MOSES AND THE BURNING BUSH ON MOUNT HOREB: ALEXANDER III THE GREAT AND CALANUS.

Before you read this online article: please understand I’m not a connoisseur or a high-level guru, I’m just an average guy into alternative research.

MOSES AND THE BURNING BUSH ON MOUNT HOREB: ALEXANDER III THE GREAT AND CALANUS.

“Meanwhile Moses was tending the flock of his father-in-law Jethro, the priest of Midian. Leading the flock across the desert, he came to Horeb, the mountain of God. There an angel of the Lord appeared to him in fire flaming out of a bush. As he looked on, he was surprised to see that the bush, though on fire, was not consumed.”

(Exodus 3:1-2)

Everyone has heard the fascinating story of Moses and the burning bush, it is a tale of supernatural phenomenon. This well-known episode in the Old Testament it’s a decisive moment when the Lord God reveals his ineffable name to Moses, the first time he has revealed his name to anyone. The burning bush is located on Mount Horeb, on modern-day Sinai in Egypt. When Moses beheld the bush, it was on fire but it was not burned by the flames. Yhwh, the God of Abraham, the God of Yitzhak, and the God of Yaakob, told his servant Moses that he had seen the affliction of his people Israel in Egypt. He promises to rescue them and bring them out of Egypt into the land of milk and honey, the good and spacious land of Canaan, in Syria-Palestine.

And who is he that will face great pharaoh and tell him that Yhwh Himself has promised to lead the Israelites out of Egypt? Who is the champion that will tell pharaoh ‘Let my people go’? Moses the Levite, son of Jochebed. In Exodus 3:19 Yhwh tells Moses that the king of Egypt will not set him free unless he is forced. Basically, Moses Ben Levi is Israel’s messiah.

(Moses versus Ramses II. The Ten Commandments, a classic film from 1956 directed by Cecil B. DeMille)

This Biblical tale is very compelling but unfortunately it is a false construct, a lie. Moses didn’t speak to the angel of the Lord in Mount Sinai, Egypt. In fact, the entire episode is based on something that transpired in Persia in 324 B.C.E. The scribes who wrote the Pentateuch decided to tell the tale of Alexander III the Great, king of Macedonia, when the Brahmin priest Calanus joined his army at Taxila in modern-day Punjab, between the Indus and the Jhelum (south of Gandhara). At Persepolis, after falling ill during the crossing of the Gedrosian desert, the gymnosophist Calanus decided to commit suicide by fire according to his own religious customs. He was seriously ill. Instead of continuing to suffer, he persuaded Alexander to agree to it. The Macedonians were astonished as he climbed a funeral pyre and lay motionless as he was consumed by the flames. As the flames licked at his flesh, the soldiers raised their war cry and elephants trumpeted during Calanus’s immolation. After the amazing spectacle Alexander marched his troops back to Susa in Persia.

The scribes who wrote the Bible encoded Alexander as Moses and masqueraded Calanus as the angel in the flames. Time dilation-length contraction! They transplanted Alexander and Calanus back in time from Persia to ancient Egypt.

(Alexander III the Great, king of Macedonia, son of Philip II and Olympias. Born in Pella, Macedonia on July 20, 356 B.C.E., died of fever in Babylon on June 10, 323 B.C.E.)

The Calanus episode took place in 324 B.C.E., way after Ramsses II and Seti I of the XIX dynasty. The Israelites who left Egypt en masse for Canaan were the Hyksos who were expelled by Ahmose I, founder of the XVIII dynasty (before Ramsses II). The Hyksos solidified their rule in Avaris, Lower Egypt during the XV and XVI dynasties, they were invaders from the north. After their decisive defeat by Ahmose I, they settled in Sharuhen in southern Palestine, then they traveled up to northern Syria. A few years later the followers of pharaoh Akhenaten were forced to flee Egypt during the reign of Horemheb. The priests of Amun considered Akenaton a heretic, his followers were treacherous criminals that could not be forgiven, they were like lepers. They were exiled and they settled in Palestine.

(pharaoh Amenhotep IV, also known as Akhenaten. The reformer Akhenaten turned Egypt upside-down with his monotheistic religion of the Aten. His sun-worship cult resembles Yahweh monotheism to some extent)

So, the sages who created the Bible put three Exoduses in a blender and gave us a final story, an official narrative. They took the exodus of the Hyksos, the exodus of the despised priests of Akhenaten, and the exodus of the Macedonians marching back from India to the Gedrosian desert in Makran, southern Iran. Three different events were turned into one mega-event in a timeline. The marching back homeward of the Macedonians took place on Sept-Oct 325 B.C.E., Alexander had invaded India back in 327 B.C.E. The scribes at the service of Ptolemy I Soter made us believe that Ramsses II was the arch-villain who oppressed the Israelites.

(Pharaoh Ramsses II the Great, buried in tomb KV 7, in the Valley of the Kings, in Thebes. Genesis 47:11 says Joseph settled his father Yaakov and his brothers in the region of Rameses, in Goshen)

Hollywood has programmed us to believe that bearded Moses had a profound mystical experience in Mount Sinai, in an ecstatic trance he received a divine revelation from God. This is fiction! The tale of Moses and the burning bush was concocted by Ptolemy I Soter, who became king-pharaoh in Egypt in 305 B.C.E., after the death of Alexander in 323 B.C.E.

Ptolemy I Soter was one of Alexander’s elite generals. He was born in Macedonia around 367 B.C.E., the son of Lagus and Arsinoe. Ptolemy served Alexander wholeheartedly during his Panhellenic expedition from 334 to 323 B.C.E. (he was one of his confidants). After the death of Alexander in Babylon in 323 B.C.E. the empire was shattered, Ptolemy’s aim was to possess the rich and self-contained satrapy of Egypt, not succeed Alexander as lord of Asia. Sagacious Ptolemy became king-pharaoh in 305 B.C.E., he reshaped Egypt as a hybrid Greco-Egyptian kingdom and transformed Alexander from a heroic Macedonian king to a universal god. Ptolemy devised an imaginative fusion of Alexander, Ptah, and himself.

(Alexander was crowned as pharaoh in Egypt on November 14, 332 B.C.E., he was given the royal title ‘Setepenre Meryamun.’ Alexander offers a libation to the Egyptian god Amun-Min, relief on the outer wall of the sanctuary in the temple of Amun at Luxor)

Basically, the Macedonians that conquered Asia re-invented themselves as ‘Ioudaioi’ (Jews), a hybrid Euro-Asian elite destined to rule the brave new world created by their messiah Alexander. They went from polytheism to kosher-monotheism. Ptolemy I Soter is the real lawgiver of the Jewish people, the engine behind the creation of the Torah, the political constitution of Israel. The Septuagint was translated from Hebrew to Greek by seventy-two scribes in the Island of Pharos off the coast of Alexandria. It is said that the work was completed in the days Ptolemy II Philadelphus (284-246 B.C.E.).

(Ptolemy I Soter died in Egypt either on 283 or 282 B.C.E., he was succeeded by his son Ptolemy II Philadelphus, born in 309 or in 308 B.C.E.)

CALANUS: COME NO NEARER!

How do we know that the scribes who created the book of Exodus encoded Calanus as the flaming angel of Yhwh? Well, they gave us a few hints. The Indian sadhu Calanus, the mysterious ascetic Brahman from Taxila who accompanied Alexander through his campaign in India, he gained a great reputation as an oracle and philosopher with Alexander’s troops. The monk sowed no seeds, built no home, and wore no clothes. He displayed an absolute contempt for the comforts of civilized life.

If we examine Chapter 3 of the book of Exodus we’ll see that the Lord God called out to Moses from the bush and tells Moses to come no nearer (Exodus 3:5). As we already know, Alexander invaded India in 327 B.C.E. When he set out for the Hypasis, the Beas, to subdue the peoples beyond it, his army mutinied. They had marched thousands of miles and since it had left the Jhelum, the heat was suffocating and the rain was incessant. It is astonishing to see that the troops endured such hardships for so long.

It is said that Alexander offered sacrifices for the passage of the Beas but that the oracle proved to be unfavorable. Eventually Alexander made known to the army that he had resolved to march back to Babylon. His soldiers rejoiced wildly. On the way back home, at Pasargade, Calanus became deadly ill, he was experiencing excruciating suffering. The monk decided to commit suicide by fire and Alexander gave his consent. It is said that when Alexander tried to approach Calanus to say a final goodbye, Calanus stepped back; he did not want to be touched by the king (Calanus avoided physical contact). He told Alexander that he would see him in Babylon. Calanus climbed the funeral pyre and expired amidst the flames.

