The ostrich in the Bible versus the Quran (1)
The ostrich is mentioned 10 times in the Bible.
The ostrich's behavior is mentioned in the Bible in the dialogue between God and Job.
In this dialogue the Lord God, the Almighty Creator describes the ostrich as:
She is joyfully proud of its small wings,
She is unmindful of the safety of its nest,
She treats her offspring harshly,
She is lacks in wisdom, she is stupid.
The ostrich's labor is not in vain
And yet she can put a horse to shame with its speed.
In addition, God described to Job how he created the ostrich with no good sense. versace sunglasses women ,
On the other hand, scientists say that the ostrich has good sense; with their acute eyesight and hearing, they can sense predators such as lions from far away.
The question is:? Would the Almighty Creator who creates the ostrich say that? Do these Biblical verses reflect a primitive, incorrect knowledge about the ostrich?
That is why the Quran says: Woe, to those who write the Scripture with their hands then say: This is from God
Nevertheless, the ostrich is not mentioned therein in the Quran. Yet, the Quran says that the birds in general live in societies like human beings.

?? The ostrich in the Bible (1)
Is the Bible mistaken about the ostrich?
The Bible says that the Lord God, the Almighty Creator, said unto Job that the ostrich is a stupid bird that lays its eggs on the ground, leaves them to be hatched by the heat of the sand, and then she treats her young harshly after they have hatched. mens designer sunglasses sale ,
In contrast, scientists describe the ostrich as a very caring parent. Laying eggs on the ground, rather than being a sign of neglect, is just something some birds normally do; and while the female may leave the nest, the male incubates the nest in her absence.
In the meantime, when the young hatch, they are given attentive care by their mother.
Therefore, the verses are in error from the scientific point of view.
Moreover, the ostrich's labor is not in vain.
It goes without saying that the Almighty Creator who creates the ostrich and knows very well everything about it would say that about the ostrich.

Job 39:13-18
New International Version
13 "The wings of the ostrich flap joyfully, but they cannot compare with the pinions and feathers of the stork.
14 She lays her eggs on the ground and lets them warm in the sand,
15 unmindful that a foot may crush them, that some wild animal may trample them.
16 She treats her young harshly, as if they were not hers; she cares not that her labor was in vain,
17 for God did not endow her with wisdom or give her a share of good sense. versace sunglasses for men ,
18 Yet when she spreads her feathers to run, she laughs at horse and rider.
American Standard Version
13 The wings of the ostrich wave proudly; but are they the pinions and plumage of love?
14 For she leaveth her eggs on the earth, and warmeth them in the dust,
15 And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, Or that the wild beast may trample them.
16 She dealeth hardly with her young ones, as if they were not hers: Though her labor be in vain, she is without fear;
17 Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted to her understanding.
18 What time she lifteth up herself on high, She scorneth the horse and his rider.
King James Version
13Gavest thou the goodly wings unto the peacocks? or wings and feathers unto the ostrich?
14Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust,
15And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them.
16She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not her's: her labour is in vain without fear;
17Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted to her understanding.
