The Great Pyramid-the Boundary Stone of the Promised Land Part I.

The Great Pyramid-the Boundary Stone of the Promised Land Part I.

This blog post relates to the alignment of Regulus-Jupiter-Mercury on August 6th 2015. It has been proposed by others that this celestial alignment will approximate the angle of the Great Pyramid complex in Egypt on Aug 6, 2015. As only one of numerous key celestial occurrences in summer 2015, this deserves more scrutiny so we can understand this proposal. Since we are seeing celestial signs related to the Great Pyramid in the current context of the Blood Moon Tetrad of 2014-2015, it makes sense that we should also be aware of potential signs related to the Great Pyramid at the birth of Christ. To begin to comprehend this topic, we must first know what angle related to the Great Pyramid is being referenced. During our dialogue, we are introducing another concept that has gotten very little, if any attention thus far related to this topic; that of a Biblical Boundary Stone. Let’s begin with the Great Pyramid to uncover the angle in question.

The Bethlehem Line and the Great Pyramid.

Figure A.

The “Bethlehem Line” from the Great Pyramid

A primary key to our understanding of the relationship between the significance of the Great Pyramid and the birth, life and ministry of Jesus Christ is the Pyramid’s so called “Bethlehem Line.” This is the geographical application of the designed angle of descent and ascent of its {the Pyramid’s main} sloping passages, which is 26 degrees 18’ 9.7”—an angle significant for having once been the exact elevation of Thuban-the Pole Star from the latitude of the Pyramid. In fact during the third millennium BC, the then Pole Star, Alpha Draconis, actually shone directly down the Descending Passage at its lower culmination—and this was the millennium that apparently saw the construction of the Pyramid itself. This angle then—and thus, perhaps, the passage which forms it also—clearly has both an astronomical and chronological significance…If that same angle is laid off from the Pyramid’s east-west axis in a north-easterly direction, the rhumb-line so produced marks the bearing of the summer sunrise from the latitude of the Pyramid. [see Fig. A] Moreover it has long been known that the same line marks off several oddly significant geographical sites, and in particular, passes directly through the Jewish town of Bethlehem.[1] The Great Pyramid Decoded Peter Lemesurier, ppg. 19-21. {emphasis mine}

Figure B. [2]

Bethlehem Line and Mt. Sinai Line from the Great Pyramid

This so-called Bethlehem line not only intersected Bethlehem at Christ’s birth, but also intersects the point where Moses crossed the Red Sea with the nation of Israel during the Exodus, the point where the River Jordan was parted when Israel was led into the Promised land by Joshua, and Jerusalem/Mt. Zion, only 5 miles north of Bethlehem. Thus the “Bethlehem line” seems to summarize in geographical terms, Israel’s story of deliverance and redemption from Moses out of Egypt, to Joshua in the Promised Land including the birth of Christ in Bethlehem. One possible correlation to the angle of the Planetary alignment is that the angle correlates to the Giza angle toward Mt. Zion in Jerusalem, Israel. When this same angle is laid off from the Pyramid’s apex in a south-easterly direction, the line produced marks what is thought to be the location of Mt. Sinai in Arabia, [Fig. B]. The real Mt. Sinai is not in the Sinai Peninsula but is in Saudi Arabia as God’s Word says in Galatians 4:25 – “For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia;” [see Figure B]. Thus it seems possible that the Great Pyramid was a sacred altar and ‘mountain’ relating to Mt. Zion and Mt. Sinai, as a boundary stone. It is important to see what the Bible tells us about boundary stones. We find Biblical evidence of these land boundaries in God’s Covenant with Abraham in Genesis.

Genesis 15:18-21 ¹⁸On the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying: “To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates— ¹⁹the Kenites, the Kenezzites, the Kadmonites, ²⁰the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Rephaim, ²¹the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.”

Genesis 17:4-8 ⁴“As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, and you shall be a father of many nations. ⁵No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you a father of many nations. ⁶I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come from you. ⁷And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you. ⁸Also I give to you and your descendants after you the land in which you are a stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.”

Here we see the boundaries of the Promised Land extending from the River of Egypt-the Nile, to the rivers of the Fertile Crescent-the Euphrates, as an Everlasting Covenant. If we follow the extension of the Bethlehem line into the fertile crescent, it crosses The Euphrates river also.

Deut. 19:14 ¹⁴“You shall not remove your neighbor’s landmark, which the men of old have set, in your inheritance which you will inherit in the land that the Lord your God is giving you to possess. [Prov. 22:28, 23:10]

These property lines were marked by a heap of stones called stones of the boundary, and certainly there is no more impressive “heap or mountain of stones” on the face of the earth than The Great Pyramid! How appropriate that God could use the Greatest surviving Wonder of the ancient world, as a marker for His Covenant pertaining to the Promised Land.

