What is the significance of ‘40 days’ in the Bible?

What is the significance of ‘40 days’ in the Bible?: "Question: "What is the significance of ‘40 days’ in the Bible?"

Answer: The number 40 shows up often in the Bible. Because 40 appears so often in contexts dealing with judgment or testing, many scholars understand it to be the number of “probation” or “trial.” This doesn’t mean that 40 is entirely symbolic; it still has a literal meaning in Scripture. “Forty days” means “forty days,” but it does seem that God has chosen this number to help emphasize times of trouble and hardship."

The Function of the Law | Ray Comfort's Daily Evidence: "The reason for sorcery, adultery, false witness, and other transgressions of God’s Law is a lack of the fear of God.

On The Box: Today’s Show Notes: Tuesday, 20th November 2012.: "Just as rebellion leads to war, so surrender results in peace . . . The choice is ours—a virtual war with God or a peaceful surrender.
