Except I'm aware of the additional difficulties introduced with attempting to move the timeline a full millennium. It just doesn't work.


You mean you don't want it to work!


It's doesn't matter what I want, but if you try to make the 2400BCE time line work for Jericho, you have to consider how that would affect the other aspect of the Joshua timeline. Attempting to force this once piece doesn't create a cohesive puzzle.




AS,

Are you referring to the timeline issue brought forth by Katherine Kenyon's work?

In what part?

Kenyon puts the timeline 150 years before the consensus understanding of the Biblical account, and new C-14 testing corroborated her findings (see Mojo's story and link above). At the end of Mojo's post there was a throw away line that a Biblical scholar proposed an even earlier timeline of 2400BCE to make it work, and that's what I was discarding above with Ringman.

You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.
