Welcome Cale to the discussion 

Updates: Epiphany 2025 Jan 6. jan8.   Baptism of the Lord Jan 12   Jan 21st   Wesley’s 2nd bday Jan22   Feb8 25 feb 12  March 20    March 21  Marcy 23 march 28   updated aug 15, 2025 sept 25, 2025   Oct 31, 2025

‘Breaking news:  incredible archaeological discovery, if proven true, would rank in the top 10, nearer the first. There is a massive substructure UNDER Giza that is keeping it accurate to within 3 seconds of arc.  But unproven. More later…’

On the first day of Spring: the day of annual rebirth, resurrection, renewal of the earth. It’s more than just flowers and bees, birds and trees in blossom.

On March 20th this and every year, at High Noon, the world’s largest object at the exact center of the world has ZERO shadow, as it has for 4600 years. 

But, the one day we know it went dark for 3 hours, was Friday the 13th day of Abib, nominally we believe March 25th coincident with the date Mary conceived our Savior.  The same date the Catholic and Orthodox Churches celebrate Annunciation.

Also, it’s the day nature rebelled for our Jesus was dying on a tree.   But Fr Rocky’s take is important: I have long believed our common calendar is off 4 or 5 days but the cosmos is not.  The Sun still shines, and the earth’s revolution remains 365.242 or “A solar year, also known as a tropical year, is approximately 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes, and 45 seconds long. This duration represents the time it takes for the Earth to complete one full cycle of seasons, measured from one vernal equinox to the next. ”   Interestingly, the Liturgical Year repeats itself as well with wise variations year after year.

Fr. Rocky’s take on the calendar shift:

“God bless you Len!  The reason that 3/25 is not the first day of spring is the same reason that Christmas is not on the 20^th of December.  By the time the Christians established the Liturgical Calendar, the Julian Calendar was off by five siderial days, because the Julian Calendar –  named after Julius Caesar, but invented in Alexandria three centuries previously –  was off by eleven minutes a day, an imprecision corrected by Pope Gregory XIII in 1582, by omitting leap years in century years not divisible by 400.  It took the Protestant countries another two centuries to catch up.  Fascinating.”

It IS fascinating because Alexandria, the home of the Julian calendar, played a part back in 1303ad, residual damage from an incredible earthquake and shake.  But also, on the plain outside of Cairo, the Giza plateau.

The Theology of Giza    Translation: Border Fire in the Middle.

(still under construction)

This “thesis”, which I call The Theology of Giza, is really about and centered on the Ultimate Gift, symbolized and brightly gift wrapped for us here on earth, but from all eternity in the Mind of the Eternal Father, with its gatekeeper covered by a hard shell mirror white finish…

Well, until seven centuries ago, when it lost its mirrored stones, Giza was a part of that Christ “pre-show”  most dramatically, probably the largest object built to point directly to our Trinity’s 2nd Person’s Nature and birth place. 144,000 casing stones don’t disappear overnight.

The artist  rendering of what Giza looked like in the desert until 1303ad turned Giza into a Home Depot masonry yard, is important to visualize; and to better understand the full impact of Giza in human and spiritual history.

There is no better time than this moment IN mid eternity history, with the marked increase in Eucharistic events, during the Jubilee of Hope year, to tell a hope-filled tale  about the Trinity!

More specifically, the GodFather’s selfless & eternal Love for His Son and intentionality regarding a race of people who would walk the earth.  A singular favored race, one in number.  Humans.  Male and female.

Please read with a hungry, yearning and prayerful heart.  As we are into the 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope, a year I believe coincides with the revolutionary idea that Jesus is TRULY irrevocably present in the changed bread and wine, a timely gift of the Eucharist, is  a poignant reminder just how much YOU are loved.

Allow me to untie the bow; no need to tear off the ‘wrapping paper’ since that was removed over centuries starting in the Crete centered earthquake of the 14th century AD.

From Wiki: “The 1303 Crete earthquake occurred at about dawn on 8 August. It had an estimated magnitude of about 8, a maximum intensity of IX (Violent) on the Mercalli intensity scale, and triggered a major tsunami that caused severe damage and loss of life on Crete and at Alexandria. It badly damaged the Lighthouse of Alexandria.”   Ironies of a curtain torn in two come to mind circa 33 ad.  Why did God allow this to happen 725 years ago?  Read on:

“In Egypt the earthquake caused severe damage in Cairo, dislodging much of the Great Pyramid’s white limestone casing (stones) and toppling minarets on many mosques. “

“In Alexandria the city walls were mostly destroyed. Most notably, the Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the seven Wonders of the World, was badly damaged. Homes in Alexandria collapsed, killing many people.  According to Alexis Perrey, the earthquake was felt on the entire Adriatic coast, up to Venice (about 1,600 km or 1,000 mi from Heraklion).”

Note, my fellow sojourners: only ONE Wonder remains; it stands silently in the desert near the Nile.  It is called the Giza Pyramid but that is a curious translation from “Border Fire Middle” which would seem an odd partnering of words.

Open game!!  Apparently, the loosening up of those well honed hard white limestones made repairs simpler for the local Arabian Muslims, providing a rocky block pile of materials for building and rebuilding.

As it turned out, over a couple centuries, most of the estimated 144,000 casing stones were removed leaving a few below the sand as evidence of the Master’s handiwork.

The sample pictured above is in a museum in England and the showcase it sits in matches the angle built in to the external walls of Giza.  Why is this important?  One feature of the Father’s monument is it matches the curvature of the earth with its external wall concavity, something discovered just a few decades ago after four millennia.  How the heaven could the ancients do that without satellites and super computers?

For salvation history purposes, Giza has zero shadow at the true Spring Equinox: at high noon.  This will be discussed later.

Yet: always know this: the Father loves us with an everlasting love, through the Eternal Gift of His Eucharistic Son.

Over the recent years, as our laity AND some priests (reflect on the 8th century Lanciano Eucharistic Miracle) have waned in their belief Jesus is TRULY present in the converted bread & wine, the emphasis of the Father’s Eternal Plan must aid the renewal, revival of our understandings.  Bring on the revival into the Renaissance of Love, of the True Presence.

Let’s begin with someone we all need and (outside of the first couple, Adam  & Eve)have in our past or present, a mother.

Simple truth: the Virgin Mary, the New Covenantal Ark and the true fulfillment of the Father’s plan, consummated the Father’s Son by being “the spouse” of the Spirit, delivering His (the Father’s) Son 9 months after the Church recognizes His earthly conception at the Annunciation.  The nominal date, March 25th, is recognized by tradition as important.

The date in Gregorian, is March 25th, interestingly close to the Spring Equinox. Conjecture about proximity to 4 specific seasonal days in the solar year, reviewed later.

March 25th is a trans historical faith link: recall, after a number of visits, Bernadette was introduced by name to the Immaculate Conception at Lourdes, the Lady of the waters of healing on March 25, 1858 just weeks after her first appearance to the future saint.

Inextricably tied to March 25th, the date of the Annunciation and perceived to be Jesus’ conception day, at the turn of the first Millennium.  As Tradition tells us, March 25 conveniently is the date of the Crucifixion as well.  More intriguing is when you examine three books, you discover Good Friday happened on Friday the 13th day of Abib/Nissan (Hebrew calendar)

It was subsequent, completely woven with the reality of her Immaculate Conception occurring an estimated decade and a  half previously, to those saintly parents, Joachim and Anne. For the record, only four beings have been immaculately created on this earth…

In this treatise, I hope to show you some fascinating God-incidences (some may be mere coincidences or irrelevant, yet severable if we find them wonting…like you, I am not perfect, nor omniscient and certainly a sinner) as the Trinity has interceded in our world for OUR good, not God’s.

The Trinity has always existed and does not need us nor the angels, good or bad.  But out of the eternal virtue, LOVE selflessly, we are on the greatest adventure any creature could imagine.

Our Protestant friends love to roll out “sola scriptura” more fluidly than melted butter dripping off the waffle, but Church Tradition and other means of revelatory objects and actions, most supernatural, should not be easily discounted. How they miss out on such richness from heaven!

Nor am I talking about selling Mary’s toasted bread image on E-bay, but undeniably Giza, as the world’s largest monument sitting at the EXACT Center of the World, really can’t be ignored that much longer.  It’s place in Salvation History is certainly undeniable it seems for the inquisitive Catholic mind.

In time, I believe I can show you Giza is no less an amazing Catholic icon with significant features to bolster our faith in the Creator and Eternal.

Please, also, IF you see/read a contradictory error deviating from God’s Truth, I am the imperfect vehicle to provide this: private revelation must be vetted of course and the Church has never, or at least, recently I can’t see,  looked at the Theology of Giza this way. 

It is much more than 2.3 million multi-ton blocks piled in the desert, appearing worn and ragged, erratically today.  The artist rendering at the beginning of the thesis shows what Giza looked like before it became the scavengers’ paradise following an earthquake.

Tell me your thoughts, criticisms and corrections before this becomes book.  Also, any other observations can be sent to Lenbeckman@gmail.com with Theology of Giza in the subject bar.  Perfect timing in light of the beautiful Nat’l Eucharist Congress mid country July 2024 as the re-emergence and resurgence of the Eucharistic Renaissance continues.  Oddly, my NEC tale is unique and mystifying, to be related later, but ALL for the Glory of God. 

Note that at NEC’s conclusion on July 21:

“The pilgrimage and congress (were) part of the National Eucharistic Revival, a three-year initiative of the U.S. bishops launched in 2022 to increase understanding of and love for Jesus in the Eucharist. The close of the congress (July 21, 2024) launched the Year of Mission, during which the bishops are encouraging Catholics to “walk with one” by sharing their faith and accompanying another person to better know Jesus and his love.

I believe this search for the truth re: Giza can be part of that “walk of faith” discerning what the Father’s Gift Ultimate is!

“The pilgrimage and congress are part of the National Eucharistic Revival, a three-year initiative of the U.S. bishops launched in 2022 to increase understanding of and love for Jesus in the Eucharist.

 So…

…Let’s begin this Eucharistic adventure starting with the 2nd Eve and first going back about 100 years ago.

The Lady of Light/Zeitoun and Mr. Tawfik Khalil Abraham in 1920 Cairo, Egypt  

As cradle Catholics, most of us grew up hearing about Fatima, Lourdes and other places Mary has been to since she was Assumed and Coronated.  Our Regina Coeli HAS been busy!

For example, the Patroness of  the America’s imagery stems from a half a millennium old cactus fiber cloak that has become known as Our Lady of Guadalupe’s image.   Had you heard of the Our Lady of Light appearing over St Mary Major…in Cairo, Egypt?!   Note, as Briana and Gavin will discover, there is another Mary Major in Rome!

France, Portugal, Mexico City are fine.  But, much closer to the center of the world, Mary appeared as a bright white lady, with a dove perched on her head, showing up above a Cairo Coptic church known as St. Mary Major.  Would you feel slighted if I contend Mary had been to that region a mere 1900 years previously, on a donkey with her earthly husband and Sacred Son?

“The story (of Zeitoun) begins much earlier (than the 1968-71 1152 days of Mary’s Cairo miracles above St Mary Major);  around 1920.  A Coptic Christian, Tawfik Khalil Abraham, owned this spot of land in Zeitoun/Cairo, Egypt that he was about to build a hotel there.”

Then, the Blessed Virgin Mary visited him in a dream requesting instead that he build a Coptic Church in her honor. If he did so, she promised to perform a miracle there sometime in the future.” (hat tip Brian Kranick)

Mother Mary Major certainly gets around, not on Eagles’ wings but empowered by the Trinity, like an organic laser focusing us on her Son and getting us to know more about our eternal destination.

And she keeps her promises.  Truth is, Mr. Abraham proceeded to change his plans from a multi-story inn to a  holy sanctuary ready for Jesus’ mom decades later.  The church remains today, over 100 years old.  Irony, one of the four major churches in Rome is, as mentioned previously,  another St. Mary Major.

Could a Catholic Blessed Virgin Mary convince a non-Catholic but Christian man to go Orthodox church building after abandoning his hotel business?  Of course! 

Promises made, promises kept:  apparently, in fact, apparition style, she did keep her promise 48 years later above the church he had built because SHE had asked him to.  Mom got her way and kept her promise, as usual.

Historically, Mary makes her frequent flyer appearances over the centuries sometimes during or after major wars. and Zeitoun was similar yet unique.  Her earliest known supernatural excursion is 40ad when she bilocated (in two places at once) to see St James in Spain at Zaragoza, which we know today as Our Lady of the Pillar.

For example, during WWI, recall the Archangel first visited the three Fatima visionaries in Sept 1916, just prior to her six days of monthly visitations that started monthly on May 13, 1917.  And realize, since it ended with an Armistice with little resolution, it continued 20+years, morphing in the 2nd chapter, WWII.  Often, we think of two separate wars but…

As to Our Lady of Light/Zeitoun, after requesting Mr Abraham “build a church”, 48years later, her visitations were seen directly by millions, by more people than any other apparition up through today.  For 1152 days.

Her visit above Mr. Abraham’s St Mary Major Coptic Orthodox church in the Zeitoun section of Cairo, happened 298 days after the end of the third post WWII Middle East war. The descendants of Abraham, specifically Israelis and Arabs, still battle it out but God keeps His promises.

Note, most often like Our Lady of Champion or Fatima, Tenochtitlan/Mexico City’s Guadalupe, Mary’s appearances are recorded based on the countries, cities  or sites where they occur.  Can we ignore the impact of such a celestial event, both of duration and prominence, of a beautiful woman from heaven flanked with doves of peace and other miraculous events?

Verify it yourself: another six day event, the ”Six-Day War, also known as the June War, 1967 Arab–Israeli War or Third Arab–Israeli War, was fought between Israel and a coalition of Arab states, primarily Egypt, Syria, and Jordan from 5 to 10 June 1967.

Military hostilities broke out amid poor relations between Israel and its Arab neighbors, which had been observing the 1949 Armistice Agreements signed at the end of the First Arab–Israeli War” -wiki What’s with these descendants of Ishmael and Isaac?   

Conversion and consecration of Russia, one of Mary’s main messaging via Fatima; and Middle East peace, presumably a goal of Jesus’ mom in her flights to Egypt, shows she always has a purpose AND focuses on One Being each time: her Son, and His Salvation History, the peace that passes ALL understanding.  His Story LEADS to OUR salvation, as you know.

As you read this, we currently, are watching the extended 4th Middle East war continue…yet, we should focus on the Holy Family’s nighttime escape, with the Angel telling Joseph go NOW! due to Herod’s duplicity in seeking to kill the new King.

The Magi had followed the Star, discovering Joseph & Mary in the City of David, Bethlehem-Ephrathah; soon later, with the Son in tow, the Holy Family headed to the environs of Giza in Cairo. As we are told in Isaiah 7&8:

The LORD spoke to Ahaz, saying: Ask for a sign from the Lord, your God; let it be deep as the nether world, or high as the sky!
But Ahaz answered, “I will not ask! I will not tempt the LORD!”
Then Isaiah said: Listen, O house of David!  Is it not enough for you to weary people, must you also weary my God?
Therefore the Lord himself will give you this sign:
the virgin shall be with child, and bear a son,
and shall name him Emmanuel,
which means “God is with us!”     

God never gives up on us, whether Jew or Greek!  Ephatha(h) means “fruitful” and in Mark 7:34, Jesus uses this word to help the deaf man.  “Be opened”.  How much more “fruitful” could the birth of God as Man in the “House of Bread of Life” city be?  Jesus was silent in His mother’s womb, until opened near or at the Winter Solstice for OUR salvation one Christmas Day.  Not His!

