Christian scriptures recount extraordinary events on a cosmic level at the time of Christ's birth - events that rivaled anything in written astronomical history. One event in particular involved the rise of the 'Star of Bethlehem,' a star heralding the arrival of the son of God. The hour-long documentary The Star of Bethlehem explores the historical data behind this miraculous event and the resonance of it through the centuries
Was the Star of Bethlehem a real astronomical event? A myth created by the early church? Explore the history and science for yourself...

@SmilyFaceEquilibrium If stars are pouring forth speech, tell me, what are they saying exactly? Sounds waves do not equal speech. I can bang a drum and create sound waves, but that's not words.

Psalm 19 1-4 talking about how the stars pour forth speech is actually sound waves.
which we just very recently in modern times discovered , its really absolutely amazing that they even knew about such a phenomenon back then! wow!