Hosea 5:9-10 ⁹Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke; Among the tribes of Israel I make known what is sure. ¹⁰The princes of Judah are like those who remove a landmark; I will pour out My wrath on them like water.

The Hebrew word forLandmark here is [H1366-gebul] meaning boundary, the same as Deut 19:14 above. God had commanded the Israelite’s to keep themselves from the idols of the heathens that inhabited the Promised Land, but they did not. Thus these boundaries not only refer to physical, but also spiritual separations. God’s boundaries not only framed the real estate but also the lifestyles of Israel. Boundary Stones on Earth were known to have been sighted and marked from celestial coordinates for accuracy. This was the case in the building of the Great Pyramid in a ceremony known as “stretching the cord,” [Job 38:4-6] yielding the most accurately oriented physical structure on the planet aligned to the four points of the compass, [Fig. C]. Thus the Pyramid provides the anchor to delineate the borders of the “Promised Land,” marked in accordance with God’s Promises to Abraham in Genesis, the Star of Bethlehem, linked with the Promised Seed, from the tribe of Judah, and King David’s genealogy through the Christ line.

Figure C.

A key to the triple Alignment with Regulus of Jupiter and Mercury on Aug 6, 2015 is that the 3 celestial bodies approximate the Giza complex angle of the Pyramids. As we consider these aspects of the Great Pyramid as the Boundary Stone of the Ages, we find 3 immediate dimensions where this applies. The first considered next, is the Boundary Stone of the Egyptian Delta, [Fig. E]. Ancient Egypt consisted of two kingdoms with the Great Pyramid at the apex of the Nile delta, separating one kingdom from the other, upstream of the delta in Southern Egypt. Second, the Pyramid dimensions encompass all of Egypt as we have just explained above, as seen in Figure F. Thirdly, The Great Pyramid is the Boundary Stone for the Promised Land of Israel. The Giza Pyramid complex has also been shown to be linked to Mt. Zion, in Jerusalem; [see Part 2 of this Blog post]. This study suggests [see Figure B.] that such an angle also determines the real location of Mt. Sinai as all 3 sites have ‘Altars’ linked with them in God’s Word. Starting with the Great Pyramid, it is called an “altar” in Isa. 19.

Figure D.

Descending and Ascending Passages inside the Great Pyramid

Isa. 19:18-20 In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt, speak the language of Canaan, and swear to the Lord of hosts; one shall be called the city of destruction. [19] In that day there shall be an altar to the Lord in the midst of the land of Egypt, and 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 savior and a great one, and he shall deliver them.

“altar to the Lord”- H4196 {mizbeach} an altar as a place of sacrifice. The same word is used for both the brazen altar in the outer-court of the Tabernacle; {Ex. 39:38-39}, and the golden altar of incense in the holy place; {Ex. 30: 1-6, 27} which together, figuratively represent the bi-polar floor-plan of the Tabernacle-Temple corresponding to the system of Patriarchal Astronomy, as the polar centers the double square layout of the Tabernacle. This shows the direct geometrical relationship between the ground-plan of the Tabernacle, the Temple, and the Great Pyramid. First the double square blueprint of the Tabernacle consists of two equal squares; [1 x 2 rectangle] combining static and dynamic features as the capstone does} containing the phi proportion, even as the rectangular floor in the King’s chamber of the Great Pyramid. The Pyramid’s Descending Passage alignment on Thuban the archaic pole star in Draco, [Figure C.] depicts the precession of the poles, and the transition of the morning stars from Lucifer to Jesus Christ, encapsulating a spiritual history, from the rise and fall of Lucifer to the ascendancy of the Promised Seed. As the perfect sacrifice, Jesus took the sins of the world on himself for the redemption of humanity. This shows us how the Pyramid symbolizes a sacrificial altar, with the missing Chief Corner-stone representing, not only of the sacrifice of the lamb of God laying down his life for all Mankind, but also as the High Priest offering this singular sacrifice after the order of Melchizedek. [Isa. 28:16-17, 2Pet. 2:5-9]

“midst of the land of Egypt”- [H8432–tavek] It’s root means to sever or bisect. By implication it refers to the center, so called from its being divided. Gen. 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 terrestrial application of the science of the Great Pyramid, and its celestial applications in the firmament, with the earth as the figurative center of both.

