The period Noah took to build the Ark is not 120 years?


01_Did you know?
Noah was 500 years old, and then became the father of three sons. (Gen 5:32, 11:10)

02_Command

Now, the time he received the command to build the ark was after his three sons were married. (Gen 6:18)

03_Three sons
Noah became the father to Shem when he was 502 years old.(Gen 7:13) Supposing that the three sons were all born to him in 6 years, and all three sons were married by 15 years of age at the earlist. It must be that the construction of the ark began on or around when Noah was 520 to 530 years old.

04_Flood
Then the flood came upon when Noah was 600 years old. (Gen 7:6, 11)

05_70 years at the most
Therefore, since the period of Noah's ark construction was approximately 70 years at the most. The view of 120 years does not agree with the Bible.
