Thread: Deep Thoughts on The Bible Unveiled Part 3 – Genesis Hidden in Chinese Characters. This is the episode that ties the series together in an explosive way. The pictographic nature of early Chinese script (pre-phonetic dominance) acting as a “time capsule” for pre-Babel knowledge is one of the most compelling arguments I’ve seen for Genesis as shared human memory.
Highlight #1: Boat = vessel + 8 + people. Specific number 8 matches the exact number of Genesis flood survivors (not 7 or 9). Ancient oracle bone script confirms components.
Eden sequence: Garden (enclosure + dust + breath + two people), Create (speak + dust + life + walk), Forbidden/Covet (trees + woman + devil/God/command).
It’s the narrative flow of Gen 1-3 embedded pictorially—developed ~2500-1500 BC, before the written Torah.
Tower character (grass/plants + one/unity + mouth/people) evoking united humanity’s rebellion. Timeline alignment: Babel dispersion ~2247 BC → Xia Dynasty ~2205 BC (Sinites from Gen 10 migrating east).
Wild cards: Righteousness = sheep + me (Lamb sacrifice foreshadow). Olmec (~1200 BC) with markings a Chinese scholar read as characters—trans-Pacific contact post-Babel? Dragon legends as surviving dinos (post-flood extinction).
Skeptics note etymologies evolve & some links are interpretive, but the sheer number aligning sequentially with Genesis is hard to wave away as a coincidence.
Opinion: Cumulative with Parts 1-2 (ShangDi=Creator God, flood/Yu parallels), this makes a strong case for post-Babel eastward migration carrying uncorrupted Genesis accounts—preserved pictorially in isolated China. Not ironclad proof, but extraordinarily suggestive of shared ancient truth.
