitation, teenage Mary, newly pregnant with Jesus, travels alone to visit her first cousin elderly Elizabeth (I think she was in her 80's) and assist Elizabeth with her pregnancy. Mary stays with Elizabeth until Elizabeth gives birth 3 months later. Mary then returns to her hubby Joseph. Then teenage Mary gives birth to Jesus, alone, without any assistance from anybody, based on her experience at her cousin Elizabeth's delivery. Elizabeth's husband Zakariah was killed in the temple where he worked, by Herod's soldiers, when he refused to tell them where his son John the Baptist was hidden. During The Killing of the Innocents.
Hagar was Sarah’s handmaid who served her (as her slave), she was given to Abraham to bear a child for Sarah (as was their culture), Abraham did not marry her. Abraham did not marry again until after Sarah died when he married Keturah & had 6 more sons (fathers of the Arab nations).
Joseph of Arimathea may have been a relative of Mary, with members of the family, including Jesus, buried in one of two tombs in his property. The ossuaries are in a museum storeroom in Jerusalem. I wonder how adding clay to the skull of that Jesus would look.
18:55 - Samuel is described as an Ephraimite in 1 Samuel 1:1. It is only in the later Book of 1 Chronicles (6:19-27) that describes him as a Levite. The latter source-writing in the Second Temple Period-probably changed Samuel’s tribe because, by the Chronicler’s time at least, only Levites were recognized as priests.
You're assuming incorrectly that genealogy and nationality are the same. Samuel's father is a Levite, but he dwelled in the hill country of Ephraim. That makes him a Levite from the land of Ephraim. The book of Chronicles is concerned with establishing geneologies whereas in Samuel it simply designates where he is from.
@@CorbanDallasMultipass 1 Samuel 1 describes Samuel’s father Elkanah as both “from Ephraim” (nationality) and “an Ephraimite” (genealogy). There is no room here for Samuel to be a Levite from Ephraim. 1 Chronicles 6:18-23 list Samuel as a Levite. This is an inconsistency between two different sources.

They are from a mosaic on the wall of a synagogue in Jerusalem. The mosaic itself is modern but the imagery associated with each tribe goes back to the medieval period.
Im going to be honest, going thr cousin route is odd and ignores the text. Hebrew might not distinguish between siblings and cousins, but Greek certainly does. Not to mention that John the Baptist, who we know to be a cousin, is not labelled as a brother to Jesus.
In Spain, up until a generation ago, practically all girls were named "Maria." Thus, they often went by their middle names. And in ancient times, there were much fewer names to go around. In ancient Rome, for instance, so many important people had similar 1st and 2nd names that modern historians tend to refer to them by their 3rd or even 4th names! e.g. "Gaius Julius Caesar Aurelia" ("Julius Caesar") and "Gaius Julius Caesar Augustus" ("Caesar Augustus"). In fact, two significant Roman figures, born a generation apart, were BOTH named "Gaius Plinius Caecilius Secundus." Thus, we English speakers refer to them simply as "Pliny the Elder" and "Pliny the Younger."
Mary Magdalene was referred to as Mary of Magdalen (a place name). Mary of Bethany was Martha and Lazarus' sister. So is Bethany another name for Magdalen?
The three races thing is just a generalization. Like they're saying at a point when there was only so many ppl, that the separation eventually lead to 3 main types of peoples. But naturally over the course of millennia, these groups also spread out and mixed with each other to then create new bloodlines and new types of people, leading to the 100s of types we have today. It's not like Noah had one son who was black and one son who was white and an Asian but this point in history is so far back that when they spread out, geography and the conditions created different races. I heard some where that white people are really only been a thing for 10k years or so , a lot of that was from diet and where they lived
Anyone else ever thought it was weird that adam and eve had a third son named seth and then you learn about the ancient egyptian god named set, who was often portrayed as dangerous or antagonistic? Was that done on purpose when the scrolls were written later on or just one of those weird coincidences?
