My assumption is that everything in the Bible has a purpose, so all of it is worth illustrating--if the artists will oblige.

Hi Dan, thanks for posting this, a gravitational association between the Belt Stars of Orion and the Pleiades is something I’m not familiar with; ya got me on that one! I’m gonna have to look into that…
I love the Word of God describing the Heavens as we see them today.
It is quite a feeling that we are looking at the same stars, the same Sun and Moon and planets that all of God’s prophets, and Jesus himself looked upon.
To me, it makes a visual connection to the people and even events in the Bible.

Religion and Science, science and religion, they certainly do go hand-in-hand.
God is certainly the Master of it all.

To clarify, Pete: we're not asserting any association whatsoever between the Pleiades and Orion. Rather: the stars of the Pleiades cluster appear bound to one another, and they are in fact; the same is true of Orion's belt stars.

Lystra was a pagan city, the people thought Paul and Barnabas were the human incarnation of Jupiter and Mercury and wanted to venerate them.
