Apocalipsis 17
1. Vino entonces uno de los siete ángeles que tenían las siete copas, y habló conmigo diciéndome: Ven acá, y te mostraré la sentencia contra la gran ramera, la que está sentada sobre muchas aguas;
2. con la cual han fornicado los reyes de la tierra, y los moradores de la tierra se han embriagado con el vino de su fornicación. (Fijense la ironia de apocalipsis con referencia a la sangre de Cristo, osea el linaje)
3. Y me llevó en el Espíritu al desierto; y vi a una mujer sentada sobre una bestia escarlata llena de nombres de blasfemia, que tenía siete cabezas y diez cuernos. (LA BESTIA ES UNA REFERENCIA A LA CONSTELACION DEL DRAGON/DRACO QUE TIENE LA MISMA FORMA DE LA SERPIENTE, OSEA LA LETRA S. TODO ES UNA REFERENCIA ESOTERICA AL RIO NILO, AL MISMO SIGNO $, EN EL MARCO DE ETIOPIA, EN UN MARCO INSISTO A LA IGLESIA COPTA, EN UN MARCO INSISTO A JUAN MARCOS, EL HIJO DE CRISTO QUE PREDICO EN ETIOPIA EN EGIPTO Y QUE ES PATRONO DE DICHA IGLESIA. EL MUNDO ESTA CIEGO, PORQUE DETRAS DE SU IDOLO MUNDIAL, QUE ES EL DINERO, ESTA EL CODIGO.)
4. Y la mujer estaba vestida de púrpura y escarlata, y adornada de oro de piedras preciosas y de perlas, y tenía en la mano un cáliz de oro lleno de abominaciones y de la inmundicia de su fornicación; (LA MUJER BABILONIA ES HIPOCRITA. DEMONIZA AL DINERO, PORQUE ELLA SE QUIERE LLENAR DE DOLARES. ES RAMERA Y EN ESE MARCO ENGAÑA Y LE LAVA EL CEREBRO A LA GENTE. No le interesa el AMOR VERDADERO PORQUE ES PUTA. No le interesa en este MARCO que existe un DIOS TODOPODEROSO que nos ama y quiere que nos salvemos. NOS HABLA DE SOCIALISMO PERO CON POLITICOS MULTIMILLONARIOS Y PUEBLO POBRE.)
5. y en su frente un nombre escrito, un misterio: BABILONIA LA GRANDE, LA MADRE DE LAS RAMERAS Y DE LAS ABOMINACIONES DE LA TIERRA.
6. Vi a la mujer ebria de la sangre de los santos, y de la sangre de los mártires de Jesús; y cuando la vi, quedé asombrado con gran asombro. (LA DERECHA osea el PODER por isquierda y por derecha asesino a miles de personas por el DIOS DINERO, insisto es ramera, no le interesa el AMOR DE UN DIOS VERDADERO y es en este MARCO que no logra discernir el SANTO GRIAL con fuerte marco con ETIOPIA/EGIPTO)
7. Y el ángel me dijo: ¿Por qué te asombras? Yo te diré el misterio de la mujer, y de la bestia que la trae, la cual tiene las siete cabezas y los diez cuernos.
8. La bestia que has visto, era, y no es; y está para subir del abismo e ir a perdición; y los moradores de la tierra, aquellos cuyos nombres no están escritos desde la fundación del mundo en el libro de la vida, se asombrarán viendo la bestia que era y no es, y será.
9. Esto, para la mente que tenga sabiduría: Las siete cabezas son siete montes, sobre los cuales se sienta la mujer, (LA CLAVE. WASHINGTON D.C ES UNA NUEVA ROMA. NOTEN EL NEXO SIETE MONTES CON LA CONSTELACION DE LAS PLEYADES/TORO EN FUNCION A DRACO, OSEA EL DRAGON. ROMA ESTA DISEÑADA EN FUNCION A LA MENORAH EN EL MARCO A JANUKAH Y LA FESTIVIDAD DE PURIM.

HAY UNA FUERTE REFERENCIA EN ESTE VERSICULO A LA FESTIVIDAD DE JANUKAH, QUE ES EN NOVIEMBRE Y DICIEMBRE EN EL MARCO A LA CONSTELACION DE SCORPION Y PURIM, QUE TIENE REFERENCIA A LA REINA ESCONDIDA O DE "CONTRABANDO" QUE SALVO A LOS JUDIOS. Lo que es claro es que este versiculo de APOCALIPSIS ES CLAVE. Fijense incluso que 17:9 (17x9=153=JUAN 21:11="OJOS DE GATO"). PERO INSISTO EN EL MISTERIO. ¿CUAL ES EL SECRETO DETRAS DEL MARCO SCORPION-PLEYADES-ORION? ¿PORQUE SON CONSTELACIONES ANTAGONICAS? ¿CUAL ES EL SECRETO DE LA RELACION JANUKAH CON PURIM?. )

