On our last page before this one of our
"VOCABULARY" we were able to show exaggerated apocylyptic meanings to
ordinary words by knowing information about the ESSENES that recent scholars
have persisted in ignoring (because
to accept this information would likely cost them their jobs and cause a major
crisis in various churches). Now
we will launch into a new technique for the following pages. But a
technique long used and relied on by these same scholars. We will, of
course retain and use the knowledge we have gained about
the 144,000 (Essenes)
|
You have now either
rejected what I have
tried to teach you so far, or,
if you
agreed with it and learned it,
have
sufficient knowledge and
"vocabulary"
to continue reading and
understanding
the messages from
the 7 "angels" of
Revelation 14 and 18.
Only now, to the background I
have given
you of examples of how
the Essenes used
exaggerated apocalyptic
expressions and
ESSENE-SPEAK, a new
"vocabulary"
I will add the long-used,
reliable tool of
"PARALLELISM"
|
Revelation 14:6 "And I saw another
angel (another message, another
heavenly messenger) fly in the midst of heaven,
(in this context, Qumran, the "heaven of the Essenes") having
the everlasting
gospel (Essene rules, doctrines,
and teachings, not Paul's adaptations of these rules, that eliminated most
of them, allowing Christians to be "saved" because Jesus had
kept these rules) to preach to them that dwell on the earth, and to every
nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, 7 Saying with a loud
voice, (a "loud voice" first
raised by William Miller, and later by Seventh-day Adventists) Fear God,
and give glory to him; for the hour
of his judgment is come: and worship
him that made heaven,
and earth,
and the sea,
and the fountains
of waters."(these here have
Astrological meanings -- 4 Ages) |
Revelation 14:8 "And there
followed another angel, (another message, another
heavenly messenger, now the second in a series of 7, six of which are in
this chapter, and the seventh in chapter 18) saying, Babylon
(in this case not literal Babylon in Iraq, but the Vatican in Rome) is
fallen,
is fallen,
(the repetition of "fallen" represents 2 "millennial
days", or 2000 years) that great
city, (the "great" expands the
meaning to everyone the Vatican has influence over, including
Protestantism) because she made all nations drink of the wine
((the Catholic Mass)tof
the wrath
("wrath of God", hell, purgatory) of her
fornication."(the Church's dogma,
invention) |
|
|
Revelation 14:9 "And the third
angel (third message in this series) followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the
beast
(here Roman Catholicism))and his image,(the
Protestant Churches who are likewise Trinitarian and keep Sunday as their
weekly holy rest day) and receive his
mark
(Sunday worship) in his forehead,
(believe it to be God's blessed "Holy Day" in place of Saturday
the 7th day of the week), or in his hand,
work on Saturday-- |
10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of
God, which is poured
out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be
tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy
angels, and in the presence of the Lamb;
11 "And the
smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and
ever; and they have no
rest day nor night, who worship the
beast and his
image, and whosoever
recieveth the mark of his name. |
|
Revelation 14:12 "Here is the patience
(remnant, what is left) of the saints
(the Essenes): here are they (the Essenes) that keep the commandments
of God, and the faith
of Jesus (Essenism)."
|

Revelation 13, in this context a "beast" that has exercised power for

commandments of God -- to
the Essenes represented more than the 10 commandments, but included
also dietary requirements and feast days in addition to the weekly

waters", "earth" is the Age of Aries, from 2000
BC until the birth of Christ in 7 BC
ever and ever -- by
repetition, 2 millennial days, or an Age -- 2000 years
everlasting gospel --
Essene rules, doctrines,
and teachings, not Paul's adaptations of these rules, that eliminated most

with all its requirements, Jesus, even while living in India, kept the
Sabbath day and was an evangelist for Vegetarianism
fallen, is fallen -- by
repetition, represents 2 millennial days of the Essene Millennial Week
prophecy, identifying Roman Catholicism as the "Babylon"
referred to by the second angel of Revelation 14. No other religious
and political power reigned for almost 2000 years during the Age of
Pisces
forehead -- minds,
doctrines, beliefs (Jews wore phylacteries containing scripture on
their foreheads)
fountains of waters -- in
the series, "heaven, and earth, the sea, and the fountains of
waters", "fountains of waters" is the Age of
Aquarius, slated to begin in 2000 AD but instead begun in 1844 to
fulfill a promise to the Essenes in John 14:1-3. Begun for
the Jews in May of 1948.
great city -- the "great" expands the
meaning to everyone the Vatican has influence over, including
Protestantism

