My purpose in this paper is to consider the overall question of astronomy (the ancient mother of the sciences) in the scriptures. I will try to lay a background picture of the wide variety of astronomical allusions, statements, references, and knowledge which can be found in our books of scripture. Later presentations in the series will build on this background.
