Synopsis

Explore how the heavens reveal both science and faith in one compelling view. This book blends astronomy with biblical insight to show how the universe can deepen wonder, humility, and spiritual reflection.

From the Milky Way’s vast starry rivers to the countless suns above, you’ll read about how astronomy and scripture illuminate each other. The pages connect awe for the cosmos with a living sense of the Creator’s ongoing work in nature, inviting readers to see the skies as a guide to meaning and wonder.

• Understand how astronomers count and map the stars, and why many still seem beyond easy reach


• Learn how biblical themes are tied to celestial phenomena and universal questions


• Discover how the night sky has inspired faith, curiosity, and a sense of scale

Ideal for curious readers of science and faith, this edition is approachable for newcomers and thoughtful for seasoned readers alike. It speaks to anyone who wonders how the universe points to God and invites a broader, humbler view of our place in the cosmos.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Preface The writer of the following pages, throughout his active life, has been a close student of nature, and the starry universe all about us has had its full share of his attention. He has gathered a fine assemblage of most entertaining facts; and the reader, whether a believer in theB ible or not, will be interested in observing that the astronomy of theB ible is far in advance of the time in which it was written, for only after some of the latest research with telescope, spectroscope, and camera, have seemingly obscure and meaningless passages of theB ible been understood. Dr. Reed has been a popular writer for magazines, as well as of books; and one of his major themes has been the astronomy of theB ible. The popularity of his astronomy magazine articles, and the urgent demand that many of them be printed over and over again, has led to the preparation of this book. Vibrant in the pages that follow is the sentiment of the inspired poet that the heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth His handiwork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge. There is no speech nor language; their voice is not heard. Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath He set a tabernacle for the sun. Ps.
