Bible Note: Greetings Lionstrong! Interesting study.. I would only add that many kinds of plants and animals were lost forever in the flood (Genesis 6:17). It is interesting to note that animals began to fear men only after the flood (Genesis 9:2-3).. Also, Genesis 1:29-30 declares that all animals and people began as plant eaters and the world was entirely vegetarian at the beginning. But eventually animals became carnivorous and people ate meat only until after the flood (Genesis 9:3). It is interesting to note that even though animals did become carnivorous, they will return to a nonagressive nature (Isaiah 11:6-7). So will we become vegetarians in the future? :) Blessings to you, Nolan |
