Bome translations appear to state that the eagle/vulture does carry its young on its wings but other translations make it clear that it is God that is doing this and not necessarily an eagle/vulture in the wild: | |||
:''You saw what I did to the Egyptians, and how I lifted you up on eagles’ wings and brought you to me.<ref>Common English Bible (Nashville, TN: Common English Bible, 2011), Ex 19:4.</ref> | |||
:''Like an eagle protecting its nest, hovering over its young, God spread out his wings, took hold of Israel, carried him on his back. <ref>Common English Bible (Nashville, TN: Common English Bible, 2011), Dt 32:11.</ref> | |||
God carried Israel on his back. This statement does not mean that an eagle in the wild carries its young on its back. As indicated above, this has never been scientifically attested to. The Bible is clearly not stating this. | |||
