Oh, those verses mean something; just NOT what some here are claiming...to me, anyway. And I just don't care to get into oooooooooooooooooo, what every word, comma, period, capital letter means. I don't look for any "hidden", read between the lines,secret messages from GOD, when I read the Bible. It says what it says and that's that; except that no, I'm not a literalist. The crazy longevity, in the OT, was a common to the time and area device, also used by other cultures.

I asked a simple question, got no answers, but instead, got told a lot of rewordings of the same position. That's okay, I guess. Believe whatever you care to believe in and allow others to do the same. But, when asked a query, don't just give back some rehashed thing, saying that's the way it is, that's what everyone I know believes.

And now.....bye bye.........this discussion is at an end.

Don't have to, Revelation says what that verse means in Genesis. The Bible explains itself, that's why it is what it is, just need to read it

No. I was thinking of holding your arms behind your head until you agree :::rolling eyes:::
