CHART OF BIBLE HISTORY.

THE Geography and the History of the Bible are so closely united that neither subject can be studied to advantage without the other. We therefore present at the opening of our work the Chart of Bible History, upon which the leading events of Bible History and those of the ancient world in general are arranged in parallel columns. The blue lines extending across the page represent the centuries before Christ, each space between them being 100 years. Until recently the common chronology found in all reference Bibles and Biblical works, was that prepared by Archbishop Ussher, who died in 1656, long before the present sources of information from "the monuments" had been discovered. His chronology has not been regarded as trustworthy by scholars for thirty years past; but until recently it has been retained because students of Biblical and Ancient History were not agreed as to the dates which should be given in place of it. But there is now a substantial, though not complete agreement among scholars; and we therefore discard the Ussherian system, and adopt that obtained from the information given in the inscriptions of Assyria, Babylonia, and Egypt, when compared with statements in the Bible.

We begin at the date 2500 B.C. as the events of Bible History earlier than 2500 B.C. cannot be fixed with any certainty. And it must be admitted that none of the dates earlier than 1000 B.C. can be regarded as established.

c. 1010. David, King. 1010--David King over Judah.

Pre-2500 B.C. Period of Early Races, from the deluge. The United Races to the Dispersion. . 4700--Egypt founded by Menes. Old Kingdom . Memphis earliest capital. 4500 B.C.--Kingdoms existing in Babylonia. Dates earlier than 700 B.C. traditional and uncertain. 3900--Rise of Ur to power. 3500--Pyramids built . 3000--Nineveh in existence. 2900--Middle kingdom begins . 2850--China founded by Fu-hi.

c. 2256 Isaac.

JOURNEYS

PERSIAN 458. Ezra.

c. 2232--The Offering of Isaac on Mount Moriah.

c. 2045--Death of Jacob in Egypt.

During the middle kingdom, 2900-1570 B.C. Thebes was capital until about 2000 B.C. The dates are very uncertain, but between 2500 and 2000 B.C. the kingdom declined. 12th Dynasty 2500-2300.
