Does the Bible contradict modern science-or confirm it? The Scripture and the Scientist presents 300 remarkable facts where ancient biblical claims align with-and in many cases anticipated-discoveries in cosmology, medicine, archaeology, biology, and physics.
Long before telescopes, microscopes, or germ theory, the Bible described:
- A spherical earth suspended in empty space (Job 26:7)
- The expansion of the universe (Isaiah 40:22)
- Deep-sea hydrothermal vents (Job 38:16)
- Quarantine laws for infectious disease (Leviticus 13)
- The optimal day for circumcision-day eight (Leviticus 12:3)
- The water cycle (Ecclesiastes 1:7)
- Hundreds more verified claims
From the Big Bang to the Pool of Siloam, from Hezekiah's Tunnel to the Dead Sea Scrolls, this comprehensive compendium brings together peer-reviewed research, archaeological discoveries, and medical evidence to show that Scripture and science are not enemies but allies.
Perfect for believers seeking confidence, skeptics testing the evidence, and anyone fascinated by the convergence of faith and fact. Over 281 facts expanded to 300 in this edition-fully indexed with biblical references and scientific sources.
