Creator’s Deliberate Design in the Pi and Phi Ratios.

 

Creator’s Deliberate Design in the Pi and Phi Ratios.

We have shared a good portion of material on on the geometric keys of the Phi ratio in God’s Word, in the last 22 years, both on this blog and the [try-god.com] website. We have made a strong case on the science of the sacred geometry of both the Pi and Phi ratios during this time, that shows the evidence of how our Almighty Creator employed these geometric principles in His Creation of the Universe, and the Four kingdoms of Life. But we are presenting key evidence today, that we have not previously shown, regarding the importance of the Phi Ratio in this study, which makes our case even stronger. First, lets review the context of the application of the Phi and Pi ratios in the Hebrew Tabernacle and Temple, as the Ark of the Covenant was first transferred to Israel’s Temple, from the Tabernacle. We also are taking a special interest in how the Heavenly Father has emphasized the role of His only Begotten Son as the Chief CornerStone and the head of the spiritual body of his Church.

II Chron 5:1-14
 Thus all the work that Solomon made for the house of the LORD was finished: and Solomon brought in all the things that David his father had dedicated; and the silver, and the gold, and all the instruments, put he among the treasures of the house of God. 2Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which is Zion.  3Wherefore all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto the king in the feast which was in the seventh month4And all the elders of Israel came; and the Levites took up the ark5And they brought up the ark, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that were in the tabernacle, these did the priests and the Levites bring up. 6Also king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel that were assembled unto him before the ark, sacrificed sheep and oxen, that could not be told nor numbered for multitude.

7And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD unto his place, to the oracle of the house, into the most holy place, even under the wings of the Cherubims8For the Cherubims spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the Cherubims covered the ark and the staves thereof above. 9And they drew out the staves of the ark, that the ends of the staves were seen from the ark before the oracle; but they were not seen without. And there it is unto this day. 10There was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put therein at Horeb, when the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt. 11And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place: (for all the priests that were present were sanctified, and did not then wait by course: 12 Also the Levites which were the singers, all of them of Asaph, of Heman, of Jeduthun, with their sons and their brethren, being arrayed in white linen, having cymbals and psalteries and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them an hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets:) 13It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music and praised the LORD saying, For He is good; for His mercy endures forever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the LORD; 14 So that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of God.

We have shown in past research that the ground-plans for the Tabernacle and the Temple were closely related to the same sacred geometric principles of the Pi and Phi RatiosThe terrestrial blueprint mirrors Venn Diagram at the astronomical North pole, [Fig. B.]. These two altars depict the bipolar structure of the heavens, seen both in the galactic poles of two great celestial circles of the ecliptic and the Equator in northern skies, as a reflection of the Earth’s Magnetic and Geographic bipolar system. The interplay between these galactic poles exhibits precession of the poles, as the pole star had receded from the archaic poleThuban of Draco, to the star Polaris of Ursa Minor. Within the common space shared between the poles of the two circles moving in opposite directions, lies the Venn Diagram or the astronomical vesica of the North Pole. The quote below from Nigel Pennick shows us how original principles of “sacred geometry” are preserved in the dimensions and measures of the Tabernacle & Temple in the elements of their walls, furniture, columns, clothing, altars, architecture & orientation. This divine celestial plan modeled in the Hebrew Temple and Tabernacle, is the basis of the “sacred geometry” adopted by Freemasons and others before them, who tainted these concepts in the defiled context of their mysticism and astrology, cut from their authentic roots in the Astronomy of the Biblical Patriarchs. This study endeavors to return this Astronomy to its genuine roots, dispensing with corrupt astrological influences and pagan mythology of various ancient cultures and occult secret societies.

Figure AThe Plans of the Hebrew Temple and Tabernacle. #1

King Solomon obeyed the will of God by having the Ark of the Covenant brought into the Temple to dedicate it, during the Feast of Tabernacles, in the most sacred seventh month of Tishri. During this time: the trumpeters and 120 priests and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD…Like the fallen angels in the choral units of their first estate [Job 38:7], the priests as trumpeters and singers were in one accord, in making one sound in worship and praise to God the Creator. This O.T. account foreshadows a time in the future, when the body of Christ fully supersedes Lucifer and his fallen angels in their original ministry of worshipful songs in praise to Almighty God. This record of the transfer of the Ark of the Covenant from the Tabernacle to the Temple is important because the Ark represented the presence of God among His people. The God-given architectural blueprints for both the Tabernacle and Temple were designed to embody the framework of the celestial structure of Creation in miniature, on the terrestrial level, as a reflection of heaven on the earth.

This view is supported in the following quote from Nigel Pinnock, who details some key elements in the pattern given by God to David: “The Tabernacle stood inside a court whose geometry was a double square [1 x 2 rectangle], 100 cubits long by 50 cubits wide. Inside the double square enclosure was a triple square 30 cubits long and 10 cubits wide. Its walls were built of wood planks 1.5 cubits wide and 10 cubits high, held in line by strong horizontal bars of wood. The whole structure was covered with skins sewn together in strips 30 cubits long by 4 cubits wide. The Tabernacle was placed in the court towards the west, with its entrance oriented east-wards, so that according to Josephus: “when the Sun arose it might send its first rays upon it.” The Tabernacle’s interior was divided into two compartments, a scheme which was copied later in the Temple…..The outer compartment called the Holy Place, was a double square 20 by 10 cubits, whilst the inner compartment, the Holy of Holies, comprised a single square. As the height of the Tabernacle’s ceiling was also 10 cubits, the Holy of Holies enclosure was a perfect cube that held the Ark of the Covenant. The Altar of Sacrifice was the outer equivalent of the Ark of the Covenant. It stood at the center of the outer of the two squares of the enclosure. The altar represented one of the two poles at the center of two squareseach upon its own center of polarity...” 2 “The Temple measures, like the Tabernacle before it, were precisely detailed: [I Chronicles 28, II Chronicles 3]. A triple square double the size of the Tabernacle, and the walls of the Temple were hewn stone lined inside with wood overlaid with gold. The interior comprised a double square rectangular holy place, and a single square Holy of Holies. The interior was 20 cubits high, making the Holy of Holies again, a cubic enclosure. At the very center of the Holy of Holies stood the Ark of the Covenant, which formerly had occupied the central point of the Holy of Holies of the Tabernacle… The entrance to the Temple was 5 cubits in width, and opened from a porch which comprised two squares of 10 x 10 cubits. It was this porch which supported the two pillarsJachin & Boaz.” The Tabernacle/Temple ground plans of Israel show a heavenly image of eastward access to God’s presence, via the High Priest’s annual ministry inside the holiest of all. As Pinnock says, the brazen altar of burnt offering: “represented one of two poles at the center of two squareseach on its own center of polarity.”3# This bipolar system of two poles-the ecliptic and Equator reflected iearthly counterparts of the altars, in both the holy of holies and the holy place.

The geometric basis of the foundation underlying the structure of the Hebrew Tabernacle and Temple is called a Vesica Piscis. The sacred geometry of the Vesica Piscis is rich in symbolism as we will see in the graphics below. In Plate 1, we have 4 illustrations that show varying symbolic key references that we will explore to extract their wisdom.

The Geometric Nature of the Vesica Piscis

“The straight lines and angles of geometry symbolize the limitations of our physical world, while the curves and circles symbolize infinite possibilities of the spiritual realm.” — Hasidic teaching.

In geometry, the Vesica Piscis is not just a visually appealing shape, but a lens-shaped figure that embodies mathematical precision. It includes key proportions and ratios, like the square root of 3 and the ratio of the width to its height, that is the square root of 3 divided by 2. These precise ratios give the Vesica Piscis a sense of harmony and balance, based in the study of sacred geometry. As our gaze explores the deeper meanings of the Hasidic quote above, when applied to the vesica piscis, below we find the symbolism of the product of two infinite realms. This is a metaphor of the universe, known in Hebrew as “Olam”, whose etymology is from “hidden”, the implication being that the universe is the place where God is “hidden. That is to say, the infinite God is hidden in the finite universe, the two intersecting circles representing this idea. #4


The mathematical roots and ratios found in the Vesica Piscis
.
The mathematical roots √2, √3 and √5 are found in the Vesica as seen above. These square roots continue infinitely beyond the decimal point, without a repeating pattern. These numbers are found not only in sacred structures like the Hebrew Temple, and other ancient cultures, but also throughout nature.

 The Energy Field of Vesica Piscis

In Illust. 1 above; the quotient of any Fibonacci number and its predecessor approaches Phi (34/21 = 1.618) equal to the golden ratio, 1:1.618. A rectangle unevenly divided will result in one square and one rectangle, with sides @ 1:1, with a new rectangle in exact proportions to the 1st rectangle 1:1.618. The Phi rectangle in Illust. 1 – Golden Rectangle, matches the 2 rectangles in Illust2 above, show both the “measure of the fish,” from Archimedes and Pythagoras, as Christ is reflected in the sacred geometry of the North Astronomical Vesica, below in Fig. B. First, we see Christ in an Illust2; Measure of the Fish, amidst the Golden Rectangles, as the circles overlap in the North Pole Vesica, in Plate 2 and Figure B below, with Christ as Cepheus-the enthroned King, at the right hand of the Almighty, in the north skies.

Plate 2. The North Polar Vesica
draco

Between his feet is our current Pole Star-Polaris, of Ursa Minor, which has overtaken the archaic pole star of Thuban, in Draco’s tail, at the apex of a right Equilateral triangle holding Ursa Minor from 5,000 years ago. At first look, an analysis of this image shows two interlocked Vesica Circles containing 3 decans of Draco the dragon, Cepheus the Crowned king, and the little bear of Ursa Minor between them. Inside this Vesica at the North pole we find the same geometric image in Illustration 4, divided by a red center line forming the common base of two equilateral triangles, one on the right containing most of Ursa Minor, while the other on the left holds a large part of Cepheus the crowned king. This is critical because it depicts the transition of the North Pole star from Thuban of Draco, to Polaris at the tail end of Ursa Minor, the little bear, located between the feet of King Cepheus. This relates a dialogue and celestial chronicle of the fall of the Dragon and the rise of King Jesus, the Morning Star. Since the dragon was expelled from his rulership over angelic cohorts, he was supplanted by Jesus Christ, whose rule over Creation with a rod of iron is everlasting. The 2 upper lines of the right Equilateral triangle tell a story as their bases form the bipolar structure of the North pole, with the stationary pole of the ecliptic, around which the equatorial pole moves, accounts for the precession of the pole star from Thuban to Polaris. With Christ’s perfect Sacrifice, Resurrection and Ascension he took dominion from the dragon as seen in the pole star underfoot of King Cepheus.

As the Cornerstone prophecy in Luke 20:17b-18 tells us; “The [very] Stone which the builders rejected has become the chief Stone of the corner18 Everyone who falls on that Stone will be broken  [in pieces]; but upon whomever It falls, It will crush him [to be winnowed by him and [k]scatter him as dust].” [Ps.118:22 [rosh-H7218; head, Job 22:12, Zech. 4:7] Here we see Jesus Chief Cornerstone at the peak of the Heavens, as the Astronomical Northern Pole Star and apex of the Great Pyramid the King ruling from his exclusive roost not only over all those who opposed and rejected him, but also as Head [highest & supreme] of his spiritual body-God’s unified People! [Eph. 5:23]

The 3rd Illustration from Plate 1, above called the “Cosmic Egg,’ can embody the idea of a “union of opposites,” in varied contexts. As the Vesica Piscis itself is a union of Heaven and Earth, we can also see how the Ecliptic and the Equator overlay one another, both in the plans of the Hebrew Temple and Tabernacle, and also on celestial maps. But, from a spiritual view, we see Christ unifying his spiritual body of the Church, that includes both Jews and Gentiles, who shared very little in common in the OT, as we find in Ephesians 2:11-16; [Ampl. Bible]

Ephesians 2:11-16, 20-22
11 Therefore, remember that at one time you were Gentiles (heathens) in the flesh, called Uncircumcision by those who called themselves Circumcision, [itself a [e]mere mark] in the flesh made by human hands. 12 [Remember] that you were at that time separated (living apart) from Christ [excluded from all part in Him], utterly estranged and outlawed from the rights of Israel as a nation, and strangers with no share in the sacred compacts of the [Messianic] promise [with no knowledge of or right in God’s agreements, His covenants]. And you had no hope (no promise); you were in the world without God13 But now in Christ Jesus, you who once were [so] far away, through (by, in) the blood of Christ have been brought near14 For he is [himself] our peace (our bond of unity and harmony). He has made us both [Jew and Gentile] one [body], and has broken down (destroyed, abolished) the hostile dividing wall between us15 By abolishing in His [own crucified] flesh the enmity [caused by] the Law with its decrees and ordinances [which He annulled]; that he from the two might create in himself one new man [one new quality of humanity out of the two], so making peace16 And [He designed] to reconcile to God both [Jew and Gentile, united] in a single body by means of his cross, thereby killed the mutual enmity and bringing the feud to an end.

The amazing spiritual unity that is now shared in the body of Christ between Jews and Gentiles is only due to the singular love of Christ, who sacrificed himself the on the cross, for our salvation. Finally, in the 4th Illustration of the Golden Rectangle of Plate 1 above, we see not only Equilateral Triangles of the North pole, that can embody the triangular sides of the Great Pyramid, but also 2 triangles in the center Vesica at the Pyramid’s apex of the Chief Cornerstone. This Plate 1 graphic shows a line that could separate two of the triangular sides of the Great Pyramid, [Eph. 2:11-12] now bound together in Christ’s unity of love, [Eph. 2:13-16].

Ephesians 2:20-22 20 You are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets with Christ Jesus Himself the chief Cornerstone21 In him the whole structure is joined (bound, welded) together harmoniously, and it continues to rise (increase, grow) into a holy temple in the Lord [a sanctuary dedicated, consecrated, and sacred to the presence of the Lord]. 22 In him [and in fellowship with one another] you yourselves also are being built up [into this structure] with the rest, to form a fixed abode (dwelling place) of God in (by, through) the Spirit.

As we spiritually grow together in the Church of the Body of Christ, we grow in a Golden Symphony, increasing in our capacity to love according to the perfect standard and pattern of the Tabernacle that Christ himself laid down and abides by. It is the same perfect standard that the Heavenly Father employed in Creation, [Rom. 1:19-20]. As we follow the dictates of this perfect standard, we embody the Christ in us, and on this path to gloryChrist indeed will be fully formed in us as we stay faithful to this standard, [Gal. 2:20].

Galatians 2:20
20 I have been crucified with Christ [in Him I have shared His crucifixion]; it is no longer I who live, but Christ (the Messiah) lives in me; and the life I now live in the body I live by faith in (by adherence to and reliance on and complete trust in) the Son of God, Who loved me and gave Himself up for me.

Plate 3. The 8 Sides of the Great Pyramid. #6
 

“One very unusual feature of the Great Pyramid is the concavity of its four faces, which makes the monument an 8-sided figure, rather than 4-sided like most of the pyramids. In other words, the four sides are hollowed to the inside. This concavity is executed to such an extraordinary degree of precision as to complement the mystery of the structure. From any ground position, it is invisible to the naked eye and only noticed from the air; indeed it was discovered by accident by a British air force pilot flying over the Giza Plateau in 1940, who didn’t miss the chance at this photograph. during the Spring Equinox (21 March). Flinders Petrie voiced a similar observation already, when he noted a hollowing in the core masonry in the center of each face that the courses of the core had dips of as much as 1®.” The concavity was presumed to prevent the casing stones from sliding, i.e. to better bond the nucleus to the casing.” Another theory-a more aesthetic one was: concave faces are more pleasing to the eye, when the value of Phi, is equal to the secant of the face angle of the inner triangle, is also equal toratio of the Pyramid slant height and 1/2 its base-length, that applies to every one of the 8 right-angle triangular faces. Each of the 8-sided faces confirms the Golden Ratio so that it is inscribed into a Golden Rectangle in which the height/base = PhiIt is beyond any doubt that the dimensions of the Great Pyramid are not a coincidence conforming to Pi or Phi.”#7 It is more & more obvious the Giza Plateau in general and specifically the Great Pyramid, were designed to encode sophisticated scientific knowledge.

Plate 4. Airborne photo of the Great Pyramid showing its 8 sides. #8

r/interestingasfuck - a pyramids in the desert

A pyramid based on Phi varies by only 0.025% from the Great Pyramid’s estimated dimensionsPhi is the only number that has the mathematical property of its square being one more than itself:

Φ + 1 = Φ²   or   1.618… + 1 = 2.618

By applying the above Pythagorean equation to this, we can construct a right triangle, of sides a, b and c, or in this case a Golden Triangle of sides √Φ, 1 and Φ, which looks like this:

Golden Ratio Triangle of Great Pyramid of Egypt

This creates a pyramid with a base width of 2 (i.e., two triangles above placed back-to-back on each side of the pyramid) and a height of the square root of Phi, 1.272. This ratio of the height to the base is 0.636.

According to Wikipedia, the Great Pyramid has a base of 230.4 meters (755.9 feet) and an estimated original height of 146.5 meters (480.6 feet). This also creates a height to  base ratio of 0.636, which indicates it is indeed a Golden Triangle, at least to within three significant decimal places of accuracy. If the base is indeed exactly 230.4 meters then a perfect golden ratio would have a height of 146.5367. This varies from the estimated actual dimensions of the Great Pyramid by only 0.0367 meters (1.4 inches) or 0.025%, which could be just a measurement or rounding difference. #9

A pyramid based on golden triangles would have other interesting properties.  The surface area of the four sides would be a golden ratio of the surface area of the base. The area of each triangular side is the base x height/2, or 2 x Φ/2 or Φ. The surface area of the base is 2 x 2, or 4. So four sides is 4 x Φ / 4, or Φ for the ratio of sides to base. #10

The Fibonacci sequence ties directly to the Golden ratio because if you take any of two successive Fibonacci numbers, their ratio is very close to the Golden ratio. As the numbers get higher, the ratio increases to closer Phi values of 1.618. For example the ratio of 3/5 1.666. But the ratio of 13/21= 1.625. With even higher, numbers the ratio of 21/34 = 1.618. These numbers are all successive numbers in the Fibonacci sequence, as these numbers are applied to the proportions of a rectangle, called a Golden rectangle, known as one of the most beautiful and visually satisfying of all geometric forms – hence, the Golden ratio is pervasive in artistic expression. The golden rectangle also ties to the Golden spiral, as it generates the adjacent squares of Fibonacci dimensions. This Golden Spiral is defined as a logarithmic spiral, seen in nature affirming the basis of growth life in the plant, animal, human and spirit kingdoms of life. It is also built-into the structure of the universe, as the logarithmic spiral appears in spiral arms of galaxies. #11

The purity of artistic expression mentioned above in connection with the Golden Rectangle was seen in the early 20th century when archaeologists opened the tomb at Saqqara of the Egyptian architect Khesi-Ra, (an Imhotep contemporary), who was the chief of doctors in the 27th century BC, the main writer and architect of the king and above all a carver. There were 11 boards in his tomb. At first, Egyptologists accepted these panels as false doors, but later it was noticed that there was the proportion 1 : root (5) on the panel [Phi = (1+root(5))/2]. When the height of Khesi-Ra is divided into 18 even segments the navel [of the ideal man] is exactly where one expects to find it according to the classic canon 11:18. The numbers 11 and 18 are close to the ratio of Phi; and they belong to a sequence very much like Fibonacci– (Lucas) sequence composed of the numbers: 2, 1, 3, 4, 7, 11, 18, 29, etc., where the ratio between two successive elements tends similarly to Phi. #12

Vesica Piscis 265 153

The graphic below shows another view of the precession of the poles as the  interlocking wheels of the ecliptic and Equator, with the fish shaped lens of the vesica between them. This “vessel of the fish” is formed from the lozenge of these two interlocking circlescentered o each other’s perimeter. We see the import of Archimedes’ formula of the “Measure of the fish,” to geometry and mathematics in the ratio of its height to its length [153:265], as it represented the nearest whole number approximation of the square root of three, with the controlling ratio of equilateral triangles.#13  In ancient Greece, Pythagoras endorsed 153 as the denominator of the closest fraction to the square root of 3 [265/153], known to the “ratio of the fish” drawn between the two interlocking vesica circles, on each other’s circumference. This provides a basis where we can explore the genuine aspects of the Creator’s application of mathematics and geometry in His order of Creation.

