In the dark shadows, in thewhite cold. Fearlessly we search for knowledge
new and old. We drink thestrong spirits and read the ancient tongs.
The order of the Abercast. Weare the brave and the bold, the

(00:35):
Abercast a coult history, conspiracy andviolence. That's me. I'm your host,

(01:21):
John Towers, as the Evercast.We're gonna squeeze this one in just
under the wire for the upcoming eclipse. This is something we've talked about at
length starting in twenty seventeen with thefirst eclipse here that we have been talking

(01:45):
about. The twenty seventeen eclipse andthe eclipse coming up on April eighth are
linked intrinsically, So we're gonna betalking a little bit about that link,
the twenty seventeen eclipse that link thiseclipse coming up. And then I got
a little something special just to puton top, a little cherry on the
top, if you will, alittle, uh, a little a little

(02:08):
dessert, but with the red heiferstuff that we were talking about and passover
stuff, and these are clips thatwe're in like this biblical prophecy like pressure
cooker. Uh so uh, I'mexcited. I'm excited for this step be

(02:29):
over done, done and over withand uh so we get a lot,
so let's just get through it,to it and through it. I do
have my vessel of the art herewith my weapon of mass distraction. The
formula for for a weapon of massdistraction, the gin g hod the second

(02:51):
ingredient to the ginger hod is.It's always just bottom shelf gin, the
like I want the gin that's inthe basement. The top shelf gin is
no good. On top of that, I do have this little if you
know, you know, it feelslike everybody knows. So let's get this

(03:13):
party started and roll right into thisBible Archaeology dot org is where we're gonna
be starting this evening. Come,young people, sit around the campfire and
listen to your favorite drunk uncle tellyou about the end of the world.

(03:38):
I'm not drunk yet. We juststarted. Give me some time, so
this, like I said, isgonna be addressing. Talking about ex pounding.
Adding some contexts in the twenty seventeeneclipse. Although there are two to

(04:01):
five solar eclipses visible from some placeon earthly anty given year, the total
solar eclipse predicted for August twenty first, twenty seventeen. If you recall last
episode, I told you I wassleeping in a car when this was going
down on that year has attracted moreattention than any eclipse in recent memory.

(04:23):
During this event, the Moon's umbrait its complete shadow. First falling on
the Pacific Ocean, we'll make landfalland Oregon, and then traverse the North
American continent before darkening the ocean offof South Carolina one and a half hours
later, and during this time,virtually all of North America will be partially

(04:46):
darkened by the pre Pennumbria, whichis the partial shadow of this eclipse.
Do the great international attention devoted tothis eclipse, there has been expected spate
of unreasonable speculation about its being anend to event. Without advocating any such

(05:09):
speculation, we hear at our BibleArchaeology have thought that the subject of the
eclipse does have some relevance to eventsin the b Bule. This is a
subject of the article by Associate RogerYoung in the spring of twenty thirteen issue

(05:35):
of Bible and Spade, which isreproduced below, How lunar eclipses in solar
eclipses shed light on Biblical events inthe closing days of his life, Herod
the Great was presented with the crisiscalled the Golden Eagle incident. Herod had

(05:56):
placed the golden eagle over the entranceto the temple. Though he professed that
it was an offering dedicated to Adelad, it was regarded as a desecration of
the temple by two rabbis, Matthiasand Judas, who provoked a group of
more than forty individuals into pulling downthe eagle. Herod's soldiers captured and executed

(06:18):
many of the participants. Matthias andJudas were burned alive. After relating this
sword incident, Josephus commented that thenight after Matthias and Judas were executed by
burning, there was an eclipse ofthe moon antiquities seven six two through four,

(06:41):
seven one nine to one sixty seven. These are the only references to
lunar eclipse and all of the writing. Of all of the writings of Josephus,
Perhaps a modern historian would not havementioned it, judging that an astronomer
event like an eclipse is independent ofthe activities of a man unless it is

(07:04):
perceived, unless it proceeded. Someimportant occasions, such as a battle,
and so influenced the decision such aswhether or not to go to bar.
The ancient world, however, aneclipse was regarded as an omen or portent
whenever it happened. For Josephus,the eclipse in the night after Herod put

(07:29):
to death the two protesters a signof displeasure from God. This is shown
by the fact that Josephus describes immediatelyafter the mention of the eclipse, Herod's
physical suffering, a suffering from whichhe could find no relief until his death.
At some time between the eclipse passover, the eclipses passover, the antiquity

(08:00):
passage. The eclipse and Hair's tormentsignifies the same thing, God's solemn judgment
on Herod after he put to deathindividuals more righteous than himself. You know,
when I was talking about the biblicalprophecy pressure cooker bit, I should
have also mentioned Gog and Magog,China, Russia, Russia, Russia,

