Judaism came from Christianity

Ussher’s chronology is based on a 7000 year old Earth assumption; a non-starter historical perspective.

That is the Hebrew perspective. If you're going to appeal to a longer historical perspective, you must embrace the Greek OT for evidence. Just making that point. There are choices to be made between contradictory "evidence".

I don’t understand why the LXX has any bearing on whether Egyptian worship practices existed prior to the dynastic era of Egypt’s history.

I mentioned the flood of Noah. The LXX has a much larger context of genealogies. Generally speaking, we are talking closer to 10,000 years. In that context, you can find "room" for 3100 BC.

How can the LXX have a larger context of genealogies than the Hebrew from which it was derived?

In manuscript transmission, it is referenced as "streams" of manuscripts. Different variant Hebrew manuscripts existed. There wasn't a single manuscript tradition. There were many. My position is there are at least 4. Probably more.

The "Diaspora" that took place in the "Babylonian" judgement of Israel greatly affected the manuscripts that were passed down. I realize that many people do not know/understand these facts. It was well recognized in the early church . It was part of the discussion in the canonical process of the 4th century and the battle between the Augustine/Jerome for the future of the "Latin" Bibles. The MT was reconstructed. At a bare minimum, The Dead Sea Scrolls along with the "Four Great Uncial Codices" prove this to be true. If you listen to "Wes Huff", you'd never know this. (So much for the so called "experts").

It is dangerous to let others think for you brother. I abandoned the Calvinist/Arminian battles along with Islam soon after I began my ministry. I dug into the history of this. It mattered more to me than a bunch of men all arguing to be referenced as the "chosen".
