    That's the answer to the riddle, of course, but "the catch" is that the Bible doesn't actually call it a whale.
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

      Will by my death great light behold,
      1Cor 15:34 Come to your senses as you ought and stop sinning; for I say to your shame, there are some who know not God.

      taking it upon themselves to deprive you
      of the right to call yourself Christian.

              That's what I meant by it being a misnomer since the Hebrew text does not say whale but rather the equivalent of giant fish.

              I'm always still in trouble again

                      Unpossible - you're way too clever for that.

                            Depends on the version. For instance in the KJV:

                            Scripture Verse: Genesis 10:11

                            Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,

                            © Copyright Original Source



                            Asshur was a son of Shem and grandson of Noah. Nimrod was a son of Cush and a great-grandson of Noah.

                              Interesting: the WLC does indeed say Asshur, as does the LXX.

                                I was today years old when I learned that William Lane Craig was a biblical translation.
