To many people, science and the Christian faith are worlds apart. As a result, those who love both the Bible and science often have something to explain. Hasn’t science taken over the role of religion in our days? And what relevance can such an ancient book as the Bible possibly still have in our hypermodern times? This study attempts to elucidate the Bible’s continuing appeal and significance in an age characterized by science and ever more sophisticated technology. It does so by means of ten soundings in individual biblical texts, which are applied to the thought world of contemporary science. The results are remarkable and offer a lot of food for thought.
