Hydrological cycle

Isaiah’s Use of the Spiritual Hydrological Cycle

hydrological cycle

Hydrogeology is the science of water distribution through the earth. Consider a simple description of the hydrological cycle:

  • Rain falls to the ground, nourishing plants, supplying drinking water, etc..
  • Water seeps into the ground or runs off into creeks and rivers if the ground is saturated.
  • Creeks, rivers and groundwater flow into large bodies of water (lakes, seas, oceans).
  • Water returns to the sky from these large bodies through the process of evaporation.

Storehouses in the Hydrological Cycle? | Answering the Atheist

Inquiry:

Answering the Atheist, storehouses

Ecclesiastes 1:7 reads, “All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again.” This is part of a description of the hydrological cycle. However, Job 38:22-23 reads, “Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? Or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail, while i have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?” Storehouses are NOT part of the cycle! Is there a contradiction?
