Hiram Abiff, the True King of Egypt, 1554BC
- Index 3

This forbidden book is called the Slavery of Adam and Eve. It describes a "God" of the Earth but this god is described as the 'Devil'. And Adam wrote: "Who is lord of the earth, to the same do I belong and my children." "And for fifteen days continuously we entreated. Then we heard Michael the archangel and Joel praying for us, and Joel the archangel was commanded by the Lord, and he took a seventh part of paradise and gave it to us. also see.. Books of Adam and Eve. Here Seth is given God's secrets and sacraments....

Adam says to Seth, "And lo! a word concerning thee came upon me and the Lord said to me, 'Since thy days were fashioned, thou hast been created with a love of knowledge; therefore there shall not be taken from thy seed for ever the (right) to serve Me.' And when I heard these words. I threw myself on the earth and adored the Lord God and said, 'Thou art the eternal and supreme God; and all creatures give thee honour and praise. 'Thou art the true Light gleaming above all light(s), the Living Life, infinite mighty Power. To Thee, the spiritual powers give honour and praise. Thou workest on the race of men the abundance of Thy mercy.'

"Hearken, my son Seth, even to the rest of the secrets [and sacraments] that shall be, which were revealed to me, when I had eaten of the tree of the knowledge, and knew and perceived what will come to pass in this age; [what God intends to do to his creation of the race of men. The Lord will appear in a flame of fire (and) from the mouth of His majesty He will give commandments and statutes [from His mouth will proceed a two-edged sword] and they will sanctify Him in the house of the habitation of His majesty. And He will show them the marvellous place of His majesty. And then they will build a house to the Lord their God in the land which He shall prepare for them and there they will transgress His statutes and their sanctuary will be burnt up and their land will be deserted and they themselves will be dispersed; because they have kindled the wrath of God.

When kingship was 'lowered', who was the first king? In the Sumerian texts Adapa U-an, elsewhere called the first man, was a half-god, half-man culture hero, called by the title Abgallu (Ab=water, Gal=Great, Lu=Man) of Eridu. He was considered to have brought civilisation to the city from Dilmun (probably Bahrain). Noah (Ziusudra/Upnapishtim) may have lived in Sippar.

After the flood: Some modern researchers following David Rohl, have conjectured that Eridu, to the south of Ur, was the original Babel and site of the Tower of Babel, rather than the later city of Babylon, for a variety of reasons:

The ziggurat ruins of Eridu are far larger and older than any others, and seem to best match the Biblical description of the unfinished Tower of Babel. One name of Eridu in cuneiform logograms was pronounced "NUN.KI" ("the Mighty Place") in Sumerian, but much later the same "NUN.KI" was understood to mean the city of Babylon.

The Ziggurat of Eridu is similar to the Ziggurat of Ur, but slightly smaller. The chief god of this city was Enki; the god of Wisdom.

The Enuma Elish, the Babylonian Creation myth, explains how natural phenomena and social institutions on Earth came into being and were regulated. In an earlier Sumerian source, however, the story is different - everything is established by the god Enki, the clever craftsman who presides over the life-giving fresh waters, the patron of crafts and arts, magic and wisdom.

"Fruits of the soil' in Genesis 4:3 indicates domesticated grain, fruit trees, vine grapes, wheat and perhaps barley. Jerico shows the remains of a human civilized population 10,000 years ago. There is much more proof of an advanced civilized society in the Middle East. In Iran and Iraq in particular.

Archaeological finds and the words of Moses, Daniel and Josephus indicate giants also roamed the Earth in very ancient times. They became the biblical 'tribes' feared by all who incountered them. These giants are the legendary 'Nephilim' that God wanted destroyed along with the men they had corrupted. But they are called 'men of renown' in Genesis 6:4. Who were these 'childern' of the 'fallen angels'? 'Nephilim' means 'giant'. The Great Flood of Noah did not rid the Earth of these giants. More about the giants on Hiram Index 3.

Why do we have so many religions? Three true religions, Hinduism, Sikhism and Buddhism, believe in reincarnation. Three other true religions, Judaism, Christianity and Sufism believe in a resurrection. How can they both be right? These and other paradoxes can be explained if you have the missing information.

The reason we can't reconcile the theory of evolution with the Genesis account of creation, or the apparent contradiction of reincarnation and a resurrection is because of one simple yet key piece of information. This website provides that missing piece of information.