“border”- [H1366-gebul] a twisted cord, boundary, enclosed territory, landmark, limit, quarter, space. In Ex. 10:14,19 the word refers specifically to the “coasts of Egypt.” Ezekiel 29:10 uses this word referring to the “tower of Syene” which was a very important landmark for the boundaries of Egypt. Ps. 74:17 uses it referring to the “borders of the earth,” which the Pyramid also figuratively and mathematically represents. {Gen. 8:22, Jer. 49:36}

With the Great Pyramid, Isaiah 19 describes an ‘altar’ where the Pyramid sits at both the center and border of Egypt. The possible correlation with other altars in Israel’s history broaches some interesting possibilities concerning the borders of the Promised land. On Mt. Sinai and Mt. Zion, the Bible describes instances where Abraham and Moses also built an altar unto the LORD. Perhaps an Altar linked with Mt. Zion could relate more with the Altar of a coming 3rd Temple in Jerusalem that may be initiated, or in operation. This Altar may be the final puzzle piece for the Daily Sacrifices to begin in a much anticipated third Jerusalem Temple.

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 that the only means available to ancient astronomers of obtaining accurate latitude and longitude coordinates was by way of astronomical sightings. Professor Stecchini {who holds a Harvard Doctorate in classical measurement} has conclusively shown 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 circumference of the earth 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 Elephantine, 15’- or half the diameter of the sun–north 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 famous 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 the solstice at the tropic {of Cancer} the ancient astronomers were able to correctly compute the circumference of the earth by the use of deep wells and obelisks. [6] Secrets of the Great Pyramid, Peter Thompkins, p. 211.

Figure E.

The Great Pyramid Bisects the Boundaries of the Nile Delta

One of the first groups in more modern times to scientifically study the Pyramid was Napoleon Bonaparte’s surveyors; “who found that the Pyramid was accurately oriented to the four cardinal points of the compass and therefore used the meridian running through it’s apex as the base line for their measurements.* Having mapped Lower Egypt, they were surprised to find that this meridian neatly cut the Delta region into equal portions, and they were even more surprised when they found that the diagonals drawn through the Pyramid, at right angles to each other, completely enclosed the entire Delta. Evidently a structure which could serve as such a perfect geodetic bench-mark [landmark-Fig. E] could not have been located at random, and without considerable proficiency in astronomy, as well as a developed understanding of the configuration of the planet.”[7] Deuteronomy shows us another occurrence of this word tavek.

Deut. 11:2-3 And know ye this day: for I speak not with your children which have not known, and which have not seen the chastisement of the Lord your God, His greatness, His mighty hand, and His stretched out arm, [3] And His miracles, and His acts, which He did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land;

“midst of Egypt”- [H8432-tavek]8 the same word as in Isa. 19:19 which is a direct reference to the Great Pyramid, but with specific relation to the Bethlehem line, which is the Pyramid’s unique witness to God’s “greatness, his mighty hand, and his stretched out arm, And his miracles, and his acts…” the many “ands” of this verse indicating the figure of speech polysyndetyn, which puts individual emphasis on each element of God’s manifested power between the “ands”. This figure presents God’s judgment on the inhabitants of the land of Egypt, encapsulated within the Great Pyramid’s lines, emanating from the center of the Earth’s landmass to encompass not only the boundaries of Egypt and the inheritance of the twelve tribes of Israel, but all creation.

Figure F.

Pyramid as the Boundary Stone of Ancient Egypt

Which hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, even unto this day… Jeremiah 32:20a

One outcome of this research shows that the ancients calculated the mean length of a degree of latitude in ancient Egypt to within about 30 meters greater than the modern estimate, illustrating once again the blinders that evolutionary doctrine has forced on modern science’s view of the capabilities of these ancient astronomers. The reference to the tower of Syene in this verse has also been understood as “from Migdol to Syene.” This word “Migdol” also occurs in Exodus 14.

Exodus 14:2 Speak unto the children of Israel,that they turn and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, over against Baal-zephon: before it shall ye encamp by the sea.

Migdol marks the spot where Moses, as a forerunner of Jesus Christ, lead the children of Israel in the miraculous crossing of the “Red Sea,” located at the eastern border of Egypt. This location was also the first prominent site indicated by the Bethlehem line of the Great Pyramid, showing the greatness of God’s “mighty hand” in delivering his people from bondage.

Isaiah 19:20 “a sign”- H226 [owth] A signal, flag, beacon, monument, a guiding pillar. mark, miracle, token, standard, symbol, proof or evidence. Here it refers to the Great Pyramid, the guiding pillar and monument which is a 1/43,000 scale model of the earth. The same word occurs in Gen. 1:14 denoting someone significant to come. Numbers 2 refers to the sign or “ensign” denoting the 12 constellations as the tribal ensigns for each of the 12 tribes of Israel, [Ps. 74:4]. Gen. 9:12-13 uses the rainbow as a token of God’s Covenant never to flood the earth again.

