Thematic Bible: Darkness, of God's inscrutability


Thematic Bible





So the people stood at a distance, while Moses approached the thick cloud where God was.

Then Solomon said,
“The Lord has said that He would dwell in the thick cloud.

He made darkness His hiding place, His canopy around Him,
Darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

For you have not come to a mountain that can be touched and to a blazing fire, and to darkness and gloom and whirlwind, and to the blast of a trumpet and the sound of words which sound was such that those who heard begged that no further word be spoken to them.