Figure B. The Northern Astronomical Vesica

celestial design of the heavens

This view powerfully depicts how the Temple and Tabernacle symbolized God’s celestial design of the heavens, seen in their two altars, mirroring the 2 poles of the ecliptic and the Celestial Equator. This agrees with many principles seen in the pattern of God’s Intelligent Design in His Creation. Since the “pattern of the Tabernacle” contains the phi ratio also known as the “divine proportion” or golden section we can see definitive Biblical evidence that this universally recognized standard of measure is truly divine in origin, since the dimensions of these sacred architectural structures were given by revelation from God to Moses and King David.

A goal of Biblical Archaeo-Astronomy is to adopt a fresh view of archaeology of Biblical artifacts like the Hebrew Temple and Tabernacle, viewed through the lens of principles of Biblical Astronomy. This allows us to catch new glimpses of glories long hidden from the astrologers and empiricists, whose practices for too long have clouded the inherent grandeur of the Creator’s sacred architecture. By liberating the divine blueprint of the Temple and Tabernacle from a profane orientation that has served to distort its original pattern, perhaps a new light can be shed upon the true Godly design and purposes hidden in the divine blueprints and architecture. By allowing God’s Word to speak for itself in this key  area, we can introduce a fresh perspective to the field of Archaeo-Astronomy, emphasizing the liberating power of adopting a genuine Biblical perspective in this meaningful area of research. We should keep in mind here that this double-square, (1x 2 rectangle) ground-plan configuration of the Tabernacle’s court containing the phi ratio, we find not only in the dimensions of the Ark of the Covenant [Ex. 25:10], but also in the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid. The dynamic celestial equator, the second circle secular in nature, ties to both the civil calendar year and earthly Equator as it is mirrored above into the heavens. The movement of this equatorial pole around the static pole of the ecliptic is what is known as the precession of the poles. The intersection points of the ecliptic and the Celestial Equator known as equinoctial points, which we call the Spring and Fall equinox, days when the length of daylight is equal to the dark of night. The altar in the Holy of Holies, holding the Ark of the Covenant is mirrored in the pole of the ecliptic, around which the equatorial pole movesboth wheels, interlocked in form of a Venn Diagram, depicting God’s personal presence among His people. In the OT, God’s presence was only accessed annually as the people obeyed the tenets of the Law carried out by the High Priest, to cover for their sins. The pattern of eastern access seen above, holds true not only for Solomon’s Temple of the OT, but also remains in the later Temple in Ezekiel 43. Let’s take a detailed look at how the return of Christ integrates this theme of eastern access in the Temple and Tabernacle.

[Ezek. 43:1-5]

Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looks toward the east: [2] And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like a noise of many waters: and the earth shined with his glory. [3] And it was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city: and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell upon my face. [4] And the glory of the Lord came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east. [5] So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, beholdthe glory of the Lord filled the house.

God’s people are no longer dependent upon sacrifices of bulls & goats, by a High Priest that only enter God’s presence once a year, but have continual access to the Heavenly Father in Jesus Christ, the High Priest after Melchisedek’s order. As seen in other studies on this site, the planet Jupiter was known by the Hebrew name Sedeq, showing the link with Jupiter and Melchisedek the High Priest. The Jews saw the Messiah as the royal offspring of David “the Sedeq Branch” (Jer. 23:5 JehovahTsidkenu). Moreso, the word Sedeq is tied to Melek-(King) and combined to form Melchisedek, the Righteous King.12

Hebrews 7:11
If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron? [Heb 10:19 -20Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his fleshIf Jesus was not a man of flesh and bone as he called himself in his resurrected body, then he could not have been the perfect sacrifice required-the death of a sinless man, to redeem humanity, and we would remain unsaved!  This is completed in a final Paradise Administration referred to in Rev. 21-22. We find this in the reference to Jesus Christ as the “no more curse” in Rev. 22:3, who healed the curse that was put upon man resulting in Adam’s fall in  Gen. 3:17Rev. 22:3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: In Heb. 7:13 above, Solomon set the brazen scaffold in the midst of the court, between the altars of the holy place, and the holiest of all. The configuration of these two altars mirror the basic structure of the alignment of Earth’s polar axis, depicted in the graphic below, [Figure C.]. We can see how the geographic and magnetic poles on Earth are reflected in the North Poles of the ecliptic and the Equator, in the heavens in view of Figure C below.

As we keep the Temple of Jerusalem, the terrestrial paradigm of the North Pole in mind, the word “midst” above in II Chron. 6:13, is “tavek” [H8432]#14 meaning the center, or bisection, so called from its being divided.16 As a terrestrial reflection of the celestial structure of the firmament, a key aspect of the Temple plan is revealed as we consider some other places in God’s Word where this Hebrew word “tavek” occurs. The first use of tavek is in Gen. 1:6 referring to the order of the firmamentdividing the midst of internal great deep waters from out-side waters of the firmament, of the heavens. This depicts the firmament as a vast cosmic bubble, containing all the celestial bodies in the created Universe, bordered by an immense reservoir. This terrestrial paradigm is not limited to a figure of speech like the Temple or Tabernacle of Israel, but by the use oftavek” in this context of God’s ordering of all Creation, it naturally includes the entirety of planet Earth.

Genesis 1 tells us that the waters inside the firmament are linked to Earth, whose continents are bisected at their geographical center by the Great Pyramid on the Giza Plateau. This memorial type of altar bisected the Delta of Egypt, [tavek] as this part of the Nile, was anciently called “the sea.” We find the details of this with the usage of “tavek” in Isa. 19;18-20. This is handled in detail, in the section of our web-site on the Biblical Astronomy of the Great Pyramid. The material we have been studying shows us direct Biblical links, and a celestial reflection of the two altars of the Temple and Tabernacle, as illustrations of the bipolar structure of the Earth, mirroring the galactic poles of the two great celestial circles the ecliptic and the Equator in northern skies. The symbolism of the circle is heavenly, while the symbolism of the square is Earthly. When we overlay the celestial double circle of the galactic North Pole over the terrestrial double square of the Tabernacle’s groundplan, the 1 x 2 rectangle formed in the midst of the Tabernacle’s court, conforms to the common area of the North polar Vesica, between these overlapping celestial circles. This depicts the Creator’s original plan of His Creation reflected on both the macro and micro levels of heaven and earth, as seen in the Temple blueprints, and “pattern of the Tabernacle,” [Heb. 8:5, Exod. 25:9, 40] Only a true Creator could give the details of this Intelligently Designed Plan with such accuracy. Only the Almighty God is able to account for the work of His Hands with precision in such a sweeping vista, encompassing everything from the vast to the smallest scale. All of this is preserved in the fullness of its inherent glory in God’s Holy Word, so that it is undeniable even for fools, because even the fool knows this cannot originate by Chance, but only in the deliberate Intelligent Design and foreknowledge of the Almighty Creator-God.

On the micro level, this structure is intended to symbolize God’s chosen dwelling place in the hearts and minds of the Church in Christ, with man as the reason for Creation, and the container and reflector of the Creator’s gift of holy spirit. In this sense Christ is the ideal man and an emblem of all Creation. All the symbols, like “Vitruvian man,” are based on this original ideal which has been corrupted in the idols of the ages. We as believers will either align our thinking with the poles of the flesh or spirit by the freedom of our will, determining our fellowship with the Heavenly Father through His only mediator, the promised seed-Jesus Christ, the Chief Cornerstone who crowns his Temple, the Church, that unites both Jews and Gentiles.

As King Solomon, son of David, told his prayer to God from the central scaffold between the altars, he practically unified the secular (dynamic) office of the King, with a sacred (static) office of the Priest, from a location taking in  both spheres of activity for the nation of Israel. This is pictured astronomically as the dynamic equatorial pole slowly encircles the static pole of the ecliptic, with the common area between these overlapping polar wheels seen as a vesica or Venn Diagram. This adds to our insight of the precession of the poles, as the equatorial pole shifted from Thuban of Draco to Polaris of Ursa Minor. This fulfills the promise of the coming redeemer as the current pole starPolaris resides under-foot of the Crowned KingCepheus [Eph. 1:20-22]. This celestial image of the King of kings is thus fulfilled in Christ Jesus.

As II Chronicles 6:16 tells us; There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit upon the throne of Israel; yet so that thy children take heed to their way to walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me. It is Jesus Christ as the High Priest after the order of Melchisedek, who ultimately fills this position as both king and priest, signifying Christ the fish, giving the true meaning for the vesica as a fish shaped icthus, that is also a Greek word for “fish.” This sign or cipher of the fish was popular in the early days of Christianity, notably with its Piscean links, and has come into vogue again, towards the end of the age. These truths first put  forth in the astronomical context of the fish shaped icthus, at the North Pole, were divorced from these former affiliations as their use was degraded in occult astrological practices. We need only return to the first truths of the Celestial Gospel to recover some hidden secrets of the ages, that only God’s Word can reveal. By forsaking the pagan astrological idols, the wisdom and Symmetry  contained in the Creator’s Order will be revealed as never before. The starry host provides the faithful heavenly witness of these everlasting spiritual truths, as witnessed in the Hourglass Nebula below. God, the Author of life has truly made new life available to all who believe through His Son, the agent of our new and everlasting life. Because the Phi ratio is pervasive in the kingdoms of life, it represents more than just a geometric pattern ruling life. The Ethic built into the Phi ratio not only lays down a geometric pattern of life, but it also lays a pattern that life follows, ever reaching a closer fellowship with the Creator, as Life Source and its First Cause. Thus it not only assumes the existence of the Almighty as the origin and Initiator, Who laid down these patterns, but it cries out to lay hold on our union with its Source. As the Nautilus living in its perfect shell based on the numbers of an algorithmic spiral provide the ideal environs for the Nautilus at each stage of growth in its life, so humanity is pressed to find the Source behind the architecture of the perfect linear geometric expansion of the chambers not only in the Nautilus Shell, but also of the ideal spiritual environs of the Temple and Tabernacle of Israel, and the great statements of the book of Acts.

The Soul and Sacred Geometry — The Spiritual Meaning of Two Circles, The Vesica Piscis | by NJ Solomon | Medium

Obviously the incidence of Pi and Phi in this sacred history of art and architecture is pervasive, and it demands our attention. If it entailed only a few casual incidents of phi, it could be written off to coincidence, but as we can see this is clearly not the case, as Johannes Kepler shows us in his Harmony of the Spheres, also seen in the Solar System structure of the musical scale.

Figure F. Harmony of the Spheres

Geometry in space / Sacred Geometry <3:

We also find relationships of the Fibonacci Series and the phi ratio in the mean sidereal and mean synodic planetary cycles, with their revolutionary periods of and mean orbital speeds, to include inverse velocity relationships, all based on the ubiquitous phi ratio. Again these multiple phi relationships on their own, might not be enough evidence to convince us of the Creator’s Intelligent Design, but once we see that all these individual planetary relationships fit together themselves in a phi spiral, or logarithmic spiral operating as an exponential constant, organizing the entire order of our solar system, God’s Symmetry is much more difficult to deny. This is especially the case when we find the beauty of this celestial phi symphony of our solar system is only a smaller version of the same phi spiral highlighting the rotational Symmetry of our spiral Galaxy in the Milky Way, seen too in spiral galaxies all through the Universe. Please go to the following link, that details these truths in greater detail than I have space for here. (www.spirasolaris.ca), 17#

Figure 4. The Golden Ratio Rectangle

Here is a simple way to draw and understand a rectangle using the Golden Ratio:  Draw a square (of size “1”) Place a dot half way along one side, Draw a line from that point to an opposite corner (it will be √5/2 in length). Turn that line so that it runs along the square’s side. Then you can extend the square to be a rectangle with the Golden Ratio. This rectangle above shows us a simple formula for the Golden Ratio. When one side is 1, the other side is:

The square root of 5 is approximately 2.236068, so the Golden Ratio is approximately (1+2.236068)/2 = 3.236068/2 = 1.618034. This is an easy way to calculate phi and related geometry we find in our next example, as a key in our study of Biblical Astronomy principles, evident in other topics on our website, like The Calendar of the Biblical Patriarchs. This study points out among many other things, that the cycles of the Sun and Moon are linked via the phi ratio of [1.618] in the 50-year Jubilee cycle, since there are 618 full moons every 50 solar years. This not only exhibits another phi ratio relation in our solar system, but also ties the divine knowledge to the Hebrew calendar as commanded in Levit. 25. Thus, God has designed the phi ratio into the structure of our solar system, even as He has all the other phi/ Fibonacci/ Lucas relations, in all Creation. So, God has designed the phi ratio in our solar system, even as He has all other phi/  Fibonacci/ Lucas relations, throughout the Natural World, depicting His the  symmetry of His Intelligent Design across multi-levels of His Creation. The preponderance of the phi ratio through the Four Kingdoms of Life, is an awesome testimony to the Creator’s Temporal Order. This phi ratio, is arrived at by a scale invariant comparison. The relationship that becomes evident in this comparison is divine, because it is found throughout all levels of the Natural World, from the micro to the macro. In this contrast of the divine proportion, the whole is to the larger as the larger is to the smaller. We find this divine ratio as seen in Plate 1 above in the Phi ratio’s linear expression divided into the square root of 5/2 and 1/2. As we observe the Phi ratio in the Temple and Tabernacle, we also find the examples of the two altars within the courts of the Temple/ Tabernacle pattern depicting a heavenly image of eastern access into God’s presence, via the High Priest’s annual ministry behind the veil, in the holiest of all. The pattern of access from the east mentioned above, holds true not only for Solomon’s Temple of the Old Testament, but also remained for the later Temple referred to in Ezekiel 43:1-5.

The two celestial poles of the ecliptic / Equator are mirrored terrestrially in the physical counterparts of their altars, in both the holy of holies and the holy place. As Pinnock states, regarding the brazen altar of burnt offering:” An added version of this altar is represented below as one of the two poles at the center of two squares -each upon its own center of polarity….”18#

Image result for phi ratio temple/tabernacle of israel

We find Scriptural evidence of this is in Jeremiah 31.

Jeremiah 31:35
Thus saith the Lord, Which giveth the Sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the Moon and of the stars for a light by night, Which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; the Lord of Hosts is His name: The Hebrew word for “ordinance” here, is also used in Job 38:33, in reference to the “ordinances of Heaven” in an astronomical context [Job 38:31-32]. This Hebrew word for “ordinance” is also used referring to Natural Law as seen in Job 28:26, in the context of the Laws of Nature, as prescribed by God concerning for example the “rain, lightning and thunder.”

Since God revealed the dimensions of these sacred enclosures to Moses and King David by divine revelation, we have undeniable proof that the principles of the golden section and phi ratio are utilized as an aspect of the Creator’s Omniscient wisdom and Intelligent Design throughout all levels of Creation [Prov. 3:19]. The Divine power and energy of the Omnipotent Creator resonates in, and through every level of the Works of His Hand, and as we give Him His due credit for His awesome Works, we can join the harmonious chorus of Nature that sings His praises. This illustrates the dynamic growth pattern found in the largest spiral Galaxy, to the smallest of human embryos. Below we find added examples of the geometry of the Golden Ratio Rectangle applied to Sun-Earth-Venus orbits.

Ö Period of Venus * Phi = Distance of the Earth
Ö 2.5490 * 1.6180339 = 1.5966 * 1.6180339 = 2.5833

In addition, Venus orbits the Sun in 224.695 days while Earth orbits the Sun in 365.242 days, conforming to an 8/13 ratio that are successive Fibonacci numbers. Thus 5 conjunctions of Earth and Venus occur every 8 orbits of the Earth around the Sun and every 13 orbits of Venus. 

Along with the planets of our solar system, the starry host shimmers with faithful heavenly witness of these Celestial truths, as seen in the Hourglass Nebula below. This aptly named Nebula counts the sands of time running out on the serpent’s dominion. This fascinating Nebula closely resembles the vesica pattern, with the heart of the Nebula itself inside the fish’s vessel. Intriguingly, this symbol also favors the number 8, having the spiritual significance of a new beginning, while resembling the division of a cell and the birth of new life. God, the Author of life has truly marked this new life with an explosion of light, both at their physical and spiritual conception to all born male and female, and who believe in His Son, the agent of our new and everlasting life.

Figure 5. The Hourglass Nebula

celestial indicator

The Hourglass Nebula appears as another celestial indicator of the importance of the symbolic vessel of the fish,” representing the Age of Pisces as a foretold  precessional age that would reveal the long awaited and prophesied promised seed, and the final victory over the serpent. We have seen the critical nature of the advent of this age is in the chronology of the ages of the precession of the equinoxes. The details of how the opening of this Piscean Age was marked during the Celestial Prelude, and on my website. This accounts for most of the  “Piscean symbolism” in the Christian mysteries. Many of these “mysteries” were based on an emphasis of the purely geometric aspects of this knowledge, but as we view the signs of the Birth of Christ in 7 and 3 BC in their true celestial roots, we can avoid the labyrinth of mythic and occult admixtures, that corrupt their true meaning. We should note how the pagan cultures of Babylon and ancient Egypt took elements of this “mighty system” of Patriarchal Astronomy in to idolatrous applications of their individual star religions. Yet we still discern the original pattern of truth hidden under these idolatrous facades of ancient astrology.

The Chaldeans and Egyptians, as the Pythagoreans after them, present a clear case where this cloaking of the original truths in the celestial gospel resulted in its corruption. To remove the insidious influence of Astrology, we must recognize the original celestial symbols before they were corrupted and return to the solid ground of their Scriptural underpinnings upon which these truths can be re-set in their original purity. The association of the earthly twelve tribes of Israel with the twelve signs of the zodiac, give us a view wherein we see a way in which the “ordinances of heavens have their dominion in the earth,” [Job 38:33]. This is a primary goal of Biblical Archaeo-Astronomy utilizing the tools of the God-Breathed Word in concert with the witness of the stars.

 It great to have wonderful believers like yourselves to stand and share with, and I very much appreciate the notes and feedback that you send. As always you are welcome to respond via the Biblical Astronomy Fellowship forum.

 

God Bless!

The Celestial Gospel.

Welcome to our April 2024 Blog! This month we are featuring the class Syllabus notes for the first two segments of the Celestial Gospel Seminar that was run by Rev. Jon Nessle and myself in Mahwah New Jersey. What a great Day in the Word we enjoyed with all the Northeast believers, this month graciously hosted by PK Krywos of the Christian Family Fellowship of New Jersey Believers. The class Syllabus notes for Segment 3-the concluding session are found in the June 21′ blog. The entire class will be available online shortly for your edification and enjoyment!

 Old Covenant Foundations of the Celestial Gospel

There is an existing debate over the validity of a Celestial Gospel over the years, the term referring to what E.W. Bullinger called the “Witness of the Stars” in his popular book on the subject, published in 1893. A Bullinger contemporary  was Dr. Joseph Seiss, who published “The Gospel in the Stars,” a decade earlier in 1882. These two resources provided a foundation for study in this important area of research, as they built on earlier work of Frances Rolleston who published her work in the book; The Mazzaroth, or the Constellations in 1865. E.W. Bullinger credits Rolleston for her research as the first to generate interest in this key but, misunderstood topic.

Although FRolleston was the first among more modern writers to advocate the Celestial Gospel, that does not mean that there are no ancient texts that support or attest to the Gospel in the Stars. For the most part, we need only consult the Biblical Text for all the needed proof, since God always protects
the integrity of His Word, whether Spoken, Written in the Stars, or written in
Scripture. A goal of this research is to provide a solid Biblical and spiritual foundation for The Gospel in the Stars, which as a specific topic of study has remained a bit cloudy and illdefined in certain categories up to now. Since the cornerstone of the Celestial Gospel foundations are found in holy Scripture, they provide the spiritual principles upon which the Star Gospel is based, but they are
by no means the only historical evidence supporting these foundations. There is a rich astro-archaeological history of ancient cultures like Egypt, India, Persia, not to mention ancient Israel naming a few, whose testimonies added their voices to support of the meanings and concepts of the star names of the Celestial Gospel.

