REBOOTING THE BIBLE PART 2 - shows how the original timeline of the Greek Septuagint (LXX, translated from a Hebrew text 400 years older than that used in the Masoretic Text - MT) dramatically revises the traditional stories of Eden, Adam and Eve, the Fall, the Descent of the Watchers, the Flood, the Tower of Babel, Nimrod, the dispersal of humanity after the Flood, and the "division of the nations" at the time of Peleg.These revisions do not change the text of the infallible Scripture; rather, they reverse myths and falsehoods from non-canonical works like the books of Jasher and Jubilees. Likewise, Woodward reiterates the corruptions from second-century rabbis who altered Messianic passages and the chronologies of Genesis 5 and 11, addressing problems posed when secular and sacred histories are compared.Woodward reprises the evidence for the accuracy and authenticity of the Septuagint's timeline in Part 2. But Part 2 goes well beyond Part 1, walking the reader through the ancient accounts in Genesis 1-11, explaining how these familiar stories should be understood. What is the underlying problem? The LXX adds back 1,500 years taken out of the chronology of the MT used in our Protestant Bibles. Some Examples: Adam and Eve were created in 5500 B.C. (and not 4000 B.C.), the Flood of Noah happened 1,000 years earlier than the Protestant Bible says (circa 3360 B.C. instead of 2348 B.C.), the Tower of Babel 900 years earlier (circa 3100 B.C. instead of 2200 B.C.) and why Nimrod's father, not Nimrod, led the rebellion at Babel. Fixing these issues in the MT rightly aligns the Bible with secular archeology from Mesopotamia and Egypt, and resolves some of the most difficult challenges surfaced by secular science.“In Part 2 of Rebooting the Bible, to his credit, Doug doesn’t shy away from the weird parts of the Torah either—Nimrod, Noah, and the “sons of God” from Genesis 6:1-4, progenitors of the monstrous, giant Nephilim—are all considered and addressed with scholarly analysis. And for an encore, he tackles how to reconcile alternate history, made familiar in best-selling books, YouTube, and the History Channel, with Genesis Chapter 1.” -- From the Foreword by Derek P.
