Yes the sun revolves around the earth....it moves from east to west.
This is why Galileo a 15th century noted inventor, astronomer and mathmetical genius was excumminicated by the catholic church. The scriptures state that Joshua commanded the sun to STAND STILL! If the sun doesn't revolve around the earth then this command would be really stupid!
Ahhh but what if the bible was written from the standpoint of the scientific knowledge the observer would have at that time? At that time scientific knowledge had not progressed to the telescopic point. Everyone in general believed the sun revolved around the earth. If Joshua would have commanded the earth to stand still then his aids would have probably totted him off to the ole deranged camel bin. It simply would not have made sense at that time.
Einstein's theory of relativity seems to have some value here.
SOME BIBLICAL TRUTH IS RELATIVE TO THE SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE KNOWN AT THE "TIME" OF EXPLANATION. Surely the catholic church would not excommunicate Galileo in this modern day and age.
The point is scientific discovery of what is true is accelerating making some long held biblical understanding obsolete and
irrelevant. Some who have been cast out as apostate's may turn out to
to be yet another Galileo.
