Re: insignificant
The Aborigine version, for example, used Noah's name directly. But when the languages changed, and taking into account the expanse of time and that it was not going by use of scrolls, papyrus, stone, or whatnot as used by the ancients, names of people, places, things, etc.
The thing is a lot of people ommit the times when people believed them, or it is unknown, more than likely if they use the name of noah then, its from the last 200 years when they came in contact with the english missionaries.

Re: ...continuing...
just to tell you there is no outside evidence of nimrod, other than the bible
heres a good site on assyira http://www.aina.org/aol/peter/brief.htm
while tradition may say what that book does, evidence we found doesn't agree with it
she did exist though but she never knew nimrod or married anyone named nimus, it was a cultural myth the greeks wrote

Re: ...continuing...
Didn't you just provide a website with a landmark called, "Nimrod"?
no, i don't think its suppost to be nimrod
Under the subtitle of "geography" and under the 2nd paragraph, "Strategically surrounding the Tigris and the two Zabs are the Assyrian cities of Nineveh, Ashur, Arbel, Nimrod and Arrapkha."
i think its a typo i think they mean nimrud Nimrud - Wikipedia
if they wrote nimrod on purpose, you got me, theres no place called nimrod anywhere in the middle-east
Edited by ReverendDG, : No reason given.
