Bible Question:
Yes, that's part of it and also Genesis chapter One where God separated the waters below and above. Can anyone elaborate on how the whole system of watering worked in antediluvian times? Also, were people vegetarians before the flood? I noticed in Genesis Chapter 1 that God gave people plants for food but it doesn't say anything about God giving animals for food. Chusarcik |
Bible Answer: Chusarcik No we can't explain how the watering system worked, since the Bible does not reveal this. Yes apparently meat was first used for food after the flood.Genesis 9:1-4 So God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them: "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth. [2] And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be on every beast of the earth, on every bird of the air, on all that move on the earth, and on all the fish of the sea. They are given into your hand. [3] Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. I have given you all things, even as the green herbs. [4] But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. EdB |
