Dr. Floyd Nolen Jones, accomplished scientist and theologian, offers sound answers to all of the difficult chronology questions about the Old Testament history of the Jews. In Chronology of the Old Testament, Jones delivers a Bible study resource, which decisively tests and proves the Bible's reliability and trustworthiness.

Dig deep into ancient history to answer so called Bible contradictions.

With this biblical timeline dating from Creation through the Resurrection of Christ, you will:

  • Discover substantiated evidence of the date of Creation and age of the earth
  • Uncover archaeological evidence of Egyptian, Assyrian and other ancient super powers to authenticate the truths of the Biblical timeline
  • Test the academic and biblical formula used to synchronize the often debated timeline of the divided kingdoms of Judah and Israel
  • Explain the 483 year Bible prophecy of Daniel 9:25
  • Support and update findings in James Ussher's Annals of the World - a survey of ancient world history
  • Defend with historical accuracy the infallibility of the Holy Bible.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This is a monumental work...It is the greatest of its kind in our age, and stands true to the Holy Word. You have used to great advantage your specialized training in geophysics to give the best presentation of biblical chronology and the associated history of anything that I have seen. Your charts really help in tying together the divided kingdom history and many other portions of the Bible that are difficult to follow. It is particularly helpful to those of us who believe in the infallibility of the Scriptures but are not knowledgeable enough to support it as you have. I greatly admire your work." --Dr. Thomas G. Barnes, first president of Creation Research Society

"I'm working now on the historical books for the BE series, and your Chronology of the Old Testament sits at my right hand...It is invaluable. I have several other chronologies...but your charts are the most helpful and the supporting evidence is the most sensible...You amaze me with your scholarly accomplishments." --Dr. Warren Wiersbe, author and former pastor of Moody Church, Chicago

"I do appreciate...your marvelous work on the chronology of the Old Testament, as well as all you stand for as both a scientist and a theologian...I will be happy to recommend it...I am thankful that the Lord raised you up to do this kind of work...it is wonderful to have a friend like you." --Dr. Henry M. Morris, Ph. D.

Anything by Floyd Nolan Jones is pure gold. A true scholar, and this is perhaps his greatest masterpiece. I use the charts whenever I’m studying the Old Testament. They are now on his website that has much of his materials. But the actual charts spread out on a table are easier. If you are into history, archaeology etc, this is an amazing tool to shed light on all those secular historians AND those within Christendom who doubt the plain text of the Bible. Interesting, too, how Jones makes his case and proves it every time. Yo won’t regret getting this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Think about how to view the charts before reading...
Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2007
Verified Purchase
The Chronology of the Old Testament by Floyd Jones is true to God's pure and preserved Word, the authorized version (King James Version) of the Bible. It is difficult to trust other chronologies that do not start with the solid foundation that God has given us a Bible with no mistakes or errors. This reason alone was all I needed. What's more, the book is very thorough and easy for me to read and wrap my head around some of the more difficult concepts of Biblical Chronology.

Before you buy though, consider thinking through the following... The software to view the charts is included on a CD fixed to the inside back cover. However, the author and I highly recommend being able to look at the charts as you read through the book. There are at least three options that I am aware of for viewing the charts.

1) Read the book next to your desktop/laptop computer. Since I like do my reading on the sofa without a computer, this does not work for me.

2) Print the charts using the above software. Being in a time crunch and for several other reasons, I chose this option. Based on experience, printing the charts is no easy task. For instance, Chart 5 measures ten inches by ten feet. Yes, that was ten feet (as in 120 inches). Unless you have a really long piece of paper, you will use up about 25 8-1/2 x 11 letter-sized sheets of paper. The good news is that printing the wall-sized charts can be done with the included software. Simply zoom in, print, pan right, print, pan right, print, etc. I then used a paper trimmer to match the right side of the current page with the left side of the next page. I then proceeded to use an entire roll of clear scotch tape to join the pages together. Place the tape across the front of the first joint and across the back of the second joint alternating until all sheets are combined. Upon completion, I ended up with a foldable frugal full-sized chart.

