Atmospheric Objects
The atmospheric objects in this subdomain may also be regarded as atmospheric phenomena, and in terms of our present-day perspective, they would be regarded as events. However, from the standpoint of a classification presumably valid for biblical times, the phenomena would more likely be regarded as objects rather than as events, and it is for this reason that they are classified at this point in the general category of Geographical Objects and Features.
