Events

Biblical events are often recounted in chronological order, but it is important to note that the Bible does not contain a complete or fixed chronology.
Since the 19th century, biblical exegesis has shown that the numbers mentioned in Scripture sometimes have a symbolic meaning, and that the intention of the writers was not to provide historical indications.
The Bible claims to have been written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and the 40 or so sacred writers wrote dates and chronological data that were inspired by God. However, the Bible contains incomplete or insufficient chronological data to form a revealed and certain chronology.