This is why in Exodus 3:5 the Lord God says to Moses “Come no nearer.” This is a reference to Calanus avoiding being touched by Alexander before his departure from the physical world. The angel of God mentioned in Exodus 3:5 was a black haired-brown skinned Hindu.

MY NAME IS “IT SHALL BE THAT IT SHALL BE.”

Exodus 3:5 says that the Lord God told Moses to remove his sandals from his feet, for the place where he is standing is in holy ground. When we read this Biblical passage we’re under the impression that this event transpired in Mount Horeb, in Sinai-Egypt (Exodus 3:1). In Exodus 3:14 God reveals to Moses his sacred name “It shall be that it shall be”, ‘Yeheyeh Asher Yeheyeh’ in Hebrew. The English translation is “I am who I am.” This utterance seems to be the source for the name Yahweh (יהוה).

(The name ‘Yeheyeh Asher Yeheyeh’ contains two of the letters found in the Tetragrammaton, Yud [י] and Heh [ה], but not the Vav [ו]. The name Yhwh is a reference to Jove-Zeus. The Javan mentioned in Genesis 10:2 is Greece, Javan sounds like Jove. The Hittites knew Achaea in Greece as ‘Ahhiyawah‘: Ahi-Yawah = Yhwh)

The holy name is Janus-like, symmetrical, of balanced proportion: “It shall be that it shall be.” ‘It shall be’ is on the right (Yeheyeh: אהיה, ‘That’ is in the middle (Asher: אשר), and ‘It shall be’ is on the left (Yeheyeh: אהיה). This sacred name is an encryption-code for Alexander’s vast empire stretching from Macedonia to Pakistan (India). The center, the headquarters of his empire was Babylon, not too far from Susa (Shoshan: שושן). Let us not forget that Alexander had been proclaimed pharaoh in Memphis on November 14, 332 B.C.E. He became the undisputed master of Asia on October 1, 331 B.C.E. when he defeated Darius III in the battle of Arbela. So, the holy name mentioned in Exodus 3:14 represents Alexander’s vast multi-ethnic empire. The word ‘Asher’ in the center of the name (אשר) symbolizes the stronghold of Susa, it contains the letter ‘Shin’: ש.

What does this have to do with the Brahmin priest Calanus? Tradition says that on the stately appearance of Alexander and his huge army at Taxila, naked Brahman ascetics standing by the roadside stamped their feet on the ground, as if Alexander and his men didn’t exist. When the great Macedonian general inquired of their theatrical behavior, Calanus laid before him an illustration of state government. It is said that Calanus threw down upon the ground a dry shriveled hide and set his foot upon the outer edge of it. The hide was pressed down in one place but rose up in another. Calanus stepped all around the hide and showed this was the outcome wherever he pressed the edge down. Finally, he stood in the middle of it and it was all held down firm. Calanus used a metaphor to show Alexander, the greatest conquistador of all time, that it was in his best interest to stop the invasion of India. Alexander ought to put most constraint in the center of his empire, in Babylon, and wander not far away from it.

This is why Exodus 3:5 says that Moses must remove his sandals from his feet, for the place where he is standing is in holy ground. The holy ground is mystical India, meaning the land that vomited Alexander’s army. Alexander must march back to Babylon through the Gedrosian desert in Baluchistan (Iran).

The sacred name “It shall be that it shall be” is Calanus’s prophecy for Alexander. Right before climbing the funeral pyre at Persepolis, Calanus told Alexander not to come near him. He told the king that he would see him in Babylon. Basically, in 324 B.C.E. Calanus predicted that after leaving India, Alexander would die soon afterwards in 323 B.C.E. In October 324 B.C.E. Alexander experienced a cruel blow with the sudden death of his close companion Hephaestion from a malignant fever (Ecbatana, Media). Soon after Alexander died of a sudden fever in Babylon, in the palace of Nebuchadnezzar, on June 10, 323 B.C.E. Some believe he was poisoned.  Either way, Calanus’s omen proved to be true.

LET MY PEOPLE GO! PHARAOH’S OBDURACY.

After that, Moses and Aaron went to pharaoh and said, “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Let my people go, that they may celebrate a feast to me in the desert.”

(Exodus 5:1)

We have been conditioned to believe that the pharaoh who refused to heed Yhwh’s plea to let Israel go is Ramsses II. This is wrong. As far-fetched as this might sound, the pharaoh keeping the people hostage is Alexander, not Ramsses II or Ahmose I. The tale of stubborn pharaoh oppressing his captives is the tale of Alexander forbidding his troops to leave India and return to the motherland Macedonia. The expedition against king Darius III of Persia started in 334 B.C.E., Darius was vanquished in 331 B.C.E., Alexander became master of Asia. In 327 B.C.E. Alexander set out for his endless campaign in India. In May 326 B.C.E. Alexander fought his last great battle against Rajah Porus, the Macedonians prevailed despite Porus’s war elephants. But later on at the Hyphasis river, with the plains and forests of India and countless battles opening up before them, Alexander’s army mutinied. After many years of constant fighting and with no end in sight, they were completely exhausted. The hardships, the heat, the rain…They had enough, they wanted to go back to Macedonia.

Conferences were held throughout the Macedonian camp, a certain Coenus was the spokesman for the troops. Many men openly declared that they would no longer follow Alexander any farther. It is said that Alexander retired to his tent to think matters over for three days. He offered sacrifices for the passage of the Beas and when he saw that the omen was not favorable he capitulated. In 326 B.C.E. the army turned back to Babylon, the heart of Alexander’s empire. On Sept-Oct 325 B.C.E. Alexander led 85, 000 soldiers and camp followers across the dry and inhospitable Gedrosian desert in Balushistan (Iran). The troops were greatly distressed by hunger and thirst. The ragged army left a trail of corpses in its wake, only 25, 000 survived. Alexander’s route took him back to Pasargadae, from there he headed to Susa.

The story of Israel’s wandering in the desert is an offshoot of ancient Macedonia. According to Exodus 5:3 Moses and Aaron told pharaoh that the God of the Hebrews sent them word that they go on a three-day journey in the desert, that they may offer sacrifice to the Lord. The three-day journey is equivalent to the three days Alexander took to think things over in his royal tent (in India). The plagues of frogs, gnats, flies, pestilence, boils, etc, mentioned in the book of Exodus, these are the hardships that Alexander’s army endured in the forests of India.

(Sculpture of Hephaestion Amyntoros, Prado/Spain. The plague of dense darkness mentioned in Exodus 10:21 is linked to the death of Hephaestion in 324 B.C.E. After his death Alexander temporarily shut down the temples of Ahura Mazda, supreme god of Zoroastrism. Ahura Mazda is the god of light)

ANAKIM: THE OFFSPRING OF THE NEPHILLIM.

So they spread discouraging reports among the Israelites about the land they had scouted, saying, “The land that we explored is a country and consumes its inhabitants. And all the people we saw there are huge men, veritable giants [the Anakim were a race of giants]; we felt like mere grasshoppers, and so we must have seemed to them.”

(Numbers 13:32-33)

The book of Numbers says when the twelve scouts of the Israelites reconnoitered the promised land of Canaan they saw fierce men there, giants. They were fainthearted, the whole community broke out in loud cries against Moses and Aaron. This Biblical tale is based on the revolt of the Macedonian troops against their overlord Alexander in India. The Macedonian morale had been broken down by rumors magnified by fear of the unknown, exhaustion, suffocating heat and incessant rain. Spokesmen for the army told Alexander not to lead the army against their will, for they would no longer fight the same men in regard to hardships and dangers.

There were rumors that the country beyond the Beas was inhabited by valiant men of great stature, with innumerable elephants. The Macedonians had enough of countless battles, they wanted to return home and see their wives and children. Basically, the scribes who wrote the book of Numbers encoded the tale of the Macedonian revolt in India and made it look like it happened in Syria-Palestine. The race of giant warriors mentioned in Numbers 13:32-33 were not light-skinned Caucasians like the Hurrians who lived in Palestine in the days of pharaoh Merneptah, they were black haired-dark skinned Hindus.

(Black obelisk of Shalmanaser III, British museum of London. The Caananite king Yaua the son of Humri, bowed to Shalmanaser III, king of Assyria. Yaua was a Hurrian, a Caucasian-Armenoid type)

CONCLUSION.