But as we said, the oldest, purest form of the legends came from Egypt. From there we can trace them back to Mesopotamia, Sumer in particular or what is now known as Turkey, Iraq and Iran ect. Here we find Noah, and his sons who carried on a tradition and a secret knowledge we are just now beginning to understand. The current Masonic legend started with Noah but switched to Hiram sometime in the 1700's. Noah was not only chosen by God to be saved from the "Flood" but given the 'secrets' of civilized living by God, in the form of stone tablets or 'pillers'. As you read this site, you will see how all 3 of Noah's sons and several grandsons ended up in Egypt. They all became Kings of Egypt under a god they called Horus.

Alexander, the Great personally saw and inspected, according to his historians, many such giant pillars of gold bearing strange scripts in the extremities of India. Plato affirms, in his Critias, that the Atlantean kings inscribed on golden pillars their laws, edicts and judicial decisions, in a strange ritual involving the sacrifice of a bull dedicated to Poseidon. This type of ritual is characteristic of the Indies, where it is called Gomedha.

Masonic legends say that Seth, Adam and Eve's son was the first human to have 'building skills'. Seth was some how connected to the Egyptian evil God Set. These two are in no way connected but the old terminology stuck. Seth was also called 'the crocodile'. The Crocodile King turns up in the predynastic era of Egypt. Josephus refers to Seth as the most notable of the sons of Adam in the Antiquities of the Jews, and reports that his descendants built the Pillars of the sons of Seth. These people were also called the SHEMSU HOR.

The "Zodiac of Denderah", located in the Temple of Hathor, in Denderah, Egypt, now on display in the Louvre. Dating from the first century b.c., it details all of the Egyptian constellations. Near the top (and upside down) can be seen the constellation of Aries. Taurus is shown immediately to its right. Leo is below and to the right of the center of the zodiac, treading on a serpent, and below and to the left of Leo one can see Virgo, holding an infant.

There is significant evidence to support this theory, that ancient Egyptian civilization did not evolve, but appeared in completed form at its inception. As John Anthony West explains, "Every aspect of Egyptian knowledge seems to have been complete at the very beginning. The sciences, artistic and architectural techniques and the hieroglyphic system show virtually no signs of a period of 'development'; indeed, many of the achievements of the earliest dynasties were never surpassed or even equalled later on. This astonishing fact is readily admitted by orthodox Egyptologists, but the magnitude of the mystery it poses is skillfully understated, while its many implications go unmentioned."

As Graham Hancock explains in The Message of the Sphinx, "the 'Followers of Horus' may not have been 'kings' in the usual sense of the word, but rather as immensely powerful and enlightened individuals - high initiates who were carefully selected by an elite academy that established itself at the sacred site of Heliopolis-Giza thousands of years before history began."

If we read (Psalms 110:1-7)"The LORD has sworn And will not relent, “You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek.” The "Law" is The Law of Moses. And it is known as the Nazirene Law. Covered in Numbers 6, The Nazirene Law applied to the priesthood only.

With the problem being that these men of religious authority in many instances used their positions to rule and live off the labors and wealth of the people. They not only charged for their services, and misled the people into believing that God approved of their many rituals and traditions, but the allegation against them that they devoured the wealth and houses of widows was a reality of life. see Nazirene Law

It was easy to see why the priesthood of Jesus would be difficult for early Jewish Christians to grasp. He was not from the lineage of Aaron. Jesus claimed nor practiced no special ministry in the temple. He confronted the religious structure instead of joining it. In Jesus’ day, the priesthood also become a corrupt institution. The custom had become High Priest in those days through intrigue and politicking among the corrupt priesthood.

A priest forever is an important contrast. Jesus’ priesthood (like Melchizedek’s) is unending, but no High Priest descended from Aaron ever had a forever priesthood.

"Today I have begotten You", refers to Jesus’ resurrection from the dead. At that time He fully assumed His role as our great High Priest, having been perfected (Hebrews 5:9).

What this means is that most of those Jews who generally believe they are Torah Observant because they are ritually clean, have yet to learn the secrets of the Law, and the manner in which they must apply the Divine Knowledge that has been given to them in the scriptures in the endeavor to open the Inner Door to the Kingdom within. And in like manner, because modern Christians have been anchored to this world by the Pagan doctrines of Rome which they continue to cling to, and falsely believe that they are exempt from works based upon Paul's doctrine of faith, they too have only alienated themselves from the Kingdom of God.

What did the Gospels look like before being edited and re-written by the Church of Rome? What were the original beliefs or the first followers of Yeshua? You will be astonished when you read a surviving text of The Gospel of the Nazirenes which was hidden away from the corrupters of the Roman Church.
see The Secret Doctrine What we fail to realize today is the fact that, in a religion with a true spiritual foundation, these differences of opinion -- opinions that are not permitted under government rule -- are an absolutely necessary.

