Thematic Bible: Bright


Thematic Bible



Ask the Lord for rain
in the season of spring rain.
The Lord makes the rain clouds,
and He will give them showers of rain
and crops in the field for everyone.

He saturates clouds with moisture;
He scatters His lightning through them.


The form of the living creatures was like the appearance of burning coals of fire and torches. Fire was moving back and forth between the living creatures; it was bright, with lightning coming out of it.


Now men cannot even look at the sun
when it is in the skies,
after a wind has swept through and cleared them away.


if I have gazed at the sun when it was shining
or at the moon moving in splendor,


Charging horseman,
flashing sword,
shining spear;
heaps of slain,
mounds of corpses,
dead bodies without end
they stumble over their dead.
