I agree Bill G it makes no sense and any writer would be aware it just causes confusion.
Second HUGE problem, the Earth was the centre of the universe to these people and they would have no concept of a different time. People were sentenced to death for daring to suggest that earth wasn't the centre of the universe or that anywhere else existed.
You want an example even in the 1600's what would happen to you read the background of Giordano Bruno (

People were stoned to death for very little, I mean good old Virgin Mary almost met that fate. The idea that the concept of a different sort of time appearing in a religious scripture I find highly dubious.
Paul, you are going to need to find some evidence to convince me that sounds more like modern wishful thinking.
