how can i put this how was technology used in the bible?

Question

i need to do a project i did something a little different so how can i say or find out how did technology help the bible out?

Answer 1

Cars were very helpful in the Bible. The Christians were all in one accord. (Honda I believe it was.)

Answer 2

How did technology help the Bible out?--Hmm. There is a phenomenon called "hapax legomenon," which means a word which is only used once in the Bible. I would think that technology would help to discern some of these which might not have been discovered before computer technology.

Or did you mean how did technology help Biblical figures out? This is a little dicier, as it brings up things like the Tower of Babel and the apostle's (I forget which one's) comment at the Transfiguration that they should build booths (one for Jesus, one for Moses, and one for Elijah).

Or you could take the booths technology and go back to the Old Testament (look up "Succos origin" or "Sukkoth origin" in your favorite search engine to get the proper Old Testament reference).

Answer 3

The Bible actually teaches a spherical shape for the earth. In Isaiah 40:22 God is said to sit above “the circle of the earth” (the Hebrew word for circle can also mean a sphere). Also, in Luke 17:34–36 Christ's Second Coming is portrayed as occurring while some are asleep at night and others are working at daytime activities — which means a rotating earth with day and night at the same time.

Answer 4

I don't really understand your question either, but I'm guessing you're looking to find out how technology helped the Bible to become so widespread. The first thing was Guttenburg's printing press. (not sure if I spelt that name correctly. he's the German guy who invented the printing press. one of the first things he printed was the Bible, and his Bible's are now among the rarest documents to be found). Another technological advancement would be computers and translation software. This helped make the Bible available to people of all nations and languages. Now the Bible is the most widely distributed book ever printed.

Answer 5

well, way back in history only a very few people had access to books - including the bible
and only a few people could read, so 'the masses' had to rely on a priest or cleric to read the bible and 'share' the word of god
the invention of mimeograph and printing press made it possible to make copies of the bible without literally copying everything by hand - that made it cheaper to produce and more accessible
as printing technology (and technology to produce paper) advanced, the bible could be distributed widely and has thus become the best selling book of all time

Answer 6

WELL!, I put the Bible on my PDA. I was never able to read the book in its entireity but now... anyway, the search, bookmark, dictionary and lexicon feature really does wonders for my understanding. The only problem is I don't like some of the things I'm finding out. I did find out the Bible has it ALL!

Answer 7

The tower of Babel.

How did the Jews build the Egyptian structures. They rolled these huge blocks on logs. But how did they hoist them onto each other?

There are tons of examples in the Bible, unfortunately, I don't know the answers to how they did most of the things they did back then, but there's something to start from.

Answer 8

Your question isn't clear, but I'll give it a shot.

In the beginning, there was nothing. God said "Let there be light!" and there was light.

Now, see, light was "technology". Being able to see made the rest of his job a lot easier.

Answer 9

are you thinking like modern technology?

There are references to things that might be referring to actual flying machines.

Here's some articles on the subject (which is totally fascinating)