¿QUE RELACION ESPIRITUAL EXISTE ENTRE LA SERPIENTE DE BRONCE Y EL MAR DE BRONCE?
Juan 3:14: Y como Moisés levantó la SERPIENTE en el desierto, así es necesario que el Hijo del Hombre sea levantado, (Cristo esta haciendo referencia al HIJO DEL HOMBRE EN TERCERA PERSONA. ¿PORQUE?)
Génesis 3:14: Y Jehová Dios dijo a la SERPIENTE: Por cuanto esto hiciste, maldita serás entre todas las bestias y entre todos los animales del campo; sobre tu pecho andarás, y polvo comerás todos los días de tu vida.
CATOLICO/CAT-OLICO/CAT-EDRAL/CAT/GATO-EL OJO DEL GATO TIENE LA MISMA FORMA QUE LA DEL SEXO FEMENINO "VESCICA PISCIS"
  
Es una simbología relacionada en parte con España. Según la mitología griega, Hércules en su viaje a la Península Ibérica se atrevió a robar la fruta sagrada que cuidaban las Hespérides, hijas de Atlas, fundador de la Atlántida, cumpliendo así la profecía sobre el fin de ese reino de titanes, como estaba anunciado. Este relieve del Museo de Olimpia muestra maravillosamente este episodio. Hércules sujeta el cosmos ayudado por la diosa Atenea, que le pone un almohadón en la espalda, mientras el mismo Átlas le trae las frutas de las Hespérides. Es una versión muy peculiar del mito, pues Átlas coopera en su propia destrucción, y sitúa en España, Hesperia, ese jardín prohibido.
Durante cincuenta años de su vida, el profesor Schulten efectuó investigaciones históricas y arqueológicas en la Península Ibérica en búsqueda de la Atlántida, y los últimos hallazgos parecen apoyar su hipótesis de que el reino andaluz de Tartessos, desaparecido en el siglo VI antes de Cristo, coincidía con la descripción que nos dejó Platón en el Timeo:
“(…) Sabios reyes habían formado en esta Atlántida una vasta y maravillosa potencia que dominaba toda aquella tierra además de otras muchas islas, y algunas comarcas del continente, apoderándose de todas, desde Libia al Egipto, y de Europa hasta Tirrenia (…) Empero sobrevinieron diluvios y terremotos, y en un solo día y en una sola noche fatal, todos aquellos guerreros fueron tragados por la tierra abierta. Desapareció la Atlántida y he aquí por qué aun hoy no se puede recorrer y explorar aquel mar, encontrando la navegación un escollo en el fangoso lodo que dejó la tierra al abismarse”.
La correlación del Toro y la diosa, incluyendo la sangre del Toro siendo entregada a la Luna para la fructificación, también puede ser explicada a través de la coexistencia de su objetivo del procreativo. Cuando la cabeza del Toro es vista desde una perceptiva frontal, su cráneo y cuernos exhiben un asombroso parecido a los órganos uterinos de la hembra humana.

 Fermentation - nigredo - bread and wine of Christ    La vesica piscis (vejiga de pez en latín) es un símbolo hecho con dos círculos del mismo radio que se intersecan de manera que el centro de cada círculo está en la circunferencia del otro. Esta forma se denomina también mandorla (que significa "almendra" en italiano).
APOCALIPSIS 3:14 (NUMERO PI) (7 IGLESIAS/PLEYADES/TAURO/TORO)
3:14 Y escribe al ángel de la iglesia en Laodicea: He aquí el Amén, el testigo fiel y verdadero, el principio de la creación de Dios, dice esto: (Numero PI=3.14. La iglesia de LA-ODICEA era una de las 7 IGLESIAS/PLEYADES ubicadas en ASIA MENOR/ANATOLIA/MONTE DE ARARAT. LAS 7 IGLESIAS TIENEN UN FUERTE NEXO CON EL ARCA DE NOE. LA GRAN PIRAMIDE ESTA DISEÑADA EN FUNCION AL MONTE DE ARARAT. Incluso observen tambien que LA-ODICEA comienza con la L/ESCUADRA Y A/COMPAS. Osea que en su mismo nombre esta CODIFICADA LA ALQUIMIA, osea la cuadratura de un circulo o cubicacion de una esfera que es la escalera de JACOB. CASA DE DIOS Y PUERTA DEL CIELO. LA GRAN PIRAMIDE, INCREIBLEMENTE, TIENE UN ORIGEN CIEN POR CIENTO CRISTIANO.)
1 DE REYES 8
7:21 Estas columnas erigió en el pórtico del templo; y cuando hubo alzado la columna del lado derecho, le puso por nombre Jaquín, y alzando la columna del lado izquierdo, llamó su nombre Boaz. 7:22 (NUMERO PI) Y puso en las cabezas de las columnas tallado en forma de lirios, y así se acabó la obra de las columnas.
7:23 Hizo fundir asimismo un mar de diez codos de un lado al otro, perfectamente redondo; su altura era de cinco codos, y lo ceñía alrededor un cordón de treinta codos.
7:24 Y rodeaban aquel mar por debajo de su borde alrededor unas bolas como calabazas, diez en cada codo, que ceñían el mar alrededor en dos filas, las cuales habían sido fundidas cuando el mar fue fundido.
7:25 Y descansaba sobre doce bueyes; tres miraban al norte, tres miraban al occidente, tres miraban al sur, y tres miraban al oriente; sobre estos se apoyaba el mar, y las ancas de ellos estaban hacia la parte de adentro.
7:26 El grueso del mar era de un palmo menor, y el borde era labrado como el borde de un cáliz o de flor de lis; y cabían en él dos mil batos.

