Miss Frances Rolleston, of Keswick, and to carry on a correspondence with her with respect to her work, Mazzaroth :or, the Constellations. She was the first to create an interest in this important subject. Since then Dr. Seiss, of Philadelphia, has endeavoured to popularize her work on the other side of the At lantic ;and brief references have been made to the subject in such books as Moses and Geology, by Dr. Kinns, and in Primeval Man; but it was felt, for many reasons, that it was desirable to make another effort to set forth, in a more complete form, the witness of the stars to prophetic truth, so necessary in these last days. To the late Miss Rolleston, however, belongs the honour of collecting a mass of information bearing on this subject; but, published as it was, chiefly in the form of notes, unarranged and unindexed, it was suited only for, but was most valuable to, the student. She it was who performed the drudgery of collecting the facts presented by A lbumazer, the Arab astronomer to the Caliphs of Grenada, 850 A.D.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. For millennia, the stars have held a profound mystery, their patterns and movements captivating human imagination. This book delves into the ancient knowledge of the constellations, revealing their forgotten significance as a celestial tapestry woven with prophetic truth. Drawing on historical and biblical sources, the author unveils the meaning behind the twelve signs of the Zodiac and their associated constellations, tracing their origins back to the very dawn of civilization. These celestial symbols, far from being mere arbitrary groupings of stars, were understood by ancient cultures as a divine revelation, foretelling the coming of a Redeemer and the hope of humanity's salvation. This book meticulously examines each constellation, revealing its unique message and contribution to the overarching narrative of redemption. It demonstrates how these celestial signs, echoing the prophecies later recorded in scripture, offer profound insights into the suffering, triumph, and ultimate glory of the promised Messiah.