(08:22):
China, China, China. Imean, I just my mind's wandering a
little bit on Russia. Secretary ofState blinking just openly said, Hey,
we are gonna get Ukraine in theNATO. We're gonna do it. It's

(08:45):
like they're rushing for it lair.They're trying to start it crazy. Okay,
So Jonah and the Burr Sigill eclipse, another famous eclipse in the time
In this time of the sun mayhave played a part in the account of
Jonah and the Ninevites. The timeof Jonah's preaching in Nineveh can only be

(09:11):
estimated very generally from the Bible.Second King's fourteen twenty five says that Jerome
the second King of Israel restored thenorthern and eastern borders of Israel according to
the word of the Lord spoken bythe prophet, Jonah, son of Amitipi
Amititai. Jeroboam the Second began acoringency with his father Jehoish in seventy or

(09:41):
sorry seven ninety three or ninety twoBC, and reigned alone from seven eighty
two or eighty one to late summeror early fall of seven fifty three.
Assuming Jonah's prophecy of restoration came earlyin the reign of Juraboem, Jonah's ministry
would have been in the first halfof the eighth century before Christ from about

(10:07):
seven ninety three to seven fifty BC. During this time, the Assyrium.
Assyrian eponym Canon records an eclipse ofthe sun that occurred in the eponym of
Burgis Sigali in the amount of serumsim Anu. I'm so sorry for Butcher

(10:31):
and all this shit. Modern astronomicalcalculations date this eclipse to June fifteenth,
seven sixty three BC, and wasshown a total eclipse as it passed near
Nineveh. For historians, the importanceof the eclipse is that it provided an
absolute date that allowed assigning before christyears to the early eponyms and the Assyrian

(10:58):
eponym Ca or sary Canon. Theaccuracy of the aec dates were later confirmed.
Okay, I'm just gonna skip wowow. Could the Burr Sigali eclipse be
part of the reason why Jonah,when he finally got to Ninevah, found
a city that was serious about repentance. This has been suggested by various writers,

(11:24):
and if true, it would suggestthat Jonahs tripped in Ninevah. Took
place during the reign of ashore Donthe Third, who reigned from seven to
seven seven seventy three to seven fiftyfive BC, But the eclipse was not
the only calamity during ashore Dan's reign. The AEC recounts a plague Covid in

(11:50):
seven sixty five, the eclipse ina revolt of the city of Asher and
seven sixty three, a revolt inAsher again in seven sixty two, a
revolt in Arapah in seven sixty oneand seven sixty and a plague plus a

(12:11):
revolt in the city of Guzana inseven fifty nine. In the year seven
fifty eight was marked by a campaignagainst Guzana and the peace in the land,
after which the king remained in theland for the following two years.
Although there were military campaigns and sevenfifty five, seven fifty four, seven

(12:31):
forty nine, seven forty eight,the EEC does not list any misfortune until
the city of Kala revolted in sevenforty six, which was the ninth year
of ashur Dan's brother and successor,Asher Navari v or sorry in asher Navari
the fifth uh. The Assyrians regardedplagues and eclipses as divine signs of judgment

(12:58):
for the whole land. The playof seven sixty five, followed by a
revolt and eclipse in seven sixty three, and the revolts in the following four
years, would only confirm in theminds of the Assyrians that they were divided
or they were under divine displeasure.It is then appealing to think that the

(13:18):
year of peace and seven fifty eightand the lack of rebellions and plagues in
the following eleven years were consequences ofGod's mercy because of the repentance of the
nation. If so, it woulddate Jonah's appearance in Nineveda seven fifty nine
or seven fifty eight BC. AllRight, I'm gonna skip down a little

(13:45):
bit here it veers off into stuff. I'm just gonna skip Okay, I'm
gonna skip down a little bit.The day of AD thirty three, the

(14:07):
AD thirty three eclipse, Friday,April third, must have been difficult.
It must have been a difficult onefor the inhabitants of Jerusalem. The city
was crowded. Jewish people and prostolytiteshave gathered from all areas of the land,
from the far countries, and thecelebration of Passover. For some.

(14:28):
The day had started before dawn witha mob scene before the Roman governor and
before their own leaders, in whichthey had been incited to demand the death
of the miracle worker from Galilee.Mob hysteria is always emotionally taxing, but
even more so when the emotions arebeing manipulated towards putting someone to death.