9 Y aquí hay mente que tiene sabiduría. Las siete cabezas son siete montes, sobre los cuales se asienta la mujer. (SA-BI-DU-RIA/SA-BA-DO/SABADO/SHABBAT)
¿Porque la relacion de DRACO, OSEA LA MISMA SERPIENTE QUE ES SINONIMO DE SABIDURIA con el VATICANO y con WASHINGTON D.C? ¿PORQUE INCLUSO SU RELACION como he expuesto en el mensaje anterior con referencia al PERIODO LUNAR DE 19 AÑOS en funcion a LA INDEPENDENCIA DE EEUU Y A LA INCLINACION DEL EJE DE LA TIERRA? ¿PORQUE LA FUERTE RELACION DE LA INDEPENDENCIA DE EEUU CON EL IMPERIO ROMANO? ¿PORQUE TODO ESTO ESTA EN EL MARCO A BABILONIA, OSEA EL MISMO PARALELO 33? ¿PORQUE LA FUERTE RELACION DE MARCO CON PEDRO QUE TIENE FUERTE RELACION CON ROMA, CON BABILONIA Y CON MARCOS (1 DE PEDRO 5:13)?
La respuesta esta en funcion a la LANZA DE LONGINO, OSEA EL ROMANO QUE LE CLAVO LA LANZA A NUESTRO SEÑOR EN LA CRUZ. EL ASESINATO DE JULIO CESAR EL 15/3 (JUAN 21:11), EL MISMO DIA DE SAN LONGINO EN LA IGLESIA CATOLICA, FUE EN EL 44 ANTES DE CRISTO POR MARCO JUNIO BRUTO, EN EL MARCO AL PODER DE MARCO ANTONIO.
LA CRUCIFICCION DE CRISTO FUE EL MISMO AÑO 33 D.C, EL MISMO 15/3, OSEA EL MISMO DIA DEL ASESINATO DEL CESAR. C-SAR TIENE FUERTE RELACION CON PURIM Y POR ESTA CAUSA, LA FUERTE RELACION DEL LIBRO DE ESTHER, EN EL MARCO A LA PERSECUCION DE HITLER A LOS JUDIOS. LA LANZA DE LONGINO ES EL CUMPLIMIENTO DEL MISMO GENESIS 3:15. ENTRE EL 44 A.C Y EL 33 D.C TENEMOS 76=19X4 AÑOS EXACTOS, OSEA UNA REFERENCIA A DRACO, A LA LUNA, A SU CICLO DE 470 CICLOS, EN FUNCION AL MISMO DIA DE LA INDEPENDENCIA DE EEUU. INCLUSO EN EL MISMO CORAN, UN LIBRO ESCRITO EN FUNCION AL NUMERO 19, EN SU MISMO CAPITULO 19 SE HACE REFERENCIA A MARIA. TAMBIEN ES UNA REFERENCIA AL PAPA NUMERO 33 DESPUES DE PEDRO, OSEA MARCOS DE OSTIA, EL UNICO PAPA LLAMADO MARCOS. EL RITUAL DE LA MISA CATOLICA ES EN FUNCION AL 33.

