Did God send angels to earth to cut down the great trees prior to the flood to prevent the survival of the giants.

These are some other comments posted on THAT verse of scripture. I don't see anything referring to trees. See if you meant a different scripture?I've never run across anything saying the vegetation was revised by God because of giants.

In my local Sunday Bible class we are going over John 17: 14-24, KJV. The lesson is entitled, "Called As The Intercessor" Thats where I came across verse 17. And, as sometimes happens, the verse drew me to it. I'm writing because of something that was mentioned in your "People's Bible Notes." "The means of canonization is not a Pope, but the "truth." As a former Catholic i am glad to see you make that distinction. I think that's important, very important. Thank you, for taking the time to read my opinion.

This is a wonderful promise of Jesus for each one of us. Praying to be sanctified in His truth. I bow down before Him and praise Him now and forever more. Amen

Hope this helps. The Bible Commentary on this website agrees too. Mishael

The waters were 15 cubits( approx 21 inches each) above the mountains. Genesis 7

Timothy,

The Flood lasted 5 months. No one, even a huge man who might climb a tree, could survive without food for 150 days.

"And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days." Gen 7:24
