Bible scholars have also estimated the age of the earth based on the Creation account in Genesis and the genealogical accounts in Numbers and other books of the Pentateuch. One famous estimate was published in 1650 by R. B. Knox, James Ussher Archbishop of Armagh (usually referred to as Archbishop Ussher) in a book called ''Annals of the World,'' in which he estimated the Creation to have occurred in 4004 B.C.

Other Biblical scholars maintain that there are possible gaps in the genealogies, often deferring to the 19th century Calvinist theologian Benjamin Warfield on the issue. <ref>http://www.reasons.org/resources/apologetics/primeval_chronology.shtml</ref>
