Well, the Great Pyramid was an ark made to sustain life beyond the Flood, but is not identical with the Ark Noah built. Atleast that's my honest
opinion.
At the same time the ozon layer was created the nuclear powerplants in Africa were constructed. This stabilised the the planet and paved the way for
life. CO2 and other greenhouse gasses actually cools down the planet after periods when there are less sunspots and the Sun is hotter in it's twelve
staged cycle. The "only" source of heat here on earth are created by gravity and magnetics working on matter, like the Sun and the Core of this
earth. More heat from the Sun or Lava=more CO2 in the atmosphere. Are politicans really this stupid, or are they simply trying to get a better price
for their fossile fuels now that they are about to empty their deposits? Talk is cheap, and money talks. Like the boheme I am I intend to kill myself
slowly because of smoking tobacco. Try to stop me!
I respect your opinion, but I'm telling you. This is the most hidden secret that exists outside of tech.
The ark never was a boat, it was an "ARC", infact many. Noah and his sons built them...look around the earth, you find them all over.
Gopher wood doesn't exist, never has. It is recorded one time in the bible in Gen 6:14. This happened on purpose. The translation mistook a G for a
K....documented.
Gopher wood or gopherwood is a term used once in the Bible, for the substance from which Noah's ark was built. Gen 6:14 states that Noah was
to build the Ark of גפר, gofer, more commonly gopher wood, a word not otherwise known in the Bible or in Hebrew.
This word was made to fit with wood, because it is not a real word. It was Kopher...like Coffin....Stone or Sarcophagus, the dimensions are not
measures but how to scale it. Scale is the only "fair" measure...like a flat tax....all do the same to "scale" added by ltru
Its identity has not been established with certainty. Older English translations, including the King James Version (17th century), simply leave it
untranslated.
[edit] Question over identity
The Greek Septuagint (3rd–1st centuries BC) translated it as xylon tetragonon, "squared timber".[1] Similarly, the Latin Vulgate (5th century AD)
rendered it as lignis levigatis (lævigatis, in the Clementine Vulgate), "smoothed (possibly planed) wood".
The Jewish Encyclopedia believes it was most likely a translation of the Babylonian "gushure i÷ erini" (cedar-beams), or the Assyrian "giparu"
(reed).[2]
Many modern English translations tend to favour cypress (although otherwise the word for "cypress" in Biblical Hebrew is brosh). This was espoused
(among others) by Adam Clarke, a Methodist theologian famous for his commentary on the Bible: Clarke cited the resemblance between Greek word for
cypress, kuparisson and the Hebrew word gophar.
Other suggestions include pine, cedar, fir, ebony, wicker, juniper, acacia, boxwood, slimed bulrushes and resinous wood, and even American trees such
as Cladrastis kentukea (American yellowwood), although this type of gopherwood has no known relation to the material of Noah's Ark.
Others, noting the physical similarity between the Hebrew letters g and k, suggest that the word may actually be kopher, the Hebrew word
meaning "pitch"; thus kopher wood would be pitched wood. Recent suggestions have included a lamination process (to strengthen the Ark), or a
now-lost type of tree, but there is no consensus.[3]
It came to rest on Erets, another mistranslation of Ararat. Erets means "drain off place", in other words "Desert".
Noah, which means "Rest" is an action, not a guy, these are reductionist stories. Always remember, God honors no man, only those who "do"....God
found "rest" pleasing. I find rest pretty pleasing, don't you?
Also, he "orion" set his bow in the clouds...in egypt where your lord and savior was endowed....can still see the three crosses, lined up by the
sphinx, the centurion the one who binds all the links, the records for you to unlock with this clue, is it a lamb or a lion you will lay next too? I
play by the hole of the hissing asp, and it crawls over me, the lord holding back it's wrath to strike, so delight in the words coming from my finger
tips, chances are you won't hear them from my lips. Let the truth be your guide, all that is true can be seen, i promise no boat was or has been. If
you believe god is true, truth will open every door for you....cause once you know, it's time to go, can't have people spoiling the show....like
me.
