Chapter 467 Sufficient evidence
Pope Francis thought Ye Zhen had discovered something new.
Unexpectedly, it was already denied in the last century.
As the Pope, Francis of course knows that Mount Ararat is the place where Noah's Ark docked.
In the last century, people were indeed sent to check it out.
However, various data do not conform to what is recorded in the Bible.
Do you think it's possible that the Bible records it wrong?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
That’s the Bible! How could it be wrong?
Pope Francis couldn't help but be disappointed with Ye Zhen, "Just a person who is just trying to gain fame."
Isis and Tom watched Ye Zhen's show together in the hotel room.
Originally, in order to save money, Tom wanted to open a guest room.
But I didn't expect that Isis would go directly to the White Swan Hotel.
Directly booked a luxurious suite.
Let alone Tom and Isis, it would be enough for a whole family to live here.
Because these suites are prepared for families to travel.
So Tom and Isis are now roommates.
While watching the show, the two of them watched in the living room.
Isis asked: "How do you think Noah's Ark could hold so many things at that time?"
Tom shook his head and said: "This is 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high. I don't know how long this cubit is."
"If it is a very big ship, it should be possible."
Shift your attention to Ye Zhen.
"After a lot of hard work by the joint archaeological team at that time.
We finally reached Mount Ararat, where the foreign ship-shaped object was.
And after their measurements, they found that the foreign object of this ship type was 157 meters long and 26 meters wide.
According to the records in the Bible, Noah's Ark was 300 cubits long and 50 cubits wide.
Are you very confused, what is the unit of cubit?
The Old Testament was written by the Hebrews.
Therefore, their unit of measurement is the Hebrew cubit, and one Hebrew cubit is 45 centimeters.
Let’s calculate how many cubits this equals? "Ye Zhen threw the question to the audience again.
Many viewers picked up their computers and started doing calculations.
"157÷45 is approximately equal to 348.9.
"This is already approximately 350 cubits, which is different from what is recorded in the Bible."
"The width is also different, it is already more than 50 cubits."
"Ah? Does this mean this is not Noah's Ark?"
This data is obviously different from what is recorded in the Old Testament.
Archaeologists are a very rigorous group of people.
"This error is too big, I said it can't be true."
"Why is this happening? But if this is not Noah's Ark, what is it?"
"Is it possible that there is a mistake in the Bible?"
After scientists saw this data.
"This 157-meter ship is 26 meters wide, if it has three floors."
"It is already a very large ship."
"But there's no way to fit all the animals in."
"Could it be that this Noah is some kind of god who has mastered space technology? Hahaha."
Obviously these scientists sometimes have wild ideas.
This ship, which is more than 100 meters long and more than 20 meters wide, has three floors.
Even for modern times it is considered large.
It is half the size of some modern cruise ships.
After seeing this data, Pope Francis already knew it in advance.
"There is no way this discovery is Noah's Ark."
"It is completely inconsistent with the length recorded in the Bible."
When we were excavating this ship-shaped foreign object in Türkiye's Ararat Mountains.
They were indeed very excited.
But just after measuring the data.
They discovered that this was inconsistent with the data in the Bible.
It shows that this is not Noah's Ark at all.
What does Ye Zhen mean by bringing it up now?
But Professor Yan Xin knew that Ye Zhen would never do useless work.
"300 cubits? The data does not match." Professor Yan Xin felt that something was wrong here.
This is the case archaeologically.
As long as there is one place that cannot be consistent and justified.
It doesn't mean that the place you found is the place you think it is.
Although the location and location are correct, and a ship-shaped thing was also discovered.
But there is no way you can say this is the legendary Noah's Ark.
Because even Pope Francis knows this data is wrong.
This difference is almost 50 cubits.
Song Xuan smiled and said: "Could it be that boy Noah, feels that this boat is too small."
"I just made it a little bigger myself, or Noah is not good at carpentry and the measurements were wrong."
Ning Xiu glanced at Song Xuan, "Do you think Noah is a fool?"
Apparently Ning Xiu thought that Noah could not have made a wrong measurement or deliberately made the ship too big.
Because different sizes require different construction periods.
What if I deliberately make it larger and the construction deadline falls behind?
God will not reason with you if he destroys you.
If there is a big flood on that day, it will be a big flood. We will not wait another day.
If Noah could even make mistakes in his measurements, it would mean that Noah didn't deserve to live.
This life-threatening thing can actually go wrong?
Ye Zhen on the screen smiled mysteriously.