(14:50):
Once the consent of pilot was obtained, they thereforward. There followed a horrible
scene of the cruise fiction in theThree Malefactors. Roman practice was to make
crucifision crucifixion a very visible event asa warning against anyone else attempting the crimes
for which the victims were punished.To that end, a Jesus and the

(15:13):
two thieves were crucified by a publicroad outside the city wall, with the
charges against them being prominently displayed.The Passover and AD thirty three, intended
as a time of rejoicing and thanksgivingover God's great deliverance in the past,
had instead assumed an ominous and hatefuland tragic nature. Gospel writers describe further

(15:39):
disturbances. About noon, a darknessovertook the land that lasted for three hours.
We are not told whether it wascaused by clouds or a dust storm.
Then, at approximately three PM,when the figure on the central cross
died, there was an earthquake.There was an earthquake today in New Jersey
four point five, something that weno longer associate with divine displeasure, but

(16:06):
which must have had this significance forat least one individual, a Roman centurion
who was stationed near the cross ofJesus. With more insight and acuity than
possessed by many modern critics of thegospel accounts, the soldier concluded that the
righteous man who had just died wastruly God's son in some oral traditions.

(16:29):
This guy, the centurion's name wasPantera. You gotta love that right five
minutes lone. Anyhow, I digress. After the earthquake, there there may
have been a respit from the troublingphenomenon of nature. The darkness lifted,

(16:51):
the atmosphere became clear again. Theterrifying sit outside the city wall came to
an end as the three bodies wereremoved from display and buried. Soon there
would be an appearance of the Passovermoon. In the wisdom of God,
the feast of Passover always took placein the middle of the lunar month,

(17:11):
guaranteeing that a full moon would illuminatethe nighttime activities of the festival. Everyone
knew that the comforting sight of thefull moon rising would be expected right around
sunset. Shortly after the sunset,and the west of the moon rose in
the east, and it was dark, dark red. It was blood red.

(17:38):
If God spoke to the people inancient times, he would not expect
him to use a modern language suchas French or English. We would expect
him to use as medium of communicationa language that they would understand. For
the Jews, this would be Hebrewor Aramaic. In the modern world,
an eclipse of the sun or themoon show not convey any message of divine

(18:02):
displeasure or coming judgment, shouldn't it. We pride ourselves on the scientific knowledge.
These are natural phenomenon and our causeof which, in the timing of
which are well understood, and theirmeaning to us is only the laws of
physics or being obeyed. However,that is not the significance of the people

(18:26):
of Israel would have assigned to thelunar eclips in April of a D thirty
three. For them, as forJosephus, when writing about Herod, the
eclipse was God speaking in a languagethey understood. God was revealing his displeasure
towards those who had put to deathsomeone more righteous than themselves, just like

(18:48):
Judas and Matthias. So this isI want to say, this is a
naive approach to look at the timingof the eclipse. I would argue that
this might be a naive approach.We know from our readings that God is

(19:11):
like the not only the God ofIsrael and the world and the earth and
all the animals and the little babyJesus, but he's a god of time.
We've seen this over and over againin our Genesis episodes and our Exodus
episodes. So his and he doesn'tsee time in a linear fashion. If

(19:36):
he's letting these things unfold, hethen instead of making the eclipse happen when
it's relevant, he lets the shiphappen when the signs are in place.
That is how I would look atit. Maybe some people would say that
that's being uh, I don't knownaive. You know, well, doctor

(20:02):
Towers, there is such a thingas free will, and God doesn't control
everybody all the time. Okay,all right, my Chrisma dot com is
God sending America a prophetic warning inApril posted by James lash Scher March sixth,

(20:22):
twenty four. Just just last month, there was an incredible celestial event
taking place April eighth, twenty twentyfour, the Great American Eclipse. Millions
are anticipating this rare celestial event andthe amazing natural phenomena that will take place
as the total eclipse ensues. Meanwhile, faith leaders such as Archbishop Alan de

(20:56):
Dio of Encounter Today and Pastor TroyBrewer sat down on the National Religious Broadcasters
Convention this past February to discuss thisspiritual implication behind it. The two discussed
the last time this off it tookplace and how the Lord was showing us

(21:17):
that it meant seven years of peace. So this is the last time,
was the twenty seventeen eclipse. Sevenyears ago. There was an eclipse in
twenty seventeen that stopped at seven Salems. We talked about this last episode Salem,
Oregon. Blah blah blah blah,explained Brewer. What did that indicate?

