The Science of Gen. 3:19 & Job 17:16

.....till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return......They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when our rest together is in the dust.
Genesis 3:19/Job 17:16

"Once they begin to decompose, human bodies contain bacteria and fungal decomposers that are actually pretty rare in the rest of the
world.


The
decomposition system pivots around the dead body as a resource and that's mainly for food......It might seem like a discomforting thought but these microbes are essential to the
natural world
, and they break down corpses to eventually become part of the “
decomposition ecosystem” and help with plant production.

Dr Devin Finaughty, who wasn’t involved in the study, spoke to IFLScience and said: “Decomposition is technically defined as the consumption of organic material by other organisms, [and is] distinct from physical degradation of organic remains by physical, erosive forces, like water."
