Noah And the ARK. A question.?

Question

i was watching either history channle or discovery channle and they made a reference to a obscure left out of the Bible text that said that Noah had the Mummified Body of Adam in the bowels of the ARK. what do you think of this?????

correct God only knows. who are you people to question that.

Answer 1

Supposedly in an alabaster coffin. But this is not mentioned in the Bible.

However, it has been handed down in ancient accounts - much like his wife's initial refusal to enter the ark. Many biblical accounts have had extra "bits" added later by those telling the tale. Consider the Nativity; many people will tell you there were cattle in the stable, and that the shepherds brought Jesus a lamb, but there is no biblical reference for either of these details.

Answer 2

Why would he?I heard he had the skins that God had made to cover them.That they had power over the wild beasts and that later Ham stole them and his granson Nimrod got a hold of them .With these he kept the animals at bay and that's why in the KJV he is called a "Mighty Hunter before the Lord".This is why he became the first major King after the flood.He ended up being deified and became the Gods,Ra ,Baal (Bel) and Molech.
And remember,you'll always get the liberal side from the History channel and Nat. Geographic channel.I love em both but just be aware.

Answer 3

Adam was dead 126 years when Noah was born in year 1056, then he was age 600 Gen.7:6; when the flood came. A mummified body age 726 years. Does not sound right.
There is no bible on it.

Answer 4

I am Catholic, so I would prefer you heard it from a person who represents the people who wrote the stories.
Ask a Rabbi about what the Jews had to do to teach issues of morality to their people while imprisoned in Egypt. You will find that much like the Bohemians, they made up stories to introduce a sermon topic that could then be elaborated on.
Adam and Eve-Relationships between Men and Women.
Cain and Able-Sibling rivalry
NOAH'S ARK-the Family unit and how Family members interrelate with themselves and the community around them.
Tower of Babel-Different cultures and languages.

Sorry to bust your bubble, but NO, there was never an actual Adam and Eve-For crying out loud, why would they even need names? Who did Cain and Able reproduce with-EVE?

Oh you poor Anglicans and your made up religions!

Answer 5

I think that people these days change information to better suit themselves even if it is not intentional. Just as even though I do believe that what is written in the bible is true I also know that without a doubt information in it has been changed. Just as information in history books has been changed.

Answer 6

That is not true. The people who did the documentaries should read the Bible and find out the facts first before they put it on TV

Answer 7

Ummm I dont believe that because its from the History Channel not the Word and it doesnt line up with the Word. I doubt secular sources like seculars doubt G-dly sources, I guess.

Answer 8

How would they know that if it was left out of the Bible? They haven't quite found the Ark. But if it's true I guess it's cool.

Answer 9

Don't discount other historical texts out of shear belief. Remember that we were all one race prior to the Great Flood and we then dispersed. There are interesting references in most older societies of the Great Flood.

Answer 10

I highly doubt it. Sounds too weird. The ark was about preserving life anyway, not preserving death. The dead were left behind in the flood.
