More on the Distance Between Heaven and Hell

In an earlier post, I talked about the calculations one of my students had made about the distance between Heaven and Hell. Lingwe questions my student's assumptions, and Horseman, Pass By argues that the question is moot anyway because of a flawed reading of the text -- so maybe the question would be how far an angel would have to fall to be knocked unconscious for nine days?

  2. It’s always fun when something fundamentally unknowable turns into a (mock) scholarly debate like this.