Ptolemy I Soter is the true lawgiver of the Jewish people, he is the creator of the Pentateuch. Exodus 24:9-10 says that the Israelite elite beheld the God of Israel as he was of human form, this is a clear reference to Ptolemy, who re-created himself as Ptah-Alexander-Ptolemy. Ptolemy took an essential role in Alexander’s postmortem future, in 321 B.C.E. he stole his corpse in Syria when it was on its way to Macedonia. Alexander’s reputation as the greatest conqueror in history made his body a magnet for soldiers who would flock to the banner of his successor, Alexander’s tomb would become the center of a religious cult. Ptolemy transferred Alexander’s body to Memphis and then to Alexandria.

Ptolemy made sure a legend would circulate and rewrite history by denying that Alexander was Philip II’s son and making him the offspring of pharaoh Nectanebo II. The legend says that the last indigenous pharaoh of Egypt fled Egypt for Macedonia in 343 B.C.E., there he disguised himself as Zeus-Ammon, he fathered Alexander on Olympias. Thus Alexander was the legitimate heir to the throne of Egypt, a pharaoh and a living god.

Alexander founded the city of Alexandria on April 7, 331 B.C.E., the emblem for Alexander’s cult in Alexandria were the snakes. A legend says that Philip II dreamt of sealing Olympias’s vulva with wax and later spied her embracing a serpent. When Alexander and his entourage made their perilous journey through the Siwah desert to consult the oracle of Amun, two snakes slithered near his feet, guiding him to the Temple. It is said that a great serpent called Agathos Daimon slithered out of the ground during the building of Alexandria in Lower Egypt. The Alexandrians worshipped the serpent born son of Zeus-Amun on the anniversary of the city’s foundation.

(Alexander visited the oracle of Siwah in Libya in 332/331 B.C.E., Ptolemy shared the perilous desert journey)

This is why Exodus 7:10 says that when Aaron was accompanied by Moses, he threw his staff before pharaoh and it became a snake. Exodus 7:12 says that pharaoh’s sorcerers, each one threw down his staff and it was changed into a snake. Aaron’s staff swallowed theirs. To this very day orthodox Jews wear black boxes attached to black leather straps tied with special knots called Tefillin. One is coiled around the arm like a serpent (Shel Yad), and the other one on the head, adjusted to fit snugly (Shel Rosh). Inside the two boxes are strips of parchment that are hand-written by a scribe, it consists of Biblical verses in which Tefillin are commanded. The leather straps with the boxes are made from the skin of a cow, this is a throwback to the cult of the Apis. The Apis was the incarnation of Ptah and the very name Egypt emanates from Ptah: Aigyptos = Hekaptah.

“Let this, then, be as a sign on your hand and as a pendant on your forehead: with a strong hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt”.

(Exodus 13:16)

(Alexander couldn’t become lord of Asia without Egypt’s blessing, in 332 B.C.E. he marched into Persian-occupied Egypt and was crowned as pharaoh. On Oct 1, 331 B.C.E. he defeated Darius III at Gaugamela)

ADDITIONAL INFO.

The Catholic version of the book of Esther has additional verses that make references to Alexander the Great. Esther chapter A:5 for example mentions two great dragons poised for combat, these are Alexander and Darius III (before Chapter 1). Esther chapter E:10, defines Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite as a Macedonian, not of Persian blood (before chapter 8). Haman is the descendant of Agag because Agag is a code for Aegae (Vergina), the capital of ancient Macedonia. Esther chapter E:14 says that Haman tried to transfer the rule of the Persians over to the Macedonians (before chapter 8). Haman is really Amun. Alexander is known as Zul Carnaein, the horned one, he wore the crown of Zeus-Amun and in Egypt he honored the deity Amun-Min. Finally, the text of Esther mentions Susa several times because in 324 B.C.E. Alexander arranged mass weddings in Susa. He made eighty-seven of his companions and ten-thousand ordinary Macedonian soldiers marry Asian women.

THE BOOK OF JUDITH DECRYPTED: THE ROMAN EMPEROR MARCUS ULPIUS TRAIANUS ENCODED AS NEBUCHADNEZZAR.

Before you read this online article: please understand I’m not a connoisseur, a clairvoyant intuitive, or a psychic medium. I’m just an average guy into alternative research.

THE BOOK OF JUDITH DECRYPTED: THE ROMAN EMPEROR MARCUS ULPIUS TRAIANUS ENCODED AS NEBUCHADNEZZAR.

PART I.

The apocryphal book of Judith is a vivid tale relating how in a time national stress, the Lord God delivered the Jewish people through the instrumentality of a woman. Nebuchadnezzar, king of Assyria, lord of the earth, threatened the sovereignty of the inhabitants of Jerusalem. Nebuchadnezzar had conquered the Medes, there was no way the Judeans could resist his vast army. A Jewish widow named Judith decided to take a fresh approach, she would use her charm to seduce Nebuchadnezzar’s general-in-chief and second in command: Holofernes. Judith went to the camp of the Assyrians, pretending to be a deserter. She appealed to Holofernes, she postrated herself to him. She managed to get Holofernes drunk, once he fell asleep she cut his head off with a sword. A single Hebrew woman brought disgrace to the house of Nebuchadnezzar.

By the time the Assyrians discovered Holofernes’s headless corpse on the floor of the royal tent, Judith was gone. A loud clamor of weeping swept amongst the Assyrian troops, the commanders of the army were seized with consternation. At that point, when the Assyrians were disoriented, the Israelites engaged the them in battle. The Assyrians fled in all directions. Thus the Temple of God on Mount Zion was spared, thanks to the machinations of a woman.

(Judith and Holofernes, painting by Spanish artist Francisco de Goya [1746-1828])

This is a very compelling Biblical story but unfortunately it is a false construct, a fairy tale. No Hebrew woman beheaded the commander-in-chief of Nebuchadnezzar’s troops in Palestine, the whole thing is a pathological lie. The scribes who created the Bible decided to tell the tale of the Roman emperor Marcus Ulpius Traianus through the personage of Nebuchadnezzar. The ‘Holofernes’ mentioned in the book of Judith symbolizes the saga of Trajan in Asia Minor from 114-117 A.D. plus the 67-70 A.D. campaign of the Vespasians in Syria-Palestine. Trajan invaded Parthia through Mesopotamia and conquered Ctesiphon, Assyria fell to him. Armenia, buffer-state lying between the frontier of Rome and Parthia, was turned into a Roman protectorate. Trajan did not wage an utterly ferocious siege against Jerusalem, he blasted Dacia north of the Danube from 101 to 106 A.D. (modern-day Romania).

(Portrait of the emperor-soldier Marcus Ulpius Traianus, Museo Capitolino, Rome. Trajan was responsible to three major extensions to the Roman empire: Dacia, Nabatea, and Armenia & Mesopotamia)

The book of Judith was written sometime after the death of emperor Hadrian, Trajan’s cousin and successor. Publius Aelius Hadrianus was Rome’s fourteenth emperor, he ruled from 117 to 138 A.D. Hadrian was acclaimed emperor while in Antioch, Syria on August 11, 117 A.D. Trajan had died in Selinus, Cilicia three days earlier. This is why the book of Judith associates Nebuchadnezzar with Cilicia in southern Turkey.

(Hadrian was born in Rome on January 24, 76 A.D, he died on July 10, 138 A.D. He was the son of Senator Aelius Hadrianus Afer, born in Italica, Baetica. Hadrian’s mother was an aristocrat that hailed from Cadiz, Spain)

MARCUS ULPIUS TRAIANUS: FIRST PROVINCIAL EMPEROR OF ROME.

Who was Marcus Ulpius Traianus? Trajan was the first provincial emperor of Rome, meaning that he was the first ruler of Rome born outside Italy, he was born in Italica, near Seville (Spain). People called him ‘Optimus Princeps’, his birth is said to have been around September 18 of the year 53 A.D. The elderly emperor Nerva adopted Trajan as his own son in October 97 A.D., he gave him the title ‘Caesar Divi Nervae filius Nerva Traianus.’ Trajan was the natural son of decorated veteran Marcus Ulpius Traianus, he served under the command of the Vespasians during the siege against Jerusalem from 67 to 69 A.D. Under Flavian patronage Marcus Ulpius Traianus senior commanded the Tenth Legion Fretensis, from 67 to 69 A.D. From 73 to 77 or 78 A.D. he was governor of Syria. In 112 A.D. Trajan the son deified his father.

