Bible Question: A while back I read something about science discovering where the four corners of the earth really are. But I can't remember where they are. Does anybody know? |
Bible Answer: Rev 7:1 And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. *the four corners of the earth.* Have you ever seen a photograph of earth taken from space? Have you seen any corners on the planet lately? What then, is the Bible wrong? May it never be. The writer here is using figurative, not literal, language. If one forces an overly literal interpretation where it does not fit, then the literal sense can become nonsense. |
