Everest? Don’t forget it’s really just a big pile of rocks. (David Breashears)
Thinking about the musings from Day 136: The Holy Bible And Geology – Psalms To Peter.…
I would submit to you that once you understand what the definition of geology is, it is easy to spot references to this scientific field in the Holy Bible. I would further submit to you that once you recognize what to look for, these references are bountiful indeed.
In Day 135: The Holy Bible And Geology – Genesis To Job., 14 bible verses were covered that are contained in the books Genesis to Job.
In Day 136: The Holy Bible And Geology – Psalms To Peter., 23 bible verses were covered that are contained in the books Psalms to Peter.
So now, let us continue on with 19 more bible verses that contain the following concept relating to the scientific study of geology, and in this case, specifically relating to rocks, that can be found in the books of Exodus to Psalms:
1. Exodus 17:6 KJV:
6 Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
2. Leviticus 26:1-4 KJV:
1 Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the Lord your God. 2 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the Lord. 3 If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them; 4 Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
3. Deuteronomy 32:4 KJV:
4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.

2 The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

10. Psalm 18:46 KJV:

11. Psalm 28:1 KJV:
1 Unto thee will I cry, O Lord my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.

15. Psalm 95:1 KJV:
1 O come, let us sing unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.
And there you have it.
19 more bible verses, whose focus can be considered under the scientific branch of geology.
While I would submit to you that these 19 bible verses help one to understand that there is a strong connection between the Holy Bible and the scientific branch of geology, it is possible that you still may not be convinced of any connection.
So, what are the next set of bible verses relating to the scientific field of geology?
That question will be answered next time.
Do not feel discouraged if you do not see a connection with the 19 sets of verses from today from the Holy Bible that relate to the scientific field of geology. Do not feel discouraged if you are still unsure that the verses contained in these bible verses contain any scientific relevance at all. Instead, understand that after you have read this these verses, you are continuing the process of learning about the relationship between the scientific field of geology and the Holy Bible…perhaps without even realizing it.
1 O come, let us sing unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. (Psalm 95:1 KJV)
Was today’s blog a little confusing at times? Was the content perhaps a little overwhelming? Did you feel lost not understanding some or most of the subject matter?
Those feelings are totally understandable and it is ok to have one or more of those feelings. Remember that you are reading Day 137: The Holy Bible And Geology – Just The Rocks – Exodus To Psalms.
If you haven’t been in class since the first day of school…or when the project began…or when the contract was first signed, etc., these feelings make perfect and logistical sense.
Please feel free to go back to where all of this began:
