Who overlaps Abraham?
Overlap uses only complete lifespan bars in this collection’s relative chronology. It does not establish a meeting or friendship.
People without a plotted birth date (21)
Dates, relationships & sources
A relative KJV chronology, not BC dates. Lifespans are given in Genesis. Birth positions are calculated from stated ages; Joseph’s position combines Genesis 41:46, 45:6 and 47:9. No bar is drawn when a birth or death date is unknown.
The linked passages are the primary sources. A lineage connection means stated ancestry and can skip generations. Relative charts use the KJV chronology described above; other textual traditions may differ. Friendship, ministry and succession are not biological relationships. Reign lengths measure rule, not a life.

Genesis 1:1–2:3 is read here as its own account. This entry does not turn the narrative’s days into a scientific age of the earth or assign a BC date.
The linked Bible passages are the primary sources for this summary. Dates describe an event’s proposed setting, not when its book was written.
Where no historical year is shown, this entry follows the biblical account without assigning a modern calendar date.
