Bible Question: Eccles.3:15-That which has been is now and that which is to be has already been;and God requires that which is already past. Isn't this compatible with einstein's theory? |
Bible Answer: Hello, Actually this would be closer to the Jewish views concerning prophecy and future events than Einstein's theory. To the Jews, the events that were prophecied by the Prophets sent by God were viewed as Past actions. Since God never lies, and that these events were told from God that they will happen, the Jews wrote them down in past tense. So, the question wasn't "Will these events take place?", but was "When are they going to take place?". In the Jewish perspective, these events were already completed in God's eyes, so they wrote them down as such. I hope this helps. Jesus Loves You! Jesusman |