Trajan reigned from 98 until 117 A.D, prior to that he led successful campaigns in Syria, in Spain, and in Germany during the reign of the Flavian emperors. Domitian favored Trajan, he was made praetor in 85 A.D. and consul in 91 A.D. On January 28, 98 A.D. Trajan was proclaimed emperor of Rome while in Cologne, Germany, he took the title ‘Caesar Nerva Traianus Germanicus.’

Trajan defeated Parthia (Persia) though he was not able to subdue them completely, the Parthian war lasted from 114 to 117 A.D. Out of the Parthian empire he carved out the provinces of Assyria and Mesopotamia, he recaptured the client-kingdom of Armenia. In Syria beyond the Jordan the old Nabatean kingdom was renamed Arabia Petrae, Bostra became its capital.

There were major Jewish revolts during Trajan’s reign, in the early second century a Jewish uprising had spread from Cyrenaica, the province immediately to the west of Egypt that is now Libya, to Alexandria and beyond into wider Egypt and then Cyprus (114-118 A.D.). Thousands of non-Jews died excruciating deaths during these upheavals, the Jews exterminated as many gentiles as they could in the cruelest fashion imaginable. The grain supply from Egypt to Rome was threatened, Trajan had no choice but to quell the riots forcefully, casualties and expulsions were such that Jewish influence in Egypt was virtually extinguished.

Overall Trajan is remembered as an honorable soldier-emperor, he reflected back to Rome the image of itself as an invincible-omnipotent force. Trajan’s ashes were placed in a golden urn and interred under the remarkable 38-metre-column that stands at the foot of the Quirinal Hill at the center of Rome.

(Arch of Trajan, Rome)

HOLOFERNES: COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF OF NEBUCHADNEZZAR.

The book of Judith says that Nebuchadnezzar, king of Assyria in the great city of Nineveh, sent Holofernes, commander-in-chief of the army, in a punitive campaign against the vassals who refused to help in the war against Arphaxad, ruler of the Medes in Ecbatana. Since the Jewish monarchical state ruled by high priests resisted the Assyrian army, guarding the route access to Jerusalem, the proud general cut off its water and food supply so that the people would starve to death.

Who is the Biblical character known as Holofernes? If the Nebuchadnezzar mentioned in the book of Judith is the Roman emperor Trajan, then Holofernes must be either Marcius Turbo, who suppressed a major Jewish revolt in Egypt, or, Lusius Quietus, who crushed a Jewish rebellion in Mesopotamia (Quietus was appointed governor of Judaea in 117 A.D.). It turns out that Holofernes is not a single personage, Holofernes is a symbol. Holofernes is an anagram, an encryption-code that contains the single-great military campaign of the Vespasians in Palestine (67-70 A.D.). Trajan’s father, Marcus Ulpius Traianus, was in charge of the Roman Legion Fretensis X from 67 to 69 A.D. Trajan junior served as a tribune under his father in Syria.

Let us decode the integrated name ‘Holofernes’:

HOLOFERNES: H (Heh: ה) O (Vav: ו) L (Lamed: ל) O (Vav: ו) F (Pheh: פ) R (Resh: ר) N (Nun: נ) S (Samech: ס).

The name Holofernes is arranged in a non-linear fashion like a form of reverse speech, it encapsulates the invasion of the Vespasians against Jerusalem from 67 to 70 A.D.

1- HOLOFERNES: HOL(O)FE(RNE)S = ORNE = NERO = N (נ) R (ר) O (ו) = NERO (54-68 A.D.). In 66 A.D. emperor Nero dispatched general Titus Flavius Vespasianus to suppress the revolt in the Roman province of Judaea. Vespasian was joined with his son Titus in Ptolemais.

2- HOLOFERNES: HOLO(FERNES) = FERNES = F (פ) R (ר) N (נ) S (ס) = FRETENSES = FRETENSIS (Legion Fretensis X). Under Flavian patronage Marcus Ulpius Traianus senior commanded the Tenth Legion from 67 to 69 A.D. The scribes who created the book of Judith decided not to include the letter ‘T’ (Tav: ת) in the anagram ‘Holofernes’ so that it wouldn’t be obvious that it refers to Legion Fretensis X (Fre-T-ensis).

3- HOLOFERNES: H(OLOF)ERNE(S) = OLOFS = OLFOS = ULPUS (Marcus Ulpius Traianus) = U (ו) L (ל) P (פ) U (ו) S (ס) = ULPIUS. The Hebrew letter Pheh (F: פ) also has a Peh sound (P: פ), depending on the word.

4- HOLOFERNES: HOLOF(ER)N(ES) = ESER = E (ע) S (ש) R (ר). Eser means ’10’ in Hebrew, Legion Fretensis X was the ‘Tenth Legion’ (X is 10 in Roman numerals). Titus Vespasianus, the one who razed the Temple of Jerusalem to the ground in 70 A.D., became the Tenth emperor of Rome in 79 A.D. Though ‘Eser’ is spelled with an Ayin (ע)and a Shin (ש), there is a connection to ‘RS’ (רס): Holofe(R)rne(S).

5- HOLOFERNES: H(OLO)FERN(ES) = OLOES = OLOSEU = O (ו) L (ל) O (ו) S (ס) – U (ו) = COLOSSEUM. On July 1, 69 A.D. Vespasian was proclaimed emperor while in Judaea, he began building the Roman Colosseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheater (symbol of Roman imperial splendor). After Vespasian’s death Titus continued the project, ultimately his brother Domitian completed it in 80 A.D.

So, Holofernes is hot a single character, Holofernes is a complex puzzle, a symbol.

(Titus Vespasianus, son of Vespasian, destroyer of the Jerusalem Temple)

JUDITH: ARISTOCRATIC SACRAL MAIDEN.

Who exactly is the God-fearing woman known as Judith? The Bible says that she was a wealthy widow from the tribe of Simeon, a native of Bethulia in Jerusalem. Judith 8:2-3 says that her husband’s name was Manasseh, of her own tribe and clan, he suffered a sunstroke and died in Bethulia. Judith 8:7 says that her husband left her gold and silver, servants and maids, livestock and fields. He was buried in the field between Dothan and Balamon.

The truth is that the Biblical Judith is a fictitious character built on the fragments of somebody else’s life. The scribes who created the Bible re-created of the tale of Pompeia Plotina, Trajan’s empress from 98 to 117 A.D. They turned Plotina, a Roman born in Gaul, into an Israelite. Plotina was born in Nemausus, southern Gaul; in modern-day France. The Biblical Judith is from the tribe of Simeon because Simeon is a code for ‘Nimes’, Plotina’s birthplace.

Simeon: (Sime)o(N) = Simen = Nimes = Nemausus.

Like Judith, Plotina was an advocate of people’s interests, she was renowned for her interest in philosophy, her virtue, dignity and simplicity. Plotina died in 123 A.D. She is buried next to Trajan in the pedestal column of Trajan in Rome. Judith 8:3 says that Menasseh is buried with his forefathers in the field between Dothan and Balamon, Dothan-Balamon is a code for ‘Domitian-Decebal.’ From 85 to 89 A.D. emperor Domitian campaigned against Dacia, he concluded a dishonorable-unsatisfactory peace with Decebalus in 89 A.D. Trajan would rectify that between 101 and 106 A.D. launching two military campaigns against Dacia.

• Dothan-Balamon: (Dothan)Bala(m)on = Dothanm= Domthan = Domtan = Domitian (81-96 A.D.).
• Dothan-Balamon: (D)othan(Bal)amon = D-bal = Decebal.

Judith 8:3 is a code for August 11, 117 A.D. August 8th plus 3 days equals 11: August 11, 117 A.D., the day of Hadrian’s ascension to the throne. Trajan fell ill in Hatra, Mesopotamia, he suffered a stroke in Cilicia on August 8, 117 A.D. Three days after his death, Hadrian was acclaimed emperor while in Antioch, Syria on August 11, 117 A.D. At the age of forty-one Hadrian became ‘Caesar Traianus Hadrianus Augustus’, son of deified ‘Traianus Parthicus.’

There was a plausible rumor that the succession had been stage-managed by Plotina, Trajan’s wife, who championed Hadrian’s cause and contrived the support of the army. Some believed that Hadrian was romantically, and possibly, though less probable, sexually involved with Plotina. Plotina forged the documents, the letters she sent to the Senate in Rome carried her own signature rather than Trajan’s, presumably on the excuse that the emperor was too weak to write. Hadrian’s adoption as Trajan’s son and heir was announced only the day after the emperor had died. Trajan’s hard-won provinces of Mesopotamia and Armenia were relinquished.

