Hi
I am wondering if anyone has any great interpretations for the Genesis passage that talks about man only having 120 years left. Some say that this is the new "lifespan for mankind" others say this is how long it would be until the flood....which is correct? Either? Are there any Hebrew insights?
Thanks for your thoughts
