In his introduction to an English translation of the book, Charles Glenn Wallis explains: “The dissensions between Catholics and Protestants made both sects fearful of any scandal which might appear to undermine respect for the Church of the Bible, and consequently they became over - literal in their reading of Scripture and were inclined to condemn any assertion which could be construed as contradicting any literal interpretation of any passage in the Bible. ”
Čārlzs Glens Voliss Kopernika grāmatas angļu valodas izdevuma ievadā rakstīja: ” Katoļu un protestantu savstarpējo nesaskaņu dēļ abas sektas baidījās no jebkāda skandāla, kas varētu mazināt cieņu pret Baznīcu, kura lieto Bībeli, un tāpēc tās sāka pārāk burtiski skaidrot Svētos Rakstus un nosodīja jebkuru apgalvojumu, kas varētu likties pretrunā ar kāda Bībeles panta burtisku skaidrojumu. ”
