Dinosaurs

and dragons:


Are you one of those who says "dinosaurs never existed!  And dragons CERTAINLY didn't!"?  Well, then the Bible is wrong.
Verses about dragons and sea monsters.  Also, see my PROOF that Dinosaurs exist  - TODAY!!!

Isaiah 14:29
(KJV) "Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a cockatrice, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent."

The original Hebrew reads:
שֵׁ֣בֶט מַכֵּ֑ךְ נִשְׁבַּ֖ר נָחָשׁ֙ מִשֹּׁ֤רֶשׁ צֶ֔פַע יֵ֣צֵא וּפִרְיֹ֖ו מְעֹופֵֽף׃ שָׂרָ֥ף

The word for "cockatrice" is "tsepha" - meaning "a serpent":
https://biblehub.com/hebrew/6848a.htm

The entire Hebrew is translated:  "be glad     feleshet ["Philistia"]     the whole     that/for     club/scepter/rod/staff     to strike/hit/beat/kill     to break/shatter/destroy     a serpent/snake     a root     a serpent/snake     to go or come out     fruit     to fly     fiery or serpent (or both)"

So, I guess a "cockatrice" is a serpent/snake.  The  word "his" was added, as well as "shall be".  (and "thee" and "him")

Revelation 12:9
KJV: "And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."
NIV: And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
(Koine Greek: μέγας δράκων ἐβλήθη ὄφις ἀρχαῖος καλούμενος Διάβολος Σατανᾶς πλανῶν ὅλην οἰκουμένην ἐβλήθη γῆν ἄγγελοι ἐβλήθησαν)
Literal meaning:  "great     a dragon     to throw/cast    a snake     original/ancient     to call     slanderous/accuse falsely     the adversary     to wander/case to wander    whole/complete    to throw/cast    earth/land      a messenger     to throw/cast"
("down with him" or "out with him" was added in both translations. "Deceives" is actually "slanderous/accuse falsely")

Revelation 12:3
KJV: "And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads."
NIV: Then another sign appeared in heaven: and behold, a great red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads were seven diadems.
(Koine Greek: καὶ ἄλλο σημεῖον οὐρανῷ ἰδοὺ μέγας πυρρὸς δράκων ἔχων ἑπτὰ κεφαλὰς δέκα κέρατα κεφαλὰς ἑπτὰ διαδήματα)
Literal meaning:   "and/even/also      other/another    a sign      heaven     look/behold     great     fiery red     seven     the head     ten    a horn    the head    seven     a crown"
("appeared" was added in both translations.  Also, who knows what a "diadem" is?  99% of English people do not know what it is - and although Christians sing the Hymn "bing forth the royal - dia-dem...", I've asked over the decades, and nobody can say what it is.  People guess - I've had from "robe" to "sceptre" to "shoes" to "street of gold".  Although the Koine Greek [stated above] is "διαδήματα" - meaning "diádēma" – which is "a royal crown".  That's why I prefer a version that states "a crown".   Ah - "bring - forth - the - roy-al - crown ... and crown - him - -  Lord - of - all.")

Revelation 12:11
Everyone wants to know who "they" was.  That was ADDED:
(KJV: "And  _they_  overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death."
--  Original Greek: "ἐνίκησαν διὰ αἷμα ἀρνίου διὰ λόγον μαρτυρίας ἠγάπησαν ψυχὴν ἄχρι θανάτου"
--  Pronounced "enikēsan dia aima arniou dia logon marturias ēgapēsan psuchēn achri thanatou"
--  Literally means "to conquer/prevail       through      blood       a little lamb       through       a word       testimony       to love with Church love       breath/wind/the soul         until      death"

Huge giants - dinosaurs walked with man and are still around in some parts, especially in Congo (PRC). They even have a name for it called "the mocku membe"(sp?) It's a long necked dinosaur with a long tail, it still exists there. What about what people call the supernatural or aliens.  Remember "Goliath"??  Many cite Goliath as being "4 cubits and a span", which is 2.06 metres, or for the Americans who still want to use the British system (why???) - that's 6.7585302 feet.  WHY do Americans still insist on BRITAIN - when they celebrate "Independence Day"???!!!  Going forward, this proves how SHORT they were back in that day - if they were ASTONISHED at 2m tall.

Some text dictate 2.38m [7.80 ft], while other ancient texts claim that he towered at "six cubits.  McClintock and Strong Biblical Cyclopedia ("Goliath"): His height was "6 cubits and a span," which, taking the cubit at 21 inches, would make him 3.2m [10.5 feet] high. Clarke's Commentary: "9'9" is the most reasonable.".  So, CLEARLY, we cannot rely on our own understanding.  However, if Enoch talked about TOWERING people - twice that of a man", who knows the height, since the Jews in that day were shorter than today - probably averaging 1.5 or even 1.4m tall.  Again, for you spoiled, hypocritical Americans, that's 4.9 to 4.6 ft tall - again, using that old British system.

