Who is the tenth oldest person in the Bible?

A:

The tenth oldest person in The Bible would be Shem, son of Noah. He had his first son at just 100 years, and died at 600 years, reflecting the story of his father, who had his first son at 500, experienced the Flood at 600 and died at 950 years. These nice round numbers helped the tradents when they recited the traditions and passed them down orally to succeeding generations.
