Āl ʿImrān [1] is the third chapter (surah) of the Quran with two hundred verses (ayat).
Al Baqara is the 2nd chapter of the Quran...
The first chapter is Al Fathiah, or The Opener.
Aram is a son of Shem, according to the Table of Nations in Genesis 10 of the Hebrew Bible, and the father of Uz, Hul, Gether and Mash or Meshech.[1] The Book of Chronicles lists Aram, Uz, Hul, Gether, and Meshech as descendants of Shem, although without stating explicitly that Aram is the father of the other four.[2]
Aram is usually regarded as being the eponymous ancestor of the Aramean people of Northern Mesopotamia and Syria.

The children of Shem were Elam, Ashur, Arphaxad, Lud and Aram, in addition to daughters.

Upper Mesopotamia is the heartland of ancient Assyria, founded circa the 25th century BC. From the late 24th Century BC it was part of the Akkadian Empire
The region fell to the Assyrians' southern brethren, the Babylonians in 605 BC, and from 539 BC it became part of the Achaemenid Empire; Achaemenid Assyria was known as Athura.
Sargon of Akkad, also known as Sargon the Great,[4] was the first ruler of the Akkadian Empire, known for his conquests of the Sumerian city-states in the 24th to 23rd centuries BC.[3]
He was the founder of the "Sargonic" or "Old Akkadian" dynasty, which ruled for about a century after his death until the Gutian conquest of Sumer.[5] The Sumerian king list makes him the cup-bearer to king Ur-Zababa of Kish.[6] His empire is thought to have included most of Mesopotamia, parts of the Levant, besides incursions into Hurrite and Elamite territory, ruling from his (archaeologically as yet unidentified) capital, Akkad (also Agade).
Sargon appears as a legendary figure in Neo-Assyrian literature of the 8th to 7th centuries BC. Tablets with fragments of a Sargon Birth Legend were found in the Library of Ashurbanipal.
*wiki Sargon of Akkad
Hammurabi[a] (c. 1810 – c. 1750 BC) was the sixth king of the First Babylonian dynasty, reigning from c. 1792 BC to c. 1750 BC (according to the Middle Chronology). He was preceded by his father, Sin-Muballit, who abdicated due to failing health. During his reign, he conquered Elam and the city-states of Larsa, Eshnunna, and Mari. He ousted Ishme-Dagan I, the king of Assyria, and forced his son Mut-Ashkur to pay tribute, bringing almost all of Mesopotamia under Babylonian rule.

What am I trying to say?
Al Imran has its Scripture(s) beginning from the family of Aram, the son of Shem.. (i think)
Hence:
The Opening (Noah and the opening of the Ark door on the dried Earth)
The Cow (Flesh of animals are now, for the first time, made permissible to eat as food)
Al Imran (The Children)
Genesis 8:14-19 "And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried. And God spake unto Noah, saying, Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee. Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth. And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him: Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, and whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth out of the ark."
the creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.... breed .... in.... the earth...
of fowl and of cattle.... be fruitful, and multiply.... upon.... the earth...
of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth
of all flesh, both of fowl, and of cattle that they may be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.
And it was from this 'eating of the flesh of animals' that animal sacrifice(s) began..... which eventually was 'done away with' with the New Covenant...
Question.... Could The LORD and God have used 'animal sacrifice/blood', for specific purposes and reasons, knowing how abundant those of fowls and those of cattle were 'becoming' on the earth?
The Daily Sacrifice
Now that we know something about the types of sacrifices and the various rituals employed, let us consider the times at which these sacrifices were offered and the number of animals involved. The most well known sacrifice was the daily sacrifice. This sacrifice, as its name implies, was offered every day. One lamb was killed in the morning and another in the evening. The daily sacrifice is also called the 'continual burnt offering.'
Numbers 28: 3: And thou shalt say unto them, This is the offering made by fire which ye shall offer unto the LORD; two lambs of the first year without spot day by day, for a continual burnt offering.
4: The one lamb shalt thou offer in the morning, and the other lamb shalt thou offer at even;
5: And a tenth part of an ephah of flour for a meat offering, mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil.
6: It is a continual burnt offering, which was ordained in mount Sinai for a sweet savour, a sacrifice made by fire unto the LORD.
7: And the drink offering thereof shall be the fourth part of an hin for the one lamb: in the holy place shalt thou cause the strong wine to be poured unto the LORD for a drink offering.
8: And the other lamb shalt thou offer at even: as the meat offering of the morning, and as the drink offering thereof, thou shalt offer it, a sacrifice made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
This meant that in the course of a 12 lunar month year (some 354 days) a total of approximately 708 lambs (354 x 2) were sacrificed.

