PROOF: Judeo-Christian Bible Inspired of God

[Guno צְבִי]

Poor Richard Saunders:

Yes. And I don't know why you're laughing because the joke is on you.

When Isaiah and Job wrote the accurate viewpoint descriptions of earth, the Greeks--and no other peoples of the time--did not know that earth looks like a circle when viewed from above and that it appears to hang upon nothing when viewed from above.



The book of Isaiah was completed in 732 B.C.E. The book of Job was completed in 1473 B.C.E.

The Greeks with their speculation of a spherical earth were late. Very late. Greek philosopher Aristotle didn't show up until the 4th century B.C.E. -- more than 300 years after Isaiah wrote that the earth is circular ((Isaiah 40:22) and more than 900 years after Job wrote that earth appears to hang upon nothing (Job 26:7). Below is confirmation of the Greeks' late arrival.

"Throughout history, the shape of the Earth has been debated by scientists and philosophers. By 500 B.C. most scholars thought the Earth was compl etely spherical. The Greek philosopher Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) is credited as the first person to try and calculate the size of the Earth by determining its circumference (the length around the equator) He estimated this distance to be 400,000 stades (a stadia is a Greek measurement equaling about 600 feet). With one mile equal to 5,280 feet, Aristotle calculated the distance around the Earth to be about 45,500 miles.

Around 250 B.C., another Greek philosopher, Eratosthenes, measured the circumference of the Earth using the following equation:"

"That people may know that you, whose name is JEHOVAH, you alone are the Most High over all the earth." ~ Psalms 83:18

If that's your idea of an effective rebuttal to my Opening Post aka OP, try again.

The problem with members of the Religion of Atheism, such as yourself, is that they having no effective means of disputing the existence of Jehovah. What they are left with is a desperate need to cling to Darwin's Evolution Myth and Big Bang Theory, neither of which have ever been proven.

Thread 'PROOF: Judeo-Christian Bible Inspired of God'

Jul 4, 2024

Unlike the bibles of other religions, there is EVIDENCE the Judeo-Christian Bible was divinely inspired by Jehovah. Not only does it contain almost 2,000 accurately fulfilled prophesies, but Bible writers had special information that was not discovered by scientists and explorers until centuries later. Below are two such examples.


1. The Prophet Isaiah gave a viewpoint description of how earth appears from outer space and did it at a time in history when humans were earthbound. Notice below.

I guess I must have missed the fact that Isiah spoke and wrote in modern English.
Do you have evidence of him actually writing your quote in English?

1. The Prophet Isaiah gave a viewpoint description of how earth appears from outer space and did it at a time in history when humans were earthbound. Notice below.

"There is One who is dwelling above the CIRCLE of the earth, the dwellers in which are as grasshoppers, the One who is stretching out the heavens just as a fine gaze, who spread them out like a tent in which to dwell," (Isaiah 40:22)

Isaiah's viewpoint description--of a circular earth, when viewed from outer space--was not confirmed or proven until the 20th century, when astronauts were able to view earth from space. In effect, Isaiah, who was earthbound at the time of his writing, gave a viewpoint description that was almost 3,000 years ahead of his time.

Many in the ancient world knew the world was round. Eratosthenes in the 3rd century BC actually measured the circumference of the earth and he was pretty durn close.

The Bible writers that I quoted in my OP existed centuries before Eratosthenes. The prophet Isaiah existed in the 8th century BCE or 500 years before Eratosthenes was born.

Isaiah - Prophet, Timeline & Message

Isaiah was best known as the Hebrew prophet who predicted the coming of Jesus Christ to salvage mankind from sin. Isaiah lived about 700 years before the birth of Jesus Christ.

Isaiah was inspired by Jehovah to write regarding earth:

"There is One who is dwelling above the CIRCLE of the earth, the dwellers in which are as grasshoppers, the One who is stretching out the heavens just as a fine gaze, who spread them out like a tent in which to dwell," (Isaiah 40:22)


At the time Isaiah wrote that the earth is circular, no other peoples in existence knew that.



Moses who wrote the book of Job existed centuries before the prophet Isaiah. Moses lived between the 14th and 13th centuries BCE or 1,000 years before Eratosthenes.

A brief account of the life of Moses

Moses, (flourished 14th–13th century bce), Prophet of Judaism.

Moses was inspired by Jehovah to write regarding earth:

"He [Jehovah God] is stretching out the north over the empty place, HANGING THE EARTH UPON NOTHING;" (Job 26:7)]


QUESTION #1 to Obtenebrator: How could Isaiah and Moses have known any of this in light of the fact they were earthbound?