(21:41):
Well, it represented seven years ofpeace. It also represented that God
Almighty is speaking to the Church,the seven churches. So you have Jerusalem,
which has to do with peace.So it also has to do with
the seven Churches. And it startedin Salem, Oregon. Delving into the
symbolism behind the eclipse, passing throughShelby Park, an Eagle Pass, and

(22:04):
the tension between Texas and the federalgovernment. Brewer points to the past Civil
War and the history associated with ShelbyPark and one possible future for America.
For America, states rights and federalauthority are at odds with one another.
Yes, we are living under adictatorship right now. I'll say it,

(22:29):
God damn it that this time aroundand there is another seven cities the eclipse
will pass through. Excuse me,but they do not represent peace the way
Salem does. This year it goesthrough seven American cities. That's actually called
nineveh being with beginning with Nineva,Texas, reveals Brewer. For anyone with

(22:52):
even the slightest spiritual discernment, theodds of a coincidence are simply too astronomical.
Barely able to hold his excitement atthis revelation, asked the crowd listening,
are you guys getting this? Imean you can't. You can't make
this stuff up? He exclaims.What does that mean? Then? What

(23:15):
does it indicate to us? Itis the sign of Jonah, the prophet,
says Brewer, the sign of youbetter get repentant. It's a sign
of the clock is ticking. Youhave forty days left. These days.
America and the city of Nineveh priorto the repentance share quite a few common

(23:37):
traits. Univoza city steeped in wickedness, faced aminent judgment. However, God,
in his mercy, sought to givethe people an opportunity to turn away
from their sinful ways and embrace righteousnessthrough the prophet Joanah. Eventually obedience and

(24:03):
the message of impending judgment. Godaimed to stir the hearts of the Ninavites,
leading them to genuine repentance and ultimatelysparing the city from his divine wrath.
But will the United States heed thesame warning as ninev did repent its
collective sins. I think that there'sa chance for us to repent, and

(24:26):
I think that God loves this nation. But I also think that God is
not playing, says Brewster. Thesky is not falling, but the Kingdom
is coming. All right, We'lltry to do this. Here go the

(24:48):
signs in the sun and the moonand the stars. Does the upcoming solar
eclipse point to the end? Times? By Gary Lane. This is CBN
dot Com Broadcasting Network. The sevenhundred club and that sort of thing.
So, God, who would everguess that I'd be reading an article from
CBN. You could have told methat, I don't know. Maybe catching

(25:26):
a glimpse of a total solar eclipseis a rare event. The last one
cut a path across North America sevenyears ago, and only eight have occurred
since the birth of the United Statesin seventeen seventy six. As a result,
the people worldwide are traveling to keepviewing locations through the US and Canada

(25:47):
to witness this celestial phenomenon. Thenext total eclipse of the Sun won't occur
until twenty forty four. Will webe around to view it or will a
prophetic apocalypse of catastrophic proportions devastate theworld before then. In their new book

(26:08):
Revelation nine to one Pint one,how the Book of Revelations intersects with today's
headlines, Troy Anderson and pastor PaulBegley argue that the total eclipse of April
eighth, twenty twenty four holds biblicalimportance. On this week's episode of The
Global Lane, Begley said that theeclipse is a prophetic movement for several reasons.

(26:32):
Prophetic moment for several reasons. Henotes that it will pass over seven
American cities called Nineveh and one calledJonah, which makes him wonder if this
is America's Nineveh moment. Begley hostsa weekly telecast called Coming Apocalypse. Oh
Gosh, I'm sorry, excuse me, and he believes that the eclipse is

(26:56):
a time for Americans to contemplate onwhere their country stands on so many current
issues, particularly social issues. Hethinks in America has strayed from the Word
of God and now has laws toprotect those who do so. I believe
that we are really seeing just likethe Bible said, there'd be signs in
the sun and the moons and thestars, and there would be distress among

(27:19):
nations and confusion. We see allthat happening right now. We really believe
it is a prophetic moment. Unlikethe twenty seventeen solar eclipse, beg Lee
argues that the three celestial three celestialbodies will be involved in this one,
the Sun, the Moon, anda comet known as the Devil's Comet.

(27:47):
Beg Lee believes that this event willfulfill a prophecy spoken by a Jesus in
Luke twenty one. Okay, holdon, I have my red letter here,
let's find it. Give me onesecond. Oh my god, it's
taken me so long, all right, Luke twenty one. As he looked

(28:22):
up, Jesus saw the rich puttingtheir gifts into the temple treasury, and
he also saw the poor widow putin two very small copper coins. And
he says, I tell you thetruth, this poor widow has put in
more than all others. All ofthe people gave their gifts out of their
wealth, but she, out ofher poverty, put in all that she
had to live on. Some ofhis disciples remarking about how the temple was

(28:52):
adorned with beautiful stones and gifts dedicatedto God. But Jesus said, as
for what you see here, thetime will come when not one stone will
be left on another. Every oneof them will be thrown down. Teacher.
They asked, when will these thingshappen? And what will the signs

(29:12):
that they are about to take place? And he replied, watch out that
you are not deceived, for manywill come in my name claiming I am
he, and the time is near. But do not follow them. When
you hear of wars and revolutions.Do not be frightened. These things must

