Back then it wasn't Palestine but Judea

Is it possible to definitively date the "septuagent" translation of Isaiah? It is possible that it was translated as late as 500 ce.

INFORMATIONS FROM CRISTIAN HISTORIANS... The persecution of pagans in the later Roman empire began towards the end of the reign of Constantine the Great when he ordered the sacking and demolition of temples.Representatives of Constantine removed statues, doors, and even ceilings from pagan temples, to adorn the Hippodrome of Constantinople with them. Precious metal art was removed from temples in Rome, Athens, Nicomedia, Caesarea, Sardinia, Sebastia, Crete, Cyprus, Rhodes, Chios, Antalya, Iconium, Smyrna, Seleucia, Nicaea, Sicily, Antioch and elsewhere. Constantine financed the building of Constantinople and Christian churches from pagan temples and at the same time gave enormous privileges - administrative and financial - to the Christian church.During his reign, Christian citizens began vandalizing pagan temples, tombs, and monuments. His son Constantius the 353 ordered all pagan temples to be closed, banned pagan religions under penalty of death and removed the traditional Victory Altar from the Senate.Trials and executions of pagans took place, and the punishments are vaguely referred to as "divine and human punishments". The Greek Christian historian Eusebius mentions the destruction of four temples, three of the goddess Aphrodite and one of Asclepius in Constantinople.He also mentions the destruction of 5 temples: Aphrodite in Jerusalem, Heliopolis and Aphaca (in Lebanon), the temple of Asclepius in the eastern Anatolia and the temple of Mamre in Palestine. Justinian closed Plato's Academy! The Christian Latin historian Firmicus Maternus advised: "Paganism, my emperors, must be destroyed ... that this deadly delusion stain the Roman world" and "How fortunate you are, that God, of whom you are the means, has chosen to destroy idolatry and pull down their temples.” Needless to mention what happened in Ancient Greece. Everything was destroyed and looted, They did not dare to demolish the Acropolis of Athens, but they dared to dedicate it to the Virgin Mary! Crypto-pagans existed in Greece until the 8th century. According to American historian Perez Zagorin, the persecutions of the Christian church against the pagans due to the unprecedented lack of tolerance, was one of the reasons that led Europe to the Middle Ages.The revival of ancient Greek values ​​led to the Renaissance. Herbermann in 1911, claimed that Constantius' anti-pagan legislation led to the Middle Ages and was the basis of the Inquisition.

The very last statement is ”… taught me to be more skeptical of my skepticism”. - I don’t particularly like this way of phrasing it. Keep being skeptical. Just be skeptical of various narratives regardless of what their conclusions happen to be. Skepticism as just general disbelief of a certain set of ideas would be quite tendentious. I think any useful notion of skepticism include doing the homework or the research and revising beliefs based on the evidence you encounter. Evaluate claims skeptically when you can and proportion your beliefs to the evidence and reasons you have to believe them. Don’t go in with the assumption that that will mean: holding to it with all your heart.

"Both Herodotus and Thucydides describe the Macedonians as foreigners, a distinct people living outside of the frontiers of the Greek city-states" - Eugene Borza, In the Shadow of Olympus p. 96.

If you are serious Catholic, this leyend should sound absolutely impossible. Scholasticism, logical inquiry, research, engineering, high art, music theory, math, physics and astrolonomy… thats what the renaissance and Medieval church where about. Poeple might be mistaken with the lutherans, protestants and similar heretics that belive in magic and witchcraft. Their church did oppose science staunchly until it failed so catastrophically that their societies did a 180 and drowned in it.

I feel like the story you told still shows the same concerning problem: that the church thought the motions of the earth was in contrary to their theology. I think that's what most people find concerning, like with the young earth theory and anti-evolution. That Christians can deny something being true based solely on how they interpret the scriptures. Maybe it Galileo v the church was just politics but what supports and gives power to the political motivations? Theological interpretation

Wow, that’s powerful. You know, in the Genesis prologue where God ordains the heavenly bodies for their purposes with respect to the Adamic race, he says that they are for signs and seasons. Yes, modern astrology is obviously bunk. But I do think we see evidence in the scriptures that the heavenly bodies signify key events. This is not fortune telling. It’s simply a sign of God’s providential rule of his cosmos.

