Review of The Biblical Clock
Posted: 20 Jan 2023, 08:51
[Following is a volunteer review of "The Biblical Clock" by Daniel Friedmann and Dania Sheldon.]
When scholars debate about how long humanity has existed, they use the scriptures as a reference for their debates. While some scholars believe in the scriptures that humanity is a thousand years old. Scientists have their own beliefs about the age of the earth. The Biblical Clock: The Untold Secrets Linking the Universe and Humanity with God's Plan, by Daniel Friedmann and Dania Sheldon, is a book where the authors try to compare and contrasts these different beliefs.
They use the scriptures and compare them with historical events. Scientists believe solely in their calculations; they calculated the origin of humanity to be about a billion years old. This book tries to find common ground between the two schools of thought. What common ground was found by the authors? The authors give their answers to the debate in this book. To find out their answers, grab a copy.
One of the many reasons I enjoyed reading this book is because of the amount of research put in by the authors. They didn't just write about where they stood on the debate but gave answers from thorough research. They didn't just pit science and religion against each other but showed how the two corroborate with the findings of their research. I applaud the authors for their efforts, as conducting research of this magnitude must not have been easy. I enjoyed reading about the rabbis and scholars of the past that calculated and found results similar to those the scientists are getting.
The primary aim of reading books is to get more knowledge. This book teaches knowledge in abundance. The book educates readers on topics that are rarely taught in schools or even talked about. Readers are exposed to a world they are seldom used to, which forces them to think outside the box. I enjoyed how the authors used the Bible as a reference. It shows that one does not necessarily need to pick between religion or science. I like that the authors gave their analysis from a neutral perspective. Other books I've read either try to support religion or science, making their opinions biased.
I found no flaws in the book. I like the title of the book; it is a brief but accurate summary of the book. I found no errors in the book, indicating it was exceptionally well edited. I happily give this book a rating of 5 out of 5 stars. I recommend it to scholars. I also recommend it to those interested in science and biblical prophecies.
