Be comforted, dear soul, there is always light behind clouds. (Louisa May Alcott)
Thinking about the musings from Day 144: The Holy Bible And Meteorology – 1 Kings To Job.…
I would submit to you that once you understand what the definition of meteorology 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 142: The Holy Bible And Meteorology – Genesis To Exodus., 15 bible verses were covered that are contained in the books Genesis to Exodus.
In Day 143: The Holy Bible And Meteorology – Exodus To 2 Samuel., 14 bible verses were covered that are contained in the books Exodus to 2 Samuel.
In Day 144: The Holy Bible And Meteorology – 1 Kings To Job., 15 bible verses were covered that are contained in the books 1 Kings to Job.
So now, let us continue with 15 more bible verses that contain the following concept relating to the scientific study of meteorology, that can be found in the books of Job to…Job:
1. Job 36:32 KJV:
32 With clouds he covereth the light; and commandeth it not to shine by the cloud that cometh betwixt.
2. Job 37:3 KJV:

3. Job 37:6-7 KJV:

5. Job 37:12-14 KJV:
12 And it is turned round about by his counsels: that they may do whatsoever he commandeth them upon the face of the world in the earth. 13 He causeth it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy. 14 Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.

22 Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail, 23 Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?
And there you have it.
15 sets of bible verses found in Job To…Job, whose focus can be considered under the scientific branch of meteorology.
While I would submit to you that these 15 bible verses help one to understand that there is a strong connection between the Holy Bible and the scientific branch of meteorology, it is possible that you may not be convinced of any connection….
Yet.
So, what are the next set of bible verses relating to the scientific field of meteorology?
That question will be answered next time.
Do not feel discouraged if you do not see a connection with the 15 sets of verses from today from the Holy Bible that relate to the scientific field of meteorology. 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 these verses, you are continuing the process of learning about the relationship between the scientific field of meteorology and the Holy Bible…perhaps without even realizing it.
22 Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail, 23 Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war? (Job 38:22-23 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 145: The Holy Bible And Meteorology – Job To…Job.
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:
