00:54
the ages
00:55
is our good friend derek gilbert derek
00:58
so good to see you always good to see
01:00
you i always love your insights and
01:03
research and you have
01:04
a pocket full of them today
01:08
in in regards to something that um
01:13
has to do with
01:18
our understanding of
01:21
the mount of olives mount hermon
01:27
even even incorporating caesarea
01:29
philippi
01:31
uh pan’s temple and
01:35
i was on with joan hunter as a good
01:37
friend yesterday and
01:38
we were talking about fear and i said
01:40
you know people
01:42
loosely use the word pandemic
01:45
and pan demonian and
01:48
panic and pan asea
01:52
and they probably in the vocabulary the
01:54
last
01:55
year or 14 months or so in regards to
01:58
covet 19 have invoked the name of the
02:01
false god pan
02:03
more than they have invoked the name of
02:05
jesus
02:06
and this is the veneration
02:10
of a false god when you repeat his name
02:14
over and over and over again don’t have
02:17
an understanding of its
02:18
origin that this was a false god and
02:22
this was literally jesus standing at
02:25
what he says are you going to stand
02:26
before you at the gates of hell
02:27
this was one of the locations that
02:31
as we look across the earth at what
02:33
referred to as the gates of hell
02:36
he says the gates of hell will not
02:38
prevail and on this rock i will build my
02:40
church
02:41
and he was talking to peter and uh this
02:44
was caesarea philippi
02:46
and this is a significant
02:51
part of we have no
02:55
discernment of
02:58
vocabulary and language and
03:02
the words we speak are
03:06
you know i would have to say jesus
03:10
150 times a day more often
03:15
in this coronavirus conversation to
03:19
outweigh
03:19
how many times i’ve honored
03:22
subliminally pan the half-man half-goat
03:27
god of the
03:30
greco-roman empire yeah it’s uh
03:33
this is one of the things that uh the
03:36
research that sharon and i have been
03:37
doing and i want to be clear that we
03:38
don’t take credit for any great wisdom
03:40
on our own part
03:41
anything that we’ve gotten right we
03:42
credit to the lord because
03:44
it’s only through his grace and his
03:46
spirit has granted us a
03:47
modicum of wisdom that we have found
03:50
anything at all
03:51
and i think god must have a sense of
03:52
humor that he’s taken an old top 40
03:54
radio disc jockey and he’s got him
03:55
writing books on theology now
03:57
based on the cosmology of the ancient
03:59
mesopotamians which is
04:01
you know mind-boggling to me but uh it
04:05
i i guess i inherited enough of my
04:06
father’s uh uh
04:08
engineer’s brain to want to understand
04:11
how things work
04:12
and uh unlike my sister who actually you
04:15
know
04:15
designs tire molds for michelin and now
04:18
runs their help center for their
04:19
computer network for their corporate uh
04:21
entity you know all over the world um
04:24
i look at the spirit realm and the
04:26
supernatural to try to take it apart
04:28
and figure out how little pieces fit
04:30
together so god has been very good in
04:32
showing us this
04:32
and a lot of it started with an
04:35
interview that i heard
04:36
more than 10 years ago with a good
04:39
gentleman has become a good friend of
04:40
ours now dr judd burton
04:42
who heads up the institute of biblical
04:44
anthropology
04:45
down in texas and he is an archaeologist
04:48
by training and he did his dissertation
04:50
on pinayas or banayas as it’s called now
04:53
which is the grotto of pan at caesarea
04:55
philippi which is where as you said
04:57
where jesus
04:58
talked with the disciples and uh asked
05:01
them
05:02
who men who do people say that i am and
05:04
some say john the baptist some say
05:06
elijah some say this that
05:08
then he turned to peter said who do you
05:10
say that i am
05:11
jesus chose that’s that location
05:13
specifically and so
05:15
judd in talking with another friend of
05:17
ours dr michael bennett on
05:18
his uh late lamented radio program
05:21
called future quake
05:22
explained that this location was chosen
05:24
specifically
05:26
for two reasons first of all he was in
05:28
front of mount hermon which is a nine
05:30
thousand two hundred foot peak it is
05:32
clearly far and away the tallest
05:34
mountain in the levant which is uh
05:36
uh jordan israel lebanon
05:39
far and away the tallest in the jordan
05:41
rift valley and it was the mountain
05:43
where the canaanites the ancient
05:44
amorites and the
05:46
horrorites the hurrians the everyone who
05:49
lived in that area believed that
05:50
the creator god called l not to be
05:53
confused with el
05:54
shaddai you know god almighty but l of
05:57
the canaanites their creator god
05:59
held court on the summit of mount hermon
06:01
with his consort ashrae
06:03
whose epithet was dragon lady
06:05
interestingly enough and
06:07
their 70 sons which represented the gods
06:09
of all the nations
06:10
well jesus at the foot of that mountain
06:12
said on this rock
06:14
i will build my church he was not
06:17
referring to
06:18
petros or peter simon peter
06:21
he was referring to this nine thousand
06:23
two hundred foot mountain right behind
06:25
him
06:25
those references in the old testament
06:27
scattered throughout
06:28
here and there references to hermong and
06:31
bashan
06:32
are there because that area was believed
06:35
to be the domain of the fallen
06:37
jews understood what their neighbors
06:39
believed the prophets and apostles
06:40
certainly understood it jesus knew it
06:43
and so he took the disciples to caesarea
06:45
philippi and said on this rock i will
06:47
build my church and the gates of hell
06:49
which is the grotto of pan this cave
06:51
that used to be
06:53
the origin point of the jordan river
06:56
earthquakes have changed that in the
06:57
years since now it comes out further
06:58
away from the mountain but
07:00
it was believed that that was literally
07:01
the entrance to the netherworld the
07:03
