On the basis of *what* revelations? There doesn't seem to be a clear
textual interpretation of Genesis 1-11, at least I haven't seen any, and
barring that, what other evidence should one use to ascertain the physical
history of Earth and Cosmos save the physical record that God allowed to
be left behind for us to study?

BTW, your numerology doesn't give me any clearer interpretation of
Genesis, but maybe I'm not seeing something? Perhaps you will show me
something that will force me to abandon all the physical, astronomical,
biological, and geological evidence?

God's Peace,

Roger
