Bible Question: Bible information on cremation anywhere? |
Bible Answer: Dear freesnair, I'm afraid the bible says nothing about cremation - the word is not even found in scripture. There are no prohibitions against it though some will point to Amos 2:1: "Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of Moab and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because he burned the bones of the king of Edom to lime." Jesus Himself was buried though He arose from the grave! If you'd like more info you may check some online sources by doing a search under "the Bible and cremation" for starters.