the Qumran monastery, "heaven" to the Essenes, secondarily,

raised by William Miller, and later by Seventh-day Adventists
mark (of the beast) -- the
two major identifying doctrines forced on Christianity by the Roman

until the year 2000 or 2001. But shortened because of the Jewish
holocaust
tormented with fire and brimstone
-- the Catholic doctrines of hell and
purgatory spelled out in detail -- also a reference to homosexual and
pedophilic priests using Sodom as an example
wine -- the
Catholic Mass, "bread" is not added because it has so many
other meanings
wine of the wrath of God -- the
Catholic doctrines of hell and purgatory have been used to control the
ignorant and superstitious for 2000 years
NOTE that without
knowing how the Essenes distort word-meanings and how they lived and
what they believed the reader cannot really know that the Qumran
Essenes were the most dedicated and stringent Seventh-day
Sabbath-keepers of that Age. And that they were total
vegetarians. Such people can and will torment themselves and
others with all sorts of weird and unusual identifications of the
"mark of the beast" and the "image of the beast"
and see every new world leader as a potential "Antichrist"
intent on either severing their heads or throwing them into prison.
|
I have found the
PARALLELISM of
ISAIAH
66
to be the major pattern for
true prophecy
that avoids the pitfalls
and distortions
the Essenes introduced into
New
Testament prophetic
texts such as
Matt. 34, Mark 13, and Luke
22 -
and especially Revelation
(all chapters)
ISAIAH
66
|
Isaiah 66:1
"Thus saith the
Lord, the heaven
is my throne, and the earth
is my footstool; where is the house
that ye build unto me? and where
is the place of my rest?
2 For all those
things hath my hand made, and all those
things have been, saith the Lord:
but to this man
will I look, even to him
that is poor
and of a contrite
spirit, and trembleth at my
word." |
(Essene) Vocabulary of Isa. 66:1,2
contrite spirit -- to the
Essenes, their "spirit", the "holy" spirit, that spirit or
force that allowed them to be always correct and make prophecies that were
fulfilled
earth -- this earth, the
earth inhabited by the Essenes
heaven -- the third heaven,
in which were the sun, moon, and stars, which Astrologers, such as the Essenes,
could "read" to make their prophecies
him, man -- primarily, the
Essenes, and secondarily, their Messiah, Jesus Christ, identified by the phrase
"my word"
house -- 2 meanings,
literal and symbolic -- the Jerusalem temple as Yahweh's "house", and
the sky full of stars as the Creator God's "house" -- half or more of
the Essenes saw Yahweh as a false god, and they all scoffed at the idea the
Jerusalem temple was a proper "house" for the real God (who was for
all practical purposes, unknowable)
my word -- an Essene code
title for Jesus Christ
poor -- an Essene code
title for themselves, the Essenes, derived from their requirement to give
everything they owned to the sect when they joined
rest -- the Seventh-day
Sabbath (weekly) and the Seventh Millennium (prophetic)
the Lord -- not Yahweh, but
the real Creator God, who revealed Himself to some degree by Astrology
those things -- the
constellations of the Zodiac
CONCLUSION:
the Essenes wrote or heavily edited Isaiah 66
|

