The Lightning in Bible and Quran
The Lightning in the Bible:
The Lightning is mentioned in the Bible 46 times and in the Quran five times, i.e., the Bible cites the Thunder nine times more than the Quran does.
Furthermore, the total words of the Bible are 788,280 while the total words of the Quran are 77,473. It follows that, the Bible has the likely of more than 10 times than the Quran word-wise to talk about the Lightning. In addition, the Bible has the prospective of more than 25 times than the Quran topic-wise to utter about the Lightning.

The Lightning in the Quran:
Surah 2:19-20
See my article "Bible Versus Quran Versus Sciences, Array (32) The Thunder", therein you find not only 2:19-20 but 2:8-20. In these verses the Quran describes the characters of the hypocrites, the double-faced Muslims who sold their forever- afterlife by this limited life.
Surah 30:24, Surah 24:43 and Surah 13:12 talk about:
The lightning as a sign from Allah.
The feeling of people in respect to lightning is both the fear of it and the hope for rain coming with it.
The vital role of rain in giving life to the dead earth
The formation of the clouds, hail and rain
The flashes of lightning may cause lightning transient blindness
The role of winds in fertilizing the negatively and positively charged clouds; a vital process that leads to Rain formation.
The lightning, clouds, hail, rain, winds, thunder, revival of the dead land, all are signs for "those who are wise".
Surah 30:24
And among His Signs, He shows you the lightning, by way both of fear and of hope, and He sends down rain from the sky and with it gives life to the earth after it is dead: verily in that are Signs for those who are wise.
Surah 24:43
Seest thou not that Allah makes the clouds move gently, then joins them together, then makes them into a heap? then wilt thou see rain issue forth from their midst. And He sends down from the sky mountain masses (of clouds) wherein hail is: He strikes therewith whom He pleases and He Turns it away from whom He pleases. The vivid flash of His lightning well-nigh blinds the sight.
Surah 13:12
It is He Who doth show you the lightning, by way both of fear and of hope: it is He Who doth raise up the clouds, heavy with (fertilizing) rain!
The verse (13:12) describes a vital phenomenon. It is the important role of winds in fertilizing the negatively charged and the positively charged clouds. This vital phenomenon leads to the formation Rain formation; It is only known after revelation of the Quran by more than 1300 years.
Back to the main issue of my series of articles (1-33); this is my question to you smart readers: "Is the Quran quoted from the Bible and which book preceded the sciences"?
