  Rainbow
     caused by the reflection and refraction of the rays of the sun
     shining on falling rain. It was appointed as a witness of the
     divine faithfulness (Gen. 9:12-17). It existed indeed before,
     but it was then constituted as a sign of the covenant. Others,
     however (as Delitzsch, Commentary on Pentateuch), think that it
     "appeared then for the first time in the vault and clouds of
     heaven." It is argued by those holding this opinion that the
     atmosphere was differently constituted before the Flood. It is
     referred to three other times in Scripture (Ezek. 1:27, 28; Rev.
     4:1-3; 10:1).

  Rainbow \Rain"bow`\ (r[=a]n"b[=o]`), n. [AS. regenboga, akin to
     G. regenbogen. See Rain, and Bow anything bent.]
     A bow or arch exhibiting, in concentric bands, the several

           the secondary rainbow, concentric with the first, and
           separated from it by a small interval. It is formed by
           two refractions and two reflections, is much fainter
           than the primary bow, and has its colors arranged in
           the reverse order from those of the latter.
           [1913 Webster]

        trout, and golden trout.
