SCRIPTURE

"and Shelah lived after he begat Eber four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters." — Genesis 11:15 (ASV)

And Salah lived, after he begat Eber, four hundred and three
years
In all four hundred and thirty three:

and begat sons and daughters ;
of whom also there is no other account: the same Arabic writer F3 says, he died in the month, Adar, which is called Barhamath, at the close of A. M. 2950; and the Jewish chronologer F4 says, he died in the fourteenth year of Jacob.
