NOTE: I DID NOT VERIFY THE INFORMATION - THIS IS SOLELY FOR MY CURIOSITY's SAKE IN MY CHAT WITH GROK 3 (by xAI) - YOU DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH AND IF USING AN AI BE AWARE THEY CAN AND DO MAKE MISTAKES!!! Here's a compiled comparison of biblical chronologies from: Masoretic (MT) using the KJV, as Bishop Ussher believed, so starting from his creation year of 4004 BC (not the same as mine, which is 3982 BC) as compared to the Septuagint (LXX) and the Samaritan Pentateuch (SP). I wanted them all here on my own page for future reference. As far as I know, this is accurate but if you find errors ... blame Grok (link below) ;o}
