The Astronomy of the Bible

This wonderful work was written in 1908 by solar astronomer E.W. Maunder, discover of the "Maunder Minimum" of the solar cycle, an indisputable scientist with impeccable credentials and accomplishments. This book demonstrates that Professor Maunder was also a man of deep Biblical faith, and a scholar of Scripture. In this book, Prof. Maunder discusses the many Scriptures that refer to the night sky, and provides considerable historical and observational information. Unlike typical science works today, Prof. Maunder presents solid science with an abashed devotion to the truth and authority of Scripture. There is none of casual dismissals typical of the contemporary secular science mainstream. Nor are there any trite creationist appeals typical of contemporary Biblical writings. And neither is there any discussion at all of this mystical "Gospel in the Stars" nonsense that was no doubt very popular during Prof. Maunder's early life. Prof. Maunder's book is an excellent read, especially for amateur astronomers, telescope enthusiasts and others of Christian faith who are already experienced at observing the sky.
