An Ocean current called the paths of seas

This is the Bible phrase that prompted the Father of Oceanography to begin a search for paths in the ocean.

King David of Israel wrote Psalm 8 by Yahuwah inspiration 3,000 years ago. Yet the “paths of the seas” he mentioned have only been known by modern peoples for two centuries.

The “paths of the seas” were discovered by Matthew Fontaine Maury (1806-1873), the Father of Oceanography.

Maury was a US naval officer whose attention was arrested by the phrase “paths of the seas” upon hearing Psalm 8 read aloud. He vowed to find these “paths of the seas.”

👉 In Psalms 8:8 “The birds in the sky, and the fish in the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas.

An ocean current is any more or less permanent or continuous, directed movement of ocean water that flows in one of the Earth’s oceans.The currents are generated from the forces acting upon the water like the earth’s rotation, the wind, the temperature and salinity differences and the gravitation of the moon.

👉 In Psalms 77:19 “Your way was through the sea, your path through the great waters; yet your footprints were unseen.