“You can now open the world map and directly find Ararat in Türkiye.
Use the satellite map to check it out based on the coordinates I gave you.
Is there a boat-shaped foreign object at the top of the mountain? ”
According to the coordinates Ye Zhen said, it was indeed found on the satellite map.
There is indeed a ship-shaped foreign object on Mount Ararat. "Have you figured it out? Why does it seem to be different from what is recorded in the Bible?
Is this not Noah's Ark at all?
In fact, everyone thought wrong because this unit was used wrongly.
Everyone thinks that the Old Testament is the Bible of the Hebrews.
Therefore, we are accustomed to use Hebrew cubits to calculate.
In fact, everyone has mistakenly thought that this should be the measurement unit of ancient Egypt.
That is to say, it is calculated in Egyptian cubits.
Because this involves a legend, that is, the Exodus and Moses’ parting of the sea.
The unit recorded in the Old Testament is Egyptian cubits, not Hebrew cubits.
And what is the Egyptian cubit? One cubit is 52.4 centimeters.
300 times 52.4 centimeters is equal to 157.2 meters.
50 times 52.4 centimeters equals 26.2 meters.
Looking at it this way, is it consistent with what was discovered in Mount Ararat in Türkiye? ”
After Ye Zhen's calculation, the data is indeed correct!
The audience feels that this is a step closer to real history.
“It turns out it’s the work unit, isn’t it?”
"You have to use the ancient Egyptian units of measurement."
“It shows that when they copied the Bible, they didn’t know what was going on.”
"Now the dimensions match."
But some archaeologists think.
"Even if the data matches, it doesn't mean this is Noah's Ark."
"Yes, it could be just a coincidence."
"You have to see what's inside to find out."
"Maybe it's just a natural rock that happens to be that big?"
In fact, this possibility cannot be ruled out.
Because of the uncanny craftsmanship of nature, sometimes it can really create a lot of outrageous things.
The scientist did not expect that this was actually a problem of the unit.
"Now I understand the importance of unifying weights and measures."
"This further illustrates the greatness of Qin Shihuang."
"Some countries still use gallons and imperial units now, which is simply anti-human."
“Don’t they all use meters and liters uniformly?”
As scientists, they certainly know the importance of units.
Because the units are different, there have been many different accidents in history.
Inches and inches are two completely different units.
Professor Yan Xin smiled and said: "I knew Mr. Ye had some ideas."
"It turns out that the problem occurs in the unit of measurement."
"In this way, this thing on Mount Ararat in Türkiye is very likely to be the legendary Noah's Ark."
The Pope in the Vatican heard Ye Zhen's explanation.
He immediately stood up from his jewel-encrusted throne.
"He actually used the Egyptian elbow!" Pope Francis looked at Ye Zhen on the screen in disbelief.
"So the ship-shaped foreign object is in line with what is recorded in the Bible?" the cardinal just lost his voice.
"Oh my God, we're all missing something."
"Who would have thought that this was recorded using the Egyptian cubit?"
Moses was a very important prophet in their Christianity.
He lived and learned from ancient Egypt, so he naturally used ancient Egyptian units.
But they have always ignored this issue.
Pope Francis wants to re-evaluate Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen continued: "Now it's just that the sizes match.
It doesn't explain much.
I want to see what is inside this ship.
This place was only measured in length and width.
There is almost no follow-up, because it was wrong from the beginning.
They felt there was no need to continue.
But Turkish officials feel that this is an ancient site after all.
If it can be developed, it will be another tourist attraction that can attract tourists from all over the world.
So they sent people to continue exploring.
And it uses high technology, such as radar and electromagnetic wave detection.
Finally found it down here, after radar analysis.
I found that there was a place that looked like a cabin.
Every place is clearly separated by Jingwei.
Fossils of wood were also found.
You can tell that the wood is part of the boat.
It was later sent to the laboratory for analysis.
It was found to be a five-ply plank held together with asphalt.
And through infrared spectrum measurement, it can be found that the material of this wood is pine and cypress wood.
It is a very suitable wooden material for making ships.
In addition, alloy rivets were also found inside.
It contains components such as copper, iron, and aluminum.
Most importantly, traces of shells were also found on Mount Ararat.
And there is a stone monument that has stood here a long time ago.
There are several mountain peaks on this stone monument, and next to the mountain peaks is a ship.
There were eight heads on board.
There are several birds flying on this stone tablet.
It is such a simple stone tablet. ”
After hearing what Ye Zhen said, everyone watching the show fell into deep thought.
