Second Samuel 22:10

He bent the heavens (curved the universe) and came down,
and he descended with dark clouds under his feet.
[The Hebrew word for "bent" is nata, which means to expand and stretch out. The Bible describes how the heavens and the universe are bent/curved. This suggests that there may be more than the three spatial dimensions. In the early 1900s, Einstein formulated the theory of relativity, with time as a fourth dimension, resulting in "curved space." Here we glimpse how God can stand outside of time and know the end from the beginning (Isa. 46:10), while at the same time existing in time. Today, scientists often talk about ten dimensions, including light, supergravity, electromagnetism, superstring theory, etc.]
