How old was Moses when he died?

Question

Moses from the bible, of course!

Answer 1

120.

That's why Jews wish each other "Till 120."

Answer 2

MOSES AGE 80 TO 120 WITH PROMISED LAND HEIRS

Exo.6:16-23,26;
Abraham Gen.12:4; age 75, at 427 years after flood gets Promised Land covenant and Isaac has Jacob, #1. Levi, Kohath, Amram, #4. Aaron 1Chr.6:1-15 of Priestline, and Moses of Prophet Judges. Gen.1:13,16 [ At generation four ];
Exo.7:7 [ Moses is age 80 years ];
Exo.12:40,41 [ 430 years ];
Gal.3:16-18 [ 430 years after Promised Land covenant, they get the law ];
Num.33:38,39; Aaron was age 83 at Exo.7:7; dies age 123 in 40th year.
Deut.34:7; Moses age 120 dies in 40th year. 897 years after the flood.

Answer 3

It is hard to say, as the concept of a year is fairly new. Mankind, until recently(given the age of this planet, and its people) didn't know the earth went around the sun. We didn't know that it took 365.25 days to do so. Therefore, the modern version of the year is a "new" concept. At this point, you would have to trust the writings of those times.

Interesting note, especially when people talk about living for 700 years, or so. If you take the lunar cycle, at about a month, 720 months would be 60 years. So, possibly, someone who lived 700 years in ancient times, may very well have lived well into his late 50's.

i don't think this is a theory, but something I either heard or thought of many years ago.
