The Bible focuses on spiritual matters, not the physical world. That's why it doesn't mention so many things that would be of interest (for example, the trade routes known at the various tmes the Books were written; population figures; manner of dress, etc.).

Because God didn't create any planets they are called stars. Planets are a lie made up by the luciferians that control your world. The world is flat, wake up, you are being lied to. The bible says the sun, moon and stars move not the earth. That is why no planets are mentioned in God's word, they are a lie!

The Bible mentions the Pleiades (sp?), Castor and Pollux, Orion, the Moon, the Sun, Venus, Mars and Saturn, among others, all through it. However, you are correct that the Bible was written to be understood from our perspective. It was a message to the people of earth, not others. @oldguy, the ancients knew the difference between planets and stars. They had mapped out the courses of the visible planets long ago (all up to Saturn).

Genesis 1:2 reads, In the beginning, when God created the universe, the earth was formless and desolate.
When God created the universe, that included the planets, the stars, and all the cosmos. And what is the definition of universe? "All matter and energy, including the earth, the galaxies, and the contents of intergalactic space, regarded as a whole (dictionary.com)."

Well, Bible doesnt mention planets, but there are so many other religious (and perhaps many as old as the bible, or even more so), that do mention some of the planets.

And God created the heavens and the earth, I believe that is how it is mentioned though no planets specifically.

the bible actuall ywould have mentioned the planets had the bible not been edited for political purposes. read the apocrypha, and follow the actual evolution of the bible as it transformed over time,
and you will realize that a lot of bible stuff is based in astrology.

Don't know where that guy got his info from, but it does say Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Heavens means solar system also.

I believe that it mentions that the heathen were worshiping the stars and the planets (only 4 can be seen with the naked eye), sorry I can not tell you were it says that.

for one thing, because not all planets were known to mankind at the time the bible was written.
