Bible Note: Yes I guess this is one of the differences between me and many others, I try to take the Bible literally if at all possible. Since we know that at one point there was one continent and now there are many and since this says doing Peleg's life the world was divided I buy into it. For me this interpretation works, doesn't effect salvation, and I can't be contradicting the Bible since I didn't apply any meaning to the passage other than what it said. I try to take things as a child with almost child like faith! Hey wait a minute didn't Jesus say we were suppose to have child like faith? Wow, maybe I'm on to something! :-) |
