I will say to you, you have NO idea what Genesis from the original Hebrew actually says, especially those first 6 chapters. This modern age has NO clue, well some do, reason for the invention of evolution but there is nothing new under the sun as it is written.

Psalms 22 foretold of Christ's death and exactly what that chief high priest would say and what those soldiers would do. That makes King David a Prophet as welll as part of the line though which Christ would come.

Christ Himself said that He came not to destroy the LAW or the Prophets. Paul said that what was written of them was for our admonition (warning) as to what would happen again to bring an end to this world (flesh) age. When somebody tells me the script has already been written long ago and all I need to is to read with understanding as what is to be again I pay attention.

Then again as Christ Himself said it was written that NOT all would see/hear for their own protection that many were called and few chosen.

Doesn't matter to you what is already foretold that would be, so be it. I personally am not satisfied with what man has to say.

Since I don't read Hebrew, that is true. However, I've read enough, differing translations, to get the gist of what it says. So unless there's been a conspiracy lasting hundreds of years covering up a number of false translations, I have a fair idea of what it says.

This makes no sense. But, evolution was formulated to explain the diversity of life.

Psalms 22 foretold of Christ's death and exactly what that chief high priest would say and what those soldiers would do. That makes King David a Prophet as welll as part of the line though which Christ would come.

Interestingly, Psalm 22 doesn't contain the name "Jesus" even once. If ol' Dave was such a great prophet, you would expect him to at least mentioned it, even if just in passing... Also, since the Gospels were written well after the Psalms, it wouldn't be too difficult to make the former conform to the latter.

Christ Himself said that He came not to destroy the LAW or the Prophets. Paul said that what was written of them was for our admonition (warning) as to what would happen again to bring an end to this world (flesh) age. When somebody tells me the script has already been written long ago and all I need to is to read with understanding as what is to be again I pay attention.

Of course, this presupposes that one actually believes this stuff.

Then again as Christ Himself said it was written that NOT all would see/hear for their own protection that many were called and few chosen.

So? The Koran says something different, as do all the other holy books in history.

Doesn't matter to you what is already foretold that would be, so be it. I personally am not satisfied with what man has to say.

Yes you are. The men you are satisfied with lived and died thousands of years ago.

THe "original Hebrew" is not the "original language" of Genesis. It must necessarily have been handed down in something comprehensible at Babel, right?