(29:33):
happen first, but the end willnot come right away. And then he
said to them, nation will riseagainst nation, the kingdom against kingdom.
There will be great earthquakes, therewill be faminines. There will be pestilences
in various places. Hey, there'sgoing to be a locust infants station here

(29:55):
in Pennsylvania this summer, and fearfulevents and great signs from heaven. But
before all of this, they willlay hands on you and persecute you.
They will deliver you to synagogues andprisons, and you will be brought before
kings and governors and all on theaccount of my name. This will result

(30:18):
in you being witnessed to them.But make up your mind. Don't worry
beforehand how you will defend yourselves,For I will give you words and wisdom
that none of your adversaries will beable to resist or contradict. You will
be betrayed even by your parents,your brothers, your relatives, and your

(30:41):
friends, and they will put someof you to death. This is it's
wild man, It's like cancel culture. This is the next step. Well,
you know your parents are telling onyou. Your brothers are telling on
you, your relatives, your friends, they're all telling on you. All

(31:03):
men will hate you because of me, But not a hair on your head
will perish. By standing firm,you will gain life. When you see
Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, youwill know that its desolation is near.
Then let those who are in Judeaflee to the mountains, let those in
the cities get out, and letthose in the country not enter the city.

(31:27):
For this is the time of punishmentand fulfillment of all that has been
written. How dreadful it will bein those days for pregnant women and nursing
mothers. There will be a greatdistress in the layand and the rafts against
the people. They will fall bythe sword, and they will be taken

(31:48):
to as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on the by
the gentiles. Until the times ofthe gentile piles are fulfilled. There will
be signs in the sun, themoon, and the stars on earth.
Nations will be in anguish and perplexity, and the roaring and tossing of the

(32:14):
sea, and men will faint fromterror and apprehensive of what is coming on
this world, and the heavenly bodieswill be shaken. At that time they
will be They will see the Sunof Man coming in a cloud with the
power and the great glory. Whenthese things begin to take place, stand

(32:36):
up and lift your heads, becauseyour redemption is drawing near. He told
them this parable look at the figtree in all these leaves. When they
sprout leaves, you can see foryourselves, and you know that summer is
near. Even so, when yousee these things happen, you know that
the Kingdom of God is near.I will tell you the true in this

(33:00):
generation. I will tell you notto pass away until all these things have
happened. Heaven and earth will passaway, but my words will never pass
away. Be careful, your heartswill be weighed down with dispentation, with
drunkenness. Hold on and the anxietiesof life, and that day will close

(33:27):
on you unexpectedly like a trap,for will come upon all those who live
on the face of the whole earth. Be always on the watch and pray,
but you may be able to escapeall that is about to happen,
and that you may be able tostand before the Son of Man each day.

(33:51):
Jesus was teaching at the temple,and each evening he went out to
spend the night out on the hillcalled Mount all the Mount of Olives,
and all the people came early inthe morning to hear him at the temple.
Okay, that was uh Luke,the whole of Luke twenty one.

(34:12):
It's time for this h all right. So there was just this mention of

(35:32):
the last article we read, thismention of a devil comment, so I
wanted to dive into that a littlebit. This is again who would have
saw this coming from Business Insider.A rare devil comment will appear during the
twenty twenty four total solar eclipse,and here's how to see the Mount Everest

(35:57):
sized space rock. This is byElin Leponte, April fourth, twenty twenty
four. Again Business insider dot comeclipse watchers might be in for a two
for one special On Monday, onApril eighth, the moon will blot out
the Sun over a significant portion ofthe US, plunging cities from Texas Domain

(36:22):
into several minutes of darkness. Butthere will be another exciting astronomical event to
keep an eye out for. Forthe first time in seventy one years,
comment twelve p Ponds Brooks aka theMother of Dragons or the Devil Comet,

(36:42):
is coming relatively close to the Sun, but don't worry, it's not going
to collide with Earth. Earth.This unusually large commet is estimated to be
about as big as Mount Everest,and he gets his nicknamed the Devil Comet
from horn shaped outbursts had in itscomma, the localized clouds of gas,

(37:06):
dust, and ice particles that wrapthe comet's solid nucleus and anembulous envelope.
During the total solar eclipse, theMoon completely eclipses the Sun, the skies
will darken enough that you may barelybe able to see the Devil Comet with
your naked eye, or you canwhip out a pair of binoculars or a
telescope. Just remember it's never safeto look a blot Okay. To find

(37:31):
the Pond's Brooks, first look towardsthe eclipsed Sun for the planet Jupeta.
Wow, that's a deep cut foryou guys that have been with the show
for a long time. Jupeta.It will appear as a small bright point
of light in the upper left athousand points a light coming at you.

