8/26/2023 0 Comments Joseph bible timeline![]() This event from supposedly 4,200 years ago is based on U-Th dating on a stalagmite in Mawmluh Cave in the Meghalaya region of India and is also listed in the most recent International Commission on Stratigraphy update to the geological timescale as the start of the current age, the Meghalayan. A recent Nature article posed the question, “Did a mega drought topple empires 4,200 years ago?” 1 Although the date does not line up with biblical timelines, as there are problems with radiometric dating methods that have been discussed extensively on this website, we find close agreement with the famine mentioned in Genesis 41 during the time of Joseph’s release from prison and subsequent elevation to “second to Pharaoh” in Egypt.