Isaiah 66:3
"He that killeth an Ox ("bull"
in some newer translations) is as
if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb (baby
ram), as if he cut off a dog's
neck; he that offereth an oblation (non-animal offering), as if he
offered swine's
blood (as Israel was forced to do
by the Syrian Antiochus Epiphanes); he that burneth incense, as if he
blessed an idol.
Yea, they have chosen their own
ways, and their soul delighteth in
their abominations.
4 I
will also choose their delusions,
and will bring their
fears upon them; because when I
called, none did answer; when I
spake,
they
did not hear: but they
did evil before mine eyes, and
chose that in which I
delighted not." |
(Essene) Vocabulary of Isa. 66:3,4
abominations -- actions
and beliefs the Creator God disapproves of
baby ram (lamb) -- represents
the Zodiac figure for the Age of Aries, 2000 BC to 7 BC (birth of Christ)
bull (ox) -- represents
the Zodiac figure for the Age of Taurus, 4000 BC to 2000 BC. This
further use of Astrology confirms that the Essenes wrote or heavily edited
Isaiah 66
delusions -- in this
context, the Christian gospel, (Pauline gospel) as an excuse for
wrong-doing. In theology "Justification by Faith" when
devoid of good works.
fears -- any number of
fears and the general terror and mental distress and poor planning brought
on by listening to false prophets promoting alternative and varied scenerios
for a literal end of the world preceded by 7 years of
"Tribulation", a rule by a literal Antichrist, and on and on and
on.
idol -- represents the
Zodiac figure for the Age of Aquarius, 2000 AD to 3000 AD. The Essenes,
using Jesus' prophecies, shortened the Age of Pisces, to end early in 1844,
1948, 1988, and 1993-1994. But finally on Sept. 11, 2001. We are now
in the Age of Aquarius.
I -- the virtually
unknown Creator God, not Yahweh
I called -- this Creator
God "calls" through Essene doctrines and fulfilled prophecies
I delighted not -- evil
actions bring forth evil results, the "delusion" is that church
rituals can change this and reward those who do evil with everlasting life
I spake -- rather
specifically, this refers to the atomic explosion over Hiroshima on Aug. 6, 1945
at 8:16 AM, since this event is explained by virtually everyone as not being
related to Bible prophecy, "none did hear"
own ways -- mankind is
addicted to selfish acts with little or no regard to the fate of others, and of
mankind
swine's blood -- represents
the Zodiac figure for the Age of Pisces, 7 BC to 2000 AD. The
Essenes were beginning as Israel was forced to worship swine on their
altars by the Syrian Antiochus Epiphanes. The Romans, their
foreign masters in the time of Jesus loved swine's flesh and offered it to
their pagan gods. And the Essene prophets knew that swine's flesh
would be popular food for Dark Ages and Middle Ages' Christians. Also
it is a major staple food in the "Bible Belt" of the American
south. Fishes are the usual Zodiac symbol for the Age
of Pisces, but is not used here because "Fishes" generally have a
good meaning, not bad, as is here desired.
they -- the vast
majority of modern Christians
they did evil -- evil
actions and unhealthful diets indulged in under a hypocritical veneer of
"saved" Christianity
CONCLUSION:
the Essenes promoted the Christian "gospel" as a temporary
"delusion", but saw that it would provide an excuse to "do
evil". These evil actions would bring upon Christians what they
"feared".

Isaiah 66:5
"Hear the word of
the Lord, ye that tremble at his
word; Your brethren
that hated you, that cast you out for my
name's sake, said, Let the Lord
be glorified: but he
shall appear to your
joy, and
they shall be ashamed. |
(Essene) Vocabulary of Isa. 66:5
ashamed -- surprised,
puzzled, disappointed, their delusion evaporated by the events of May, 1948
as Israel becomes a nation once again
he shall appear -- Christ
shall appear in Israel (to Jews), not in the skies all around the world (to
Christians)
brethren which hated you -- Christians,
who during the Middle Ages, began persecuting Jews and killed them in the
Inquisition
Lord -- Jesus Christ,
the Essene Messiah from 29 AD to 33 AD -- not Yahweh -- here a shortening of
"word of the Lord that begins the verse
word of the Lord, -- his word -- phrases
that represented Jesus Christ in the Essene "Gospel Pesher" in New
Testament Acts of the Apostles by Luke, who knew and used this "Gospel
Pesher" repeatedly and freely. Examples: Acts 4:31 "and
they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word
of God with boldness," means Jesus was physically
present at this meeting late in 33 AD, after Pentecost. And in Acts 6:7,
still later in 33 AD, six months after Jesus' crucifixion "the word
of God increased" shows Jesus had a child (a daughter,
Demaris), with Mary Magdalene. Again in Acts 12:24 "But the word
of God grew and multipled." secretly indicated a son was
born to Jesus and Mary Magdalene in 36 AD, close to the time of the death of
King Herod Agrippa. Similarly, use of the phrase "word
of God" in other places throughout Acts shows Jesus to be
physically present at other meetings and events.
my name's sake -- not
Yahweh's name sake, but Jesus' name sake -- even Adolph Hitler used Jesus an
an excuse to kill Jews, -- Jews were called "Christ-killers".
they (shall be ashamed) -- the
Christians of the world (as well as the Arabs)
your joy -- the joy of
Israel after the UN mandate that gave them a country, a homeland, once more
CONCLUSION:
once again, the exact correspondence with events that transpired in the 20th
century, as well as the use of exact "Gospel Pesher" phrases
indicates the Essenes either wrote or heavily edited Isaiah 66.
|
Isaiah 66:6
"A voice of noise
from the city, a voice from the temple,
a voice of the Lord
that rendereth recompence to his
enemies. 7 Before she
travailed,
she brought
forth; before her pain
came, she was delivered of a
man child. 8 Who hath heard such a
thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth bring forth in
one day?
or shall a nation be
born at once? for as soon as Zion
travailed, she brought forth her
children. " |
(Essene) Vocabulary of Isa. 66:6-8
a man child -- refers
back to the birth of Jesus Christ in 7 BC, (or forward to 7 BC if you
believe Isaiah wrote this) emphasizing that Jesus was a Jew
a nation be born -- "birth"
of Israel on May 14, 15 - 1948
her children -- Israelis
of the new nation of Israel, formerly called the "Children of
Israel"
his enemies -- first,
the Nazi - Japanese alliance that brought on World War II and almost
exterminated all Jews by the holocaust, -- later the Arab nations that
surround Israel, who all attacked the 1-day-old nation immediately after it
declared itself a nation
Lord -- still Jesus
Christ as defined in the previous verse, shortened from "word of
God", "word of the Lord"
one day -- May 14, 15
-- 1948
pain -- labor pains,
birth pains
she brought forth -- like
a woman having a baby
she travailed -- likewise
temple -- the sky, the
Zodiac ages, the "temple" of verses 1-3 of this chapter -- the
message means "it was the appointed time for this to happen"
voice of noise from the city -- the
explosion of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, Japan, on August 6, 1945,
at 8:16 AM -- this ended the war in which Jews were being exterminated and
allowed the UN to mandate a new nation for Israel
Zion travaileth -- one
of the rare instances in prophecy when an exact word or name is used -- The
"Zionists" were the ones lobbying Great Britain and the UN to
bring these events about
CONCLUSION:
the explosion of the atomic bomb on August 6, 1945 at 8:16 AM gives the exact
day, hour, (and minute) that God (the God of Fate) delivered Israel as
promised in the Old Testament. Jesus is here as the "word of
God" claiming some credit for this event, and three years later, for
the mandate that made Israel a nation.

