Les Feldick Bible Study

What comes after Adam, the Flood, and the Tower of Babel in the biblical timeline?

According to the biblical timeline, following Adam, the Flood, and the Tower of Babel comes the call of Abraham and the appearance of the nation of Israel; then 500 years later Moses, the Exodus, and the Law, followed by the Old Testament writers, prophets, and Psalms, all pointing to Christ's First Advent.

Les explains that once past the first 11 chapters of Scripture—covering Adam, the Flood, and the Tower of Babel—the call of Abraham and the appearance of the nation of Israel come next. Then, 500 years later, comes Moses and the Exodus experience, along with the Law. After that come all the rest of the Old Testament writers, the prophets, the Psalms, and everything else. Les notes that everything now prophetically looks forward to and promises the First Advent of Christ, His birth at Bethlehem, when He came to the nation of Israel. He also refers to Psalms chapter 2 as the outline of this Old Testament prophetic program.