Although the monumental works of Rolleston, Bullinger, Seiss and others did provide a basis to understand the idea of the Celestial Gospel, their works did not fully disclose the OT Covenant foundations of the Celestial Gospel in God’s Word. Thus, lacking the full Biblical basis for the Celestial Gospel, it is critics like Faulkner, who have attempted to exploit this blindspot to discredit the idea of The Celestial Gospel, that demands a response to shine a positive spotlight on this key topic. This is a focus of our current study. In context of Jon Nessle’s OT History Class, an overarching framework of God’s OT Covenants initiated by God to Man were establishedstarting with Adam and Seth, and  included NoahAbraham, MosesDavid and the prophets, completed in the Promised Seed-Jesus Christ. This was generally accomplished in previous teachings in our seminar on the Celestial Gospel of the OT History Class. Today we will expand on the basis of these teachingsproviding added key details to the truths we first presented two years ago.  

In a recent critique of the writings of Frances Rolleston and the idea of the “Gospel in the Stars,” that she popularized c. mid-1800’s, [Dr. Faulkner-2013] states;

Not only are there no texts preserving the original knowledge of the gospel in the stars, but we know of no sources before Rolleston that claimed that there ever were such texts, or that any ever lived who believed such things. The first source we know of to make this claim is Frances Rolleston’s book. Let me be clear—it is obvious from Rolleston’s book that she had no texts that clearly taught her thesis. Instead, she created the meanings to support her thesis without reliance upon any older texts. The evidence we have that is most consistent with the Gospel in the stars thesis not being an ancient idea at all, but entirely the invention of Frances Rolleston less than 200 years ago.”#1

To begin our response to Dr. Faulkner’s assertion that the idea of “the Gospel in the Stars thesis not being an ancient idea at all,” we will open with evidence to first counter Faulkner related to the Great Sphinx

Figure 1. The Great Sphinx

ancient egypt

In the ancient Egyptian language, one later derivation of the word “Sphinx” is found in the Egyptianshesep ankh,” meaning a living image. However, instead of the living idol images of idol gods or pharaohs, a proposal of this study is that the Great Sphinx was originally intended as an oracle of the Promised Seed and the Messiah. Both Lockyer and Rolleston state, that a function of the Great Sphinx symbolized the summer Solstice 4000 years before Christ, sealed by the union of the constellations Virgo and Leo. The name “Sphinx” in the ancient dialects means “the pouring out” as in [Deut. 33:19] relating to the creation of the world, the inundation and the summer solstice, where the Nile begins to rise. Deut. 33:19 translates the inundation of the Nile as ‘abundance’ in the blessing of Zebulon who bore Virgo upon his standard.”#2  There exists a tradition that the Creation took place at the summer solsticeThis view of the figure of the Great Sphinx was seen as the junction of the signs Virgo and Leo, marked by the star Denebolaa star name meaning “the Lord comes quickly.” 3#

The Riddle of the Sphinx attests to the Sun’s solar circuit on the ecliptic [Ps. 19:1] that marks the starting point of where to begin reading the first chapter of the wondrous heavenly scroll of the Celestial Gospel. Another meaning of the word “Sphinx” is to “bind closely together” and this design of the junction of the signs of the Virgo and Leo constellations, shows the two ends of the Mazzaroth to be joined in a renown mythical union of the greatest and oldest Sculpture on our Planet. The union of the head of the woman-Virgo with the body of Leo the Lion, the Great Sphinx is a constant reminder from ancient Egypt, to begin our deciphering of the circular witness of The Celestial Gospel in Virgo that concludes in Leo. This ancient and great monument thus not only preserves the canon of God’s Word engraved in the heavens but also this fusion of alpha/omega signs in Scripture are inseparably linked for all time, written in the stars. As Enoch Prophesied of the Promised Seed [Jude 1:14] before this witness was ever committed to holy Writ of Scripture, [Ps. 19:1-4], so his witness is a doctrinal pillar to support the Celestial Gospel. This heavenly witness has been continuously rehearsing the truths of the Creator’s handiwork to all ancient cultures of the created earth, as God established a tabernacle for the Sun in the 12 constellations and signs of the Mazzaroth, on the Zodiacal Band and the ecliptic, [Rev. 12:1-2].

Rolleston
notes that this junction of Virgo and Leo, marked by the star Denebola, a name meaning “the Lord or Judge who comes quickly,” thus embodies the living image, of the Lord Jesus Christ coming in judgment. As the star marking the link between Virgo and Leo, the prophetic message of the alpha and omega signs of the Biblical zodiac, the celestial image of the coming Messiah has endured in the largest, oldest and most renown sculpture on the planet-The Great Sphinx.

The Mystery of the Sphinx and the Celestial Gospel

Scriptural references and ancient sources demonstrate that God called the constellations by their names, opening with Virgo and ending with Leo, and their order is divinely orchestrated, forming the ancient basis of the Gospel in the Stars. The Almighty has ensured the preservation of His Gospel in the Stars not only in the 100+ individual ancient Hebrew star names, many preserved in Hebrew Scriptures, but also with 425+ star names from all ancient languages, including ancient Egypt that documents the themes taught by each of the 12 constellations, supported by their decans.

Ps. 147:4-5 He telleth [H] the number of the stars; He calleth [H] them all by their namesGreat is our Lord, and of great power: His understanding is infinite. [See also Isa. 40:22-26]

The Scriptures are God’s Revealed Word and absolute standard for truth, and the oldest book in Scriptural canon is the Book of Job, that contains more ancient direct astronomical references to star names than any other. Some of the same words that God uses as star names also occur in other Scriptural contexts, from which we can glean added depth to the truth evident in both Gospels written in the stars and Scripture. The truth that God Himself numbered and named the Stars, shows the weight and emphasis He puts on His Celestial Gospel, [Isa. 55: 8-13]. God did not leave the integrity of the truth of His Word in the hands of men, for any aspect of His Wordendorsing the integrity of both Scripture and the Gospel in the Stars under the exclusive authority of God Almighty alone. We find this depicted as the Almighty questions Jobregarding Who has control over the Heavens.

Job 38:31-33 31 Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion32 Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons?33 Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? Canst thou set the dominion thereof in the earth?

It is the witness of Scripture alone that supports the validity of the Celestial Gospel, to stand or fall on the merit of these Godly Covenants, as the word of the Almighty requires no assistance from secular sources, the ordinances of heaven. But this does not mean there is a lack of secular evidence in support of the Celestial Gospel, including archaeological history from ancient Egypt that appears on this link, to my blog in April, 2020. This study is part of a series of rebuttals against Dr. Faulkner’s critique of Frances Rolleston’s writings on The Mazzaroth, along with the works of Dr. Bullinger and DrSeiss.

To understand the roots of the Celestial Gospel, we must first comprehend God’s Creation of the Heavens and Earth, and His Covenant’s with Man, beginning in Genesis. The StarsSun and Moon were not created till the 4th day of Creation Week. These lights in the firmament were organized, to divide the day from the night, and for signs, seasonsdays and years, as the Sun, Moon and Stars move in their preordained courses on the eclipticset in synchronized motion by the Hand of The Almighty, in the beginning. [Gen. 1:14-19, Ps. 19, Isa. 40:22-26]

Faulkner admits that; “Gen. 1:14 records that one of the purposes of the heavenly bodies is for man to mark the passage of time (seasons, days, and years), which has always been a function of astronomy. As the first man, Adam was in place to establish astronomy, in its calendrical function, thus Faulkner has no quarrel with this aspect of the stellar witness of the heavens, that has been a given in the scientific community going back to many ancient cultures like Egypt and Greece, also agreed by Josephus.” #4

As we proceed in this study, we will see how Adam’s position as the first man in establishing astronomy and timekeeping based on astronomical calendars, is a key aspect of the narrative providing a foundation for the Celestial Gospel, established with Noah’s Covenant, that cannot be ignored. We will also see that the Celestial Gospel includes key topics in astronomy both vital and central to the History of Astronomyforming basis at the origins of Astronomy as an aspect of Scientific inquiry. An example of this is the conception of the 12 constellations on the ecliptic as a unit. Another related concept is that of The Zodiacal Band, found documented below. Both of these concepts are included in the Celestial monument of the Great Sphinx, as seen in the oldest book of Biblical Canon, the book of Job;

Job 19:23-25

23 Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book!
24 That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock forever! 25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:

These verses were not only indicative of Job’s knowledge of his coming redeemer, but also of his faith that this redeemer would stand at a future latter day upon the earth. This knowledge directly corresponds both, with a witness that was engraved in the rock forever, remaining unto our day, and in agreement with the witnesses of the celestial and written gospels. The word “For,” beginning verse 25, grammatically depicts the purpose of his words along with a monumental witness in stone, whose longevity still stands in our day, as a witness to the redeemer that Job foresaw so long ago. Thus, Job’s reference in this majestic declaration of his redeemer, graven in rock forever, is readily linked with this enduring memorial on the Giza plateau, analogous with the prophecy written in the stars, as a unit between Leo and Virgo, in the Celestial Gospel, memorialized in the Great Sphinx.

In the only book of the Bible, exclusively addressed to the Patriarchal AgeJob’s stone-cut words ring out from the earth’s most massive and ancient hand carved sculpture, as a witness of the stars, testifying to observe, what God provided not only to Biblical Patriarchs in the Bible’s first book written by Job, but in
unique concert with the Celestial Gospel that predated the written Scriptures, engraved in the heavens as a precursor of the first book of God’s sacred text, in Genesis 15. Here God records His Covenant with Abraham, telling him to look to the stars, to see if he could number them, adding “so shall thy seed be.” The very idea that God recorded His Covenant with Abraham in the stars of the Celestial Tapestries, linked the perpetual nature of His Covenant with the 12 tribes of Israel to the fixed stars, in steadfast permanence, that furnished evidence in the 12 constellations of the Heavens; as a multi-media affirmation of His truth, the enduring witness and everlasting Word of the Almighty Creator.

As we have seen in previous blogs the origin and purpose of the Great Sphinx is rooted in astronomy. The stellar function of the Great Sphinx is augmented by the role of the Sphinx as a sighting device, tying directly to its astronomical functions, in this case to observe and record the horizon points of the sunrise, as documented by Moses Cotsworth.#5 This aspect of the Sphinx shines new light on its astronomical origins related to the Dendera Zodiac, from it’s Temple in EsnehEgypt. From the hieroglyphs on this ancient Egyptian Zodiac we find a representation of the basic celestial elements of the Great Sphinx broken down in Figure 2 below.

Figure 2. Inset graphic of Virgo and Leo originating the basis for the Great Sphinx in its original Celestial Context.#6

relief from the Temple of Esneh

The inset graphic on the Dendera Zodiac above is from Egypt’s Esneh Temple, where an image of a Sphinx was put between the signs for Leo (on the lower left) and Virgo (on the right, holding a branch). The word sphinx means “to bind closely together” (from Greek-Sphiggo), depicting the point where the Mazzaroth/ 12 constellations begin and end. And, like the female head of the Sphinx, the constellations begin with Virgo, and end in the Sphinx’s lion tail, with Leo. This reveals an astronomical purpose of the alpha-omega signs on the ecliptic, denoting the inception point of where to begin reading the witness of the stars as they relate the circular message of the coming King and redeemer-Jesus Christ, on the ecliptic. This divine order of the Mazzaroth, is preserved in the Sphinx, as an exhibit in a Megalithic Museum of archaeo-astronomy structures on the Giza Plateau-with the Pyramids, and the Great Sphinx unlocking age-old mysteries of the zodiac, consistent with the themes of the Gospel in the Stars, taught by men of God like Enoch, and Seth; as great examples of Patriarchs of the Bible, before the tenets of Scripture were fully committed to writing. This notion is supported by ancient traditions in Egyptian and Bible History, where Enoch held a key place as the embodiment of Thoth-the god of wisdom, and as the divine scriberecorded the King’s deeds in his reign. The semblance between Enoch and Thoth/Hermes, is evident as both were revered pertaining to the invention of writing and sacred booksWith shared celestial rootsHermes ostensibly recorded 36,525 books and lived 365.25 years, so Enoch also lived 365 years, [Gen. 5:23] to match the number of days in a solar, and Egyptian Sothic year. This stands out in the genealogy of Bible Patriarchs as an anomaly, as all of Enoch’s relatives- in a line of Bible Patriarchs had life spans exceeding 895 years-except Lamech who lived 777 years; in excess of twice Enoch’s lifespan. In later Judeo-Christian lore, from Josephus, offspring of Seth including Enoch, was credited with planning and building two pillars, one of stone linking to the Great Pyramid of Giza, and the other, likely the Great Sphinx, were both encoded with prophetic wisdom in the Siriadic land,” referring to Egypt, the land of Sirius, before the flood. [see the “pillar” of Isa. 19:19]#7

In reference to a key astronomical function of the Great Sphinx, in its Pre-dynastic stellar role as a sighting device, one astronomical aim was to watch and record the horizon points of the sunrise, seen not only in the Great Sphinxorientation facing due east, but also to mark the tropics of Capricorn & Cancer. 

The Great Sphinx

The Sphinx’s solar alignments related to earth’s tropical borders, depicted ancient knowledge of the Zodiacal bandwithin which the heavenly bodies and stars named by God the Creator [Ps. 147:4, Gen. 37:9-11, Isa. 40:26, Job 9:7], shed their 3-fold light upon the Earth. God set the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, as celestial boundaries wherein the Sun, Moon and Planets all moveabove and below the celestial Equator. God created all the stars and numbered these celestial bodies, but He did not name them all without exception. Thus, the stars within the Zodiacal Band-God marked to carry His message in The Celestial Gospel, and His eternal plan to redeem mankind. There have been few to realize the key role of the Great Sphinx as the Alpha/Omega signs in the the circle of the Celestial Gospelbut I have not seen it referenced as an early symbol of the Zodiacal Band anywhere else. We find added biblical evidence of this in Joseph’s 2nd dream, [Gen. 37:9-11], in its astronomical context.

Gen. 37:9-11 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me10 And he told it to his father, and to his brethren: and his father rebuked him, and said unto himWhat is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth? 11 And his brethren envied himbut his father observed the saying.

The Zodiacal Band of 12 primary Constellations and their stars.

In Joseph’s second dream, we find evidence not only of the knowledge of the Zodiacal band with the Biblical Patriarchssince Joseph’s 11 brothers appear as 11 stars, with Joseph as the 12th constellation, summarizing the primary signs found along the paths of the Sun and Moon, embodied in Joseph’s parents. We also see evidence of the ancient knowledge of the Precession of the Equinoxes, wrapped up in the idea that “the eleven stars made obeisance to me.” This idea that the other 11 Constellations of the eclipticbowed down, prostrated them-selves to Joseph’s sign/star, exhibits a figurative idea of precessionexpanded upon in the link above. This ancient knowledge of the zodiacal band with the Bible Patriarchs, is added astronomical proof, and key aspect of the Celestial Gospel in concert with Scripture, astronomy and the Great Sphinxthe head of the woman-Virgo unified with the body of the Lion-Leo, as a stellar prophecy of the promised seed in the birth of Christ.

We also find the perfection of divine order in the number 10 related to the genealogy of Biblical Patriarchs, and the legacy of God’s Covenants with man, where not only Noah was counted as the 10th generation from Adam, [Gen. 5:1-32], but also in Abraham as the 10th generation from Shem, son of Noah [Gen. 11:10-26]. Thus all Earth’s inhabitants, were saved in Noah’s seed, as the focus of God’s singular purpose to redeem and save sinful man from every tribe, tongue, nation, and race, through the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, [Gen. 3: 15]. This reveals God’s purpose, as developed in a further series of Covenants building from Noah to Abraham and his seed, providing both a temporal and spiritual context of how God Almighty not only repaired these Ages or spiritual dispensations, but also progressively revealed His eternal purposes in Christ.

Contrary to Faulkner, Dispensationalism presents a framework to interpret Scripture as it lays out successive periods of redemptive history where God progressively revealed more and more about His plan of redemptionThis corresponds to [Heb. 11:3] “the worlds [aion-ages and time periods] or each of the ages [dispensations] were framed by the word of God… This also exposes Faulkner’s falsehood that God would reveal His entire redemption plan to the first Adam.

As we build the case for The Celestial Gospel in Scripture, an added key aspect of this narrative involves the astronomical subject matter of the ancient prophets in harmony with the application of their star prophecies. In the oracle of Balaam in [Num. 24:8] below as he beholds the glory of Israel’s wilderness encampment, and he identifies three of the four tribes at the cardinal points of the compass; Aquarius in verse 7, emptying his water buckets into the Southern fishPisces Australis, with Taurus the wild Ox in verse 8, and Leo the Lion in Num. 24:9. Num. 24:8 documents how God brings the 12 tribes coming from Joseph and his 11 brothers out of Egypt, in summary by referencing three of the “corner-stone tribes” of Israel that embodied the constellations of Aquarius, Leo and Taurus. These royal constellations of Israel provide us the anchor points of the 4 key tribes at the foundational sides of Israel’s wilderness camp, later carried over to the structure of the city plan of Jerusalem itself.

iii. Balaam’s Prophecy. This imagery from the prophecy of Balaam spoke of the destiny of Israel. He mentions that Israel shall pour water out of his buckets” (Reuben/Water Bearer), “he lay down as a lion” (Judah/ Lion) and he has “the strength of a unicorn” (Joseph/Bull), and shall “break their bones” as does either an eagle or constrictor serpent (Dan; Num. 24:7-9). This attests to the fact that the Northern tribe of Dan was omitted from this list of the 12 tribes because they introduced the forbidden practice of idolatry to Israel, and were replaced by the Eagle/Aquila. The idea that again all four figures correspond to the cornerstone symbolism indicates that this prophecy refers to constellations linked to these 12 tribes. For instanceancient stellar history shows the signs of Taurus (the bull) and Orion, in cave art of Lascaux, in France, dating back to 3000-2900 B.C.

cave art

For those who do not think there is any reference to the stars in the picture of the bull above, please note the series of dots above his back. These are the Pleiades. The dots under the eye of the bull are the Hyades, and the four dots to the left of the bull’s nose are the stars in Orion’s belt. There is really no avoiding this identification. #8

The book of Job is the earliest completed book of the Old Testament, written circa 2900 B.C. In Job 38:31-32, the Pleiades and Orion are both mentioned by name, and linked closely with Taurus.

Num. 24:2-9 [ESV]

 And Balaam lifted up his eyes and saw Israel camping tribe by tribe. And the Spirit of God came upon him, and he took up his discourse and said, “The oracle of Balaam the son of Beorthe oracle of the man whose eye is opened,[athe oracle of him who hears the words of God, who sees the vision of the Almighty, falling down with his eyes uncovered: How lovely are your tents, O Jacob, your encampments, O IsraelLike palm groves[b] that stretch afarlike gardens beside a riverlike aloes that the Lord has plantedlike cedar trees beside the watersWater shall flow from his bucketsand his seed shall be in many watershis king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted.

 God brings him out of Egypt and is for him like the horns of the wild oxhe shall eat up the nations, his adversariesand shall break their bone  in pieces and pierce them through with his arrowsHe crouched, he lay down like a lion and like a lioness; who will rouse him up? Blessed are those who bless youand cursed are those who curse you.”

The cycles of the Sun and Moon bowing down to Taurus from Joseph’s dream [Gen. 37:9-11], tells us that the precessional Age of Taurus is indicated, which is consistent with the cardinal constellations pointed out in Numbers 23-24, that detail the precessional markers or cardinal points for this age. This precessional knowledge filtered through ancient Egypt and was applied along with the Sothic Calendar, during the Age of Taurus, documented by many archaeo-astronomers. #9 Even as Abraham is recorded in history among the first teachers of the ancient Egyptians, there were others like Enoch and Shem before him. As Jacob’s grand-father, Abraham also schooled Jacob in the tenets of the Patriarchal Academy of Astronomy.

This exerted a powerful influence on the Astronomy of the ancient Near East. We find this knowledge applied in the stellar alignments of numerous ancient Egyptian temples oriented to zodiacal signs signifying their related precessional age, as pointed out by Dr. Herbert Lockyer, providing added evidence that the Biblical Patriarchs not only knew of the precessional cycle, but also applied it in a spiritual context, as we find here in Numbers 24, with their wilderness encampment around Israel’s Tabernacle. In Exodus 25, God’s Word reveals a standard of the Pattern [H8403] of the Tabernacle [H4908; Ex. 26, 38:21, Ex39, 40:1-33, Ps. 46:5, 84:1-2, 132:5-7]#10 that God showed Moses, as a blueprint to build God’s tent, or Sanctuary [H4720-Exo25:8 below], according to how God dwelt among His people, as a point of contact for Israel, as He led them into and through the wilderness.

