The true Bible story of Noah's Ark Abraham was 58 years old when Noah died but this is certifiably wrong. Jewish tradition, based upon the corrupt Masoretic chronology, has long viewed Shem as Melchizedek, who died when Jacob was 50. The correct Septuagint chronology says that Shem died in 2796 BC, hundreds of years before Jacob was born in 2006 BC. Again, this Jewish tradition is impossible to reconcile with the flood, Tower of Babel, population dynamics and the archeology of Dynasty 0 of Egypt and the first pyramids in 2650 BC. 2.