“a witness”- H5707 meaning a testimony, recorder, also a Prince. From H5749: duplicate, repeat, admonish, invoke and confirm.

“a savior”- H3467 [yasha] to be free, saved, to give victory, help, take vengence, preserve, Defender of the Faith. [Mt. 1:21] Jesus Christ as the complete savior, as the first and last Way of Salvation for humanity.

“deliver”- H5337 {natsal} to be delivered, saved, set free, escape. [Ps. 39:8, 51:14, 69:14, 79:9]

How should we recognize the Great Pyramid as a monumental witness or testimony the Greatest Savior and deliverer in human history? Certainly any signs pointing to the Birth and/or Second Coming of Christ would easily qualify. As we have documented applications to the Great Pyramid on my DVD presentation on the Biblical Astronomy of the Birth of Christ, his birth took place on Rosh Hashanah–Sept. 11th 3BC. With corresponding signs linked to the Great Pyramid at the Birth of Christ, it would be intriguing to find complimentary signs of the Great Pyramid with the “Christ angle” marking his victorious Second Coming-on Rosh Hashanah. As with the signs at Christ’s Birth, the heavenly signs of Revelation 12, the Sun clothing Virgo can be seen forming in the sky on 9/20-21/2017-Rosh Hashanah; the Moon is in close conjunction with the sun, heading towards the feet of Virgo on the 23rd 2 days later. Venus the bright and Morning star is in conjunction with Regulus. Three days after the Rev. 12 sign on 9/23/17, Virgo is “clothed with the sun,” the moon is now under her feet, and above her head in Leo are 3 planets-Mercury, Mars, and Venus, in alignment with the king star Regulus. The 9 stars of Leo and the 3 aligned planets form the crown of 12 stars, fitting the description of the Rev. 12 sign falling on Rosh Hashanah as in 3 BC at Christ’s Birth.

Thus the Regulus-Jupiter-Mercury alignment in Leo, approximatingthe angle of the Great Pyramid on August 6th, 2015 seems designed as a signal to get our attention leading up to the precursor heavenly signs of Rev 12, taking place next month in Sept. 2015, two years in advance of the rewind of the Rev. 12 heavenly signs 9-23-2017. The Creator is certainly bringing many resources to bear to get His point across is He not?? With all these heavenly signs occurring in the context of the Blood Moon Tetrad of 2014-2015, the signs of the Great Pyramid coming on Rosh Hashanah, and the numerous planetary conjunctions repeating the pattern found at the birth of Christ, the evidence is overwhelming. What follows is a review of the heavenly signs coming next month into the fall of 2015, and the conclusion of the final Blood Moon Tetrad for over the next 500 years.

Looking forward to Part 2 of the blog post, we will see the specifics of how Mt. Zion is clearly marked in the context of the Bethlehem line and the summer sunrise marker of the Great Pyramid, and God’s mighty hand of deliverance. The following is a summary of heavenly signs over the next 8 weeks to close out the last Blood Moon of this critical Tetrad, leading into the 50-year Jubilee on the Hebrew Calendar during the Feast of Tabernacles.

September 13 2015 – New Moon. The Moon will be directly between the Earth and the Sun and will not be visible from Earth. This phase occurs at 06:41 UTC.

September 13 2015 – Partial Solar Eclipse. A partial solar eclipse occurs when the Moon covers only a part of the Sun, sometimes resembling a bite taken out of a cookie. A partial solar eclipse can only be safely observed with a special solar filter or by looking at the Sun’s reflection. The partial eclipse will only be visible in southern Africa, Madagascar, and Antarctica. (NASA Map and Eclipse Information)

September 23 2015 – September Equinox. The September equinox occurs at 08:21 UTC. The Sun will shine directly on the equator and there will be nearly equal amounts of day and night throughout the world. This is also the first day of fall (autumnal equinox) in the Northern Hemisphere and the first day of spring (vernal equinox) in the Southern Hemisphere.

September 28 2015 – Full Moon. The Moon will be directly opposite the Earth from the Sun and will be fully illuminated as seen from Earth. This phase occurs at 02:50 UTC. This full moon was known by early Native American tribes as the Full Corn Moon because the corn is harvested around this time of year. This moon is also known as the Harvest Moon. The Harvest Moon is the full moon that occurs closest to the September equinox each year.