Ex. 25:8-10
And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them. According to all that I shew thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it. 10 And they shall make an ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.

Dr. Ernest Martin’s conclusion, from scrutinizing this Biblical data, that “there was a common Divine pattern regarding the structure of the universe seen in the Garden of Eden, the Hebrew Camp in the wilderness, and the Temple built by King Solomon. One way to see this common pattern between the earthly and  heavenly structures is in a comparison between the three general compartments within the Temple, and the three heavens noted in Scripture, as the three main sections of the Temple were designed to show these three heavens. The first section was open to the sky and to all weather phenomena, where birds could also fly within it. This area of the Temple answered to the “first heaven” which was like our atmosphere surrounding the earth. The “second heaven” in the Temple symbolically began at the eastern curtain in front of the Holy Place. Josephus tells us this curtain had the principal stars of the heavens displayed in  tapestry form. It represented the entrance into the starry heavens beyond our  atmosphere. Josephus says that west of this curtain, the center of the Zodiacal Circle with its seven visible planets were displayed on the south side in the form of the Menorah, and its the seven lamps. The twelve signs of the Zodiac denoting the twelve months of the year were displayed on the north side in the twelve loaves of the Table of Shewbread. This second court of the priests represented all the starry heavens above the earth’s atmosphere. But beyond this “second heaven” there was yet a “third heaven.” This “third heaven” was the Heaven of Heavens, or in Temple terminology the Holy of Holies was equal to God’s celestial abode where His Palace and Divine precincts were located, that the Apostle Paul called “Paradise.” Each one of the twelve tribes of Israel had a zodiacal sign associated with it.Dr. Martin goes on to link an astronomical pattern in the design of the camp in the wilderness and where each of the 12 tribes of Israel were placed in relation to the Tabernacle. This pattern was later established around the environs of Jerusalem itself. Moses positioned each of the twelve tribes of Israel to represent a particular zodiacal sign in its regular stellar, or astronomical order.” #11

It is curious to me how Dr. Faulkner, liberally quotes Josephus in his writings to degrade the idea of the Gospel in the stars, yet he somehow omits this quote from Josephus that favors a recognition of the Gospel in the Stars, as found in not only certain curtains in the Tabernacle of Israel, but also in the 3 main areas of the pattern of the Tabernacle and Temple, as they resemble 3 Heavens and Earths, in their pattern. It seems that Dr. Faulkner’s choice of support research lacks an equity in presenting the views of Josephus related to the Gospel in the Stars.

ii. Four Principal Tribes of IsraelJacob (Israel) had 12 sons, and each of them is linked in God’s Word with one of the 12 constellations of the zodiac[q] Hebrew scholars have at times been uncertain of the correspondence of all twelve tribes but the four references to the royal signs are clear from Scripture. The relate to the four principal tribes: Reuben, Judah, Dan, and Joseph.

Figure 3. Aquarius and the Southern Fish. [Reuben] 

The Message in the Stars - Aquarius - Berean Insights

The Water Bearer pours out a river into the Southern Fish.

The Star Fomalhaut is located in the eye/head of the Southern Fish. This aligns with mental ability. The color that is associated with this Direction may vary: it can be bluerepresenting water. As we view the colors of the Hebrew Tabernacle, their scriptural basis provides a solid foundation of God’s Word to draw our conclusions from, avoiding speculation and private interpretation.

Each of those four tribes is linked with one of the royal constellations in the blessing given them by Jacob or Moses. Reuben was told he is unstable as water,” alluding to the Water Bearer. The name Reuben, means “Behold a son,” also ties him to the Water Bearer, among the zodiac signs, having the figure of a man. He is also mentioned as being over the “excellency of power” (Gen. 49:3-4), as Reuben aligned to the winter season in the original prophetic calendar, [Deut. 33:6]. 

The tribe of Judah was given the prime position in this Zodiacal design by being located directly east of the entrances to the Tabernacle and the later Temples.  The positions of these four prime tribes were arranged 90 degrees from each other within the 360 degree circle– to accord with the four seasons of the year, and the cardinal points of the compass. As a key aspect of the Gospel in the Stars a prophetic account centering on the Messiah and Promised Seed of Israel destined to come from the tribe of Judah, each of the 12 signs told a critical aspect of the Messiah’s deliverance of Israel, as the chief tribe Judah/Leo– was set to preside over the summer season in prophetic and the calendar matters, [Deut. 33: 7].

Figure 4. Leo The Lion of Judah. #12

Judah is a lion’s whelp” (Gen. 49:9) ties him to the Lion. Moreover, John refers to Christ as “the lion of the tribe of Judah” (Rev. 5:5), establishing the linkage of Judah to the lion. The Lion represents the King, and Judah began the royal lineage through which the Davidic line of kings came. The name Judah means “praised,” suggesting that this line of kings in the Christ-Line through him (especially Christ) would be praised.

The next pivotal tribe proceeding counterclockwise around this zodiacal design of the “Camp of Israel“… was Dan. It was positioned on the north side of the Temple and Jerusalem as a venomous animal, sometimes displayed as an eagle with a snake in its talonscalled Scorpio, a venomous scorpion today. Its station was at the autumn season in the prophetic calendar of Israel.

Dan shall be a serpent…that bites the horse heels” (Gen. 49:17), which parallels the symbolism of the Scorpius/Serpent, depicted stinging the Serpent Bearer-Ophiuchus in the heel, [Gen. 3:15] The name Dan means “judge” and the serpent symbolizes the wisdom of a judge. The serpent in Eden was acknowledged as one of the wisest of his creatures. For example, the Lord has admonished his servants to bewise as serpents and harmless as doves.” The kind of wisdom referred to especially invokes that of being a good judgeAntares, the bright star in the Scorpion’s heart, is realized as the seat of wisdom. For example, the Lord put wisdom into the heart of King Solomon so that he could judge his people wisely, (2 Chron. 1:11-12, 1 Kings 10:24; cp, Ex. 26:2, Ecc. 8:5, Job 38:36).

Figure 5. Taurus the Bull From Jamieson #13

The Constellation Taurus, the bull.

Finally, Joseph is compared to a wild ox, with Joseph’s son’s Ephraim and Manasseh compared to its two horns (Deut. 33:17). The Hebrew word refers to an extinct species of wild ox the size of an elephant having two long forward pointing horns, seen in the sign of Taurus the Bull. The bright star Aldebaran in Taurus represents its eye, the symbol of a seer (one who “sees”). Joseph wasgreat seer, so the Bull was appropriate for his sign. The name Joseph means “Jehovah has added,” probably referring to his multitude of descendants, in Ephraim and Manasseh, the horns of this sign. Ephraim was on the south side of the Temple and Jerusalem as the bullock of Taurus, positioned to align to  the spring season in the context of its prophetic and calendar implications. 
Thus, each of the four principal tribes of Israel are explicitly correlated in the blessings of Jacob, to one of the four cornerstone constellations at the cardinal points.

iv. Banners and Directions. Each of 12 tribes of Israel had a flag or banner with its sign. The Hebrew word for “sign” is translatedensign” in the KJV Bible (Num. 2:2), but Hebrew scholars make it clear that the signs also refer to zodiac constellations. According to tradition, the figure of a man was found on Reuben’s banner, a lion on Judah’s, a serpent on Dan’s, and a bull on Joseph’s (Son’ Ephraim, who took his place). These were the same images seen on the tribal flags in their wilderness camp, reflecting the four banners facing the four cardinal directions: Judah facing East, Reuben facing South, Ephraim facing West, and Dan facing North, with the Scorpion replaced by the Eagle.
(Num, 2:3,10,18,25). Below the High Priest [Christ] is seen in the center vesica, with these four cardinal constellations at the corners of this engraving.

The Four Cardinal Points

The ancient Greeks described Taurus as a snow-white bull. Aldebaran, a first magnitude star is located at the eye of the Bull, the eye-symbolic of a seer, as was Joseph of Egypt, associated with the Bull. Thus, the Bull is symbolic of spiritual strength, and especially the gift ministry of being a Prophet/Seer.

Blue is symbolic of peaceful tranquility, that goes with the wisdom of a good judge. When applied with a gift ministry it is the wisdom that is from above, which is first pure, peaceable and gentleeasy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits [Gal. 5:22] as part of the fruits of righteousnesssown in Peace of them that make peace. This is how we can emulate the Prince of Peace, to promote true and genuine peace and Justice.

Antares is located at the heart of the Scorpion. The heart is a figurative seat of wisdom, and the scorpion/serpent symbolizes wisdom. The heart/chest-the regulator/pump of the body’s life-blood can also symbolize emotional/ and physical/ strength.

Thus, the placement of all four of the royal stars in the cornerstone signs is consistent with the symbolism of emotional, spiritual, mental and physical aspects of all living souls. Note also that spiritual and physical aspects are opposite each other in the circle (white opposite purple), as are the mental and emotional (blue opposite red), also found in the Yin/Yang symbol.

In Num. 10:14-28, God’s Word removes the mystery of the order of the 12 tribes as they camped in the wilderness. Num. 11:14 verifies that the Standard [H1714degel; flag, banner] of Judah/Leo in first place, followed by Issachar in v. 15, and Zebulon in v. 16, with the sons of Gershom and Merari, Levites bearing the Tabernacle. Next was the Standard of Reuben’s tribe in v. 18; followed by Simeon in v. 19, and Gad in v. 20, with the Kohathites bearing the Sanctuary in v. 21, to sum up the first 6 tribes. The Standard of the Camp of Ephraim is listed in v. 22, with Manasseh next in v. 23, as Taurus’ two horns, then Benjamin, in v. 24. Verse 25 shows the Standard of Dan as the rearward of all the camps and their hosts, followed by Asher in v. 26, and Naphtali in v. 27. Verse 28 concludes with;

28 Thus were the journeyings of the children of Israel according to their armies, when they set forward.

From a Bible perspective outside the books of Genesis and Job, God revealed His Word and Will to the Patriarchs in the stellar witness and Celestial Gospel of the Promised redeemer of mankind. When we consider the Hebrew wordmazzaroth,” we find an early reference to the 12 Mazzaroth signs, occurring as a unit in Job. Later references to the 12 signs of the ecliptic in Scripture, are built upon what we find here in Job and the Genesis Creation record and the  Patriarchs. This provides added evidence of the antiquity of this knowledge of the entire zodiac, in the context of the Bible Patriarchs. In the graphic above we find the 12 Tribes of Israel linked to the order of the 12 Mazzaroth signs, with 3 tribes camped on each side, 4-square and the Tabernacle in the center, with Moses, Aaron and the Priests in the middle inside the square of 12 tribes.

This order of the 12 tribes as they camped around the Tabernacle is established in Numbers 2 in a graphic in the marginal notes of The Companion Bible by E.W. Bullinger, related to Num. 2:32.#15 Bullinger also has marginal notes on Num. 2:2 related to the word ‘standard‘ [H1714degel; translated ‘ensign‘ as follows; “each standard is said to have itssign” [H226owth; sign, token, symbol, standard, prodigy, miracle, indicating a signal of something, as God’s Abrahamic Covenant had circumcision, [Gen. 17:11].#16 A foundational aspect of God’s Word is seen in Gen. 1:14;

14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

These ‘signs are specifically related to the stellar nature of the 12 signs of the ecliptic, as seen in Gen. 37:9 linked with the 12 tribes of Israel fulfilled in the  11 brothers of the Patriarch Joseph. As we search the details of The Celestial Gospel, we will find it specifically and clearly stated in God’s Word, as part of God’s Old Covenants with His chosen people, especially in Abraham’s Covenant.

As Gen. 2:19-20 states:

19 And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air, and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them; and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.

 20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found a helper meet for him. [KJ21]

In v.19 what Adam would “call” the beasts of the field, and whatever he “called them is the same Hebrew word [H7121-Qara] as in v.20 where Adam names  every beast of the fieldStrong’s says Qara means “to cry out, to call aloud, to roar, proclaim, pronounce or preach, to summon, invite, call together, to appoint, praise, celebrate, or call by name.” Its basic meaning is to enunciate a specific message addressed to a specific recipient, to elicit a specific response. The verb form of this word is used in the act of naming, that sometimes is an assertion of sovereignty over the thing being named; [Gen. 1:5, Ps. 147:4, Isa. 40:26]#17
Even as God-the Father of lights asserts His authority and sovereignty over the division of Day and Night in Gen. 1:5, and over the naming of the stars in Ps. 147:4, so Adam asserted his sovereignty over the Animal Kingdoms of life, delegated to him by God.

We should note that Adam’s delegated sovereignty pertained to Earthly things, while God’s sovereignty ruled over all, with special emphasis on the things of the Heavenly Creation, as they shed their 3-fold light upon the Earth. When God calls the roll up yonder for the stars, they are present and accounted for in His summons, to fulfill the reason and purpose He called and created them. The named Stars fulfill their part to proclaim the Celestial Gospel in witnessing to the Coming Christ! This word [Qara] is also found in reference to the Seed of Abraham, namely Isaac, [Gen. 21:12b] “for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.”

Genesis 1:14-16
And God said, 
Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: [15] And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. [16] And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: He made the stars also.

Gen. 1:14: “signs“- indicate first, the significance of the work wrought, and secondlysomeone significant to come.[5] In context, the “work wrought” is God’s re-ordering of creation in the 2nd Heaven and Earthrepairing the damage inflicted on the 1st Heaven and Earth as a result of Lucifer’s revolt in heaven, causing it to be “without form & void.” [Gen1:1, Rev12:1ffGod’s repair job is divided into 7 spiritual administrations, or dispensations, each one bringing man’s relationship with his Creator back into increasing harmony, [Heb. 11:3]. This repair narrative is found in God’s progressive Covenants with Man, with each step bringing man closer to that perfect fellowship in Original Paradise with the Creator restored.

It also refers to the celestial narrative that “someone is coming,” the redeemer, the promised seed who is Jesus Christ. He is the central figure and subject of God’s Word. He is the one that the 12 Mazzaroth signs prophesy, the one embodying the light of the world, who fulfilled all Old Testament Law, and personifies the spiritual illumination of the world. The earth was thrown into Chaos between Gen1:1 & 1:2, but the effulgence of this light, the Sonrise of the ages, was framed between the two great lights of the Sun and the Moon on his birthday, precisely in the star Spica also called Al Zimach in Arabic (tsemach in Hebrew) in Virgo, on Tishri 1, 3 BCJesus’ birthday on New Year’s Day of the Hebrew calendar, celebrates the anniversary of Creation, revitalizing the social and spiritual structure of Israel according to the ruling Standard and scepter of the King of KingsGod had this date preserved in His omniscient foreknowledge before the Creation, instituted in the Hebrew Calendar, uniquely marked by the stars included in the story of Bethlehem on this date in 3 BC. We also find the pattern of the four points of the compass in star and planet signs marking the birth of Christ.

The pattern of eastern access to the Temple and Tabernacle is established in the order of the celestial signs surrounding the birth of Christ. We find this in the pattern of the 3 Jupiter-Venus Conjunctionsmarking Christ’s birth that occurred from to 1 BC. The first Conjunction was in the final degree of Cancer, near its zero line border with Leo. The second was fully in Leo, while the third was in Virgo. These three signs represent the eastern quarter of the zodiac of Israel, the heavenly image of the eastern side of the wilderness camp of the Israelites, the entrance or Way to the Door of the holy place (the truth) in the Hebrew Tabernacle. In Genesis 3:24, after God rejected Adam and Eve from Paradise, He protected the Way of the Tree of Life on the east of Eden, with the Cherubim’s fiery sword, until the redeemer could come to reactivate the way of salvation and eternal life with God, for humanity. This door ultimately led to the altar of the holy of holies, (the Life)-the inner heart of God’s temple-Sanctum, holding the Ark of the Covenant. The temporal progression of 3 Venus planetary unions perfectly matched the divine pattern of Israel’s tribal order on the east side of the TabernacleJudah/Leo was due east of the entrance to the holy of the holies, via the holy placecentrally located between the other two eastern tribes of Issachar/Cancer and Zebulon/Virgo. This eastern door to the Tabernacle represents the way, the truth, and the life, of John 14:6, embodied in Jesus Christ as light of the world, and the door of the sheep, as OT Shepherds slept across the door to their penned flocks, guarding the sheep with their lives, blocking the opening in the fold-walls. A Good Shepherdis seen in the decan Auriga [Jn.10:9-17]. A Great Shepherd [Heb. 13:201Pet. 2:25] & Chief Shepherd in [1Pet. 5:4true way that leads unto life. [See also Jer. 23, 25:32-38Ezek. 34]

Numbers 27:16-17

The Shepherd is the most popular metaphor for Bible leadership, but also we see that God chose actual shepherds for many of the primary roles of leadership over Israel. For example, Moses and King David, are two most prominent paradigms of leadership in all of Scripture, both started out as shepherds. And of course, Ps23:1-a most popular Bible verse, God Himself is compared to a shepherd.

The word for “lights” in the firmament [Gen. 1:14, 16 “maor“]18 is the same word used in reference to the lamps of the Menorah, (Exodus 20:27, 35:14). This word shares the same root of the word used for “light” in [Gen. 1:3-4], that God divided from the darkness, setting the universal standards of Day and Night. It should be noted that the Day was divided from the Night, and the light from darkness prior to the creation of the Sun and Moon. This points to spiritual light vs. dark
[Jn. 1:5], as the reason that the Earth became without form and voidbetween Gen. 1:1-2. The pure Light perfection of the Almighty in perfect righteousness removes any possibility that God created the universe in Chaos, thus the context of Lucifer’s failed insurrection against the Almighty, is the reason the earth was thrown into chaos. Also, the foundational order of Creation seen in God’s order or command to divide the light from the chaotic darkness, was a response to the enemy in his overthrow of God’s original order in the First Heavens and Earth, precedes God’s reorganization of this light in the Second Heavens and Earthduring the “Genesis Creation week.” The verses above also exhibit how the Sun, Moon and Stars regulate seasonsdays and years, in God’s created temporal order.

The Celestial Gospel was always to be based on the long-view of Biblical history of God’s Covenants with man, as they progressively bring man closer to the state of Adam’s original fellowship with God, which God never explained to Adam or any other Bible Patriarch. God’s monumental job of restoring Creation is being set and accomplished by bringing humanity back into a state of spiritual redemption so man can fellowship with God as Adam and Eve did in Original Paradise. God started His dialogue of dividing Day from Night and light from Darkness before He created the Sun and Moon and stars, as the lights in the sky, referenced in His Covenant of Day and Night that began in Gen. 1:3-5, was upheld in Gen. 8:22, and ends in Rev. 21:23-25. This excludes Faulkner’s assertion that God revealed to Adam the details of His foreknowledge regarding the entire Plan of Redemption,#19 that was not included in the Celestial Gospel to begin with! Here Faulkner not only discounts God’s eternal plan and the purposes in His Covenants, but also contradicts Scripture in too many ways to count! The basis for Faulkner’sstrawman” argument against the Celestial Gospel, also ignores the truth that God kept the Great Mystery a secret which excluded it from the Celestial Gospel, as part of His master-plan of Redemption, [I Cor. 2: 7-10, Rom. 16:25-26].

A precept of this study documents how in truth, the Celestial Gospel is clearly and specifically stated in God’s Word, as part of God’s Old Covenants with His chosen people. The Hebrew word for “Covenant” [H1285-Beriyth]#20 is defined as “an agreement between nations; [Josh. 9:6], individuals and friends; [I Sam. 18:323:18] or man and wife, [Mal.2:14]. A most important Covenant between God and Abraham [Gen. 15], was confirmed by Moses, [Ex. 24:7-8, 34:27, Deut. 5:2], was renewed and amendedafter the exilethrough the intervention of the prophets; [Isa. 42:6, 49:8] and the Messiah [Mal. 3:1, cp. Jer. 31:33-37]. It was a treaty, an alliance of friendship, a pledge, an obligation between a Monarch and his subjects, a Constitution. It was a contract accompanied by signs, a solemn oath and sacrifices, that sealed the relationship with promises of blessing for obedience and curses for disobedience.”