In churches, the four signs of the Zodiac often reoccur and are associated with ‘Judgment Day’ and the ‘End of Times’
Jesus portrayed at the Last Judgment can often be found in the Tympanium above the entrance of churches and cathedrals. Notice, the lion (Leo) on the left, the bull on the right (Taurus), the angel on the left (Aquarius) and the eagle on the right ( Scorpio).
The four evangelists Luke, John, Mathew and Mark likewise have been associated with these four Zodiac signs as well:
   
Mark = Scropio (Eagle), Luke = Taurus, John = Leo, Matthew = Aquarius

Winter Solstice Galactic Alignment of the Sun with the Galactic Equator

On Earth, the River Nile was the reflection of this great river in the sky, in accordance with the Hermetic principle "as above, so below." Herschel's earliest ingenious research has demonstrated that all of the pyramids along the river Nile represent constellations along the Milky Way, not just Orion! There are more than 50 pyramids in total, and their true meaning can only be deciphered when one considers the whole of Egypt.
During a Great Celestial Conjunction, the Sun crosses that great river in the sky, the Milky Way. Egyptologists explain that the solar God Ra (and Horus) required a boat because they sailed the Heavens from sunrise in the East to sunset in the West. At night, Ra travelled the Netherworld to be reborn in the morning at sunrise. Egyptologists reject the idea that the Egyptians understood the Precession of the Equinoxes and that the Sun also sojourns along the zodiac in a 26,000 year journey corresponding with the Precession Cycle.
In the Book of the Gates, the travel of the Sun at night along with the deceased pharaoh into the Netherworld is described. The Sun enters the Netherworld in the first hour just after sunset to be reborn in the morning at sunrise after a twelve hour nocturnal journey. There are many parallels, however, with the precessional journey of the Sun along the twelve signs of the zodiac to be discovered in the Book of the Gates. The 12 hours in the Book of Gates are structured into four groups of three hours, denoting a cross in the face of the clock. In the 12th hour Nun raises the solar barque with the scarab beetle of the Sun God from the primeval waters (Milky Way?), this is the hour of the rebirth of the Sun.
|
|
Left: Nun raises the solar barque from the primeval waters at ‘sunrise’, the time of the rebirth of the Sun.
|
During Ra's travel through all of the twelve signs of the zodiac in the precession cycle, he will be requiring a boat to twice cross that great river in the sky, the Milky Way! It is probably the only reason why the Egyptian deities required a Sun barque in the first place. Boats are used to cross waters, not skies, so it was used not for their nightly ecliptic travel from East to West through the Netherworld, but for their travels along the zodiac in the precession cycle. It is during this journey that the Sun would be required to cross the waters of the Milky Way at least twice. The Book of the Gates may therefore have been misinterpreted by Egyptologists as the nocturnal journey of the Sun simply because they reject the idea that the Egyptians understood Precession! Keep in mind that only twice per year on the equinox the day and night will be exactly 12 hours in length. It is therefore far more logical that the 12 hours in the Book of the Gates are in fact the 12 zodiacal Ages of the Precession Cycle.
Pharaohs in ancient Egypt were buried with their arms crossed holding Ankhs in their hands. This posture of the deceased pharaoh can be found on sarcophagus and in statues throughout Egypt. The Ankh represents a cross symbol.

Since the Greek inherited much of their wisdom from the Egyptians, it's more than reasonable to suspect that the gate or portal mentioned in the Book of the Gates through which the pharaoh enters the Netherworld is, in fact, the Gate of God that the Greek writer Macrobius writes about. The Gate of God was also called the Golden Gate, while the Gate of Men was called the Silver Gate. The very same Egyptian cross symbolism used by the pharaohs associated with the Golden and Silver gates of the soul (and the Sun) can still be recognized in the coat of arms of the Vatican, consisting of two crossed keys; one Golden, one Silver.

Silver and Golden cross in the Coat of Arms of the Vatican
|
The Golden Gate is the ecliptic Milky Way crossing at the Scorpio-Sagittarius nexus on the zodiac while the Silver Gate is the Milky Way ecliptic crossing at the Gemini-Taurus nexus. The Silver Gate was represented by the horns of Isis and the associated bull Taurus.
The Silver Gate is also clearly depicted in the Narmer Palette (3100 BC) named after the Egyptian pharaoh. The Narmer Palette shows the celestial goddess bull Bat (Taurus) with her horns bent over pointing exactly to the place of the rebirth of the Sun, the Silver Gate. The two cow's heads on top of the palette also represent Bat. In-between the two cow goddesses a hieroglyph is depicted representing the rising of the Sun in between two mountains on the horizon. It's a hieroglyph that is very similar to the Akhet hieroglyph with the same significance.

