Ancient Monuments

[Gregory Matthews]

I am reading a book on New Testament Archaeology.  I have found the following to be of interest, among other   items;

*  The largest megalith at Stonehenge, weighs some 40 tons.

*  There are stones in the Great Pyramid of Cheops that weigh some 15 tons.

We wonder and speculate without evidence as to how those stones were moved into place.

* In the Rabinical Tunnel, on the western side of the Temple Mount, one stone is estimated to weigh some 415 tons!

We do not know  today how such stones (there are others) could have been moved.  That one stone measures some 46 feet by 10 feet by 10 feet or some 4,600 cubic feet.

The reality of these facts should cause pause when considering whether we live in the generation of greatest knowledge. On the other hand making trips to other planets is no mean feat IMHO.

with GOLIATH  being  9 feet tall and ADAM  was  to be 12  feet  tall and  eve was to be  to  his shoulders or 9 feet  tall

we  are  not  going up ward  but  down ward === also  with  most of the  people  living  to be  600===700==800  years

I  am  sure they  could  do  much more than  people  to day=====plus  I  am  sure they  had equipment

to  help them  move all these  large  stones and other  materials===these  were not  simple cave  people

just a thought  here
