I just saw a question where a guy says: "And our lives got limited to 120 after the flood". How very accurate! I just saw the other day a woman who lived till 123. If this is a divine thing, then it should either be always true (No one can live more than 120), or to give another VERY exact number!

--Mom: It's:
Gensis 6:3 "And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years."

It's obvious it's indicating that man's flesh can't handle to liver over 120.

Read your Bible! The 120 years was the length of time Noah took to build the ark it has nothing to do with anyones life span. According to David a mans life is approximately 70 years.
Genesis 6:3 Then the LORD said, "My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, because he also is flesh; nevertheless his days shall be one hundred and twenty years."

Why would you want to stay here that long, are you forgetting that the months have been changed since then. The years were calculated differently. We are hearing more and more about people who live beyond 100 years but I think this is just because of how small the world has gotten since television media, sattelites etc. They were always there. How wise they must be to have lived and experienced so much, the wiser you get the more you realize you don't know anything.

The average life expectancy in those times was about thirty. It's only in the last century that life expectancy rose into the eighties. That's do to wonder drugs and surgical science.
