A scriptural chronology of history excelling any other chronology is found in the Book of Enoch (http://www.sacred-texts.com/bib/boe/boe096.htm http://www.sacred-texts.com/bib/boe/boe097.htm) which is immune to scribal errors in copying numbers which plague other scriptural chronological records because it is recorded in a sequence of seven hundred year timespans and especially records what happens at the end of each such period.
It starts with the birth of Enoch at the end of the first seven century 'week' after Adam.
"And Enoch began to recount from the books and said:
'I was born the seventh in the first week,
While judgement and righteousness still endured."
I estimate the 'weeks' of centuries correspond roughly to these periods:
c3900 BC start of first week
c3200 BC start of second week
c2500 BC start of third week
c1800 BC start of fourth week
c1100 BC start of fifth week
c400 BC start of sixth week
c300 start of seventh week
c1000 start of eighth week
c1700 start of ninth week
c2400 start of tenth week
c3100 end of tenth week
Enoch based the foretelling on records of God's plans he was allowed to see when in Heaven and tells of what seem to me to be these events which in his time (when he recorded all this for his descendants) were future events.
Flood around 2550 BC,
first law codes 2500 to 2000 BC, Abraham's call around 1900 BC,
eternal Law given around 1200 BC,
house of glory built forever around 500 BC,
a man (Christ) ascending somewhere between around 300 BC and 200 AD, elect about to enter enlightenment around 900 AD,
elect and righteous dominating around 1650 AD,
reign of righteousness and demise of wickedness up to 2350 AD,
Final Judgement around 3050 AD
This implies the enlightenment and rise of Western learning among believers in Christ from 1000 AD onwards was possibly at least partly the work of the Holy Spirit in teaching elect people about nature. This led to domination of enlightened people over the whole world up until around 1700 AD. After that and until today and in centuries from now onwards the wicked will start to be suppressed and eliminated with righteousness taking more and more lead (especially when Christ returns - other scriptures say).
IMPORTANTLY Enoch tells us the Final Judgement will be 3500 years after the building of the second temple in Jerusalem
Note
The years above are approximate but an improvement of accuracy would probably adjust them anything up to 50 years earlier to fit better with the time of the giving of the Law so something like this
c3950 BC start of first week
c3250 BC start of second week
c2550 BC start of third week
c1850 BC start of fourth week
c1150 BC start of fifth week
c450 BC start of sixth week
c250 AD start of seventh week
c950 AD start of eighth week
c1650 AD start of ninth week
c2350 AD start of tenth week
c3050 AD end of tenth week
But note too that it (Book of Enoch) says "in the tenth week in the seventh part" so c3050 AD is the latest this could be and anytime between 2930 and 3050 would be in the seventh part of the tenth week. It is just that Jesus has not yet returned (He did say it might be at the eleventh hour - just before the latest time it could be) so His return could been in line with this prophesy at anytime from 1930 to 2050 AD - yet quite a lot needs to happen apocalytically first and there is little time left to keep in accord with the heavenly books from which Enoch was recounting.
