The Rakia (firmament?)

Video Not Working? Fix It Now

This video features an important word in Genesis 1: “Rakia”. It explores three verses, and comes to a conclusion about the meaning of “Rakia” and the visuals of this part of the Bible. In this video we read not one but three verses, for the first in the series. Those are Genesis 1:6, Genesis 1:7, and Genesis 1:8. Note that this channel is educational and non-religious, looking at the biblical text from a linguistics point of view.
