How long after flood of Noah's day was Nimrod around?

The flood of Noah's day occurred in 2370 B.C.E. Genesis 7:1-16, Luke 17:27 and the Tower of Babel was in 2269 B.C.E. There is a total of 101 years between the two events. Nimrod was already an adult with a reputation and had become a King by that time so he must have been at least 20-30 years old or so.

Genesis 7:1-16, 24 reads:
7 After that Jehovah said to Noah: “Go into the ark, you and all your household, because you are the one I have found to be righteous before me among this generation. 2 You must take with you every kind of clean animal by sevens, the male and its mate; and of every animal that is not clean just two, the male and its mate; 3 also of the flying creatures of the sky by sevens, male and female, to preserve their offspring alive over all the earth. 4 For in just seven days, I will make it rain on the earth for 40 days and 40 nights, and I will wipe from the surface of the ground every living thing that I have made.” 5 Then Noah did everything that Jehovah had commanded him. 6 Noah was 600 years old when the floodwaters came upon the earth. 7 So Noah, along with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives, went into the ark ahead of the floodwaters. 8 Of every clean animal and of every animal that is not clean and of the flying creatures and of everything that moves on the ground, 9 they went inside the ark to Noah by twos, male and female, just as God had commanded Noah. 10 And seven days later the floodwaters came upon the earth. 11 In the 600th year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the 17th day of the month, on that day all the springs of the vast watery deep burst open and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. 12 And the rain poured down on the earth for 40 days and 40 nights. 13 On that very day, Noah went into the ark along with his sons, Shem, Ham, and Ja′pheth, and his wife and the three wives of his sons. 14 They went in with every wild animal according to its kind, and every domestic animal according to its kind, and every creeping animal of the earth according to its kind, and every flying creature according to its kind, every bird, every winged creature. 15 They kept going to Noah inside the ark, two by two, of every sort of flesh that has the breath of life. 16 So they went in, male and female of every sort of flesh, just as God had commanded him. After that Jehovah shut the door behind him. 24 And the waters continued overwhelming the earth for 150 days.

Luke 17:27
they were eating, they were drinking, men were marrying, women were being given in marriage until that day when Noah entered into the ark, and the Flood came and destroyed them all.

Noah was the first patriarch of the post-Flood society. (Genesis 10:1-32) Nevertheless, during his lifetime false religion again rose up among those under the leadership of Nimrod, as is seen in their rebellious attempt to build “a tower with its top in the heavens” for fear that they might be scattered “over all the surface of the earth.” This was in direct opposition to God’s command to “fill the earth,” and was a rebellion also against Noah’s position as God’s prophet. Noah died about two years before the birth of Abraham. He therefore got to see Jehovah’s judgment on the builders of the Tower of Babel and the scattering of those rebellious ones over the face of the earth. Noah and Shem were not involved in the tower building and consequently would not suffer confusion of their language, but would continue to speak man’s original language, which God gave to Adam.—Genesis 9:1, 28, 29; 11:1-9.

The Tower of Babel has traditionally been depicted as a type of ziggurat, although the Bible doesn’t give specific dimensions. Interestingly, this word means tower but figuratively reflects a flowerbed that yields a pyramidal shape. This gives a little support to the idea that the Tower of Babel may have been pyramidal or ziggurat shaped.

