What Does the Bible Say About...A Life Span ?

My friend who is 73 commented she has lived longer then God had promised us.She states that in psalms some where it says 70 ad that after that you can pray for more years and if you have obeyed and lived a righteous life you can ask for more years. I know we are not promised our next breath and no one really knows how many years we have, yet I was thinking God said 120 years in Gen6:3. Who is right?


Answer

In a way you are both right. Genesis 6:3 says, “And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.” Psalm 90:10 says, “The days of our years are threescore years and ten [70 years]; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years [80 years], yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.”

Before the passage in Genesis we find people who lived hundreds of years. After that time life spans went down to about 120 years. By the time the Psalms were written, the average life span was considerably less than 70 years, with that number being considered a good old age. Of course, that was about 3000 years ago. Increases in medical and nutritional knowledge have allowed us to live to a life expectancy of about what the Psalm says, with an upper limit well under the 120 years of Genesis.

Does that make the Bible wrong? Not at all! For the times when those passages were written, the life expectancy given was a good figure. For this time the 120 year figure is quite high, but the 70 to 80 year figure may be low. If David were writing the psalm now, he might raise the figure a little.

We should just praise God that he has given us the knowledge to live longer than previous generations. As you point out, though, we should also be aware that not everyone will live to the life expectancy figures anyone may give. We should be ready and eager to meet God at any time.

Note: For a different, and possibly more correct, perspective on the Genesis 6 passage, see my answer at What Does the Bible Say About..120 Years?

What Does the Bible Say About...Life Span?

The bible says that no one will live longer than 120 years, but the world record for oldest person alive so far is 125. Is that verse meant to be taken literally or what?


Answer

The verse that mentions 120 years is Genesis 6:3. “And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.” This passage is part of the introduction to the story of Noah and the ark. If you read the context of the passage it becomes clear that he is not saying that he is putting a 120 year limit on people’s lifespans. What he is saying is that he will destroy all of mankind in 120 years. A few verses later it adds that Noah found favor in God’s eyes, and so not all were destroyed. That passage about 120 years is, therefore, simply saying how long there would be before the flood.

The only passage that gives a lifespan is in the Psalms, and it even says that one could live beyond 70 years in some circumstances. It doesn’t put an absolute top limit but an average.

I think our curses have made him more stronger.. This Old Bastard survives on curses.. The more we curse him, the longer he'll live.. :eek: Rather than cursing him, I think from now on we should wish him well and say ' Long Live The Emperor ' every morning.. Maybe he'll up the lorry faster that way..

Yeah. May he also live long enough to attend Lee Hsien Loong's funeral.
And his grandchildren's funerals.