gates of hell which are right over here
07:05
shall not prevail against it and i know
07:06
you’ve been there and we’ve been blessed
07:08
to be there twice now and both times
07:10
i’ve been able to
07:12
explain the significance of that
07:15
event of jesus confirming to peter that
07:18
yes i
07:18
am the messiah right there in front of
07:21
the grotto of pan
07:23
and people who’ve never heard this
07:24
before like i did more than 10 years ago
07:26
when i heard judd burton explain this to
07:28
michael bennett like
07:30
what you mean god knew that the
07:33
because we’ve all been raised believing
07:35
that these pagan gods of the ancient
07:37
world
07:38
were imaginary they were like the
07:39
imaginary friends who guided the great
07:41
civilizations of the ancient world the
07:44
egyptians and the assyrians and the
07:45
babylonians and the sumerians and the
07:47
romans and the
07:48
they all had these this pantheon of
07:50
imaginary creatures that
07:52
caused them to do all these things but
07:54
then jesus
07:56
right there did this like
07:59
okay that’s a paradigm shift right there
08:02
and you can see it in the faces of
08:03
people when they go
08:04
there and you explain this to them and
08:06
you’re able to point to this huge cave
08:09
entrance right here where the pagans
08:11
used to offer their sacrifices and throw
08:13
them into the water and if they sank
08:14
they believed the gods had accepted the
08:16
sacrifice and it was taken down to the
08:17
netherworld
08:20
suddenly the light dawns that changes
08:22
everything in fact dr burton says
08:24
when you are confronted by people who
08:27
have not yet accepted this paradigm and
08:29
say why do you spend so much time
08:30
talking about
08:32
the giants from before the flood how do
08:34
we know they were real why are they
08:35
important why do they matter to us today
08:37
as christians
08:38
judd’s answer is two words caesarea
08:40
philippi
08:42
because jesus did that right there and
08:44
then
08:45
shortly thereafter the gospels tell us
08:47
he climbed a very high mountain and that
08:49
can only be mount vermont because it’s
08:51
the only very high mountain in the
08:52
vicinity of caesarea philippi
08:55
and that’s where the transfiguration
08:56
took place jesus
08:58
was in a sense sending a flare into the
09:01
spirit realm
09:02
declaring his divinity saying yes i am
09:05
the prophesied one
09:06
i am that i am
09:09
what are you going to do about it and
09:12
elijah and moses
09:13
appeared there with him peter james and
09:15
john were
09:16
freaked out peter wanted to build booths
09:18
which is why i think the feast of
09:19
tabernacles another reason i think the
09:21
feast of tabernacles is so important but
09:23
i digress and from there jesus then made
09:26
his way to jerusalem to complete his
09:28
mission which the fallen realm could not
09:30
help
09:31
but assist in they were so infuriated
09:34
or confused by into thinking that
09:36
because he was fully human as well as
09:38
fully god hey
09:39
if we kill him now like in the parable
09:42
of the evil tenants
09:43
if we kill the son of the owner of the
09:46
vineyard
09:48
we’ll get his inheritance they thought
09:50
if they sent jesus to the cross
09:53
they would fulfill the mission now
09:55
interestingly you mentioned the mount of
09:56
olives and this is
09:57
some of the research that’s coming from
09:59
my forthcoming book saturn’s reign
10:02
jesus spent the last week of his life
10:05
alternating between
10:06
the temple and the mount of olives he
10:08
was crucified
10:10
on the mount of olives that’s what the
10:11
research suggests
10:13
uh he raised lazarus on the mount of
10:15
olives that final week
10:17
he uh was betrayed on
10:20
the garden of gethsemane on the mount of
10:21
olives his burial tomb on the mount of
10:23
olives so he descended into the
10:25
netherworld according to first peter 3
10:27
verses 19 and 20
10:29
i believe that first peter 3 i think
10:30
it’s around 19 and 20 anyway where he
10:32
proclaimed to the spirits
10:34
in prison and scholars have looked at
10:36
that say no these are the
10:38
spirits who who disobeyed
10:42
when god’s patience was waiting in the
10:44
days of noah in other words he’s talking
10:45
about
10:46
the sons of god from genesis chapter six
10:48
the ones who
10:49
uh created the nephilim through their
10:51
unions their illicit unions with human
10:52
women
10:53
so again you’ve got this reference back
10:56
to mount hermon because that’s
10:57
where it was believed they descended and
10:59
made their mutual pact to corrupt
11:01
humanity
11:02
jesus descended to proclaim his victory
11:05
to them
11:06
from the mount of olives he returned his
11:09
resurrection was
11:11
declared at the tomb on the mount of
11:13
olives and according to zechariah 14 he
11:15
will return
11:17
to the mount of olives that’s a very
11:19
significant location and i didn’t really
11:21
understand that until recently when i
11:22
started putting all these pieces
11:23
together and
11:25
the connection between hormone the
11:26
amount of olives and other locations in
11:28
the jordan valley
11:30
very very significant you know these are
11:32
the reasons why we encourage people to
11:34
go
11:35
on these trips with us to israel to
11:37
experience this to see it
11:39
to be in that place and see the bible
11:41
come alive
11:42
in the physical location and be able to
11:44
connect the dots
11:46
you can’t read that on a flat piece of
11:47
paper and unless you have
11:51
the last book of the bible which is the
11:53
least read
11:54
book of the bible and that’s the book of
11:56
maps
11:58
then you don’t have any real reference
12:01
point
12:02
as to the physical locations and so when
12:06
you plot out
12:07
journeys and pilgrimages and you look at
12:10
where bethany was
12:11
and why this was the headquarters if you
12:15
will of the last four days of jesus life
12:18
and what the locale was
12:22
and when you go into the old city