We can observe this same problem at work today in Communist China. There is only one church -- which is the government ordained church. Doctrine is controlled -- religious thought and expression is controlled -- the clergy being ordained to their position by the state, is tightly controlled -- by virtue of these controls, the church is never at odds with the government -- and the very manner in which the people worship is also controlled. Genuine, spiritual religion, is suppressed, and anyone who deviates from the prescribed doctrine of the government-church is immediately dealt with -- severely.

Genuine followers of the Christ would have nothing to do with the likes of Constantine, and neither would they enter into a covenant with the secular powers of this world.

In a Spiritual Church such as that which Jesus ordained, the focus is not on the believer holding the proper set of beliefs, or a hierarchy of priests -- because the source and authority is spiritual, and remains above and beyond the physical world. The beliefs of each person are therefore seen as a product of the people's stage of spiritual development, and are in accordance with the individual person's condition in relation to man's spiritual reality. Because each person is at a different level of spiritual awareness, fixed creeds and dogma are a detriment to a truly spiritual religion.

Unbelievers are those who, because of their carnal thinking and lifestyle, are spiritually undeveloped, and do not have a solid spiritual connection with God. They may profess a belief in the Lord -- they may demonstrate the outward appearance of a religious person -- they may even be a priest or member of the clergy -- but because their heart and mind is focused on the things of this world, their condition is carnal, and they are said to be of the flesh rather than the spirit.

To a Spiritual Church, these unbelievers who put on the appearance of being a Christian are in fact an anchor to the soul of the Church, and cause it to be grounded in the error and darkness of this world. Their condition is one of spiritual sickness -- they are incomplete and not whole, and unable to connect with God in the true spiritual sense. As both Celsus and the Apostle Paul warns, if they are in too great a number, they will bring about the death and demise of the church itself.

So when Jesus said Lazerus was 'sick', he was refering to his spiritual unawareness.

In this commercial age science is concerned solely with the classification of physical knowledge and investigation of the temporal and illusionary parts of Nature. Its so-called practical discoveries bind man but more tightly with the bonds of physical limitation, Religion, too, has become materialistic: the beauty and dignity of faith is measured by huge piles of masonry, by tracts of real estate, or by the balance sheet. Philosophy which connects heaven and earth like a mighty ladder, up the rungs of which the illumined of all ages have climbed into the living presence of Reality--even philosophy has become a prosaic and heterogeneous mass of conflicting notions. Its beauty, its dignity, its transcendency are no more. Like other branches of human thought, it has been made materialistic--"practical"--and its activities so directionalized that they may also contribute their part to the erection of this modern world of stone and steel.

What do the lofty concepts of the world's illumined saviors and sages have in common with these stunted, distorted products of the "realism" of this century? All over the world men and women ground down by the soulless cultural systems of today are crying out for the return of the banished age of beauty and enlightenment--for something practical in the highest sense of the word. A few are beginning to realize that so-called civilization in its present form is at the vanishing point; that coldness, heartlessness, commercialism, and material efficiency are impractical, and only that which offers opportunity for the expression of love and ideality is truly worth while. All the world is seeking happiness, but knows not in what direction to search. Men must learn that happiness crowns the soul's quest for understanding. Only through the realization of infinite goodness and infinite accomplishment can the peace of the inner Self be assured. In spite of man's geocentricism, there is something in the human mind that is reaching out to philosophy--not to this or that philosophic code, but simply to philosophy in the broadest and fullest sense.

The great philosophic institutions of the past must rise again, for these alone can tend the veil which divides the world of causes from that of effects. Only the Mysteries- -those sacred Colleges of Wisdom--can reveal to struggling humanity that greater and more glorious universe which is the true home of the spiritual being called man. Modern philosophy has failed in that it has come to regard thinking as simply an intellectual process. Materialistic thought is as hopeless a code of life as commercialism itself. The power to think true is the savior of humanity. The mythological and historical Redeemers of every age were all personifications of that power. He who has a little more rationality than his neighbor is a little better than his neighbor. He who functions on a higher plane of rationality than the rest of the world is termed the greatest thinker. He who functions on a lower plane is regarded as a barbarian. Thus comparative rational development is the true gauge of the individual's evolutionary status.

Briefly stated, the true purpose of ancient philosophy was to discover a method whereby development of the rational nature could be accelerated instead of awaiting the slower processes of Nature, This supreme source of power, this attainment of knowledge, this unfolding of the god within, is concealed under the epigrammatic statement of the philosophic life. This was the key to the Great Work, the mystery of the Philosopher's Stone, for it meant that alchemical transmutation had been accomplished. Thus ancient philosophy was primarily the living of a life; secondarily, an intellectual method. He alone can become a philosopher in the highest sense who lives the philosophic life. What man lives he comes to know. Consequently, a great philosopher is one whose threefold life--physical, mental, and spiritual--is wholly devoted to and completely permeated by his rationality.

