How Could They Have Known, Inpired By God Or Guess Work?

There are some findings in the Bible that would have been impossible to know looking at the time the Bible was written and the level of knowledge and technology available to the people inspired by God to have written the Bible. Job 28:25 talked about air having weight. Modern scientists could only discover this not until 1644 by Evangelista Torricelli using a mercury barometer. Isaiah 40:22 talked about the earth being a circle at a time when it was common knowledge that the earth was flat. The earliest scientists who came up with the spherical earth were the ancient Greeks of the 3rd century. Job 28 19-20. Light travels. It was not until Around 1676, Danish astronomer Ole Roemer became the first person to prove that light travels at a finite speed. Job 26:7 specifically and authoritatively said the earth hangs on nothing in space. This was only discovered In the 1680’s by Sir Isaac Newton that the earth was suspended in outer space. Job 28:16 talked about the springs in the sea. Modern scientists discovered this In 1977, scientists discovered hot springs at a depth of 2.5 km, on the Galapagos Rif. Now if all this could be discovered by this men of low esteem , who's intellect was not as vast as that of scientist today, if they could discover all this without any modern technology that could travel outer space or deep into the ocean but only based on inspiration by God. I'll leave you all to ponder on these. There's only one conclusion, they could only have been able to know all this if revealed to them by someone or something that knows all about the constellations and the entire universe and these definitely could never have been a guess work, could it?
