In preparing for Sunday's Sermon, it won't surprise you that I do Biblical Research on the passage or passages I am dealing with. The main passage we are looking at this Sunday is Genesis 10:6-12, that talks about the founding of Nineveh.
The founder of Nineveh according to the Bible is Nimrod, who is mentioned in this passage as well as others in the OT. But who exactly is Nimrod?
That took me through lots and lots of reading yesterday. The Anchor Bible Dictionary as well as commentaries were helpful. The most colorful article on Nimrod was at Wikipedia. Check it out. So who you think Nimrod is?
