The Bible talks about North, East, South and West..?

Question

in terms of salvation. What does this mean? Why use directions?

Answer 1

hahahaa. Good Question.

When God refers to north and south, He is talking about death. why? You can only go so far either direction and then it stops at the pole. Your life ends.

When God talks about salvation being east and west, it refers to "eternity". Why? East and west has no end. You can start out east and keep going east forever. You can go west forever, it doesn't end. Eternal Life has no end.

Answer 2

it means world wide and most likely they had to break it down for the simple minded people of that time
