Scoffers like to take one idea or even one word from the Bible and show how it makes no sense. They therefore think they have a case to discount the entire Bible.
One such word they’ve used is “unicorn”.
Unicorns are mentioned 9 times in the Bible[1], "So it must be a fantasy book" they claim. Here is a video that someone made that may shed some light on the darkness of some people's mind…
Today we may think that a unicorn is a mythical animal that looks like a horse with one horn. But what did it mean originally?
According to 1828 edition of Webster's American Dictionary of the English Language:
- unicorn U'NICORN, n. [L. unicornis; unus, one, and cornu, horn. ]1. an animal with one horn; the monoceros. this name is often applied to the rhinoceros.
- unicornous UNICORN'OUS, a. Having only one horn.
The elasmotherium is an extinct giant rhinoceros with a 33-inch-long skull. It has has a huge bony protuberance on the frontal bone consistent with the support structure for a massive horn.
Archaeologist Austen Henry Layard sketched a single-horned creature from an obelisk with two-horned bovine animals in his 1849 book Nineveh and Its Remains identifying it as a one horned Indian rhinoceros.
Note: There are many other words that have changed definitions which need to be restored for a true understanding of the Gospel of the Kingdom. Words like religion and “faith”.