12:26
and you are navigating from
12:30
as you go from the garden of gethsemane
12:32
and you cross
12:33
the street over you get on the bus and
12:35
you cross over and
12:37
enter the old city and you’re kind of
12:41
walking around and you’re you’re taking
12:43
this journey
12:45
uh the the stations of the cross
12:48
and you wind up back at the garden tomb
12:52
you’ve kind of lost geographical
12:55
geopositioning you kind of don’t realize
12:58
exactly where you are and you tend to
13:01
think that you’re still
13:02
in the old city you’ve just gone outside
13:05
a particular wall
13:06
well that’s not the case you’ve
13:09
circumvented all that
13:11
and returned back uh to this place on
13:14
the mount of olives and so
13:16
people don’t connect that they seem to
13:17
think it’s all related to jerusalem
13:20
or city of david or all those things
13:24
which also talks about
13:25
the fact that
13:29
the church of the holy sepulchre which
13:32
is
13:32
inside the city walls inside the city
13:35
gates
13:36
would be the burial ground of jesus
13:39
doesn’t add up it doesn’t make sense
13:43
because he was not a clean
13:46
sacrifice and so the levitical system
13:49
would not permit him to be sacrificed
13:52
within the walls of jerusalem
13:54
nothing unclean and we look at him as
13:57
the beautiful lamb without blemish or
13:59
spot but in the end he wore
14:02
sin upon him he was defiled by
14:06
our very sin and his
14:09
exit although his entrance was
14:12
the eastern gate the golden gate the
14:15
gate that the king would arrive in his
14:17
exit was through the sheepgate he was
14:20
now
14:21
just another one of the lambs
14:24
who would be sacrificed on passover and
14:27
so
14:28
when we connect all that and you step
14:31
through all that and you make that
14:33
journey
14:33
and you stop in those locations they’re
14:36
specifically
14:37
designed so that you can see
14:41
nimrod’s castle you can see pan’s grotto
14:45
you can see
14:47
how all this and who the
14:50
um the
14:55
sons and and and daughters and and the
14:58
false gods of of these
15:02
um fallen angels
15:05
the mighty men of renown who
15:11
were the creators if you will
15:14
of the demonic who were
15:17
looking travelers they were looking for
15:20
places
15:20
of occupancy they traveled looking for
15:24
human host they were disembodied and so
15:29
they were
15:29
spirit and we see that throughout the
15:32
scriptures and we
15:34
understand it when jesus talks to the
15:38
man who’s got a legion
15:41
of of uh demons in him
15:44
that they’re looking for send us
15:47
into they’re looking for another host
15:50
they don’t have a physical presence
15:55
there was a movie years ago denzel
15:57
washington that was really quite
16:00
profound it was called fallen right yes
16:03
and it’s probably and and they used
16:07
zazel as the reference point
16:10
and it was probably one of the most
16:13
biblically explicit
16:18
depictions of how spirits
16:21
transfer from one person to another
16:25
the demonic looking for
16:28
a human host and it was just through
16:31
simple contact
16:33
it was moving from one to another and
16:36
ultimately he was able to defeat it
16:39
by destroying
16:43
the final host and
16:46
there was nowhere else for it to go well
16:48
almost because it went into the cat and
16:50
the cat ran off and that was said to say
16:52
yeah
16:52
almost got me but not quite right so uh
16:55
yeah
16:55
but that just proves my my belief that
16:58
cats are evil but uh
17:00
i i joke of course my mother has uh had
17:02
cats for years so uh
17:04
but you’re right it is an interesting
17:06
look at that uh that that conflict and
17:09
the fact that these entities
17:10
uh demonic entities which are the
17:12
spirits of the nephilim destroyed in the
17:13
flood that was understood by the early
17:15
church
17:15
until the time of augustine when he
17:17
popularized a belief that
17:19
well no that that whole thing was just
17:21
allegory and that the whole sons of seth
17:23
siri
17:24
theory took over and has been the
17:25
dominant belief among christian
17:27
theologians for the last 1600 years
17:29
that was not the belief of the early
17:30
church it was not the belief of the jews
17:32
of the second temple period and that’s
17:33
clear in the septuagint translation of
17:35
the bible which was completed about 300
17:37
years before the birth of jesus
17:39
they understood the connection between
17:42
the titans of greek religion the old
17:45
gods were confined to the netherworld
17:46
and the sons of god of genesis chapter 6
17:48
who likewise were in the underworld and
17:52
i’m going to argue in saturn’s reign
17:54
that there’s a possibility that we have
17:56
misunderstood
17:58
isaiah chapter 14 for uh many many years
18:01
it’s
18:02
commonly believed and i still hold that
18:04
this is the probable explanation that
18:06
isaiah 14 ezekiel 28 which are parallel
18:08
chapters
18:09
describe the fall of lucifer satan from
18:12
the garden
18:14
but there is a uh a strange
18:18
um contradiction there that we we have
18:21
not yet reconciled which is that in
18:22
genesis chapter three that rebel is
18:24
called the nakash which is a
18:26
word that’s used interchangeably with
18:27
serpent and we see in
18:29
isaiah and in numbers that phrase used
18:32
interchangeably
18:33
nakash with sarah which is the singular
18:36
form of seraphim
18:37
we get a description of the seraphim in
18:39
isaiah chapter 6 when he gets his throne
18:41
room vision
18:42
and they’re very different from the
18:43
caribbean the cherubim
18:45
which are described in uh in ezekiel 28
18:48
rather this rebel is described as the
18:50
guardian cherub
18:51
who covered so what do we make of that
18:54
is he a
18:55
serpentine brilliant serpentine
18:58
appearance like the seraphim a burning
19:00
one or is he this uh
19:02
four-faced uh bull-like sphinx
19:05
which is how the cherubim are described
19:06
by ezekiel in ezekiel chapters 1 and 10.