This actually makes the church look worse, regardless over whether a few in the hierarchy who thought Galileo's ideas were fine. They should never have had any power over science or research that could be perverted into a witch hunt. The earth's motion is not a dangerous subject in the least. That idea had held back science for a generation. "Oh no, he didn't get proper permission from our mullah in a funny hat to publish his science book - lock him up!!!". Awful. Thank god that power doesn't exist today.

Have you heard of this fist century coin with a ram ( Aries) which designated the region of Syria, and the interplay of the planets Jupiter and Saturn re the sun and moon rising in the east? This appears to confirm the 6 BC date. ruclips.net/video/HFl6JS9zobI/видео.html

As a Christian....loooooool

Cool stuff! I share your fascination and heart! What is your name, though? Have I missed it?

Who cares? There was a star of some sort, whatever it was made of, it was seen as a star. This question has been and will be debated until the end of time. Why won't people give it up and consider the one of whom the star Spoke? Let's stop the wasted time of the speculative and know God and his son Jesus Christ. John 17:3, this is eternal life.

Awesome vid! Great research 🙏🙌

May God bless you, empower you and may He take your channel to the highest levels possible so more souls can be saved, in Jesus' name, amen! Great content my friend. One suggestion, you have a great discerning gift, please listen to The Book Of Melquisedek, which was found among The Dead Seas, in cave 11, in Quram. I've read it and understood it already. I believe it will clarify many things and give you great content, if you haven't done so by now. Shalom!

im not sure that the bible says you should not read the stars. But it does say there should be no divination. And modern astrology is divination, determining the future or onez fate by the stars. But Ancient astrology was about the times and what the God's were doing. It was about divine revealation, and i think the ancient jews were very familiar with it as were most peoples. When you see the stars most nights you tend to wonder what they are saying. Ive had God talk to me through the stars when i used to live in a tent.

What I've gathered so far: Jesus was born on 9/11/3 BC (approx. Tishrei 1). Herod died around Feb 1 BC (he asked for an apple which likely disqualifies the March 4 BC lunar eclipse happening prior to this as apples were out of season but gives credence to the January 1 BC eclipse occurring before this). Quinctilius Varus was assigned to the area a second time (the first being in 6 BC where he held a local poll requiring everyone to swear fealty to Herod, but 6,000 Pharisees refused) in BC and was noted as meeting with Herod (Josephus). Varus' family tomb had an inscription mentioning a member of the family serving twice, but the name is broken off. The person is two entries after Varus first 6 BC service, but it's thought the second one is his. Augustus required a head count registration for the entire Roman empire in preparation for a celebration held in 2 BC for the Secular Games and also bestowing the title of Father of Fatherland onto Augustus. I haven't figured out why Luke mentions Quirinius for the 3 BC period, but some think this Quirinius isn't the same guy as the governor in AD 6. Also, some say the term translated to governor from the Greek isn't explicitly the title for governor. We have a Hebrew Luke coming out soon, so I'll check then.

This is excellent... I wish you would have made the name "King of kings" a big deal in this video.

The Greek language is from God, and therefore it is mathematical, and the most complete, but also evolving language with infinite possibilities...!!!

Start by reading the Gospel of Matthew. The star did NOT lead the Magi to Jerusalem. It did lead them to a house in Bethlehem. The road to Jerusalem was part of a well-established trading route through the Fertile Crescent from Mesopotamia and beyond to Syria, Israel, and Egypt. Matthew references Genesis and Exodus. The Star was a supernatural phenomenon. God does not use astrology. It is forbidden.

Additional. These motions occured in ~3 BC. And that agrees with other approaches to the year of Christ's birth.

In ~1958 the Cincinnati, Ohio planetarium presented a lecture on Maji ( astronomer/astrologers ) potential observations. It pointed to positions changing directions of motion of significant planets. One changed to retrograde and the second changed to retrograde and back in the same year. The account was that they looked for significant enough events to bring such a strong portent. By then Alexander had established quite a few libraries. So they could look at many predictions and pick the most important. If this was combined with a super nova, just so much more. Look, no tail.

