Together With Chronological Tables at the End of each Age, in which The Lives of the Patriarchs after the Deluge, the Reigns of the Rulers and Kings of the Children of Israel and Juda, are parallel'd (and agree exactly) with those of the Assirian, Babylonian, Persian, Grecian Kings and Roman Emperors: By means whereof all the Objections and Cavils of our Modern Libertins, Deists, Atheists and Pre-Adamites, Who grounding their Arguments and Reasonings upon the Computation of the present Hebrew Text, make the First Kings of the Assirian, Babylonian and Egyptian Monarchies to have Reign'd some Hundreds of Years before the Deluge, are clearly Consuted.