Thanks for the sharing and let me share something with you too. As I found using BCE to calculate the total number of years of the Old Testament not easy, I count it from Adam instead. [Genesis chapter 5] ▶ [Genesis 6:5, 6:11-13, 6:17] ▶ [Genesis 7:11] 1st-10th: Adam(age 130 had begotten)➡2nd-Seth(105)➡3th-Enos(90)➡4th-Cainan(70)➡5th-Mahalaleel(65)➡6th-Jared(162)➡7th-Enoch(65)➡8th-Methuselah(187)➡9th-Lamech(182)➡10th-Noah(500) begat Shem(be blessed), Ham(firstborn), Japheth(youngest son)/Noah(600) the flood waters was upon the earth. =1656 years [Genesis chapter 11] 1656 years add(+) 11th-Shem(+2years after the flood)➡20th-Abram/Abraham Abraham, 20th from Adam =1948 years (Coincidently, Israel declared Independence in 1948 A.D.) [Genesis 21:5] ▶ [Genesis 25:26] ▶ [Genesis 32:28] ▶ [Genesis 32:28] ▶ [Genesis 47:9] ▶ [Exodus 12:36 & 12:41] fulfilled the word of God [Genesis 15:13-14] ▶ [1 Kings 6:1] 1948 years add(+) Abraham(100)➡Isaac(60)➡Esau & Jacob ➡ Israel(130) ➡ the whole family, 70 members sojourned in Egypt(430)➡after the children of Israel coming out of the land of Egypt(480)➡Solomon began to build the house of the Lord. =3148 years [1 Kings & 2 Kings] ▶[2 Kings chapter 25] 3148 years add(+) From Solomon(362) / (the house of David had reigned for 406 years)➡ By 586 BCE, much of Judah had been devastated. The Old Testament = 4096 years in total
In the Zugot (pairs) period, the Nasi (president) was the head of "government," and the Av Beit Din (father of court) was the head of law and religion - not a vice president.
Love the charts! Not sure if this has been mentioned but around the 9:30 mark you discuss how the Biblical writers weren't aware of the people living on the other continents and only knew of what was around them. This is only correct because there was no other humans inhabiting other continents. The flood and Noah happened in Genesis 6. So from that event there would only be the 3 sons later down the road in Genesis 11 the tower of babel occurs. That is when the far regions of the world become inhabited and wasn't until then. This would change the narrative that the writers just didn't know while also giving credence that everyone currently is a descendant of Noah's 3 sons, or Noah himself.
I wonder if anyone lived through and remembered the whole Babylonian exile. Born in Israel > At 20 Years old get exiled > Spend 49 years in exile > Come back to Israel at 69
@4:00 The extra names look like they have Mesopotamian influence, I wouldn't doubt if they were added from Babylonian myths. The story of Noah has roots from the Epic of Gilgamesh, with Utnapishtim, who scholars believe may be the basis.
God created more people besides Adam and Eve and it is explained that after Cain killed Abel God exiled Cain and put a seal on his forehead so that "anyone" comes across him or finds him they will not harm him. There shouldn't be anyone to harm Cain if there were no other people. This proves that God made other people and Seth their third son was not born yet
The genealogies are adequate but not complete. No matter how you read the genealogies, you must concede that there are gaps. Also Biblical Hebrew has a limited vocabulary, with fewer words compared to other languages, such as English. Thus genealogical terms like “son” and “father” have much broader meanings than their corresponding English words. Thus “son” (ben, 1121) means son, grandson, great grandson, and descendent. Similarly, “father” (ab, 1) means father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and ancestor.
@@UsefulCharts Thank you very much...I have purchased it....I think this will be an amazing resource for building the vast outline of the bible into my memory using this new perspective......!!!
I have sometimes heard it claimed that Jesus is the descendant of an ancestor produced by the congress of Lot and one of his daughters. So, according to this chart, this is not true?
Something I’ve wondered since I started learning about the history of religion: Is it considered heresy under Christian theology to acknowledge that certain stories or figures are mythical? Or is it only heretical to deny Jesus’s personhood and/or Godhood?
very much depends who you ask. christianity is not a monolith, and in my church it’s totally acceptable to believe that certain parts of the bible are just stories/allegories. we even have some of matt’s charts in the youth group room! there are other congregations from my same denomination that believe the bible (specifically the KJV) is 100% factual and to question that is completely out of line.
Ask the Orthodox Church, don't ask the Protestants in America, there are too many denoms with different opinions and beliefs that make people confused about Christianity
@@jemmaisweirdIt's teachings like this that have made many Christians in America become atheists because there's no clarity on what the true faith is. People just choose what they want to believe. That's what led to people arguing with each other about which one is true and ended up founding other churches that suited their mindset.
My Old Testament prof was fond of saying that "the ink was probably still wet" when the texts were "rediscovered" during Josiah's reign. Hope you're well Dr. Bembry.
Just a thought...for the biblical composition timeline, would we want to put the chunks with alleged earlier authorships like the Song of Deborah, Song of the Sea etc 'earlier up' on the timeline closer to their supposedly more likely written timeperiod?
@9:55, is it true that the Biblical authors wouldn’t know about places outside of Northeastern Africa, Europe, and Western Asia? I was under the impression that long-distance trade was common enough by the Iron Age that they would.
Irrelevant. The only 3 males who survived the flood and had children were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. There was only one race after the flood. All racial and ethnic diversity today comes from those 3 men and their wives. It would not matter if later writers knew about others or not. It would not change the fact that they all have the same origin.
