[Season 3, Episode 12]God led the children of Israel through the wilderness by a "pillar of fire" during the night. (Exodus 13:21)Was this a miraculous pillar of actual fire floating in the air, involving smoke and heat? Or was it something else that could actually be explained by science?As with the pillar of cloud, we find that modern science sheds light on what was happening within the environment to create this observable phenomenon at night within the unique environment of the Israelite encampments. Today we call this phenomenon "chemiluminescence."As a result of this new scientific understanding, we can even see what color the pillar of fire would have been. God's works in history are beyond amazing, and once again, we see that they are more real than we ever imagined.Also on this episode:Research Update: NR MeasurementsHelen's View: Lessons from the Life of Charles Goodyear: Part IVPODCAST WEBSITE: The BC Messenger has a podcast website!