19:11
i would suggest that this that isaiah 14
19:15
because it also makes reference to later
19:18
in isaiah 14 makes reference to
19:20
asher or the assyrian but asher was the
19:23
name of an entity
19:25
the chief god of the assyrians who was
19:27
equated with enlil
19:29
and thus el and dagon same entity by
19:32
different names
19:33
and saturn and kronos all the same
19:35
entity but by different names and that
19:38
this
19:39
in the context of isaiah 14 may be the
19:41
entity that’s being referred to here
19:44
and that also the king of babylon who is
19:46
referenced in
19:47
the early part of isaiah 14 isaiah 14
19:50
verse 4 the king of babylon that’s
19:52
babel could also be the king of babel
19:55
because the term babel
19:57
refers to the tower and the location of
20:00
the tower back in genesis
December 11, 2021 at 9:16 am
20:00
the tower back in genesis
20:01
chapter 10 9-10
20:04
so i think this may be a coded reference
20:07
to this particular entity in other words
20:09
the leader of the sons of god who
20:10
descended to mount hermon
20:12
back in genesis 6. this could be a
20:14
reference to
20:15
shemi yaza who was thrown down to the
20:18
netherworld shale is stirred up to meet
20:19
you
20:20
when you come isaiah 14 verse 9 it
20:21
rouses the rephaim
20:24
translated shades in our english bibles
20:25
to greet you all who are leaders of the
20:27
earth
20:28
satan was cast out of heaven but he
20:31
wasn’t necessarily cast out to
20:33
shale we read in the book of job that
20:35
he’s still walking to and fro in the
20:36
earth
20:38
he still has access to heaven not so
20:41
this entity shemija and of course we
20:45
know from greek and roman mythology that
20:46
saturn kronos
20:48
was confined to the netherworld the
20:50
ancient mesopotamian myths about
20:52
enlil show that later in his career when
20:54
marduk the
20:55
chief god of babylon took over the
20:57
headship of the pantheon there enloe was
20:59
confined to the netherworld
21:01
the the hurrian and hittite equivalent
21:02
kumarbi was overthrown by the storm god
21:05
their version of zeus jupiter bale
21:08
and kumarbi was confined to the
21:10
netherworld
21:12
where he would have been greeted by
21:14
these shades the spirits of the children
21:16
that he and his colleagues engendered
21:18
when they rebelled against god back in
21:19
genesis chapter six
21:21
um so i i think there’s a possibility
21:24
here that we
21:25
are seeing something in isaiah 14 or
21:27
there may be something in isaiah 14 that
21:29
we haven’t seen
21:30
yet that this entity saturn kronos
21:33
l enlil dagan etc is the one who was
21:36
cast out in isaiah 14 and ezekiel 28
21:39
that eliminates the confusion are we
21:41
talking about satan as an akash or as a
21:43
cherub is he a seraph or is he a cherub
21:46
well there’s no conflict because of
21:48
ezekiel 28 is talking about a
21:50
cherub that could be shemi yaza and
21:53
his other fellow sons of god
21:56
i’m not going to die in this theological
21:58
hill i’m just proposing this as an
22:00
alternate explanation to kick around
22:01
and maybe others who are smarter than me
22:03
can come up with some additional
22:05
points of view on this but i do think
22:08
it’s interesting
22:09
that this entity l when we
22:12
look at the neighbors of ancient israel
22:15
and study what they believed about their
22:17
chief gods
22:19
we know that um the ammonites who lived
22:22
east of the jordan river south of the
22:26
region of bashan that was formerly
22:28
controlled by ogh of bashan their chief
22:30
god was called
22:30
milcom and a scholar did a study of the
22:34
uh
22:34
the the names used uh by the ammonites
22:38
in in the records scholars call this the
22:40
onomasticon
22:41
just a fancy word for study of names and
22:45
in the ancient world it was common to
22:46
include the name of a deity
22:48
in personal names they called it the
22:50
theophoric element
22:52
in the names we see it in uh say
22:53
jeremiah hezeki
22:55
yeah micah l daniel
23:00
in the ammonite pantheon even though
23:02
milcom
23:03
was their chief god the most common
23:07
theophoric element or god name was l
23:10
and again not l as in l god of the bible
23:13
but l of the canaanites right
23:15
his conclusion was that milcom was
23:18
simply an
23:19
epithet or a nickname or a title applied
23:22
to
23:23
el nilcon essentially an alternate form
23:26
of melech meaning
23:27
king so they were simply calling their
23:30
chief god
23:31
king and likewise the
23:34
derogatory form of that name molech
23:38
was another term for el
23:42
well solomon in the the generation after
23:45
david
23:46
after building the temple was led by his
23:49
foreign wives to build a number of high
23:50
places including a high place for the
23:52
god of the ammonites
23:54
milcom on the mount of olives
23:57
so he built a high place for this king
24:00
god
24:02
east of the temple visible probably
24:05
from the gate that messiah will re-enter
24:08
in when he comes back
24:12
and that led the uh that led the the
24:15
rabbis and the
24:17
the the priests to refer to the mount of
24:19
olives as the mount of corruption or the
24:20
mount of the
24:22
heat i don’t know if i’m pronouncing the
24:24
hebrew word correctly but
24:26
uh essentially mount of the destroyer
24:28
right
24:29
and i think this then adds a little bit
24:32
of uh
24:33
evidence to the identity of a mysterious
24:35
character in revelation chapter nine
24:37
that being apollyon or abaddon
24:40
the destroyer you know it’s interesting
24:43
when you talk about isaiah 14 and we
24:46
take a look at at the offspring
24:50
these are the demonic the demons who are
