THE STAR OF BETHLEHEM BOOK ANNOUNCED

"An NJNS member and new E-Sylum subscriber Mike Molnar has a book being published in October. …I heard Mike give a mesmerizing talk about numismatic evidence of the Star of Bethlehem and how scientific evidence backs it up."

"Could the $50 purchase of an ancient coin by a Rutgers astronomer have unlocked the mystery of the Christmas Star? For years, scientists have looked, with little success, to astronomical records for an explanation of the magical star that guided the Magi to Christ's manger. Intrigued by the image he found on the latest addition to his coin collection, Michael Molnar thought there might be more to learn by looking, instead, at the teachings of ancient astrologers."

The clothbound book has 208 pages, 7 photos, and 24 figures. It will be available in October by calling toll free 1-800-446-9323 to order.
