1 | Genesis 1:6 through 1:8 -- confusion | Gen 1:7 | trainersean | 107516 | ||
Genesis 1:6 And God said, "Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water." 1:7 So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so. 1:8 God called the expanse "sky." And there was evening, and there was morning-the second day. I'm confused. Is the water above the expanse referring to the precipitation in the clouds? Somebody please help me clear this up. |

Greetings Trainersean, Ryrie's Study Bible attempts to add a bit of commentary on Genesis 1:6-8.. "1:7 the waters which were above. Apparently God suspended a vast body of water in vapor form over the earth, making a canopy that caused conditions on the earth to resemble those inside a greenhouse. This may account for the longevity of human life (Gen. 5) and for the tremendous amount of water involved in the worldwide flood (Gen. 6-9)." (1) I hope that this helps..
