Bible Discussion Thread

Part 1 of 4 Hello George Hartwell and John Ritter, I disagree with you that Gilgamesh flood came before Noah 's flood. I do not believe that Gilgamesh flood was real. According to man, Gilgamesh may have been written before the Bible. However, this does not mean that the Bible is not fact and truth. Also the flood of Noah s time killed every human being except Noah and his family which numbered eight. Therefore, could it be that the people, who had written this Gilgamesh, were born after the flood? The numbers BC started large and as time continued on decreased, because Alexander the Great timeline was 323 B.C. this was after the flood. Then after the birth of Christ the numbers began with smaller number and then increased to what we have today 2014 A. D. The point I am trying to make is that the flood is estimated to have happened 1656 A. M. year of the world or 2348 B.C. According to what I read, Gilgamesh account of the flood was written 2000 or 2200 B.C. Some scholars say that it was written 1150 B. C. this would put these writings away after the flood happened. This being the case means that those who wrote the Gilgamesh Account embellished a lot on the real account of the flood of Noah.