I think it would be interesting if you compare and analyze the similarities and differences between the Bible & the Qur'an, regarding the biblical stories😂
Hi, I'm an Italian student. Excellent work. Congratulations. I need some clarification regarding the dates of Kings... You put the start of Kingdoms of Judah and Israel 930 BCE...

I think Enoch should be somehow marked as well as he was an important character for some authors
Well Jesus himself quoted Enoch so it should be there.
Enoch is Prophet and author of Book of Enoch

InspiringPhilosophy and Matt Baker combined in a dialogue on the bible would be epic!
Could you do one on world coins evolution?
Mary Magdalene was referred to as Mary of Magdalen (a place name). Mary of Bethany was Martha and Lazarus' sister. So is Bethany another name for Magdalen?
The three races thing is just a generalization. Like they're saying at a point when there was only so many ppl, that the separation eventually lead to 3 main types of peoples. But naturally over the course of millennia, these groups also spread out and mixed with each other to then create new bloodlines and new types of people, leading to the 100s of types we have today. It's not like Noah had one son who was black and one son who was white and an Asian but this point in history is so far back that when they spread out, geography and the conditions created different races.
I heard some where that white people are really only been a thing for 10k years or so , a lot of that was from diet and where they lived
Anyone else ever thought it was weird that adam and eve had a third son named seth and then you learn about the ancient egyptian god named set, who was often portrayed as dangerous or antagonistic? Was that done on purpose when the scrolls were written later on or just one of those weird coincidences?
Well I know what I'm doing for the next hour and ten.
It’s good to see nepotism was just as prevalent.
Thanks for the sharing and let me share something with you too.
As I found using BCE to calculate the total number of years of the Old Testament not easy, I count it from Adam instead.
[Genesis chapter 5] ▶ [Genesis 6:5, 6:11-13, 6:17] ▶ [Genesis 7:11]
1st-10th: Adam(age 130 had begotten)➡2nd-Seth(105)➡3th-Enos(90)➡4th-Cainan(70)➡5th-Mahalaleel(65)➡6th-Jared(162)➡7th-Enoch(65)➡8th-Methuselah(187)➡9th-Lamech(182)➡10th-Noah(500) begat Shem(be blessed), Ham(firstborn), Japheth(youngest son)/Noah(600) the flood waters was upon the earth.
=1656 years
[Genesis chapter 11]
1656 years add(+)
11th-Shem(+2years after the flood)➡20th-Abram/Abraham
Abraham, 20th from Adam
=1948 years
(Coincidently, Israel declared Independence in 1948 A.D.)
[Genesis 21:5] ▶ [Genesis 25:26] ▶ [Genesis 32:28] ▶ [Genesis 32:28] ▶ [Genesis 47:9] ▶ [Exodus 12:36 & 12:41] fulfilled the word of God [Genesis 15:13-14] ▶ [1 Kings 6:1]
1948 years add(+)
Abraham(100)➡Isaac(60)➡Esau & Jacob ➡ Israel(130) ➡ the whole family, 70 members sojourned in Egypt(430)➡after the children of Israel coming out of the land of Egypt(480)➡Solomon began to build the house of the Lord.
=3148 years
[1 Kings & 2 Kings] ▶[2 Kings chapter 25]
3148 years add(+)
From Solomon(362) / (the house of David had reigned for 406 years)➡ By 586 BCE, much of Judah had been devastated.
The Old Testament = 4096 years in total
Japeth begat Gomer, Gomer begat ashkenaz
In the Zugot (pairs) period, the Nasi (president) was the head of "government," and the Av Beit Din (father of court) was the head of law and religion - not a vice president.
Your chart shows Amon as the son of Manasseh, but you said "Ahaz." Which one is correct?
Noticed that, too.
the chart
Love the charts! Not sure if this has been mentioned but around the 9:30 mark you discuss how the Biblical writers weren't aware of the people living on the other continents and only knew of what was around them. This is only correct because there was no other humans inhabiting other continents. The flood and Noah happened in Genesis 6. So from that event there would only be the 3 sons later down the road in Genesis 11 the tower of babel occurs. That is when the far regions of the world become inhabited and wasn't until then. This would change the narrative that the writers just didn't know while also giving credence that everyone currently is a descendant of Noah's 3 sons, or Noah himself.
I wonder if anyone lived through and remembered the whole Babylonian exile. Born in Israel > At 20 Years old get exiled > Spend 49 years in exile > Come back to Israel at 69
I like how they have Adam and then Eve... Then Cain and Abel... Then yada yada yada yada yada Noah.... We just won't talk about how we got there lol
Can’t stop and correct each incorrect secular comment throughout the entire 1hr video
@4:00 The extra names look like they have Mesopotamian influence, I wouldn't doubt if they were added from Babylonian myths. The story of Noah has roots from the Epic of Gilgamesh, with Utnapishtim, who scholars believe may be the basis.
