NYC Mayor Threatens to Shut Down Synagogues, Churches: But not Mosques
“I want to say to all those who are preparing for the potential of religious services this weekend: If you go to your synagogue, if you go to your church and attempt to hold services after having been told so often not to, our enforcement agents will have no choice but to shut down those services,” he added.
Interestingly, de Blasio made no mention of the over one-hundred mosques in New York City....
Palmyra Triumph’s Arch
THE UNVEILING...
Replica of Palmyra Triumphal Arch Revealed at NYC’s City Hall Park
EXCERPTS...
Until 1 pm today, a replica of the Triumphal Arch of Palmyra was under a cover at City Hall Park when there was a large unveiling for the public. The 20 foot tall, 30 ton marble replica of the Syrian arch was installed yesterday.
The original Roman arch was destroyed by ISIS in October 2015 and this model was recreated through painstaking analysis of numerous photographs. The Institute for Digital Archaeology (IDA), the Oxford based organization behind the installation, is also working on 3D modeling many of the archeological treasures in the Middle East and North Africa under the initiative the Million Image Database, in partnership with UNESCO.
ARCH OF BAAL - (Satan’s sneaky project)
EXCERPTS...
Introduction
To make a long story short, Palmyra’s Arch of Triumph was built by the Romans in the 3rd century AD, and it served as an entrance to the Temple of Bel, which was built as early as 32 AD. Bel was one of the many names for the ancient Babylonian god, Marduk, who was created in the Enuma Elish, an ancient mythical tale on 7 clay tablets. Murduk was portrayed as the victor of a heavenly battle, and thus became the ‘god of gods’. The name ‘Bel’ simply meant ‘lord’ so it was adapted to many gods. The Canaanite spelling, Baal, is used in the Bible. Marduk was also the first god that humans concocted through a story, rather than being a physical object such as the sun, moon, earth, etc, which is why I think Babylon is referred to, In Revelation, as the ‘mother of prostitutes and abominations of the earth’. (Rev 17:5)
Anyway, Palmyra’s Temple of Bel was converted to a Christian church by the Romans and later became an Islamic mosque, used by the Muslims, but it was destroyed by ISIS in 2015. The Arch of Triumph, at the entrance, was the last to be destroyed in Oct 2015. Yet, by being destroyed, it has become even more well known and is making a comeback, in the end times, which is not surprising because I’ve always thought that Marduk was the “foreign god” in the ‘post-rapture’ verses of Daniel 11:37-39. Re-creation and connection to God’s riddle of 666.
The Institute for Digital Archaeology, based in the UK, along with partners such as Dubai Future Foundation and UNESCO, recreated the Arch of Baal using 3-D technology and a robotic drilling machine to carve a 2/3 scale model out of Egyptian marble. The original happened to be 27 feet tall so a perfect .666 scale model turned out to be 18 feet (or 6+6+6). Of course, those same two numbers are used to ‘calculate the number of the beast’ in Revelation 13:18 (i.e. 666/18=37), which leads to God’s timeline of 37’s. (proof of the riddle)
Thanks for the info on the Palmyra Arch. I did not know all that.
