The Hebrew word Rephaim has two distinct meanings: first, in poetic literature it refers to departed spirits whose dwelling place was Sheol. It is a figurative description of the dead, similar to our concept of a ghost. The second meaning of Rephaim is a mighty people with tall stature who lived in Canaan.The word doesn t seem to be ethno-centric like Jew or Egyptian but is more of a descriptive term. This second meaning will be the focus of this article.The first reference to the Rephaim is Genesis 14:5, when the Rephaim, Zuzim and Emim people were defeated in a battle with Kedorlaomer and his allies.euteronomy 2:20â21 says the Rephaim were strong and tall, like the Anakites. Og, king of Bashan, was described as the last of the Rephaim in his land (Deuteronomy 3:11), and his bed was thirteen feet long and six feet wide.
On the belly you will see the umbilical cord which connected the fetal pig to its mother's placenta. On either side of the umbilical cord you may see mammary papillae, little nipples that will turn into teats in female pigs.
This is because the mother (the placenta) is doing the work that the babyâs lungs will do after birth. The placenta accepts the bluest blood (blood without oxygen) from the fetus through blood vessels that leave the fetus through the umbilical cord (umbilical arteries, there are two of them).When blood goes through the placenta it picks up oxygen and becomes red.The red blood then returns to the fetus via the third vessel in the umbilical cord (umbilical vein). The red blood that enters the fetus passes through the fetal liver and enters the right side of the heart.he ductus arteriosus sends the bluer blood to the organs in the lower half of the fetal body. This also allows for the bluest blood to leave the fetus through the umbilical arteries and get back to the placenta to pick up oxygen.
