>>9897280>hey all died in the flood only Noah and his family surivived, that is biblical canon. Fuck Christian Identity LARPers.Not everyone died in the flood the flood was local. I will explain that in a few posts.
Right so let's do a study on the flood. This comes up alot
When we come to Genesis chapter 7 where it is talking about the flood, wherever it says the flood covered the earth, the Hebrew word used in the original writing by Moses was eh-rets, meaning country, land, ground or territory. The flood did cover the particular land where it occurred. It was a local flood which covered one particular region or land, not the whole earth.
Notice that it specifies, “Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.” In ancient times two different lengths of the cubit were in use. The sacred cubit of 25 inches and the common cubit of 20-5/8th which translates to 25 feet 9 inches or 31 feet 3 inches according to which cubit you use. If this meant that all the mountains on earth were covered, the waters would have to cover Mount Everest, which is nearly six miles high. Therefore, all the earth would be covered by water six miles deep. In that case, where could it have run off to when the flood subsided? No, I don’t mean that the Bible was that badly mistaken, only the translators made this mistake. The translators took the Hebrew word אֶרֶץ eh-rets, which means “territorial land” and mistranslated it to mean the whole world.
To mean the Earth as in the Planet eh-rets needs הארץ - (Land) in front of it to form the word.
כדור הארץ - (Earth) Just the singluar אֶרֶצ (eh-rets) means specifically, the Territorial land.
This will take several posts.
