FAMILY TREE
The genealogies in Genesis 5 and 11 give unusual detail about
the 10 generations between Adam and Noah and the 10 generations
between Noah and Abraham. Consider the people recording this
information and these forebearers imagining their descendants,
5,000 years later. They likely knew people would doubt their very
Generations Between existences. and tried to provide the future generations with
the necessary information to authenticate their stories.
Despite the probability that the way time being measured would
Adam, Noah, & Abraham change significantly, these ancient people provided a comprehensive
record of their live, records that provide great insight into the reality
of their presence.
What better way to communicate to future generation than with an exact count of the years of life, plus the years before parenthood,
to give us an exact year-based history of generations?
Despite these amazing records, we don’t actually know the exact year Adam was created. This birth chart was back-engineered, starting
with the birth date of Abraham, which is less debated (but only slightly less!).

FAMILY TREE Luke Genealogy, Adam to Jesus
This genealogy, found in Luke 3, differs from the one in Matthew in several ways. First, it extends all the way back to Adam, whereas
Matthew’s stops at Abraham. (This one contains an additional 2,000 years.) Second, the Matthew genealogy appears to be the LEGAL
genealogy of Jesus, whereas Luke’s is likely BLOODLINE. In ancient times, the legal custody of children was often rearranged due
to the regular occurrence of early parent deaths—women in childbirth, men in accidents, and both in illness. Hence children were legally
transferred to others according to Levitical law to create a legal line like the one in Matthew, whereas this contained birth parents.

JUDGES OF ISRAEL (1350-1050 BC)
The judges ruled Israel from the end of Joshua’s conquests until the time when people asked for a king. God retained the office of king for
himself, but had ultimately established the judges to lead the nation of Israel. Judges were encouraged to obtain wisdom from God Himself,
judge righteously, and help the people find favor with God. As is common with human nature, however, some judges were good while others
were horrific.

Kings of Israel & Judah after the Split (951-585 BC)
In 951 BC, the Israelite kingdom split over a situation we are all familiar with to this day—taxes! When King Rehoboam raised King
Solomon’s already-high taxes, some of the tribes rebelled dividing the kingdom. The tribes of Benjamin and Judah stayed with
Rehoboam and became the Kingdom of Judah, also known as the Southern Kingdom. The other 10 tribes departed and established their
own king Jeroboam, and became known as the Northern Kingdom. This graph represents the kings of Israel and Judah during this
period between the split and the Babylonian Exile (951-585) BC.

MINOR PROPHETS (700–450 BC)
The Old Testament contains writings from 12 minor prophets and four major prophets. They wrote from the 8th through the 4th centuries
BC. Their backgrounds are an intriguing part of Jewish history that every Christian should know. However, it’s also important to know
at a glance what each was known for and how they differ. Below are one or two lines about each of the 12 minor prophets that make them
special and help distinguish them from the others.

Minor Prophets

1 750-710 BC Hosea Hosea was told by God to marry a woman who was an unfaithful prostitute, so that he could see what it was like for
God to be “married” to the nation of Israel. Hosea prophesied around the same time as Isaiah.

2 Uncertain Joel Joel prophesied in length about the “Day of the Lord,” which can be a name for the Second Coming of Christ.
Therefore, some of his prophecies seem futuristic, though the term can also mean any day God serves justice.
The Apostle Peter quoted him in his first sermon at Pentecost, Acts 2:16-17.

3 750 BC Amos Amos was a shepherd, which was unusual as most prophets did not have any other occupation. Amos predicted the
overthrow of the Kingdom of Israel by the Assyrians, which happened in 722 BC, forty years after his prophecy.

4 Uncertain Obadiah Obadiah wrote the shortest book in the Old Testament. It is an exclusive prophecy warning the nation of Edom.
We don’t know more about him specifically, because 12 different Obadiahs are mentioned in the Bible.

5 750 BC Jonah Jonah is famous for being swallowed by the great fish after refusing to preach repentance to Nineveh. When he
finally went to Nineveh and preached, the people did repent.

6 735-710 BC Micah Micah prophesied early, foretelling the Assyrian invasion of the northern Kingdom of Israel. It came to pass between
10 and 15 years later, in 722 BC.