24:52
held
24:53
captive and then unleashed to torment
24:56
men
24:57
for a period of time
25:01
the the the the shield opens up and
25:05
when you think about these numerics of
25:09
how many fell with with
25:12
satan uh everybody kicks around
25:14
one-third but that’s not in the bible
25:17
the the number’s not in the bible it’s
25:18
not many and
25:20
you know it’s how many angels can fit on
25:21
the head of a pen it’s it’s many
25:24
but we also know that there was a number
25:26
of
25:28
those that were confined who would not
25:32
be released until
25:34
a future time to torment men but there
25:37
was still
25:38
the free-flowing demonic activity of
25:41
those that were
25:42
not confined so we know it’s a reduced
25:44
number
25:45
we know that it’s worldwide
25:49
we see the demonic activity we see
25:53
deliverances we see that activity
25:56
we see in mental disorders
25:59
we see in so many different ways
26:02
manifesting itself
26:04
that we know that there’s enough out
26:06
there to torment
26:07
men that satan’s
26:10
heavily at work the time of satan’s
26:14
final battle with michael where he is
26:17
finally kicked out is
26:21
described but we’re not given a timeline
26:24
for it and the only reference point we
26:27
really have is in luke 10 18
26:30
where jesus says i saw satan fall like
26:33
lightning from heaven
26:35
and then he goes on to give us the
26:38
authority
26:39
and reinstates our authority when
26:41
dominion which we lost in the garden
26:43
he re-establishes that that we as
26:46
believers in him
26:47
now are empowered by the power and the
26:50
anointing of the holy spirit our faith
26:51
in
26:52
jesus the command we have over god’s
26:54
word even goes on to say we’ll do even
26:56
greater
26:57
than he did i can’t even imagine what
26:59
that might
27:00
look like but then i also go to the
27:02
first day of creation
27:04
where god separated the light from the
27:06
darkness and
27:08
was that the point of
27:11
calling the light good and jesus was the
27:15
light of the world was this the first
27:17
foray into creating division between
27:19
late and darkness was this
27:21
the first foray into the darkness
27:25
being satan exiting
27:28
heaven but not permanently kicked out
27:30
but his
27:31
fall because we really have never come
27:34
up with a great explanation
27:36
as to what the entities were that god
27:40
created that were light and dark they
27:42
weren’t the sun and the moon that was
27:44
specifically created
27:46
later on so when we search for these
27:50
reference points
27:52
and we take a look at even things like
27:54
the
27:55
wall of flies in the plague
27:58
that divided goshen from egypt this
28:01
would be a
28:02
black wall a straight line wall not a
28:05
single fly
28:06
on the goshen side so you have to see
28:10
this huge divide this wall of darkness
28:14
when we see them getting ready for the
28:16
crossing of the red sea
28:18
and the pillar of cloud goes behind them
28:21
and he bathes the israelites in light
28:23
and he
28:24
bathes the egyptians in darkness we see
28:28
another clearing clear
28:30
division exactly that same separation of
28:33
light and dark that we see in the
28:34
beginning
28:35
and it talks about the angel of the lord
28:38
or the angel of god which is always the
28:40
pre-incarnate yeshua
28:42
so if if we add all these
28:45
up it becomes logical to conclude
28:48
that that original divide that
28:50
separation of good and evil
28:52
light and dark that god was his first
28:55
act
28:57
the first command of the bible let there
29:00
be light
29:02
was the declaration of
29:05
the releasing of
29:08
the preincarnate yeshua into the world
29:11
at the same time
29:13
that satan is cast from heaven
29:18
but this is his fall this is not his
29:20
imminent final battle with
29:22
michael this is the beginning of
29:27
addressing this chaos that was
29:30
not
29:34
god doesn’t create chaos so it would
29:36
explain
29:37
that that the spirit would hover over
29:41
the deep and then god would say so the
29:44
spirit had to fall
29:45
first and we see that pattern again when
29:48
the spirit falls on messiah
29:50
and then god speaks so there’s a pattern
29:54
the spirit falls and then god speaks
29:58
and it it’s paralleled
30:02
god doesn’t speak until the spirit falls
30:04
the spirit like a dove
30:06
lit upon messiah and then god spoke
30:09
so we’re seeing this new creation we’re
30:11
seeing creation and new creation
30:14
all occur at the same time and the
30:15
parallels are very very
30:18
specific we don’t really know the
30:21
timeline
30:22
it wouldn’t surprise me if it was a
30:24
period of 40 days
30:27
because it just calls in the beginning
30:30
there’s no reference point to that time
30:32
frame but
30:33
every other time frame had 40 in it and
30:36
every other time frame was
30:37
and jesus was immediately honestly taken
30:40
up out of the water
30:41
taken into this quote on case quote
30:44
temptation uh this testing uh
30:47
and 40 has been the number of testing so
30:50
that would not surprise
30:51
me in
30:55
informed desumptive
30:58
conclusion drawing or inference if you
31:01
would
31:02
that these are kind of the patterns of
31:04
god
31:06
but people are so unfamiliar with the
31:08
locations
31:10
nimrod’s castle being one of them and
31:13
what took place there and why it was
31:15
geographically located
31:17
in the place that it was and
31:20
how important mount hermon was how
31:23
important that
31:24
elijah and moses
31:28
these were the two established in
31:32
scripture
31:32
moses said one will come after me god
31:34
will appoint a prophet
31:36
like me who will come after me