  1. False information based on pagan Christendom speculation. Nimrod died almost age 500 in the year 2256am (1770bc) which places his birth in 2270bc unable to build a 2269bc Tower simply because someone pagan speculates Peleg was born that year. To the contrary most sources place the 50-year Nimrod as born in year 450 and dying in year 950; presuming it was year 3192am after 2256am Flood. The tower is confused with the 52-year Marduk Temple (2060-2009bc) that was built AFTER the tower was completed in 2060bc. Eusebius indicates Abram was 9 years old with the temple started 43 before Abram. All clay tablet sources prove the tower was built outpost from the city Kish that built it; Kish being the father Cush building house in 2270bc when Nimrod was born. The tower date is indicated by 130-year Cainan whos 130-year fall is mistaken as foundation in year 130 (2370-2240bc). In 360-day 130 years is 128 Julian where decades of 10 meet 13-year Mars (verifying 2368-2240bc). This article here indicates NOTHING abslutely no data on the tower at all. It skirts tower-topic by giving Flood dates. The new years for Mars is 2368bc Oct 1 to 2240bc Nov 18. Noah died on Mayan new year (Pop 1) while Nimrod died on (Mayan Yax 1) Aztec new year because those calendars are retreated from Egyptian Thoth and Pamenoth (1st and 7th months). In original Egypt Noah is Mesor 15 (349-6-15 on 2021bc Dec 25) and Nimrod is Mekir 15 (599-12-15 on 1770bc April 22). It is confused with the 360-day date N.1208-12-15 on 1770bc Dec 25. The ziggurat shape of Babel tower is known to be 7 stories. One does not have to speculate on implications by some writer. The confusion of languages is placed in 1996am as year 340 when Noah was 940. This refers to panic when Peleg died 700 years younger than Noah. THe Seder Olam places 1996am in 1765bc while Peleg's death was actually 2030bc May 5/6. The suicide of Nahor and grandson Haran was on Kayak 24 (2029bc May 5) becoming the Kayak 25 Christ Mass drifting back to Greek new foundation of 1498bc Kayak 25 (Dec 25) after the 1514bc Armageddon comet struck Earth (its break-off orbiting for 40 years to Nisan 1473bc. Ur's tower 2239bc was built in 134 years completed in 2105bc before Babel's tower of 2240bc was finished in 180 years in 2060bc. Kish only divided in half; so that as most records speculate that Babel and Ur are the same city, instead Ur divided in 2031-2029bc going back to Babel to build Babylon around it, and up river to build Mari Syria. The destruction of Ur did not occur until 1900bc where they fled to build Harappa India. But these were not Asia (Mari Syria from Ur) because those families were taken by Hamurabi to be residents of Babylon in 1762bc and freed to Harappa India and Asia in 1625bc (Amizaduga's death bringing Venus tablets to Harappa) as year 2400am.

  2. There were no patriarchs in the preFlood world; the patriarchs wereall angels older than all humans. Patriarch was not PaPa because Adam thought himself God for Eve remaining forever daughter and rebellious daughter in his eyes (the way God gave him). The proof is that allreligions are subconscious liars thinking Abel is 2nd son and Seth is 3rd son. The fact is Cain like father thought himself as firstborn oldest to be God over all siblings; not letting Abel potentially be RIGHT as Eve thought herself right about the tree. When Seth is born it is Eve not Adam who says this son sees has sight like Abel does. And so being older doesnt mean you are a patriarch PaPa as the angels took such place. Thus Noah as father of the world was NOT father to his sons wives, nor was he ruling patriarch PaPa until nations collected as cities to each claim they do what PaPa wants not the other cities. The reality is you hae no patriarch unless you have a grandpa that thinks he owns his grandsons. And that first grandpa was Peleg father of Reu grandpa of Serug. Peleg at 62 made Reu at 32 acting ruler over those in debt to Peleg even though they were age 33-62 oldr than Reu. He nade them bend to the will of his son Reu from 2207bc onward (the year grandson Serug was born). Ruling 80 years, his son Serug was then named as Mesh-king of Ur the same year AND DATES Nimrod named the Mesh-king of the city Ereck. This is the ruling elder of all those appointed and anointed as elders. And so patriarch and appointedelder and kings all begin with the city Ur not Babel. In doing so the city Kish appointed its elders because Peleg and all Ur came from the city Kish. Babylon was NOT built around Babel (2240bc) for 210 years (2240-2029bc), its tower not complete for 180 years (2240-2060bc). Ur had a temple in 2148bc with Nahor as priest who created 780-day Marduk calendar 88 years before Babel finished its tower and his grandson Haran started Babel's Marduk Temple (2060bc built by Nimrod/210 and Haran/18). When Ur fell and divided from Nahor's mass suicide in 2029bc, much of Ur moved to build Babylon around Babel, the rest (Asian families) built Mari Syria. But Babylon had no king until 1894bc. Thus patriarch and kings begins in 2207bc as honored by Babylon in 747bc as 365 leap days cycle (747bc Assyria mistaken that Babylon has its first ing in 2207bc). The world concludes Ur and Babel are the samebecause they ignore the phrase Moses records of other kings JUST LIKE Nimrod and other cities JUST LIE Babel. These kings and cities are all government alternatives to Babel, NOT a result AFTER Babel. Babylon only had 300 years of kings 1894-1594bc until Moses was born. The3 traditions are all lies and mass interlock facts prove it so. One cannot help nor change that WatchTower accepts and teaches the pagan historic claims of Christendom or ancient pagan myth traditions.
