I am looking for an answer to a riddle. there is a lot more to the riddle than a five letter word mentioned 4 times in the king James versions. The word whale would fit migth fit.

Daniel-You are correct. The New KJV uses “monster” but the old KJV used “whale”. Sarah points out that the soul was that of Jonah whom the fish swallowed and then spit out. Thank you all for participating. Being a computer programmer myself, I was challenged to keep an open mind. The Genesis passage contained the five letter word hidden within the six letter word “whales”.

Sarah-in Ezekiel it doesnt say “whale” it says “monster” and the kjv doesnt say anything about its soul being taken away or given or anything of the sort

Quoted from Visitor: 27 June, 2007 12:39 pm
“The Bible does not mention a whale in Jonah’s story (or at all). Just says “a great fish”… neither does it say it was an Apple that Adam and Eve ate at the Garden. Very interesting nontheless…”

Actually the Bible does mention the word whale in the King James Version. But in the story of Jonah, it is called a big fish. The word whale is mentioned in Gen. 1:21, Job 7:12, Eze. 32:2 and Matt. 12:40. And Matthew is the one that mentions the story of Jonah. “For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly…” So if you are using the KJV of the Bible, then the word whale is mentioned and is very much the answer to the riddle that apparently started this whole thread.

Don't know if you are interestedin finding the word or an answer to a riddle.

The whale had no soul but was given a soul in the form of Janah which it swallowed. Then Joanh was taken from the whale.

I am surprised that you didn't return some thing like "Paste", "Chart", "Table" and "Query". This is my preferred Good Book by King John W.

(ok I am sure they appear far more in your book)
