Primary 105-Year Age of Seth Legend

Genesis 5:6
"And Seth lived an hundred and five years, and begat Enos:"

The primary 105-year age of Seth completes the 365-year calendar pattern.  Seth (Seti) was 105 years old at the time of fathering Enos, the next "begat" descendant of Adam.  Figure 1 (Primary_Ages_of_Adam_and_Seth-gr.htm) shows that 365-day-solar-years numerically match 365-year-solar-cycles.  Seth's 105-year primary age numerically matches with 105 days in a 365-day long year.

The 100-years of difference between a 260-year-sacred-cycle and a 360-year period imply that 105-years in the primary age of Seth parallels a related number of days.  Seth's primary age of 100-years, plus five-years, emphasizes association of days and years in a single numerical term and connects the two time intervals in the extreme past.  "And all the days of .... were .... years" excerpts agreement between archaic Jewish and Egyptian calendars.  Jewish calendar years for the Antediluvian Patriarchs associate by numerical content days and years with Egyptian Sothic Cycle patterns.

The personified Seth of the Bible illustrates certain elements of an Egyptian mythological deity.  Seth ties the primary age of the Patriarchs listed to Sothic Calendar dating as the founder of lunar/solar time keeping methods.  The Abydos triad consisted of Osirus, his sister and consort goddess Isis and their son Horus.  Seth was the brother of the fertility god, Osiris.  Much of the known mythology survives from papyrus texts following Pre-Dynastic Egypt, which ends about 3,100 B.C.E.  Chronographers rely upon significant cross-references for Old Testament dating.  Mesoamerican calendars superimpose patterns over the ancient legend.


The Seth of Egyptian lore murdered Osirus.  A bitter rivalry ensued between Seth and Horus over inheritance.  Seth fought to control his birthright Upper Egypt of the Old Kingdom.  Horus was the first-born son of Osirus and claimed to be the heir apparent.  Horus, often identified with king Menes, ultimately defeated Seth and united Upper and Lower Egypt.  Some versions of the story say that Horus avenged his father’s death by killing Seth.  Seth and Horus finally reconcile in other versions.  Semitic Baal weighs against Seth for Egyptians and his female counterpart, Nephthys is a variant of the goddess, Astarte or Astaroth.  Osiris becomes a god who presides in judgment before sin confessions of the dead.  Horus rules as a benevolent god for the living.

The rightful heir of the first-born son and the brotherly conflict are pieces of the scripture calendar puzzle.  Osirus is the son of earth-god Geb and the sky-goddess Nut.  Egyptian mythology resurrects Osirus from 14 parts to teach agricultural skills.  Nut has a lover named Thoth.  In a game, Thoth wins 1/72 of the moon every day from her.  Thoth combines the 72-lunar-parts into 5-days and adds them to the original Egyptian calendar of 360-days.

Nighttime, underworld relationships of Osirus with the moon is indisputable.  Measuring 14-lunar-parts in two weeks reveals returning lunar visibility.  Osirus returns to hear cries from the underworld once again.  Lunar months measure the growing and harvest times of the year.  Mesoamerican calendars reiterate Thoth’s lunar collections.  Both Egyptian and Mayan Calendars commonly include 5-special-days of feasting.  The 52-year Calendar Round consists of 73-sacred-years.  One final sacred-year results after 72-sacred-years from the difference between 365-day-Haab-years and 360-day-Tun-years.

The 360-day midpoint length of year was a standard that fell midway between a 12-month-lunar-year and the 365-day-solar-year.  Five special feast days add to a 360-day length of year.  The primary age of Seth is 100-years with 5-years extra that bear special place-value significance.  Seth’s primary age adds 100-years to a 260-year sacred cycle in order to achieve the 360-year midpoint length of year.  Five special years add to complete the 365-year combination that includes both primary ages of Adam and Seth.  According to Eidemann's Commentary on the Bible, we note mention taken from the Exegesis that written information was literally on the columns of Seth.

Pyramids depicted in related figures show the all-seeing eye associated with Osirus and the 1,461-year Sothic Cycle.  The eye is similar to the eye appearing on the back of a United States one-dollar bill.  Our founding fathers realized the significance of Egyptian mythology.  Changes to the older Roman Julian Calendar in 1,582 A.D. to the Gregorian Calendar left colonists with mixed religious feelings.  Hence, Constitutional directives called for the freedom of religion and the separation of church and state.  Any changes to the 365-day-solar-year calendar can reverberate through time for literally hundreds of years.

The above example shows the gravity of profound calendar change.  Historians usually indicate the Sothic Cycle lasting 1,460-years.  According to Wikipedia today, compelling evidence moves the 1,461 Sothic Cycle dating forward to 2,781 B.C.E.  Note the entire Sothic Cycle difference here modifies earlier work and moreover, increments the Sothic Cycle from 1,460-years to 1,461-years.  The adjusted example is corrected history as opposed to revisionist history.  Advancements cite the Sothic Cycle to extend 1,461-years.  A 364-day-year seems odd for people so advanced.  The reason behind listing 364-days as opposed to 365-days for a solar year is the simple 1-day to 1-year concept of numerical matching.  After King Djoser in the third dynasty, Egyptologists are sure 5-special-days were included following the 360-day midpoint, or Tun-year, of the Mesoamerican calendars.  The Mayan calendar provides background l/s calendar information to aid our study.  Lunar/separation times are crucial to the ancient past.
