Cox (12-06-2017) The missing 165 years in traditional Jewish chronology from Cyrus to Alexander is explained HERE, in Appendix G, of Archbishop James Ussher’s Annals of the World. In a short version, the rabbis realized that king Josiah found the lost book of Moses and began a reform, which led his people to observe every word in the book including the sabbaticals and jubilees. This actually occurred in 623, but the rabbis removed 165 years and dated it as 458 BC (623-165=458). The temple burned 35 years later, in 588/87 BC, but their date is 423/22 BC as in TABLE 1. This alleged jubilee in 458 would also place other jubilees in 34, 83 and 132 AD (Bar Kochba revolt), and the http://code251.com/ Assyrian captivity would be in a jubilee 98 years before 458, that is, in 556 (458+98=556). The captivity was actually 165 years earlier, in 721 (556+165=721). The kings of Israel lasted from 797 to 556 (=241 years) instead of 931 to 721 (=210 years) (241-210 = 31 years of overlapping kings). TABLE 1.

Jewish Jewish Related Topics Note that the jubilees in 1407, 623 and 574 BC begin with entering the Promised Land. These do not align with jubilees in 458, 409 BC and in 34, 83 and 132 AD, which allegedly begin with the Introduction to Code 251 Jewish date of Josiah’s reform after finding the lost book of Moses (allegedly in 458 BC). Conspiracy The 62 years omitted before Abraham Against 251 and the 165 Years omitted before Alexander Years Equal 227 Missing Years Jewish Timeline Besides these two deletions, the Hebrew calendar considers the kings of Israel to all be sequential, Creation 3761 BC without any overlapping. Upon further research, it is found that the kings overlapped 31 years. This Age of the means 227 years minus 31 equals 196 years (four jubilees). This means creation was in 3957 BC instead Universe of 3761 BC, and 165 + 31 = 196 years. The Next World As explained HERE, the chronology preserved by Ptolemy of Egypt (which includes the Summary of 165 years) can hardly be doubted, but Rabbi Simon Schwab says that, if the 165 years were Code 251 included, it would reveal that, “we are much closer to the end of the 6th Millennium than we had surmised.” During the past 2000 years, dates set for the Messiah’s arrival have been associated Decoding the with jubilees as explained HERE. Oracles The 165 missing years from Cyrus to Alexander plus the 62 years subtracted between CODE 666 Abraham and his father equals 227 total years subtracted (165 + 62 = 227). Since the rabbis did Jews Preserved not subtract the overlapping 31 years of the kings of Israel, this added 31 years to the total: (227 the Oracles? minus 31 = 196 years) (4x49) (4 jubilees). Rabbi Code This would move the date of creation from 3761 backward to 3957 BC (3761 + 196 = 3957). Jubilees After 458 BC? Three Views Based upon a jubilee in 458, the Messiah was expected to intervene during a jubilee year, in on the Exodus 34, 83 or 132 AD, to remove foreign occupiers and to allow the Jews to return to their land that Date of Creation Joshua had given their ancestors regardless of where the Jews had been driven away. Over the Myths About past 2,000 years, over ten dates for the coming of the Messiah have been associated with the Three Temples jubilee according to various calculations (as explained HERE). As they say, figures don’t lie, but Samaritan Code liars figure. Proselytes also to Return? Hebrew Roots Myopia Over the centuries (perhaps from mandates for Jews to reform and become Christian) many became “cryptic Jews”, that is, Christian converts still retaining their ancestral heritage. Jewish The Third Temple Code religion is based upon Jewish history. The Jewish Messianic Movements evolved into Hebrew Roots Movements, Christian Numbers Messianic Movements, and Christian Hebrew Roots Movements, phony priesthoods, phony Unveiled in genealogies and phony predictions based upon their phony chronologies. Visions Often descendants or proselytes are the leaders, which perpetuate their ideology about their Messiah becoming a World Ruler in a new, restored temple, with a restored Levite priesthood, restored sacrificial offerings, restored three different tithes and restored fund raising on holy days. They ignore the fulfillment of the holy days from Passover to Tabernacles from the exodus to the temple, during the Old Covenant and minimize the fulfillment of the holy days from Passover to Tabernacles during the New Covenant, in the first century. To avoid offending Christian proselytes, they search Ezekiel 40, Zechariah 14 and other scriptures to prove there will be a third temple while overlooking the verses about having sacrifices. The idea that Christianity is only temporary until their Messiah is considered as insider information and not widely broadcast to avoid the impression they are returning to the old covenant. It would be like Abraham preferring his bondservant, Hagar instead of Sarah, who was born free. This analogy is used in Galatians 4:22-31 to explain that Hagar and her son, Ishmael, represent the old covenant and Jerusalem below, which is in bondage. Sarah and her son, Isaac, represent Jerusalem above, the Higher Realm, which is free of bondage. Christian Bondage? Christian missionaries are also proselytes, but they are to offer freedom, not bondage. Abraham’s wife, Sarah, represented the new covenant and the Zion Above, the Higher Realm, which has little significance to those married to Zion below (Gal 4:22-31). Notes on Table 1 Obviously, the rabbinical schools subtracted 60 years between Abraham and his father. After restoring the 60 years, the Masoreh text places Abraham’s birth 2008 years (251 x 8) after Adam, and 2259 (251 x 9) in the Samaritan text. Moreover, the rabbis have Abraham being called (in Ur) at the age of 70 instead of age 72, that is, 430 years before the exodus (Ex 12:41). After restoring the 72 years, this would mean that Abraham was called in Haran when he was age 75 (Gen 12:4) when his father died at the age of 205 (Gen 11:32; Acts 7:1-4), that is, 427 years before the exodus, that is, 427 years after the flood (352 to Abraham’s birth + 75 = 427). Ishmael was born when Abraham was 86 (Gen 16:16) and was 13 when Abraham was 99 (Gen 17:24-25) and was 14 when Isaac was born, when Abraham was 100 (Gen 17:17). This would mean that, 400 years before the exodus (Ex 15:13), Abraham was 102; Ishmael was 16, and Isaac was 2.