September 28 2015 BLOOD MOON – Total Lunar Eclipse. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes completely through the Earth’s dark shadow, or umbra. During this type of eclipse, the Moon will gradually get darker and then take on a rusty or blood red color. The eclipse will be visible throughout most of North and South America, Europe, Africa, and western Asia. (NASA Map and Eclipse Information)

October 8, 9 2015 – Draconids Meteor Shower. The Draconids is a minor meteor shower producing only about 10 meteors per hour. It is produced by dust grains left behind by comet 21P Giacobini-Zinner, which was first discovered in 1900. The shower runs annually from October 6-10 and peaks this year on the the night of the 8th and morning of the 9th. The second quarter moon will block out all but the brightest meteors this year. If you are patient, you may be able to spot a few good ones. Best viewing will be just after midnight from a dark location far away from city lights. Meteors will radiate from the constellation Draco, but can appear anywhere in the sky.

October 13 2015 – New Moon. The Moon will be directly between the Earth and the Sun and will not be visible from Earth. This phase occurs at 00:06 UTC. This is the best time of the month to observe faint objects such as galaxies and star clusters because there is no moonlight to interfere.

Biblical Blood Moon Calendar

HistBibAstron — Biblical Astronomy and the History of Israel

The events presented in this study of the Biblical Blood Moon Calendar, reflect a unity of celestial events in the history of Israel on key feasts and holy days of Israel’s sacred calendar. As we research these celestial signs, namely the Blood Moon Tetrads and other solar and lunar eclipses over the last 2000 years, we gain a deeper understanding of the prophecies leading to the end of days and the victorious return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It helps to have some perspective on how the Almighty Creator embodied the order of His celestial symbolism in the structure and sacred blueprints and patterns of the Temple and Tabernacle of Israel. The numbers that highlight the Jubilee cycle [Levi. 25:4,8] are a combination of seven, twelve and fifty, at the core of God’s division of Space-Time in the cycles of day and night. We can see the roots of His “sacred geometry” in the famous 3-4-5 triangle, popularized in the ancient world by the Pythagoreans, but applied long before them by Elohim, the Creator & “Great Geometer,” as the Pythagoreans called Him. The affinity between the numbers seven and twelve is found in this unique triangle because the sum of 3 + 4 gives the number of days in the Week of Creation, the blueprint of all seven-day weeks to follow. It also numbers the 7 spiritual administrations and the Sabbatical years in the Godly temporal order. The sum of 3+4+5 gives us the number of 12 Months in a year, relating to the signs of the zodiac and the 12 tribes of Israel. The sum of it’s square’s gives us the number fifty related to Pentecost and the Hebrew Jubilee. As we multiply 3 x 4 x 5 it equals the base 60 number standard underlying the precession of the equinoxes, ordering all Space-Time in Creation. The graphic below shows the relation of the 3-4-5 triangle to the double square rectangle as a basis of the Hebrew Temple & Tabernacle, as seen below, with these exact dimensions also being found in the Kings Chamber of the Great Pyramid.

Fig. 1. Ground-Plans of the Hebrew Temple and Tabernacle

The double-square rectangle, in Fig. ii below, corresponds to the basic ground-plan for the O.T. Tabernacle incorporating the phi ratio, or golden section, also containing the 3-4-5 triangle, as a basic geometric symbol of the Creator’s life-giving power. The phi ratio is a ruling principle of growth, in all God’s kingdoms of terrestrial life. Phi governs growth-life, dictating the standard of the rate of change, as life-forms transition from one stage of growth to the next in time. God is too big for us to grasp in the unity of His totality, so he made it easier for us, His created beings to relate to Him by the way He ordered His creation. We can get a sense of Who He is by studying the manifestation of the microcosm in the Natural order of the Heavens and Earth. The perfect ratio of the golden section gives us an ideal perspective to understand the nature and beauty of the Creator’s Light, through the life of Christ, the Light of the World. As Phi is the governing principle, (auxano) of both the microcosm, ruling over the growth of terrestrial life, so it also rules over the macrocosm, providing the basis for example, of the musical harmony in the celestial order of the planets of our solar system, evident in germinal form in Bodes Law, and Kepler’s Laws of Planetary Motion. The same phi ratio that rules the Heavenly order is also evident in spiral form of galaxies and other aspects of the celestial order, [Romans 8:19-23].

