TMT 193: Genesis 8:6 – 8:18

6After forty days Noah opened a window he had made in the ark 7and sent out a raven, and it kept flying back and forth until the water had dried up from the earth. 8Then he sent out a dove to see if the water had receded from the surface of the ground. 9But the dove could find nowhere to perch because there was water over all the surface of the earth; so it returned to Noah in the ark. He reached out his hand and took the dove and brought it back to himself in the ark. 10He waited seven more days and again sent out the dove from the ark. 11When the dove returned to him in the evening, there in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf! Then Noah knew that the water had receded from the earth. 12He waited seven more days and sent the dove out again, but this time it did not return to him.

13By the first day of the first month of Noah’s six hundred and first year, the water had dried up from the earth. Noah then removed the covering from the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry. 14By the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was completely dry.

15Then God said to Noah, 16“Come out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and their wives. 17Bring out every kind of living creature that is with you—the birds, the animals, and all the creatures that move along the ground—so they can multiply on the earth and be fruitful and increase in number on it.”

18So Noah came out, together with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives.

    Wow… Social media the new tower of Babel… Profound!

    A dread came upon me over the last 5 years; when life gets so automated, what jobs will man do, but be made to code and if you want to look at it from the perspective of the book of revelation and the thought that the #MarkOfThBeast could be somet to do with technology

    The heart❤️ represents the 🤯mind🧠, not feelings (emotions) as modern thinking (worldview) fleetingly asserts. #qotd

    Reading the Torah in English, is like reading Shakespeare in Spanish #qotd
