ROTATION OF EARTH

Bible Miracles: Rotation of Earth

Our Earth rotates around its axis at 1600km/hr, which causes day and night on Earth. Then it revolves around the Sun at 107,000km/hr which is responsible for our 12 months year and different seasons on Earth.

In Bible book of Job written more than three thousand years ago chapter 38 verse 12 and 14 God Himself says:

Job 38:12: Have you commanded the morning since your days began, and caused the dawn to know its place, 13 that it might take hold of the skirts of the Earth, and the wicked be shaken out of it?

Job 38:14: It [the Earth] is turned as clay to the seal, and they stand as a garment.

Modern science has come to understand that the Earth’s rotation on its axis is responsible for the Sun’s rising and setting. The picture here is of a vessel of clay being turned or rotated upon the potter’s wheel, an accurate analogy of the Earth’s rotation. This is a clear indication of a revolving earth, with day and night at the same time. Science didn’t discover this until the fifteenth century.