31:39
and basically he creates a scenario that
31:42
you are to do
31:43
what he teaches you or to
31:46
follow him or you’ll be cut off from
31:49
your people
31:50
well when you think about the statement
31:52
follow me
31:54
there’s no prophet throughout the bible
31:56
that ever spoke the words follow me
31:58
but yet those were two words significant
32:00
enough to motivate peter
32:03
and matthew to get up from what they
32:06
were doing
32:07
recognizing that this was the
32:09
proclamation made in the prophecy
32:12
because moses
32:13
was the prophet of israel that
32:16
that this was who moses was talking
32:19
about
32:20
he’s the one then elijah was to come to
32:24
announce
32:25
the coming of messiah under biblical
32:29
mandate bill
32:30
law by the testimony of two or more
32:32
witnesses something had to be
32:33
established and so therefore it had to
32:35
be
32:36
two witnesses there with messiah
32:40
both of which predicted the coming of
32:42
messiah
32:44
and are the two definitive characters
32:46
that’s why at passover we set
32:48
the table for elijah to come
32:52
and expect him to come to announce uh
32:56
the coming of messiah and so none of
32:58
these things are accidental they’re not
33:00
not coincidental and people tend to
33:03
not fit them neatly together because
33:07
in this period of time as you and i have
33:09
talked about in this inter-testamental
33:11
period
33:12
the greek influence is so strong
33:16
the greek philosophy and mythiology
33:18
mythology is
33:19
so strong and the assimilation is so
33:22
great that it it actually
33:26
permeates society and those
33:29
like the essenes who bore witness to
33:32
this
33:33
and then saw the formation of the
33:35
pharisees and those who were
33:39
the teachers of the law and ignoring
33:43
all these other truths
33:46
and trying to establish their
33:49
authority on earth and ignoring
33:52
this spiritual battle that was taking
33:54
place between the greco-roman
33:57
gods and the god of abraham isaac and
34:01
jacob
34:02
they packed up and pulled away and went
34:04
off on their own and said
34:06
we want nothing to do with you right
34:09
you’re you’re defiled
34:10
by your own entertainment by your own
34:14
you’re under this spell and you’re
34:16
creating these
34:17
false gods and you’re calling them
34:20
yourself
34:21
and that was the big issue that jesus
34:24
had
34:24
we’re talking with derek gilbert
34:28
as we have so enjoyed talking to
34:32
over the course of all these years
34:34
prolific author
34:36
extraordinary researcher just like his
34:38
wife
34:39
an extraordinary researcher and we
34:42
certainly look forward to the release of
34:44
the new book
34:46
but the latest book is giant gods and
34:48
dragons
34:49
exposing the fallen realm and the plot
34:51
to ignite the final war of the ages
34:54
and you can get all of derek’s books at

or at gilberthouse.org
35:00
we’re taking a short break and when we
35:02
come back we’ll return to the subject
35:05
of the mount of olives and even some
35:08
discussion about the temple
35:10
mount and some of the things that have
35:11
been happening in
35:13
recent days of the recording of
35:17
muslims dancing on the temple mount and
35:20
breaking the laws of the temple mountain
35:22
the move
35:23
to advance the ownership of clear
35:26
title and jurisdiction of the temple
35:29
mount to
35:30
israel is a precursor
35:34
to the building of the
35:38
tribulation temple the third temple and
35:41
that has great significance as well
35:44
we’re going to take a short break

40:28
of revealing the truth where we cover
40:29
the headlines the heart lines
40:31
and biblical truth i’m your host
40:32
messianic rabbi eric walker
40:34
enjoying a delightful conversation with
40:36
my good friend derek gilbert
40:38
author of all those books you see on the
40:40
screen bad moon rising in last class the
40:42
titans the earth stands still
40:45
veneration and his new
40:48
latest book giants gods and dragons
40:51
exposing the fallen realm and the plot
40:53
to ignite the final war of the ages
40:55
and his soon-to-be-published book
40:59
so they are cranking it out and if you
41:01
haven’t followed sharon gilbert’s
41:03
uh books or series that are uh
41:07
taking i i i see nothing but rave
41:10
reviews
41:11
about sharon gilbert and the following
41:14
that she has that are
41:15
faithful and loyal to her as an author
41:18
and the two of you are certainly a match
41:21
made in heaven
41:23
amen that
41:26
i know your father said you married up
41:28
and uh
41:30
you know i think that the two of you
41:33
as researchers and the depth you go to
41:37
are really quite unique in
41:40
the body of messiah and i have the
41:43
utmost respect for what you do and what
41:45
you bring to the table
41:48
we don’t we don’t spend enough time
41:51
as our good friend mike heiser talks
41:54
about in that inner testamental period
41:56
trying to understand the context
41:58
of what life was like during those 400
42:01
years
42:02
it’s easy to take the written word uh
42:04
ending in second chronicles in my bible
42:07
and in malachi in your bible
42:09
and analyzing that and looking at that
42:11
and then you’ve got this 400 year gap
42:13
and it’s as if we’ve gone into this
42:16
this uh chasm um
42:20
of of we don’t know what happened and
42:23
nobody tells us what happened and so we
42:25
have to wait until we get to the book of
42:26
matthew to
42:28
hear the story and people don’t realize
42:31
that what took place
42:32
was geopolitical and social
42:36
and mythological and had to do with gods
42:39
and other gods and the fight
42:42
to maintain the remnant
