... A few years later I led the archaeological expedition to Kuntillet Ajrud on behalf of Tel Aviv University (Institutes of Archaeology, and of Nature Conservation Research); the Israel Department of Antiquity; the Department for Holy-Land Studies in the Kibbutz Movement, and the Israel Exploration Society. The top of the hill comprising the site is an oblong plateau extending east-west, with the ruins located at its western end. Wells in the vicinity—in use even today—gave the site its ancient importance.

303: Terah's begetting age of Abram: Terah was 130 not 70 years old ...
Because of a sloppy reading of Genesis 11:26, most people wrongly believe that Terah was 70 when Abraham was born. Historically, the Jews living from 300 BC down to 70 AD generally all misinterpreted the age to be 70 years old. In spite of Acts 7:4, several ancient Christian sources also got it wrong. Presently among modern Rabbinical Jews, it is universally believed that his age was 70. Since Abraham left Haran at 75, that would mean that Terah lived another 60 years afterwards. In fact, Abraham left Haran the same year his father died at age 205, when ... Ten people who had their blessing stolen: Able, Shem, Abram, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Perez, Rachel, Shimri, Christians 3.

306: Methuselah's begetting Age of Lamech was 187 not 167 years
"The simplest and most plausible explanation for the erroneous 167 reading in some manuscripts of LXX [Codex Alexandrinus: A] Genesis 5:25 is that it was the accident of a scribe near the beginning of the Septuagint's transmissional process. A basic text-critical reconstruction affirms this claim. Our earliest witness to LXX Genesis 5:25 is the chronology of Demetrius (who lived in Egypt less than 70 years after the original Greek translation), which confirms 187 as the LXX's original begetting age. ... There are only two viable choices: either (1) the third-century BC Alexandrian Jews inflated the numbers during their translation of the Pentateuch into Greek, or (2) the second-century AD rabbinic Jews deflated the numbers in the few remaining Hebrew manuscripts that survived the Roman devastations of ca. 70 and 135 AD. There is no textual or external historical evidence from antiquity to support the LXX inflation hypothesis. However, evidence abounds that the rabbis in Israel (living in ... ...
