Patriarchal Chronology

Because of the changes made to the lengths of the Patriarchs' lifetimes, a great latitude must be given with regards to chronology in this chart. The Masoretes made changes to the Holy Scriptures sometime after the Crucifixion, but before about 300 A.D. Ephrem the Syrian testified to this and accused the" Jews" of subtracting at least 600 years from the text in order to deny that Yahshua was the Messiah who had come at the appointed time.