Man's physical, emotional, and mental natures provide environments of reciprocal benefit or detriment to each other. Since the physical nature is the immediate environment of the mental, only that mind is capable of rational thinking which is enthroned in a harmonious and highly refined material constitution. Hence right action, right feeling, and right thinking are prerequisites of right knowing, and the attainment of philosophic power is possible only to such as have harmonized their thinking with their living. The wise have therefore declared that none can attain to the highest in the science of knowing until first he has attained to the highest in the science of living. Philosophic power is the natural outgrowth of the philosophic life. Just as an intense physical existence emphasizes the importance of physical things, or just as the monastic metaphysical asceticism establishes the desirability of the ecstatic state, so complete philosophic absorption ushers the consciousness of the thinker into the most elevated and noble of all spheres--the pure philosophic, or rational, world.

The mystery school lessons were taught by Pythagoras 300 years before Christ. But we can go back much further than that to stone tablets discovered in Mesopotamia in the 1800's that were written 8000 years ago...before the deluge. Astrology was the main ingredient connected to religion, but science and a resounding respect for nature was also included. Of course this contridicts what the church believed to be the date of the flood by a few thousand years.

In the Regius Manuscript it states;
Grammar is the first science I know, Dialect the second, so I have I bliss, Rhetoric the third without nay, (doubt) Music is the fourth, as I you say, Astronomy is the fifth, by my snout, Arithmetic the sixth, without doubt, Geometry the seventh maketh an end. So much for legend, what about the facts? It is acknowledged that the Regius Manuscript held in the British Museum is the oldest genuine record of Masonic relevance and was written in 1390.

The ancients also studied medicine and the oldest of that evidence was found in the form of an Egyptian papyrus that is dated to 2660 BC. Another one known as the Rhind papyrus, is dated 1832 BC. In the opening paragraphs of the papyrus, Ahmose (1st King of the 18th dynasty or 'The New Kingdom' and Son of Sequenenre Tao II) presents the papyrus as giving “Accurate reckoning for inquiring into things, and the knowledge of all things, mysteries...all secrets”. another ... Rhind site.

One of the most amazing of these is the Ipuwer Papyrus which describes the Exodus as seen through the eyes of the Egyptians. David Rohl recently proposed a revised chronology, dating the Exodus to the Second Intermediate Period, in which case Ipuwer might refer to that event. Moreover, the association of Ipuwer with the Exodus is generally rejected by Egyptologists, those who interpret the Exodus as a historical event generally place it later, in the reign of Ramesses II. However the new theory is now supported by other archeological experts. Some have alternatively interpreted the poem's references to disturbances in nature as relating to the Thera eruption, which according to dendrochronology and radiocarbon dating occurred ca. 1650-1550 BCE.

There is also the Akhmim wooden tablet which is dated to 2000 BC. Then we have the Kahun Gynecological Papyrus, and the Westcar Papyrus, 2585-2566 BC. The Edwin Smith Papyrus and the Ebers Papyrus, 2660 BC. Paragraphs 1-3 contain magical spells designed to protect from supernatural intervention on diagnosis and treatment. They are immediately followed by a large section on diseases of the stomach (khet), with a concentration on intestinal parasites in paragraphs 50-85. more ..see the link. Paragraphs 242-247 contains remedies which are reputed to have been made and used personally by various gods. Only in paragraph 247, contained within the above mentioned section and relating to Isis' creation of a remedy for an illness in Ra's head, is a specific diagnosis mentioned. (Bryan 1930:45)

The theory that the mysteries concealed deep truths and remnants of a primitive revelation too profound for the popular mind is no longer believed, but undoubtedly the sacred rituals brought to the initiates secret religious doctrines, which in many instances were concerned with the continuance of life beyond the grave. The mysteries consisted of purifications, sacrificial offerings, processions, songs, dances, and dramatic performances. Often the birth, suffering, death, and resurrection of a god were enacted in dramatic form. The aim of the mysteries seems to have been twofold, namely, to give comfort and moral instruction for life on earth, and to inspire hope for life after death.

In those days magic was a sacred science. "It unveils the operations of nature," said Philo Judaeus, "and leads to the contemplation of celestial powers." Only those prepared by discipline were permitted to undertake its study. Learning first to develop their higher sensitivities, and to purify their intermediate nature so it would serve as a channel for the flow of spiritual forces, they then were allowed to study the occult and inner operations of natural forces. They discovered how, for instance, to use and control the more intangible forces of magnetism and electricity, the higher frequencies of vibration, of sound and color, and those mysterious potencies stored within the psychological nature of man and animal.