(37:54):
After you spot a Jupiter look slightlyup into the right the common It will
be between Jupiter and the Sun,but closer to Jupiter. Use in the
close up photos. Why can't I'mnot going to repost these photos. I
don't know them. All right,let's move on. This is something called

(38:15):
kfgo dot com and it says,what if it's more than just an eclipse?
I don't know what kfg O is. Hold, let's see if I
can. Oh, it's a radiostation, all right. Well, let's

(38:38):
just get back into what if it'smore than just an eclipse? Fargo,
North Dakota, USA, The mightyseven ninety kfg O Doug Liler, April
fifth, twenty four. We goabout our date are We go about our

(38:58):
day to day business, working,living, working, and we have our
diversions fishing, sports, exercising,podcast, drinking, you know, YouTube
videos about the end of the world. Whatever you hear the new significant event
taking place in the galaxy. Forsome it's worth changing plans and making adjustments,

(39:23):
and for other it's, oh,that's interesting. But what if on
April eighth, the Moon will passin front of the Sun, turning daylight
into darkness across large swath of alarge swath of the US, with around
one hundred and eighty million people livingin or near the path of totality,

(39:45):
it will be the most watched eclipsein the nation's history and likely all of
history. But the Great North AmericanEclipse of twenty twenty four is more than
just a historic astronomymical event. Fora variety of reasons, it's considered a
prophetic event. It occurs on theeve of the biblical New Year Nissan one.

(40:10):
Again, it's super close to passover. Its path runs diagonally opposite the
eclipse seven years ago, which we'vetalked about ad nauseum, to form a
giant black X across the continental UnitedStates. The path crosses a number of
cities with biblical names the past.The path crosses through an area that will

(40:31):
see a plague like explosion of insects. Oh okay, here we go.
Insects that has not occurred in twocenturies. Famine, plague, locusts,
mass hysteria, dogs and cats livingtogether. You know what I'm talking about.
We're talking about the real one,not this new bullshit. And more.

(40:55):
To appreciate the prophetic significance of theeclipse, a review of America's history
and the role God's redemptive plan forIsrael is in order. So this is
man, this is great. We'restarting in a weird place. Columbus's divine
mission. According to this history books, Columbus discovered America by accident while seeking

(41:21):
a new sea route to Asia,but facts not typically found in the book
suggests that it was providence, wellwithout it being providence. Whenever we talk
about the Columbus story, you knowwhat we have to do. We always
have to say, why was hetrying to find a new sea route to
Asia? That's important. The fuckingAmericas were discovered because of Islam. Go

(41:50):
back and listen. Go find thoseepisodes, man, and those were fun
Columbus the American Sermon. I thinkthe episodes. Columbus, a devout follower
of a Jesus Christ, believed thathis voyage was ordained by God to spread
the Gospel to the ends of theearth before the Lord's return. The explorer

(42:13):
was so convinced in his role atend times prophecy that had wrote a work
entitled The Book of Prophecies, inwhich he cited scripture to show how God
had planned his expedition in the NewWorld, and he would be doing great
things for the Church. Through thisdiscovery, scholars believe that Spanish explorer was
actually of Jewish descent, and thathis voyage was in part a conquest to

(42:37):
find a new Promised land. Uh. This all this Columbus stuff we also
talk about in I believe those Americansermons. Yeah, I mean I believe
that that. I believe that thisstuff is in there. They also people
also think that Columbus was Greek Greek, one of those Greeks. The duration

(43:07):
of Columbus's expedition of Barts unknown,which no man could have orchestrated, has
profound a typological significance. After aseries of mishaps at sea, including a
broken rudder, a faulty compass,a near mutiny of the crew, who
feared that they would never make itback to Spain, Columbus sighted land and
went ashore at the America's on theseventieth day of the voyage, which happened

(43:31):
to mark the final day of theFeast of Tabernacles. Thus, the journey
to a new Promised Land began onthe day associated with Jewish exile and lasted
exactly seventy days. Denoting the periodof exile and then ended at the festival
associated with Gods provision and temporary dwellingplace Levi three, forty two forty three.

(43:58):
America what ind you turn out tobe a new promised land, a
nation rooted in a common dative ofHebrew values and aspirations. All back in
the day, the Puritans living inAmerica saw themselves as a new chosen people
dwelling in a new Israel. Theirfast and feastive days include Thanksgiving, which

(44:20):
were based on Jewish observances such asYam Kapur and Tabernacle. On the original
design the US Seal depicted the Israelitescrossing the Red Sea with Pharaoh in pursuit.
That's what Ben Franklin wanted. That'swhat Ben Franklin wanted. The Hebrew
language was a prerequisite for American scholars. Many universities even required it in their

(44:45):
curricoolum. From the late eighteen hundredsto early nineteen hundreds, millions of Jews
fleeing anti Semitism in Europe immigrated tothe US, making America home to the
largest Jewish dyspora population. Around thesame time, Zionism, the movement to
create a Jewish state in the Landof Israel gained momentum in the US.