Figure ii. The 3-4-5 Triangle in the Double Square Rectangle

Exodus 26 denotes in verses 15-30 a description of wooden boards constituting the Tabernacle’s Inner Court structure. This wooden framework was assembled from 48 boards, eachten cubits high, and 1.5 cubits wide... This mirrors the structure of the 12 zodiacal signs/12 months, including their 36 decans (12+36=48), divided into ten degree decans. This shows not only an evident celestial plan, but also marks the Tabernacle as the focal point of the celestial and spiritual light of God’s presence on Earth during the early Old Testament Law period. As the 12 signs of the Hebrew zodiac embody the structure of Israel’s temporal order (12 x 4=48), with each tribe symbolizing one of the 12 sons of Jacob, whom God renamed Israel, after his spiritual inheritance, so we expect to see this symmetrical pattern in other aspects of the Creator’s Intelligent Design of Creation. One example is found in the Tabernacle’s order of Priests, also instituted in the Temple by Kings David and Solomon, 480 (12 x 40 or 120 x 4) years after the Exodus in 1446 BC. These two greatest Kings of Israel, each reigned 40 years, and Solomon began building the Temple in the 4th year of his reign, the 480th year following the Exodus of Israel, [I Kgs. 6:1]. This 480-year period allows 12 x 40-year generations, a generation for each of Israel’s 12 tribes, which Moses lead through the wilderness for 40 years, during the third 40-year segment of his life (40 x 3=120).

One hundred-twenty shows up in other key areas which should arrest our attention. For example, there were 120 ropes holding up 60 wooden pillars of the Tabernacle, even as Noah built the Ark in 120 years, [Gen. 6:3]. Also Moses’ life span was 120 years [Deut. 34:7]. [II Chron. 5:11-14] shows 120 priests blowing silver trumps unified with the Israelites in their praise of God, resulting in God filling the House with the cloud of His presence. [Acts 1:15] also shows 120 believers in the Temple on the Day of Pentecost, [I Cor. 3:15-16]. This reflects the same base 60 number pattern seen in Noah’s Calendar of 360-days, (120 x 3 =360).[read more].

The blue-print and sacred pattern of the priestly order of service, instituted in the Temple, reflects 24 courses of priests; [12x2] each serving twice during the sacred Hebrew calendar year, totaling 48 weeks. When the three weeks of Passover, Pentecost and Feast of Tabernacles are included, wherein all the priests served, we have the 51 weeks of Israel’s luni-solar calendar, divided according to the sacred and civil services.¹

The sacred year began in Nisan with the spring Passover, and the civil year in the fall, started with the first of Tishri, the Day of Trumpets, signaling the onset of the holiest 7th month. The separate weeks of this luni-solar year were ordered according to the 7 -year sabbaticals summarized in the 50-year cycle of Hebrew Jubilees, as we have previously seen, in the unity of the Luni-solar cycles according to the Symmetry of the phi ratio. We can see hints of this temporal order based on the number 50, in the 50 loops and taches coupling the Tabernacle’s curtains together, making it one tabernacle. [Exod 26: 5-6, 10-11]. As we witness unity in the Tabernacle’s coupling of its curtains through 50 loops, fastened to the 48 wooden planks of the Inner Court walls, so the unity of the celestial cycles of the two great lights of the Sun and Moon, is summarized in the 50 year Jubilee. This 50-year sacred cycle epitomized the ideal unity of the divine temporal order, embodies numerous details of the Tabernacle’s structure, which we have only listed a few here.

Since the Moonlight is only the reflected light of the Sun, the unity of the luni-solar cycle shedding their combined light on the Earth, fulfills God’s purpose for the celestial bodies delineated in Gen. 1:14-16. In the brief summary above, a basis is laid to better understand Israel’s feasts and holy days in light of their symbolism in the structure of the Temple and Tabernacle. This provides an important contextual understanding for the Blood Moon Chart that follows. The Chart below reflects 9 Biblical Blood Moon Tetrads as they relate to key events in the History of Israel over nearly the last 2000 years. It is interesting to note that some of these key dates are repeated where these celestial signs have occurred. We have noted dates where Solar or Lunar eclipses took place within a day of Hebrew Feasts and Holy days in the years of Blood Moon Tetrads. The only exception to this are the Solar and Lunar eclipses that happened from 69-71 AD, marking the Roman’s destruction of the Jerusalem Temple, which were not Blood Moons, but other types of eclipses that took place on Hebrew Feasts and Holy Days. This provides a historical summary of Blood Moon Tetrads as they are linked with critical dates in the history of Israel, leading up to end times and the current day as we are experiencing the last Blood Moon Tetrad that will take place, linked with Hebrew Feast and holy days over the next 500 years. God knew in His infinite and eternal wisdom that these celestial signs would shed light on the events leading to the apocalypse, so that His faithful followers would be ready for the Second Coming of His only begotten Son Jesus Christ.

