Thematic Bible: Heavens


Thematic Bible



He is the one who sits on the earth's horizon; its inhabitants are like grasshoppers before him. He is the one who stretches out the sky like a thin curtain, and spreads it out like a pitched tent.


This is what the true God, the Lord, says -- the one who created the sky and stretched it out, the one who fashioned the earth and everything that lives on it, the one who gives breath to the people on it, and life to those who live on it:

In earlier times you established the earth; the skies are your handiwork.


For all the gods of the nations are worthless, but the Lord made the heavens.

When he established the heavens, I was there; when he marked out the horizon over the face of the deep,



All the stars in the sky will fade away, the sky will roll up like a scroll; all its stars will wither, like a leaf withers and falls from a vine or a fig withers and falls from a tree.


Look up at the sky! Look at the earth below! For the sky will dissipate like smoke, and the earth will wear out like clothes; its residents will die like gnats. But the deliverance I give is permanent; the vindication I provide will not disappear.




They will perish, but you will endure. They will wear out like a garment; like clothes you will remove them and they will disappear.

The sky was split apart like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved from its place.
