The Witness of the Stars

"The Witness of the Stars" by E. W. (Ethelbert William) Bullinger is a book from the late 1800s that tries to link the stars and Bible predictions. It looks at the zodiac signs to explain how they relate to Jesus's arrival. Bullinger wants to show that the sky tells a story about God's plan for people, saying that the constellations are like a prophecy about Jesus. The book starts with a preface that talks about how important ancient star knowledge is to the Bible, stressing that God has always talked to us through the heavens. It suggests that the signs in the sky tell the story of Jesus's first coming, his sacrifice, and final victory. The introduction also talks about Bible verses that say the stars show God's glory and plans, which will lead to a closer look at different constellations and what they mean in the chapters that follow.
