Genealogy
Date of Birth
The Bible says nothing of the date of Carmi's birth. His grandfather Zerah was born in 2283 AM ({{#show:Zerah|?Born}}), and Achan must have been born in 2295 AM or later. (If he survived to enter the Promised Land, then he was not an adult in the year following the Exodus of Israel, {{#show:Exodus of Israel|?Date}}.) Therefore three generations between Zerah and Achan span 212 years. Thus Zerah, Zabdi, Carmi, and Achan were born about 71 years apart.
