Stay with me on this one. We are going to take a quick look at the history of astronomy and at astronomy as found in the Bible and it will be an interesting journey.

For thousands of years men would look up and count the stars.

Before the 17th century when the telescope was invented the number of stars were determined and the determination are interesting to say the least.

The great Ptolemy gave the number as 1,056, Tycho Brahhe catalogued 777 and Kepler counted 1,005.

Today it is agreed that in our own galaxy there are over one hundred billion stars, with probably billions of other galaxies like our own. Indeed, astronomers now agree it is not humanly possible to count all the stars.

A few centuries ago, scientist would have said, “yes, you can count the stars.”

However in Jeremiah 33:22 you can read, :”The host of heaven cannot be numbered.”: In 1402, Christopher Columbus was considered carazy when he wanted to sail on beyond where the majority of folk believed he would fall off the edge of the earth. “The world is flat,” it was commonly agreed by most.


And in Job 26:7, you can read, “He hangeth the earth upon nothing.”

In Isaiah 40:22, you can read a description of God, “It is He who sitteth upon the circle of the earth.”

In Psalm 102:25,26, we read, "Of old hast Thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of Thy hands. They shall perish, but Thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt Thou change them, and they shall be changed."

A council of citizens was summoned to decide what to do…whether to try to defend themselves or fly a white flag of surrender…”
