Subject: [b-hebrew] Flying or Darting in Isaiah 14:29 and 30:6

You might want to check an article by John Goertzen at
www.rae.org/pteroets.html. I'm not sure of his credentials and his
conclusions may be questionable but he notes that depictions of winged
serpents were common during the time of Isaiah. Whether this is a
reproduction of something purely mythical or a recreation of something the
people saw in the fossil record may not be determined. I believe the author
claims that details in the drawings suggest that they still had some of these
critters flying around at the time they carved these images.
Sincerely,
