Scientists Have Finally Solved An Ancient Biblical Mystery
~1.0 mins read
n the Bible’s Book of Exodus, we are transported back to ancient Egypt. After the Pharaoh refuses God’s commandment to free the Hebrews from his rule, the all-powerful being in the heavens decides a wave of divine vengeance is needed.
First came a river of blood. Then a waves of frogs, lice, and wild animals. A deadly illness killed domestic animals. Boils affected all the Egyptians. Hail rained down. Soon after, came the arguably the most destructive affliction.
A horde of locusts damaged the land. Herbs, fruit, and all the green of plants and trees were devoured. These infestations don’t only occur in the biblical times, however. To this day, the insects continue to target parts of the world.
Scientists have looked for patterns that could explain why these locust swarms occur. As dangerous as they were thousands of years ago, the insects are still a major problem for farmers.
Researchers believe the species of locusts that took flight back in ancient Egypt were possibly the Schistocerca gregaria, or the desert locust. It closely resembles a grasshopper, but there is a major difference.
Locusts can travel for miles, plus they can fly. Grasshoppers only jump. And grasshoppers don’t have another key ability. Locusts can remain independent or congregate into a “gregarious state,†otherwise known as their swarm method.