The Celestial Gospel also documents the effectual means of Oral transmission of the Covenant tenetsnot replacing their foundations in God’s perpetual Scriptural Covenants with man, but as an inseparable part of them, prior to their being recorded into the scrolls of the OT Scriptures by Moses. Man has always needed an external standard for Godly truth outside of himself, working in union with man’s inner compass and Godgiven conscience, that began with Adam & Eve in the Garden, before the giving of the OT Law. We will see more details of this in the record of the Abrahamic Covenant below.

Covenant Theology holds that God created humanity as one people, starting with Adam and Eve, who broke God’s only condition, not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil. After their fall from perfection, and rejection from Original Paradise, and with their seed in Seth, were led back to God via certain key Biblical Patriarchs with whom God made perpetual Covenants. This redemptive history, starts after the fall of Adam and Eve, as God makes firm His Covenant with Noah [Gen. 6:18] to bring him and his family into the Ark, with every living thing of all fleshtwo of every sortmale and female. In Gen. 9God established His Covenant with Noah and his seed after him [Gen. 9:9-17], with His token of the Covenant on 2 levels: with every living creature on the Ark with Noah, for perpetual generations, and with Earth itself, seen in the rainbow, not to destroy it by flood again.

Figure 1. Genesis Patriarch’s Table. 21

By adding up the age of years in the genealogies of Genesis 5 and 11 we find the number of years from the Creation of Adam to the birth of Abraham as about 2000 years. Since there is almost universal agreement that Abraham lived around 2000 B.C., we can see the Bible teaching that the human race was created near 4000 B.C. and is thus, is about 6000 years old.

Noah is a key Biblical Patriarch because he embodies the transition between the pre-flood and the post-flood world. Thus all the systems of Biblical timekeeping going back to Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob & Joseph, after the flood, includes the coordination of the luni-solar year, the year divided into 12 months of 30 days, giving360-day year, relating to the 360 degrees of the circle, all trace back to Noah’s pre-flood days. Thus, the calendrical practices of the Patriarchs of the Bible are summarized in Noah, combining the Lunar, Solar and Sidereal years in his standards of astronomical timekeeping. Since Noah was already 600 years old when the deluge fell upon Earth [Gen. 7:6], Noah’s use of this calendar continued, up to and including the 120-year period (120 x 3= 360), wherein he built and furnished the Ark. The Ark’s construction was according to the revealed plan of God, following a consistent divine pattern, the same tripartite pattern found in the Tabernacle of Moses and the Temple of David and Solomon, based on 3 Heavens and Earth’s and 3-fold creation of man in body, soul & spirit. Noah’s Covenant basis for his 360-day calendar, is also found in God’s Covenant of Day and Night, as we will see presently.

The Genesis record of Noah establishes the advanced astronomical practices of the Biblical Patriarchsprovidingbasis from which, the roots of ancient Astronomy and studies in Archaeo-Astronomy are traced to their true context. Noah’s Covenant with God took place after his family came out of the Ark, and included the first burnt offerings on the altar that Noah built, [Gen. 8:20-22]. This established an unconditional Covenant relating to the Earth, even as God’s Covenant with Abraham did, referring to Israel’s claim on the Promised Land. This is in opposition to those who would remove or ignore God’s perpetual claim on the Promised Land that He chose for His People, as the Creator of Heaven and Earth.

The accuracy of these ordinances of heaven set the standard for truth, in the key area of calendars and timekeeping also, still applied today, according to the perpetual Covenant of Day and Night [Jer. 33:20-22]. This is one trait of “heavenly mandates” that their truths can remain intact beyond the scope of their original Biblical Administration. In the record of Gen. 8 and Noah’s Flood, verse 22 certainly stands out as an ordinance of heaven that has remained a constantgoverning the seasons [Gen. 1:14after the flood. This is a key aspect of God’s Covenant with Noah, where God’s Promises are made with Noah and his seed, that day and night shall not cease.

Genesis 8:22
While the earth remainsseedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

This verse opens with the words; “While the earth remains,” speaking to this Covenant being Everlasting and perpetual in nature because the Earth will be around forever. The connective “and” is found 7 times in v. 22, and according to Bullinger “pairs four sets of opposites, to express the completion and perfection of this perpetual Covenant,” that shall not cease.#22  In Gen. 9, as God further established His Covenant with Noah, and his seed and every living beast on earth, with His token or sign of an everlasting Covenant, listed 7x in Gen. 9; [Gen. 9:9, 1112, 13, 15, 16, 17], that The Almighty established with all flesh upon the Earth. Gen. 8:22 is a key aspect of the “Rainbow Covenantwith Noah, as the productivity of the earth’s life cycles in four seasons, in the 4 Kingdoms of lifeperpetuate in the 2nd Heavens and Earth, in the Covenant of day and night, [Jer. 31:31-37]. Gen. 8:22 also reflects the biblical symbolism of the number four, as the first square number mathematically, witnessed pervasively in nature, as 4 elements of earth, wind, fire, and water, four points of the compassnorth, south, east and west. Also, the 4 lunar phases, mirror the 4 Cherubim angels that quarter the 12 Mazzaroth signs. There are also four heads of the animal kingdom, witnessed in the four constellations at the celestial cardinal pointsLeo the Lion-King of wild beastsTaurus the Bull and king of domesticated animalsAquila the Eagle, king of the bird kingdom, and the ManAquarius of the human kingdom. There are numerous other examples of biblical symbolism in the number four, like the four-fold ministry of Christ reflected in the Four Gospels, supporting this wisdom in God’s order of Creation. #23

The Great Pyramid’s Void and its Star Shafts.

The Vast Void in the Great Pyramid and its Star Shafts.

Happy Pi Day everybody! For Pi Day in 2024 our focus is the recent discovery of a Void in the design of the Great Pyramid. This nebulous void in Egypt’s Great Pyramid of Giza has been unveiled thanks to strange subatomic particles called muons.

It was discovered in 2017, one year after the detection of a smaller void that turned out to be the recently-announced hidden passage. The mysterious cavity is the first major structure discovered inside the roughly 4,500-year-old Great Pyramid since the 19th century. The mission used cutting-edge technology in an attempt to settle how the pyramids were built and how they have remained to stay standing for so long, questions that remain unanswered after eight years of scans.

Researchers probed the Great Pyramid’s interior with devices that sense muons — by-products of spacefaring subatomic particles called cosmic rays striking atoms in the atmosphere. Muons continuously rain on Earth at nearly the speed of light. But while these subatomic particles easily streak through open air, rock can absorb or deflect them. By placing detectors near the base and areas deep inside of the Great Pyramid, and measuring the number of muons that reach the detectors from various directions, scientists could spot empty spaces inside the ancient edifice.

inside the pyramidPEERING INTO THE PYRAMID Using muon detectors installed inside and outside the pyramid (positions indicated with asterisks), researchers uncovered a mysterious void above the Grand Gallery. No one knows what the cavity is for, or even whether it consists of one or multiple chambers. SCANPYRAMIDS MISSION

Upon developing these films, the researchers saw a surprising excess of muons coming through a region above the Grand Gallery, a sloping corridor that runs north-south through the center of the pyramid. The cavity appears to be at least 30 meters across — about the size of the Grand Gallery itself. “Our first reaction was a lot of excitement,” says coauthor Mehdi Tayoubi, cofounder of Paris’ Heritage Innovation Preservation Institute.

The open space may comprise one or more rooms or corridors, but the particle-detector images reveal only the rough size of the void, not the details of its design. Eventually, though, this detail of the Great Pyramid’s architecture could offer new insights into one of the world’s largest, oldest and most famous monuments, the only one of the ancient Seven Wonders of the World that’s still standing. Since its discovery, the Big Void has been left unstudied because of its inaccessible location in the center of the Pyramid. Its function remains a mystery to those who have studied it.

The Great Pyramid structure was recently scanned by a mission from international imaging specialists, the findings were published in the prominent Science journal Nature. Photo credits: Nature. #3

“Whether it is a chamber, or a construction anomaly, or something else is not possible to say at this time. But the view of Peter Der Manuelian, a professor of Egyptology at Harvard University is the “void’s size alone makes it worthy of further investigation.”

The “Big Void“, the name given to it by the scientists, is encased in rock, so it is physically inaccessible. However, through non-invasive scans, its volume was reported to be several hundred cubic meters. While some thought that it was a relieving chamber to decrease the weight on the Grand Gallery, Dr. Procureur said, simulations conducted by the team ruled this out because the void is too far above the gallery, around 10m, to provide any structural support. #4

Another interpretation was that it was another Grand Gallery — a passage that the pyramid’s builders used to move around its inside that was somehow sealed over time, he said.

The Void is located directly above the Pyramid’s Grand Gallery– the long narrow pathway that visitors use to access the King’s Chamber, one of four rooms inside the ancient structure. But this was not the only link between the “Big Void” and the enclosures inside the Pyramid. Both the Northern Star Shafts from the King’s and Queens Chamber’s appear to intersect both the Grand Gallery and the Void, on the schematics, but both courses of these shafts were built to purposely alter their alignments to avoid these internal structures of the Void and Gallery, as part of the design Blueprints and plans of the Pyramid builders. Since the Great Pyramid is not only mentioned in divine Scripture in
[Isa. 19:19-25, Jer. 32:20-21] but the context of Isa. 19 includes a repetition in both Isa. 19:19 and v. 25 that bookends these enclosed verses, as these “signs” and witnesses in the “midst of the land of Egypt” [H8432tavek]. It’s root means to sever or bisect. By implication it refers to the center, so called from its being dividedGen. 1:6 uses this word in reference to the firmament in the midst of the waters, in the same sense that the Pyramid bisects the Delta of Egyptian Nile river. This shows us a direct Biblical correlation between the geographical and astronomical applications of the science of the Great Pyramid, with the earth as the figurative center of both. As the Pyramid embodies the boundary stone of the signs and promises of God to Israel as seen in the Bethlehem line through the borders of Israel, and Egypt.

A Key area of Science is mathematics, as certain mathematical constants are built into the Great Pyramid. For example, when the Pyramid’s length is sub-tracted from its height, the product is 314.16, or 100 x Pi. Since the builders of the Great Pyramid also used the cubit as their standard of measure, where a circle’s circumference of one cubit was equal to Pi, we find these mathematical constants like Pi and Phi embody signs incorporated into the Pyramid’s structure, displaying God’s guiding Hand in the Last of the ancient wonders of the World, as a witness to the Almighty and His only begotten Son.

Figure 3. The Pi Ratio in the Great Pyramid of Giza. #5

Image result for Golden Ratio Great Pyramid of Giza

Additionally, when two of the Pyramid’s sides are added together in meters, the product is 100 x Phi, or the Golden section number. This mathematical constant was not discovered until the more recent human science of the 1790’s AD! To say that the Pyramid builder’s were “Ahead of their time” is so vastly understated, its almost unworthy of mention in such mundane terms.

An area of research that may prove fruitful includes the Pyramid’s dimensions and measures as they are exposed in Scripture, to reveal the secrets of the earth, along with it solar system partners in the heavens. Popular theories of who built the Pyramid include Pharaoh Khufu, who supposedly had his sarcophagus set in the Pyramid’s King’s Chamber, that matched the size and volume of the Ark of the Covenant in the Hebrew Temple and Tabernacle. But since this coffer was about 3 & 3/4 tons in weight, it was too big and heavy to push or pull inside the King’s Chamber, unless it was already inside the Pyramid during construction.

As noted by Gerry Cannon #6; the word ark in Strong’s Concordance [H727aron: is a box, chest, or coffin.] #7 Its dimensions are set in Exodus 25:10 @ 2.5 cubits long by 1.5 cubits high, (45 in. by 27 in. by 27 in.). This is also the exact volume of the granite chest or “coffer” that was the only object in the King’s Chamber, even as the Ark of the Covenant was the single sacred object in the Holy of the Holies, of the Temple or Tabernacle of Israel. Also, the laver or basin where the priests of Israel washed their feet, had these identical cubit dimensions. #8

Figure 4. The Metal Basin or Sea in the court of the Jerusalem Temple. #9.

 

Cannon further elaborates that the cubit dimensions of the inner chamber of the Temple, the holy of the holies, are sized precisely identical to the King’s Chamber, in the Pyramid, with the same volume as the molten sea of water on the Temple Mount as prepared by King Solomon. Since the Pyramid was built and sealed long before the days of Moses, when he built the Ark and holy of holies, and had remained sealed for over twenty-five centuries till the 9th century after Christ, so there is no natural reason for both structures to have identical volume measurements.” #10

This would be unless of course the God of the Hebrews is the Grand designer of both structures! This is quite logical since God revealed these measures for the Ark to Moses, and the Great Pyramid is the only other known structure where these sacred measures appear at this early point in history. The void is located directly above the Great Pyramid’s Grand Gallery, the long, narrow path that tourists of the Pyramid use to access the King’s Chamber, one of four rooms of entry inside the structure.

The only item of the Great Pyramid resembling a coffin is found in the King’s Chamber, at the top end of the Grand Galleryis lidless, missing any royal inscription or ornamental insignia, unlike other coffers made for a king. But it is the dimensions of this unique “coffer” that happen to match the cubic capacity of the Ark of the Covenant in the Temple and Tabernacle of Isreal, built centuries prior to Israel’s captivity in Egypt, long before the Ark’s dimensions were shown by God, to Moses on Mt. Sinai. This not only, reveals the divine secret source of revelation for both the Great Pyramid and the Ark of the Covenant, linked in Christ, of whom the Great Pyramid witnesses to [Isa. 19:19-20], as he embodies the Covenant with the Jews in the Passover Lamb, when Jesus laid down his life in perfect sacrifice for all mankind. Beyond this, the amazing lidless granite coffer encodes many sacred measures that were only known by the Almighty Creator. When for example, twice the Granite Coffer’s perimeter is multiplied by 10 to the 8th power, we get a mean solar radius of [427, 316 mi.]. Also, the Great Pyramid’s height multiplied by 10 to the 9th power produces the Earth’s mean solar orbital radius, or average distance between the Earth and Sun, [91,848,500 mi.].#11 As Jesus embodies the capstone and chief cornerstone of the Great Pyramid as light of the world-[Sun in Ps. 19] while enlightening the relation between the Sun and Earth with all its inhabitants and life systems.

17 “Make an atonement cover [mercy seat] of pure goldtwo and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.

The first thing to note about these verses on the Ark is that it’s dimensions and measures are repeated for the Ark in v. 10 and for the Atonement cover or Mercy Seat in v. 17. The repetition of these Ark dimensions serve to enclose or bookend the Ark measures and its mercy seat covering for atonement. The repetition of these measures also established the Ark dimensions.

The Ark of the Covenant was a symbol of God’s presence on earth. The Ark was placed in the Holy of Holies inside the First Temple. After the destruction of this temple, the Ark went missing and it’s whereabouts are unclear. There also exists no conclusive evidence that the Babylonians destroyed it.

The measures of this Ark in the ratio of 2.5 to 1.5 is 1.666… is a close rendition of phi (1.618). The Ark of the Covenant is thus built using the Golden Section, or Divine Proportion, and compares to the dimensions of Noah’s Ark [Gen. 6:15], also in the same proportion as ten Arks of the Covenant along side each other. The measures of Noah’s Ark; 50 x 30 cubits, in breadth and height are also a ratio of to 3, or 1.666, is again the same approximation of the Phi ratio as the Ark of the Covenant. The ratio evident in both of these examples include the Fibonacci Series [1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13…] where the two previous numbers in the series added together equal the third number. As this number series progresses, higher numbers in the series converge in increasing levels of accuracy to the value of Phi= 1.61803399… Thus the numbers and 5 represent lower numbers in the series having a more general approximation to Phi. This depicts a consistent use of sacred mathematical constants in divine implements of Noah’s Ark, the Ark of the Covenant, including the Israel’s Tabernacle and the Temple’s altar in Jerusalem with the laver or basin, where priests of Israel washed their feet, having identical cubit dimensions.

Isa. 19:19-20

19 In that day shall there be an altar to the Lord in the midst of the land of Egyptand a pillar at the border thereof to the Lord.20 And it shall be for a sign and for a witness unto the Lord of hosts in the land of Egypt: for they shall cry unto the Lord because of the oppressors, and he shall send them a Saviour, and a great one, and he shall deliver them.

An added element of the Bible’s witness of the Great Pyramid in Isa. 19:19 of Christ is seen in the word for “altar;” [H4196 Mizbeacha place of sacrifice. Bible Altars were primarily made of Stone, along with dirt, wood & bronze. Certainly the Great Pyramid is the greatest pile of stones to honor God on the Face of the Earth. In the Patriarchal Age-Noah, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, Moses all built altars to recognize and ratify agreements with God. [Gen. 31:54, Ex. 24:4, 29:44, Ps. 50:5] 12

Figure 6. Altar of Burnt Offerings

In Exodus 27:1-2And thou shalt make an altar [H4196] of shittim wood, five cubits long, and five cubits broadthe altar shall be four-square: and the
height thereof shall be three cubits
And thou shalt make the horns of it upon the four corners thereof: his horns shall be of the same: and thou shalt overlay it with brass.

As we can see the Altar of Burnt Offerings that God commanded Moses first is the same word as the “altar” in Isa. 19:19 referring to the Pyramid. As Moses’ altar was built based onvariation of the same numbers of 5 x 3 in the Fibonacci Series: an altar of acacia wood, three cubits high; it is to be square, five cubits long and five cubits wide,” so the Phi ratio is found as a basis of the measures of the ark and the Great Pyramid. It was the perfect sacrifice of Jesus Christ the pinnacle and perfection of Humanity, as future head of his spiritual body, embodying all the ideals and sacrificial offerings in the Temple and Tabernacle in human form. When Christ laid down his life, his one time sacrifice paid the price for all humanity, as the perfect High Priest, Jesus embodied atonement not only for Israel, but all mankind. In John 2:19 Jesus said “destroy this temple,” in reference to his physical body, while he stood in Herod’s Jerusalem Temple.

In effect Jesus’ contrasted the physical Temple wherein he stood, to his own physical body, the embodiment of the true templeJesus Christ, the 2nd Adam, is the consummate archetype, the finished model, and “chief cornerstone” not only for the nation of Israel as the Passover lamb and High Priest, but also for the Church of his spiritual Body, beginning at Pentecost after his resurrection and ascension. As the paragon of mankind, Jesus embodied the highest precepts of living spiritual principles in the prophetic illustrations of his life and ministry. Certainly, God did not record the Tabernacle’s symbolic dimensions or the design of the Jerusalem Temple, wherein Jesus stood when he spoke the words of John 2:19, without purpose. This perspective of John 2:19, depicts a prophecy of Jesus Christ in the Jerusalem Temple, representing this temple of stone and the bride of Israel in his physical body, that he laid down for Israel and all mankind in his crucifixion at Golgotha. Thus the blueprints of the Temple and Tabernacle depict the plan Christ fulfilled in his ministry to Israel and all mankind. As we note the Phi Ratios in the structure of the human body, so we can see their pinnacle in Christ the head of the nation of Israel and the Church of Christian believers.

The Holy of Holies was the key room in the First Temple. It contained the Ark of the Covenant and the two tablets of the Ten Commandments, along with Aaron’s Rod that budded. The Holy of Holies was the room where the High Priest would enter once a year on Yom Kippur to pray on behalf of the nation of Israel. As the Great Pyramid embodies Christ the chief cornerstone and perfect sacrifice as the Lamb of God, all the Old Testament animal sacrifices that are incapable of permanently delivering mankind from sin are wrapped up and fulfilled in Jesus Christ the High Priest, [Heb. 5:5-14, 6:20, 7:4-28].

