Jesus Christ, our promised seed

Parts taken from Preface ...The coming of the Christ was by no means an unanticipated event. Indeed, the story of the coming redeemer was written in the stars when the heavens were originally put in order by God. The first part of this study examines the Biblical information regarding "his star" which was seen by the wise men. The Biblical record is enhanced and substantiated by astronomical and historical records which further underscore the magnitude of God's power and love in planning for our redemption. Once "his star" has been identified, the documentation of the very day and the time of day when the Christ was born can be pinpointed....As the research team and I considered and reconsidered the structure of this study, we went back and; forth trying to determine which part of this research should come first: the Biblical astronomy with its historical and scientific data or the prophecies and people associated with the promised seed. It became evident that the astronomy and its fixing of dates has to be this study's foundation as every succeeding chapter is affected by these dates. However, I am suggesting that you, the reader, determine which approach to reading seems most helpful to you.