Repeat Dates of the celestial signs on the Blood Moon Calendar

From April 14th-15th we find a 2 Passover Blood Moons in 32 and 2014, along with a Passover Penumbral Lunar Eclipse in 70 AD. In 2014 as in 70 AD the Jews were at war.

From October 7th-8th we find 3 Sukkot/Tabernacle Feast Blood Moons in 32 AD, 1949 and 2014, along with a Penumbral lunar eclipse on the Feast of Tabernacles/Sukkot in 70 AD. In 1949 Israel fought for and won their independence as a state, as in 2014 they are currently fighting Hamas.

From September 12th-13th we find a Blood Moon on Yom Kippur in 843, and a Partial Solar Eclipse on the Feast of Trumpets in 2015.

On October 18th we see a Partial lunar eclipse in 69 AD, and a Blood Moon in 1967, both on the Feast of Tabernacles/Sukkot. During both years the Jews were at war.

On March 30th we see a Rosh Hashanah Total Solar eclipse in 70 AD, and a Passover Blood Moon in 861.

On October 3rd, we see Yom Kippur Blood Moons in 795 and 860. In both years, the Islamic hordes are dealt key defeats on the battlefield preventing their advance in Europe.

Of these above eclipses showing common dates, only 3 occur on the same Hebrew Feast or Holy day.
Both eclipses from October 7th-8th and those falling on October 18th, are all on the Feast of Tabernacles. Also both Blood Moon eclipses on October 3rd fall on Yom Kippur.

It is noteworthy to point out the similarity in Passover Blood Moons that occurred on 4/13/68 and 4/15/2014. The 1968 Passover Blood Moon was part of a Blood Moon Tetrad that was completed in this Sabbatical Year, on Israel’s sacred calendar. The 2014 Passover Blood Moon initiates a Blood Moon Tetrad, concluding in the Israel’s Jubilee Year of 2015, the summation of 7 Sabbatical cycles in the 50th year. The similarity however does not stop here. According to NASA, Mars which is only a week past its closest point to the Earth; [opposition] was 9 degrees NW of the Blood Moon in Virgo, which is very close to the celestial scenario on 4/13/1968, also in Virgo. With the Red Planet Mars this bright in the sky, it rivals the Blood Moon in Virgo, and as we consider the symbolism of Mars in Biblical Astronomy, this gets even more interesting. In Biblical Astronomy, Mars embodies Michael the Warrior Archangel who fights for God’s people, so we see Mars coming to Israel’s [Virgo] aid in a time of crisis or war. Throughout the OT, God Almighty used Israel as an example of His Power, Grace and Love as He delivers them from their enemies. We saw this in the Blood Moon Tetrads of 1949-50 and 1967-1968, in Israel’s Battles for statehood, and as they regained control of Jerusalem for the first time in nearly 2000 years.

The following observations from NASA relating to the 4/15/2014 Passover Blood Moon are noteworthy; “Spica (m = +1.05) is the most conspicuous star lying just 2° west of the eclipsed Moon. This juxtaposition reminds the author of total lunar eclipse of 1968 Apr 13 when Spica appeared only 1.3° SW of the Moon at mid-totality. The brilliant blue color of Spica is a striking contrast with the crimson Moon. Just a week past opposition, Mars (m = -1.4) appears 2 magnitudes brighter than Spica lying 9.5° northwest of the Moon. Arcturus (m = +0.15) is 32° to the north, Saturn (m = +0.2) is 26° to the east, and Antares (m = +1.07) is 44° to the southeast.”2

In Biblical Astronomy Spica is a very important star to understand. As the brightest star in Virgo, Spica, or as it is known in the Hebrew zodiac, “Al Zemach,” means- “the branch” in reference to Christ as the branch or offspring of God the Father. The Four Gospels indicate the 4 ministries of Christ: as seen in this Hebrew word “zemach”-branch. This word is used 12 times in the OT, but these four usages delineate the 4D Ministry of the Messiah, Jehovah’s Branch, each set forth in the Four Gospels.

1. Matt.-King of Righteousness [“Kingdom” referred to in Matthew more than anywhere else] [*Zech. 9:9, Jer. 23:5-6, 33:15] Thus the royal genealogy is in Matt. 1:1-17]. “Kingdom of Heaven” is only in Matthew, none of the other gospels.

2. Mark–Servant of Jehovah [“Lord” 3 times here, 78 times in the other 3 gospels] [Isa. 42:1, Zech. 3:8] Thus No genealogy is given in Mark.

