There are places in the Old Testament where is says that a man lived 120 years, 400 years, 600 years, and in the case of Methuselah, 900 years. Modern Biblical scholarship holds that this was a reference to the accumulation of their wisdom as opposed to the average man - not a precise reference to their age.
