From Story of the Bible, Volume 4, about the sun dial itself. "Ahaz also showed a great curiosity towards astrology. It was probably associated with the pagan worship of the sun, moon and stars. He set up in Jerusalem a sun-dial which later became an important medium by which Yahweh manifested His power to Hezekiah, the son of this wicked king (Isa. 38:8). He made the shadow on the sun-dial go backward, an indication to all who cared to think about the matter that Yahweh was superior to the sun which some worshipped as a god." (Story of the Bible, Volume 4, page 55).  |
