A sheep in wolf's clothing.
The firmament rabbit trail
There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun, who rideth upon the heaven in thy help, and in his excellency on the sky.
(Deuteronomy 33:26) KJV
Just another example of God using a section of the firmament as a movable platform.
Just saying…
Well, well, well. What do we have here? Could it be that the windows of heaven is not just flowery poetic language? If heaven is a sphere of crystal on the edge of space like a sea of glass, which was used to separate the waters above from the waters below during creation, then if portals in it opened water would pour through.
Just imagine, this could be as if large sections, similar to the one that God was riding on in Exodus 24, slid to the side to allow the water through. My goodness, when they slid back into place it could have caused a shower of tiny rolled glass beads to fall, along with grains of shocked quartz as it slammed into place, and other extra-terrestrial elements like Iridium. If it fell just as the 40 days and nights of rain ended then it might be deposited as a thin layer all around the world marking the boundary between one sedimentary sequence and another.
Oh, wait, we have exactly that. It’s called the Iridium Anomaly.
I guess this means that the idea that heaven is a sheet of layered crystal that encloses a spherical universe is actually a predictive testable hypothesis.
Who knew?
This is the end of the rabbit trail. Thanks for following it!
Wow, here’s a little Easter Egg! Moses and the leaders of the Israelites went up the mountain and saw God flying around on a sheet of sapphire. What have I been saying? The firmament solves a multitude of oddball scriptural issues. Here is a perfect example of several concepts all in one place which works to confirm the validity of the argument as a whole.
It also just happens to solve the issue of why science can’t appear to locate 80% of the mass of the universe.
Just saying…
God is in heaven, above the dark cloud. This is speaking of the covering that Isaiah referred to as being like sackcloth.
Heaven is a circuit, an orbit of the earth, a sphere on the edge of space.
Let’s not get carried away though, trust Job to bring us back to reality. This gets us back to the very meaning of the Hebrew word translated firmament – raqia. Something which has been spread out into a thin sheet. This time the concept is connected with something strong, which twelve layers of different crystalline compounds would be. It looks like molten glass. This once again connects our firmament with the sea of glass as we saw in Revelation 4, 15 and 21.
Now we are able to unravel this confusing little mess.
Do you see how many nagging scriptural issues having a firmament solves?
Not to mention it’s the missing 80% of the mass of the universe.
Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him.
To him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, which were of old; lo, he doth send out his voice, and that a mighty voice.
(Psalms 68:4, 33) KJV
Here are a couple of odd statements. Odd, that is, if you don’t understand the heavens as being a layered sheet of crystal like a sea of glass. A piece of which could be ridden on…

I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.
(Isaiah 50:3) KJV
We’ve cemented the connection between the firmament and the sea of glass, which means that the sea of glass is the structure created on the second day which separated the waters from the waters.

After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne. And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.
And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God. And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
(Revelation 4:1-6) KJV
This builds substantially on what we have deduced before, but in a way that begins to tie it all together.

And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
(Revelation 15:2) KJV
This is a very similar idea to what we saw in Revelation 21. The multitudes of the saved are standing on something described as a sea of glass which, contextually, we now know is the foundation of heaven which is the firmament.