Judith 16:23 says Judith died in Bethulia. Judith 16:23 is an encryption-code, 16 is a code for 106 A.D., the year the second Dacian war ended. 23 is a reference to 123 A.D., the year Plotina died. Judith 16:23 says Judith reached the advanced age of a hundred and five, Plotina died in 123 A.D., approximately fifteen years before her protege Hadrian (138 A.D.). 105 = 15. In 105 A.D. the Senate awarded Plotina the title ‘Augusta.’ So the Biblical Judith is really Plotina, Trajan’s empress, a Roman.

Judith’s maid, the one who accompanied her to the camp of the Assyrians to meet Holofernes rings a bell when it comes to Matidia, Trajan’s niece. Matidia’s daughter Vibia Sabina married Hadrian in 100 A.D. The sages who created the Bible decided to name Judith ‘Judit’ (יהודית) because that name (Judit) contains the letter ‘T’ (Tav: ת) which is shared by Trajan (T-rajan), Plotina (Plo-T-ina), and Matidia (Ma-T-idia).

Judith 1:7 says that Nebuchadnezzar king of Assyria sent an ultimatum to the inhabitants of Cilicia, Judith 1:7 is a code for 117 A.D., the year of Trajan’s death in Cilicia, north of Syria. 1 + 7 = 8, the month of August. Trajan expired on August 8, 117 A.D.

(Plotina died in 123 A.D., it is said that after hear death Hadrian honored her by wearing black for nine years)

BAGOAS: KILLER OF ARTAXERXES III AND ARTAXERXES IV.

“In 338, Artaxerxes III was murdered on the orders of his vizier, Bagoas, who had been one of the commanders of the invasion of Egypt. Bagoas killed off all Artaxerxes’ sons as well, except for Arses, who became the new Great King as Artaxerxes IV. Not surprisingly Arses and Bagoas could not work together, and soon Arses and all his sons were also murdered. A distant member of the royal family was placed on the throne as Dareios III. Well warned, Dareios murdered Bagoas.”

(Alexander the great failure [the collapse of the Macedonian empire], by John D. Grainger. Hambledon Continuum, Pg 64)

The book of Judith says that Judith and her maid went across the valley to the camp of the Assyrians, with the intention of killing Holofernes, general-in-chief of Nebuchadnezzar. According to the Bible, the attractive Hebrew woman Judith seduced Holofernes. She threw herself down postrate before him in the antechamber, went into his royal tent, and got him drunk. Then she pulled out a sword and struck Holofernes twice in the neck, she decapitated him. She left for Jerusalem.

In Chapter 12 of the book of Judith we see that the personage of Judith is interwoven with Bagoas, the eunuch in charge of Holofernes’s household. Judith 12: 10 says that in the fourth day Holofernes gave a banquet for his servants alone, to which he did not invite any of the officers. Judith 12: 11 says that Holofernes ordered Bagoas to persuade the Hebrew woman (Judith) to come to eat and drink with him. Judith 12:15 says that Judith’s maid went ahead and spread out on the ground for her the fleece Bagoas had furnished for her daily use in reclining at her dinner. Judith 12:20 says that charmed by Judith, Holofernes drank a great quantity of wine.

Judith 13:1 says that when it was late, Bagoas closed the tent from the outside and excluded the attendants from the master’s presence. Judith 13:3 says that Judith had told her maid and Bagoas to stand outside of the bedroom and wait. When Judith was left alone in the bedroom with Holofernes, she went to the bedpost near the head of Holofernes, took his sword, grasped the hair of his head, and struck him twice in the neck and cut off his head. When she rolled his body off the bed she handed over the severed head to her maid who put it into her food pouch. The two went off together back to Jerusalem.

Basically, the scribes who wrote the Bible decided to tell the tale of Artaxerxes IV, king of Persia, son of Artaxerxes III, though the Biblical character of Holofernes. It is a known fact that a royal eunuch named Bagoas murdered Artaxerxes IV so that Darius III would succeed him to the throne. This is why Judith 12: 10 says that Holofernes gave a banquet for his servants and not for his guards on the fourth day, the ‘fourth day’ is a reference to Artaxerxes IV. In chapter 12 of the book of Judith, Judith and Bagoas become one, a hybrid. Judith 13:8 says Judith struck Holofernes twice in the neck with a sword because Bagoas killed Artaxerxes III and Artaxerxes IV.

The scribes who created the Bible know that Trajan was an admirer of Alexander III the Great, king of Macedonia and master of Asia (336-323 B.C.E.). Alexander defeated Darius III of Persia on October 1, 331 B.C.E. in the battle of Arbela, he became the undisputed master of Asia. In 330 B.C.E. a eunuch named Bagoas was introduced to Alexander by Nabarzanes, Darius’s grand vizier, Alexander showed Bagoas great favor. This Bagoas is not to be confused with the Bagoas who murdered Ochus and Arses.

This is what Simon Baker, author of “Ancient Rome”, the rise and fall of an empire, had to say about Trajan’s emulation of Alexander:

“By 116 Trajan was again expanding Roman control and breaking new ground. In that year he reached the westernmost nook of the Persian Gulf, stopped at the shore and stared out to sea. He was looking towards the iconic land he had he had thus far only imagined. Were he a younger man, he said despondently, he would have followed Alexander’s footsteps to India. Now, exhausted by two years of campaigning in the unforgiving heat of the Arabian deserts, he had to concede that the Greek conqueror was the greater man.”

(Ancient Rome [the rise and fall of an empire], by Simon Baker. BBC Books, pg 220-221)

(Alexander III the Great, king of Macedonia and master of Asia, born in Pella, Macedonia on July 20, 356 B.C.E., died in Babylon on June 10, 323 B.C.E.)

• Artaxerxes III Ochus, son of Artaxerxes II (359-338 B.C.E.). Contemporary Philip II of Macedon (father of Alexander III the Great).

• Artaxerxes IV Arses, son of Artaxerxes III (338-336 B.C.E.). Killed by the royal eunuch Bagoas.

• Darius III Artashata, relative of Artaxerxes IV (336-330 B.C.E.).  Darius was killed by the pretender Bessus/Artaxerxes V, would-be successor to the throne.

PART II.

NEBUCHADNEZZAR CONQUERS ARPHAXAD IN RAGAE.

The book of Judith says that in the twelfth year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, king of the Assyrians in the great city of Nineveh, at that time Arphaxad, king of the Medes, ruled in Ecbatana (Media). Judith 1:13 says that in the seventeenth year Nebuchadnezzar routed the whole force of Arphaxad. Judith 1:15 says that Nebuchadnezzar ran Arphaxad with spears and utterly destroyed him at the mountains of Ragae.

Who is Arphaxad? Arphaxad or Arrapachitis is Armenia, the client-kingdom of Rome under Parthian influence that capitulated to Trajan in 114 A.D. Genesis 10:22 mentions Arphachshad as a descendant of Shem, the brother of Elam, Asshur, Lut, and Aram. In Genesis 10:3 Arphachshad is called ‘Riphath’, he is the son of Gomer and the brother of Ashkenaz. Ashkenaz is Scythia, the Slavic nations. Jeremiah 51:27 mentions three kingdoms subjected to Media that rise against Babylon and Chaldea: Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz. This is a direct reference to the Armenian nation, Ararat is the old capital of Armenia, in modern-day Turkey.

Judith 1:15 says that king Nebuchadnezzar of Assyria utterly destroyed Arphaxad by the mountains of Ragae. When we read this Biblical passage we’re under the impression that ‘Ragae’ is Teheran in modern-day Iran. This is a wrong assumption. Arphaxad is a code for ‘Rex Parthis Datus’, a puppet-Parthian prince installed by Trajan, never recognized by the Parthians. The Ragae mentioned in Judith 1:15 is ‘Regia’, a reference to Dacia, the kingdom north of the Danube conquered by Trajan in 106 A.D., north of Dalmatia and Moesia. The most important military, religious, and political centre of Dacia was Sarmizegethusa Regia. Regia = Ragae. The Dacians were a people of Scythian origin, probably desended from the wild Scythian tribe known as the Massagetae, from the Caspian region.

Judith 1:6 says that many nations came together to resist the people of ‘Cheleoud’, adversaries of Nebuchadnezzar. When we read Judith 1:6 we’re under the impression that Cheleoud is Chaldea in Babylon. This is wrong, Cheleud is the Dacian kingdom in Eastern Europe. If we scrutinize the name Cheleoud, we’ll see it’s an integrated name for Dacia and Decebalus, the Dacian king. Decebalus committed suicide and his head was brought to Rome.

