I-XIII. 4.- THE CONTENTS. - BOOK 11. CHAP. I. OF the time of the birth of Abraham and of the use of this question for the ordering of the story of the Assyrian empire. Sect. I. Of some of the sllccessors of Selnirainis vit, h a brief transition to the questio a, bout the tiiue of the birth of Abraham. P. I Sect. 11. A proposal of reasons or argrl nents, that are brought to prove Abraham was born in the year 292 after the flood, and r. ot in the year 352. 3 Sect. 111. The answer to one of the objections proposed, shewing that Abraham made but one journey out of Rfesopotainia into Canaan and it after his fathers death. 4 Sect. IV. The ans r7er to another of the objections proposed, shewing that it was not r nlikely that Terah should beget Abrahan in his 130th year. I I Sect. V. The answer to two more of the objections shewing that we nlay have certainty of Abrahams age from the scripture, though we make not Abrahan the eldest son and that there was great cause, why in the story of Abrahanl his two brethren shoi ldb e respected. T 2 Sect. V1. That the nnining of Abral aln first of the three brethren, Gen. xi. 26. doth not prove that he was the eldest together with divers reasons proving that Abralianl was not the eldest son of Terah. 14 Sect. VII. A conclusion of this dispute, noting the authors on both sides with an admonition that they which shorten the times make all ancient stories the more unprobable. J9 - Sect. VIII. A con putation of the times of the Assyrians, and others, grounded upon the times notedin the story of Abraham. 22 Sect. IX.

S I I . Thnt Chedorlnonler, the chief of the four kings, was not of Assyria, but of Iersia and that the Assyrian empire at this ti111e was much impaired. 29 Sect. XIII. That it is not improbable that the four kings had no dominion in the countries named, but that they had elsewhere with their colonies planted themselves, and so retained the narnes of the countries whence they came which if it be so, we need not say that Amraphel was Ninins, nor trouble ourselves with many other difficulties. 32 CHAP. II. Of the kings of Egypt from the first peopling of it after the flood, to the time of the delivery of the Israelites from thence. Sect. I. A brief of the names and times of the first kings of Egypt with a note of the causes of difficulty in resolving of the truth in these points. 36 Sect. 11. rhat by the account of the Egyptian dynasties, and otherwise, it appears that Chains reign in Egypt began in the year after the flood I g I. 3s Sect. 111. That these dynasties were not divers families of kings, but rather successions of regents, ofttimes many under one . king. 40 Sect. IV. Of Chan a, nd his son afizraim, or Osiris. 43 Sect. V.