But, the birth of the Newborn King soon needed more help due to an evil king; from Matthew 2:

 “When the Magi had departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said,

“Rise, take the child and his mother, flee to Egypt,

and stay there until I tell you. Herod is going to search for the child to destroy him.”

14Joseph rose and took the child and his mother by night and departed for Egypt.

Without hesitation, at night, Joseph returned to the country so familiar to the people of Moses, of slavery, of the pharaohs especially Ramses. Obviously, it was now safer to go there than to stay and be the target of Herod’s wrath in Israel, the promised land.

We have evidence the Holy Family ended up in Cairo; you can Google Earth it yourself:

Bethlehem, just south of Jerusalem, is 270 miles to Giza if you travel southwest, skirting the Middle Earth Sea (Mediterranean)along the directional vector built into Giza.

This you may already know:  historically, there was a Jewish enclave, dating back to Alexander the Great, in the Egyptian city of Cairo, with both Jews and Egyptians peacefully living next to each other.

You’d think the perfect place for a Holy Family to spend a couple years of Holydays avoiding an egotistical evil king.  And not so coincidentally, they lived near Zeitoun, where Mary would reappear 1900 years later as the beloved mother of us all, the new Eve.  Mr. Abraham listened!   We all know God is a purpose-filled God and certainly NOT a wasteful Creator.

One obvious example is God created a life critical trace gas used by the godless and God & Creation haters as an excuse to rob others blind worldwide.  Carbon dioxide, yes CO2, numbers 422:million or about one (1) CO2 molecule in every 2500 air molecules.  Our beloved Pope Francis is scammed by a pervasive heresy known as the Algorean Heresy with its prophets of doom like John Fing Kerry, Al Gore and the other climate con artists.  Honestly, I am embarrassed how the Church typically wise scientists over the centuries,  buys into this cancerous fraud that gets worse every year.  Without this trace gas, life including human life ENDS on planet earth!

Couple this scientific quantum leap of CO2 knowledge, there is an easily implementable solution for the 3rd world:  “allowing” the export of inexpensive liquified natural gas (LNG)  throughout the world for heating, cooking even vehicle fuel; couple that with exporting agricultural innovation to feed the struggling world while continuing to drill wells throughout subsahara Africa since clean water IS doable.

God is NOT bashful about His Love for His Eternal Son and started early in history to point to Jesus as His Ultimate Eucharistic Gift.

The Worlds of Giza

Giza is many things: these following “Giza as…” sections are like different chapters of the Father’s Masterful work anchoring His earth; you need not read these sequentially and IF you have questions, criticisms and corrections, please do not hesitate to point them out.   Email to Lenbeckman@gmail.com writing GIZA in the subject field.

If one chapter is found wanting, your suggestions will be noted in the future.  This is a living work and its study is similar to the Tilma, the Shroud etc. : new revelations and corrections seem to occur continuously.  For example, Fr Spitzer keeps discovering better ways to see the Shroud as the True Burial cloth of our Eucharistic Lord.

But, the chapters are inter-related and captioned to draw your interest to the different aspects of this mystery monument in the desert.  The world’s largest monument at the center of God’s world.

The worlds of Giza

~Giza as the Solar Year

We need to first know that Giza, internally actually is a mysterious and unique calendar, among other fascinating things.

Instead of dates on a pad like a wall or daytimer calendar, the years are mapped out based on a key circular marking at the entrance passageway opening, that in 2141BC and 2007 AD was perfectly aligned with the Northern Star.  Those two years, we know the North Star shone to the bottom of the 344 foot passage.  Note: the ONLY  “pyramid” with significance below the surface

A unique key symbol called by scholars the “Pyramid Inch” or sacred Jewish inch.  And years are derived by measuring inch per mile with different junctions. More later on this.

But , let’s take a quick refresher on popular calendars.  The Chabad calendar is currently in year 5785, based on the lunar year, similar to what the Muslim follow: the phases of the moon.

As to Julian and now Gregorian, today’s western versions, it is based on the solar year not the moon.  And Giza is MORE accurate than common parlance on the length in days, hidden in plain sight in the Giza base perimeter.

For you budding astronomers, you know about leap year, I’m sure.  Every four years, since most people think a year around the sun is 365 1/4 days, we get an extra February day, the 29th.  But, unfortunately, it  doesn’t make up the missing time cleanly: every 100 years, since it’s not really a 1/4 day, sometimes you DON’T do the leap day.

Digging deeper, according to the site calendar-365.com:

“When it’s a leap year?  A leap year is a year with 366 days instead of 365; every 4 years in February one extra day is added. This is done because one year doesn’t contain 365 days but 365.25 days. By adding once in the 4 years one extra additional day this problem is solved. Any year that is divisible by 4 is a leap year, such as 2016, 2020, 2024, 2028.

Note: The above rule does not apply to century years.
Centuries such as 1900 and 2000 only have a leap day if they are divisible by 400.
1900 is divisible by 4 and also by 100, but not by 400, so not a leap year.
This means that centuries are only a leap year if they are divisible by 400. So 1900 is not, 2000 is, 2100, 2200, 2300 is not, but 2400 is another leap year.”

I’m sure the people at this site are well meaning, but the actual solar year, like a fine tuned watch, comes to 365.242  days.  NOT 1/4.   God IS extremely precise and all powerful, all knowing and the best: all loving to those who follow His Son.

Believe it or not, Giza has demonstrated this faithful length for four plus millennia by its external measurement, it’s circumference.  Each side of the monument measures 9131 inches.  This adds up to 36524 inches; look closely and you see an actual calendar solar year to five significant digits: 365 24.

Is  this coincidence?  OR a Godincidence?  Think about this: the modern calendar app I googled above is not as accurate as the 2.3 million block building/monument, apparently built/completed in 2623BC and inaugurated 2141BC based on the polar star line up.

We know that Stars and measurements have meaning, and pyramidologists and scientists much smarter than I have ascertained Giza is linked to the stars, AND the earth.  No accident of nature.  Easy to see other examples of this cosmic connections with earth and the heavens: the Bethlehem birth star. The stars that outline a star key-chart on Mary’s OLGuadalupe tilma:  using supercomputers, today we know, Mary is wearing the night sky from Dec 12, 1531 over Mexico City.  This defies natural explanations but it is easy for God to plan over centuries, even millennia of time.

The solar year is the one most commonly used in calendaring for the Western world; but there’s also the sidereal year:

“A sidereal year is the time that Earth or another planetary body takes to orbit the Sun once with respect to the fixed stars. It differs from the solar year due to the precession of the equinoxes and is used in some calendars and astrology.”

Sidereal year adds a full accurate day 366.24 to accommodate the equinoxes.  Why all this in a thesis about Giza?

Simple answer: religion, science, faith, to God they are all the same thing but we the people classify into categories.  Basically,  the Father wants us ALL to live happily forever.

So He planned from eternity past to create this universe, not for the angels, but for you…and me.  And if we realize how incredibly large AND yet micro the design and development, we would not doubt His abilities.

553 sextillion miles wide, billions of stars and planets, all things no angel, fallen or righteous, need.

So, UNDERSTANDING the Who and whys is something that helps all of us, as we help each other, to know the Truth.

The Truth which will set us free.

A basic understanding of the equinoxes, solstices, tropics and obliquity of the earth helps us see how infinitely refined Giza measurements truly are, corresponding to the infinite design of the Designer.

NEVER doubt your Maker.   

“Earth spins once a day on its axis of rotation, an imaginary line running through the North and South Poles. The spinning Earth orbits the Sun once a year, tracing out an imaginary disk called the orbital plane or ecliptic plane.”

Point of interest, the same Catholic astronomer who discovered God accurately counted the stars and informed Abraham of the amount (not 1000 as Galileo’s competition Danish Tycho Brahe believed) being in the multiple billions.

