After Noah,  because of the "Great Flood"
of the precession of the equinoxes
- which moved the "Ark" of "Heaven" -
the old Patriarchs "passed away" and the stars were named anew.

SHEM

SHEM - Biblical age, 600
From the star Arcturus, SHEM,
twice around to Aldebaran and the Hyades is 600 days.
Arcturus and Aldebaran (with the Hyades) are node stars.
The star Aldebaran and the Hyades rising
are the node stars to the star
Arcturus rising.
The birth of Arphaxad is 100 years after the birth of Shem.
From the rising of the star Arcturus, Shem
to the right upper corner star of the Great Square,
ARPHAXAD,  is 100 days.

ARPHAXAD

ARPHAXAD - Biblical age, 438.
From the setting
of the right upper (outer) corner star of the Great Square,
ARPHAXAD, twice around to rising of  the star Vega is 438 days.
Vega/Lyra and the Great Square are "weakly" node stars.

NOTE: Vega/Lyra is very high in the heavens and sets and rises
over a fairly long period of days. Vega is the node
star for ALL of the Patriarchs here
because all of the stars of the chosen people of God,
 the Pleiades, Aldebaran and the Hyades and Orion (also Sirius)
set almost simultaneously as Vega rises
and as the heavenly cross of Cygnus, the Raven (today Swan) rises,
thus Vega/Lyra was seen as the "heavenly"
cemetary by the ancients.
The rising of Vega and Lyra (the "harp"
of Heaven)
meant the entire "folk of Orion " would be setting, i.e. passing away.

The birth of Salah was 35 years after the birth of Arphaxad.
From the rising of the right upper corner star of the Great Square,
Arphaxad, to the rising of the left lower
corner star of the Great Square, SALAH,  is 35 days.

SALAH

SALAH - Biblical age, 433.
From the setting
of the left lower corner star of the Great Square, SALAH,
twice around to the rising of the star Vega is 433 days.
The difference of 5 days (433 for Salah vs. 438 for Arphaxad)
between the two setting corners of the Great Square is exact.
Again, Vega/Lyra is the node star to the Great Square.
The birth of Eber was 30 years after the birth of Salah.
From the rising
of the left lower corner star of the Great Square, Salah,
to the rising of the star cluster Pleiades, EBER, is 30 days.

EBER

EBER - Biblical age, 464
From the rising
of the star cluster Pleiades, EBER, twice around to the
setting of the star Vega is 464 days. The star Vega rising is the node star
to the Pleiades setting. The birth of Peleg was 34 years after the birth of
Eber.
From the rising of Pleiades to the rising of the star Aldebaran and
the Hyades, is 34 days. NOTE: According to the Bible, in Peleg's day,
the earth was divided, for the star Aldebaran and the Hyades, PELEG,
were one node of the ecliptic with the celestial equator and brother
Joktan (Antares) viz. the tip of Scorpio (beta-Scorpionis) was the other
node of the ecliptic with the celestial equator (2340 BC). From this time
on, ages of the patriarchs are not given as multiples of 365.

PELEG

PELEG - Biblical age, 239
From the setting of the star Aldebaran and the Hyades, PELEG, to the
setting of the star Vega is 239 days. The star Vega/Lyra rising is the node
star to Aldebaran and the Hyades setting. The birth of Reu was 30 years
after the birth of Peleg. From the rising of Aldebaran and the Hyades to the
stars of Orion's Belt, REU, is 30 days.

REU

REU - Biblical age, 239
From the setting of Orion, REU, to the setting of the star Vega is 239 days.
The star Vega/Lyra rising is the node star to the stars of Orion setting. The
birth of Serug was 32 years after the birth of Reu. From the rising of Orion,
Reu, to the rising of the star Sirius, SERUG, is 32 days.

SERUG

SERUG - Biblical age, 230
From the setting of the star Sirius, SERUG,
to the setting of the star Vega
is 230 days. (The difference of 9 days to Orion is exact.)
The star Vega/Lyra rising is the node star to the stars of Orion setting.
The birth of Nahor was 30 years after the birth of Serug.
From the rising of the star Sirius, Serug,
to the rising of the star Regulus,  NAHOR, is 30 days.

NAHOR

NAHOR - Biblical age, 148
From the setting of the star Regulus, NAHOR, to the setting of the star Vega
is 148 days. The star Vega/Lyra setting is the node star to the star Regulus
rising. The birth of Terah was 29 years after the birth of Nahor. From the
rising of the star Regulus, Nahor, to the rising of the star Denebola,
TERAH, is 29 days.

TERAH

TERAH - Biblical age, 205
From the rising of the star Denebola, TERAH, to the rising of the star
beta-Arietis (Aries) is 205 days. The star beta-Arietis rising is the node star
to the star Denebola setting. The birth of Abram (Abraham) was 70 years
after the birth of  Terah. From the rising of the star Denebola, Terah, to
the setting of beta-Arietis,  ABRAHAM, is 70 days.

ABRAHAM

ABRAHAM - Biblical age, 175
From the rising of beta-Arietis, ABRAHAM,
to the setting of the right lower
corner star of the Great Square is 175 days.
Those two stars are the rising and setting node stars to Denebola,
Terah, father of Abraham.
The birth of Isaac was 100 years after the birth of Abraham.
From the rising of the star
beta-Arietis, Abraham, to the rising of the star Sirius, ISAAC, is 100 days.

ISAAC

ISAAC - Biblical age, 180
From the rising of the star Sirius, ISAAC, to the rising of the star Altair in
Aquila is 180 days. Altair setting is the node star to Sirius rising. The birth
of  Jacob was 60 years after the birth of Isaac. From Sirius, Isaac, to the
rising of the star Denebola, noding with the right lower corner star of the
Great Square is 60 days,  ISAAC, is 60 days.

JACOB

JACOB - Biblical age, 147
From the setting of the star Denebola, JACOB, to the rising of the star
Denebola, Jacob, is 147 days. Denebola, the Nub, is its own node.
(Denebola is exactly half-way each way to the star Rigel
(As-Rigel = Israel).

JOSEPH

JOSEPH - Biblical age, 110
The age of Jacob at the birth of Joseph?