On April 17 of 6 BC, The moon does not eclipse Jupiter until 12 30 in the afternoon as seen from the middle East, well into daylight hours. The independent verification you saw was with the atmosphere turned off in stellarium. With the atmosphere in the daytime the occultation is not visible so the entire theory falls apart

Wow.. jumps in logic so long you should be an olympic champion long jumper. And a world champion in ignoring awkward information. And confirmation bias… which is what all religion relies on. But they call it “faith”. I always take believers’ searches for “proof” as signs of doubt, a lack of confidence in their *beliefs* . And the fact that they make so much noise about it, like you do, is a huge case of “the lady doth protest too much”.

I have Yehusha's birthday marked as April 14 2025 (on 52 week/364d solar calendar) and his birthday weekend is 4 day, with 4/20 on the false sabbath! Pretty cool❤

Christ WAS born on Dec 25th ..year could be off ....bible only heretic protest ants. Catholic church made bible proves it , but you bible only heretics reject Gods Full word & the bible.

Its pathetic when someone like you is giving historical garbage to the world, with no facts???? St. Paul went to Macedonia, cos receive visions/dreams about Macedonian from Macedonia call him to come and save them! St Paul was bitten and prosecuted by Aheans and Jews in Thessaloniki. Alexander of Macedonia, not from Greece ! You are spreading Catholic propaganda .

Great video but you made a false statement. Yes God does call astrology a sin the jews still practiced astrology. The gematria, kabballah and jewish esoteric doctrines mastered astrology.

The Roman empire found a way to unite its disparate populations by fanaticizing them with a new religion. So it commissioned various Greek-speaking scribes and they wrote all the sacred texts in Koine Greek language ,the universal spoken language.

Jesus was born in 5BC and a comet appeared in the sky for 70 days astronomical resources the Chinese this started on March the 10 till May 19th the Ram and star matches and that's Roman history according to Luke mentioned shepherds meaning it was Spring and not Winter now according to Gnostic scriptures mentioned Jesus was all ready walking at the time of Herod the Great death in 4BC so basically there's more to this story. Luke mentioned 15th year of Tiberius meaning 27AD there were two Roman Emperors reining in 12AD for two years until official Tiberius started his tenure in 14AD the crucifixion was carried out on 16th year of Tiberius meaning 30AD . So history fits in .

The Greeks hellenized the Eastern Mediterranean Sea, and so Greek authors wrote in Greek to a Greek audience a savior story with a Jewish touch. The language of trade and the educated was Greek. We find in this Greek-Roman literature about "Iesous" story elements from Homer, Euripides, and even Greek philosophers. So Greek authors produced for a Greek audience a wide variety of these "Iesous" stories. We have 5 in the story collection and at least 25 outside. It wasn't written for Bob from Idaho as he neither speaks Greek and the world is very different from the Greek world. So basically Bob is not only 2000 years and 10000 miles away from the story about Iesous but has a foreign culture and does not understand the story elements as they are Greek, 2000 years old and 10000 miles away.

Interesting and it may be significant, but this doesn't seem remarkable enough to deem the Savior is born. I challenge you to continue your research into the significance of Virgo, Leo, Regulus, Jupiter, Mercury, Venus and Mars; Revelation 12 and the triple conjunction of Jupiter encircling Regulus which is the main (king) star in the constellation Leo - the symbol of Judea from which tribe the Messiah would be born. This conjunction occured at the same time three other planets (Mercury, Venus and Mars) were at the head of Virgo - the Virgin (Mary). These plenets in addition to the 9 stars that make up Leo, completed the 12 stars, or crown on the head of Virgo as well as the position of the sun and moon which we read in Revelation 12: "A great sign appeared in the Heavens, a woman clothed with the sun and the moon under Her feet and on Her head, a crown of twelve stars..." I don't recall the exact date this starry dance occured, but between 3 BC and 2 BC, and the date of Sept 11-12th are significant; either the annunciation or birth. I don't recall because its to much to remember off hand. But much more convincing then any other explanation I've heard.

