I love your GOD voice. Really helps visualise the story. Thankyou.

This is a very literalist view of the bible, which I know many Christians adopt. However, from a very young age I always felt that these biblical stories are allegorical and are meant to be interpreted through a symbolic prism. The fact these stories are myth based, does not detract from bible's authenticity imo. A person needs to use spiritual gifts of interpretation rather than academia to understand these spiritual writings. If God wants to communicate with mankind using myth, why not?

@@ClaireSweets Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed that.

Just showing your ignorance of the Biblical text: there were humanoids outside the Garden of Eden. Why did Cain build a city ? Who helped him ? 4 2 people ? And who was he afraid of ?

@@davidjanbaz7728just where does it say that?

The Bible says mankind was created and THEN Adam and then eve.

@@pwnagraphic690. No it doesn’t. Adam and Eve were the first humans. Modern “literalists” now make things up to support their purported literal view of the Bible. Either read it as literal, or accept it as metaphor and allegory. You can’t have both.

@@TheBeingReal Genesis 4: 11- 17 : other humanoids outside the Garden of Eden is implied by Cain 's statements to the Lord. Verse 14 .... and it will come about that whoever finds me will kill me. Who is Cain afraid of? Verse 15 and the Lord appointed a sign for Cain lest ANYONE finding him should slay him . Who R these people? Verse 17 And Cain had relations with his wife ( not his sister) and she conceived and gave birth to Enoch and he built A CITY ( 4 , 3 people) ? Who helped him? Can U built A CITY by yourself?

❤❤❤ I love this comment!

A bit sensitive, are you??? Like, what's your problem???!! So everyone learns at the same pace?? People are weird.

I hear what you are saying and agree, this is not new at all. But the video is meant to a specific audience is obvious. Whether that is a good or bad use of one's effort, that's another discussion in and of itself. I don't buy into the claims of the bible associated with a Noahic flood because of some of the claims Derrick made in the video but also from geologic evidence like the channeled Scablands of eastern Washington State. This local area is a result of a massive late ice age flood or floods from ice water melt off left a mark of what a post massive flood does look like and thus this evidence can then be compared across the planet and thus what we don't see as a common as oppose to an exception. Across the Northern Hemisphere there is evidences of floods but they don't all conform to a single date making the comparison to a single event claim of the bible even more problematic. I do think the "Joe Rogan" comment exposed a new bias to replace Derrick's old bias but I find many atheists who were once neck deep in fundamentalism also suffer a deep damage and they often bring that damage with them into atheism. Where once they felt the need to "Save the World" for one cause has now shifted to a new cause to "Save the world."

Everything ok at home???

Awww, life gets better my friend. Just let others enjoy it a little as well.

Thank you

Not really: fundamentalist have hyper literalist interpretations of the Bible that prevent them from seeing the Ancient Hebrew context of the Flood narrative. The Bible uses hyperbolic language of the whole Earth but in reality it was their whole earth the middle East and NOT a Global Flood which only came out of The 19th century Restoration movement. NOT historical Christianity's interpretations of Genesis1-11 from the church Fathers. Dr.Michael S.Heiser PhD in O.T languages: his videos explain why the Biblical narrative doesn't mean a Global Flood !

Yeah, old news. And still nonsense

" Liars" making statements without proof is slander buddy! You obviously R ignorant of many Christian scholars and Scientists that don't interpret the Flood of Noah as Global : just A Large Regional flood. People Aron Ra is to afraid to debate because they aren't his low hanging fundamentalist fruit he likes: i.e. Hovind and Ham. Dr. Hugh Ross Christian and astrophysicist has debunked both of these fundamentalists .

The Enuma elish were on 7 tablets named the 7 tablets of creation. Sumerian. The Jewish in exile copied pasted and edited the story .

The Torah tells us that Noah's flood is nothing more than the rainy season and is confirmed in Revelation nine.

