The Witness of the Stars
"The Witness of the Stars" by E. W. Bullinger is a theological exploration written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the connections between astronomy and biblical prophecy, interpreting the signs of the zodiac and their meanings in relation to the coming of Christ. Bullinger aims to unveil the celestial witness to God's plan for humanity, suggesting that the constellations serve as a prophetic narrative about the Redeemer. The opening of the book presents a preface that sets the tone for the ensuing analysis. Bullinger reflects on the historical significance of ancient astronomical knowledge and its relation to scripture, emphasizing that God's message has always been present in the heavens. He hints at a comprehensive structure in his book, outlining that the signs in the sky, which have endured through time, narrate the story of the Redeemer's first coming, his atoning work, and ultimate triumph. The introduction includes discussions on passages from the Bible that claim the stars reveal God's glory and purposes, leading to a systematic examination of various constellations and their meanings throughout the chapters to come.
