Modern science really doesn't have a secure definition on Time. So what is time? Maybe no one knows.
But the effects of time on documentation. As in how many times and places was the Christian (version what?) bible changed, amended, and the big one, translated? Heck a lot can happen in several thousand years, I mean many can't remember events from several days ago, (exclude politicians as they have made this behavior and art form and a science), so whenever a Christian bible was copied, changed, enhanced and translated, all manner of meaning can be changed or lost in translation, as is said for much history.
I get many of the incongruencies in the piece here as probably many do, but a document translated many times over the centuries and interpreted during previous times, well, the Christian bible could literally mean anything, including being wildly divergent from past histories. As modern day archeologist and historians work on, let's hope we get a better enabled focus on antiquity.