Bat was the goddess of the Milky Way considered to be a pool of Bat's cow milk. Bat was also the goddess of the human soul, the "Ba" that incarnated into human life form. Since the soul incarnated into human life passing through the Silver Gate (crossing of Milky Way and ecliptic), it's not surprising that Bat was both the goddess of the Milky Way and the human soul. Ba is a derivative of Bat, whereas "Ka" represents the human light-body. "Mer" represents the light of the Egyptian light-body-soul complex, the "Mer-Ka-Ba." Bat was also called the "Ba of Two Faces." Egyptologists are in the dark about her name and don't seem to understand that she was called this way, because there are actually two portals both to and from the Netherworld for the Ba to descend into the physical plane (Silver Gate) and ascend from the physical plane (Golden Gate). Both Hathor, Isis and Bat are all cow goddesses and Egyptologists have often pointed out the similarities between these goddesses depicted with cow-horns suspecting that they may have the same origins...they all represent the Silver Gate.
At the bottom of the Narmar palette in-between the horns of the bull, the very same hieroglyph is depicted as the one shown between two Bat bulls on top of the palette. This Akhet-like hieroglyph symbolises the rising Sun on the horizon.

On the other side of the Narmer palette two identical men, hence suggesting twins are depicted. They are both looking over their shoulders to a particular square over the left man’s shoulder. We surmise that the twins represent Gemini which would make sense since the actual ecliptic Milky Way crossing of the Silver Gate occurs in 5° Gemini (sidereal zodiac) and the square could therefore be suggesting the Silver Gate.

The author Audrey of the website "Ancient Egypt" writes while referring to the Narmar Palette: "They present an overview of the astronomical event which occurred on September 21st in 4468BCE, when the Autumn (Fall) Equinox of the Sun was in conjunction with the Milky Way."
At the Autumnal Equinox, the Sun was indeed at the Milky Way, however at the Golden Gate. At the Vernal Equinox of 4468 BC, the Sun resided at the Silver Gate. The author (Audrey) does not seem to realise that this moment represented a Great Celestial Conjunction when the equinox axis (Vernal and Fall) aligned with the Galactic Equator and the Sun resided at the Gates of the Gods.
Instead, while interpreting the hieroglyphs of the 10 decapitated figures near the Solar Barque, he writes quote, "The full meaning of the hieroglyph can therefore be interpreted as 'the Sun at a sacred gateway, opening or portal'..."
While Hathor, Isis and Bat are all cow goddesses, Egyptologists have often pointed out the similarities between these goddesses depicted with cow-horns suspecting that they may have the same origins. . . .
We suggest that they all represent the Silver Gate.
There is an even older Egyptian goddess that later was associated with Isis and Hathor. Her name is Serket and she was the deification of the scorpion goddess who healed stings and bites. Eventually, Serket was associated with Isis and she was said to be just an aspect of Isis. Serket and Isis can therefore be regarded as the ‘Ba of Two Faces’. While Isis represents the Silver Gate at the Gemini-Taurus nexus, Serket is her counterpart and she represents the Golden Gate at the Scorpio-Sagittarius nexus. This is why she’s wearing the scorpion on her head while she joined Ra in his barque on his journey around the zodiac in a Great Year.

The sacred Egyptian scarab beetle is a metaphor for the Sun in the precession cycle whereas the dung ball represents the Sun. The scarab beetle rolls its dung ball with his hind legs backwards, symbolizing the backward motion of the Sun through the zodiac in the precession cycle. Since the scarab beetle has many similarities with a scorpion, we surmise that Serket and the scarab beetle both represent the Golden Gate in Egyptian mythology.

The Ascent of Akrabbim: (Ascent of Scorpions)
|
Introduction:
Akrabbim is the word for scorpion, so it is literally the "ascent of scorpions".
It was north of but near Petra (Sela) being a southern marker for the boundaries of the Amorites: Judges 1:36
|
|
It was a reference used to determine the southern border of Israel and was just north of Kadesh Barnea (Near Petra): Numbers 34:4; Joshua 15:3
We feel the best candidate for the Ascent of Akrabbim is indicated by the blue #1 on the map below that starts at the dead sea and travels east from modern "Feifa" to "At Tafilah" in Jordan. Our close second choice, is blue #2 on the map below that starts from the Arabah valley and goes up the ravine to Dana, Jordan.
Traditionally, ascent of Akrabbim, has always been looked for on the western edge of the Arabah valley, but we feel this is wrong and that an easterly ascending path towards modern Jordan is the best choice. There are two reasons for this choice. First, the Bible says that the Ascent of Akrabbim is north of, but not part of the wilderness of Zin. Joshua 15:3 (Kadesh Barnea was in the wilderness of Zin). Second, Judges 1:36 defines the territory of the Amorites during the period of the judges at about 1200BC to be upward from both the ascent of Akrabbim and Petra. We know that the Amorites were transjordan at this time. It makes better sense to use and easterly ascending path into the territory of the Amorites, rather than the traditional westerly route that ascends into the actual territory occupied by Judah at that time. Of the two candidate "easterly ascending: routes, only the northern one (blue #4 on map) fits all the Bible data perfectly.
A major discovery was made by looking at a single Bible verse: Judges 1:36. We can determine that the ascent of Akrabbim was on the east side of the Arabah valley because of Judges 1:36: "The border of the Amorites ran from the ascent of Akrabbim, from Sela [Petra] and upward." While some may argue that Sela does not refer to Petra, although we know it does, everyone agrees the territory of the Amorites is transjordan. So if the ascent of Akrabbim is being used as a boundary marker for the borders of the Amorites, then the ascent of Akrabbim must be tranjordan. It would make no sense to mark the boundary of the Amorites if the ascent of Akrabbim is on the western side of the Arabah because everyone knows the Amorites were located in what is Modern Jordan at the time of Joshua.
Another evidence that the ascent of Akrabbim travels east from the Arabah Valley up onto transjordan Jordan, and not west into the land of Judah, is the scant references to it in the rest of the Bible. If it was within the land of Judah, as is traditionally suggested (blue #3 on the map below) then we should find several references to it within the normal course of events. But we find this same pattern of lack of references to all the exodus route locations outside the boundaries Israel: ascent of Akrabbim, Kadesh, wilderness of Zin, wilderness of Paran, Mt. Sinai.
A. What the Bible says about the ascent of Akrabbim:
B. How to interpret Judges 1:34-36:
"Then the Amorites forced the sons of Dan into the hill country, for they did not allow them to come down to the valley; yet the Amorites persisted in living in Mount Heres, in Aijalon and in Shaalbim; but when the power of the house of Joseph grew strong, they became forced labor. The border of the Amorites ran from the ascent of Akrabbim, from Sela and upward." Judges 1:34-36