(45:08):
Later, the US would become avital ally to the Jews in Europe and
Israel. America's defeat of Nazi GermanyNational Socialist the National Socialist Party of Germany

(45:28):
in World War II thwarted Hitler's planto exterminate the Jews. After the Holocaust,
the US played a key role insecuring support for the UN resolution to
create the modern State of Israel.When Israel declared itself a nation on May
fourteenth, nineteen forty eight, theUS was the first country to sign grant

(45:50):
recognition forty eight to the pre fromforty nineteen forty eight to the President,
the US has provided more financial,political military support to Israel than any other
nation. With our summary in view, two things are clear. The US
has been uniquely supportive of the Jewsand was instrumental in the prophetic replanting of
the fig tree in the Land ofIsrael Isaiah eleven, eleven and twelve,

(46:15):
then Matthew twenty four, twenty three, and forty three. One could argue
that without the US, there wouldbe no modern state of Israel. So
this is kind of like the thing. You know, God prophesies the return
of the state of Israel, andthen when it happened in nineteen forty eight,

(46:37):
what would you say. Would yousay, well, when God prophesied
it, he knew when it wasgoing to happen, or would you say
it happened because God prophesized it.It's just to me, it's the same,
maybe not the same. It's asimilar question to the is the eclipse

(46:57):
happening because we're fucking everything up?Or are we fucking everything up because the
eclipse is happening. Like I said, it's not a one on one.
It's not an analog thing. Okay, I'm just in my brain. Jubilee
Nation. Another clue as to America'sprophetic destiny is the fact that she was

(47:24):
founded on the jubilee principle of liberty. From the original ideologies of and charters
to the nation's iconic symbols and currency, the theme of liberty or jubilee is
ever present. Patrick Henry's battle cryto run up to the Revolutionary War was

(47:45):
give me liberty or give me death, motherfuckers. I might have added libbed
that last part. The US Declarationof Independence cites liberty as the first God
given right next to fundamental right oflife. The US Constitution states that no
person shall be deprived of liberty withoutdue process of the law. The US

(48:08):
Pledge of Allegiance concludes with the wordswith Liberty and Justice for all. The
Statue of Liberty greets immigrants arriving inNew York Harbor. The iconic symbol of
American independence, the Liberty Bell,which is engraved with the Jubilee pronouncement,

(48:30):
proclaim liberty throughout the land and toall inhabitants thereof. There's also Levi twenty
five ten. The one word mottostamped on the US coin is lee.
There's an insurance company that you can'tget away from the commercials. See how

(48:50):
the in the See how the USis the nation founded on biblical principle of
liberty or jubilee. It is strikingthat it is also the nation compromised of
fifty states. The number of JubileeThe America's Jubilee connection goes deeper still.
According to the sabbatical chronology favored byscholars, the US's first full year as

(49:16):
a nation, seventeen seventy seven,was a sabbatic goal year. The next
year seventeen seventy eight was a jubilee. There are notes with calculations if you're
interested in this, Like I saidkfgo dot com, what if it's more
than eclipse? Okay? During thefirst Jubilee On June twenty fourth, seventeen

(49:39):
seventy eight, a total solar eclipserecorded in the United States darkened a path
from Lower Carolinas to New England,the area of the original colonies. Thus,
America's first total eclipse was a jubileeeclipse. It gets more interesting.
Counting towards jubilee periods from seventeen seventyeight, we find twenty twenty four,

(50:02):
the year of the current American eclipse, marks the nation's fifth jubilee, which
is significant become the number five significanceGod's favor and grace towards man. While
God has certainly shed his grace onthe US during its five jubilees, the

(50:22):
symbolism around the twenty twenty four eclipsesuggests that the grace period is ending.
Why I wonder, Why I wonderwhy I would end? X marks the
spot as noted earlier. In twentytwenty four eclipse completes a giant X across

(50:43):
America on the Eve of Nissan.Besides marking the turn of the biblical year,
Nissan is called the month of Redemption. It is when the Hebrews departure
from Egypt or exodus occurred. Whatis interesting is that there are seventeen locations
in the US named Egypt, andthey were all found or near the X

(51:05):
formed in the Eclipse Path. What'smore, at the center of the X
is the lower part of the southernIllinois. There are there an area just
south of I seventy called Little Egypt. Thus, the ex is formed by
the eclipses Path literally has Egypt writtenall over it. There are seventeen US

(51:28):
locations named Egypt, significant in thestructure the scripture because the number seventeen denotes
a period of dwelling in Egypt.In first Hebrews to reside in Egypt,
Joseph was seventeen when he was soldinto slavery. That's in our Genesis Epsis.
Nissan seventeen is when Hebrews departed Egyptcrossing the Red Sea. Nissan seventeen

