[edit] Towards a re-examination of the trial of Galileo…
In 1633, Galileo was condemned by the Church for biblical and scientific reasons. Subsequently, science gradually proved that Galileo’s theory was correct. Joel Col reconsiders the ultimate phase of the trial of the astronomer: the contradiction of his new thesis with regard to the biblical verses sustained by the Church. In his work “Entre Galilée et l’Église : la Bible” (Between Galileo and the Church, the Bible...) the author analyzes the conflicting verses. He shows, through a comprehensive semantic study, that in the Hebrew and Greek Texts, the sun does not turn around the Earth, contrary to what the versions assert. He concludes that if the translations of the Bible had been faithful to the original Texts, Galileo would not have been condemned for “having held and believed a doctrine which is false and contrary to the divine and Holy Scripture.” As a result of his study, he clarifies the many debates held through the centuries and endeavours to align the translations of the Bible with their original Texts and to officially rehabilitate Galileo.
