However, last year “peak drive-in” occurred in the run-up to Christmas. Eventbrite registered close to 50,000 people attending about 1,000 drive-in events during that period. That mark is likely to be surpassed in the coming months as a combination of warmer weather and continued restrictions on many other activities fuel the popularity of drive-in cinema. From May 17, competition in the events sector will greatly increase as cinemas reopen under the next stage of the govern- ment’s lifting of restrictions. The first wave of listings of events permitted from next week are mostly drive-in cinema, with some church services. However, data from last year shows that just over a fifth of drive-in events were film screenings, as the pub- lic embraced a wide range of entertainment options from the comfort of their KHALED DESOUKI/AFP vehicles.

  • In Search of Noah's Ark
    IN SEARCH OF NOAH'S ARK History does not care how events happen, it just takes the side of those who do great things and achieve great goals. At the time of writing, this scientific work I was guided by the only desire to enrich our history, to fill the gaps in it, to make it more open to understanding others, but not in any way to harm the established historical order in it. The constant desire to find God, to explain the inexplicable, the deification of the forces of nature, the desire to comprehend the incomprehensible at all times inherent in man. Studying the world around us, people learn more and more new things, and as a result of this there is a need to preserve and transmit information, whether it is in visual form, written or verbal in legends or myths. For example, in religious texts. "Noah did everything God commanded him to do. Upon completion of the construction, God told Noah to enter the ark with his sons and wife, and with the wives of his sons, and to bring also into the ark of all the animals in pairs, that they might live. And take for yourself of all food which is necessary themselves and for animals. Then the ark was shut down by God. Seven days later (in the second month, the seventeenth [27th-according to the translation of the Septuagint] day) the rain poured out on the earth, and the flood lasted forty days and forty nights, and the water multiplied, and lifted up the ark, and it rose above the earth and floated on the surface of the waters.

  • The Geography of Genesis 8:4
    JOURNAL OF CREATION 30(1) 2016 || VIEWPOINT The Geography of Genesis 8:4 Bill Crouse The author of Genesis informs us that the Ark of Noah landed “in the mountains of Ararat”. While this is a general area, it refers to a real location. The key to pinpointing this geographic area is to ask where would the original readers of Genesis have understood it to have been. Geographical and historical studies lead us to conclude that the writer was referring to the mountainous region to the south of Lake Van and north of the historic kingdom of Assyria. It therefore cannot refer to the singular Mt Ararat in north-eastern Turkey as is commonly presumed. n Genesis 8:4 the Bible not only gives us a precise date the name of a unified state which covered a much Ifor the landing of the Ark but an actual geographic locale larger expanse.” 5 for its final berth.1 Given this attention to detail, it would Piotrovsky also believes that it is an Assyrian word.

[email protected] Abstract Armenian consider Mount Ararat mother of Armenia. The Armenian history has had deep links with this mountain from the beginning. All of Armenian myths somehow link to the mountain, and Armenian ethnic identity is defined by Ararat. Ararat is considered as symbol of two foldness of Great Armenia and pattern of reattachment of the nation's pieces. In Armenians opinion, Ararat has passed a trade from nature to t myth, from myth to culture, and from cul- ture to landscape. Its status as Armenian's most distinctive element of the natural landscape is the result of Armenians subjective selection of nature, which has been promoted to a cultural element by the association with Armenian culture and mythology. Plus Ararat has had a unique role in formation of Armenian land- scape fabric, as the most important ritual (churches in slopes of Ararat) and residential landscapes (Yerevan city) were established directly by the identified impact of Mount Ararat. In the urban landscape, Mount Ararat appears frequently in the viewpoint, urban graphic and street art; this repeated apparent which is more obvious about Ararat than any other element in the environment, suggests that the mountain has still a centralized role in cultural landscape, as it has retained its unifying role in natural landscape as well.