Cheleoud: Ch (C) le (L) oud (D) = CLD = DC-L = DACIA = (D)a(C)ia. Decebalus: DC-L = (D)e(C)eba(L)us. Cheleoud is mentioned in Judith 1:6 because Dacia was turned into a Roman province in 106 A.D.

Judith 1:1 definitely speaks of Trajan, who believed in old fashioned Roman expansion and conquest. Judith 1:1 says that in the twelfth year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Assyria, Arphaxad ruled over the Medes in Ecbatana. The scribes who wrote the Bible used the number 12 to let us know that Nebuchadnezzar is Trajan, the soldier adopted by emperor Nerva on October 97 A.D. In the twelfth year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar’ refers to the twelfth emperor of Rome, Marcus Cocceius Nerva. Judith 1:13 says that in the seventeenth year Nebuchadnezzar routed the hole force of Arphaxad beause Trajan was the thirteenth emperor of Rome, he died in 117 A.D. 17 = 117 A.D. The book of Judith has sixteen chapters because 16 is a code for 106 A.D., the year Dacia fell to Rome.

THE NON-JEWISH CITY OF SCYTHOPOLIS.

The book of Judith says that Nebuchadnezzar, king of Assyria, was enraged that the city-states in Syria-Palestine had not assisted him in his war against the Medes. Judith 3:9 says that Holofernes, his general-in-chief, reached Esdraelom near the Judaean mountains. Judith 3:10 says that he set up his camp between Geba and Scythopolis and stayed there a whole month to refurbish all the equipment of his army.

This is significant because when the Jewish revolt broke out in Jerusalem in 66 A.D., the Jews of the district of Scythopolis, in Beth-Shean south of Galilee, sided not with their brethen in Jerusalem but with their fellow Scythopolitans. Like Caesarea, Scythopolis was a non-Jewish city. The Jews living by the Jezreel valley regarded their own security as more important than their ties of blood, they clashed with the Judaean rebels. The political attitudes of the Jews of Jerusalem were not shared by all Jews elsewhere.

This episode rings a bell when it comes to the inhabitants of Scythopolis mentioned in Judith 3:10, they seem to be allies of Nebuchadnezzar rather than enemies, it appears to be a tale of dual loyalties in a time of crisis. Scythopolis is the Greek name that the early Ptolemies used to identify the people of that region. Therefore, the Nebuchadnezzar mentioned in the book of Judith is not Nebuchadnezzar II, the Babylonian king that blasted Jerusalem in 587 B.C. It is said that Nebuchadnezzar II (605-562 B.C.), son of Nabopolassar (626-605 B.C.), was a contemporary of pharaoh Neco II (610-595 B.C.). Ptolemy I Soter didn’t become king-pharaoh until 305 B.C.E., after the death of Alexander (June 10, 323 B.C.E.). Coincidentally, Alexander died in the palace of Nebuchadnezzar in Babylon.

The Talmud, Megillat Taanit 18 implies that Turianus, meaning Trajan, is linked to Nebuchadnezzar. In 69 A.D. Marcus Ulpius Traianus senior, was involved in constructing a road from Caesarea to Scythopolis.

(After the death of Alexander III the Great in 323 B.C.E. the offshoot of the Macedonians in Egypt, Syria, and Persia, re-invented themselves as Jews. They adopted monotheism, Zeus-Jove became Yhwh)

DACIA: TWO-HARD FOUGHT WARS.

As we already know the book of Judith says that Nebuchadnezzar, king of Assyria, raided the army of Arphaxad in Ragae. Nebuchadnezzar took possession of his cities and turned its glory into shame. Judith 1:15 says that Arphaxad himself he overtook in the mountains of Ragae, ran him through with spears and utterly destroyed him. Judith 1:16 says that Nebuchadnezzar returned home with all his numerous, motley horde of warriors; and there he and his army relaxed and feasted for one hundred and twenty days.

What is the meaning of these Biblical passages? In 115 A.D. Trajan attacked Parthia through Mesopotamia to annex Armenia, client-kingdom of Rome. Arphaxad is a reference to Armenia, but the Ragae mentioned in Judith 1:15 is not Teheran (Persia), is Sarmizegethusa Regia, Dacia’s capital. Judith 1:16 speaks about how Trajan and his army made a triumphal entry in Rome after having conquered and utterly destroyed Dacia in 106 A.D. which was renamed Romania.

“Then he (Nebuchadnezzar) returned home with all his numerous, motley horde of warriors, and there he and his army relaxed and feasted for one hundred and twenty days.”

(Judith 1:16)

The kingdom of Dacia was magnetically attractive to the steely embrace of pax Romana because it was wealthy, with gold and silver mines. The two wars launched by Trajan against Dacia from 101 to 106 A.D. were devoted to nothing more than genocide and the eradication of ancient barbarian culture and to plunder the region mines. The first invasion was launched on March 25, 101 A.D., it ended in autumn 102. On June 4, 105 Trajan left Rome for the second Dacian war, by autumn 106 Dacia was incorporated as a Roman province. The Romans would celebrate the victory with breathtaking spectacles, approximately 10, 000 prisoners, fought in gladiator arenas praising Trajan’s name. The numerous motley horde of warriors mentioned in Judith 1:16 are the Dacian captives brought to Rome. This is why Judith 1:16 says that the troops of Nebuchadnezzar relaxed and feasted for one hundred and twenty days. The Senate awarded Trajan the title ‘Dacicus.’

(Detail of Trajan’s Column depicting scenes from the Dacian wars. Judith 1:12 says that Nebuchadnezzar swore to avenge himself on the territories of Cilicia, Damascus and Syria. Trajan’s architect Apollodorus of Damascus built a permanent bridge across the Danube during the Dacian war)

On March 22, 106 A.D. the client-kingdom of the Nabateans in Southern Palestine was occupied, it was renamed Arabia Petraea.

JEWITH REVOLTS CHALLENGE THE POLITICAL STABILITY OF ROME.

The book of Judith says that the army of Nebuchadnezzar proceeded in an expedition to subjugate all those who had refused to assist the king in his war against the Medes. Judith 2:21 says that after a three-day-march from Nineveh the troops reached ‘Bectileth’, and from Bectileth they next encamped near the mountains to the north of Upper Cilicia. Judith 2:23 says that Holofernes and his whole force devastated Put and Lud and plundered all the Rassisites and the Ishmaelites on the border of the desert toward the south of Chaldea.

Who and what is Bectileth? Who is Put and Lud? Where are they located? Bectileth is not the name of a region, Betileth is an encryption-code for Marcius Turbo and Lusius Quietus, the elite generals who suppressed the great Jewish revolt that lasted from 114 to 118 A.D. The Put and Lud mentioned in Judith 2:23 represent Cyrenaica, Libya, and Egypt.

The integrated name ‘Bectileth’ contains the initials of Turbo and Quietus, the fact that both entities are encapsulated in the same name shows that they were a team (following Trajan’s orders). Let us decode the name ‘Bectileth’:

BECTILETH: B – C (Q) – T – L – T = BQTLT = TB/LQT. TB stands for ‘Turbo’ (T-ur-B-o) and LQT stands for Lusius Quietus (L-usius Q-uie-T-us). In the case of Lusius Quietus the letter ‘C’ has a ‘Q’ sound.

How do we know that Put and Lud stand for Libya? The book of Ezekiel makes a prophecy against Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all Arabia, Libya and people of allied territories. Ezekiel 30:5 identifies Put and Lud as Libya, which is also Cyrene. From 114 to 116 A.D. Trajan was in the Persian Gulf area, the Jewish communities of Mesopotamia and Babylon fell into his hands, the Jews aligned themselves with Parthia in 116 A.D. The Jewish upheaval began in Cyrenaica, there were great clashes between the Jews and the communities of Greeks and Romans.

Some say that the leader of the Jews was a certain Andrea who was also known as Lukuas. The Jews were trying to establish Cyrenaica as a Jewish state free of gentiles. Therefore, they exterminated as many non-Jews as they could in the cruelest fashions imaginable. The revolt spread to Alexandria (Egypt), it is said that many Cyrenaican Jews went there at that time, Egypt was the food supply of Rome. There in Egypt the Jews committed the same atrocities that they committed in Cyrenaica. The Roman historian Cassius Dio sheds light on this issue:

“The Jews in the region of Cyrene had put a certain Andreas at their head, and were destroying both the Romans and the Greeks. They would eat the flesh of their victims, make belts for themselves of their entrails, anoint themselves with their blood and wear their skin for clothing; many they sawed in two, from the head downwards; others they gave to wild beasts, and still others they forced to fight as gladiators. In all two hundred and twenty thousand persons perished. In Egypt, too, they perpetrated many similar outrages, and in Cyprus under the leadership of a certain Artemion. There also, two hundred and forty thousand perished.”

