Subject: when did it rain for the first time? |
Bible Note: Thanks for your reply, bjanko. However, your arguement is an argument from silence. Not mine as rain is menioned in Genesis 2:5. It tells us in fact the reason ("for" by the way is a purpose statemen) rain was needed, and when God sent it. It was needed for growth of herbs, and sent when God had created man. That is the way it seems. No where does it say that it never rained until the flood. Does it? That is the assuption so many make. Rain was not the problem in the days of Noah. Judgment was. God used rain to bring that about. That it rained was not the judgment. People did not die because rain came. There was just so much of it. Rain itself is a good thing. People pray God will send the needed amount of it. People also pray that they will not receive to much of the good stuff. Thanks again. |