Isaiah 66:9
"Shall I bring to birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the
Lord: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy God.
10 Rejoice thee with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that
love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye who mourn for
her: 11 That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her
consolations; that ye may milk out, and be delighted with the
abundance of her glory. 12 For thus saith the Lord, Behold I will
extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles, like
a flowing stream; then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon her
sides, and be dandled upon her knees. 13 As one whom his mother
comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in
Jerusalem. " Requires
no interpretation.
Isaiah 66:14 "And when you see this,
your heart shalll rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb:
and the hand of the Lord shall be known toward his
servants,
(Pentecostal and Evangelical Christians of the USA, and the United
States government) and his indignation towards his
enemies.((the Arab nations
that attacked Israel.)
Isaiah 66:15 "For, behold, the Lord
will come
with fire, and with his chariots
like a wirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames
of fire. 16 For by fire
and by his sword will the Lord
plead with all flesh: and the slain
of the Lord shall be
many."
Isaiah 66:17 "They that sanctify
themselves, and purify
themselves in the gardens behind one
tree in the midst, eating swine's
flesh, and the abomination,
and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the Lord.
Isaiah 66:18 "For I know their works
and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and
tongues; and
they shall come, and see my glory.
Isaiah 66:19 "And I will set a
sign among them, and I will send
those who escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud,
that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off, that
have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall
declare my glory among the Gentiles.
Isaiah 66:20 "And they shall bring
all your
brethren for an offering unto the
Lord out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters,
and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my
holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the
Lord, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel
into the house of the Lord.
Isaiah 66:21 "And I will
also take of them for priests
and for Levites, saith the
Lord."
Isaiah 66:22 "For as the new
heavens and the new
earth, which I will make, shall
remain before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seed and your name
remain. 23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new
moon to another, and from one sabbath
to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the
Lord."
Isaiah 66:24 "And they shall go
forth, and look upon the carcasses of the men
who
have transgressed against me: for
their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire
be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring
unto all flesh."
|

not world-wide
his servants -- Israelis
of the new nation of Israel, formerly called the "Children of
Israel"
his enemies -- first,
the Nazi - Japanese alliance that brought on World War II and almost
exterminated all Jews by the holocaust, -- later the Arab nations that

declared itself a nation

Christ as defined in the previous verse, shortened from "word of
God", "word of the Lord"

making pilgrimages to Israel, the land that Jesus now calls his own
your brethren -- the
Christians, once enemies of the Jews (verse 5) but later worshipping in
Israel with the Jews (verse 20)
CONCLUSION:
When Isaiah 66 is used as the pattern to which Matt. 24, Mark 13, and Luke
22 is compared, a lot of misconceptions and foolish predictions are cleared
up. One must, however CORRECT apparent discrepancies in favor of
the Isaiah 66 "model", not try to correct Isaiah 66 to match what
we think we see in the other texts. Jesus does not come as
we thought he would in any of these texts. In Isaiah 66, we
come to visit him in Jerusalem!
