According to Christianity, did unicorns go extinct before or after the dinosaurs?

Answer 1

The term "Unicorn" is used in Christians bibles is a mistranslation (there are many) from the original Hebrew scriptures.

Answer 2

are you saying you believe in unicorns, or that you do not believe in dinosaurs? naturally pairing the two the way you have in the question leads me to assume that you consider the two linked, therefore, i can also assess this demoralizes your intentions. the fact that you consider the two linked shows your ignorance and lack of ability to debate on a higher level. the trickery of this question lies in the fact that if i say the bible does not discount the possibility dinosaurs, then it also does not discount the possibility of unicorns. i can say the bible has strong support behind archeological evidence, therefore the biblical probability that unicorns did exist is very, very slim. but, a unicorn is a mythical creature, with mythical powers, something the bible expresses as false. however, you have exposed the greater reasoning, a universal negative and a universal positive. i do not discount the possibility of what the bible does not express, therefore i have expressed a universal positive. you in turn express a universal negative, discounting things even if not proven, therefore your question is a contradiction of your own conviction.

Answer 3

An unicorn - The word may mean either a rhinoceros, or a strong and fierce kind of wild goat. But such a creature as an unicorn, as commonly painted, has no existence in nature.


Num 23:22 -
he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn — Israel is not as they were at the Exodus, a horde of poor, feeble, spiritless people, but powerful and invincible as a reem - that is, a rhinoceros


unicorn: The reaim, most probably denotes the rhinoceros, so called from the horn on its nose. In size he is only exceeded by the elephant; and in strength and power inferior to none. He is at least twelve feet in length, from the snout to the tail; six or seven feet in height; and the circumference of the body is nearly equal to his length. He is particularly distinguished from all other animals by the remarkable and offensive weapon he carries on his nose; which is very hard horn, solid throughout, directed forward. He principally feeds upon large succulent plants, prickly shrubs, and branches; and delights in marshy places.

Genesis 1:20-25 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
waters Psa 104:25

21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
fruitful Gen 8:17

23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
kind Gen 6:20, Gen 7:14, Gen 8:19

25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

God made all animals at the same time. and here is what the defination of what a unicorn is...

reh-ame', reh-ame', rame, rame
From H7213; a wild bull (from its conspicuousness): - unicorn.

It was not a horse as we percieve it to be but a bull.

Answer 5

Where in the bible does it say that a unicorn is a one horned horse? I think it is rather refering to a single horned dinosaur, and modern day myth has turned it into a horse. Kinda hard to accept unless you think outside the box. Try it.

God bless
