Miracles are very often thought of, both by those who believe in them and by those who do not, as events, or purported events, that contradict the laws of nature and that therefore cannot be explained by science or reason. But this is not at all what the Bible means by a miracle, as any Biblical scholar will tell you. The laws of nature is a modern scientific concept. The Bible knows nothing about nature, let alone the laws of nature.