You really need to watch Rick Larson's Star of Bethlehem presentation. You're only covering two of the nine clues about the star, and you're looking in the wrong year. Also, the magi didn't associate Jerusalem with Aries because they weren't Roman. They associated Judea as a whole with Leo because the lion is the symbol of the tribe of Judah.

Christ is the rightful King of the Jews and Jerusalem it's capital. What is so difficult? Rex Judaeorum, lat. King of the Jews. The star was a comet that is capable of indicating the direction. When the Coma stands vertical, the star has stopped. Out in space his trajectory made a turn. Why God cannot send a comet to indicate the Incarnation visitation on earth, in human history? Who says others didn't se it??? Only because it is not written? The MTh-BacPhil.

The problem is that astrologers of the East would probably not been using Greco-Roman astrology, but Zoroastrian. Jimmy Akin goes into this.

The concept of the "integral age" of a prophet is that the prophet died in the month or the very day in which they were conceived. This is rabbinic tradition, as I understand it. A conception date (rather than a birth date of April 17th) would allign with Passover in April of whichever year Jesus was crucified/ resurrected. It would also allign with Eastern Orthodox celebration of Christmas in January. And coincidentally, the Awassi sheep native to Israel would be birthing sheep in the fields in Israel in December/ January. (Shepherds keeping watch over their flocks by night.)

The Greek language Η ΟΜΗΡΙΚΗ ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗ ΓΛΩΣΣΑ στην ασια ΕΙΝΑΙ ΤΟ ΒΑΘΡΟ ΣΤΟ ΟΠΟΙΟ ΚΑΘΟΝΤΑΙ ΑΡΑΒΙΚΑ ΚΙ ΕΒΡΑΙΚΑ ΓΛΩΣΣΙΚΑ ΙΔΙΩΜΑΤΑ ΤΗΣ ΑΥΤΗΣ ΓΛΩΤΤΗΣ π.χ. βελος is soleb said is dias suez is zeus its basic the samme language mirrored ! all people from UR side of the globe speaks greek , but from difFrend time periods of the same language that transform to todays greek ! ALL THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEORIES FROM 1800s ARE ERRORED BY TODAYS STANDARds

Great video. Thank you. Never heard of this stuff before…

I have this coin

Call me crazy, but if I was trying to write a believable story of Jesus’ birth, I would have scraped the entire “Star of David” event. If you had to travel from Persia to Jerusalem that night, the star would have moved from its original position and, given the lack of technology at the time (ex. telescope) the Magi would not have been able to determine the star was directly above the city. There’s far too much contradiction between the four Gospels and the fact that the authors waited at least a half-century to begin writing is suspect.

Very helpful. Thank you! 🙏🏼

The quality of this channel's uploads is amazing; the subscriber count should be far higher! I just found you tonight, and I'm looking forward to going through your catalog.

Why trying to explain something that most probably never happened? Matthew and Luke made the whole story up. Marc and John have no story about Jesus' birth at all, which would be very strange, if all the supposed miracles around Jesus' birth were true. Secondly Matthew and Luke tell two completely different stories. Thirdly they even contradict each other three times. Jesus was born in Nazareth, there was no star.

I agree that the planetary conjunction in Aries is the most rational explanation for the mostly legendary “Star of Bethlehem”. However, it should be noted that a similar conjunction occurred 20 years before and also 20 years later. If magi were looking for something like that to happen, they would have found nothing special in 2 out of 3 conjunctions within 40 years. Also, the same author of “Mathew” describes the star as positioning itself on top a specific house -which is completely dependent on one’s position in relation to the house. Actual stars don’t do that. Also, there are well known pagan traditions associating the birth of kings (and other prominent figures) with stars and other signs of the gods in the sky. One thing is to make an association between a particular event (like a person’s birth) and an otherwise random celestial coincidence, and another is to assume that an actual god made it happen.

Buen video, bien explicado! Además señalar que el 17 de abril del año 6 A.C, corresponde al 20 de Nisán, es decir Pesaj, en Aries, es decir, el cordero exaltado. ¿aún no quieres leer la biblia en código astral? saludos.

Amazingly educational
