    The problem with Nostradamus is that his predictions are “confirmed” after an event has already happened. The vague symbolism in each prediction could be interpreted as major event happening in someone’s lifetime.

      A young child will be born of poor people,
      He who by his tongue will seduce a great troop;
      His fame will increase towards the realm of the East.”
      And for the fall of Hitler, we have:
      “Beasts ferocious with hunger will cross the rivers
      The greater part of the battlefield will be against Hister.
      Into a cage of iron will the great one be drawn,
      When the child of Germany observes nothing.”

      Right. That's what I'm saying. Things have been found all over the world. Some of them weren't from where they were discovered. Basic example...the material used to build the pyramids wasn't from anywhere near where the pyramids actually are. That's part of the mystery that archeologists are trying to find out. How did they get those heavy blocks to the locations to build? So, the Codex could've been brought to that location from someone who traveled there. And since it is in fact indecipherable, how do they even know the origins of it???

    • @devilsadvocate6098
      @devilsadvocate6098 8 лет назад

      Maybe because of the way the event transpired in the book? During the video there is a party of what looks like Jesus Christ on a cross, along with other images influenced by religion. If so, maybe they notice the third page has Jesus on a cross and the next one has him walking out of a tomb.Or the cover is on the backside of the book, like those Japanese mangas.

    Many people here are correlating book #5 "The Ripley Scroll Book" to the manga & anime Fullmetal Alchemist, and indeed it is an intended source reference, however it is just one of quite a few ancient manuscripts & old books the manga/anime draws from in the medieval study of Alchemy. For instance if one were interested in reading further, they could explore works by Johann Joachim Becher, or Paracelsus who first wrote of the homonculus, or the many German folklore stories of Faust that often involve creating the dwarf/spirit in the flask and making a pact with a devil named Mephistopholes who ultimately consumes or destroys Faust.
    Great Work with the video. The books listed here should be considered jumping off points for further deep dives down these wells of inspiration. Enjoy.

He imagined that if he applied his made spells on the plants that are extinct now then the plants could become dangerous and huge and could also eat up people. That's why he wrote it all up in a diary...

Many unfathomable things happened to me since then, things that otherwise wouldn't had occured...so I'm truly convinced, Shams Al-Mâarif is not some kind of urban legend...

      Well, the Devil's Bible isn't really that mysterious. It's clearly a religious text from a very small cult. And the Book of Enoch isn't much different from any other Old Testament book (albeit they are all very mysterious since we know practically nothing on their origins).

    • @billythekid6418
      @billythekid6418 8 лет назад +1

      The codex gigas is written with the same hand, same timeframe with no fatigue. Origins of the book of Enoch are also mysterious. Much more than a boy throwing a rock in a cave and hearing something break, in my opinion. Jus my opinion.

    • @richyrich6099
      @richyrich6099 8 лет назад

      I would have thought a "well known Elizabethan Mathematician, Astrologer and Consultant to the court of the Queen" would have many books. And whats daylight got to do with his collection?

    He forgot to mention that many of the plants in the Voynich Manuscript are completely unknown.

    • @timelks827
      @timelks827 8 лет назад +1

      Yea, based on the unknown plants it has led some to think it is from another planet. I just think it s a copy of a much older book that shown plants that are now extinct and the language is dead.

    • @PhangTabai
      @PhangTabai 8 лет назад

      +Big Slim It would make sense. It's still strange that the language hasn't been seen in anything else.

    • @drakonyanazkar
      @drakonyanazkar 8 лет назад

      It made me think of the Codex Seraphinianus, which is a work of art. The idea is basically the same, but what Matthew described looks less aesthetic and more specific.
      And I also thought about another planet flora. BTW, even if it were extinct plants, we would be able to name at least a few of them.

    If the alphabet in the codex is indescribable, how do they know it's written right to left?

    • @abdelarmstr5173
      @abdelarmstr5173 8 лет назад +5

      I asked myself the same question and immediately imagined the answer. Deciphers might not know the language, but they do know how languages and writing work. In a manuscript, a person starts writing until they no longer have space, but they're always tempted to finish the last word in a line, but when they go to the next line, they start exactly below the first letter of the previous line. This way, the first letters of all lines are aligned but the final ones aren't. This gives immediately the direction of writing. The same thing can be done for paragraphs to decide whether the author writes top-to-bottom or bottom-to-up.