42:46
that were not being overrun what brought
42:49
the maccabees
42:50
into being to rise up
42:54
against this desecration of the temple
42:58
was a divine appointment and
43:01
yet the book of enoch and other
43:05
of the inter-testamental period writings
43:07
have been completely
43:08
discounted either as satanic or as
43:14
inaccurate and yes the truth is they’re
43:18
not canonized but
43:19
neither is the talmud neither neither is
43:24
strong’s concordance uh it’s not
43:28
canonized
43:29
so you know when we look and we want to
43:31
understand
43:32
the geopolitical
43:35
context the what was going on at the
43:38
time we
43:39
have to understand that 400 years
43:42
between the last prophetic voice
43:45
and the coming of messiah and if we
43:48
don’t we don’t understand
43:52
the starting point it’s like it’s like
43:54
missing
43:56
uh four or five volumes
43:59
of a book series and
44:02
you finish in book six and you’re
44:05
starting book 11
44:07
and you know what happened in between
44:11
right you have this huge gap of
44:13
understanding and then people like you
44:15
and i come along and start talking about
44:16
these kind of things and they go well
44:19
uh you completely lost us we don’t
44:21
understand but it’s right there
44:23
in the middle of that period that all
44:25
this is taking place
44:27
and it’s what they’re fighting against
44:30
the israelites are still
44:31
fighting against this these are their
44:33
sworn enemies
44:34
because these were the false gods and
44:38
we were warned about the false gods and
44:41
assimilation
44:42
all the way through the text even into
44:44
the modern day
44:47
assimilation is something that’s frowned
44:49
upon within the jewish world
44:51
that’s one of the reasons that sharon
44:53
and i um
44:54
following the publication of a couple of
44:56
books by a friend of ours doug woodward
44:58
who’s written two volumes of a book
45:01
called rebooting
45:02
the bible in which he compares the
45:05
english translations that we have to the
45:07
septuagint which was the
45:09
translation from hebrew into greek
45:11
completed about the year 300
45:13
bc so about 300 years before jesus birth
45:16
these
45:16
70 scholars which is where we get the
45:18
name septuagint
45:20
working in alexandria egypt under the
45:22
direction of the
45:23
greek king of egypt ptolemy
45:26
who wanted a version of the hebrew
45:29
scriptures that
45:30
greek speakers and greek readers could
45:34
could understand commissioned these
45:36
jewish scholars to translate their
45:38
hebrew
45:39
scriptures into into greek and so we’ve
45:42
got
45:43
a time stamp on that edition of
45:46
the bible copies of that still exist
45:48
have been translated into english
45:50
there is the uh the brenton translation
45:53
which is
45:53
uh in the public domain your viewers can
45:56
find it online and
45:57
and search through it there there’s been
46:00
a more modern translation by
46:01
faith life um the publisher is the logo
46:04
study bible which is a more modern
46:06
english rendering of the
46:07
the older text but the point that’s
46:09
relevant here and what doug was
46:12
was was trying to communicate in his
46:13
books and and does so very well
46:16
rebooting the bible is that there are
46:18
some key differences between
46:20
the septuagint bible this
46:23
which was the bible that would have been
46:24
used of the scriptures that were
46:25
available
46:27
to the uh to the apostles in the first
46:29
century a.d
46:31
and the masoretic hebrew text
46:34
which is what our english translations
46:36
are based on right
46:37
and the masoretes didn’t complete their
46:39
bible uh didn’t complete their
46:41
translations or their
46:42
scriptures their copies until about the
46:44
10th century a.d
46:46
so we’re talking about 1200 years
46:48
difference between the septuagint and
46:50
the masoretic text
46:51
on which our english translations are
46:53
based and so when you compare
46:55
anything in the old testament from our
46:58
bibles to the
46:59
septuagint translation look for
47:02
some some key differences here in fact i
47:04
was thinking about one that i should
47:05
have mentioned earlier which
47:07
i think is really intriguing is that in
47:09
ezekiel chapter 28
47:11
which is again is that that chapter that
47:14
probably refers to the casting out of
47:16
the rebel from eden
47:19
um and it uh it makes reference to
47:21
placing you
47:23
uh let me see if i can find the the
47:25
scripture here very quickly you were an
47:26
anointed guardian cherub i placed you
47:28
you were on the holy mountain of god in
47:30
the midst of the stones of fire you
47:32
walked
47:33
and by the way speaking of another
47:34
inter-testamental text you mentioned the
47:36
book of enoch
47:37
dr michael heiser points out that the
47:39
description in
47:41
the book of enoch of the the angels who
47:44
sinned who were being punished
47:45
being described in the netherworld as
47:47
burning mountains
47:48
suggest that the stones of fire here in
47:50
ezekiel 28 are not the asteroid belt
47:54
this is not the breakup of the planet
47:56
rahab into the asteroid belt
47:58
these are the entities the other
47:59
supernatural entities that were with
48:00
adam and eve in the garden
48:02
in the midst of the stones of fire you
48:04
walked but the septuagint translation
48:06
reads this from the day you were created
48:08
i placed you
48:09
with the cherub in the holy mountain of
48:12
god you came to be in the middle of
48:14
fiery stones
48:15
and then verse 16 reads because of the
48:17
abundance of your merchandise you filled
48:18
your treasuries with lawnessness
48:20
