Widder, SASS #59054 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 You fellers, along with Pat and Larsen and others seem to be kinda smart and know some good history stuff. Q: Do any of you know how many wives Methusela out lived? I do. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Is this sort of like that bear joke where you only have to be able to outrun at least one person in your group? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 None. Why do you think he lived so long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Shapiro Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 As far as I know, he had one wife named Naamah. But I could certainly be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted February 4, 2022 Author Share Posted February 4, 2022 O.K..... I'll give you the answer and then you can tell me 'WHY' the answer is......... All of them but 4. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 This sounds like the Civil War pensioners wives. A bunch of the old goats were in their 80's and 90's and married 12 year olds. When they died their wives got their pensions. The last Civil War pension wife died in 2020.

I think that was a daughter, not a wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That all depends on the Bible definition of a “year”. There’s no answer for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted February 4, 2022 Author Share Posted February 4, 2022 ANSWER: I didn't say those wives were married to Methusala. The wives that out lived him was Noah's wife and his 3 daughter in laws, who were wives of his 3 sons. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpo Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Well if you're looking at it like that, the answer is millions upon millions upon millions. Since Methuselah died thousands of years ago there have been multi-millions of wives that have lived past that date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although Lamech had two wives (Adah and Zillah) which I thought would be considered as outliving Methuselah, considering that Lamech himself died 5 years before the Great Flood at age 777.