Smaller Star Shafts inside the Pyramid

There are smaller cavities in the Great Pyramid that remain a mystery to scientists. Some members of the team thought there might be a connection between both voids and hoped that by studying the more accessible one first, it could provide more information on the larger void. No such connection has so far been found. “This is why we can’t rule out a link between the two voids, even though we didn’t immediately find one, since its possible that passages between  them that are too small for muography to perceive,” said Mr. Procureur. “Also the passages could have been blocked due to seismic shifts in the four millennia that the pyramids have been at Giza.” #13

Though he does not anticipate that any more large voids will be found, Dr. Procureur said there remains a number of other small shafts imperceptible to muography. “There are shafts leading out of both the King and Queen’s chambers. They are about 30cm in width so they’re too small for a human
to fit
through,” he said. “These are still a mystery even after multiple robotic explorations. They are definitely man-made. It leaves something for future generations to understand.” #14

There seems to be a plausible link between this Big Void and the shafts referred to above, from both the Pyramid’s Northern shafts of the King’s and Queen’s Chambers. The Void in the Great Pyramid, thus appears built into its structure at a key place corresponding to a space above the Grand Gallery, between the area where the Pyramid’sstar shaft” tunnels were aligned to multiple northern –sky stars in the Pyramid’s design. The idea of the Pyramid’s shafts aligned to specific stars suggests to some researchers that the Pyramid structure includes a representation of the heavens in relation to the Earth, and implies that the Pyramid’s enclosure of this Void supports the idea that its a divinely inspired, aspect of the Creator’s master plan for the Pyramid. As we find in Pyramid Fig.s 1 & 2 above, the lines from the King’s Chamber depict its Northern Star Shaft as it appears to intersect the Big Void. Could there be a reference to this kind of Void in the Bible? The Book of Job has some interesting content along these lines, as Job 26 tells us;

Job 26:5-11 
Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof. Hell is naked before Him, and destruction hath no covering. 7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothingHe bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them. He holds back the face of his throne, and spreadeth his cloud upon it10 He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end11 The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at His reproof.

In verse 5, the “dead” referred to here [H7496] are not human as Strong’s says: “they are devoid of blood and animal life, but not lacking the powers of the mind.” These are the familiar spirits of the “dead inhabitants” of the netherworld, the shades of Sheol= or the grave.” Sheol [H7585] arises in the immediate context translated as “Hellthe grave or place of the dead, the first word of Job 26:6. “Hell and the grave are naked in God’s Presence, before the Almighty, destruction [H11-abaddon] has no covering. These 2 words– “Hell and Destruction” or the place of final destruction in the 2nd death,” occur together as here in Prov. 15: 11 in reference to the desolation of death or those that perish, as also in Ps. 88: 10-12.#15 Jesus and his disciples cast out the spirit realm, from the tormented souls they inhabited, so these devil spirits remain ever exposed before the Lord, and the Almighty Father, as God has imposed numerous limits and bounds on their activities to prevent access not only to His Godly actions, but the believers are also guarded from access of evil ones, as they seek to steal, kill and destroy from mankind, carrying out the ministry of our adversary, [Jn. 10:10].

Job 26:7 is the verse I’m getting to in this context whereHe [God] stretches out the north over the empty place.” This “empty place” here is [H8414-tohuchaos, confusion, desolation, waste or a worthless thingGen. 1:2, Isa. 34:11, 41:29, 59: 4-9,]. Of [8414-tohu] Strong’s says; “This word tohu has no certain parallels in other languages. Therefore, its meaning must be determined entirely from OT contexts. One thing that is very clear is [tohu-H8414] has a very negative connotation. “It is amazing that Job 26:7 actually asserted that the Omnipotent and Sovereign God could easily stretch out the North over [Tohu the empty placeor space, and hang the earth upon nothing, anticipating later discoveries like gravityabout space!” #16

The Chaos and confusion of the enemy is where his works will lead, unless quashed by God or the believers. Ultimately they lead to his own destruction along with his followers. God’s dwelling place in the Northern Skies above the heavens, is off limits to the spirit realm. The skies of the North are also the target of the northern star shafts of the King’s and Queens Chambers of the Great Pyramid. Psalm 75 says;

Ps
. 75:6-7 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the southBut God is the judge: He putteth down one, and setteth up another.

By omission of the North in these verses, it reveals the true source of Promotion, from where the Almighty God dwells. Is there a link between the Pyramid’s Big Void, around which the Northern Shafts of the Pyramid’s King’s and Queen’s Chambers are aligned? Just as the Big Void in the Pyramid is encased in stone and can’t be accessed, so also is God’s dwelling place above the Northern Sky. The Great Mysteries of God remain beyond human or spiritual access until the time God sees fit to reveal them. Deut. 29:29 tells us; 29 The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.”

God has always had a storehouse and treasury of secrets for man’s ultimate blessing, that many have desired access to, but have remained forbidden to the enemy. Even our current spiritual Administration of the Age of Grace of the Great Mystery, was a “graceful gap” in the Northern Sky that nobody knew about till God revealed it to the Apostle Paul [Eph. 3:2-9], that even the angels did not know but desired to look into, [1 Cor. 2:4-10I Pet. 1:10-12].

Jesus obliquely referred to the administration of the Great Mystery when he quoted Isa. 61:2 in Lk. 4:18-19, but omitted including the day of vengeance of our God, that is still future in the Book of RevelationThis Gap is our present Age of Grace, as Jon Nessle has taught, embodies the greatest Limitation God placed on the adversary, at that time, because if the devil had known this, he would not have crucified the Lord of Glory, [I Cor. 2:7-8].

Since mankind had no way of knowing of the existence of the Great Mystery,  this puts it in a category of a “secret thing of God,” relating to knowledge that remains exclusively in the realm of the Almighty. The empty place of Job 26:7, is likely the Bootes Void a Gap of the Northern Sky that parallels the empty place” in Job 26:7, also referred to as the Great Nothing.[1] Its generally seen as a spherical region of space near the constellation Boötes, containing very few galaxies, hence its name. With a radius of nearly 330 million light-years across), it is one of the largest voids in the visible universe, and is classified  as a super-void, with only a few dozen galaxies.

The Great Mystery does not appear before New Testament Biblical doctrine because as a Great Secret, no man knew its details until it was revealed by God to the Apostle Paul, [I Cor. 2:7-10, Eph. 3:3-9]. The second part of Job 26:7 also leaves a clue for us linked to “hanging the earth upon nothing.” This seeming allusion to the laws of gravity is a key, since there’s been an insufficient passage of time to allow the formation of a Void this size, by gravitational forces in the history of the Universe. Thus, it must have been present since the start of the 2nd Heavens and Earth, in Gen. 1:2. Since the “empty place” alludes not only to a part of the Northern Sky without any of the 48 constellations and decans that narrated the story of redemption, but also omitted the Great Mystery, thus making it the foremost form of containment at that time#17

In his study on “God’s Absolute Power Over the Spirit Realm.” Rev. Jon Nessle breaks down the elements of Job 26 to illustrate how this context of the Book of Job “clearly describes five distinct forms of containment for believer’s to believe for when they walk for the True God. These are indicated by the five independent verbs ascribed to God; stretches out, hangeth, bindeth up, hold back-[block], and compassed, in Job 26:7-10. It is noteworthy that the first two of these limits on the enemy refer to what we have discussed above in Job 26:7. The 2nd limit on the spirit realm is also in Job 26:7 refers to Gravity and other Natural Laws ordering the physical realm like, time, the conservation of energy, momentum, matter etc. that the Creator has built-into creation. Even so mankind is bound by the same laws, that were once in the power of the first Adam, they were handed over to the enemy at the fall of man in Eden, [Lk. 4:6-7].#18

In some of my earlier Pyramid studies, I referred to the Great Pyramid as a “Boundary Stone.” This qualifies as another aspect of boundary and limit that the Pyramid embodies as a physical border that the spirit realm cannot trespass.
Like mankind, the spirit kingdom is confined by the Natural Laws installed by God, when He re-ordered His creation following the enemy’s failed Coup.
When we combine this with the fact that when line is drawn from the Giza Plateau to the southeast from the Great Pyramid’s apex, at the Ascending/ Descending passage angle, it intersects Mount Sinai, where God gave Moses the Ten Commandments, the added significance of the Pyramid’s Bethlehem line linked with Mt. Zion in Jerusalem becomes apparent in respect of God’s OT Covenant with Israel. This provides the basis of links between the Great Pyramid, Mt. Zion and Mt. Sinai as important markers with geographical and astronomical significance at the limits and boundaries of the Promised Land of God’s promise to Abraham.

The Triangle marked below [Fig. B] unifies the baseline of the Pyramid’s Boundary Stone and God’s Everlasting Covenant  Abraham, to Mt. Sinai, representing the Old Covenant through Moses, and finally to Mt. Zion in the New Covenant through Jesus Christ. The alignment of the arm produced by the shadow of the solar-noon reflection of the Bethlehem line, according to Lemesurier, corresponds to the record in Exodus 6. #19

As a partial explanation for these smaller shafts in the Great Pyramid, it helps to consider potential ideas from a spiritual context of the Great Pyramid. With this in mind, it is notable that the so-calledBethlehem line” that extends from the Pyramid’s sun-shadows cast during the daytime, intersect the town of Bethlehem and Jerusalem, making this Pyramid the Sundial not only for all Egypt, but for the entire globe. This Sundial functions not only for days and hours, but for the seasons of the year. Exactly as a modern chronometer gives the hours, say, of midnight, 6 a.m, Noon, and 6 pm., so the reflections of the Pyramid gave the days where the Winter Solstice, the Spring Equinox, the Summer Solstice and the Autumnal Equinox occurred. This precisely defined the Solar-Astronomical Year. For Land Surveyor’s using the outlines of the Pyramids on the horizon as reference points, accurate boundaries could be restored very simply with the use of onlycord and a stone weight. These Pyramids were also used in land surveys based on the same geometry of the Ziggurats of ancient Babylon, with 3-4-5 triangles, or right-angled triangles as the common standard for the dimensions of the Pyramid’s King’s Chamber, and coffer. These geometric principles are too applied in divine dimensions of the Hebrew Tabernacle and Temple, showing the Creator’s consistency in the Intelligent Design of His sacred structures.

Some of the Great Pyramid’s cast shadows appeared as “arms” on the ground, specifically the “two eastern and western arms of its solar-noon reflections,” as observed by Lemesurier, who states in reference to the Pyramid’s right arm resulting from its solar shadow that it; “lay in close proximity to the Bethlehem line. ” He continues with: “At some date during the Spring, the right arm of the noon reflection must start to align with the Bethlehem line. The first part of the arm to align in this way would be the northern edge of the arm, which is followed by the alignment of the apex ridge of the arm with what could likewise be described as the apex ridge of the Bethlehem corridor, where the arm was entirely interior to that corridor, and thus at the culmination of its alignment.”#21

The Great Pyramid Decoded, Peter Lemesurier, p.194 [see Figure D.] The key to this corridor within which the alignment takes place between the right arm of the shadow of the summer sunrise from the latitude of the Pyramid, with the Bethlehem line, is that the 5 miles between Bethlehem and Jerusalem, along with Mt. Zion are all critical geographic locations falling within this corridor.

When we combine this with the fact that if line drawn on a map of the Giza Plateau, in a southeastern direction from the Great Pyramid’s apex, at the Ascending/Descending passage angle, it intersects Mount Sinai where God gave Moses the Ten Commandments, the added significance of the Bethlehem line linked with Mt. Zion in Jerusalem becomes apparent. This provides the basis of links between the Great Pyramid, Mt. Zion and Mt. Sinai as important markers with geographical and spiritual significance at the boundaries of the Promised Land of God’s Covenant with Abraham. The Triangle marked below [Figure B] unifies the baseline of the Great Pyramid Boundary Stone and God’s Everlasting Covenant with Abraham, to Mt. Sinai, representing the Old Covenant through Moses, and finally to Mt. Zion and the New Covenant through Jesus Christ. The alignment of the arm produced by the shadow of the solar-noon reflection with the Bethlehem line itself, according to Lemesurier, corresponds to the record in Exodus 6.

Exodus 6:1-8 1 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Now thou will see what I will do to Pharaoh. For with a strong hand he will let them go, and with a strong hand he will drive them out of his landAnd God spoke to Moses and said to him: “I am the LordI appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as God Almighty, but by My name Lord[a] I was not known to themI have also established My covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, in which they were strangersAnd I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel whom the Egyptians keep in bondage, and I have remembered My covenantTherefore say to the children of Israel: ‘I am the Lord; I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, I will rescue you from their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgments7 I will take you as My people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God Who brings you out from under the burdens of the EgyptiansAnd I will bring you into the land which I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; and I will give it to you as a heritage: I am the Lord.

Figure BTriangle linking The Great Pyramid with Mt. Zion and Mt. Sinai. #22

Lemesurier draws some interesting conclusions in his thesis with Exodus 6. He points out the double reference to the Lord’s strong hand of deliverance for Israel in verse 1, linking it to the dual alignment of the solar arm with the Bethlehem line, which seems appropriate. If he is right, this supplies a
direct link between these key lines originating from the Great Pyramid as the Boundary Stone of the Promised Land, with other key references in these verses where the Almighty establishes His Covenant with Israel in verse 3. This idea is established in the upcoming eclipse crossing over the middle-east
in Egypt and Arabia, that also marks the border of the Promised Land with an “X” in 2027 and 2034, similar to the “X” over North America completed in April of this year, [2024].

When God establishes something in His Word, He repeats it, and as seen in
the 1st part of this blog post, God established His Covenant with Abraham, [Gen. Chapt. 15 and 17confirming it with Moses the deliverer of Israel. God also repeats His promise to give Israel the Land of Canaan as an everlasting heritage, marked by the boundary stone of the Great Pyramid. As the Prophet Isaiah has spoken eloquently in Chapter 19 on the Biblical details of the Great Pyramid as the boundary stone of the ages, so he carries on the imagery of the Great Pyramid in Chapter 19, with Jer. 32:19-23 of His divine Scripture. As the truth of Scripture in these conclusions still stand, then we can look at similar Biblical records with figurative references to the Great Pyramid’s passages and shafts to glean added wisdom.

These Star shafts have long been a source of conjecture, as they were first thought of as Air shafts to ventilate the Pyramid. But this option was muted as theorists realized the Star Shaft concept, which can be difficult to understand without Biblical connotations of the Star Names tied to the targeted stars. This is a central topic of the Celestial Gospel, a primary focus of Biblical Astronomy. As Ps. 147:4 says the Almighty Creator– has named and numbered the stars according to His purposes to tell the narratives of Biblical Prophecy about the Coming and Return of His only begotten Son Jesus Christ, the Seed of Promise, seen in the first Bible prophecy in Gen. 3:15. Most of the assumptions in the context of Egyptologist’ theories on Star Shafts are tainted by the many tomb theories that dominate Pyramidology. We do not follow this school of thought, for very good reasons, primary among them being that No Egyptian Pharaoh’s mummy has ever been found in any Pyramid in Egypt! Secondly; the tomb theories of the Great Pyramid only serve to promote the ancient Egyptian spiritualism and astrology, which are strictly forbidden in God’s Word. The tomb theories have only corrupted the Biblical witness of the Great Pyramid in [Isa. 19:18-21, Jer. 32:20-23] on which we have published a number of related blogs.

 Clearly, the Great Pyramid is not a pharaoh’s tomb. The megalithic pyramids at Giza and Dahshur are most definitely not tombs. Since no royal mummy has ever been found in an Egyptian pyramid, the long shadows of doubt are cast assuredly over these “tomb theories” related to the Pyramids.

In 2014 Ralph Ellis presented an updated Pyramid Star Shafts theory, that contains interesting elements worthy of note that we include here for your consideration. Ellis presents data from Rudolf Gantenbrink the German scientist involved in the exploration of these shafts with his robotEllis states that Rudolf “nearly solved this riddle when he commented on his web-site that the King’s northern shaft embodied the ratio of 7 : 11, as did the Great Pyramid itself.” In recent updates to Rudolf’s Cheops web-site, this snippet of data seems  to have been deleted, which Ellis calls “a shame because it was probably the closest I have seen anyone get to solving the riddle of the shafts.” What follows are Ellis‘ quotes from an article posted on the Ancient Origins website;

“What Rudolf was implying is that the shaft angle of 32.5° in the King’s north shaft gave this shaft a specific set of dimensions, and so the linear dimensions of the shaft are connected to the ratio 7 : 11. If the King’s north shaft were to be resolved down into its simplest possible figures, the vertical rise of a triangle formed by this shaft would be 7 units, and the distance along the base would be 11 units – hence the 7 : 11 ratio mentioned by Rudolf. This was highlighted as being somehow special, because the pyramid itself also has a 7 : 11 ratio in its dimensions. If the pyramid’s height were reduced down to 7 units, then the base length would be 11 units – the ratio of 7 : 11 once more. So, it seems that the architect was using this ratio as a guide in many of his calculations.

The Great Pyramid Dimensions

Fig 1.The fundamental dimensions of the Great Pyramid are 7 : 11.

Various writers have previously mentioned this 7 : 11 ratio for the exterior of the pyramid. In fact, it is even in Petrie’s Pyramids and Temples of Gizeh amongst many others. And the 7:11 ratio of the Great Pyramid’s external casing stones has occurred because the pyramid is constructed using the mathematical constant, Pi, as a model or guide. The simplest Pi ratio that maintains whole-number values on both sides of this mathematical constant is 7 : 22, and it was from this ratio that the 7 : 11 ratio for the pyramid’s external dimensions was drawn. The increase from 11 to 22 is due to the formula for a circle being multiplied by(ie:  2 x Pi x r).

However, the complete solution to the small shaft riddle came when it was noticed that the numbers involved in the shaft angles, also embody these very same Pi ratios (both the angular elevation, and the linear dimensions of the shafts). The shafts themselves deviate up and down by a few tenths of a degree, but the average trajectory is quite reliable. If we assume that the architect was only constructing angles to the nearest 0., the angles involved in the four small shafts branching off from the Great Pyramid’s main chambers are 45° 39. 39.and 32..*2

This is supported by the following quote from Graham Hancock’s website: “If the Great Pyramid exhibits the dimensions of the golden ratio, then mathematics automatically implies the pi ratio, so that 0.618… =1/Φ ≈ (π/4)2 = (3.1416/4)2 = 0.617… The Φ (Kepler) theory gives a theoretical angle of 51°49′ 38 (51.827°), while the π theory results in an angle of 51°51′14 (51.854°), very close to each other. The Φ and π theories are in such great contention as the primary design theory because of this close similarity. The dimensions and particularly cubit measures described above could therefore reasonably fuel either viewpoint. It also provides an argument that the Great Pyramid may have been designed to exhibit both ratios. In particular, the π theory is very appealing if one subscribes to the generally accepted idea that the height and base of the Great Pyramid is 280–440 cubits and thus the implied 22/7 ratio (approximation of π). Even the consummate surveyor Petrie subscribed to the π theory since it had corollary appeal in the British scientific milieu of the late 19th century. This ratio is also particularly interesting to those who would relate the design of the pyramid to
the circumference of the earth and embody it with other cosmological ideas
.”

And if we plot those angles and lengths on a cross section of the pyramid, something interesting happens -the rise in each shaft is exactly 70 Royal or Thoth cubits (tc). And 70 tc is exactly 1/4 the 280 tc of the Pyramid’s vertical height itself. So the linear dimensions of the small shafts, including their all-important vertical rise in cubit lengths, are mathematical and related to the cubit dimensions of the Pyramid itself.

The Great Pyramid Shaft

Fig 3.  The vertical rise of the small shafts is 70 tc in each case, or 1/4 the 280 tc vertical height of the Great Pyramid.

And while this is all quite clever, there is more to this shaft symmetry, much more. If we subtract the larger angle from the smaller angle on each side of the pyramid (the north and south sides), the numerical differences between the angles are as follows:

45° minus 39.5° = 5.

39.5° minus 32.5° = 7°

The value of 5.5 is obviously 1/4 of 22.

Surprisingly, here are those same Pi ratio numbers yet again (7 : 11 or 7 : 22), but here they are involving angles, not lengths. Again, the complex nature of these shaft angles can be seen. They not only produce linear dimensions that relate to the dimensions of the pyramid, but the numerical differences between their angles is also intimately related to the dimensions of the pyramid. This is a surprisingly complex thing to achieve, especially as the starting point for all these numbers is fixed by the mathematical constant, Pi!  This is achieved in part because the pivotal angle of 39.5° can be derived from (2 x Pi) 2, and also from the arc-sine of 7/11 (or 1/2 Pi).

