Scripture Based Flat Earth Proposition

[GaryA]

the scripture is very, very clear that rain - water from above - comes from clouds.

Where in the Bible does it say that clouds are the only place/thing that rain comes from?

 

[GaryA]

No one will doubt or challenge the idea that rain comes from clouds. Yet, that simple idea is not "proof" against other possibilities for where rain may come from. Your course of suggestion is lame - you may as well stop it, rethink, and start again in a different more worthwhile frame of thinking.

Go read post #440 over-and-over until you get it...

Where in the Bible does it say that clouds are the only place/thing that rain comes from?

Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.
(Psalm 147:8)

identically, He covers the firmament with clouds.
which is, the clouds are above the firmament.
the clouds, being made of water, which are separated from the seas by an empty space, i.e. "firmament"
the water above.

not to be confused with "the firmament of the heavens" -- another firmament, or empty space, also called "the heavens" - in which the stars, sun, moon and planets are set.

clouds, above, made of water, are separated by a space-between from the seas, made of water, which are below.

stars and planets and the sun and moon are in another space, above the waters which are the cover of the terrestrial firmament. see Genes 1 & Psalm 147.

There is only one firmament - and, everything this side of the "3rd heaven" is in it.

Why is the sky blue?

Because, there is water up there...
