The Sun, The Moon,

and The Stars spoken

in the Bible

What are the figurative sky, the sun, the moon,

and the stars spoken in the Bible?

What are the figurative sky, the sun, the moon, and the stars spoken in the Bible, and what do they refer to? Why did God emphasize the sky, the earth, the sun, the moon, and the stars, numerous times in the Bible?

What do the sky, the sun, the moon, and the stars refer to?
Let us ask God for the answers through the Bible.

According to Gn 37:9-11, the father and the mother of Jacob’s family are referred to the sun and the moon, and their sons the stars. The house of Jacob, where these sun, moon, and stars are, become “the sky” as compared figuratively to the sun, the moon, and the stars of the natural world.

To summarize, Jacob’s family members were the sun, the moon, and the stars of the heaven, and Jacob was Israel, the one who overcomes (Gn 32:28), the people of Israel were the chosen people of God, and the chosen people were God’s kingdom and His people. As we know God is in the spiritual sky(heaven), not on earth. In the same way, Jesus overcame (Jn 16:33) and became the spiritual Israel, and he established the twelve tribes through his twelve disciples (refer to Mt 10:1-7, Acts 26:7, Jas 1:1), and also called himself “heaven” (Mt 4:17, Mt 13:24, 37).

Therefore, Jesus and his disciples become the sun, the moon, and the stars.
This is why the family that belongs to the sky and God is also called the people of heaven, and the kingdom of heaven.