|
In 1406 BC, when the Israelites first came to the promised land, the Amorites controlled the transjordan from the Arnon River to Mt. Hermon and many key cities west of the Jordan including Jerusalem and Hebron. However, after defeating the Amorites, with God's help, they were displaced south of the Arnon River to Petra. But they retained one small stronghold west of the Jordan in the territory of Dan, where they occupied Mount Heres, Aijalon and Shaalbim.
In a kind of domino effect, just as Reuben displaced the Amorites moved south and displaced the Moabites and the Edomites. The Edomites were in turn, displaced south to Mt. Seir, (just north east of the Red Sea).
When Israel first crossed the Jordan with Joshua, the Amorites controlled both Hebron, Jerusalem and Engedi. They were defeated and driven transjordan between the time of Joshua to David.
Of course under David and Solomon, they were completely driven east and south of the entire transjordan area for a time, until the Assyrian captivity in 722 BC.

Ma'ale Aqrabim (Scorpion Ascent)
With the establishment of Provincia Arabia at the beginning of the second century, the Romans paved a road from Hebron via Mamshit to Eilat. The tortuous road wound down to the Zin Valley - some twists were stairs quarried into the rock - through Ma'ale Zafir, also called Roman Ma'ale Aqrabim, after its Biblical name (Numbers 34) Wadi Gov separates Ma'ale Aqrabim from the Serpentine Road,

which the British cleared in 1927 from Mamshit towards En Husub, the Arava and on to Eilat During Operation "Lot" (Nov. 1948) members of the Palmach-"Negev" Brigade traveled down Ma'ale Aqrabim on their way to Sedom. The "Golani" Brigade rode down Ma'ale Aqrabim to Eilat when it captured the Arava in Operation "Uvda" (March 1949) After the War of Independence, the IDF Engineering Corps upgraded the old road to Eilat (April 1950) and established a monument on top. Not far away, on March 17, 1954, terrorists attacked an Egged bus returning from the celebration marking 5 years since the liberation of Eilat, and 11 people were killed." (highway inscription)

F. In 1847 AD the ascent of Akrabbim was located near
Ma'ale Aqrabim:
Rabbi Joseph Schwarz may in fact be the one who is responsible for misleading the search for Kadesh Barnea in the first place. He wrongly places Kadesh south of Gaza based upon similarity of names between several languages.

