Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why should an astronomer write a commentary on the Bible? Because commentators as a rule are not astronomers, and therefore either pass over the astronomical allusions of Scripture in silence, or else annotate them in a way which, from a scientific point of view, leaves much to be desired. Astronomical allusions in the Bible, direct and indirect, are not few in number, and, in order to bring out their full significance, need to be treated astronomically. Astronomy further gives us the power of placing ourselves to some degree in the position of the patriarchs and prophets of old. We know that the same sun and moon, stars and planets, shine upon us as shone upon Abraham and Moses, David and Isaiah. We can, if we will, see the unchanging heavens with their eyes, and understand their attitude towards them.

His studies lead to the identification of the "Maunder Minimum", a period of time that spanned from 1645 to 1715. Other notable works by this author : "The Royal Observatory" (1900), "Astronomy without a Telescope" (1904), "A. and E" (1910).

Book excerpt: The Bible's mentions of astronomy are examined in this book by astronomer Edward Walter Maunder, whose work advanced the study of sunspots. This premium edition includes the original illustrations. As a professional astronomer working in a scientific environment, Maunder was also fascinated by how human understanding of astronomy improved throughout history. As the son of a Wesleyan minister, the author was raised in a Christian environment and had experience with the Bible during his youth. This book sees him revisit the Old and New Testaments to explain how astronomy was understood and used in the Biblical era. The ancient peoples witnessed and described many astronomical phenomena in their writings, and the Holy Bible is no exception. The sun and moon are frequently referred to in the scriptures, are as astronomical phenomena such as comets and meteorites. Eclipses fascinated the ancients, and various spiritual attributions for all manner of events in the sky are present in the Bible. The importance of the heavens is clear in the nativity tale of Jesus Christ, in which we hear of the Star of Bethlehem. At the time the Bible was written, the ancient peoples of the Middle East were already familiar with the constellations established by the Egyptians. As Maunder demonstrates, these would receive reference in the Bible also. Later in the book, Maunder investigates how astronomy influenced the ancient calendar and the measurement of time. The passing of the weeks and the marking of the festivals was aided by the phases of the moon and length of the day, giving astronomy a practical importance. Although working in science, the author maintained his lifelong Christian beliefs. One aim of this book is to show that religious beliefs and scientific observations of the stars can be reconciled. This edition of the text includes the crucial charts and illustrations, helping readers to understand the points raised in the text.
