Old Age in the Old testament
Julius Caesar introduced a new calendar in 46 B.C. to incorporate Leap Days as part of the reform, that year's calendar included 445 days making it known as "THE YEAR OF CONFUSION."
In the meantime, Consider time in the bible. There was yet no hours, days, weeks, months, and no years. There was no calender existing. But God inspired his authors to write the number of long years these poor saps lived and died:
Genesis 5:1 God made man in His likeness.
Does this explained man’s immortality?
Genesis 5:5 Adam died at 930 years of age.
Genesis 5:8 Seth died at 912 years of age.
Genesis 5:11 Enosh died at 905 years of age.
Genesis 5:14 Kenan died at 910 years of age.
Genesis 5:17 Mahalalel died at 895 years of age.
Genesis 5:20 Yered died at 962 years of age.
Genesis 5:23 Enoch died at 365 years of age.
Genesis 5:27 Methuselah died at 969 years of age.
Genesis 5:31 Lamech died at 777 years of age.
Trivia: Noah died at 950 years of age.
Shem died at 600 years of age.
Terach died at 205 years of age.
Abraham died at 175 years of age.
Isaac died at 180 years of age.
Jacob died at 147 years of age.
Moses died at 120 years of age.
Genesis 5:24 Enoch walked with God and he was not; for God took him.
Enoch walked with God clearly implies he did not die like Elijah did not die in Kings 2:11.
Enoch and Elijah went to heaven without dying?
Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was taken so that he should not see death…
Note. The Talking Serpent (devil) never died. For the glory of God, the devil is still pretty much alive existing in the Philippines popularly known as a well-respected and highly admired politician in the government. Poch Suzara
