THE EGYPTIAN ASTRONOMERS. HERO
DOTUS, AND THE BOOK OF JOSHUA.

"Aud the sun stood still aud the moon
stayed."-Joshna x. 13.
Sir,-Can you find room for a short
letter that will interest some OF your
readers, aud may absolutely prove the
mathematical truth of a remarkable pas
sage ia the Bible? 10 the 142nd para
graph Of the 2nd book of Herodotus it is
stated that the Egyptian priests said: "In
11,340 years no god had assumed the form
Of man, neither, they said, had any such
thing occurred before or afterwards in the
time of the remaining kings of Egypt.
During this time, they said, that the sun
had risen four times in an unusual man
ner and that he had twice risen where
he now sets, and had twice sci where he
now ~rises."s IF this narrative of the
Egyptian priests is correct the matter
stands thus:-The third part of l1,340
years. being $3.50 years, and the sun hav-
ing risen 10 Egypt in the reign Of Menes,
rs it rosei in the time of Herodotus, then i n
$3.50 years it rose SO again.
and in $3.50 years IT rose so a second time,
aud in 3,7S0 years it rose to HerodotuS;
, 1869-04-09
11,34O wears.

Aud the pole OF The earth travelling about
or around the pole of the ecllptic at the
rate of 10 23' As" in 100 years, described
in $3.50 years an arc of $40 go 30", and,
like a pendulum, returned upon its course.
Consequently the sun in 11.340 years had
four times risen in an unusual manner,
and the sun and moon had stood still
four times; and the relative position of
: places. north and south of the equlnoctIal,
had been reversed thrice. Moreover, by
determining correctly the date of Joshua's
victory, the time may be ascertained
when the sun and moon will again stand
still. There are then 20 questions raised
for the consideration of your mathematical
and astronomical readers.
/. Does the pole of the earth complete
q circle round the pole of the ecliptic;
or does ii vibrate in an arc, aud the
length of The arc9
2. Then, by determining the date OF
Joshua's victory, to ascertain when the
sun and moon will again stand still.
Iremain, Sir, yours truly.