Note as well, Galileo was under house arrest for his mistake that the orbits were circular NOT elliptical.  But he did well, because science is NOT simple, clean and untested.  Galileo is a hero in a hall of heroes of Catholic leaders, many priests, over time who discovered more about God’s creation.

“Compared to its orbital plane, Earth’s axis of rotation is tilted by about 23.4 degrees. This is referred to as Earth’s axial tilt or obliquity.

Earth’s axial tilt remains the same throughout the year. The North Pole always points toward the star Polaris, while the South Pole points toward the much dimmer star Polaris Australis. However, as Earth travels along its orbit, its tilt changes with respect to the Sun.

For six months of the year, the North Pole is tilted toward the Sun, and the Sun lies somewhere above the Northern Hemisphere. For the other six months, the South Pole is tilted toward the Sun, and the Sun lies somewhere overhead the Southern Hemisphere.

The Equinoxes

There are only two moments each year when neither pole points toward the Sun, and the Sun lies directly above Earth’s equator. These moments are called the equinoxes.

The March equinox happens sometime between March 19 and 21. The September equinox occurs sometime between September 21 and 24.

In the Northern Hemisphere, the March equinox is also known as the spring or vernal equinox; the September equinox can be called the fall or autumnal equinox. In the Southern Hemisphere, the names are the other way around.

On the date of the equinox, at any location, the lengths of day and night are roughly equal.

Equilux: when day and night are (actually) equal

Here’s my conjecture:  God put the lights in the sky and set them in motion, as well as the comets, planets and possibly a trillion celestial objects total.  Infinitely precise, and He not we maintain their travels.

We know the activities of the Garden and Jesus’ birth happen in the Northern Hemisphere so this is why our dates track that half of the earth above the Equator.

But mankind determined calendars to track, whether moon or sun based, all four seasons and starting  over.   Proof of God’s precision is the solar year continues to be 365.24 days each.  Suppose, the particulars of salvation history can more “align” with a well made calendar?  We will look at this later.  Two equinoxes, and two…

The Solstices

The farthest points from the equator where the Sun can appear directly overhead are referred to as the tropics.

The tropics are lines of latitude that circle the Earth above and below the equator, at about 23.4 degrees north and south. This angle is set by Earth’s axial tilt.

There are two moments each year when one of Earth’s poles is tilted the most toward the Sun, and the Sun lies directly above one of the tropics. These moments are the solstices.

The June solstice takes place sometime between June 20 and 22, when the Sun is directly above the Tropic of Cancer in the Northern Hemisphere. As a rough guide, the Tropic of Cancer passes through Mexico, northern Africa, the Middle East, India, and China.  (Author’s point: Giza is in Northern Africa)

The December solstice happens sometime between December 20 and 23, when the Sun is directly over the Tropic of Capricorn in the Southern Hemisphere. In brief, the Tropic of Capricorn runs through South America, southern Africa, and Australia.

In the Northern Hemisphere, the June solstice and December solstice can be referred to as the summer solstice and winter solstice. In the Southern Hemisphere, June is winter and December is summer.

On the date of the summer solstice, all locations in that hemisphere experience their longest days and shortest nights. The winter solstice produces the shortest days and longest nights.

Remarkable truth:  Giza becomes 8 sided two times a year, at dusk and dawn.   Discovered recently, the solstices do more than mark time.   Giza exhibits their four primary sides become eight sides via shadows at the beginning and end of each Northern Hemisphere solstice ANNUALLY.  The spiritual significance is detailed later, but it will amaze you.

Supplemental: Proving NOTHING is random with God: Equinoxes and Solstices on Other Planets

Every planet in the solar system, apart from Mercury, is tilted on its axis of rotation. This means each planet has its own equinoxes and solstices

Venus and Jupiter have small axial tilts of 2.6* and 3.1 degrees, respectively. Venus orbits the Sun more quickly than Earth—in Earth time, an equinox or solstice happens on Venus every couple of months or so. Jupiter orbits more slowly; an equinox or solstice occurs there about every three Earth years.

Mars, Saturn, and Neptune have tilts similar to Earth’s: the values are 25.2, 26.8, and 28.3 degrees, respectively. At the equinoxes on Saturn, the planet’s famous rings appear edge-on as seen from Earth.”

When God fixed the “lights” in the sky, He was deliberative  and intentional.  It was a lot more than just jamming the moon and sun in place

I surmise so much of His design focuses us, much like the inspired word/Word on parchment, on His plans for us on earth and His gift of eternity. 

But His Ultimate Gift remains: His Eucharistic Son.  As I am trying to demonstrate, Giza is just the shiny light on the hill, so to speak, actually on the desert floor…before it was stripped of its outer garment of brilliant mirrored limestone cover/casing stones, that pointed His human race to His Son.  Redundant to say the Eucharistic Lord is the ultimate thanksgiving gift?  Maybe.

For those who traveled to Indianapolis July 2024, most know we have had periodic Eucharistic celebrations over the years, in the US and internationally.   Notably the 65,000 gathered in Bishop Cozzen’s led 5 day event at Lucas Oil stadium, Indianapolis, IN  July, 2024.  Soon after, another Eucharistic celebration took place in a special city: Quito.

Before you know it: in the US,  2033 is expected to be a prudential large celebration of the Ultimate Gift, the 2000th anniversary of His Bloodless AND Bloody events: the Last Supper (first neo Passover) and Friday the 13th day of Abib: Calvary.

Yet, friends, please realize we don’t need to wait for the next gathering: Jesus is available for our visitation in every Catholic church across the world, as well as for Holy Hours when the Ultimate Gift is exposed for worship.  As I study Giza’s role in history, I believe the Renaissance follows the Revival: God located the exact CENTER of His World and designed/built the World’s Largest Monument to His Eucharistic Son.

~Giza as the Salvation History Compass whose needle points to Middle Earth Sea and the City of David

Anyone who uses ‘Goggle Earth’ to locate Giza will see why, as it lines up with the device’s screen, why it deserves a  compass designation. Same for the inner world at the microscopic levels.

From the macro to the mini world of inner space, there is 35-75 trillion cells per body, starting with only two homo sapiens sapiens: Adam and Eve, male and female.   This gender affirmation stuff is pure evil. Mutilating teen breasts, castrating young men.  Does this sound Godly or demonic?  Easy answer except to the godless who worship zero as their god..

Yet believe what you want: God’s designs work.  It’s may be okay to play dress up and join the Pretenders Society but God wants US to know Him as He God is.  NOT all these recreations in so many areas.  Especially interfering with His design for mankind.

Suppose we recently discovered a physical directional device that dates back 4600 years. You open it up and it points directly over the spot where the Israelites and Moses left the clutches of their Egyptian enslavers, never to return.    And suppose the same unique vector from the directional device points 270 miles away, skirting the Mediterranean Sea and targeting the House of Bread.

We sing about the city, also called Beth’lehem at Christmas time each year. The blue line/vector heading out of Giza at 26 degrees 18 minutes 9.63 seconds of angular arc shows this phenomena.  270 or 3x3x3x10 miles away to the stable of Christmas, in the House of Meat as the Muslims state, OR as in God’s tradition and that of Israel, the House of Bread OF LIFE!

To see how important to God and mankind the actual city of the House of Bread is, let’s reverse engineer a little, maybe 4600 years ago.

First question: where does the blue line above come from?  The entry and descending passageways in Giza have the angle 26 degrees 18 min  9.63 secs.    Since Giza is off only 3 seconds of arc, it makes the perfect compass with the “needle” pointing directly to Bethlehem.  (See the map picture above)

Believe it or let me prove it, 4600+ years ago, God planted the world’s largest stone monument, marker, pillar, even altar at the exact center of the World. 

The giant monument and marker is still there but in a terribly run down condition.  This marker was not a Star Trek civilization fossil, but remains to this day, silent in its magnificence, the last remaining wonder of the World. The brilliant Giza at the top is an artist’s rendering what it appeared as before the historic earthquake.

