The Language of God in the Universe: Book 1 of The Language of God Series “The Language of God in the Universe” by Helena Lehman is book one in a series of four. Ms. Lehman begins her discussion by using Genesis 1 and Psalm 19. Scripture states that God created all things including the sun, moon, stars and planets. Genesis 1:14 reads, “be for signs and for seasons.” Using Hebrew words Ms. Lehman translates this to mean that the sun, moon, stars, planets and starry heavens are meant to be a “beacon of light” showing us the way to Yahweh. “The heavens are a remarkable monument revealing Yahweh’s power and greatness.” “Could the Zodiac have a divine foundation that has become distorted?” God condemned the Pagans for their wicked offense of assigning idolatrous and sacrilegious meanings to the Zodiac. “They therefore lost sight of Yahweh’s sovereignty over all Creation, and his ability to alter the course of lives for the better – despite the portents in the stars.” Astrology (fortune telling) has caused believers to turn away from Sacred Astronomy. Helena Lehman presents a compelling case for Sacred Astronomy in her book “The Language of God in the Universe.” She backs her statements with scripture and research. She presents her hypostasis in an orderly fashion. The transition from one fact/thought to another is smooth. This book is written in an easy to understand manner. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I opened this book, but I must say that Ms. Lehman has caused me to ponder hard on her ideas and perhaps sway me in my opinion. My only criticism would be the cover. It did not jump out at me and say, “Buy me, read me!” I’m glad I read this book. Well done, Ms. Lehman. I highly recommend this book to those enjoying non-fiction, Christian books and books that make you think. |
