The Globe

[Phil G]

I have agreed to nothing, you asked me questions to what I answed 'Yes'.

That's the definition of agreement - saying yes!

 

[Apple Sky]

Is symbolic language in the Bible and not written to defy fact. In your interpretation you call God ignorant of His own creation.

Well Genesis 1 is not symbolic.

 

[Apple Sky]

That's the definition of agreement - saying yes!

 

[Phil G]

No need to roll your eyes. You agreed and now you contradict yourself.

If the Hebrew word for 'firmament' can mean 'expanse', which you agreed to, then it does not necessarily mean something solid.

And if the Hebrew word for 'light' can mean 'luminary', which you agreed to, then it does not necessarily mean something self-luminous.

 

[Apple Sky]

No need to roll your eyes. You agreed and now you contradict yourself.

I agreed to nothing.

 

[Phil G]

I agreed to nothing.

You did.

If the Hebrew word for 'firmament' can mean 'expanse', which you agreed to by saying yes to my question, then it does not necessarily mean something solid.

And if the Hebrew word for 'light' can mean 'luminary', which you agreed to by saying yes to my question, then it does not necessarily mean something self-luminous.

 

[Apple Sky]

You did.

No I didn't

If the Hebrew word for 'firmament' can mean 'expanse', which you agreed to, then it does not necessarily mean something solid

I agreed to the word expanse as this is also mentioned in other Bibles.

And if the Hebrew word for 'light' can mean 'luminary', which you agreed to, then it does not necessarily mean something self-luminous.

I said yes to this as this is what the sun & the moon are.
But I will never agree that the firmament is not solid or that the moon does not give off her own light.

 

[Phil G]

I agreed to the word expanse as this is also mentioned in other Bibles.



I said yes to this as this is what the sun & the moon are.
But I will never agree that the firmament is not solid or that the moon does not give off her own light.

But you are completely contradicting yourself. The word 'expanse' means something which is not necessarily solid. It cannot be pinned down to only something which is solid. So the Bible does not affirm the 'expanse' or 'firmament' to be solid. If you insist it does, then you are adding to what the Bible actually says.

And saying the sun and moon are 'luminaries' means the neither is necessarily self luminous, simply because a luminary can be an object that reflects light. It does not have such a narrow meaning as only something which is self-luminous. And again, if you insist it does, then you are adding to what the Bible actually says. It does not affirm what you claim.

 

[Apple Sky]

And saying the sun and moon are 'luminaries' means the neither is necessarily self luminous, simply because a luminary can be an object that reflects light.

We know that the moon gives her own light.

King James Bible
Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

 

[Phil G]

We know that the moon gives her own light.

King James Bible
Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

"Her light" does not mean self-luminous. The Bible describes the moon as a 'luminary'. A 'luminary' can be either self-luminous or not. Therefore there is nothing in Scripture which defines the moon as self-luminous.

 

[Hentenza]

Well Genesis 1 is not symbolic.

The verses you are using are symbolic or simply observational because fact is fact. You should not say that God said something that is not true.

 

[Hentenza]

We know that the moon gives her own light.

King James Bible
Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

The sun is darken and the moon won’t give her light (light that she reflects from the sun because the sun is darken). See it’s perfectly biblical.

 

[prodromos]

Not in the Bible it's not.

Not in your interpretation of the Bible.

 

[prodromos]

We know that the moon gives her own light.

King James Bible
Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

Her light is that which she reflects from the sun.
