Christ in the Constellations
Excerpt: Christ in the Constellations
The Book of Job is the oldest of the Old-Testament books. It is commonly accepted that events related in the Book of Job occurred in the Patriarchal Age somewhere around 2,000-2,200 BC. There are more references to the zodiac in Job than in any other book of the Bible. When we look through the Old Testament, we find several references to the zodiac. It is clear that Job and his culture, as well as biblical cultures hundreds of years later, were thoroughly familiar with the zodiac. Here are some biblical references to the zodiac.
The Zodiac in general
- He did away with the pagan priests appointed by the kings of Judah to burn incense on the high places of the towns of Judah and on those around Jerusalem--those who burned incense to Baal, to the sun and moon, to the constellations and to all the starry hosts. 2 Kings 23:5
- Can you bring forth the constellations in their seasons… Job 38:32
- The stars of heaven and their constellations will not show their light. The rising sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light. Isaiah 13:10
The word for constellation in these verses is the Hebrew word Mazzeroth, and it means the zodiac and its twelve constellations. This point is important, because the implication here is that God used the constellations to convey His message to mankind. God speaks to Job and states that He brought forth the constellations. Surely, God had a reason for creating the constellations. It was to reveal His redemptive message to the world.
