When Prometheus stole fire from Zeus and gave it to men, there was a twofold punishment: 1) Prometheus was chained to the Caucasus mountains and 2) Pandora, the first woman, was created. If we use the creation of Pandora as a time reference, we might assume that she was created no later than 40,000 years ago.
On the great day of atonement the high priest carried the blood of the sacrifice he offered for all the people within the veil and sprinkled with it the mercy-seat, and so made propitiation. In 1 John 2:2; 4:10, Christ is called the propitiation for our sins.. Here a different Greek word is used (hilasmos). Christ is the propitiation, because by his becoming our substitute and assuming our obligations he expiated our guilt, covered it, by the vicarious punishment which he endured.
