\u201cNay, who is there that cannot easily gather from the Greek writers themselves, that they knew but little on any good foundation when they set to write, but rather wrote their histories from their own conjectures? Accordingly, they confute one another in their own books on purpose, and are not ashamed to give us the most contradictory accounts of the same things.\u201d14<\/a><\/sup> Josephus Against Apion<\/em> 1.2, 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They are deceived, too, by those highly mendacious documents which profess to give the history of many thousand years, though, reckoning by the sacred writings, we find that not 6000 years have yet passed. And, not to spend many words in exposing the baselessness of these documents, in which so many thousands of years are accounted for, nor in proving that their authorities are totally inadequate, let me cite only that letter which Alexander the Great wrote to his mother Olympias, giving her the narrative he had from an Egyptian<\/a> priest<\/a>, which he had extracted from their sacred archives, and which gave an account of kingdoms mentioned also by the Greek historians. In this letter of Alexander’s a term of upwards of 5000 years is assigned to the kingdom of Assyria; while in the Greek history only 1300 years are reckoned from the reign of Bel himself, whom both Greek and Egyptian<\/a> agree in counting the first king of Assyria. Then to the empire of the Persians and Macedonians this Egyptian<\/a> assigned more than 8000 years, counting to the time of Alexander, to whom he was speaking; while among the Greeks, 485 years are assigned to the Macedonians down to the death of Alexander, and to the Persians 233 years, reckoning to the termination of his conquests. Thus these give a much smaller number of years than the Egyptians<\/a>; and indeed, though multiplied three times, the Greek chronology would still be shorter. For the Egyptians<\/a> are said to have formerly reckoned only four months to their year; so that one year, according to the fuller and truer<\/a> computation now in use among them as well as among ourselves, would comprehend three of their old years. But not even thus, as I said, does the Greek history correspond with the Egyptian<\/a> in its chronology. And therefore the former must receive the greater credit, because it does not exceed the true<\/a> account of the duration of the world as it is given by our documents, which are truly<\/a> sacred. Further, if this letter of Alexander, which has become so famous, differs widely in this matter of chronology from the probable credible account, how much less can we believe<\/a> these documents which, though full of fabulous and fictitious antiquities, they would fain oppose to the authority of our well-known and divine books, which predicted that the whole world would believe<\/a> them, and which the whole world accordingly has believed<\/a>; which proved<\/a>, too, that it had truly<\/a> narrated past events by its prediction of future events, which have so exactly come to pass!<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are some, again, who, though they do not suppose that this world is eternal<\/a>, are of opinion either that this is not the only world, but that there are numberless worlds or that indeed it is the only one, but that it dies, and is born again at fixed intervals, and this times without number; but they must acknowledge that the human race<\/a> existed<\/a> before there were other men to beget them. For they cannot suppose that, if the whole world perish, some men would be left alive in the world, as they might survive in floods and conflagrations, which those other speculators suppose to be partial, and from which they can therefore reasonably argue that a few then survived whose posterity would renew the population; but as they believe<\/a> that the world itself is renewed out of its own material, so they must believe<\/a> that out of its elements the human race<\/a> was produced, and then that the progeny of mortals sprang like that of other animals from their parents<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n City of God book XII https:\/\/www.newadvent.org\/fathers\/120112.htm<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/creation.com\/hugh-ross-church-fathers<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n The idea of millions of years did not come from the scientific facts.<\/strong> This idea of long ages was developed by deistic and atheistic geologists in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The \u201cdeep time\u201d idea flows out of naturalistic assumptions, not scientific observations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The first Thirthankar \u201cAadi<\/strong>-nath\u201d used to exist when there used to be \u201cKalpvrakhsa\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This requieres more investigation*<\/p>\n\n\n\n The ancient\u00a0Egyptian calendar<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 a civil calendar \u2013 was a\u00a0solar calendar<\/a>\u00a0with a 365-day year.
