Dimension-by-Dimension Evidence
What each work's passages reveal about its stance on each of the six dimensions.
Time
Elijah Cycle (1 Kings 17 – 2 Kings 2)
Linear, eschatological: Elijah's story points toward the Day of the LORD. God acts decisively in time.
Space
Elijah Cycle (1 Kings 17 – 2 Kings 2)
Finite, three-dimensional: Mount Carmel, Mount Horeb, the wilderness — theologically charged geography.
Matter
Elijah Cycle (1 Kings 17 – 2 Kings 2)
Finite and subject to divine power: fire consumes the sacrifice, rain is withheld and restored.
Observer
Elijah Cycle (1 Kings 17 – 2 Kings 2)
The prophet receives divine revelation through direct encounter — the still small voice on Horeb.
Energy
Elijah Cycle (1 Kings 17 – 2 Kings 2)
Divine energy is infinite: fire from heaven, whirlwind, chariot of fire.
Information
Elijah Cycle (1 Kings 17 – 2 Kings 2)
The prophetic word is substantival and conserved: what God declares through Elijah comes to pass.
Internal Tensions
Where each work's argument pulls against itself.
The spectacular theophany on Carmel vs. the anti-spectacular theophany on Horeb — two modes of divine revelation in unresolved tension.
