Viram a Jesus, andando sobre a MAR - João 6 - a MAR na Bíblia 3

Viram Jeus andando sobre a Mar

Sabendo, pois, Jesus que haviam de vir arrebatá-lo, para o fazerem rei, tornou a retirar-se, ele só, para o monte.

E, quando veio a tarde, os seus discípulos desceram para a MAR.

E, entrando no barco, atravessaram o mar em direção a Cafarnaum; e era já escuro, e ainda Jesus não tinha chegado ao pé deles.

E a MAR se levantou, porque um grande vento assoprava.

E, tendo navegado uns vinte e cinco ou trinta estádios, viram a Jesus, andando sobre a MAR e aproximando-se do

Most theories about ancient unknown civilizations are based on absolutely no physical evidence, usually just hearsay and speculation. What really would shake the basis of our knowledge of history would be an actual artifact. This probably wouldn't be something spectacular like finding a sunken city in the

Henodus - Sea Monsters 10

Henodus Chelyops

Henodus was a three-foot-long (one-meter-long) marine reptile called a placodont that crushed bottom-dwelling shellfish with two upper teeth at the back of its beaklike snout. The snout was squared off just in front of the eyes, making the head unusually boxy. The ancient placodont looked like a flattened turtle, though its protective shell of bony plates was twice as wide as long and relatively flat.

Four paddle-like limbs and a short tail allowed Henodus to skulk along the
