10 strange foods in the Bible

There are hundreds of parts in the Bible that explain food, drink and food. In the context of food, many Bible stories were compiled. Although most of them are about regular food, others refer to more strange, extreme or supernatural issues.

Here are 10 of the 10 most notable examples (in a particular sequence):

• Gold powder
  When Moses saw the Israelites worshiping the golden calf, they grind the idol in an excellent powder, mix it in water and force people to drink (Exodus 32: 19-20).
• The sciences of Noah
  God gives a two -sided book of Noah to eat Ezekiel. Ezekiel fills its stomach and this book is found “sweet like honey” (Ezekiel 2: 8-3: 3).
• Bread and emission
  God tells Ezekiel that he should eat baked bread on human emission, but Ezekiel fled with baked bread on the emission of animals. Unlike Scroll, we are not told how it has a taste (Ezekiel 4: 10-17).
• Realize
  Forty years live in the desert on the daily provisions of Israeli Mina (Exodus 16:35). The name of Mina allegedly came from the question that the Israelis asked, “Be a man,” What is this? ” (Exodus 16:15). Although some observers prefer the natural answer to this question, for example, Mina is a gossip of desert shrubs, the Bible text offers Mina as a miracle. It falls six days a week but not on the Sabbath, when it is stored and falls on the Israeli land. Even Mina is also known as “the grain of Paradise,” “Paradise bread” or “angels’ bread”, which includes several Hebrew Bible, New Testament and apocryphal texts (Psalm 78:24, 105: 40; John 6:31; 2 Easter 1:19).

• Animal fodder for a king
  According to Daniel’s prediction, the king of Babylon, Nebuchidanzar, had been eating grass like a bull for seven years (Dan 4:33). A similar story appears in 2 acidra (9: 23-27, 12:51), where the excuse maintains itself on the flower food for seven days. Interestingly, many scholars suggest that the story of Nabu Kad Nazar is actually based on King Nabunidus of Babylon, who spent a decade of his life in the Arabic desert.
• 40 days of super foods
  An angel gives Elijah a cake and some water and it is enough to maintain it for forty days’ journey from Beer Shiba to Mount Horb/Sinai, where he faces God in a cave (1 Kings 19: 3-9).

• Eden’s terrific fruit
  There were two supernatural trees in the garden of Eden, each of which was with his own fruits. The tree of knowledge has given the knowledge of good and evil, which makes one like God. The tree of life has given the infinite (born 3:22).
• No food from anywhere
  In the desert barren, many Bible individuals avoid thirst and thirst. For example, Harage and Ishmael have been shown a hidden well by God (born 21: 14-19), Moses gets water in the desert rock (No. 20:11), and Elijah is given bread and meat twice a day by Raven in the desert (1 Kings 17: 1-6).
• Human meat
  Nerousness due to hunger is probably the most extreme punishment in the Hebrew Bible. This is sometimes described in clear detail, such as the exception of the exception 28 that the father and the mothers will secretly eat their children so that they do not have to share the meat (exception 28: 53-57).
• Free refills
  There are numerous stories about the miracles offered by Elijah and Elisha’s prophets. According to the King’s book, a hungry woman’s flour and oil jug filled herself until he filled herself (1 Kings 17: 10-16), a single jug of a poor woman’s oil was able to fill many of her neighbors’ pots (2 Kings 4: 1-17), and a man’s base bread was one hundred and one hundred. A similar story appears in John 6, where Jesus feeds five thousand men with five breads and two small fish. Once again, there is still food.
