"In the breeding season of the flock I lifted up my eyes and saw in a dream that the male goats that were mating with the flock were striped, spotted and mottled. Then the angel of God said to me in the dream, 'Jacob,' and I said, 'here I am!' And he said, 'Lift up your eyes and see that all the male goats which are mating with the flock are striped, spotted and mottled, for I have seen all that Laban has been doing to you."
Bible actually has some pretty neat science in it. There is actually even a lot of stuff in it that supports big bang theory. |
I totally agree with your reference to the big bang and that some things seem quite advanced for that time - but then on the other hand ancient egypt seems even more advanced and just little of that knowledge survived in the bible.
From your wikipedia-article line 4: "The idea was proposed in ancient times by Hippocrates and Aristotle"
This is more an example how science was lost in the dark ages and how common sense was used by shepherds.