George Washington had a picture of the Virgin Mary in his home and converted to Catholicism on his deathbed. All the founding fathers of America were religious; it would have been absurd for any learned man to suggest the uneducated idea that God doesn’t exist. Read your Bible! God bless you ♥️

I would say that humanity is not INHERENTLY evil. There was no original sin

This is true. That’s why I don’t sit around spewing that nonsense that “life is horrible” or “ the world is evil”. Nah. I feel like life is a gift and it’s a beautiful experience to where we have so much power to control most of our lives or choices.

Couldn't agree more. The Abrahamic religions have been a curse on humanity

Shem = Sun. Shem = Sagittarius (Jupiter/Fire), Capricorn (Vesta/Earth) Aquarius (Juno/Air), and Pisces (Neptune/Water). Lud is one with Canaan (Scorpio).

@@harveywabbit9541 I understand the confusion, but the name Shem was derived from the word for "name" and it was done so for ethno-polemical reasons. In Sumerian, "name" was MU, which was referred to in the earliest attested Semitic language at Ebla, and in Akkadian as šumu. To make Noah's son named "Name" after the destruction of mankind sets this Judaically derived figure as the source of "Semitic" languages and "Semitic" people, but this was a grievous lie that many people believe to this day. Also, the Hebraic tradition is highly focused on naming. One of their names for God is HaShem, "The Name." The Hebrew scriptures almost obsess over words and names. Anyway, this same sign for MU was used for the word meaning "to grow" and it is from that Sumerian sign that The Branch of Zechariah was derived, semach, from MU, SIMU, and HILI, all of which were referred to either by semach or in relation to it. There is a cuneiformic logic underlying the Hebrew scriptures

@@Azupiru Shem (a name) was applied to winter because of its unproductiveness. This season embraced November, December, January and February. Japheth signifies addition and denoted spring, because daring this season the days lengthen and the crops grow. Spring included March, April, May and June. Ham means heat, and, therefore, fittingly represents summer, which took in the remainder of the year - July, August, September and October (See George Rawlinson’s Herodotus, vol. 2, p. 237.) The age of each of these three sons was limited to a hundred and twenty years (Gen. 6:3.) The Hebrew shanah, here translated years, may with greater propriety be rendered days, since its root means simply to repeat, or to do a second time. (Gesenius Heb. Lex., p. 1092.) Thus, the combined ages of these three sons will equal 360 years, the exact number of degrees in the circle of the year. ' ' To these three sons was assigned the year, and each Ruled o'er his portion of the vassal world (year), into three parts divided; for the earth into three parts had been by Heaven's decree Severed." - Jacob Bryant's Mythology, vol. 4, p. 102. In Gen. 10. 22, we find Shem had five sons: Elam, Asshur, Aphaxad, Lud and Aram. They were born to him after the Flood (Gen. 10.1), and probably for this special use of the Babylonians. This understood, of course, they may all be readily identified with these five winter months as now reconstructed, and represented by Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricornus, Aquarius and Pisces, thus: "Elam," says Fuerst (Heb. Lex., p. 1040), " stands for paras "= Persian for horseman = Sagittarius; Asshur, one who mounts up = Capricornus, the goat, an animal famous in this direction; Aphaxad, according to Philo, the Jew (Bohn’s Philo, vol. 2. p. 275), is - "he disturbs sorrow" = Aquarius = Moses, who disturbed Pharaoh; Lud was a descendant of Ham, and therefore = Scorpio; and Aram = high = Pisces, the last of the winter months, according to any arrangement now known.

This is the Sumerian account. Sumerian is not a Semitic language.

@@jennifersilves4195 Sumerian is not a Semitic language, but he's discussing the Semitic name for the flood hero, Utnapishtim, represented by two logograms, UD and ZI, in that order. The Sumerian name for the flood hero is Ziusudra, represented by ZI and UD, in that order. But rest assured, Utnapishtim is a Semitic name. The Semitic root npš is used frequently in the Hebrew texts to refer to 'living things,' and npš is the Semitic root represented by the Sumerogram ZI.

The Biblical text uses hyperbole in the description of the whole world but Noah's Flood wasn't Global but A Large Regional flood over the whole Middle East. It's not a problem!