To think that this was a high 'number' is small when one compares it to:
By the middle of the 19th century, in the course of a single year 220,000 head of cattle and 1,500,000 sheep would be "violently forced into an area of five acres, in the very heart of London, through its narrowest and most crowded thoroughfares
As the meat requirements of the growing number of residents in London steadily expanded, the meat markets both within the city and beyond attracted increasing levels of public disapproval. Meat had been traded at Smithfield Market as early as the 10th century. By 1726, it was regarded as "without question, the greatest in the world", by Daniel Defoe.
In a 2018 study in the Italian Journal of Food Safety, slaughterhouse workers are instructed to wear ear protectors to protect their hearing from the constant screams of animals being killed.
The worst thing, worse than the physical danger, is the emotional toll. If you work in the stick pit [where hogs are killed] for any period of time—that let’s [sic] you kill things but doesn’t let you care. You may look a hog in the eye that’s walking around in the blood pit with you and think, ‘God, that really isn’t a bad looking animal.’ You may want to pet it. Pigs down on the kill floor have come up to nuzzle me like a puppy. Two minutes later I had to kill them - beat them to death with a pipe. I can’t care.
A 2009 study by criminologist Amy Fitzgerald indicates, "slaughterhouse employment increases total arrest rates, arrests for violent crimes, arrests for rape, and arrests for other sex offenses in comparison with other industries."[37] As authors from the PTSD Journal explain, "These employees are hired to kill animals, such as pigs and cows that are largely gentle creatures. Carrying out this action requires workers to disconnect from what they are doing and from the creature standing before them. This emotional dissonance can lead to consequences such as domestic violence, social withdrawal, anxiety, drug and alcohol abuse, and PTSD."
Slaughterhouses in the United States commonly illegally employ and exploit underage workers and illegal immigrants.[39][40] In 2010, Human Rights Watch described slaughterhouse line work in the United States as a human rights crime.
The HFA alleges that workers are required to kill up to 1,100 hogs an hour and end up taking their frustration out on the animals.[45] Eisnitz interviewed one worker, who had worked in ten slaughterhouses, about pig production.

1,100 hogs an hour to an 8 hour work day at 5 days a week...
or, 1,100 X 8 X 5 = 44,000 per day.....
So, 708 lambs per year
versus
44,000 hogs per day...
And I think that there are more than 1 'slaugtering house(s)' that could need to meet the requirements also...

I understand that there are many individuals who are not 'caught' up in Faith based ideas and doctrines.. But I also know that there are many 'cultures', entire cultures, that are... And I ask those cultures who say they are 'faithful' or who express their own confession to the importance of a strong faith kept life if they truly believe everything they are 'handed'? In other words, although they might not be 'vegetarians', per se, and although they are conscientious to life, do they 'blindly' believe that the 'meats' they purchase from the stores ACTUALLY come from 'trustworthy' places and sources? Do they believe that everyone on Earth has a heart and mind and spirit to care about other lives as they, although not 'vegetarian', per se??
So where in The Holy Scriptures might this be warned against by The Loving Heavenly Father and by The Loving Holy God?
Psalm 146:3 "Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help."
what does 'in whom there is no help' mean?

Do we actually admit that we 'believe' that just because the person is 'loved of' by The Love of God through Christ Messiah, The Only Begotten Son of The Heavenly Father, that they have this 'salvation' within them so as to be trustworthy?? Is that what we imply when we look out into public places and feel as if they are as 'family' to accept and condone and assimilate with and to?
Now if we, as adults, let us assume, have this 'knowledge', and knowledge is that which would either help our own selves 'to fall' or 'to not fall', Hosea 4:6 being the reference, what might the younger ones who do not have this knowledge be in any 'danger' of??
"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children." - Hosea 4:6
Or again, is our assumption towards youth as though they 'can do no wrong'?? That they all have loving and caring parents? That they all live in similar home conditions as yours? That their home lives must be similar?
Has your school child, whether in grade school or high school or even college, brought 'home' a 'friend' into your home? What was the 'assumption' towards that 'friend' that was brought into your home? And surely even when certain items 'disappeared' all by itself, so it seems, those assumptions never were seen as the culprits, right?
Yet when your child goes to 'their' home, although maybe 'higher in class' or maybe even 'lower', your child seems to always be home at the right time, always seems to bring the requested materials, always seems to be the 'same child' that was always similarily obedient as always, which again has that assumption be in the minds that all other children must be similar to your own...
The verse says to not put trust.. it does not say to keep a rifle loaded and pointed...
here is another way:
If the just shall live by faith; 'just' - being 'lawful' to community set/established Laws, such as speed limits, parking rules, no trespassing rules, etc... if those lawful persons shall live by 'faith' and not [only] by sight; those that demand a 'sign' as those who do not have 'salvation' in their lives, then can those without 'salvation' in their lives be considered to be 'lawful' to Community Established Laws, such as speed limits, parking rules, no trespassing rules, etc???
