Greetings heapshake, Why are you continuing this discussion? Is it for the sake of arguing? Searcher56 has answered your question, and so have I. Is there anything to be gained in continuing this fruitless discussion? To what end do you seek? Are you honestly asking this question out of sincerity? Searcher56 has no need of continuing to defend his answer or to answer any of these 'cedar' questions. - Makarios |

No it isn't for the sake of arguing. When I read that verse it doesn't jump out to me that it is talking about the trunk. I was trying to find reasons to believe that it did refer to the trunk. I don't have a problem with it being a trunk, limb, or needle. "No" didn't provide me with any info as to why it couldn't be. Your answer just changed it from being "bend" to "stiff" but didn't deal with stiff as what. Searcher56's last answer was what I was trying to get, but I would like to know what the reasons are for this answer. I'm looking for clarification. I don't doubt Searcher56's answer, but when someone asks me "Why can't it be a needle" I won't get very far saying Searcher56 says it can't. |

Thank you, heapshake, for clearing that up. I appreciate your willingness and efforts to solidify an answer, and I apologize for accusing you of continuing to argue with Searcher for the sake of arguing. I pray that Searcher56 will be able to provide you with the answer that you are looking for. Blessings to you, Makarios |

Its not a problem. This topic recently came up and I was just looking for something solid to base my reasons on. I'm not sure it has to deal with any one aspect of a cedar but probably deals with the cedar as a whole. When someone says "he swims like a fish" most people don't say which part of the fish are you refering to. However I can see that bending like a cedar could be unclear. | ||||||

Heapshake, be of good cheer for I have the answer (or so I'd like to think.) The passage is talking about the cedar as whole, specifically the trunk which is more flexible compared with other trees which grow as tall and wide as cedars, e.g. the oak tree. | ||||||
