The dream of Joseph Is the Oldest
document known In which the bright
ness OF the stars is referred to. In II
are mentioned the sun. moon and
twelve stars. which exceed all the other
heavenly bodies in splendor A French
astronomer has pointed out that II we
count the stars Of the first magnitude
seen In Egypt today we shall find just
twelve. for a thirteenth is of somewhat
doubtful brilllancy. These twelve stars
are also mentioned In an eyangel OF st.
John; hence the astronomer concludes
that the relative brightness of the stars
has not appraciably altered since the
times of the pharaohs.
