How tall are you?

[RND]

Depends on how many other people you want on it.

Rimshot pluuueazzzzzzzzze! Oh, that was bad JM!

1 Egyptian cubit is 1.5 ft.

1 Royal (Egyptian) cubit is 1.7 ft.

1 Hebrew cubit is 1.8 ft.

So he could be over 10 ft tall. Still not quite grasshopper-like when comparing normal 6' +/- man to him.

At a hebrew cubit then Goliath would have been over 11 foot tall!

1.8 X 6 = 10.8. Add a span of 8" and he could have been 11' 2".

Hi Chris,

The (secular/ordinary) Egyptian cubit is measured from the the elbow to end of the middle finger. It about 18 inches or 1.5 ft.

The sacred Hebrew cubit (apropos) is the secular cubit + a hand breath of about 4 inches.

Ezekiel 40:5 And behold a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits long by the cubit and an hand breadth: so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed.

Ezekiel 43:3 And these are the measures of the altar after the cubits: The cubit is a cubit and an hand breadth; even the bottom shall be a cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and the border thereof by the edge thereof round about shall be a span: and this shall be the higher place of the altar.

That makes the hebrew cubit = 18" + 4"= 22" or ~1.83'.

SOP confirms the measure in Patriarchs and Prophets:

"The tabernacle was so constructed that it could be taken apart and borne with the Israelites in all their journeyings. It was therefore small, being not more than fifty-five feet in length, and eighteen in breadth and height." --- PP 347

The sanctuary (1st + 2nd apartments) measures 30x10x10 cubits.

My first love and wife was almost 5'2". Folks used to call us Mut and Jeff. She was a little self conscious of her height and used to wear platform shoes to make her look taller. As a person she was a giant to me, what a gift of God and what a blessing.

God Bless
Jim Larmore

LOL!

Don't worry Annie. Weight was not something that was requested in the OP.

It was just information people started offering for some reason.

Should we qualify that though Andrew? Free weights or machines?

Free weights of course

Oh man, do we have to go there?

Let's just say that the weight-lifting scene is NOT for me. I tried it for a while, but it was just too embarrasing to be in a gym full of buffed steriod monkeys, grunting as I try to bench something they could lift with one hand. :o

I am taller than average, but I only weigh in at 150 lbs. I eat and eat and it's like it gets sucked into some vortex of metabolism! Nothing sticks! Someone recommended those protein shakes to get some bulk, but I passed.

My body type is naturally lean. Not skinny, just average I suppose. Slender. And while I do have some muscle definition and a faint six-pack, I am nowhere near cut like some of these guys I have seen who dedicate their very existence to the gym!

For example:

I am more into the cardio-vascular stuff. Jogging, treadmill, etc.

So, no, I will never be a Sylvester Stallone/Arnold Schwarzenegger body type and I am fine with that.

 

[NightEternal]

Now THAT'S what I call a bicep/tricep!

How would you like THIS guy to have you in a headlock?
