Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Chronology of the Bible Very few words are needed to show the importance of Chronology. The moral teachings of History may gain our warmer admiration, but Chronology is the skeleton or framework which supports the several parts of History, and saves the whole from falling into a confused heap. The Hebrew Chronology, in particular, has many claims on our notice; first, for its help towards our understanding the Bible; and, secondly, for its contribution towards the Chronology of the neighbouring nations, particularly of Egypt and Assyria. The Chronology of the ancient world is indebted first to Babylon for its recorded eclipses, preserved for us by Claudius Ptolemy the Astronomer, and then to those countries that were ruled by a succession of monarchs, whose reigns measured time with a convenience unknown to their republican neighbours.
