Re: Bible Hebrew question

Sorry for a typo, my Magdalenian word for fruit was
PER, not par. - Google changed the interface of
the groups, now one gets the first message of
a thread, and it's rather diffcult to find the last one.
So I hope they install the function "go to the end"
also in the "no frame" modus. FG

There's no apple in Genesis; there's only a fruit - pariy.

My Magdalenian word for fruit, found one year ago,
is PAR. The fruit in the Bible, usually given as apple,
was a grape of dates, which is proved by two Sumerian
tablets, one of them showing a woman (Eve) and a man
(Adam) with plenty animals, among them a huge snake
forming a stairway to the sky; "Eve" and "Adam" appear
again on the second tablet, seated next to a date palm,
Eve on the left side, Adam on the right side. The palm
looks very strange, like a latter to the sky, and there
is again the huge snake forming a stairway to the sky.
This means that Eve, who invented agriculture in
northern Mesopotamia, at the base of the Karacadag
east of Goebekli Tepe some 10,000 years ago, also
planted date groves in southern Mesopotamia in later
times, or in younger times. Date palms require plenty
of water, hence irrigation. The snake is a very old
symbol of rivers, in Goebekli Tepe also for rain that
falls from the sky and fills the river beds. The report
in the Bible may allude to an ancient myth of a giant
snake drinking sweet water from the clouds and then
filling the four rivers of the paradise with her water,
perhaps Euphrates, Tigris, Nile, and Ganges. Now the
irrigation of date groves required very much water.
Eve, listening to the snake, and following her advice,
invented irrigation, which led to plenty further inventions
and thus triggered a technological and cultural progress,
which made us recongize good and bad: the very same
technology can be used for good and evil purposes.
And the snake was punished for her advice - no more
sweet water from the clouds, from now on she was
forced to swallow dust, a very appropriate symbol for
a river winding across a dust plain, or filling a wadi ...
