Van Dyck, watercolor, Jacob wrestling with the angel (17 cent.). Depicting the circumstances and mechanism of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) injury based on the description in the Book of Genesis:

25 And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.
26 And when he saw that he could not prevail against him, he struck against the hollow of his thigh ; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was put out of joint, as he was wrestling with him.
33 Therefore do the children of Israel not eat the sinew which shrank, which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day; because he struck against the hollow of Jacob's thigh on the sinew that shrank. (1922LeeserI, Genesis (Bereshit) 32:25-26,33)

Human Children. Retelling of Chapter 11

  Short retelling of chapter 11 of the essay: Arkhipov S.V. Human Children: The Origins of Biblical Legends from a Physician's Perspective. Joensuu: Author's Edition, 2025. [In Russian]  Chapter 11. ARARAT AND AKKAD According to Genesis, Noah’s ark comes to rest "in the mountains of Ararat." It is possible that Noah settles there after his miraculous survival. Initially, he lives in a tent, cultivates fields, grows grapes, and makes wine. The text states that from Noah’s sons, "the whole earth was repopulated." They disembark with "every animal, every creeping thing, every bird, everything that moves on the earth," giving rise to today’s diversity of terrestrial vertebrates—mammals, reptiles, and birds at minimum. However, no mention is made of other non-aquatic creatures like worms, mollusks, or arthropods, most of which likely perished in the floodwaters. At some point, Noah’s descendants migrate, though the origin and trigger for this movement a...
