The Life of Jacob

Start — Genesis 25:26. The year of Jacob (second-born son of Isaac)'s birth is the year his father, Isaac, was born (2110) + the age of his father at Jacob (second-born son of Isaac)'s birth (60) = 2170
End — Genesis 47:28. The year of Jacob (second-born son of Isaac)'s death is the year he was born (2170) + his age at death (147) = 2317

Years are anno hominis — counted from Creation as year 1 — which is the frame the source computes in. The arithmetic behind each boundary is given above rather than assumed.
