Christian How Could A Christian Justify The Bible Saying That The Earth Is Flat?

How could a Christian justify the Bible saying that the earth is flat? - christian

I am a fairly new Christian, but I've never seen it before:

The Bible does not say explicitly that "the earth is flat", but is involved in several places. It is often suggested that the Earth is round, or a ball, etc.

So if the Bible is the Word of God as a Christian can justify what the Bible is in our country too shallow, when God created the earth?

Certainly must know that God created the earth is round, it must be said in the Bible?

The Bible says that the earth is spherical, but the ball is not a word in ancient Hebrew that the Old Testament was written, "is the ball" using the terminology that could be revealed by God at that time.

Let me say that in Isaiah 40:22, the Hebrew word for circle is chugging "and their resistance is the translation can" start code "

H2329
חוּג
Chuy
khoog
The H2328 is a circle - circle, circuit, compassion

Even the Hebrew word in Isaiah 22:18 could be used would have meant circle of English translators decided to just "ball use is" a clear definition of the Hebrew word used ambiguously

H1754
דּוּר
Hard
ment
In H1752, circle, ball or pile: - ball to.


Other respondents questioned the use of poetic language from the "four corners" of the earth, wants, etc., so I do not speak, but please take a look at Job 26:10.

It is the Bible in 7 different versions:

Contemporary English Version: Job 26:10 The surface of the sea, found that God is a line of demarcation between light and darkness.

English Standard Version: Job 26:10-circle was on the face of the water at the border between light and darkness filled.

Good News Bible: Job 26:10 He separated light from darkness drawn by a circle on the front of the sea

King James Version: Job 26:10 He is surrounded by waters with bounds until day and night to go over.

Modern King James Version: Job 26:10 He described a circle on the surface of the water at the boundary between light and darkness.

Literal translation of the Bible: Job 26:10 He described a circle on the surface of the water at the boundary between light and darkness.

New Revised Standard Version: Job 26:10 He described a circle on the surface of the water at the boundary between light and darkness.

Well, dear reader, I would like to clarify a few things clear orfifth Students should understand the situation ... Employment is undisputed among scholars as the oldest book of the Bible. That was long before the Greek mathematician.

If you take a flashlight and a ball in a dark room, turn the ball and brightness in falshlight, you can put a flashlight or a sphere, so that the cycle of the Shadow of the torch was inadequate or circle? Can any other geometric shape to replace the ball and this little work experience? Can you understand that the ball is the earth, the flashlight is the sun and shade is the horizon where day and night come to an end? "

How much earth is water? Answer: About 2 / 3, and most of the time, the "boundary" is where "day and night come to an end," "surface water".

Can the shadow of the sun on the horizon (the boundary between light and darkness) on the face of the waters of the Outer Space, for example, miles, 25,000 on the earth?

How could I know what to use, without exception, which I in the roomIt has been revealed to him by God?

I taught fifth grade in Sunday school, and uses the experience of writing and children show that the Bible says that the earth is spherical, without the balloon, and they understand, but there are people educated scholars who deny or otherwise not.

None of the websites of Christian anti-flat earth, which I have discussed seen trying to refute, or even submit Job 26:10. Why not?

Well, Gee, whatdyaknow? Science proves the Bible! Cool, eh?

In this paper,
John the Baptist

(Isaiah 40:22-23) ... It's an apartment above the circle of the earth where the inhabitants are like grasshoppers, which covers the heavens as a gauze that stretches like a business in which they live, which is 23, the reduction of the high officials of nothing, but the judges the earth as a mere unreality made.

Look at the Bible teaches that the earth is round.

1) can justify a Christian, the Bible, as saying that the earth is flat?

Because the Bible says nothing of the sort, I can not imagine how.


2) The Bible does not say explicitly that "the earth is flat", but is involved in several places.

Even if only implicitly, in passing.


3) It is often claimed that the earth is round, or a ball, etc.

The only place where the shape of the Earth * * mentioned, is around. Of course, this passage is very likely not find the whole planet, or a ball - but it's really speculation on my part.


4) So if the Bible is the Word of God as a Christian can justify what the Bible is in our country too shallow, when God created the earth?

Easy. It is very easy to justify an apparent problem when, in fact, nothing remotely resembling this problem exists in reality.

They have been misinformed about what the Bible says. There are over 2700 years, God inspired Isaiah to write in this box:
(Isaiah 40:22) There is a dwelling above the circle of the earth where the inhabitants are like grasshoppers, which unfolds the heavens as a gauze, which extends to live like a tent, to
And this was long before scholars such as Christopher Columbus has helped us understand that the Earth is in fact the whole year.

I have problems with this order or that I use to analyze everything that was the best thing I did was go to a church leader, explained it so that they could understand. we need the Bible was written and translated from the Hebrew, for example, there are about 10 words in Hebrew, our love for 1 word translation is a lil vague:) with God and pray that these pastors Qs with lil more advice and training:)

"Certainly knowing must demonstrate that God is the earth is round, so it must be explained in the Bible?"

Not really, he should not. If they exist, then God can write what you know about the world in this book. Including the shoes you wore yesterday, (Converse All Star: P heheh).