@@davidjanbaz7728LOL. so this flood was so big it needed all the animals to be saved on a boat…but the flood was only regional? Was there some magic wall around the area to keep the water in?

Indeed Aron does.

​@@TheBeingRealWhen you consider the "world" and everything that exists in it to those people in those times consists of an area along the Euphrates and a bit of the Eastern Mediterranean, it makes it easy to understand all the animals in that area comprises of approximately 70 to 100 species and can be accommodated by a medium-large boat with room to spare. That is the entire "world" to them. They cannot write about what they did not know, and we know they didn't because everything else that was written is completely within the confines of that same area, so it only makes sense that is also where all the animals of their world lived that could be gathered up. And there are plenty of modern-day analogues for us to reference. Anytime you see on the news about a big rain anywhere on earth, you always see footage of some farmer/rancher with their family friends, neighbors, pets, livestock, and other farm animals being rescued by boats and shuttled off to safety. Noah did the same thing, but just scaled up in size.

@@michaelmoore7975 Always impressive the extent people will go to guess/suppose/assume to try to justify a story. Where do you come up with the 70-100 species? Are you saying this boat was just in a river or existing sea? Noah lived 600 years? If you believe the bible is the inerrant word of god, how do you get to re-interperate the word “world” as just being localized? That’s a long in the tooth appologist trick on word play. Regardless, the Noah story is just another compilation of works by earlier civilizations than the gospel writers.

Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy the continuous series!

I believe that the flood story's are similar and the Israelites most likely new of the other stores as they were captured by the Babylonians and Persians and Assyrians however when they returned to the Land of Israel Yahweh instructed them to write the bible directing the bible writers what to write so it is reasonable to believe the Hebrew scriptures are the most accurate historical account

Let's not forget "The Epic of Gilgamesh". It's a carbon copy of the Noah story yet it's dated back about 1300 or so years BEFORE the Noah story was written.... Occam's Razor would suggest Plagiarism....

SIDEWALLLLLLLL! LOL

Lucifer was originally Venus the Lightbringer as the morning star .. Fallen angels were originally ''fallen stars '' Stars fell under the earth's horizon so we could not see them anymore. that is what fallen angels mean. Later the more reli groups demonized those astrotheological characters to fallen angels, archangels, demons, devil, Satan etc. Ahriman was supposed to be Satan like in India .. Enki and Enlil , Innana, Enkidu Annu were all Sumerian characters.. The moon never appeared near the earth and there was never a time there was no moon or it must be with the forming of the solar system that the moon formed or was capured within the earth sphere of gravity and got tidal locked. But this never happened while humans were around not even animals or plants. The Sumerian floods were more just small local flood stories nothing to do with ice age flood.

Thank you so much!

Great points!

I don't think that language hypothesis flies. Akkadian and Sumerian were used together simultaneously for so many years that they merged into what philologists call a "Sprachbund". Perhaps reformulate this hypothesis, if you wish, after reading: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akkadian_language {The similarities between Moses' and Sargon's birth stories are clear however}

The Ark of Noah was indeed of the Sumerian tale but the Ark of covenant has nothing to do with such an ark at all. The ark of covenant was Egyptian . Ten commandments were also Egyptian and ultimately the code of Hammurabi.. Negative confessions. The Jews plagiarized the Egyptian book of the deaths as well in earlier times the Sumerian myths as Genesis.

@@connectthedots5678 I said nothing about the Ark of the Covenant. I was talking about the "ark" that Moses was placed in when he was sent down the Nile by his mother. However, this IS all allegory and the Ark of the Covenant and "Egypt" are clearly metaphors. The Books of Moses, which were allegoric interpretations of Sumerian/Akkadian history and legends, served as the foundation for everything else. They gave a sense of legitimacy to the priests who used their secret knowledge to enslave the Canaanites.

Very interesting stories.

@@1EY3King Ezekiel 16.49-50. ‘Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. 50 They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.

1. Adam and Eve had more sons and daughters even as Cain and Abel were learning to walk. It was their mission to populate the Earth and that means instructing their offspring to do the same. Cain and Abel knew and followed suit, and so did everyone born after them. Being so close to perfection, and according to Gods will, being cousins or aunts was not known as such back then: it was normal according to Gods will. The first set of people knew Jehovah and kept having children. These early people lived many hundreds of years so Cain was able to go and build a city, likely a small city. He and they all knew Earth's population was and kept growing, that is why Cain feared having been cursed. You guys are funny. 2. Where did you get the idea that Lot was suppose to be the last person on Earth? Moving on, there are over 200 flood stories globally so, reason states it must have come from a real event. The Chinese written words or characters, a language 1000's of years old, a nation apposed to religion specially against Abrahamic ones, has not paid attention to this that, many of their characters or words or terms EXPLAINS many events that took place in THE BIBLE'S GENESIS not from any other of your actual myth stories. You guys are delusional. 3. It is all very consistent. There are man-made cities and monuments being found all over the globe under the ocean's canopy (in the oceans), clearly pointing at a human population that throws off current science and history on these matters. 4. Some songs in the 1900's and even in our 2000's, were copied because the writers or composers of those songs did not make them legally theirs or didn't do so fast enough. This doesn't mean that just because God didn't have his word written complete from Noah, it doesn't mean the events and people in the Bible didn't exist or that they copied other stories, it could actually mean the Bible's stories happened and the rest of the stories written in other books came from The Bible's actual accounts and history. The Bible's written word never suggests it's a myth but always as actual history and as that history continues throughout all the books it never fails: todays science keeps making it clear that the Bible is fact and accurate, while the other books from the world are overwhelmingly myths and fantasies. 5. The faithful servants of God of ancient times are Alive because (1) Gods word is alive and (2) because they will be resurrected they have never died. 6. The Bible is the only ancient historical and religious book that never fails from beginning to end to support and complement every other book in it, every history in it, every place and people in it. You guys are hilarious. You all know this is the truth, this is real. "The Great Tribulation" will soon come and you, too, know this. You have time right now to pray to God and ask him to help you find him, the one and only True and Living God. His people will find you. "The dragon...the one called Satan...was hurled down to earth, having great anger, knowing he has a short period of time." Satan and the demons are out like 'roaring lions, seeking to devour someone.' Well, they are succeeding all over the world, just look around. But there are some who will do Gods will no matter what.

Where's the evidence?

If what you say happened, it happened at a time men didn't even exist, there's no trace of such an event in the recent history, and by "recent", I mean... like that past couple million years... what you say kinda ressembles the K-Pg extinction, the asteroid that led dinosaurs to extinction, and the asteroid struck in what is now the mexican coast... There's flood myths everywhere for at least two reson : 1°) Civilizations, ALL of them, always spawn by at least a river... so they're all exposed to floods, especially at a time where there was no technology to offset that. 2°) Because myths travel with men, they are spread through exchanges, assimilation etc... as for example, the near-estern/mediteranean/biblical flood myths aren't a multitude of separate myths spawned by each civilisation, but one original myth which has been spread through different civlizations, evolving during hundred/slash thousands years before being written for the first time by the mesopotamians, which versions serves as a reference for the biblical version, the greek version etc, each one with their own flavor and twist.

When you consider the "world" and everything that exists in it to those people in those times consists of an area along the Euphrates and a bit of the Eastern Mediterranean, it makes it easy to understand all the animals in that area comprises of approximately 70 to 100 species and can be accommodated by a medium-large boat with room to spare. That is the entire "world" to them. They cannot write about what they did not know, and we know they didn't because everything else that was written is completely within the confines of that same area, so it only makes sense that is also where all the animals of their world lived that could be gathered up. And there are plenty of modern-day analogues for us to reference. Anytime you see on the news about a big rain anywhere on earth, you always see footage of some farmer/rancher with their family friends, neighbors, pets, livestock, and other farm animals being rescued by boats and shuttled off to safety. Noah did the same thing, but just scaled up in size.
