Abstract

Trusting that the subject may not be thought entirely out
of place in the Transactions of the Royal Society of Tasmania
or altogether uninteresting to its members, I have ventured
to throw together a few brief notices of the Science of
Astronomy as known amongst the ancient Jews, taking
encouragement from the circumstance, that as a lineal descendant
of that people I may possess readier access to their
records than a stranger could have.