3. Luke– Son of Man [Luke records his childhood, his dealings with women, publicans and other key aspects showing his humanity] [Zech. 6:12, thus the human genealogy is given going back to Adam, (Lk. 3:23-38)]

4. John– Son of God [Zech. 4:2][“father”-121 times, only 66 times in the other 3 gospels. “My Father”-35 times only 18 times in the other 3 gospels, “only begotten” 4 times, none in other gospels]. The purpose of every chapter in John’s Gospel reveals Christ’s true identity.

“Son of God” in the Gospel of John–
John 1:14-18: only begotten Son
John 1:34-36: Son of God & Lamb of God
v. 41-Messiah
v. 49-RABBI, King of Israel

Thus, when we grasp how God’s Word employs the usage of Spica, the zemach branch, the complete 4D ministry of Jesus Christ unfolds for us. Spica in Virgo is also prominent in the celestial signs marking the birth of Christ, uniquely linked to the planet Jupiter. As seen @Try-God.com, the celestial mechanics starting Jupiter’s triple crowning of Regulus; its annual retrograde motion guided Jupiter’s stand still in the heavens for about six days near the ecliptic–Meridian crossing, mid-body in Virgo. This occurred in the celebration week of the Feast of Dedication in December of 2 BC. Also recall the kinship between the cycles of the Sun and Jupiter, and that it was the Sun mid-bodied, “clothing” Virgo for the 20-day period, from August 27th to September 15th, as one of the celestial prophecies marking the birth of the promised seed-Jesus Christ.

A noteworthy point here is Jupiter standing still in the heavens for about six days during the Hanukkah celebration, near the intersection of the ecliptic and the Meridian in Virgo. This emphasizes the path of Jupiter intersecting the ecliptic; the path of the Sun, pointing out a celestial kinship between Jupiter and the Sun, not to mention their kindred symbolism as the light of the world and the king planet. Earnest Martin states that: … while Jupiter was in its “standing still” position in retrograde motion over Bethlehem, the Sun was also “standing still.” All know that Dec. 25th is the usual period of the Winter Solstice. The word Solstice means “Sun stands still.” These stationary coincidences of Jupiter and the Sun are quite related, and would have appeared significant… ³

Malachi 4:2 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.

The word “arise” in verse 2, is not only used of the Sun and light generally, but it occurs with two of it’s derivatives in Isaiah 60:1-3, Jer. 23:5. As we have seen regarding Jer. 23:5, the sedeq planet Jupiter, is linked with the Messiah, Jesus Christ the righteous zemach-branch, and is one of five primary Old Testament prophecies pertaining to the Branch, the coming promised seed. However, with hese stationary reflections of Jupiter and the Sun, we have an additional Messianic-solar association. The reference of “arise” above, is intriguing when considered not only from the aspect of Jupiter standing still, in Virgo, but also referring to the setting time of the star Spica in Virgo, bearing the Hebrew star name “Al Zemach.” Thus it serves as a unique celestial marker of the moment of Christ’s birth, following on the heels of Sunset, with the Sun clothing Virgo, and the Moon at her feet, in the first moments of Tishri 1, [Sept. 11th, Annivesary of Creation] 3BC. Virgo provides the setting for both Jupiter standing still on the Meridian over Bethlehem, the birth-place of Jesus Christ, and the star-set of Spica between the Sun & Moon refering to the birth-time of Jesus Christ, at the beginning of New Year’s day, Tishri 1, on the sacred calendar of Israel. Even as these celestial signs that marked the birth of Christ were prominent to the Magi, so we have identified a set of similar signs following the Blood Moon Tetrad of 2014-2015, that may mark the return of Christ in the same way.

We have already considered the relationship between the Sun and the sedeq planet Jupiter apparent above, in light of the celestial kinship between these two heavenly bodies. Even as Jupiter stood still in retrograde motion in Virgo marking Christ’s birth, so we may also see it in retrograde motion in Virgo marking his victorious Second Coming! The Messianic-solar relationship is seen not only in Malachi 4:2 above, but also in Revelation 21, where Jesus Christ returns as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

Rev 21:22-23 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. [23] And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.

As the manifested glory of God on the level of the senses, Jesus Christ the only begotten Son of God, the light of the world, will illuminate the City of Righteousness, the New Jerusalem with his unified four dimensional ministry as the capstone and chief corner stone of the body of Christ. There will be no need of a Temple at that time, because even as the Magi were coming to pay respect to, or worship, the young King of the Judeans, in 2 BC, so will all Earth’s inhabitants in that day, for every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess to him, who is the head of the Church, the true Temple.