lawlessness and you were sinned and were
48:22
wounded from the mountain of god
48:24
and the cherub led you out of the middle
48:27
of the fiery stones in other words
48:29
this is not the cherub who sinned he was
48:32
there with the guardian sheriff who
48:34
covered who was responsible for kicking
48:36
him out so
48:37
that’s a key difference there and
48:40
doug has pointed out that the septuagint
48:42
translation in a number of places
48:44
de-emphasizes the existence of other
48:46
supernatural
48:47
entities or rather the masoretic text
48:50
over the septuagint
48:51
the septuagint acknowledges the
48:53
existence of these other
48:55
spirit beings if you will like the
48:57
cherubim makes reference to
48:59
the giants and the titans in certain
49:01
phrases where they’ve been translated
49:02
out
49:03
and into our english bibles as shades or
49:06
mighty men and and so on so yeah it’s
49:09
it’s worth
49:10
looking at that septuagint to get an
49:12
idea of what was in the minds of jewish
49:14
religious scholars during this
49:16
inter-testamental period this period
49:17
between
49:18
uh well second chronicles in your bible
49:20
malachi and our bible
49:22
uh and uh the beginning of the uh uh the
49:25
new testament
49:26
so it’s so fascinating so
49:30
extraordinarily exciting that
49:34
we are able to uncover this one of the
49:35
beautiful parts about the fact that the
49:37
septuagint was translated into greek by
49:39
jewish scholars allowed us to come up
49:42
with a complete hebrew bible
49:44
which then took the same methodology
49:48
that they used to convert the hebrew to
49:50
greek to apply the greek
49:52
hebrew of the new testament so that we
49:55
have an entire
49:56
uh complete hebrew bible
50:00
which includes and using
50:03
the hebrew text of revelation
50:07
as opposed to the greek text of
50:09
revelation we’re able to recapture
50:12
the imagery and the linguistic
50:16
tools that
50:19
the jewish mind of john
50:22
was employing and the 500 references to
50:26
the old testament become much clearer
50:28
in the hebrew translation of it than it
50:30
does in the greek translation because
50:33
what he does is he uses flawed greek
50:38
semantically to kind of make little
50:42
those little stickers with pointers on
50:43
it and and
50:45
he because he’s so fluent in greek that
50:47
when he makes an
50:48
error he makes it on purpose to say you
50:51
need to look somewhere
50:52
disappointing you got to go look
50:54
somewhere else don’t look here
50:56
look somewhere else for the real answer
50:58
for what i’m telling you
50:59
and he used it as a as as pointers well
51:03
when you get
51:04
into the complete hebrew text
51:07
of the entirety of the bible we don’t
51:10
have to employ those
51:12
those images because they’re already
51:13
there they’re already there in the name
51:16
of
51:16
leviathan they’re already there in nehes
51:19
they’re already
51:19
there in the plagues of exodus
51:24
chapter 12 and so 10-12 so
51:27
it becomes easier for the
51:31
jewish scholar to examine
51:34
the new testament in a hebrew context
51:37
because
51:38
it were such a picturesque these are
51:41
word pictures every word
51:43
and every letter has a picture to it and
51:45
it’s it’s
51:46
uh although it was the first
51:50
language of the time it was a second
51:53
language to the hebrew mind it’s still
51:56
a second language to the hebrew mind and
51:59
so
52:00
things like um uh
52:04
you know does the bible say there has to
52:06
be a third temple
52:09
well there’s no line in the bible that
52:10
says that there has to be
52:12
a third temple okay but
52:16
the restoration of jewish worship
52:18
implies
52:20
that you can’t have jewish worship
52:21
unless you have at least an altar
52:23
which is where zerubbabel started so if
52:26
you have an
52:26
altar there’s gonna be a covering over
52:28
the altar and
52:29
that itself would be a third temple
52:33
whether it’s ornate whether or not it’s
52:35
completed whether or not it’s
52:37
it’s anything more than a hippa anything
52:40
more than a canopy
52:42
it’s going to be considered to be the
52:44
third temple regardless of
52:46
what the iteration of it does if it’s
52:48
gold it’s great
52:49
if it’s got beautiful rooms it’s great
52:52
it was just an
52:52
altar and a covering and a labra bowl
52:56
and a menorah and table show bread and
53:00
an altar of incense
53:01
it’s the temple so the concept of naos
53:05
your body is the temple of the lord
53:07
would say that well
53:09
you could still have the defilement and
53:11
the abomination of desolation we would
53:12
happen to have
53:14
have to happen to everybody and
53:18
that’s less natural to me than
53:21
uh having a physical
53:24
spot but unfortunately you and i have
53:27
run out of time
53:29
but i will get to see you again uh
53:32
on may the 10th and so i am so looking
53:35
forward
53:35
to that time together and uh just pray
53:38
blessings on you
53:40
on the new studios there our
53:44
best regards to tom and the entire team
53:47
at skywatch
53:48
and as the future changes we will
53:54
be in touch and talk about uh some
53:56
transitional thoughts and some new ideas
53:59
and uh look for ways to continue to
54:01
partner
54:02
in the future because these are kingdom
54:05
friendships that uh were not birthed by
54:07
accident
54:08
uh amen there’s there are connections
54:10
here that are
54:12
long-lasting and enduring and so we
54:14
appreciate that
54:15
amen blessings to you jason and your
54:18
ministry look forward to
54:19
talking with you again on may 10 god
54:21
bless you my friend we’re going to take
54:22
a short break and when we come back
54:24
