Joshua's Long Day And The Dial Of Ahaz: A Scientific Vindication And A Midnight Cry (1890) - Paperback

by Charles Adiel Lewis Totten (Author)

""Joshua's Long Day and the Dial of Ahaz"" is a book written by Charles Adiel Lewis Totten in 1890. The book presents a scientific explanation for the biblical story of Joshua commanding the sun and moon to stand still in the sky, as well as the story of King Hezekiah's miraculous sundial. Totten argues that these events were not supernatural miracles, but rather natural phenomena that can be explained through astronomy and physics. He also uses these stories as evidence for the accuracy and divine inspiration of the Bible. The book is written in a scholarly style and includes detailed scientific explanations, as well as references to other works on the subject. The title ""A Midnight Cry"" refers to the author's belief that the events described in the Bible are a warning of the end times and the imminent return of Christ. Overall, ""Joshua's Long Day and the Dial of Ahaz"" is a unique blend of science and religion, offering a new perspective on familiar biblical stories.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