And the really important outcome of all this surprising mathematical symmetry, is that it shows how the Great Pyramid reflects a projection not only of the North Hemisphere of planet Earth, but also projects a reflection of the Northern Sky over the ecliptic, as seen in the pole star alpha DracoThuban as it transitioned to the current pole star of Kochab, Al-Ruccaba of Ursa Minor. Readers can see that the lengths and angles of the shafts in the Great Pyramid rely on a constant of mathematical Pi as a fundamental of their design criteria. They are Pi-based shafts. But this means that their angles of elevation are fixed by Pi, and not by the position of a particular star in a certain Age of Precession. A Pi shaft angle thus points at a fixed angle, but most stars pointed out by star shafts of the Great Pyramid are variable-related to precession of the equinoxes.” #25

Depending on the Age of Precession, the star shafts of the Great Pyramid can be aligned to different stars, based on changing angle of elevation of the star via precession. This is an example of how the star-shaft theory can fit. If we discovered a shaft angle of 55°, this would equate to the position of Orion in about 4450 BC. And for any angle related to an Age of Precession, we can find the star shafts of the Great Pyramid aligned to certain stars whose star name, given by God [Ps. 147:4, Isa. 40:21-26] holds a Bible message that complies with the foreordained dictates of precession. This is not arandom or infinitely flexible” system, but variable according to the movement of for example, the pole star alpha DracoThuban as it transitioned to the current pole star of Kochab Al-Ruccaba of Ursa Minor, via the precession of the poles, over the last 5000 years. This embodies the shift of spiritual power from the dragon at the North pole to Cepheus the enthroned human king, [Christ @ God’s right Hand] with the North Star Polaris under his feet [Eph. 1:19-22] in this precession of spiritual power, pictured below.

As the Great Pyramid star shafts thus incorporate a map of sorts of the stars of the heavens, if we take note and pay attention to the star names pointed out by the star shafts of the Great Pyramid, they relate a narrative linked to passages built-in to the Great Pyramid. In a recent example below the apex & shafts of the Pyramid aligned with certain stars and planets significant for their links to Christ during key Hebrew Holy Days in Sept. 20, 2017.  It must be realized the since the angles of the star shafts of the Great Pyramid are built-into the Great Pyramid superstructure at Pi ratio angles, the static shafts of this monument are set against the movement of the stars in the heavens, based on precession. So when the shafts or passages align with certain stars and/or planets they relate a story of key details relative to Jesus Christ. As seen in the graphic below; we find a culmination of the Jupiter-Venus unions in a Phi relation leading to the Ascending/Descending passage alignments of the Great Pyramid with both Jupiter below the Horizon and Venus aligned with Regulus above the Horizon. This Pyramid passage alignment of Venus and Regulus took place on Rosh Hashanah, Sept. 20-21, 2017 emphasized the Rev. 12 sign alignment of Venus, Regulus, Mercury in Leo, forming the Crown of Virgo in the repeat of the Rev. 12:1-2; “Great Wonder in Heaven two days later on Sept. 23rd 2017. This crowning of Virgo, reflected the triple coronation of Regulus by Jupiter’s king planet retrograde motion in 3-2 BC, at the birth of Christ, as it also sets up a potential sign of the return of Christ, when these signs will be seen again in 2028.

Since the fixed star shafts of the Great Pyramid, will not always point at the same stars in motion all the time, when they do align with certain stars, it will be only at key times that the Pyramid was built to recognize. If we recall that these key markers will have both geographical and astronomical relevance, then it will be possible to interpret the message of the stars the shafts are aligned to, in light of the applicable Covenant of God and their related geography

These star shafts were clearly important, as their complex design must have doubled the construction-time for the Pyramid, as Rudolf Gantenbrink has shown with his detailed engineering designs for the Pyramid. Gantenbrink has supplied what I would refer to as a plausible explanation of the geographical application [See http://www.cheops.org] of the Pyramid’s shadow arms seen in the proposed observations of Lemesurier. #26 In his professional diagrams and detailed explanations for these small shafts. As he explains;

The Pi ratio of 7 : 11 is all about lengths, not angles. The angular differences we have used, of 7° and 5.5°, are angular measurements and therefore have nothing to do with the linear measurements that are fundamental to the Pi ratio. So the architect has devised a riddle for us to solve – ‘When is an angle not an angle but a length?’ This may sound like an impossible question to resolve, but the answer lies on every map. To plot a position on a map we need a latitude and longitude. But when using this plotting technique, it is convenient to have a distance measurement system that is related to the dimensions of the Earth itself. Thus the unit used in nautical navigation is the Nautical mile, which is defined as being 1/21,600th of the circumference of the Earth, or 1/60th of a degree of latitude. As an aside, the length of the Nautical mile is thus twice the Great Pyramid’s circumference, marking another key earth measure locked into the Great Pyramid.

Isa. 19:19 refers to the entire land of Egypt with specific regard to its Biblically recognized borders, and thus coincides with the pillar at the border thereof to the Lord,” referred to in this verse. What is interesting about these borders is  the only means available to ancient astronomers of obtaining accurate latitude and longitude coordinates was by way of astronomical sightings. Professor Stecchini {holds a Harvard Doctorate in classical measurement} conclusively shows that early astronomers from the third millennium B.C. could measure latitude to within a few hundred feet and do almost as well with longitude-a feat which was not repeated until the eighteenth century of our era… the ancients knew the length of the earth circumference very precisely, the length of their country almost to the cubit, and the geographical coordinates of all the main points in their realm from the equator to the Mediterranean…the sophistication of the ancients is demonstrated by the fact that they placed their observatory near Syene on the island of Elephantine15’- or half the diameter of the sunnorth of the actual tropic because they understood that it was not the center of the sun, but its outer rim which has to be observed…On the island of Elephantine was the famed well, whose bottom was said to be completely illumined once a year when the sun stood directly overhead at the solstice…By establishing the moment of solstice at the tropic {of Cancer} the ancient astronomers ably computed the correct circumference of the earth by the use of deep wells and obelisks#27 

This correlates to Ellis’ assertion that the answer to his ancient architect’s geographical conundrum lies in the definition of the Nautical mile, for this unit is related to the size of the Earth and it can therefore be measured as an angular measurement, focused on the center of the Earth. One degree of arc at the center of the Earth=60 Nautical miles of latitude on the surface of the Earth; and so we have found a very neat and logical occasion when a linear length is defined in terms of angular measure. It occurs each time a navigator plots a position on a map. So, the Pyramid’s shaft angles are geo-coordinates on a map of our planet.

What every grand quest needs is an ancient map, with ‘X’ marks the spot inscribed upon it. Strange as it may seem, it appears that we have exactly that within the Great Pyramid. As is explained in K2, Quest of the Gods, the outline of the Great Pyramid’s chambers represents a perfect outline of the continents of the Earth. But of what use is a map of the world, without some coordinates to place upon it? An interesting map requires an ‘X’ marks the spot marked on it. Well, we now appear to have just that – a set of coordinates to place upon our Great Pyramid map!

Understanding this clever conundrum allows us to plot the Great Pyramid treasure-map, at long last. We have four shaft angles that can be used for this exercise, and therefore four coordinates that can be plotted on a map. These angles are:

King’s Chamber          45°    &  32.5°

Queen’s Chamber       39.5° &  39.5°

And in doing so, something quite remarkable happens. Because the differences between these shaft angles were exactly 7 and 5.5 degrees, as was explained previously, the two points on the world-map are in very specific locations relative to one another. And if the points are joined up, as has been done in the following diagram, the triangle so formed measures precisely 7 x 5.5 degrees of latitude and longitude respectively. If the triangle is doubled with its obvious symmetric partner, then the resulting triangle drawn on the surface of the Earth becomes 7 x 11 degrees in size – exactly the same dimension ratio that was employed in the Great Pyramid itself.

The Great Pyramid Shaft Angles

Fig 4. Plotting the Great Pyramid’s shaft angles on a map, gives a triangle with the same ratios as the Great Pyramid itself.

Here, drawn on the surface of the Earth, is an immense triangle that has exactly the same ratio of dimensions as the Great Pyramid, and this has been drawn using the angles given to us by the shafts inside the Great Pyramid itself. Is this a coincidence? Rudy Gantenbrink thinks not…

This concept presented by Gantenbrink depicts a systematic theory of the symmetrical structure and use of the Star Shafts of the Great Pyramid, that is worthy of the Godly design and purpose of the Great Pyramid, in line with the wisdom of the Almighty, and His astronomical and geographical message tied to the Tabernacle and Temple of Israel. It is fitting that the Pyramid’s star shafts are aligned at Pi based angles, and we are proud to recognize them on Pi Day 2024! 

God Bless!

Synopsis of the Celestial Prelude Part 2.
Jesus Christ the Chief Cornerstone

As a brief review of the previous session, the Rev. 12:1 configuration of the sun and moon in the constellation Virgo was observed in Jerusalem between sunset and moonset, during evening twilight in the 20 days that the Sun was in Virgo, from Aug. 27th to Sept. 15th, 3BC. On Sept. 11, 3 BC, sunset occurred at 6:18 P.M. and moonset at 7:39 P.M. According to Rev. 12, it was during this 81-minute period that Jesus Christ was born and took his first breath of life to become a living soul. This new day, the first day of the new month of Tishri 1, 3BC, was marked by sighting of the New Moon, the sliver of the Crescent Moon marking the birth of the Son of God, and 2nd Adam, Jesus Christ. The description in Revelation 12:1 provides a precise astronomical record of this evening of September 11th, 3 B.C. We also reviewed the material on The Summary of the Celestial Prelude. It will benefit the reader to check the details of these teaching notes, as they have been expanded to fill in certain aspects and features of the original teaching from Rev. Nessle’s class on 12-12-23.

Tishri 1 was also the anniversary of Creation, but even more-so the renewal of Creation, foreshadowing the Return of the Lord when the waiting of the earnest expectation of creation will be fulfilled, as the manifestation of the sons of God is realized, and the whole of creation groans and travails in pain together, even as the Saints await the redemption of our bodies, [Rom. 8:18-23]. This also aligns with the truth that Tishri 1 was the first day of the New Year-the day of Trumpets and the inception of the Jewish civil Year, from the times of Moses back to Noah and prior. Gen. 8:13 tells us Noah turned 600 years old on this day, also when he first found the dry land to reappear. This shows us on the Patriarch Noah’s birthday, where God was able to restart the human race afresh in Noah’s family, even as our planet Earth was reborn after the cleansing flood removed the evil violence [hamas-H2555; Gen. 6:11], of that generation off the face of the earth.

Revelation 12:2 tells us the woman was in labor, near birth. Since there is only one of the 12 constellations on the ecliptic that is a woman, we know these signs took place in Virgo, the virgin. Rev. 12:3-4 reveal that the Enemy was cast out of heaven with his plan to kill the child as soon as he was born. In v. 4-5 the woman completes her labor, birthing the Christ-child, Jesus, providing clear acceptance  of this child as the promised seed Jesus-the Christ, and Messiah.

Jesus Christ was born on Wednesday, September 11, 3 B.C., between 6:18 and 7:39 P.M., Jerusalem time. On this day, the new moon first became visible in the western sky shortly after sunset, on the 1st day of a new month. This singular day in history, saw the star Spica in Virgo in the process of setting between the Sun and Moon. #1

Since Jesus was born on Tishri 1, 3 BC between sunset starting @ 6:15-6:18 P.M. and moonset @ 7:39 -7:45 P.M. These setting times are from Dr. Ernest Martin, in his book “The Star that Astonished the World” #2 and the book “Jesus Christ our Promised Seed,” #3 by V.P. Wierwille. Together they provide a range of times we are showing. We should also notice that Spica, would have set mere minutes after sunset on Sept. 11th. The star Spica in Virgo-teaches “Branchprophecies; in [Isa. 4:2, Jer. 23:5, Zech. 3:8, 6:12], embodied in Christ in the 4 Gospels as King in Matthew, Son of Man in Luke, Servant in Mark, and Son of God in John. We find the star Spica in Virgo’s hand, as the first a bunch of harvested wheat. The setting time of the star Spica was 17 min. after sunset, which I believe sets the time parameters for Christ’s birth-down to the minute, based on lunar sighting conditions of the first sliver of the Crescent Moon, marking the start of the new month of Tishri, at the equinox of this historic evening. This puts Jesus’ birth time range related to Spica’s setting time @ 6:32-6:35 PM, 17 minutes after sunset.

Fig. 1. “The “Great wonder” of Rev. 12:1 Sunset, 6:18 P.M., Sept. 11, 3 BC. #4

Virgo Clothed with the Sun on 9-11-3BC

The diagram shows the sun half-way set. The sun is on the ecliptic, the dotted line, and the solid line is the celestial equator, which is directly overhead at the earth’s equator. At this point, the first thin crescent of the moon appears, at Virgo’s feet, marking the first of the new month, Tishri. #4a

In this graphic we find the exact azimuth of Spica/Al Zemach @ 90 degrees East on the Celestial Equator, or due East/West @ the Fall Equinox position. This is key due to its alignment with the Cardinal points of the compass N,S,
E,W. As key aspects of the Planisphere, built upon the Ecliptic and celestial Equator, they encompass the 48 signs of the ancient Mazzaroth, including the 12 signs of the ecliptic with their 36 decans. Even as the star Spica/Al Zemach represents how Christ embodies the four Gospels @ the four quarters of the heavens, as the four chapters of the Celestial Gospel, so Christ embodies all Creation as the missing Chief Cornerstone that fits atop the Great Pyramid, uniting its 4 triangular sides as the most accurately oriented structure to these cardinal points of the ecliptic in history, built as an exact model of the northern hemisphere of our planet, on the dimensions of 1 to 43,200, from pole to the equator.

The diagram in the imbedded link for Figure 2 below provides a view and way to conceptualize how Christ as the missing capstone & “chief cornerstone” not only embodies how he encapsulates the entire Great Pyramid, but as a model of the whole, unifies & sits atop the body of the Pyramid bringing together its 4 triangular sides at its apex. [https://fb.watch/piRp51-qjN/]

This embodies how earth’s northern Hemisphere, encapsulates the Great Pyramid that is geometrically mirrored in the heavens, its capstone symbolic of the terrestrial North Pole, projected to the Celestial North Polar star, as a 3D map of both our planet and the heavens. Here the righteous Son/ Sun [Mal. 4:2] symbolizes an ancient knowledge of a Sun-centered Solar System, millennia prior to the “Copernican Revolution,” also witnessed in how the central candle enlightens the entire Hebrew Menorah, [Rev. 1:20].

Jupiter Crowning Regulus
Fig. 3 Jupiter Crowning Regulus in 3-2 BC. #5

The Rev. 12 sign was not the only astronomical event on September 11, 3 B.C. From sunset in the evening of Wednesday, September 11 to sunset of the next day-the 12th, the first of 3 Jupiter-Regulus conjunctions would have been visible to the Magi, as Jupiter could be seen approaching Regulus in the pre-dawn light of Sept. 12th. At this time the king planetJupiter was visible in approach of the king star-Regulus and brightest star on the ecliptic, in the sign Leo, the Lion of Judah, as it was from Judah’s seed that the promised seed and Messiah, appeared.

These four-fold truths related to the Star Spica/Al-Zemach are established in our realization that the King star Regulus is not just a single star but embodies 4 stars in the sky. Although appearing as a single star, Regulus is actually a quad-ruple star system [a.] composed of four stars that are organized into two pairs. The spectroscopic binary [b.] Regulus A is a blue-white main-sequence [c.] star and its companion, which has not yet been directly observed, but is probably a white dwarf. [d.] This is evident when viewed through a smaller telescope- with a minimal 50x magnification, Regulus is visible as two objects separated by 177 arcseconds; [177 arcseconds].#[e.] The Brighter of the two is called Regulus A, and the fainter-Regulus B. A cooler “orange” dwarf star [dwarf star]-[f.] Regulus B has a mass equal to 80% of our Sun’s, but only half as bright, and a surface temp. of 4,885 kelvin, [8,333 F or 4612 C], shining at [magnitude 8.1]. [g.] [B: a spectral classification of K2 VM4 V.] [h. h.a]

Regulus B, also has its own companion called Regulus C, but @ a mag. of 13.5, it’s only visible with powerful telescopes. With only 1/3 the mass of our Sun, the red dwarf star-Regulus C [red dwarf ] [i.] is bound by gravity to Regulus B as a gravitational partner called Regulus BC. The last measurements taken between 1867 and 1943 showed distances ranging from 4.0 to 2.5 arcseconds, but no new measurements are available. The fourth star in the Regulus system hasn’t been directly resolved by imaging, but its presence was revealed by spectroscopic analysis of Regulus A. [spectroscopic analysis]. [j.] Astronomers think this may be a close orbiting white dwarf [white dwarf] [k.] star and spectroscopic partner. There is a star known as Regulus D, but it is not linked to Regulus A. Instead, it points out a 12th mag. star located 212 arcseconds from the Regulus system. For decades people believed this star to be a companion of Regulus, but recent studies from the Gaia Satellite [Gaia satellite] [l.] show this to be a background star unrelated to the Regulus system. Thus, the 4fold Biblical symbolism of the star Spica/Al-Zemach carries through to the star Regulus in Leo, the Lion of Judah, visible to the Magi on the same night they saw the Star of Bethlehem. This also provides added linkage between the Bethlehem star in Virgo, and the 1st Jupiter-Regulus conjunction in Leo the Lion, as witnessed by the Celestial Sphinx signs. This also brings to mind the The Great Pyramid’s alignment with the King star Regulus on the feast of Trumpets-Sept. 20th, 2017 as seen in the graphic below, according the Christ angle of the ascending/descending passages. As this took place, the Great Pyramid’s apex alignment with the star Al Nitak, the 1st 3 of Orion’s belt stars, linking the Pyramid’s chief cornerstone to the belt of the “wounded one,” relating again to Gen. 3:15.

Figure 4.  Great Pyramid Regulus-Venus and Apex-Al Nitak alignments.

The Great Pyramid embodies the Christ-centered squared-circle geometry as seen in the Pyramid’s cap-stone. In Scripture, the words; “sun,” “headstone,” and “cornerstone” all share the same Hebrew gematria value of 53. In Greek the word “Son” shares this number value, of 530, tells us the Pyramid’s top-stone, embodied in the Lord Jesus Christ, is “the Saviour” [432] and “foundation” [432] of “all things” [432] as a “great sign” [432symbolizing the light of the Sun [Ps. 19:4], whose radius is [432,000 miles], or half the Sun’s diameter; [864,000 mi.] matches the “cornerstone” [864], “the word of the Lord from Jerusalem” [864] in [Mic. 4:2]. #m  In Figure 4 above we find the ascending and descending passages of the Great Pyramids two primary interior passageways-dotted red line. They appear linked to the Doctrine of the Two Ways, one going up to the King’s Chamber, and the other down to the pit. It also features the missing 5th, cornerstone-the central capstone, who is Christ as the Chief Cornerstone, the head-stone at the Pyramid’s apex unifying the cornerstones of it’s base, “the stone that the builder’s rejected,” (Ps. 118: 21-23).

Several ancient cultures designated four bright stars in the zodiac as the “four corners of the earth” or the “four royal stars.” At the time the constellations were drawn by Shem, these four stars were near the sun’s location in the sky on the first day of autumn, winter, spring and summer, considered as 4 of the most important locations in the sky. These four stars were well known at the four corners of the ecliptic, the first being the bright red star, Antares that anciently marked the autumnal equinox, where the sun appears on the first day of autumn. The next star Fomalhaut, was also a bright star, marking winter. This is followed by Aldebaran, another very bright red star located 180.0° opposite on the ecliptic from Antares, precisely marking the Spring Equinox when Antares marked the Autumn. Finally, the bright star Regulus, located almost exactly on the ecliptic, marked summer. Regulus, was “the Prince,” and traditional leader of these four royal stars.[n]

Each of these four royal stars was in one constellation of the 12 Mazzaroth signs on the ecliptic. Antares is found in the heart of the Scorpion (Scorpius). In Aquarius-Fomalhaut is located at the end of the waters being poured out by the Water Bearer. Aldebaran is located at the eye of the Bull (Taurus). Finally, Regulus is located in the heart of the Lion (Leo), the king of the royal stars. These are called the four cornerstone constellations not only as they form the square base of the Great Pyramid, when mirrored in the sky they form the corners of a great square in the ecliptic, as the basis of the idea of ‘squaring the circle,’ or ‘cubing the sphere’ as they also embody a foundation to under-stand the Gospel in the Stars.