It also is a Catholic icon, which I hope to prove to my fave bishops, priests, lay friends and relatives, and the occasional atheist.

Breaking down the details.   It’s NOT just a pyramid in the classic geometry way.

It’s called Giza which translates to “Border”.  It’s “last name” is pyramidos, which transmorphs into the real name of this magnificent monument:  “Border fire in the middle”.  These can be readily explained below.

In another blog post I wrote, there is much more detail.  But God desires ALL of us to live forever, to discover Him and to “know, love and serve” our God. He does not rely just on scriptures but other objects and images to further the Maybe the world’s largest “building” can help the minds of the math motivated, the CSI/NCIS investigative types, see salvation history better.

Walk a bit farther with this author and fellow adventurer.

Giza IS located at the exact Center of the World. 

Prove it for yourself: take a globe and draw a line across the largest amount of land (a line that touches the most, ie land meridian) both east-west and north-south. Geographically, you will find the center near Cairo in Egypt.  Where have we heard that city before?

It also crisscrosses in the ocean on the other side but the fact on the exact Center of the World, exists an almost timeless marker only Creator God could position.

Theologically, Jesus the Christ IS the exact Center of OUR world, of history (ie His Story) formerly labeled BC or Before Christ and AD or Anno Domini, ie ‘in the year of the Lord’.

In a real sense, He is the Center of Eternity as we exist in the middle of timelessness as well.

More interesting,  Giza is the largest Compass on earth and one of the most accurate, off positionally by only three seconds of arc.  When you Google Earth “Giza” and zoom in, the Giza Pyramid lines up intrinsically and accurately with your computer screen.

Of import, at one time, it was covered with mirror bright ‘casing’ stones intricately joined, numbering an estimated 144,000 until they were stripped over centuries following a strong earthquake seven hundred years ago.

Why God allowed the earth shake is His call, not mine.  But it made for thousands of precut stones for minarets, mosques and other buildings in the Middle East.  Like the Giving Tree story, Giza has contributed in many ways to humanity.

Once discovered, the entryway (17, the Biblical number of ‘victory’, steps up) led down a passageway 344 feet to the bottom.  Of importance to what and why it existed, the passageway’s angularity measures 26 degrees, 18  minutes, 9.63 seconds.

The map graphic shows where it sits and how the angle plots out when rotated 90 degrees to the northeast of Cairo from the Center of the World.   I may be getting ahead of myself, but I believe the Father God foreshadowed, in various ways, His giving His Ultimate Gift, His Beloved Son mentioned at the Jordan baptism, conceived by a miraculous event through the Holy Spirit: born near in time (or ON the Winter Solstice) in the “no room at the inn” cave in the House of Bread of Life.

Geographically, notice where it points.  Then think of it theologically.  It points to Jesus’ birth in the New Testament after pointing to where the Israelites escaped (Red/Reed Sea), with their God’s help, on the same 26+degree heading.

Combine us with the mysteries of the House of Bread/Bethlehem Star, and things get most interesting.

The story of the Israelites escape from Pharaoh’s tyranny, Exodus is the OLD testament.  Bethlehem, the old and the new.  In the Old, the 7th century before Christ, prophet Isaiah has an intriguing verse sequence:

“On that day there shall be an altar to the LORD at the center of Egypt, and a sacred pillar to the LORD near its boundary

This will be a sign and witness to the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt, so that when they cry out to the LORD because of their oppressors, He will send them a savior to defend and deliver them…”

The oral/written Scriptures from the most prolific Christ prophet, Isaiah.

~Giza as the answer to prophecy

Fascinating verses but what has this ancient scripture to do with our modern Church?

I truly wonder if this Isaiah prophecy applies to Giza, the last of the great wonders of the ancient world.  The bold in red words/phrases above point to aspects of the Giza experience covered next.

1. “Altar of the Lord”

   .  In Egypt? I thought they worshipped the pharoah, the purpose of all the other pyramids! Not the Lord God. But no pharaoh god was buried in the first and great Giza.  ALL of them, over 100, had their own custom made pyramidal shaped coffins Hmm.

In the OT, altars were places of bloody sacrifice.  Often, in the desert, a holocaust or animal was sacrificed to honor God as the people knew Him.

Recall, Abraham was commanded by God to sacrifice his son, Isaac to the God of Creation.  Yet, God stayed Abraham’s hand in killing his son and substituted a ram in the thicket.

That was both a bloodless sacrifice of the heart of Abraham, in obeying God and sparing Isaac; and a bloody one, in the ram/lamb God provided for the sacrifice.

Yet, historically, the last (and the first) bloodless sacrifice was at the altar in the upper room we know as the Last Supper and First Mass.  This “altar” of the Eucharist institution prefigured by a day the very bloody sacrifice on the Cross of Life on Good Friday. And there are unmistakable links to this time in Giza.

Supposition: in the New Testament, suppose the 4600 year old 30 sf (or a match for the 14 x 3 foot Shroud and Council of Trent altar measurement?) flat top of Giza is an altar awaiting the bloodless and glorious return of the true Cornerstone of the whole New World of faith, of the Catholic Church: Jesus the Christ.

We know Jesus is our Savior (mentioned in the Isaiah quote) and we are the Bride of Christ.  But more than symbolically, I wonder if that altar top is where Jesus meets the Bride of Christ, the Church for the last time as heaven beckons all. It’s ok to discern…

Think about it; at my and your Catholic wedding (if married!), four marks should be reflected upon: FREEDOM to choose each other, two become one in TOTALITY, as we will be united with Christ forever.  Also, we pledge as one male and female total fidelity, ie faithfulness to each other, the man as the archetype of Christ sacrificing everything, even life to death for our new spouse, the bride of our dreams.  As we dads pledge our love, honor and protection for the children that God will provide to most of us.

WE humans pledge “until death do us part”.  But Jesus’ pledge, already sealed at the Crucifixion as the sacrificed Lamb of God, the true Passover alluded to as the Israelites escaped Egypt.  The “Christ Angle” as it is called (26+degree) forms a vector that skirts the Mediterranean (Middle Earth) Sea after passing over the place where the Israelites passed out of Egypt.

Wow!!!  There were two pillars of Solomon at the Exodus spot where historically the Chosen people crossed the Red Sea; Saudi Arabia, not a fan of JudeoChristian spirituality, has replaced the one on their side with a flag (sadly), but the Giza “vector” continues on to complete its 270 mile “journey” to the House of Bread (the Bread of the Universe).

We know this city, this destination spot, as Bethlehem.

Was it an accident that angle of entry now the angle of exit points to the city of Jesus’ birth?  God does nothing by accident, being a loving purposeful God.   Our Father has looked forward for all eternity to His Son being the Ultimate Eucharist Gift (the Gift that keeps on giving daily) and directed our sights in words and images, symbolic and real to the future.

Giza is a four sided structure, yet it appears eight sided on the solstices at dawn and dusk (explained later) built WITHOUT a capstone.

A cornerstone for the top corner of the pyramid shaped object is missing; leaving only about 30 sq ft of flat surface.

Could this be the “altar of the Lord” planted in Egypt that Isaiah refers to?  It’s been there since 2621BC. Pyramidologists and scholars believe the time line begins at 2141BC when the North Star first shown down its 344 foot descending passageway to the bottom; last time a North Star shown down the entry passage to the bottom, fyi, was 2007 AD. The world did not end but…

Some scholars surmise, since there are only two markings in Giza, one a map scale “pyramid” or “sacred Jewish” inch.  And a circle scored in the rock in the passageway, they see this as a starting point for a “time line” of history.  His Story.

If this timeline of prophetic history is real, it is amazing.

For example, using this one year per inch motif, the transition point is 1453 AD when the descending entry passage reaches the ascending passage to the Queen and King’s separate chambers.

Is anything significant about that year?  How about this: the Fall of Constantinople, (May 29, 1453) and conquest of the city by Sultan Mehmed II of the Ottoman Empire.

