Habakkuk 3:3 (New International Version)
God came from Teman, the Holy One from Mount Paran.
Selah [a]
His glory covered the heavens
and his praise filled the earth.
- According to the Smith’s Bible Dictionary: Teman, a son of Eliphaz, son of Esau by Adah, (Gen. 36:11,15 and in the I Chronicles 1:36). Now if Habakkuk saw God come or coming from the son’s of Esau (Eliphaz), then God must be a man and not a spook.
- If Habakkuk’s prophesy refers to some country, town, or city; if there be any truth at all in this prophesy, then we can say that this prophet saw God as a material being belonging to the human family of earth, and not a spirit.
