Genesis chapter 11, the geneology

After reading chapter 11:

Now we will attempt to tackle the geneology. Births and deaths will be organized in chronological order to the best of my ability. Notice the numbers go backward because we are working our way to the year zero.

2349 B.C.E. - Flood ends. Noah is 501
2346 - Shem is 100, Arphaxad is born
2311 - Arphaxad is 35, Shela is born
2281 - Shela is 30, Eber is born
2247- Eber is 34, Peleg is born
2217 - Peleg is 30, Reu is born
2185 - Reu is 32, Serug is born
2155 - Serug is 30, Nahor is born
2126- Nahor is 29, Terah is born
2056- Terah is 70, Abram is born
2008 - Peleg dies
2007 - Nahor dies
2000 - Noah dies, Abram is 56
1978 - Reu dies
1955 - Serug dies
1921 - Terah dies, Abram is 135
1908 - Arphaxad dies
1878 - Shela dies
1846 - Shem dies
1817 - Eber dies

There are ten generations listed from Noah to Abrram just as there were ten generations listed from Adam to Noah earlier in Genesis. As the years go by life span declines. Notice that all Abram's linear ancestors, from Noah on down, are still alive when he is born. Later, we will see that Abram dies at the age of 175 in 1880 B.C.E., while Shela, Shem and Eber are still alive. Fascinating! Incredible!

At the end of the chapter we learn that Terah had three boys, Abram, Nahor, and Haran. Haran dies. Nahor marries his niece, Haran's daughter. Lot is Haran's child as well.
