--- Quote ---Do the scriptures say that any of these people Ray mentioned, as being alive at the same time?

I thinks Ray used a timeline that does indicate that there was people's lives that overlapped. So this would make it possible for this "book" to only have to change hands a few times.
In a Bible study a few months back Ray gave a short timeline of important Biblical dates. I will try to reproduce that here.
DATES TO REMEMBER
Things make a lot more sense if we can put them into some sort of a frame of reference.

I don't see the part where early humans migrated to such lands as the Americas and Australia. Had to have happened after the confusion of languages at Babel. Scientific evidence shows that this migration must have happened way more than 4000 years ago. I'm not talking about man like creatures here. I'm talking about the real thing.
By the way, they just found what scientists believe to be a 4000 year old temple in Peru.
Perhaps, there are some very wide gaps in the early geneologies.

Just trying to keep it light here...hehehehe.... ;D
1-- God only had to TELL Noah how to build that magnificient ark
2-- but God had to WRITE down the 10 Commandments for Moses
Noah's SAT scores were definitely higher!
joyce ;D
gmik:
What I don't get is there were cities already going on whilst Adam & Eve still in the Garden. Were they not talking and keeping records etc etc.
When Cain went to the city, did they all already know him, or did he start telling people about his mom and dad????
Who were these people??? Don't tell me they were all kids of Adam & Eve. Were they??
good one joyce! :D
musicman:
Some of them had to be grand kids, great grand kids, etc. Betcha Cain had some kids mixed in there to.

The life span in the days of Adam, was much longer than ours of today. Imagine living for a thousand years or more and only having two children ;D
