MOONLIGHT (SHINETH NOT)
Job 25:5
Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.
THE MOON SHINETH NOT -HOW THE WRITTER OF THE BOOK OF JOB KNOW THAT THE MOON SHINETH NOT
Moonlight is the light that reaches Earth from the Moon. This light is not created by the Moon, but mostly sunlight, with some starlight and earthlight. The Moon does not, however, reflect sunlight like a mirror, but it reflects light from those portions of its surface which the Sun's light strikes.See diffuse reflection for more on that topic.
The light from the Moon is actually the reflected light from the Sun! it is already in the BIBLE that the MOON LIGHT will be as the light of the Sun because Moon light is only a reflected light of the sun.
Moreover, the light of the moon will be as the light of the sun..."(Isaiah 30:26)
Every second, the Sun is converting 600 million tons of hydrogen into helium. This reaction lets out a tremendous amount of energy. Most of this energy heads off into space, but some of it falls on the planets and the moons in the Solar System. This is why we can see them at all. Without the Sun, only Jupiter and Saturn would be readily detectable in the infrared spectrum, as they give off more heat than they absorb from the Sun.
Different objects in the Solar System have a different amount of reflectivity. Astronomers call reflected light from the Sun albedo. The values for an object’s albedo can range between 0 (dark) and 1 (bright). The albedo for the Moon is 0.12. In other words, the Moon reflects 12% of the sunlight that falls onto it.
