Bible Question: What is meant by "there is no longer any sea" in this verse? Does it mean that water is no longer present on earth, save the River of Life? |
Bible Answer: Scripture ... Revelation 20:13, 21:23-24 ... Makarios, greetings my brother. We know the sea just gave up the dead (Rev 20:13), so it could of been corrupted. Could it be that people can hide, for awhile, in the sea. They will away from the Light, since there will be no more sun or moon (21:23-24). I don't think any light will be able to penetrate the sea very deep. This may be limited to the Great Sea. If there were no seas, there would be more room to live. I know you have answers from experts .. these are my thoughts. Searcher |
