A sheep in wolf's clothing.
I looked at the dome over the heads of the living creatures and above them was something that seemed to be a throne made of sapphire.
(Ezekiel 10:1) Good News Translation
The Hebrew word translated as “dome” is raqia. A simple definition is “expanse” so most translations render the meaning as “the expanse of the sky.”

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 4:6) KJV
Accepting the firmament as a sphere of rigid crystal on the edge of space solves many scriptural and physical problems. The King James Version is the only Bible from which an accurate cosmological model may be deduced.

And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll: and all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falleth off from the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree.
(Isaiah 34:4) KJV
Is the phrase “the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll” flowery poetic language or accurate physics? If the firmament is a rigid sphere of crystal on the edge of space, it’s accurate physics.

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.
