Chronology Of Important Events Before and After Christ-When were Abram and Moses born

Chronology Of Important Events Before and After Christ
When were Abram and Moses born, and when did they die?
The Exodus occurred around 1447 BC. Moses was 80 years old at the time, so he would have been
born around 1527 BC and died around 1407 BC.

The Israelites had lived in Egypt 430 years prior to the Exodus (Exod. 12:40), that is from 1877 BC,
and had moved there during the time of Joseph, who was the third generation after Abram. Abram
was 100 years old when his son Isaac was born (Gen. 21:5), and Isaac was 60 years old when Jacob
was born (Gen. 25:26). Jacob married after Esau, who married when Jacob was 40 years old. I'm not
sure how old Jacob was when Joseph was born, but it was near the end of the time in which he was
still living under Laban's (Gen. 30:25ff.), at least 14 years after Esau married. Jacob and his family
moved to Egypt when Joseph was at least 37 years old (Gen. 41:46ff.). So, Abraham was born at
least 251 years before the nation moved to Israel, 681 years before the Exodus. He must have been
born by the year 2128 BC, and he must have died by the year 1953 BC (Gen. 25:7). Answer by Ra

About 2100 BC (about 4100 years ago): Abraham was born with the name Abram. Estimates as to
the era in which Abraham lived can vary from 2100 BC to 1800 BC (sometime between 4100 years
ago and 3800 years ago). Details about Abraham's life are provided in the Bible's book of Genesis,
primarily in chapters 11 through 25.

The Slavery in Egypt
One common misunderstanding of Biblical chronology is the thinking that the children of Israel were
slaves in Egypt for 400 years. In actuality, the time was much shorter.
The belief that the children of Israel were slaves in Egypt for 400 years is largely based upon these
two verses, "And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land
that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years ..." (Genesis
15:13). "And God spoke on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they
should bring them into bondage, and entreat them evil four hundred years" (Acts 7:6).
Then there is this passage in Exodus, "Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in
Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years. And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and
thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the
land of Egypt" (Exodus 12:40-41). This does not mean that the children of Israel dwelt in Egypt 430
years. Paul explains that the 430 years extends from the time of God's covenant with Abraham until
the children of Israel left Egypt. "And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God
in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make
the promise of none effect" (Galatians 3:17).
