After the month year there came a
five month year, the limit of five be-
ing derived from the fingers on one
hand. it being remembered that prim-
tive people always used the fingers
for counting purposes. Then came the
twelve month year.
Excuse for this Encouragement is
found in the Psalmist's limit Of life
to three score and ten years, and It
is maintained that between the times
of Noah and David no such extraor
binary change could have taken place
as to reduce the life of man by eley'
en-twelfths. On the five month year