The dwindling Byzantine Empire came to an end when the Ottomans breached Constantinople’s ancient land wall after besieging the city for 55 days. Mehmed surrounded Constantinople from land and sea while employing cannons to maintain a constant barrage of the city’s formidable walls.

Sounds significant…more on this later.

2 “Center of Egypt”   (Center of the World too!)

This is interesting and a tricky one.  At one time, there were two Egypts, lower and upper.  This is how the Isaiah verses can make sense, should we understand that King Menes united the two Egypts around the year 2900 BC in Egypt’s early dynastic period.  He founded his capital at Memphis, pictured here.

So, Giza is at the border of one and in the middle of the other; Giza divided Egypt it is believed.  Notice the “Lower Egypt” is at the northern end of the life giving Nile as it dumps into the Mediterranean.

King Menes is known to have redirected the Nile as well but understand what he did do, fits well in the actual translation of “Giza Pyramid”:

“Border Fire in the Middle”

3)  “Sacred Pillar”.

Giza, not only the world’s largest compass and timekeeper, it is a pillar made sacred by its placement and focus on Jesus.  And features unique to it.

Of course, the pharaohs built their super ego burial places, but Giza had no body, no capstone, only a worn, empty coffer with the same dimensions as that of the Ark of the Covenant.  Not Mary’s womb, the new testament Ark of the New Covenant, but the Ark of Solomon that no man could touch in transit. Recall what was INSIDE the Ark:

Ark of the  Old Covenant

“Interestingly, the most complete inventory of the contents of the ark of the covenant is found in the New Testament: Hebrews 9:4 says that the Most Holy Place had “the gold-covered ark of the covenant. This ark contained the gold jar of manna, Aaron’s staff that had budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant.” The stone tablets were those on which God had written the Ten Commandments.

God made a conditional covenant with the children of Israel through His servant Moses. He promised good to them and their children for generations if they obeyed Him and His laws, but He always warned of despair, punishment, and dispersion if they were to disobey. As a reminder of His covenant, the Lord had the Israelites make a box, according to His design, to house the stone tablets containing the Ten Commandments. This box, or ark, was to be kept in the inner sanctum of the wilderness tabernacle and eventually in the temple when it was built in Jerusalem. This chest is known as the ark of the covenant.

Moses instructed Bezalel, God’s anointed craftsman, to build the ark of the covenant (see Exodus 37:1–9; 25:10–22). The “sacred chest” was to be a rectangular wooden box made from acacia wood, overlaid “inside and out with pure gold,” measuring approximately “45 inches long, 27 inches wide, and 27 inches high” (Exodus 37:1–2, NLT). The chest was fitted with two pairs of gold rings on either side in which permanent poles were inserted for transporting the ark. No one was allowed to touch the ark out of reverence for God’s holiness. The poles were also fashioned with acacia wood and overlaid with gold.

The ark of the covenant was built to contain the two tablets of the law given to Moses by God (Exodus 25:16, 21). These tablets were also known as “the testimony,” and thus, the ark was also called “the ark of the testimony” (see Numbers 4:5, Joshua 4:16, ESV). In the original Hebrew, the word translated as “testimony” refers both to the terms of God’s covenant with Israel as written on the tablets of stone and to the covenant itself. Later, Moses had Aaron place inside the ark a jar of manna to remember God’s faithfulness in providing miraculous bread from heaven (Exodus 16:4, 33) and Aaron’s staff that had budded as a warning against rebellion (Numbers 17:1–13; Hebrews 9:4).

A lid called the “mercy seat” or “the place of atonement” was constructed for the box (see Exodus 25:17). The mercy seat was made of pure gold and covered the entire length and width of the chest. Bezalel crafted two cherubim from hammered gold and molded them atop each end of the mercy seat so that the whole lid was one solid piece of gold. The cherubim faced each other and looked down on the mercy seat with their wings spread wide, overshadowing and protecting it.

The real significance of the ark of the covenant involved the mercy seat. The Hebrew word for “mercy seat” meant “cover, appeasement, or place of atonement.” Once a year, the high priest entered the holy of holies where the ark of the covenant was kept, and here he atoned for his sins and the sins of the Israelite people (Leviticus 16:2–16). Seven times, the priest sprinkled the blood of sacrificed bulls and goats onto the mercy seat. This atonement on Yom Kippur appeased God’s wrath and anger for past sins committed.

The lid of the ark of the covenant was termed a “seat” because this sacred place was considered God’s holy throne (see Psalm 99:1). Here, the Lord spoke to Moses from between the winged cherubim (Numbers 7:89). Here, where the sacrificial blood was sprinkled and God’s mercy was dispensed, was the only place in the world where atonement could take place.

The mercy seat on the ark was a symbolic foreshadowing of the ultimate sacrifice for all sin—the blood of Christ shed on the cross for the remission of sins (Hebrews 7:27; 9:12–14; 1 Peter 1:18–19). The apostle Paul, a former Pharisee and one familiar with the Old Testament, knew this concept quite well when he wrote about Christ being our covering for sin in Romans 3:24–25: “And all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith.”

Just as there was only one place for atonement of sins in the Old Testament—the mercy seat of the ark of the covenant—so there is also only one place for atonement in the New Testament—the cross of Jesus Christ (1 John 2:2; 1 Peter 3:18). As Christians, we no longer look to the ark but to the Lord Jesus Himself as the One who covers, cleanses, cancels, and atones for our sins (1 John 4:10).

As the Israelites traveled from Mount Sinai to Canaan, the ark of the covenant was to be carried before them through the wilderness as a constant reminder of God’s holy, living presence (Numbers 10:33–36). The ark played a central role in Israel’s entrance into the Promised Land (Joshua 3:3, 6, 15–16; 4:9; 6:4–16) and the life of God’s people there (Joshua 8:33; Judges 20:26–28).

Eventually, Israel lost sight of the ark’s true significance. In 1 Samuel 4, the nation was battling the Philistines. When the Israelites suffered a loss, rather than deal with the real problem—sin—they fetched the ark and took it into battle. They viewed the ark as little more than a talisman or ceremonial token that would ensure God’s help. As a result, they suffered another defeat, and God allowed the ark to be captured by the Philistines (1 Samuel 4:1–11, 17–22; 5:1–12). But the hand of the Lord was heavy on the Philistines, so they returned the ark (1 Samuel 6:1–3, 10–15, 19; 7:1–2).

Much later, King David had the ark brought to Jerusalem (2 Samuel 6:1–12, 17), and when his son Solomon completed the temple, the ark and all the tabernacle furnishings were placed inside the temple (1 Kings 8:1–12).

The Bible doesn’t say precisely when the ark of the covenant was lost to history. Some speculate it was destroyed or potentially removed during various raids (see 1 Kings 14:25–28; 2 Kings 14:8–14). The last time the location of the ark is mentioned in Scripture is when King Josiah ordered the caretakers of the ark to return it to the Jerusalem temple (2 Chronicles 35:1–6; cf. 2 Kings 23:21–23). The ark is not cited in the list of temple spoils that Nebuchadrezzar took to Babylon when Jerusalem was sacked (2 Kings 25:13–17; Jeremiah 52:17–23).

The origins of Israel’s ark of the covenant are as mysterious and fascinating as its current whereabouts and final destiny. Archeologists and treasure hunters have sought to find it for centuries. In Revelation 11:19, John sees the ark of the covenant as part of the future heavenly temple. However, this is probably not the same ark Moses built; instead, the heavenly ark is more likely a symbolic representation of God’s holy presence.

Ark of the New Covenant~Mary

xxxxxxxxx

How did Khfu Construction Inc. know this, not to mention an Egyptian pharoah would care little about Jewish religious history.

This last bit should be mulled and understood: God dictated the dimensions of the Ark of the Covenant, both the old testament one during David/Solomon and the organic one, whom God knew for all eternity past: Mary ever Virgin.

