Miz Clark
Did Adam and Eve eat fruit or were they taught forbidden things in the Garden?
Was the serpent the infamous Samyaza?
Are Cain and Abel heteropaternal superfecundation twins, which suggests Cain was the first of the Nephilum to walk the Earth?
Did this event introduce beastiality into human society.
PLEASE ONLY RESPOND IF YOU HAVE READ THE BOOK OF ENOCH.
It would help if you have read Jasher, Jubilees or the Lost Books of Eden too. I am not interested in how this relates to Jesus ( I know him too). I am interested in an ACADEMIC conversation in examining the alleged allegory of this story.
Please no atheist bashing, some of them love a good story and could offer a valuable opinion on this!
And please no bashing the asker because I chose to learn about the MOST HIGH in sources other than the Bible.
Thank you!
4 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoTwo Saviors? Matthew 27:16.. Jesus Barabbas :-O?
Hebrew and Aramaic translation of this text:
At that time there was a well known prisoner whose name was Jesus Barabbas
KJV, and most English translations:
And they had then a notable prisoner named Barabbas
Forgive me for being a linguist but doesn't [ bar=son and abbas= god]
Jesus Son of God...which one did they crucify?
Sorry to give the atheist more ammunition but we kinda set ourselves up for this one by translating Matthew into Greek and then somehow losing the original version.
I smell a rat! I would love for someone to explain this to me!
3 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoIs it possible Noah's flood is at least partly true?
Archelogical evidence is against a global flood, but what about a global event? It is possible for a comet to provide the water that is missing from the story which every culture has a version? We all know once it enters the atmosphere the natural balance is upset.
Depending on the size and if there is anything left...where do those pieces go? In the water? What kind of weather disaster would that create? According to Scriptures (Bible, Quran, etc) this wasn't a one day event but happened over a period of time.
Not everyone was an idiot back then...could other people have prepared or remembered Noah's rantings when it all went down? If all of the giants, monsters, wicked men, (which ever you chose to believe) supposedly died, then where did Goliath come from? David was SEVERAL generations later! Is it safe to say more than just Noah and his family survived?
Come one, come all! I welcome athiests because you keep us searching--Thank you!