Scholars have overwhelmingly concluded the Babyloian texts are pre-bibical and are therefore more correct and detailed than scripture. The Tablets are called The Enuma Elish. There is also the Book of Jubilies, The Targum (Aramaic translation of the Hebrew Bible), the book of Jasher, The Book of Noah, The secret books of Enoch, the origional Torah and many more. If we include the Nag Hammidi Scrolls, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and The Egyptian Book of the Dead, we can easily see the connections emerge that tie all of it together. Even the Kaballah and Buddahism has bits and pieces of the truth intertwined in it's teachings.

In the Akkadian version he is called 'Utnapishtim' ('he has found (everlasting) life') The Babyloian version has the name Atrahasis ('exceedingly wise') in the Sumerian language. The various versions and fragments of the epic point to different traditions in Flood stories. The Sumerian Flood hero (the early Noah) is called Ubar-Tutu ('Friend of the god Tutu'), in other versions Ziusudra ('Life of long days') The epic named after the latter is very famous and is in Old Babylonian form dated to 1635 BCE. It exists also in later traditions.

An interesting and intriguing light on what the Book of Noah might have contained is to be found in the Book of Jubilees, another one of the Apocrypha (extrabiblical) books from the time of the Second Temple (or earlier).
- It states that the Angels “explained to Noah all the medicines, all the diseases and how he might heal them with herbs of the earth; and Noah wrote down all things in a book, concerning every kind of medicine.” And after the Deluge, Noah “was going to gave all that he had written to his son Shem.”...but Ham stole it.

Ishmael had twelve sons, who became the founders of so many Arab tribes or colonies, the Ishmaelites, who spread over the wide desert spaces of Northern Arabia from the Red Sea to the Euphrates (Gen. 37:25,27,28; 39:1), "their hand against every man, and every man's hand against them." Chapters 16-25 of the book of Genesis contain the stories of Ishmael. Historians and academics in the fields of linguistics and source criticism believe that the stories of Ishmael belong to the three strata of J,(the J, or Jahwist, source; written c. 950 BC in the southern kingdom of Judah.) (The name Yahweh begins with a J in Wellhausen's native German.) or Yahwist source, the P, or Priestly source, and the E, or Elohist source (the E, or Elohist, source; written c. 850 BC in the northern kingdom of Israel) (See Documentary hypothesis). For example, The narration in Genesis 16 is of J type and the narration in Genesis 21:8-21 is of E type. The D, or Deuteronomist, source; written c. 621 BC in Jerusalem during a period of religious reform. D takes the form of a series of sermons about the Law, and consists of most of Deuteronomy. Its distinctive term for God is YHWH Elohainu, translated in English as "The Lord our God." Originally composed c. 650-621 BC. more..see Ishmael

Here we have established two sets of texts; The Elohist and the Jahwist, source. It is the oldest source, whose narratives make up half of Genesis and the first half of Exodus, plus fragments of Numbers. J describes a human-like God, called Yahweh (or rather YHWH) throughout, and has a special interest in the territory of the Kingdom of Judah and individuals connected with its history. J was composed c 950 BC and later incorporated into the Torah (c 400 BC). In this source God's name is always presented as the tetragrammaton, YHWH, which scholars transliterate in modern times as Yahweh (or as Jahweh, after the German spelling: Jahweh), and in earlier times as Jehovah, or simply as the LORD, which is the case in the King James translation.

In attempting to identify the author of the Jahwist text, fundamentalist Christians and Jews suggest that this original "core" of the Torah was written by Moses himself, and that the obviously post-schism pro-Judah material was added by the JE redactor to balance the pro-Israel material of the Elohist. This would put the origin of the original Jahwist text somewhere around 1300-1500 BC. This is not accepted by non-fundamentalist scholars. The Jahwist's story begins much earlier than the Elohist's; in fact, it begins at the beginning. Consequently, it introduces stories concerning the general human condition, both large tales such as Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, as well as brief stories, like that of the Curse of Ham, and the tower of Babel. It also includes general creation stories, such as that of creation itself, the flood, and the badly truncated, and thus difficult to interpret, story of the Nephilim.

The Jahwist is the only source involving talking animals, both in the tale of Adam and Eve, and also in the episode of the Ass of Balaam, neither of which appear in the Elohist work. J is thought to derive from amongst the Aaronid priesthood, and to reflect their polemic opinions in the text. Polemics is the practice of disputing or controverting religious, philosophical, or political matters. As such, a polemic text on a topic is often written specifically to dispute or refute a position or theory that is widely viewed to be beyond reproach. Polemic is also a branch of theology, pertaining to the history or conduct of ecclesiastical controversy.

