Job also says,
Where is this cornerstone? Where are these doors? Why is Job only accurate in certain places? Is this not the sign of modern eyes reinterpreting the old?
How do you know that the springs of the sea is not referring to this mundane phenomena?
Quote:“Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?
Tell Me, if you have understanding,
Who set its measurements? Since you know.
Or who stretched the line on it?
“On what were its bases sunk?
Or who laid its cornerstone,
When the morning stars sang together
And all the sons of God shouted for joy?
“Or who enclosed the sea with doors
When, bursting forth, it went out from the womb;
When I made a cloud its garment
And thick darkness its swaddling band,
And I placed boundaries on it
And set a bolt and doors,
And I said, ‘Thus far you shall come, but no farther;
And here shall your proud waves stop’?
Where is this cornerstone? Where are these doors? Why is Job only accurate in certain places? Is this not the sign of modern eyes reinterpreting the old?
Quote:Freshwater submarine springs occur all over the world. from New York to California, from Bahrain to Barbados. Water pushing to the surface of the sea shows the boil of the spring and can be spotted easily when the tides are low.
As the article states, these springs arise when fresh water is transported in rocky conduits out into the ocean. No divine wisdom necessary here - just the ordinary observational skills of a typical scientifically-ignorant Bronze Age sea captain.
