The Old Bible And The New Science: An Essay And Four Lectures (1877)

By Jesse Burgess Thomas

Book Overview

The Old Bible and the New Science is a book written by Jesse Burgess Thomas in 1877. The book is an essay and four lectures that explore the relationship between the Bible and science. Thomas argues that the Bible and science are not in conflict, but rather complement each other. He believes that the Bible contains spiritual truths that cannot be discovered through science, while science provides a deeper understanding of the physical world. Thomas also discusses the importance of interpreting the Bible in light of scientific discoveries, rather than rejecting science in favor of literal interpretations of the Bible. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between religion and science, and remains relevant today as debates continue over the compatibility of these two fields.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
