Hello. dear readers.
After visiting the full scale duplicate of Noah’s Ark in the Netherlands I felt a strong attraction to investigate the bible more deep about the authenticity in bible.
Especially about the geography and chronology of the Flood and Exodus.
As a former chemist researcher I love to digg a bit deeper than
normal.
In 2009 I was
able to join the ABR (Associates of Biblical Research) in excavations at Ai. www.biblearchaelogy.orghttp://www.wnd.com/2006/03/35186/ ; www.baseinstitute.org ; http://christianity.about.com/od/biblestorysummaries/p/noahsarkflood.htm
Because of my
love to fly (also in Spirit) Google- earth seemed to be a great tool to investigate the
bible. (like looking from God’s prospective, halleluja)
Theoretical possibilities:
1. After touching
Mnt. Ararat. the sinking of
the waters started, which resulted in an induced horizontal surface current south eastward
(See picture: red line away form Mt. Ararat).
Deep sea currents were discovered by the oceangraph M.F. Maury (1806-1873) after reading in Ps. 8:8 the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas”
2. This direction
is most likely, because of the presence of a high mountain ridge (north, north-west, west, south-west around Mt. Ararat.
3.
The total sinking time is 216 days until the earth was dry. (waters dried after
169 days)
4.
The distance from the top of Mnt. Ararat south eastward may differ from 80km. up
to lake Aras and river Aras. 180km.(the same elevation)Assumptions:(at the time of the flood 4500 B.C.) | ||||
1. Before the Flood no deep oceans and less high mountains. | ||||
2. After the raining stopped: earthquakes, continents formation/oceans. 3. Mountains increased in height. (Mt. Ararat increased from 2660 up to 5100m.) |
40 days raining and 216 days water sinking until earth dry.