It is hard to visualize today, but the true translation (Fire in the Middle) of pyra-midos focuses on the incredible brilliance of the mirror stone covered object, Giza.  Unique property of light is how it is focused like the thousands of focused mirrors in the Mojave Calif desert to generate electricity, Ivanpah project, now being scrapped for inefficiency

Those Giza cover stones were “quarried” actually robbed off Giza after the aforementioned earthquake, moved off the structure over centuries (not easy to steal all 144,000 stones in a year) and used for minarets and mosques in the nearby muslim neighborhoods.

But, before the ‘regifting’ of the hard limestone polished bright blocks, it WAS a sacred pillar, viewed as if on fire, especially mid day on the Spring Equinox when it featured NO shadow.

This last is very important: it’s maximum “fire” effect, its brightest point was high noon on the Spring Equinox (I wonder March 25th?).  What took place at that time one year (33ad) in history?  Answer:Jesus was dying on the cross and the “sun refused to shine” for 3 hours.  Giza would “refuse to shine” as well, ie NO massive fire effect, totally dark.

Grasp this reality: for 26 centuries, it could be seen from the moon, especially at his high point; this Friday the 13th month of Abib separated old and new, the past and future of His Story.  NO LIGHT as if the Light of the World was going out.

I believe, as you could, God designed it this way, the whole solar system’s properties.  The designers of the new Assumption church at St Michael’s Abbey did it as well.  At about 4pm, evening vespers the same sun shines through the Rose Window and focuses light ON THE ALTAR.

God leaves nothing to chance; He is precise.

He created the earth’s 23.4 degree angularity, and with four transitioning seasonal points: spring equinox, the summer solstice, fall equinox and winter solstice.  We will look at the Northern Hemisphere; in astronomy, the reasons are simple.

The first day of new life, rebirth from the winter so to speak in the Northern Hemisphere, of spring, the sun rises over Bethlehem viewed from Giza.  More fascinating, all year Giza does have a shadow: but at high noon on the Spring Equinox, it was at its MAX brightness with ZERO shadow.

Today, we celebrate spring’s return on March 20-21st.  Suppose, with a four day correction, God conformed the seasonal changes for His prophetic purposes to the 25th’s?

If it was March 25th, you have Spring Equinox coinciding with the date of Mary’s annunciation (Jesus’ conception) and as the Church tradition has it, his death as well.  You may or may not know that Jesus died on March 25th (gregorian calendar) and Friday the 13th in the Hebrew month of Abib (wonder why the secular calls Friday the 13ths “unlucky?”)

Conjecture: God’s prophecy ‘calendar’ does not conform to just the oral tradition, written Scriptures and printed Bibles: He uses 3D materials, symbols and supplements a reference to an important eternal truth in multiple ways.

Simply put, for you budding Biblical salvation history archeologic types, this 4 day offset puts the winter solstice on the day Jesus is born; reinforcing this truth is the solstice phenomena that the four sided “pyramid” appears as an 8 sided object at both the beginning (dawn) and ending (dusk) of  the day, on June 25th and Dec 25th, also His birthday.

A bit in the weeds here, but at dawn and dusk on the solstices, Giza appears as an EIGHT sided object. What is importance of eight (8) in salvation history?

8 is Jesus’ number; 888 is Jesus number magnified!

Supposition: we need to prove 8 is Jesus’ number.  In fact His name alphanumerically is 888 as the graphic shown here.  Greek and Hebrew assign numbers to their letters…and translated, Jesus becomes 888.

Scholars believe 8 represents new birth, rebirth, resurrection when it is used in scripture; same is confirmed in life.  Think music, sound and light.

Apply to music (the 8th note is like the first but as a harmonic); in Noah’s time, 8 humans remained and floated in the ark, an actual “rebirth” of mankind. A week has seven days, but renews on Monday or the 8th day. You can think of additional examples, I am sure!

It’s not superstition though we need be careful: many numbers have Biblical implications and purposes.

12 tribes and 12 apostles; 144 in revelations (12×12)on governance and the number of Giza casing stones x 1000 or the reference to 144,000 cover stones.

Seven (7) is the number of perfection (days in the week, whole notes in the scale, 7 days of creation etc.),

The number 3 refers to the Trinity, which God wants us to learn more about over time. Not an easy task to figure out.

AND, one of the reasons for this blog.

As St Augustine couldn’t figure it out, certainly it will not be fully known until heaven. Even then, friends, how will we understand how God has existed as a Trinitarian “family” FOREVER previous?

This is why, since eternity past and future, mathematically are identical vectors, I contend we live each day IN THE MIDDLE OF ETERNITY/INFINITY.

But we only match God day by day looking forward…basically math brains: we humans live IN the middle of eternity, but God has existed FROM eternity past and exists in the exact middle…something even Fr. Holy Joe Horn, Fr Edmund, our bishops or other smart people can’t truly fathom.  Nor can I; it’s called the Augustine Conundrum…

Fascinating, Giza has existed (~2623BC) before and WHILE early salvation history was unfolding.  It’s importance dates from 2141BC when Giza is used as a prophetic timeline based on when the North Star first shown down the very long entry passage to the 344 foot bottom.

But, from Genesis 1, when God gives us a hint in “Let US make man in our image”, He also points to His Son via the Giza Christ Angle that is built into the Giza’s internal passageways. As any proud Father would!  He just has more power, infinitely more than any of us human dads.

Fast forward to the Jordan baptism: the Holy Spirit is visible as a dove, as the Father’s booming voice shouts “This is my beloved Son…”.   Yes, no mention in Biblical text this Trinity word…but neither does other things like ice cream.

Lucky for us, there is further proof that 13 is both the date of Christ’s death in the Hebrew calendar (Friday the 13th, month of Abib) and the sequential Marian Fatima appearances (May 13, June 13 etc).  In other writings, I posit why six 13s in a row instead of the 3rd Saturday or 4th Tuesday of each month: God used His mother’s visits as further confirmation that 3 in 1 or 1 out of 3, ie 13, is an important aspect of Whom He Is.

Number 17 and 153…We know there are 17 steps to the entrance passageway of Giza: in the Bible, 17 is the number associated with victory.  For the math wise, like Fr Joe Horn and Fr Edmund both Premonstratensian Norbertine priests, 17 is also a component of Jesus’ 153 caught fish after Resurrection.

Always dig deep! Why would the Gospels mention an exact haul at 153 after a fruit less err fish less night on the water?

This is another confirmation to me that God has immense perfect mathematical abilities: 17 x 3 x 3 equals 153, no arbitrary number, reflecting in a way the victory of the Trinity multiplied by the Trinity.

Jesus was showing the Apostles who traveled with Him, the abundance of the fields that need their work as the Church (Harvest is great, but the laborers are few).  More interesting, maybe of import, 153 is also a sum, ie. 1+2+3…+17, amplifying the importance of this number in salvation history.

Math, like the other sciences, religion, truth and faith is intertwined in God’s view of the universe; it’s us imperfect humans that overly compartmentalize everything.   Sometimes, first grade level “Baltimore” catechesis is the best:

God just wants us to “KNOW Him, LOVE Him and SERVE Him” for our own good.

================

More on sacred Pillars…

Pillars are common in the world. We have the obelisk pillar in Washington DC; the Solomonic pillars that mark the Red Sea miracle of parted Nile waters and now you’ve heard of the “Pillar of Fire” in Giza that predated the pillar of fire that guided the Israelites out of Egypt after the 10th plague, the first Passover.  Our Lady of the Pillar in 40AD, Mary’s bilocation experience with St James.

Point is, God gently taught us about His True Nature as ONE God with 3 persons, 1 3. Maybe WHY God sent Mary to Fatima on earth six times, on successive 13ths, instead of a monthly first Saturday.  Also, not coincidental, Fatima being the city named for the former Muslim wife of a Catholic prince in Portugal.

Mary set the record straight in 1917, 3 years after that junction point inside Giza of 1914.  Hmm.