  • Female Property Ownership and Status in Classical and Hellenistic Sparta
    Female Property Ownership and Status in Classical and Hellenistic Sparta Stephen Hodkinson University of Manchester 1. Introduction The image of the liberated Spartiate woman, exempt from (at least some of) the social and behavioral controls which circumscribed the lives of her counterparts in other Greek poleis, has excited or horrified the imagination of commentators both ancient and modern.1 This image of liberation has sometimes carried with it the idea that women in Sparta exercised an unaccustomed influence over both domestic and political affairs.2 The source of that influence is ascribed by certain ancient writers, such as Euripides (Andromache 147-53, 211) and Aristotle (Politics 1269b12-1270a34), to female control over significant amounts of property. The male-centered perspectives of ancient writers, along with the well-known phenomenon of the “Spartan mirage” (the compound of distorted reality and sheer imaginative fiction regarding the character of Spartan society which is reflected in our overwhelmingly non-Spartan sources) mean that we must treat ancient images of women with caution. Nevertheless, ancient perceptions of their position as significant holders of property have been affirmed in recent modern studies.3 The issue at the heart of my paper is to what extent female property-holding really did translate into enhanced status and influence. In Sections 2-4 of this paper I shall approach this question from three main angles. What was the status of female possession of property, and what power did women have directly to manage and make use of their property? What impact did actual or potential ownership of property by Spartiate women have upon their status and influence? And what role did female property-ownership and status, as a collective phenomenon, play within the crisis of Spartiate society? First, however, in view of the inter-disciplinary audience of this volume, it is necessary to a give a brief outline of the historical context of my discussion.

    Names of botanical genera inspired by mythology Iliana Ilieva * University of Forestry, Sofia, Bulgaria. GSC Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2021, 14(03), 008–018 Publication history: Received on 16 January 2021; revised on 15 February 2021; accepted on 17 February 2021 Article DOI: https://doi.org/10.30574/gscbps.2021.14.3.0050 Abstract The present article is a part of the project "Linguistic structure of binomial botanical denominations". It explores the denominations of botanical genera that originate from the names of different mythological characters – deities, heroes as well as some gods’ attributes. The examined names are picked based on “Conspectus of the Bulgarian vascular flora”, Sofia, 2012. The names of the plants are arranged in alphabetical order. Beside each Latin name is indicated its English common name and the family that the particular genus belongs to. The article examines the etymology of each name, adding a short account of the myth based on which the name itself is created. An index of ancient authors at the end of the article includes the writers whose works have been used to clarify the etymology of botanical genera names. Keywords: Botanical genera names; Etymology; Mythology 1. Introduction The present research is a part of the larger project "Linguistic structure of binomial botanical denominations", based on “Conspectus of the Bulgarian vascular flora”, Sofia, 2012 [1].

  • Seven Wonders Time:​ 30 Minutes Level:​ Beginner
    Lesson Five: Seven Wonders Time:​ 30 minutes Level:​ Beginner Intro The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World were architectural feats recorded by ancient historians, writers and scholars in the western world - the list is limited geographically to the mediterranean, the centre of ancient western civilization. The only remaining wonder in the present day is the Great Pyramid of Giza, which is also the oldest. The rest have all been destroyed by weather, war or nature. Today we’re going to learn a little bit about each one: The Great Pyramid of Giza The pyramids are, in many ways, the most famous ancient wonder of the world. Whether that’s attributed to their mystery, incredible feat of construction, or their sole survival (out of all of the ancient wonders) into the modern era, all marvel at their magnificence. The Great Pyramid of Giza was constructed around 2589-2566 B.C. during the reign of Pharaoh Khufu. It stood about 147 meters tall and its base was approximately 230 meters in length. The second pyramid was created for Khufu’s son, Pharaoh Khafre, in 2558-2532 B.C. Within the pyramid’s complex at Giza was the largest statue in the world at that time, known as the Great Sphinx (a man’s head on a lion’s body), standing 240 feet long and 66 feet tall. The last pyramid was built around 2532-2503 B.C. for Khafre’s son, Pharaoh Menkaure. It was the shortest of the three pyramids in this ancient wonder, standing at only 216 feet tall. It took over 2.3 million blocks of limestone, 100,000 men, and 20 years to construct the greatest architectural achievement in the ancient world.

