Ooops.
Looks like the science of baby prediction is still as reliable as weather forecasting! 😕
The times are so crazy, though, that there'd be those who'd say that if you don't like the baby, just wait 10 minutes...
Then again, there's a way to make that model work out for good (aka "venahafoch hu"):
"Why America is NOT in Biblical Prophecy? 2023 Absolutely Demonstrates Why"
There's always a remnant of good old-fashioned Yankee Ingenuity at work, even if the word has to be announced from Mars over and over and over, even via Baby Ginny (born on Mars on April 3, 2021, now even in her terrible Tues).
The stats of the mission can really keep an.. observant person engaged; e.g. Mars2020 launched on Tisha B'Av, on an Atlas V 541, obviously named after the very fellow who is famous for holding up the entire world.
The journey took 203 days, which is the sum of the first 3 letters of the Torah.
Perseverance landed on the day following the death of Rush Limbaugh who died on "Ash Wednesday" (February 17, 2021 at age 70 years), and the Torah literally begins "with Rush", בראש.
It goes on and on:
Topic: Atlas V 541 - Perseverance, Mars 2020 Rover
I like the info on this image. So much is in HERE [פה] but for a couple of examples:
"85th Atlas V Mission"
"Very Precise Injection Accuracy"
It's like the 85-letter text marked out by the inverted nuns (50s*), or the number of verses in the Book of Ruth, which I've seen described as the 85-verse birth announcement for King David.
Then most end up getting caught completely off-guard. Gobsmacked. Yet the simple reason for people not connecting the dots is that they collected no dots to connect. Their bags are empty, or perhaps used for trash.
Every day, another day when there's nothing to see outside of the settled status quo (regardless of the particular brand -- so many to choose from). The goal is to move along the Carousel like everyone else, even while shunning, shaming, or even targeting the lone nuts who refuse to join a team in order to renew themselves.
But the observant are able to keep on keeping on, collecting facts and figures even or especially when the details don't appear from the settled, approved viewing stations.
How about that NT? The content is simply *the content that has been published*, regardless of anyone's beliefs on the matter, or even if the info contained within is true or not. That's just a fact.
And then how many English translations on top of all of that? Some are pretty sketchy. And like the English, there are even Hebrew translations -- not as many of course, but also differing amongst themselves.
So I just stick with the facts. It's an annoying habit from the perspective of many. Well, it saves having to decline party invitations. 👍
All that said, I do keep an online version on-hand because it can be useful to compare what translators think should be the Hebrew for the Greek.
Take the translation of Acts 1:11 that's in there, because I couldn't help but notice...
Atlas V 541:
"who also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye looking into heaven? this Jesus, who was received up from you into heaven shall so come in like manner as ye beheld him going into heaven."ויאמרו אנשי הגליל מהתעמדו ועיניכם לשמים זה ישוע אשר הועלה מעליכם השמים בוא יבוא כאשר ראיתם אתו עלה למרום
= 5541
"in like manner as ye beheld him going into heaven"= 2000, the same as ארצות הברית של אמריקהכאשר ראיתם אתו עלה למרום
, or the "big bet", the letter bet when used to represent 2000, which is visually enlarged when appearing as the first letter of the Torah. It's a big beit, the big house, which is even the meaning of the word Pharoah. You'd think people would catch on and want to bust out of the bondage of the established, settled order of conventional programming.
(Here's a handy gematria tool to copy/paste in these phrases.)
*Yeah, about those 50s. Like with the 127 I'd mentioned earlier (re those who refuse to convert up at post 32), Who knows 50?
"The 'medina's of Ahas-Я-US' kingdom were 127 by earthly divisions, which are 50 by Imperial measure."
– 50: at a distanceThe number 50 is used as the measure that places something at a distance. The Talmud notes the use of a rope measuring 50 cubits for matters such as measuring the 2,000-cubit distance of techum Shabbos, the distance beyond the city one may travel on Shabbos.24
Because of the negative impact of a granary, leather tannery, and cemetery, these were not halachically permitted to be located within 50 cubits of the city.25 Of course, the 50-day journey from Egypt to Sinai ensured that Israel was no longer under the sinful influence of their idolatrous past.
12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is nigh unto Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey off.
🤔, so what's that about that verse 6:
"They therefore, when they were come together, asked him, saying, Lord, dost thou at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?"
Dreams are the buds of prophecy.
I've pretty much come to the stage in life that.. shrugs when people drive off of a cliff because really, they should have bought a squirrel.
