*Interesting thing about this rendition is how inaccurate it is, both in not showing the larger number of kosher animals and in showing a lion preying on a horse. That would have eliminated the horse species. If the carnivores would have been allowed meat upon disembarking, they would have been limited to the kosher animals that had more spares.

Related to what I wrote last week, http://kallahmagazine.blogspot.com/2019/10/creation-and-climate-change.html, I recall once seeing an interpretation of the intent in building the Migdal Bavel was to thwart another flood. The people thought they could build something that could control nature, setting up some kind of support against the clouds that bring the rains that flood before it would happen again. As it turned out, they were thwarted in their design.
