"SIGNS OF THE END TIMES PART TWO" BY PETE GARCIA FROM THE INSPIRATIONAL "OMEGA LETTER"!!

Signs of the End (Part 2 of 5) - Pete Garcia -http://www.omegaletter.com/articles/articles.asp?ArticleID=8223
 
And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.  Luke 17:26-27
 
The catastrophic flood of Noah's day, not only wiped all traces of the antediluvian peoples from the face of the earth, but also changed the geographic landscape of the earth's continents.  It was during one of Shem's descendants, Peleg's (Gen. 10:25) era, which the earth was divided.  There is much speculation and discussion about what this exactly means, but a curious note in the Book of Jasher (2:11) says--It was Peleg who first invented the hedge and the ditch, the wall and bulwark: and who by lot divided the lands among his brethren.
 
Along with centuries old scholarly discussions on the subject who have debated between some violent and sudden form of continental drift, or the separation by mass migrations of the offspring of Noah, either way, it happened during Peleg's day, which was around 111 years after the flood.  Keep in mind, that Genesis 10, provides an overall summary of Noah's descendants and their dispersion across the face of the earth and is summarized as such in verse 32.  When proceeding on to Genesis 11, take note that mankind is united there on the plains of Shinar near Babel so that Genesis 11:1-9, is an expansion of just one of the grandsons of Noah (as mentioned in chapter 10), prior to their global dispersion from Babel.
 
Cush begot Nimrod; he began to be a mighty one on the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the Lord; therefore it is said, "Like Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord." And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. From that land he went to Assyria and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah, and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (that is the principal city).  Genesis 10:8-12