The Ascent of Akrabbim
מעלה עקרבים
Means literally the ascent of Scorpions, so to say, a most dangerous hill. The celebrated Saadia renders it, in his Arabic translation of the Scriptures, Ali Akbah Akrabin, i.e. or the country of Akbah Akrabin. The Arabs call the eastern bay of the Red Sea, Bachr Akabah; also the entire valley, from the Dead to the red Sea, they call ערבה Araba, Al Gor, also Akabah (see father down, art. Kikkar Hayarden ככר הירדן ). It is therefore to be presumed that this ascent of Akrabbim must be sought for in this valley. And, in truth, westward from the village Chansiri, on the edge of Al Gor, not far from the Wady Kurahy, there is a fearfully high and precipitous rocky acclivity, which to pass is extremely dangerous; and I suppose this is to be the Ascent of Akrabbim, here mentioned. [footnote: I explain Judges 1:36, וגבול האמרי ממעלה עקרבים מהסלה ומעלה "And the coast of the Amorite was from the going up of Akrabbim, from the rock and upward," to refer to the city Selah, mentioned in 2 Kings 14:7, which was also called Joktheel, and at a later period Petra, and which is also found in this Al Gor; and this leads us to place the ascent of Akrabbim northward of Selah or Petra.]
Kadesh-Barnea
. קדש ברנע
No geographer or traveller has hitherto succeeded to discover a trace of this place, But I believe that, through means of our own literary treasures, I shall be able to throw some light on this obscure name, so that it will be possible to fix its position with some degree of certainty.
Our commentators Onkelos, Jonathan, and the Targum Yerushalmi, all translate Kadesh-Barnea with רקם גיעא Rekam Gaya. In this connexion I have also discovered that the Wady al Arish (see farther down, under Nachal Mitzrayim נחל מצרים), united eastwardly with another Wady, which the Arabs call Wady Abiat (White Valley), or Wady Gaian. Another Wady, called by them Wady Bierin, is connected on the southeast with the Wady Gaian. I have scarcely any doubt but that the name of Gaian is derived from the ancient Rekam Gaya, and that Bierin is derived from the ancient Barnea; although the Arabs believe that this name is applied to the Wady because there are found in it several wells. I therefore believe that the true position of Kadesh-Barnea is to be found at the point where the Wadys Gaian and Bierin unite; and this is about 45 English miles south of Gaza

