The Black Sea is mentioned in the Bible in several places, most notably in the book of Jonah. In Jonah 1:3, Jonah is commanded by God to go to the city of Nineveh, which is located on the bank of the Black Sea. Jonah 2:2-3 also mentions the Black Sea as the place where Jonah was thrown overboard by the sailors. The Black Sea is also mentioned in other books of the Bible, such as Ezekiel 27:12-14 and 32:17-32.<\/p>\n

The Black Sea is first mentioned in the Bible in the book of Genesis, when Noah’s Ark came to rest on its shores after the great flood. It is also mentioned in the book of Ezekiel, when the prophet describes a great battle that will take place there in the last days.<\/p>\n

Why do they call the Black Sea? <\/h2>\n

The Black Sea is so named because of the high concentration of hydrogen sulfide in the water, which turns objects that sink below 150 meters black over time. This hypothesis is supported by the fact that many objects found in the Black Sea are blackened, including shipwrecks and dead plants and animals.<\/p>\n

When sea levels were lower 10,000 years ago, the Black Sea was a large freshwater Black Lake. The Black Sea is now a saltwater sea, but it was once a freshwater lake.<\/p>\n