3) Buy full-size prints of the charts. The charts are $39.95 (US) plus shipping and handling. They are available from the Digital Vault at A&E - The Graphics Complex. They can be contacted in any of the following ways:

Telephone: 713-579-1234

Toll Free: 888-621-0022 (ask for the Digital Vault)

E-Mail: vault@aecomplex.com

Mail: Attn: Digital Vault

Reference "Floyd Jones Charts" when ordering. Each chart is printed on 11" wide, bright white 20# bond, folded at 8-1/2" intervals so that each chart folds and stacks to a size no larger than 8-1/2 x 11".

5.0 out of 5 stars Every Christian Needs This Book
Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2010

I purchased the first version of this book several years ago after reading one of Dr. Jones' other books "Which Version is the Bible?". Dr. Jones is a careful thinker and his works have been very useful in my studies. I recently wanted to get my pastor a great book and when I saw that there was an updated version of this work, I ordered two (one for myself). This book has helped me better understand some simple and yet often incorrectly taught subjects.

One of the first notable items was incorrectly believing that Jacob waited (as apposed to just serving) 7 extra years before marrying Rachel. I had heard this sermon/teaching many times over the years. Using chronology, Dr. Jones explains away this myth and shows how such a belief makes the ages of his children unreasonably young during the events of their lives.

Additionally, my wife and I were watching a nativity movie this past December and started to discuss when it was the Wise Men came to see Jesus. She had heard (a popular) teaching stating that it was roughly 2 years after His birth and I thought otherwise. The answer was fairly simple (not two years later) but it isn't hard to see why people can get the wrong ideas when checking other resources. The "Holman Book of Biblical Charts, Maps and..." incorrectly shows the presentation of Jesus in the Temple before visit of the Wise Men (supposedly 2 years later).

Dr. Jones again breaks it down and shows how The family was visited by the Wise Men, went to Egypt (during which Herod dies) and returned to the Temple in time (less then 40 days) to present Jesus in the Temple after Mary's days of purification were complete. After that, they returned to their home in Nazareth and not Bethlehem where Joseph was warned to flee to Egypt.

There is obviously more detail to the above examples but hopefully you the reader get the idea that this book is very much worth your while if you want to understand and most importantly BELIEVE everything you read in your Bible.

About 25 years ago, I self-published a book called The 6,000 Year Earth. (http://independencebaptist.org/6,000%20Year%20Earth/6,000_Year_Earth.htm) At the time, Ussher's book on the Annals of the World had not been published and I had never heard of the Chronology of the Old Testament by Floyd N. Jones. I recently purchased a copy of the Chronology of the Old Testament, and as I have studied his writings, I am amazed at the detail included in Mr. Jones work, as he covers many things I had never thought of. I am very thankful for his writing and understand fully how the book took twelve years to complete. I look forward to reading and learning more about the various topics covered in the book. There is no doubt in my mind that during the 1,000 year reign of Christ on this earth, and in heaven, all believers will be astonished at God's great creation, and we will worship him, who made it all.

5.0 out of 5 stars A valuable resource!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 4, 2013
Verified Purchase
I have owned this book for nearly three years and it continues to yield its treasure.

Using the biblical record, the author places people and events within their time frame and in their proper sequence while addressing the challenges (for example, the theory of evolution) to the chronological framework of the Bible. Dr Floyd Jones in the opening title, 'Establishing the Correct Foundation', discusses the two key world views and their effect on biblical chronology.

A CD included with 'Chronology of the Old Testament), contains the six charts that are discussed comprehensively in the book. Discussions include: The date of creation; David's age at his slaying of Goliath and Daniel's 483 year prophecy specifying the time of the Saviour's birth, ministry and crucifixion. Over fifty illustrations and diagrams (for example: The Kings of Israel; Job's chronology; and Returning exiles listings comparison in Ezra and Nehemiah) offer further clarification and insight.

This is a scholarly and fascinating piece of research establishing the total accuracy, truth and historical authenticity of the Bible. Highly recommended.