J has a reduced focus on Moses' importance (the priests of Shiloh were more likely to be descended from Moses than from Aaron - hence "Mushites"), and supports the symbols controlled by the Aaronid religion such as the Ark and the Jerusalem Temple.

While P uses Elohim and El Shaddai as names of God, unlike the Elohist, P treats God as transcendental, and distant, acting only through priests, and communicating only via the priesthood. In P, while God is just, God is also unmerciful, and applies brutal, and abrupt, punishment when laws are broken, such as killing 12,000 people with an instant plague, merely because they complained. P is regarded by the majority of scholars as particularly inelegant, and most think themselves able to recognize a text from P on sight due to this.

The Elohist (E) is one of four sources of the Torah described by the Documentary Hypothesis. Its name comes from the term it uses for God: Elohim. It portrays a God who is less anthropomorphic than YHWH of the earlier Jahwist source ("J"). Anthropomorphism is the attribution of uniquely human characteristics to non-human creatures and beings, natural and supernatural phenomena, material states and objects or abstract concepts. Subjects for anthropomorphism commonly include animals depicted as creatures with human motivation able to reason and converse, forces of nature such as winds or the sun. Anthropomorphism of God is condemned by Islam, since Muslims feel that God is beyond human limits of physical comprehension.

Since the end of the 19th century, it has been argued that the Elohist was composed in northern Israel (Ephraim) c 850 BC, combined with the Jahwist to form JE c 750 BC, and finally incorporated into the Torah c 400 BC. The Elohist promotes Israel over Judah, and Levitical priests over Judah's Aaronite priests. E includes Abraham's mission to sacrifice Isaac, Moses calling down plagues on Egypt, Aaron and the golden calf, the Covenant Code, and Joseph as an interpreter of dreams. This will be very important later.

An example of the conflict comes from Hosea 11:12, "Israel surrounds me with lies and deceit..but Judah still trusts in God and is faithfil to the Holy One."

The tribe of Judah sprang from one man--Judah, who was only one of Israel's (Jacob's) children. They were later called the Jews. The Jewish people are only one-thirteenth of the tribes of Israel. This is a bit confusing because most Jews live in the country of Israel and in New York State. However, we can see that all Jews are Israelites but not all Israelites are Jewish.

God said the House of Israel would be taken captive. Take note that the House of Judah (Jews) is mentioned by itself, and that both nations are mentioned together as the House of Isaac. Therefore, it requires both Israel and Judah together to make up the House of Isaac. Amos 7:9-16 "'The high places of Isaac shall be desolate, And the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste.

The tribe of Levi became the Levitical priesthood, was scattered among all the tribes*, and was not counted as a tribal nation (Lev. 1:47-50). Thus, although there were actually thirteen tribes, they were counted only as twelve tribal nations. * Most of the Levites returned to Jerusalem soon after the ancient nation of Israel divided into two nations (2 Chron 11:13) yet they never were counted as a nation of Israel.

(The Bible described King Solomon as the “wisest of men” who could discourse on the biodiversity of all the plants, “from cedars of Lebanon to the hyssop that grows out of a wall, and animals, and birds, and creeping things, and fishes.”)

Solomon's tribute to Wisdom:
"She is an inexhaustible treasure for mankind, and those who profit by it become God's friends, commended to him by the gifts they derive from her instruction. God grant that I may speak according to his will, and that my own thoughts may be worthy of his gifts; for even wisdom is under God's direction and he corrects the wise; we and our words, prudence and knowledge and craftsmanship, all are in his hand. He himself gave me true understanding of things as they are: a knowledge of the structure of the world and the operation of the elements; the beginning and end of epochs and their middle course; the alternating solstices and changing seasons; the cycles of the years and the constellations; the nature of living creatures and behaviour of wild beasts; the violent force of winds and the thoughts of men; the varieties of plants and the virtues of roots. I learnt it all, hidden or manifest, for I was taught by he whose skill made all things, wisdom. For in wisdom there is a spirit intelligent and holy, unique in its kind yet made up of many parts, subtle, free-moving, lucid, spotless, clear, invulnerable, loving what is good, eager, unhindered, beneficent, kindly towards men, steadfast, unerring, touched by care, all-powerful, all-surveying, and permeating all intelligent, pure, and delicate spirits." see The Wisdom of Solomon

He could do so (understanding) because in addition to the Wisdom and the Understanding (intelligence) that were God-given, he also acquired Da ‘at/i—learned knowledge). One of the 'Books of Solomon' contained all the names of the Angels. In these 'Odes' we also see reference to the Pistis Sophia. which is another hidden work of the Disciples and Christ that is in the Nag Hammidi Scrolls collection. Ode 15: The thought of knowledge hath been mine, and I have been delighted through Him."
The mention of the Dove refers to a lost Gospel to which there are rare references in ancient writings.