(51:51):
is when the Hebrews freed from Egyptfirst ate the fruits of the promised land.
That's Joshua five ten to twelve withthe exodus or the x Otis theme
cross the cross theme in view.It is noteworthy that the eclipse X also
marks ground zero of what is predictedto be a plague like explosion of cicada

(52:16):
insects across seventeen states. This Aprila rare double brood that has not occurred
in two hundred and twenty one years. Famine, plague, glaucus all at
one time. You don't think there'sa famine. You look in my goddamn

(52:37):
refrigerator because food is expensive. BroI don't have to tell you that.
You know that. Another feature ofthe X drawn by the eclipse path is
a corresponds to the Hebrew letter Ta, which is a picture of two crossed

(52:59):
sticks. Significance because speaking of Israel'sredemption in the last days, God says
he will join the stick of Ephraim, represented the scattered tribes of Israel,
with the stick of Judah, thetribes who dwell in the land of Israel,
where they will be cleansed of alltheir idolatry and worship him as one.

(53:22):
I am going to take the stickof Joseph, which is in Abraham
Ephraim's hand and of the Israelite tribesassociated with him, and join it to
Judas stick. And I will makethem into a single stick of wood,
and they will become one in myhand. And I will take the Israelites
out of the nations where they havegone, and I will gather them from

(53:44):
around and bring them back into theirown land. And I will make them
one nation in the land the mountainsof Israel. There I will cleanse them.
They will be my people, andI will be there. A God
apes together strong. How does theprophecy about the return of scattered Ephromites relate

(54:06):
to America as a type of Egypt? Well for starters, In contrast to
the other heads of the Israel Israel'stribes, they were born in canaanfrom was
born in Egypt. Furthermore, Ephraimwas born during the seven years of fore
Warning that preceded the seven years offamine in Egypt. The seven years before

(54:30):
Warning paralleled the seven years between theeclipses that formed the Black Cross. In
addition to the Egypt connection, therewas presumed genealogical link between Ephraim and the
US. A popular view is thatthe US is home to nearly half of
the world's Jews is where many descendantsof Ephrem would reside today. This review

(54:54):
is based on the fact that whenthe Assyrians conquered and deported the ten tribes
of the nor Kingdom, including Ephraimand seven twenty two BC, they were
never returned, but they were assimilatedinto other groups. These lost tribe members
migrated to Europe, and when antiSemitism flared up, they fled to America,

(55:15):
seeing America as home to the scatteredEphormites. It is fascinating to consider
another feature of the eclipse paths.When we combine the X or the tav
paths with a third annual or eclipsepath from twenty twenty three, they formed
the Hebrew letter Aliph, which isa picture of a bull struck. This

(55:44):
is striking as the bull, well, we all know about the bull,
the golden calf, the bull astrotheologically speaking Taurists, which I put on
the Tower of Babbel in my comicbook mo Lock all this bull stuff.
So this is striking because the bullsanimals associated with the tribe of Ephraim.

(56:07):
Another uncanny bull correlation relates to thecomet, the dragon comet the devil's comet
has fucking horns. Furthermore, thehorned comet reaches a boy parahelion or maximum
brightness as it enters the constellation Taurusor the Bull. Thus we have a

(56:31):
bull comet appearing above the bull nation, which is marked with the Hebrew letter
that depicts a bull. Finally,if the exodus theme of twenty twenty four
eclipse is not comprehensive enough, thesun is eclipsed by the moon in the
constellation Pisces on the sign that depictsGod's people in bondage, or more precisely,

(56:52):
the eclipse that occurs on the bandthat binds the fish, thus slightly
severing the band or releasing from bondage. To appreciate the unlikelihood of a solar
eclipse occurring during a band of Pisces, consider the sun is found at this

(57:13):
location only one day each year.In twenty twenty four, this day happens
to coincide with the new moon thatmarks the beginning of Nissan, the month
of Exodus. With the above correlationsin view, the question is begged,
could the impending solar eclipse be assignedpointing to the ultimate exodus and homecoming of

(57:36):
the scattered Jews foretold in Israel.I've been John Towers and this has been
the Abercast. Hope everybody has enjoyedor had enjoyed the eclipse, and I

(58:02):
hope to God everybody's safe. Thetraffic in this part of the country along
the path of Totality they're talking aboutit is crazy. They're talking about the
stress on the infrastructure between Texas andhere as, like the travel that would
be included or part of the formulafor like seven super Bowls all going on

(58:24):
at the same time. I knowpeople in the Path of Totality and their's
stories of people in those areas rentingout like their driveways and stuff for people
to come and gawk at the sun. Hotel rates have been going crazy.
