Excerpt from A Key to the Chronology of the Hindus, Vol. 1 of 2: In a Series of Letters, in Which an Attempt Is Made to Facilities the Progress of Christianity in Hindostan, by Proving That the Protracted Numbers of All Oriental Nations When Reduced Agree With the Dates Given in the Hebrew Cert of the Bible With a view of furthering this desirable object a Key to their Chronology is now offered; which being extracted from their roost ancient and most sacred institutes, no orthodox Brahman can object to; and chronology is so far necessary to religion that without dates it is difficult, if not impossible to stamp authenticity on history, whether sacred or profane. For when, apparently, the same event is placed by different nations at epochs the most remote from each other or when different persons of the same nation, appear to place the birth of the same person in different periods of the world, it is a natural inference that one or all of the narrations are unfounded. If, therefore, by an analysis of Hindu chronology, the protracted numbers, which have so generally been pronounced astronomical periods, are proved to correspond with the dates given in the Hebrew text of our Bible, one great object is obtained.
