I'm surprised you didn't already know this. Can you not find any reference to this on the "internets?"
Apparently, there are various genealogies throughout the
Old Testament, including their ages. Did you know that people used to live past 900 years old? It says so in the Bible so it must be true! Anyway, this coupled with the few references to history, such as the reigns of various kings and rulers, and you can build an approximation to the age of the Earth! At the very least, you can determine an upper bound for its age...
Are you convinced, yet?