(Cassius Dio, Roman History, book 68, ch. 32:1-3)

To restore order in the region Trajan sent his elite generals Quintus Marcius Turbo and Lusius Quietus, they crushed the diasporic Jewish rebels with a heavy hand. The Moorish chieftain Lusius Quietus exterminated as many Jews as he could in Mesopotamia, Trajan compensated him by making him governor of Judaea in 117 A.D.

So, the Put and Lud mentioned in Judith 2:23 represent Cyrenaica, Libya.

(Tablet of the second Temple period. The inscription written in Greek forbids the Greeks entering the Temple area under penalty of death)

THE DEFEAT OF A ROMAN LEGION AT BETH-HORON.

Chapter 4 of the book of Judith speaks about how the Israelites were in extreme dread of Holofernes, commander-in-chief of Nebuchadnezzar. They had lately returned from exile and only recently had all the people of Judaea gathered together. They feared that Holofernes would despoil and ultimately destroy their Temple in Jerusalem. Judith 4:3 says that the Temple had been purified from profanation.

(Judith 3:8 says that Nebuchadnezzar demanded that every nation worship him alone as a god. This is a clear reference to Rome because emperor worship was key to Roman paganism. Sometime between 39 and 40 A.D. Caligula demanded that a statue of himself should be placed in the Temple of Jerusalem)

Judith 4:4 says that the Israelites sent word to the whole region of Samaria, to Kona, Beth-Horon, Belmain, Jericho, Choba and Aesora and to the valley of Salem. It is important to note that Beth-Horon is mentioned because Beth-Horon in Judaea played a major role in the 66-70 A.D. Jewish revolt, a small province of the empire ignited a war with the superpower of Rome. In October 66 A.D. Nero sent the newly appointed legate in Syria Gaius Cestius Gallus to quash the Jewish rebels in Jerusalem in a decisive confrontation. Gallus marched from Antioch with 30, 000 troops at his side, he was certain he would crush the insurrectionists. Not only did Gallus fail to capture the holy city, his cohorts fell into a trap and he was forced to retreat to Caesarea, demoralized.

At Beth-Horon in Judaea the men of the Twelfth Legion found themselves surrounded by Jewish rebels on all sides, they cut off the road. From the rocky slopes the Jews attacked the Romans with all kinds of weaponry, for hours. The Romans were unable to keep formation and defend themselves, 6000 Romans were killed. The next day Gallus chose to flee, it was a landmark triumph for the Jews. The rebellion in the little province of Judaea spelt the potential for a revolt that could destabilize the whole Roman eastern frontier. The greatest population of Jews outside of Judaea lived in Parthia, Rome’s rival empire.

The fact that Judith 4:4 mentions Beth-Horon proves that the Nebuchadnezzar mentioned in the book of Judith is not Nebuchadnezzar II, son of Nabopolassar.

(in 66 A.D. emperor Nero sent Vespasian to suppress the Jewish revolt in Palestine. In March 70 A.D. Titus drew his army in front of the walls of Jerusalem, the Twelfth Legion that had been disgracefully defeated under the command of Cestius Gallus was out for revenge. The Temple complex was razed to the ground on September 26, 70 A.D.)

CONCLUSION.

There is no doubt that the fascinating book of Judith was written sometime after the death of emperor Hadrian in 138 A.D., it was included in the Septuagint and accepted in the Roman canon. The name Judith is an anagram, an encryption-code that encapsulates the names of the following characters: Trajan, Plotina, Matidia, and Hadrian. Let us see:

Judith (יהודית): Iehudit = I (Yud: י) H (Heh: ה) U (Vav: ו) D (Daled: ד) I (Yud: י) T (Tav: ת).

1- Trajan: T-rajan = T = Tav (ת).

2- Plotina: Plo-ti-na: T = Tav (ת), Yud (י).

3- Matidia: Ma-t-idia: T = Tav (ת). Ma-tidia: Tidia = תידיה.

4- Hadrian: H-a-d-r-i-an: H (Heh: ה) – D (Daled: ד) – I (Yud: י).

Judith 8:3 says that Manasseh, Judith’s husband, died in Bethulia, his native city. Judith 16:23 says that Judith died in Bethulia as well, they buried her in the tomb of her husband. Bethulia is a code for ‘Trajan’s native city in Baetica-Italica:

Bethulia = (B) – e – (T) – (L) – (I) – (A) h = BTLIA. BAETIA: (B) a (E) (T) (I) c (A) = Baetica. ITALIA: (ITALI) c (A) = Italica.

Judith 4:6 says that Bethulia is linked to Bethomesthaim. Bethomesthaim means ‘House of two”, a code for Trajan’s column, index of trans-Danubian epic, in Rome. Bethulia-Bethomesthaim is the sacred house of the two Dacian wars: 101-102 A.D./105-106 A.D.

WHAT IS THE REAL MEANING OF THE NAME CANAAN?

CYNOCEPHALUS: WHAT IS THE REAL MEANING OF THE NAME CANAAN?

At that time the Nephilim appeared on earth (as well as later), after the sons of heaven had intercourse with the daughters of man, who bore them sons. They were the heroes of old, the men of renown.”

(Genesis 6:4)

What is the real meaning of the Biblical name Canaan? The name Canaan appears throughout the Hebrew Bible as a geography associated with the promised land in the territories of greater Syria, at the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and Africa, which today include parts of southern Syria, Lebanon, Israel, the West Bank, Gaza, and part of the Sinai in Egypt. Throughout the years boundaries in Syria-Palestine have shifted back and forth, we cannot say that Canaan has ever been a single-unified political entity. So, what is the real meaning of the name Canaan? Well, it may sound far-fetched like something borrowed from a sci-fi film but, the dark-ugly truth is that the name ‘Canaan’ means ‘Canine’, an indirect reference to an ancient race of dog-headed humanoids, a type of semi-wolf/semi-human creature associated with the coastal territories of Philishtia. The original god of war-battered Gaza is not Dagon, it is the winged Assyrian demon Pazuzu which has canine features. Monstrous-looking Pazuzu is a dog-headed god, it is the divine patron of all Sunni Arabic-speaking Palestinians in the coastal Gaza strip.

(Genesis 14:5 makes an indirect reference to Pazuzu, it mentions the ‘Zuzim’ in connection to Ham, Egypt)

Is dog-mouthed Pazuzu mentioned in the Hebrew Bible? Not explicitly but Deuterenomy 2:20 mentions an offshoot of the giant Rephaites called the Zamzummim, strong and tall like the Anakim, the superhuman Rapaim are linked to the depth of the netherworld. When Joshua Ben Nun, successor of Moses and supreme commander of the army of Israel, set out for the conquest of the land of Canaan, he was for the most part successful. Joshua, commander of the army of Yahweh was determined to wipe out the giant Anakim in the Levant. Joshua 11:21 says that Joshua penetrated the mountain regions and exterminated the Anakim in Hebron, Debir, Anab, the entire mountain region of Judah and Israel:

“Joshua fulfilled the doom on them and on their cities, so that no Anakim were left in the land of the Israelites. However, some survived in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod.”

