Synopsis

Arguably the oldest book in the Bible, the book of Job has a surprising amount to say about some of the newest scientific discoveries and controversies. Far from a book that is just about suffering, Job is filled with rich insight into both ancient and modern questions about: the formation of the world; the difference between animals and humans; cosmology; dinosaurs and the fossil record; how to care for creation, and more

With careful consideration and exegesis, internationally known astrophysicist and Christian apologist Hugh Ross adds yet another compelling argument to the case for the veracity of the biblical commentary on the history of the universe, Earth, life, and humanity. Hidden Treasures in the Book of Job shows that the Bible is an accurate predictor of scientific discoveries and a trustworthy source of scientific information, and that both the book of Scripture and the book of nature are consistent both internally and externally.

COSMOLOGY & ASTRONOMY: 1. The earth in space, affected only by gravity. While other sources declared the earth sat on the back of an elephant or turtle, or was held up by Atlas, the Bible alone states what we now know to be true.

Goodreads review by Ben on February 23, 2017

This was an interesting book but Hugh has clearly gone into the study with an Old Earth creationist presupposition. I found his arguments for that view to be unconvincing and some of his logic seems to be a stretch, for example he makes the claim that very few atheists that he has met live outside o......more

Goodreads review by Cathryn on January 27, 2022

Our God is an AWEsome God! I appreciated that this book made me deep think about science and my faith. Science is hard for me so I may not be the best to review the scientific aspect of his defenses. I can say that I really enjoyed learning how he brings the Word together with nature. I really enjoy......more
