PLEASE! YOU TELL ME.
I can read Scripture probably as well as you can. But I think I've communicated to you before, I absolutely loathe guessing games like that--especially hereon about Biblical topics. I loathe them and will not play them. If you want to communicate something to me, then please have the courtesy and respect to do it straightforwardly. I'll stop there.
Certainly I agree with you about the times and comparing them to Noah's era.
This morning I was reading Jeremiah. He described his detractors thus: "They say 'Come, and let us smite him with the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words'." That resonates with me... BUMP
I have been reading as much as is available regarding "the time of Noah", but the KJV, and the IL only have about 6 verses that say anything, and what is said is cryptic at best.
The Book of Enoch covers the "time of Noah" fairly well, but translations are questionable.
Alamo_Girl has it pinned down, as far as what happened, and why.
No one is prepared to believe the un-imaginable.