One of the Dead Sea Scrolls and some important Greek manuscripts - along with the testimony of Josephus - present Goliath as 2.75m [6-9'] tall. There are two options for how these readings arose:
(1)  an unintentional scribal mistake or
(2)  an intentional scribal change.
Even if he was the height of over 2.9m [9.5 feet], Goliath would have undoubtedly been seen as a "Big Unfriendly Giant" (BUG), even to modern people who are taller than our biblical predecessors.  The Book of Enoch mentioned VERY tall people, TOWERING [next article below], so that's at least twice what a normal person is, and at 1.5m, that makes it 3m minimum.  The ceiling in the average home is 2.4m high. The average semi-truck trailer height is 4m.

Back to Dinos and volcanoes...
Turtles are also dinosaurs and all lizards. Before the flood, everything was in a perfect climate and much more oxygen and carbon dioxite - and things grew double or triple the size of now.  The flood [supposedly] stopped the long lives and large animals, because the the environment was changed.  We also still have unicorns. A unicorn is a one horned animal, a rhinoceros.  Dragons also existed since dinosaurs were called Dragons until the 1800s and even culture has stories of fighting Dragons.  It's even on the Chinese calendar with all real animals.

There's a volcano bubbling up out of the middle of the area between two roads in a city in Mexico - in Tlaxcala.  It is also just under the road and ground.

The word “dinosaur” is derived from two Greek words: “deinos,” which means “terrible” or “fearfully great,” and “sauros,” which means “lizard” or “reptile.”
Although Richard Owen gets all the credit, yet he stole specimens, and often [stole the] credit for others' work, the real inventor of "dino" words were:

--  A geology professor named William Buckland examined them in 1824, and the source of the bones was eventually called "Megalosaurus", named from the Greek words megas, meaning “great,” and sauros, meaning “lizard.”

--  Just one year later (1825), a doctor named Gideon Mantell pondered the teeth and bones of another reptile that had been pulled out of the sandstone in a nearby forest in Sussex. The teeth had serrated edges, were often worn down by chewing, and bore striking resemblance to modern iguana teeth. Mantell named the creature "Iguanodon".

In 1833, he would describe yet another species—the armored Hylaeosaurus, or a “woodland lizard.”

--  THEN, in 1941 ...  Sir Richard Owen, The Victorian scientist, coined the term "dinosaur" in 1841 to describe 3 fossil reptiles with similar features.  It was a grand achievement for a man once labelled "impudent" by teachers at Lancaster Royal Grammar School, which he attended from 1809 to 1819.  Yet, he had developed a reputation for controversy, was accused of stealing other scientists' specimens and undermining people by writing anonymous reviews of their work, while supporting them in public. Owen's contemporary and rival Gideon Mantell described him as "overpaid, over-praised and cursed with a jealous monopolising spirit".


The discovery of dinosaurs didn’t happen all at once—it happened in fits and starts. In fact, larger-than-life bones were unearthed across England and the United States throughout century 19 (1800s). One of these giant fossils appeared to be vertebrae discovered near Oxford, England, a fragment of a lower jaw, and “daggerlike” teeth.


When did dinosaurs exist on the earth? Were they still living after God made man?
We know that dinosaurs existed because there is a significant amount of evidence that they did in the fossil record. The question is, where do they fit into the chronological record? If man has existed for only a relatively short time then how do we explain the long ages that science has assigned to these animals? Did the earliest known dinosaurs begin to appear in the Triassic period some 245 million years ago?

The typical answer to the above question is usually based on misconceptions concerning the chronology as outlined in the scriptures. Some believe that everything that was created was made when man was formed. When it comes to dinosaurs, we will see this assumption is incorrect.

A Prior Creation
The Bible reveals that there was a creation prior to Adam and Eve. Even though Man was made on the day 6 of creation, he was not the first living organism to be created!

Although man is, at most, a few thousand years old, the earth itself is much older. We are not sure, however, how much older because the Bible simply does not give us that type of information. The first chapter of Genesis is not an initial creation story, but a re-creation of things that already existed. This allows for the possibility that dinosaurs may have been brought back into existence.

See Genesis 1:1.

NOTE: Neanderthals and Denisovans survived major cataclysmic events, questioning the extent of humanity's resilience during such times. Neanderthals, whose last recorded settlements were in southern Spain and the caves of Gibraltar, are thought to have survived until around 40,000 years ago, with some isolated populations potentially enduring slightly longer. Similarly, Denisovans likely persisted until approximately 40,000–30,000 years ago, leaving their genetic legacy in modern humans.

Nephelim bones - hidden (lied to) by the US Government. We have also been lied to - by the US Government - about the Nephelim - giant bones that were delivered to the Smithsonian - then "discarded". Also, the 112,000% rise in brain clots - since the vaccine. Then there are the sex tunnels" - under America - where /massive/ sex business is done. America is the next "Sodom and Gomorrah". Bill Gates and Opra Winfrey at the helm - hence Biden's open borders. That was for votes, drug and sex trade.
