Meteorology – The atmosphere and its phenomena and especially with weather and weather forecasting.
1 Kings 8:35-36 To Job 38:1-2.
A lot of people like snow. I find it to be an unnecessary freezing of water. (Carl Reiner)
As I began the process of researching, writing and putting together SURTSMeteorology, I realized that there were dozens of bible verses that someway…somehow…mentions directly or indirectly, items that qualify under the scientific study of meteorology.
Are there bible verses relating to biology in 1 Kings 8:35-36 To Job 38:1-2 that I may have missed? Maybe. What I did discover while putting this section of SURTSScience – Meteorology together is the fact that the Holy Bible has plenty to say about the science of meteorology. In fact, there are so many bible verses relating to the study of meteorology, SURTSMeteorology had to be divided up into 6 sections:
Genesis 7:12 To 2 Samuel 21:1;
1 Kings 8:35-36 To Job 38:1-2;
Job 38:22-23 To Ecclesiastes 11:3-4;
Haggai 1:11 To Acts 27:11-15 and;
Acts 27:16-10 To Revelation 16:21
For this section of SURTSMeteorology…1 Kings 8:35-36 To Job 38:1-2, I would ask that you consider the following…
For a book that is not intended to be a book on science, let alone meteorology, it is quite amazing, not only on the amount of science that is in there, but the validity of the references regarding meteorology, that are in there.
Based on the evidence presented, I would submit to you there is absolutely nowhere in the Bible where the meteorology topics are unfounded. I would also submit to you that there is nowhere in the Bible where any scientific discovery since the Bible was put together, has yet to be proven false, regarding meteorology.
What is truly amazing is the fact that many of the facts above were already in the Bible before man and his science…and meteorology, ‘discovered’ them. In multiple cases, by hundreds or thousands of years.
What other religious book has this record?
The point is this:
While the Holy Bible is of course a religious book first and foremost, clearly, it is much more than that.

While the Holy Bible is of course a religious themed book first and foremost, clearly, it is much more than that.
I would submit to you that in regards to the Holy Bible and the scientific field of meteorology…
The reliability is more than coincidence.
