Many families, particularly royal or noble ones, have kept detailed chronologies for generations. And some of these genealogies go all the way back to one man—and you might recognize his name—Noah! That’s right. Just as the Bible connects everyone back to Noah, so do many secular sources!
There’re also places around the world with ancient names like Mizraim and Canaan. You might not recognize those names, but if you go to Genesis chapter eleven, you’ll find them in Noah’s genealogy. It appears that places, particularly in the Middle East, were named after Noah’s grandsons!
This only makes sense if the Bible’s history is true—and it is!
