Mountains have always been a source of wonder, inspiration, and fear for humans. This is especially true for people who live in regions that are mountainous. The Bible mentions mountains a number of times, and it provides us with insight into their significance. For example, in Job 38:1, God says that the world was created on Mount Seir, a mountain range that spread across the land. In 1 Samuel 2:8 and Psalm 104:7, we learn that “mountains” are places where God’s angels reside.
Mt. Sinai, where Moses received the Ten Commandments, is just one example of how mountains are significant in the Bible. Mountains often symbolize a place of divine encounter or revelation. They are also seen as places of refuge and security. In Psalm 23, for example, the Lord is described as a “shepherd who leads [the believer] beside still waters” and “sets me down in a green pasture.” The image of being led beside still waters conveys safety and rest, while the image of being set down in a green pasture suggests refreshment and growth.
Mountains are a fixture of life on Earth. Rising up and dominating landscapes, they have inspired people for centuries. Many cultures have stories about mountains, their origins, and the creatures that live there. The Bible has a lot to say about mountains, too. In particular, it speaks to the importance of faith in God.
The Bible says that mountains are “a sign of God’s promise” (Ps. 125:1) and that faith in God is the key to moving mountains (Eccles. 1:4).
