Beschreibung

Sun Stands Still tackles the fascinating question of whether science can explain the biblical account of Joshua's long day. It bridges Physics and Biblical Studies, exploring if atmospheric refraction could account for the perceived extended daylight.

 
The book uniquely aims to reconcile faith and science by investigating the scientific plausibility of this event, rather than dismissing it outright. One intriguing aspect explored is how light bends through atmospheric layers, potentially distorting our perception of time.

 
The book begins by establishing the historical and biblical context of the event in Joshua. It then transitions into a detailed examination of atmospheric refraction, explaining how it works and how it might have affected the perception of time during Joshua's battle. Theoretical models and meteorological principles are applied to the biblical narrative.

 
This approach allows for a balanced perspective, appealing to those interested in Science and Religion, and those engaged in Biblical Prophecy.

 
The analysis culminates in a discussion of the implications of either validating or refuting a scientific basis for the event. This exploration touches upon the ongoing debates surrounding miracles and offers a nuanced approach to navigating the intersection of scientific and religious explanations.

 
The book encourages informed skepticism and a deeper understanding of both scientific principles and religious beliefs.

    We tend to be perplexed by the psalmists who express delight in God's laws. We see biblical law as a long list of rules with harsh punishments, and the more we read the biblical law within modern legal frameworks, the stranger it appears. We are too estranged from its world, aims, and concerns to see its beauty and wisdom. 
     
    In Understanding Biblical Law, Dru Johnson 
    reorients the reader to see biblical law through ancient Israelite eyes. He deconstructs common myths regarding biblical law and shows how it often differs significantly from both modern law and ancient Near Eastern law. Johnson weaves in an ancient murder mystery between chapters to show how ancient Israelites could have reasoned with and through Torah to solve real-life problems. He then demonstrates how we can do the same by discerning biblical law's literary and historical contexts, appreciating its sophisticated wisdom, and distinguishing it from our modern legal notions. 
     
    This book is engaging and accessible for undergrads and laypeople but robust enough for seminarians. Johnson demonstrates a skill-based approach for interpreting Old Testament law and uses examples to encourage readers to practice these skills for themselves. 
     
    When we enter the biblical world, we see with the psalmists the beauty and sophistication of Israel's laws and discover a rich resource for thinking about the law's theological implications for Hellenistic Judaism, the New Testament, and readers today.
