paraphrased ‘enter the story’
π️reading & study π️
1 - There were some there who told him about the Galileans whom Pilate had killed. [From biblehub dot com Benson Commentary - “followers of Judas Gaulonites, whose story Josephus has given us.. It appears he was the head of a sect who asserted God to be their only sovereign, and were so utterly averse to a submission to the Roman power, that they accounted it unlawful to pay tribute to Caesar”.] {The “iron” of prophecy, Rome. Rev.13:1-10’s many headed geopolitical beast (“with ten horns”) of the last hour, cross references with, so is a morph and progression of Daniel 7’s “fourth beast more terrible with ten horns”. Dn.7’s beast has “iron teeth” (columns?) and bronze claws which tear up and scatter what the iRon doesn’t subdue. Aka, last hour huge beast will have Roman-Graeco roots, a western institution, think Roman senates, architecture, courts, etc. And Greek drama, philosophy, arts, etc. An institution within which dove and vulture collude.. The ‘little’ beast/horn of Rev.13:11-18, which came up amongst a cluster of others, and in its rising (after Rev.12:14) pulled up three other horns/major interests. The verse 13:13 event pinpointed an office, not (yet) an individual. It was the first seal 6 occurrence.. How can that be? Because the revelation vision is actually told three times. Chapter 12 is the middle version, with Mt.23:39 to go with vs.17, the last verse). Also, the seals (elements of the times, modern) are described at the beginning of the vision, as their full and entire effects, first to last. This veils what they are and veils much of the vision.. White horse and rider with a crown openly victorious over powers and principalities ride forth instituting a new age.. The response, red fiery horse.. given a long sword.. which is seal 6. Rev.13:13, to clear up confusion, is not, but was enabled by an of-the-world “false prophet”. Hello? This is so obvious as to be screaming. This is the ‘one’ who’s “strong delusion” of “seating man in the temple as god”/highest power has caused what was once called Christendom to “fall away”. This one has more modern “miracles to mislead” — including the Dn.12:11-12 wiTh LK.19:41,44 aNd 1Cor.3:16 “set up” to run for 45 days(?) Last “ten days” (rev.2:10) escalating to most critical/dangerous. And seal 6 culminates in - Mt.13:30, Rev.16:14-15-16, simultaneous with Mt.25:1-13(10) —— Is.24:20/Rev.10:4. Then two millennia later (outline 1, the week plus one.. it was biG bang into the universe as is - think “red shift”. TheN, it was set in motion) after all is said and done, 1Tim.4:10, Jn.12:32, then, Isaiah 11:7 “the lion will eat straw like the ox, the bear and cow will graze and pasture together. And their young ones with them.” Understand Rev.22 has narrative in it which is spoken outside of the vision, and portrays inner, initial conditions of some during GWT judgment/discernment/closure ‘day’ like the parable of the rich man and Lazarus does - inner, initial condition. Rev.21:5, the Greek word for “all” is translated “all things” - also in 1Cor.15:27,28 three times, but not another two when it just can’t work. So what is it verse 27 repeats three times? Word being “all”.
And a second outline within the first is Leviticus 23. Rev.20 is told like describing the crests of waves but not much of the in between the crests. I had another thought here but I think it got misfiled in this 70 year old brain.π}
2 And he said to them, “Do you think that these Galileans Pilate/Rome killed were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered in this way? 3 No, and I tell you, unless you repent, all will perish. {No option to stray in Eden would be an Ant Farm, so now this (all important) contrast, imperfection/entropy which “does noT quit”.}
4 Or those eighteen who died when the tower in Siloam fell upon them, do you think they were worse sinners than all others living in Jerusalem? 5 No. And I tell you, unless you repent, you will likewise perish.” (70 CE, was likewise. The likewise was not afterlife death living forever while being burned alive for all infinity.)
6 And he told this parable, “A man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, but when he came seeking fruit on it, he found none. 7 So he said to the vinedresser, ‘Look, for three years now I’ve come looking for fruit on this fig tree! And three times now, I find it fruitless. Cut it down! Why should it use up the ground?’ 8 But the vine tender said, ‘Sir, let it remain another year, and I’ll dig around it and fertilize/feed it {ππ+π·π️+logic}. 9 Then if it should bear fruit next year, well and good. And if not, we can cut it down then.’” {And what sort of fire would it be thrown to? A bonfire (mt.13:30, rev.16:14-15-16) not an afterlife ‘hell’ (another strong delusion of the adversary/first gone rogue one, and accelerator) — God’s ‘wrath’ being cause and effect, consequences of which dust to dust is as well, Ps.90:3,5-7. Wrath - orge - passion, cause and effect, the disease as part of the cure, and immunity, versus Ant Farm.}