4) “Boundary” Border.  xxxxxxxxx

Discussed previously, Giza literally means “border”.  NOT the Taco Bell or Southern American former Border, but the Boundary of a portion of Egypt.  Refer to King Menes about 2900bc who diverted the Nile and unified Egypt.

5)”Sign and witness to the Lord”

This is a very important aspect of Giza.  IF the time machine aspect of Giza is real, its beginning at 2141C with the North Star’s light hitting the bottom below ground 344 feet away, it also leads to junctures with other significant dates:

33AD as the Crucifixion, which begins the Grand Gallery (reportedly the Grand Galley was open for a period of time so the locals could view the stars.  Who knows?) toward the Queen Chamber level and ascending to the King’s Gallery.  Look at the graphic created by Mr Rutherford.

Side note: Emanations to 1453AD proves it is timeless…and that Jesus promised the Church would endure through all time, despite even modern foolish prostiticians in Israel or DC trying hard to kill it off.

Though the Ottoman Sultan broke into Byzantine Constantinople and turned it into Istanbul, the Church endures throughout the world.

We are in interesting, stressful times on God’s green earth.  Battered by foolish, evil doctrines; embattled in so many ways fighting for Truth, Justice and in America, the American way.  Old but necessary words to fight for.

Then there is 1453 BC… what is SIGNificant about that year?  Could it be the year the Israelites actually entered the promised land after years of wandering?

Well, it begins the ascending passageway.  Then there is 1521AD, as the descending passage continues BELOW ground level.  The year is significant in our backyard when Hernan Cortes ended the rule of Montezuma and Technochtitlan (Mexico City) with 175 barefoot Franciscan friars preaching the gospel to the local Nahautl/Aztec people. Though 10 years later, the arrival of OLGuadalupe led to millions of converts to the Catholic faith.  And the image and the story of Mary’s appearance remain intact today.

After all, God KNOWS the future even as you read this, as the Trinity HAS known from eternity past.  Chew on that St Augustine! Good example IS Mary’s Guadalupe tilma/cloak. How?  The Creator at Creation set in motion the constellations and stars such that on Dec 12, 1531, the constellation Leo (of the Tribe of Judah, ie Jesus) hovered over Mary’s womb and the constellation Virgo the Virgin was over Mary’s heart in the image.  Scientists lined up the other constellations using the star map Mary’s stars pointed to.  No human nor super parallel processing computer could arrange this.

Signs TO the world.

Fulfilled two millennia afterwards, and discovered recently with the Christ Angle (26 degrees etc.) applied to the land, Giza is an extent directional sign to the world that Jesus, the Bread of Life, the life-giving unblemished and innocent Passover Lamb was born in the House of Bread. It  foreshadows  the importance of wine and wheat bread unleavened becoming Himself, body and blood, soul and divinity and the Source and Summit of our faith.  Daily.

Today, if the scales fall away from our eyes, we see that the irrefutable evidence of a Creator’s existence is the world’s largest Sign and Witness object that points directly to an important city, Beth’lehem only 270 miles away; to the Godhead that required all three Persons to validate the promise in that city on a date Catholic tradition (March 25) honors just nine months before the House of Bread (city)  housed (stable near the inn) we know as the Bread of Life.

The unfathomable Trinity I believe is also pointed to within the last wonder of the ancient and modern world, Giza. The hanging gardens of Babylon are gone, Giza remains.  God went BIG actually Biggest when He created His Son’s birth reveal in the world’s largest stone sculpture.  So many titles but I like the Monument to the King of king’s birth and the early Eucharist marker long before the Last Supper.

Its altar top waiting for the Cornerstone (ie Capstone) to return in glory?  I don’t know.  To Jerusalem? Or less than 300 miles away on the Giza plain.  Only the Trinity knows.  Yes, the word Trinity does not appear in Scripture, but irrefutable though tough to understand proof exists.

Another experience of “Trinity”, just before all three Persons expressed themselves in the muddy Jordan at Jesus’ Baptism around age 30, was at His and Mary’s Annunciation we celebrate March 25th.

A date I suspect marked the Spring Equinox millennia ago.   Three months later, the Summer Solstice and the Giza feature of Jesus’ number is shown twice each year, with 8 sided imagery in the shadows. Six more and we celebrate the birth of the New King that Herod feared, the Winter Solstice, with the Light of the World greeting the shortest day of the year filling it with His Love and Life.  Herod feared the Savior so much he killed upwards of some thousands of innocent young boys less than two years old.

A minor side track that illuminates the huge contrast of the darkness being broken by the Light of Christ, foreshadowed at Creation with the darkness and light separation of space, involves our English slave turned bishop of Eire, St Patrick. Worth a brief look, seeing the eternal allegories of light vs darkness, and attempts to share both Trinity and Christ:

~Giza and Bethlehem

Biblically, it is the place of the death of Rachel, the birth of David and Jesus, and the marriage of Ruth and Boaz.  It is known as the House of Meat to the Muslims, and the House of Bread to the Jews.  And it is the city called out for the Magi to visit to give gifts to the Ultimate Gift, the King of kings.

Bethlehem (/ˈbɛθlɪhɛm/; Arabic: بيت لحم, Bayt Laḥm, pronunciation^ⓘ; Hebrew: בֵּית לֶחֶם Bēṯ Leḥem)

Why was it important for God to point to the birthplace of David with Giza, as well as His Son?  Boaz, a prefigure type of the Savior, was married to Ruth in Bethlehem. In fact, here is seven ideas regarding Boaz prefiguring Jesus.

1. Boaz was from Bethlehem – Ruth 2:4; Jesus was born in Bethlehem – Luke 2:4, Matthew 2:6
2. Boaz is a type of Christ because of his Godly character and grace-filled compassion. Boaz notices Ruth, talks to her, tells her to abide in his field with his maidens, and shows her grace. This reminds us of Jesus’ encouragement to abide in John 15. Like Boaz, Jesus has pity on us, calls us out, brings us into His field to labor alongside His workers, and gives grace.
3. Boaz provides for Ruth like Jesus provides for us. He invites Ruth to drink when she’s thirsty (Ruth 2:9), and to eat his bread and corn (Ruth 2:14). Similarly, Jesus fed people physically and spiritually. A few examples are in Mark 8:2-9, Luke 9, and in John 6:35, where Jesus says He is the Bread of Life. Jesus satisfies every hunger and thirst and supplies our every need.
4. Another way that Boaz is a type of Christ is seen in Ruth 2:1, where he is described as a “mighty man of wealth”. This means Boaz was a man of power and strength, a valiant, honorable man. Jesus is the strongest and most virtuous man to ever live. He is all-powerful and a mighty man indeed!
5. Boaz is a gentleman. He doesn’t force himself on Ruth, like Jesus doesn’t force himself on us. He patiently waits for us to come to Him. In Ruth 3:10-13, Boaz is obviously pleased with Ruth’s request to redeem her, but He is careful to do it properly. This resembles the way that Jesus always did things according to God’s will and in His timing.
6. In Ruth 3:15-17, Boaz sends Ruth away with six measures of barley as a sign of his promise to marry her. That was called a dowry, which was given to the bride’s family as a seal of the betrothal. Boaz is a type of Christ because Jesus gives the Holy Spirit to believers as a down payment for their inheritance. (2Cor. 1:22, 2Cor. 5:5, Eph. 1:13-14 and 4:30.)
7. Boaz is a type of Christ as our Redeemer. Ruth 4:9-11 is the account of Boaz purchasing Ruth to be his wife. Jesus bought his bride with his blood. (1Cor. 6:20 and 7:23 and Romans 3:24-25)   (hat tip to ‘Daily His Disciple’)

Notes 

There is an Arabic story about a thief who defends the Holy Family running from Herod from his partners in crime.  It turns out his feast day is March 25th; we know him as San Dimas or Dismas the Good Thief.

maybe Roger should consult with the Creator first.
