What does the Bible say about ice age?

Bible Topic · WEB

The Bible presents ice, frost, snow, and freezing waters as works of God’s wise and sovereign providence, displaying His power over creation rather than explaining a specific prehistoric ice age. In Job 38:29-30, the Lord asks who gives birth to frost and causes waters to harden like stone, humbling human claims to mastery of nature. Job 37:10 and Psalm 147:16-18 likewise portray cold, ice, and their melting as governed by God’s breath and word. Genesis 8:22 assures Noah that seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, will continue while the earth remains. These passages call believers to reverent trust in the Creator, who rules every season for His glory and His creatures’ good.
