GOD, THE CHICKEN AND THE EGG
by Monty Gilmer
Someone once said, "The chicken probably came before the egg because it is hard to imagine God wanting to sit on an egg."
According to the Bible, the chicken (a "winged fowl" that is flightless) did come before the egg. Genesis 1:20-23 (King James Version) reads: "And God said, 'Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.' And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, 'Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.' And the evening and the morning were the fifth day."