Two of these ‘royal stars’ intersect in two of these constellations. Antares is not only the heart of the Scorpion, but also is found under heel of the Serpent-Bearer (Ophiuchus), [o] who is encircled by a great serpent (Serpens) and who is crushing the head and heart of the Scorpion-Antares. The second pair is the bright star of the Southern fishFomalhaut-not only in the stream of Aquarius, but also in the Head of the Southern Fish (Piscis Australis).[p] 

This great fish is pictured drinking in the “stream of living waters” from Aquarius, but these are not the only star names shared in different signs. Also we find the star namedSaiph,” meaning “bruised” [Gen 3:15] in the heel of Ophiuchus at one end of the Planisphere axis, matched at the other end with a star of the same name in Orion’s foot, as it crushes the serpent enemy at both ends of this axis.

In the case of the Scorpion/Serpent pair, there is a third constellation closely linked to them-the Eagle (Aquila), located near the serpent’s tail. The Eagle typifies the enemy of the serpent and is often shown in flight with the Serpent in its claws, even as the Serpent Bearer crushes Scorpius underfoot.

i. Four Faces of the Cherubim. Both Ezekiel and John the Revelator describe creatures which correspond to the four cornerstone constellations. Ezekiel describes creatures with four faces: the face of a lion, of an ox, of a man and  an eagle, later reveals them as a special class of angel-Cherubim (Ezek. 1:10, 10:14, 20-22). The first three of those forms correspond to the Lion, the Bull, and the Water Bearer constellations. The 4th corresponds to the Eagle, the decan often substituted for the serpent/scorpion when symbolizing the celestial aspect of the fourth cornerstone. This relates to the same substitution of the Tribe of Dan-called a serpent by the way, as they were the first tribe to introduce idolatry to the other tribes of Israel.

John the Revelator also describes four creatures, each of which is found on one side of the throne of God. One was like a lion, one like a calf, one like a man, and one like a flying eagle (Rev. 4:7). Here we see the same 4 lifeforms in correspondence to the 4 constellations, but in the reverse order as they are found on the ecliptic. This may not only put the leader first, but also have ramifications for the reverse order of ecliptic signs relative to precession.

ii. Four Principal Tribes of Israel. Jacob (Israel) had 12 sons, and each of them is linked in God’s Word with one of the 12 constellations of the zodiac[q] Hebrew scholars have expressed uncertainty of the correspondence of all twelve, but the four references to the royal constellations are clear from Scripture. They are the four principal tribes: Reuben, Judah, Dan, and Joseph.

Figure 5. Aquarius and the Southern Fish. [r.] 

The Message in the Stars - Aquarius - Berean Insights

The Water Bearer pours out a river into the Southern Fish.

Each of those four tribes is associated with one of the royal constellations in the blessing given them by Jacob or Moses. Reuben was told he is “unstable as water,” alluding to the Water Bearer. The name Reuben, means “Behold a son,” also ties him to the Water Bearer, among the zodiac signs, having the figure of a man. He is also mentioned as being over the “excellency of power” (Gen. 49:3-4)

Judah is a lion’s whelp” (Gen. 49:9) ties him to the Lion. Moreover, John refers to Christ as “the lion of the tribe of Judah” (Rev. 5:5), establishing the linkage of Judah to the lion. The Lion represents the King, and Judah began the royal lineage through which the Davidic line of kings came. The name Judah means “praised,” suggesting that this line of kings in the Christ-Line through him (especially Christ) would be praised.

Dan shall be a serpent…that bites the horse heels” (Gen. 49:17), which parallels the symbolism of the Scorpion/Serpent, depicted stinging the Serpent Bearer in the heel. The name Dan means “judge” and the serpent symbolizes the wisdom of a judge. The serpent in Eden was acknowledged as  being one of the wisest of his creatures. For example, the Lord has admonished his servants to be “wise as serpents and harmless as doves.” The kind of wisdom referred to especially refers to that of being a good judge. Antares, the bright star in the scorpion, found at the heart, acknowledged as the seat of wisdom. For example, the Lord put wisdom into the heart of King Solomon so that he could judge his people wisely (2 Chron. 1:11-12, 1 Kings 10:24; cp, Exo. 26:2, Ecc. 8:5, Job 38:36).

Finally, Joseph is compared to a wild ox, with Joseph’s son’s Ephraim and Manasseh compared to its two horns (Deut. 33:17). The Hebrew word refers to an extinct species of wild ox which has two long forward pointing horns, as seen in the sign of Taurus the Bull. The bright star in the Bull represents its eye, which is the symbol of a seer (one who “sees”). Joseph was a great seer, so the Bull was appropriate for his sign. The name Joseph means “Jehovah has added,” probably referring to his multitude of descendants. Thus, each of the four principal tribes of Israel is explicitly correlated in the blessings of Jacob to one of the four cornerstone constellations.

iii. Balaam’s Prophecy. The same imagery was repeated in the prophecy of Balaam about the destiny of Israel. He mentions that Israel shall pour water out of his buckets” (Reuben/Water Bearer), “he lay down as a lion” (Judah/ Lion) and he hasthe strength of an unicorn” (Joseph/Bull), and shall “break their bones” as does either an eagle or constrictor serpent (Dan; Num. 24:7-9). The fact that again all four figures correspond to the cornerstone symbolism indicates that this prophecy refers to the constellations associated with these tribes.

iv. Banners and Directions. Each of 12 tribes of Israel had a flag or banner with its sign. The Hebrew word for “sign” is translated “ensign” in the KJV Bible (Num. 2:2), but Hebrew commentators make it clear that the signs also refer to zodiac constellations. According to tradition, the figure of a man was found on Reuben’s banner, a lion on Judah’s, a serpent on Dan’s, and a bull on Joseph’s (Son’ Ephraim, who took his place). Their camp, in the wilderness reflected the  four banners facing these four directions: Judah facing East, Reuben facing South, Ephraim facing West, and Dan facing North, (Num 2:3,10,18,25).

v. Heart, Soul, Mind and Strength. The four cornerstone constellations also reflect 4D mankind in the symbolic four aspects of living souls: the emotional, spiritual, mental and physical. An example where the Lord seems to notice  these categories is when he tells us to serve him with all our “heart, soul, mind and strength” (Mk. 12:13). Thus “heart, soul, mind and strength” refers to human emotional, spiritual, mental, and physical aspects. Note that again these four align with the same order as the four cornerstone constellations. We also find evidence of this pattern in the four types of human personalities.

vi. Elements. The Lord also uses the symbols of fire, wind, water, and earth to represent these four aspects of living creatures. For example, he stated that “ye were born into the world by water, and blood, and the spirit, and so became of dust a living soul…” [Earth, wind, fire, water]

vii. Four Hebrew Tabernacle Colors. The Lord commanded Moses to use four colors of cloth repeated throughout the tabernacle, especially for embroidering images of the cherubim. They were blue, purple, scarlet, and linen (white), nearly always stated in that order (Ex. 26:31, 36; 27:16; 28:5-15). Those are the same as the four colors of the cherubim. 

 viii. Colors. The four elements are also represented by four colors. Red seen in fire, blood, and emotions. White represents the spiritual, just as white clothing symbolizes purity used for baptisms and sacred ceremonyPurple represents royalty as seen in Leo the Lion of the tribe of Judah. The water is blue symbolizing Peace and the spirit. These colors are also found in the Hebrew Tabernacle repeated throughout, especially in representation of the cherubim. [Ex. 26:31, 36, 27:16, 28:5-15]

A strong indicator of these four aspects in the stars is the placement of each of the royal stars sign. Regulus is located at the heart of the Lion and the color associated with Judah/East/Lion is red. The heart is considered the center of the emotions and red is the color of blood/fire, the element linked  with the emotions. Thus the red lion of Judah is linked to the emotions. Red is linked to Adam the first man/servant of God in the gospel of Mark that embodies the emotional aspect of mankind.

The ancient Greeks described Taurus as a snow-white bull. Aldebaran, the first magnitude star is located at the eye of the Bull. The eye is symbolic of a seer, as was Joseph of Egypt, associated with the Bull. Thus, the Bull is symbolic of spiritual strength, and especially the gift ministry of being a Prophet/Seer.

Blue is symbolic of peaceful tranquility, that goes with the wisdom of a good judge. When applied with a gift ministry it is the wisdom that is from above, which is first pure, peaceable and gentle, easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits [Gal. 5:22] as part of the fruits of righteousness, sown in Peace of them that make peace. This is how we can emulate the Prince of Peace, to promote true and genuine peace and Justice.

Fomalhaut is located in the head of the Southern Fish. This aligns with the mental powers. The color that is associated with this direction may vary: it can be blue, representing water. As we utilize the colors of the Tabernacle,  their scriptural basis provides us the solid foundation of God’s Word to draw our conclusions from, and avoid speculation.

Antares is located at the heart of the Scorpion. The heart is the seat of wisdom, and the scorpion/serpent symbolizes wisdom. The heart/chest can also symbolize physical/emotional strength.

Thus, the placement of all four of the royal stars in the cornerstone signs is consistent with the symbolism of emotional, spiritual, mental and physical aspects of all living souls. Note also that spiritual and physical aspects are opposite each other in the circle (white opposite purple), as are the mental and emotional (blue opposite red), also found in the Yin/Yang symbol.

It is Christ as the Crown and Apex, firstborn of all Creation, the Second Adam, who embodies the fullness of the Great Pyramid [Isa. 28:16], who completes the superstructure of both the physical [in Jerusalem] and spiritual Temples– [spiritual body] of his churches in the Bride of Israel and the NT Church of the Believer’s in Christendom, [Eph. 2:18-22]. In this way, the light of heaven is shed on the earth in Christ, the Son/Sun of righteousness [Ps. 19, Mal. 4:2] who rules over all Creation as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. [Gen. 1:14-17]. We also find this pattern of the four points of the compass in star & planet signs marking the birth of Christ.

Plate 1. The Great Pyramid and the Squared Circle. [#s]

The pattern of eastern access to the Temple and Tabernacle is also found in the order of the celestial signs surrounding the birth of Christ. We find this in the pattern of the 3 Jupiter-Venus Conjunctions, marking Christ’s birth that occurred from 3 to 1 BC. The first Conjunction was in the final degree of Cancer, near its zero line border with Leo. The second was fully in Leo, while the third was in Virgo. These three signs represent the eastern quarter of the zodiac of Israel, the heavenly image of the eastern side of the wilderness camp of the Israelites, the entrance or Way to the Door of the holy place (the truth) in the Hebrew Tabernacle. In Genesis 3:24, after God rejected Adam and Eve from Paradise, He protected the Way of the Tree of Life on the east of Eden, with the Cherubim’s fiery sword, until the redeemer could come to reactivate the way of salvation and eternal life with God, for humanity. This door ultimately led to the altar of the holy of holies, (the Life) in the inner heart of God’s temple- Sanctuary, containing the Ark of the Covenant. A temporal progression of these conjunctions perfectly matches the divine pattern of Israel’s tribal arrangement on the eastern side of the TabernacleJudah/Leo was due east of the entrance to the holy of the holies, via the holy place, centrally located between the other two eastern tribes of Issachar/Cancer and Zebulon/Virgo. This eastern door to the Tabernacle represents the way, the truth, and the life, of John 14:6, which is embodied in Jesus Christ as the light of the world, and the door of the sheep, the Good Shepherd [Jn.10], the true way which leads unto life.

The truths of Jesus as the Shepherd are vividly seen in 3 Psalms 2223 and 24, showing the sufferings and glory of the Lord. As Prophet, the Good Shepherd gave his life not only for the sheep, but for the safe-keeping of all people who would come unto him [John 10:11]. As the High Priest and the Great Shepherd, he is the first, last and only door, the alpha and omega, providing the way of access via his resurrection [Heb. 13:20] unto life, into the genuine spiritual fellowship with our Heavenly Father. As the King and Chief Shepherd, his return exhibits his final glory, coming as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, [I Pet. 5:4, Rev. 19:16].

Thus, like the eastern shepherd, Jesus Christ embodies Jehovah-Nissi: the redemptive name for God protecting His people, [Ps. 23:1].

The Door, or gate giving access to the holiest of all was covered by a veil in both the Temple & Tabernacle. The veil of the Tabernacle, which hung on four pillars, separated the holy of the holies, the central point of God’s presence among His people, from the holy place. Woven into the fabric of this linen veil, Cherubim were depicted, as a special class of angels who are always prominent in God’s throne-room. They are uniquely pictured as having four faces that correspond to the “four royal signs” of the zodiac, ruling the four-corners or celestial pillars of heaven, previously seen in Numbers 24:7-9.

In I Kings, the design record of the ten brazen bases of the smaller Brass Lavers, provide a strong clue that links the Cherubim with these four Cardinal Directions.

I Kings 7:25-30
25It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east: and the sea was set above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward. 26And it was an hand breadth thick, and the brim thereof was wrought like the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies: it contained two thousand baths. 27And he made ten bases of brass; four cubits was the length of one base, and four cubits the breadth thereof, and three cubits the height of it. 28And the work of the bases was on this manner: they had borders, and the borders were between the ledges: 29And on the borders that were between the ledges were lions, oxen, and cherubims: and upon the ledges there was a base above: and beneath the lions and oxen were certain additions made of thin work. 30And every base had four brazen wheels, and plates of brass: and the four corners thereof had undersetters: under the laver were under-setters molten, at the side of every addition. Verse 29 above clearly associates the Cherubim with the lions (Leo  and the oxen (Taurus), in the design of the ten brass bases. This link is fully developed in Ezekiel’s vision at the River Chebar, which we see below. Exodus 36 gives us details of the colors used in the veil of the Tabernacle depicting the Cherubim. Let’s consider some of this color symbolism in the services of the Tabernacle and Temple.

Exodus 36:35-36 And he made a veil of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: with Cherubims made he it of cunning work. And he made there-unto four pillars of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold: their hooks were of gold; and he cast for them four sockets of silver.

The veil hung from four pillars, representing the terrestrial number, and the earth’s orientation to the four Cardinal Directions of the horizon. The symbol of the number four is prominent in the imagery above, not only in the four pillars holding the Tabernacle’s veil, but also in the four Tabernacle colors shown in the veil. The four colors are blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen. Blue represents peace showing us God’s presence, as seen in the Son of God as the Prince of Peace. Purple represents royalty, as seen in Christ the King of Kings. Scarlet or Red represents blood, and is seen in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the high priest offering the perfect sin offering of his own life for our redemption. The linen was white, as symbols of the purity & righteousness of the Servant of God. Thus, the four colors of the Tabernacle all embody the four-fold ministry of Jesus Christ as the chief cornerstone in the four gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, showing his dominion over all Creation. As we’ve seen, these four pillars correspond to the four Cardinal Directions, named the equinox and Solstice seen on the ecliptic and Equator as the four-corners of the heavens. These four cardinal points correspond to the tribes, four royal signs and colors as follows:

Eagle/Aquila [replacing Scorpius below]
North/Scorpion/Scorpius/Dan/White (omitted in Num. 24, & Ps. 75:3ff)
East/Lion/Leo/Judah/Purple. (Numbers 24:9)
South/Man/Aquarius/Reuben/Blue. (Numbers 24:7)
West/Bull/Taurus/Ephraim & Manasseh/Red (Numbers 24:8)

The vision of Ezekiel at the river Chebar describes these living creatures, specifically their four faces, matching the signs of the four Cardinal Directions of the heavens. As we have noted regarding the North, it was omitted for a number of reasons. In the North we find the face of the sign Aquila the Eagle [Ezek.1:10], replacing that of his natural born enemy, the serpent-Dan/Scorpion, as is evident in the triple sign of the man Ophiuchus, as he wrestles Serpens the serpent, while stamping out the light of the Antares red-star, in the heart of Scorpius the scorpionEzekiel’s vision is recorded below.

Ezekiel 1:3-11
The word of the LORD came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the LORD was there upon him. 4And I looked, and behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire in-folding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the color of amber, out of the midst of the fire5Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man6And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings7And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf’s foot: and they sparkled like the color of burnished brass. 8And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings9Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward. 10As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle.11 Thus were their faces: and their wings were stretched upward; two wings of every one were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.

The matching of the faces of these four living creatures with the four signs at the cardinal points in Numbers 24, is worth a closer look. First, this correlation between the four Cardinal Directions of the horizon seems an obvious celestial reference, supported by the celestial wheels within wheels connected with these Cherubim, [Ezek. 1:16, 20-22, 10:1-22]. These wheels relate to the celestial structure of the ecliptic and the Equator, as one wheel is pictured within the other, and the points where they cross are the equinoxes. One Hebrew word for “wheel” in Ezekiel, [10:2 & 10] is galgal [*H1534], a variation of Gilgal [*H1536], the “Hill of God,” [I Sam. 10:5] where Joshua set up an altar of twelve stones [Josh 4], one for each of the twelve tribes of Israel. The word galgal is also the root origin of our wordGalaxy,” showing a galactic application of these wheels even into the modern day. Similar to the stellar reference of the 12 precious stones of the High Priest’s breastplate, as symbols of the twelve signs of the zodiac, Joshua’s altar marked their entry into the promised land, which was first deeded to Abraham [Gen. 13:14-15]. God marked the end of the Israel’s sufferings in the wilderness even as He had marked their exit from Egypt, with a miracle of parting of the waters, both of the Red Sea and of the Jordan River. He also marked the beginning of Israel’s reign of kings both in the anointing of Saul, along with the first Passover in the promised land at GilgalJoshua 5:9-10 has a figurative portrait of this initial Passover, as these “wheels of God’s justice” rolled over the heathen that stood in Israel’s way. Thus, when we view the two phases of the return of the promised seed, first in his sufferings second in his glory, we can see the following division along the lines of Jesus’ ministry as seen in the four gospels:

Sufferings

He came as a man/Son of Man/Luke/Aquarius
He sacrificed his life/Servant/MarkEagle for Scorpion

Glory

The Son coming in judgment/Son of God/John/Taurus
The Lion-king of Judah rending his prey/King/Matthew/Leo

As symbolic references to the four quarters of heaven, the 4 unified faces of these living creatures represent a composite of the celestial narrative, witnessing to the return of the promised redeemer, and his judgment on the assembly of the wicked. The 22nd Psalm reveals more details of this evident celestial pattern, in the context of the Lord’s sacrifice, in Golgotha’s foreboding shadows. This is the record of the assembly of the wicked passing their depraved judgment on the Lord, as they orchestrated the events that surrounded Jesus’ crucifixion. But as his immanent return speeds towards us, the mighty conquering judge will execute his righteous verdict with everlasting consequences for the evil ones.

Psalm 22:11-23
11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.
12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.
14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have enclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.
17 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.
18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
19 But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me.
20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.
21 Save me from the lion’s mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns. [reem]
22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.

In this Psalm, the wicked natures of those who brought about Jesus’ crucifixion are discernible in these obscene caricatures of the four winds of the host of heaven. These dark spectre’s of the Cherubim rejoiced in the Lord’s demise and death as they encircled him like dogs, ravening lions and gaping bulls, embodying the idol masks of Astrology. This was the peak of the power of this wicked assembly, but their time is past and their doom is sure. As verse 14 above tells us: Christ was “poured out like water,” which depicts him in this celestial context as the man of Aquarius, who pours the living waters of the gift of holy spirit into the saints. This also agrees with aspects of the common Hallel, as the last words of Psalm 118 rang throughout the Temple, during the Feast of Tabernacles in the last days of Christ’s ministry. We find this Biblical record in John 7.

John 7:37-44
37In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink38He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

39(But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.40Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, of
a truth this is the Prophet. 41 Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee42 Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was43So there was a division among the people because of him. 44And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.

It is Christ as the Crown and Apex, firstborn of all Creation, the Second Adam, who embodies the fullness of the Great Pyramid [Isa. 28:16], who completes the superstructure of both the physical [in Jerusalem] and spiritual Temples-body [spiritual body] of his churches in the Bride of Israel and the NT Church of the Believer’s in Christendom, [1Cor. 3Eph. 2:18-22]. In this way, the light of heaven is shed on the earth in Christ, the Son/Sun of righteousness [Ps. 19] who rules over all Creation as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. [Gen. 1:14-17]

I trust this will help with further insight into the celestial signs that marked the birth of Christ and how, as Rev. Jon Nessle has taught, they are the best scientific evidence for the truth of God and His word in existence.

Happy New Year and a Joyous 2024,
In Christ
