At dinner we got on the topic of the Adam's apple. I wondered how it got it's name. I knew it was a bump in a boys throat. But after my mom made me look it up I found out that it is a little bulging spot in human male's neck. It's really larynx that took a growing spurt during puberty.
Interesting it gets it's name from the bible. You know the story of Adam and Eve.
Well a tale is told that that when Adam tried to eat the apple that snake offered him, it got stuck in his throat and staid there as punishment for his sin. Although why it was inherited to his children, beats me.
Thanks Adam!

Something that nonjews should think about:
Yirmiyahu (Jeremiah) 16:19-20"To You the nations will come from the distant parts of the land" and they will confess, 'Our ancestors inherited falsehood, futility that has no purpose. Can a man make a god? The man not being a god?'"... Read More
The Jewish nation that has kept Torah (G-d's commandments) throughout time are not the ones that will go to other nations to say we have inheirted falsehood. No friends, it is the nations that have inherited falsehood.
Yeshayahu (Isaiah) 40:18
"To whom can you liken God? Or what likeness can you compare to him?"
Yeshayahu (Isaiah) 42:8
"I am G-d; that is My Name. I will not grant My honor to anyone else or My glory to idols."
Yeshayahu (Isaiah) 43:10
"You are My witnesses," says G-d, "and My servant whom I chose," in order that you know and believe Me, and understand that I am He; before Me no god was formed and after Me none shall be."
Yeshayahu (Isaiah) 43:11" I am G-d, I alone. There is no Savior besides Me."
Yeshayahu (Isaiah) 45:5
"Thus says G-d, the King of Israel and its Redeemer, the L-rd of Hosts, "I am the first and I am the last, and there is no god besides Me."
Yeshayahu (Isaiah) 45:22
"Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth, for I am G-d, and there is no other."
Yeshayahu (Isaiah) 46:5
"To whom can you liken Me and whom can you declare My equal? To what can you compare Me that we should seem similar?"
Once again: those that have ears - hear. Yirmiyahu (Jeremiah) 16:19-20"To You the nations will come from the distant parts of the land" and they will confess, 'Our ancestors inherited falsehood, futility that has no purpose. Can a man make a god? The man not being a god?'"
The Jewish nation that has kept Torah (G-d's commandments) throughout time are not the ones that will go to other nations to say we have inheirted falsehood. No friends, it is the nations that have inherited falsehood. Please repent before the Holy One - Blessed be He - says your time on earth is over. Come learn from the nation that G-d said would be "the light to the nations."