(Joshua 11:21-22)

Why is it that the Bible says that the super-sized Anakim survived in the Philishtine city-states of Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod? The territories of the war-like Philishtines are magnetized with the consciousness of the blood-thirsty Pazuzu, an extra-dimensional being that protects the afflicted Gazans. Basically, dog-headed Pazuzu is a hyper-advanced humanoid-like extra-dimensional alien, an Anunnaki bio-engineer who in ancient times combined dna from different species to create chimeras, animal-human hybrids. The present-day Palestinians who live in the coastal Gaza strip are the spiritual offspring of the ancient pre-Adamic race of human-dogs, they are essentially the product of large-scale genetic and neurological engineering done by the ancient Anunnaki. The non-canonical apocryphal book of Enoch says that the fallen angel Semiazas led two hundred watchers and landed on Mount Hermon, they traveled through a wormhole and landed in Syria. The cross-dimensional ultraterrestrials assumed corporeal form, they adjusted the the vibratory frequency of earth, and mated with mortal-earthly human women. The super-advanced Anunnaki extraterrestrials begot a race of demigods, a race of superhuman giants that possessed enhanced intuition and intelligence plus supernatural strength and vitality:

And the angels, the children of the heaven, saw and lusted after them, and said to one another: ‘Come, let us choose us wives from among the children of men and beget us children.’ And Semjaza, who was their leader, said unto them: ‘I fear ye will not indeed agree to do this deed, and I alone shall have to pay the penalty of a great sin.’ And they all answered him and said: ‘Let us all swear an oath, and all bind ourselves by mutual imprecations not to abandon this plan but to do this thing.’ Then sware they all together and bound themselves by mutual imprecations upon it. And they were in all two hundred; who descended (in the days) of Jared on the summit of Mount Hermon, and they called it Mount Hermon, because they had sworn and bound themselves by mutual imprecations upon it.

(The book of Enoch, VI.2-6)

Mount Hermon or Jabal al-Sheikh is situated within the anti-Lebanon mountain range, it’s on the border of Syria, Lebanon, and northern Israel. Everything indicates that the sacred snow-capped mountain is an inter-dimensional portal, a gateway to another realm. Basically, Joshua 11:22 says that the Anakim in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod disappeared from human view but remained below the ground in underground cities. What exactly are these underground cities? They are an ancient sophisticated tunnel system aligned with an inter-dimensional portal. This portal or doorway that creates a geo-magnetic anomaly is like the realm of the multi-headed canine Cerberus who guards the gates of Hades to prevent the dead from living. Joshua 11:22 is telling us without actually telling us that Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod are conduits, these chakras represent the three lower Sephirot of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life: Hod-Yesod-Netzah. The Jewish Tree of Life consists of ten Inter-locked Sephirot or concentric circles arranged in three columns, each singular Sephirah represents a world or spatial dimension, this means that extra-dimensional aliens like the Anunnaki can come into-and-out of them at will. This is the reason why the Bible says that the ghostly Rephaim are shade-spirits, neither soul nor flesh, linked to the netherworld.

(The Sephirot Hod, Yesod, and Netzah that connect to Malchut, are shaped like a down-pointing triangle, like Pazuzu’s raised arm)

If we analyze and scrutinize the figure of the winged Assyrian demon Pazuzu with bulging-staring eyes, we notice that two pointed projections emanate from his shoulders and another emanates from his serpent-like penis, creating the Phoenician letter ‘Waw’ which looks like an upper case letter ‘Y’ of the English alphabet. The ‘Y-like-shape’ found in Pazuzu’s elongated torso is an encryption-code for the three lower Sephirot of the Tree of Life: Hod-Yesod-Netzah, equivalent to the three heads of dog-headed Cerberus of the netherworld. Joshua 11:22 says that some of the Anakim survived in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod because the Palestinian territories are linked to three otherworldly realms inhabited by the dog-headed people.

This is why the ancient Egyptian deity Anubis is represented with figure of a man with the head of a jackal, the canine-looking deity acts as a guide to the afterlife, he is a god of the netherworld. This means in practical terms that the land of Canaan in the south of the Levant is the land of ‘Canineus’, that is, the dog-headed people. It is absolutely true that Jerusalem is the eternal-undisputable capital of the Jewish nation but even Genesis 49:27 says that Benjamin is a ravenous wolf, a dog, the lot of the Biblical tribe of Benjamin is in Jerusalem which was originally called Jebus.

(Anubis, the ancient Egyptian deity of funerary practices, lord of the underworld)

Last but not least, the famed Greek historian Herodotus of Halicarnasus who lived approximately from 485 to 425 B.C.E. relates in ‘The Histories’ that wild dog-headed humanoids live in remote areas in Libya. Interestingly, well-traveled Herodotus describes Bigfoot-looking men that are headless and have their eyes in their chest. Could that be an indicator of the ‘Y-like-shape’ found in Pazuzu’s elongated torso? Could it be possible that the eyes on the headless men chests are symbolic of the Sephirot ‘Hod’ and ‘Netzah?’ Quantum mechanics and inter-dimensional-travel are key to understanding the Anunnaki gods and their creation:

“For the eastern region of Libya, which the nomads inhabit, is low-lying and sandy as far as the Triton river; but the land west of this, where farmers live, is exceedingly mountainous and wooded and full of wild beasts. In that country are the huge snakes and the lions, and the elephants and bears and asps, the horned asses, the dog-headed and the headless men that have their eyes in their chests, as the Libyans say, and the wild men and women, besides many other creatures not fabulous.”

(Herodotus, the Histories, Book 4.191)

ADDITIONAL INFO.

The notorious Greek physician and historian Ctesias of Cnidus who served at the court of king Artaxerxes II of Persia, speaks about werewolf-type dogmen that once lived in India. The writings of Ctesias have been lost but he is quoted by ancient authors, here’s what Ctesias says about the fierce warrior tribe of dogmen:

“On these mountains he says there are men who have a dog’s head. They wear clothing from wild animals. They do not speak with a voice, but they bark like dogs and thus understand one another. They have longer teeth than a dog and have claws similar to them but they are larger and rounder as well. They live in the mountains near the river Indus. They are dark-skinned and are completely just, just like the rest of Indians they encounter. They know the language of the other Indians but they cannot speak it-instead they just make signs by barking or with their hands and digits like the deaf. They are called Kalustrioi by the Indians, which equates to Kunocephaloi among the Greeks (dog-heads). Their tribe is almost 120,000 strong.”

According to Ctesias these pre-Adamic human-dog beings dwell in caves and live by hunting in the mountains, they are the outcome of genetic engineering done by the Anunnaki extraterrestrials thousands of years ago.

SOMETHING IS COMING IN AND OUT OF OUR REALITY TO SHOW US THEY EXIST.

Warning: You may see advertisements partially covering the page content, the government is doing that deliberately to sabotage my article.

SOMETHING IS COMING IN AND OUT OF OUR REALITY TO SHOW US THEY EXIST.

Will the government ever confirm aliens exist? Will we ever see disclosure? Have they secretly contacted an advanced alien civilization located light years away in our solar system’s backyard? The government will not debunk neither confirm the existence of extraterrestrial species because they know the truth. They authoritative cabal knows that modern-day humans, that is, Homo Sapiens, are the product of large-scale genetic and neurological engineering done by a hyper-advanced humanoid-like extra-dimensional aliens called the Anunnaki. They are millions of years ahead of us when it comes to technology, they’re so incredibly advanced that they can bend the time-space continuum, they can travel into-and-out of our physical reality at will. They could shut us down if they wanted to. Basically, the key to understanding UFOs is found in quantum mechanics and consciousness. This means in practical terms that the aliens don’t come from a star system that’s many light years away, they reside in another spatial dimension, another realm or domain. They travel into-and-out of our world through a wormhole, a portal.

There is a wall painting in an old church situated in the Romanian medieval town of Sighisoara in the Transylvania region that depicts a UFO sighting. The intriguing painting thought to date from the 16th century features a religious scene of a disk-shaped object spinning down, surrounded by a thunderous sky, pouring thick smoke and hovering above a huge church-like building which appears to be on fire. The wingless UFO-style flying disk has petals like a flower, it looks trans-dimensional, as if it has traveled through warped space and time. The painting depicts the cross-dimensional plasmic-looking spacecraft as if it has popped into physical reality instantaneously. This craft doesn’t seem to belong to a civilization located millions of years away but to aliens who live in another realm. The astute artist who made this revealing painting left us clues for us to decode, he tried to let us know that the aliens are not extraterrestrials but ultraterrestrials.

(The rotating UFO has a long exhaust fume as if it is malfunctioning, indicating that Transylvania could be a UFO crash site, with a secret underground alien base)

The unknown artist who made that wall painting knew that planet earth is not necessarily a globed-shaped body or a spherical planet, or a ball suspended in a vast cosmic ocean of space. He damn knew that from a metaphysical standpoint earth is a flat-round spatial dimension covered with a half-sphere or solid-looking dome. Perceptible matter is a field of vibrational energy, a broadcast, a transmission. Therefore he painted a plasma-based spacecraft surrounded by a force field that traveling through a doorway. Beyond the shadow of a doubt the valiant artist left a sign of otherworldly interference in our human lives. Last but not least, it is said that the 13th monastery of Sighisoara was burned to the ground twice, the wall painting appeared sometime in the 16th century or perhaps even the 17th century.
