On another note. "Orion" was a hunter from Greek mythology and Pleiades represents the seven sisters of Atlas. If Job is the oldest book of the ever written then why would it have Greek names? Does the original Hebrew have "???. ???????, ?????" and "???????" where those two references are? I rather doubt it. Not really that surprising at all that the people in Job's day could see patterns in the stars and gave those patterns names. The stars were there as guides for traveling after all. Interestingly, the astrological symbols and their associated names were developed much earlier than that, and they have remained almost perfectly consistent throughout the ages. Amazingly, they are all symbols representing the work of Christ in the Earth, even down to the names of the stars. Fascinating study. I would recommend that you read The Witness of the Stars by Bullinger. He's a brilliant researcher, tracing astrology back to the earliest known sources.