We included this compairson of Buddha (ca. 500 B.C.E) with the stories about Jesus to make our point but this is only one of several instances where the stories of these gods were incorporated into the stories about Jesus. They include Prometheus of Greece, Krishna of India, Horus and Mithra, Sun-god of Persia (ca. 600 B.C.E.).

1. Buddha was born of the virgin Maya, who was considered the “Queen of Heaven.” (cf. Jer 44:25).
2. He was of royal descent.
3. He crushed a serpent’s head.
4. He performed miracles and wonders, healed the sick, fed 500 men from a “small basket of cakes,” and walked on water.
5. He abolished idolatry, was a “sower of the word,” and preached “the establishment of a kingdom of righteousness.
6. He taught chastity, temperance, tolerance, compassion, love, and the equality of all.
7. He was transfigured on a mount.
8. Sakya Buddha was crucified in a sin-atonement, suffered for three days in hell, and was resurrected.
9. He ascended to Nirvana or “heaven.”
10. Buddha was considered the “Good Shepherd”, the “Carpenter”, the “Infinite and Everlasting.”
11. He was called the “Savior of the World” and the “Light of the World.”

In fact, the Egyptian religion is likely the primary foundational basis for the Judeo-Christian theology.

Baptism, afterlife, final judgment, virgin birth and resurrection, crucifixion, the ark of the covenant, circumcision, saviors, holy communion, the great flood, Easter, Christmas, Passover, and many many more, are all attributes of Egyptian ideas, long predating Christianity and Judaism.

"The wisdom of Solomon as described in 1 Kings was, of course, legendary, and it came to be assumed that such wisdom must have included great knowledge of the magical arts and power over the spirit world. Yes King Solomon used 'magic' but it was used to protect the followers and priests and heal the sick. He also used it to punish blasphemers, with a 'fire stick'.

This magic is mentioned again in the Masonic degree work when Moses was told to build a brazen serpent, and put it on a pole, and all who looked upon it were cured of the serpent's venom. The 'serpent' in this context means 'knower of wisdom'. It is not a literal serpent or snake. This most likely refers to a person or enity. One guifted in magical arts but determined to hurt, make ill or punish man. And most importantly, we see two serpents - two knowers of 'Wisdom' who are apparently 'opposites'. To make this point clear, there is white magic and there is dark magic.

How many times do we have to say it. Occult means "secret", NOT SATANIC!.. look it up in the dictionary.

To this very day there are sermons on the internet by preachers, warning people to stay away from the 'occult'. To some extent this is true if you do not have the knowledge it takes to stay away from dark magic, like a Ouija board. But 'occult' has become a demonized word that the church placed on those who disagreed with them or their teachings and had a alternative religious view. They call astrology an 'occult' practice. Sooth sayers were psychics and were to be avoided at all costs and Tarot card readers were devils and the list goes on and on.

King Solomon was said to be able to control demons just by knowing their name. He made them work. Asath [Asach]: an Angel invoked in Solomonic magical rites.
see Ornias in the Testament of Solomon
Take note of the reference to The Water pourer and the 'sign' of Aquarius. "I strangle those who reside in Aquarius because of their passion for women whose zodiacal sign is Virgo."

Ashael: an invocation Angel, mentioned in M. Gaster, see the introduction , first and then this;
The Sword of Moses. To take a modern example, the charm against the Evil Eye will contain the name of Christ or of a Saint in a Christian charm, the name of Muhammad in the Muhammedan, and that of an angel or a mysterious name of God in the Jewish formula, though all the rest would be identical.

Ashriel: "Vow of God" - one of the seven Angels with dominion over the Earth. He is the Angel who separates the soul from the body at death. In the Cabala, he is invoked as a curer of stupidity.

Unchanged Jewish traditions require that certain rituals and blessings called for on the Sabbath and High Holidays services must be performed only by a Cohen. The term, meaning “priest,” was first used in the Bible to describe Aaron and his sons. Ever since then, the designation has been passed down through the generations from fathers to sons. And the only way to become a Cohen is to be born as a son of one. This privileged status has been as often as not identified by using “Cohen” as a family name (transmuted into Kahn, Kahane, Kuhn) or as an adjective added after a person’s name, so and so Ha-Cohen, “the priest.” Zecharia Sitchin The Cosmic Code p132-133.
The word seems to have been twisted again to represent COVEN or Cowan which means 'witch'.