7 650 BC Nahum Nahum prophesied exclusively about another nation Nineveh. This was about 150 years after Jonah’s traveled there.
This time however, Nineveh refused to repent after invading Israel and wreaking havoc.

8 615-605 BC Habakkuk Habakkuk uttered heartfelt prayers to God in this book, consisting of only three chapters. The prophecies were
God’s responses, specifically about the coming invasion of Babylon upon Judah.

9 635-625 BC Zephaniah Zephaniah is most famous for his many uses of the term “Day of the Lord” in a book that is only three chapters
long. His prophecies can apply to many eras, including our future and the end times.

10 526 BC Haggai Haggai is best known for being the only Old Testament prophet that Israel listened to. He prophesied after the
Babylonian exile had ended and people were striving, often unsuccessfully, to rebuild Solomon’s temple.

11 520 BC Zechariah Zechariah is most famous for his two predictions, one of Christ coming to Jerusalem on a donkey (9:9) and Judas
betraying him for 30 pieces of silver (11:13-15). He spoke much about the coming Messiah.

12 433-424 BC Malachi Malachi is most famous for ending his five-chapter book with a prediction that John the Baptist would have
the spirit of Elijah, a passage misinterpreted by the Jews.

12
MAJOR PROPHETS (700-550 BC)
Four major prophets wrote five books of prophecy, as Jeremiah wrote two books: The Book of Jeremiah
and the Lamentations of Jeremiah. To Christian scholars, the status of major prophet only means that prophet
was more prolific, writing in more detail about more events.

Major Prophets

Isaiah prophesied early but spoke of both the Assyrian invasion of Israel
and the Babylonian invasion of Judah 200 years later. He is most known for
1 700-680 BC Isaiah
prophecies about the Messiah and their extraordinary harmony with the life
of Jesus.

Jeremiah prophesied from about 40 years before the Babylonian invasion


to the time that it actually occurred. He is one of the few Bible prophets
2 585-570 BC Jeremiah
that lived to see his prophecies come true. He is called the lamenting
prophet because his words captured God’s angry and sad sides.

Ezekiel is most famous for his prophecies known as Ezekiel’s Wheel,


which some believe bear a remarkable resemblance to a UFO. However,
3 590-570 BC Ezekiel
Ezekiel also wrote of the restoration of Israel in 1948 and gave other
end-times prophesies.

Daniel is most famous for his stories about Daniel in the lions’ den
and Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the fiery furnace. But his
4 536-530 BC Daniel
end-times prophecies are equally intriguing. He introduced numbers such
as those according “time, times and half a time.”

The I AM Statements of CHRIST
The seven I AM statements of Christ are singular to the Book of John. John was most interested in making clear the identity
of Christ, and these statements help us to understand Christ’s divinity. There is an eighth I AM statement that doesn’t necessarily
fit within the same context as the seven. Hence it is herein called the BONUS I AM STATEMENT.

The Seven I AM Statements:

1 John 6:35 I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry,
and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.

2 John 8:12 I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. Whoever follows me will never walk
in darkness, but will have the light of life.

3 John 10:8-9 I AM THE GATE FOR THE SHEEP. All who have come before me are
thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them.
I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved.
They will come in and go out, and find pasture.

4 John 10:11-12 I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD. The good shepherd lays down his life
for the sheep.

5 John 11:25-26 I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE. The one who believes
in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing
in me will never die.

6 John 14:6-7 I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE. No one comes
to the Father except through me.

7 John 15:1-2 I AM THE TRUE VINE, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every
branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear
fruit, he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.

Bonus I AM statement:

8 John 8:58 Before Abraham was, I AM.

THE TIMES JESUS GOT ANGRY (AND AT WHOM)
The times that Jesus was angry can be very telling. What aroused His anger in the Gospels is likely still problematic today. Below are most of the times
Christ showed anger as recorded in the Gospels. We may want to ask ourselves what this can tell us about where we need to focus our spiritual growth?

JESUS’ 12 DISCIPLES THEIR LIVES & DEATHS
The 12 disciples brought the Word of God and teachings of the Holy Spirit throughout the known world after Christ returned to heaven.
However, most people know very little about their lives after the Ascension. This list gives basic information about these special men.
Although the order of their calling is unclear after Matthew/Levi, the complete list in Luke 6:12-16 is assumed to provide the order.
