Tower of Babel and E. W. Bullinger's appendix "The Stars Also"
An interesting side study you can enjoy if you own E. W. Bullinger's companion Bible ( recommended by Pastor Murray ) Is Appendix 12 titled "The Stars Also".
Years ago I would never even think of associating the Zodiac with The Bible.
Bullinger proposes Gen 1, 14-19 which states stars "are for Signs and seasons, and for days and years" is the true historical basis for man's celestial knowledge: Almost saying the Zodiac may be a water down or fragmented understanding of original astrological knowledge and mapping passed down from God.
To exemplify this point Bullinger even questions how we look at the Tower of Babel.
Bullinger says "We see evidence of it as early as Gen 11. 4, where we readof the Tower of Babel having "his top with the supplied italics "may reach unto". The words, doubtless, the Tower, like the Zodiacs in the Temples of Denderah, and Esneh in Egypt."
