    I should have been clearer. Allen was using the Greek part of the Bible to
    argue that the Hebrew part of the Bible required a global flood. THat is
    why I pointed out that Greek was different from HEbrew meaning that one
    can't use Greek to argue what the Hebrew means. Obviously I didn't do a
    good job.
