Does the bible say anything about the age of the earth?

No, but Jewish and Christian scholars have been able to calculate it based on the genealogy in Genesis. It’s a little less than 6,000 years old. In the Jewish calendar, the first year is the year the earth was created. It’s way off from the actually age of the Earth, it’s over 4 billion years old, but sadly, some people still believe in the biblical estimate. I don’t blame ancient Jewish scholars for coming up with such a low number. It was unimaginable to consider that anything could be that old. To them, billion was a number that was Godly in grandness. Also, they didn’t know anything about dinosaurs. I found the exact date of creation according to Jewish calculations: October 7, 3761 BCE, it was a Monday, no joke.