Visitors are invited to explore the rich artistic heritage of northern Greece, many of whose treasures are still little known to the general public, due to the relatively recent nature of archaeological discoveries in this area. It was not until 1977, when several royal sepulchral monuments were unearthed at Vergina, among them the unopened tomb of Philip II, Alexander the Great’s father, that the full archaeological potential of this region was realized. Further excavations at this prestigious site, now identified with Aegae, the first capital of ancient Macedonia, resulted in a number of other important discoveries, including a puzzling burial site revealed in 2008, which will in all likelihood entail revisions in our knowledge of ancient history. With shrewd political skill, ancient Macedonia’s rulers, of whom Alexander the Great remains the best known, orchestrated the rise of Macedon from a small kingdom into one which came to dominate the entire Hellenic world, before defeating the Persian Empire and conquering lands as far away as India.

  • Democritus (460-370 BC) on Embryology, Anatomy and Pediatrics: the Unknown Aspects of the Greek Atomic Scientist
    IJAE Vol. 117, n. 3: 199-204, 2012 ITALIAN JOURNAL OF ANATOMY AND EMBRYOLOGY Research Article: History Of Anatomy and Embryology Democritus (460-370 BC) on Embryology, Anatomy and Pediatrics: the unknown aspects of the Greek atomic scientist Gregory Tsoucalas, Marianna Karamanou*, Antonis A. Kousoulis, George Androutsos History of Medicine Department, Medical School, University of Athens, Greece Submitted January 29, 2012; accepted June 17, 2012 Abstract Democritus was born in Abdera, Thrace, in the 5th century BC. He travelled to the East while being the student of famous philosophers. His philosophical ideas and the establishment of particles, “the atoms”, gave him a leading position in world history. However, his medical knowledge was vast especially in the field of pediatric pharmacology. Numerous are also the reports of his passion for anatomy. Democritus’ views regarding the issue of Human Nature and Anatomy are depicted in a letter he sent to Hippocrates of Kos. He died in old age, possi- bly of infection after having totally neglected his personal hygiene. Keywords Democritus; philosophy; atom; embryology; pediatrics; anatomy. Note: for ancient authors, citations in the text do not include the year of publication of the original writings; the reference list reports the year of publication of the critical edition which was used for this study. Introductory note and brief biography Democritus of Igisistratos or Athinocratos or Damasippos (Precope, 1961; Marcov- ich, 1999) was born in Abdera, Thrace, Greece, around the 80th Olympic Games, 460- 457 BC (Herodotus; Strabo) or earlier (Anaksagoras Klazomenios). He visited Egypt where, in the sanctuary of Memphis, he was initiated to Jewish spirituality by a sage woman named Maria.

A Small Hoard of Alexander Tetradrachms from Batman (Turkey) by DAVID MARTÍNEZ CHICO and ALBERTO GONZÁLEZ GARCÍA L O N D O N THE ROYAL NUMISMATIC SOCIETY 2 0 1 8 ANCIENT 285 COIN HOARDS 2018 ANCIENT HOARDS 1. A Small Hoard of Alexander Tetradrachms from Batman (Turkey) DAVID MARTÍNEZ CHICO and ALBERTO GONZÁLEZ GARCÍA 1 [PLATES 21-22] Introduction In January 2018 a Turkish collector informed us of a small hoard of 15 Alexander the Great tetradrachms (none in the name of Philip III), found by a farmer on the surface of private land on the outskirts of Batman in south-east Turkey, probably in 2017. No container was recorded; if there had been one, it must have been of perishable material, like a leather or cloth bag. The state of preservation of the pieces is good, although many show some wear. Some of the tetradrachms showed their original dark patina at the time when they were photographed and weighed. Some are half-cleaned, others completely cleaned, since the finder wanted to sell the coins quickly. We suggest below that the hoard could be related to the demobilized soldiers of Craterus and/or the First War of the Diadochi (321 BC). Alexander hoards from Anatolia of the late fourth century BC are of particular interest because of their scarcity and historical importance. Despite the difficulties in information retrieval, the Turkish collector said that the hoard was complete. We cannot of course guarantee this, and the group could perhaps be only a part of the total found.