Witchcraft: The fear of witchcraft is a natural outcome of the belief in spirits and in the possibility of controlling or using them. If religion did not originate this superstition, it certainly did a good deal to strengthen it. Indeed, Protestant as well as Catholic Christianity at one time bitterly persecuted those who did not believe in the efficacy of witchcraft. For the writers of the Bible certainly believed that witches could recall even the prophets from the dead; and the Mosaic law specifically commanded that witches should be put to death.

Magic: The Hebrew tradition with its strong condemnation of magic gives a 'reasonable' explanation for the occurrence - reasonable, if one believes in an almighty god playing around with the so-called laws of physics. To the Egyptians on the other hand magic was an inseparable part of life, a tool to be embraced rather than shunned. see the Westcar papyrus. Now because of religious prosecution, it is closely related to witchcraft.. Recent writers like Frazer are inclined to draw a sharp distinction between magic and religion. But though the Church hindered the progress of physics, chemistry, and medicine by persecuting magicians, the belief that the course of nature could be changed by invoking supernatural agencies or spirits is common to both religion and magic. The magician cures you by an incantation, pronouncing a strange formula; the priest or rabbi does it by a blessing; the saint does it posthumously to anyone who touches his relics. The magician brings rain by rubbing a stick, the priest by a prayer.

Psychics: We have come to except physics like John Edwards, Sylvia Brown, Edgar Cacey, ect. Sylvia Brown was on the Montel Williams show on Wednesdays. She answered questions that members of the audience pose. She delt with a wide variety of subjects from; "When will I meet the 'right' person?", to messages from beyond the grave from loved ones. Of course there are 'fanatics' who discredit each one of the people we mention. But to the people who have been helped by these physics, they are real and tell the truth. Sylvia recently said that missing high school senior Natalie Holloway, was thrown into the Ocean in Aruba. An investigate reporter named Peter R. de Vries posed as a friend of suspect Joran van der Sloot. "Her body, van der Sloot said, had been dumped in the ocean by a friend with a boat." He admitted his first call wasn't to the hospital or to the police -- but to a friend to help dispose of the body. Aruban investigators recalled the suspects with this information in hand but couldn't get a confession. Sylvia predicted this 4 months before the report came out.

We even have a TV show about a psychic. Patricia Arquette plays Allison DuBois on NBC's Medium. For the past three seasons, Allison has served as a part-time consultant to the district attorney's office in Phoenix, Ariz., using her psychic abilities to solve violent and horrifying crimes that have mystified authorities, including her now former boss D.A. Devalos (Miguel Sandoval, "The Division") and others within the criminal justice system. The show is based on the true-life experiences of the psychic.

Ghost hunters... Another TV show on cable has the investigators encountering strange noises, doors slaming, and audio of an unexplained origin. And there's the International Ghost Hunters Society , who usually go to haunted places with special cameras that capture heat or energy. 'Orbes' are captured on film and video. These are 'traped souls' looking for a way out of their physical earthbound plane. Other orbs are angels protecting us. There may be 3 or 4 protecting a small child and Sylvia says we all have a 'guide'. One who whispers in our ear to warn us of impending disaster or guide us in our daily routine. see Ghost Stories

The book, Isis Unviled offers this explaination; The philosophers, and especially those who were initiated into the Mysteries, held that the astral soul is the impalpable duplicate of the gross external form which we call body. The astral 'perisprit is contained and confined within the physical body as ether is in a bottle, or magnetism in magnetized iron. Its inherent activity causes the incessant physical operations of the animal organism and ultimately results in the destruction of the latter by overuse and its own escape. It is the prisoner, not the voluntary tenant, of the body. It has an attraction so powerful to the external universal force that after wearing out its casing it finally escapes from it. The stronger, grosser, more material its encasing body, the longer the term of its imprisonment. There's more on our page called "Light".

If a formula or ritual invokes the accepted god and is performed by the authorized person, it is religion. If the god, the act, or the agent is not an authorized one, the first is referred to as a devil, the second as a sacrilege, and the third as a magician. The Church regarded the pagan deities as demons.

Both religion and magic generally involve the influence of the supernatural -- though the magicians more frequently studied the physical or medicinal properties of the substances they used. The fetish-worshiper attaches magical potency to stones, but so does the Bible. Touching the Ark, even with the most worshipful intention, brings death. Two of Aaron's sons were killed when they entered the main part of the temple unprepared to be in the presence of the Ark. They didn't even touch it! Afterwards Moses ordered they be taken far from the tents to be buried.

So what killed them? We might have the answer on our Ark of the Covenant page.
