Do Old Testament texts substantiate Geocentrism

espanolA menudo leemos textos del Antiguo Testamento donde parece ponerse de manifiesto la idea de la tierra entendida como centro de la creacion con el sol moviendose a su entorno. Es lo comunmente conocido como geocentrismo (γeωκeντρισμός), formulacion perfectamente compatible con la filosofia contemporanea de fuerte matriz aristotelica. Nos encontramos, por lo tanto, en un periodo —que duraria varios siglos— donde el pensamiento teologico y el pensamiento filosofico cohabitan perfectamente. En el presente articulo se presentan algunos de estos textos veterotestamentarios, que literalmente coinciden con el generalizado geocentrismo de la epoca. Para ello, se han tomado ejemplos de distintos Libros correspondientes a etapas de redaccion diversas. EnglishWe often read excerpts from the Old Testament that appear to evince an understanding of the Earth as the centre of creation, with the Sun revolving around it. That conception is commonly known as Geocentrism (γeωκeντρισμός), a formulation perfectly consistent with the philosophy of that age, which was strongly rooted in Aristotelianism. Therefore, we are talking about a period which lasted for several centuries in which theological and philosophical thought coexisted faultlessly. This essay contains some such Old Testament texts, which prove to concur literally with the Geocentrism prevalent at the time. To that end, examples have been extracted from a number of Books pertaining to different writing stages.
