Hugh Ross also points out a fascinating fulfilled prophecy that God made about Orion in Job, c.4,000 years ago:

“Can you bind the chains of the Pleiades? Can you loosen Orion’s belt?"

It is a claim that both the Pleiades cluster and the three stars which comprise the belt of Orion the Hunter are, in fact, as they appear to be: gravitationally bound to one another. It is a truth-claim that could not be tested until 20th Century telescopes proved its veracity.

To: Hebrews 11:6

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.