God created more people besides Adam and Eve and it is explained that after Cain killed Abel God exiled Cain and put a seal on his forehead so that "anyone" comes across him or finds him they will not harm him. There shouldn't be anyone to harm Cain if there were no other people. This proves that God made other people and Seth their third son was not born yet
Ishmael should be mentioned too because of his importance to Islam
I’m a descendent of David so this is like my family tree
Literally impossible as David didn't exist.
The genealogies are adequate but not complete. No matter how you read the genealogies, you must concede that there are gaps. Also Biblical Hebrew has a limited vocabulary, with fewer words compared to other languages, such as English. Thus genealogical terms like “son” and “father” have much broader meanings than their corresponding English words. Thus “son” (ben, 1121) means son, grandson, great grandson, and descendent. Similarly, “father” (ab, 1) means father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and ancestor.
This is my good opportunity
Interesting
Regardless of which line is correct, that's a really big family...
Hey can you do the next video. Who would be the emir of Bukhara?
Does the chart you are selling contain all of the charts you used in this video ?.......thanks for all your hard work....!!
Yes, except for the extended chart of Jesus's family shown at the end, since that is based on tradition rather than the Bible.
@@UsefulCharts Thank you very much...I have purchased it....I think this will be an amazing resource for building the vast outline of the bible into my memory using this new perspective......!!!
I have sometimes heard it claimed that Jesus is the descendant of an ancestor produced by the congress of Lot and one of his daughters. So, according to this chart, this is not true?
One of His ancestors, Ruth, a moabite, descends from Lot. She married Boaz, an israelite. He was king David's Great grandfather.
Samuel was a Ephraimite "1st Samuel 1:1"
Something I’ve wondered since I started learning about the history of religion: Is it considered heresy under Christian theology to acknowledge that certain stories or figures are mythical? Or is it only heretical to deny Jesus’s personhood and/or Godhood?
very much depends who you ask. christianity is not a monolith, and in my church it’s totally acceptable to believe that certain parts of the bible are just stories/allegories. we even have some of matt’s charts in the youth group room!
there are other congregations from my same denomination that believe the bible (specifically the KJV) is 100% factual and to question that is completely out of line.
heresy is simply the deliberate spreading of falsehoods
Ask the Orthodox Church, don't ask the Protestants in America, there are too many denoms with different opinions and beliefs that make people confused about Christianity
@@jemmaisweirdIt's teachings like this that have made many Christians in America become atheists because there's no clarity on what the true faith is. People just choose what they want to believe. That's what led to people arguing with each other about which one is true and ended up founding other churches that suited their mindset.
not sure if you take requests but if you do, how about "who would be the shogun of japan today?"
I counted them at 14:49 and there are ten of Jacobs sons in yellow
My Old Testament prof was fond of saying that "the ink was probably still wet" when the texts were "rediscovered" during Josiah's reign. Hope you're well Dr. Bembry.
That wouldn't be surprising.
This video has represented a recent view. I have been watching this channel for many years, please go back to the old vids
Might cop this poster
In Judaism, Daniel isn't a "major prophet." In fact, his book isn't even included among the prophetic books.
How do you explain the genealogy in the 4. Th chapter of Ruth was prophesied in the 38 th chapter of Genesis on 49 letters intervals?
Just a thought...for the biblical composition timeline, would we want to put the chunks with alleged earlier authorships like the Song of Deborah, Song of the Sea etc 'earlier up' on the timeline closer to their supposedly more likely written timeperiod?
Brahmin and saraswati are definitely indoeuropean so it's unlikely theyre related to abraham and sarah
Why does the chart not show that Abraham and Sarah are half-siblings? The family tree chart in your Timeline of the Bible book states that.
@9:55, is it true that the Biblical authors wouldn’t know about places outside of Northeastern Africa, Europe, and Western Asia? I was under the impression that long-distance trade was common enough by the Iron Age that they would.
Irrelevant. The only 3 males who survived the flood and had children were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. There was only one race after the flood. All racial and ethnic diversity today comes from those 3 men and their wives.
It would not matter if later writers knew about others or not. It would not change the fact that they all have the same origin.
It's pronounced Jay-feth the ph isn't separately pronounced, they're pronounced together having the f sound
39:39 You said Ahaz instead of Amon.
I think it would be interesting if you compare and analyze the similarities and differences between the Bible & the Qur'an, regarding the biblical stories😂
Hi, I'm an Italian student. Excellent work. Congratulations. I need some clarification regarding the dates of Kings... You put the start of Kingdoms of Judah and Israel 930 BCE... Do you take this reference from? Thiele, Galil, Albright... Anyway, I see a cronology that start this Kingdom 997 BCE. Isn't possible?? Thanks
The people from those 3 categories spread all over the world