G. Here are photos of a scorpion taken near the ascent of Akrabbim in Israel:
Click here for a complete discussion on the Amorites
Judges 1:34-36 recounts places where Israel failed to drive out the Amorites within the promised land. The narrative begins in the tribe of Dan, an area just north west of Jerusalem and how the Amorites occupied key areas within Dan's inheritance. It mentions two towns of Aijalon and Shaalbim whose location we can generally identify.
Oddly, though, the narrative then gives the border of the Amorites starting from the "Arabah Valley and upward". Such a border definition would basically include 80% of the promised land. Its like saying, the territory of the Amorites is everything north of the southern end of the Dead Sea. So what shall we make of this?
It is important to note a few things about the words in this verse. The word "upward" is common and non-specific. The word "border" is the common word for denoting territory or a border. But it is well known in the Bible that the expression "went up" or "went down" referred to elevation. For example: "Joseph went up from the Nazareth (350 meters above sea level) to Bethlehem (600 m)" Luke 2:4. And again: "Jesus went down (from Cana of Galilee 250 m) to Capernaum (-150 m), then Jesus went up to Jerusalem (750 m)." John 2:11-13. Therefore, the word, "upward" as it is used in Judges 1:36 likely refers to elevation.
So when we apply this common Jewish usage of "upward" in Judges 1:36, we read the text: "The area occupied and controlled by the Amorites started in the valley of the Arabah (50 m) and went up in elevation into the promised land from there."
The two lowest beginning points are the "ascent of Akrabbim" and "Sela" (or Petra). At the time of the failed conquest immediately after the spies came back and gave a bad report, it was the Amorites that repelled the disobedient Jews out of the Negev and back to Petra (Kadesh Barnea was located at or near Petra.)
Now we need to discuss how this impacts our choice of where the "ascent of Akrabbim" is located. There are in fact, 5 possible choices of where this ascent is located. Can Judges 1:36 give us any clues as to which side of the Arabah valley the ascent of Akrabbim on? Since Sela (Petra), is a known location on the east side of the Arabah valley, it seems logical to expect that the ascent of Akrabbim would be located on the west side. If this were truly the case, then it would indicate that the Amorites occupied from the upward and westward ascent of Akrabbim and upward and eastward from Petra. This would make good sense, since Judges 1:34-36 starts with the Amorite occupation of the territory of Dan "upward and west" of the Arabah valley. But this may not be the case, as there are other options.
If the ascent of Akrabbim is located on the eastern Arabah valley ascending upwards towards modern Jordan, as we believe it does, the text of Judges 1:34-36 also fits nicely. Since the Amorites were a very powerful nation, when Israel displaced them, they in turn displaced the Moabites and the Edomites out of their territory in 1406 BC. Remember, the Amorites had the territory north of the Arnon River and controlled Jerusalem, Hebron etc. The tribe of Reuben, Gad and Manassah possessed the territorial stronghold of the Amorites between the Arnon River and Mt. Hermon.
Keeping this in mind when reading Judges 1:34-36, means that the Amorites moved south of the Arnon River, displaced the Moabites and Edomites down as far as the ascent of Akrabbim (east side of the Arabah at the base of the Dead Sea ascending into modern Jordan) and Petra. The one exception was a tiny stronghold in the tribe of Dan as Judges 1:34-36 indicates.
C. Locating the ascent of Akrabbim: (Five possible choices)
(blue #1 on map) Our choice for the ascent of Akrabbim is marked by the blue #1 on map. The most likely easterly ascending route would follow Highway #60. The modern highway attests to its ancient usage. This route starts immediately at the bottom of the Dead Sea and moves up the ravine to the modern town of "At Tafila". Today, this route is the only modern highway (Highway #60) for cars between the Arabah Valley and the plateau in modern Jordan between the Dead sea and the Gulf of Aqaba (Red Sea). Jordanian Highway #60 starts at the town of Fifa in the Arabah Valley and passes through At Tafila and continues east. Here at At Tafila, it intersects with Highway #35. Highway #35 travels north to Amman and south through Petra and all the way to the Gulf of Aqaba. (After connecting with Highway #15. Highway #35 is the main route between the Aqaba and Amman and #15 is the western most highway in Jordan that traces the high ridges on top of the Arabah Valley and is very scenic. The mountains on the eastern Arabah valley are very high (similar to the Rocky Mountains in Canada) and form such a formidable barrier that there is no way to get from the valley into the Jordan Plateau except at either end of the range at the Dead Sea end via Highway 60 or Red Sea via Highway 35. This is the territory of Edom. God told Edom "The arrogance of your heart has deceived you, You who live in the clefts of the rock, In the loftiness of your dwelling place, Who say in your heart, 'Who will bring me down to earth?' "Though you build high like the eagle, Though you set your nest among the stars, From there I will bring you down," declares the Lord." Obadiah 3-4 But for man it was an untouchable fortress.
(blue #2 on map) Our second choice for the ascent of Akrabbim starts on the eastern edge of the Arabah valley and ascents eastward into modern Jordan. Although there are two possible routes, the most likely route starts 35 km south of the Dead Sea, due north of Petra, and exactly opposite Nahal Paran and ascends into Modern Jordan. This route is quite obvious since it follows a major geological valley canyon from the Arabah valley east, onto the plateau in modern Jordan. Further, this
(blue #3 on map) This is the modern choice of location of the ascent of Akrabbim. This route, although it is not the ascent of Akrabbim, does indeed travel along an ancient route from the Arabah valley, through one of Solomon's border fortresses he built at Ein Haseva and into the promised land. It matters not that we reject this as the location for the Ascent of Akrabbim, for the fact remains that this was an ancient route used from the time of Solomon. Although it is a possible location for the Ascent of Akrabbim, there is a better transjordan choice, on the east side of the Arabah valley. (blue #1)
(blue #4 on map) This possible location for the Ascent of Akrabbim, is located half way between Nahal Paran and the Dead Sea on the west side of the Arabah valley, 35 km south of the Dead Sea. Although its path is not known for sure, it likely begins from the Arabah valley near the modern town of En Yahav and follows the wadi drainage path that leads to the south eastern end of Mizpe Ramon crater. If not towards the Mizpe Ramon crater, then it branches north along the same wadi onto the plateau.
(blue #5 on map) Another option, however is that the Ascent of Akrabbim follows the Nahal Paran. This is 65 KM south of the dead sea and is located on the east side of the Arabah valley ascending westward towards the Wadi El Arish drainage system. This is unlikely since it really is not much of an ascent, but a flat wide drainage area. Below is a photo of the center of the Nahal Paran ditch facing west towards Mt. Karkom ascending up the bank out of the valley on highway #40 where Nahal Paran intersects Nahal Sira. As you can see, it is not much of an ascent, more like a wide flood plain. It is not likely that the Nahal Paran is the ascent of Akrabbim.
"Then your border shall turn direction from the south to the ascent of Akrabbim and continue to Zin, and its termination shall be to the south of Kadesh-barnea; and it shall reach Hazaraddar and continue to Azmon." Numbers 34:4
"Then it proceeded southward to the ascent of Akrabbim and continued to Zin, then went up by the south of Kadesh-barnea and continued to Hezron, and went up to Addar and turned about to Karka." Joshua 15:3
"The border of the Amorites ran from the ascent of Akrabbim, from Sela [Petra] and upward." Judges 1:36

Pléyades (mitología)
De Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre
Para otros usos de este término, véase Pléyades.
En la mitología griega, las Pléyades (en griego Πλειας Pleias, ‘muchas’; Πλειάδες Pleiades, ‘hijas de Pléyone’; o Πελειαδες Peleiades, ‘hijas de palomas’) eran las siete hijas del titán Atlas y la ninfa marina Pléyone, nacidas en el monte Cileno. Son hermanas de Calipso, Hiante, las Híades y las Hespérides. Junto con las siete Híades eran llamadas Atlántidas, Dodónidas o Nisíadas, niñeras y maestras del infante Dioniso. Las Pléyades eran ninfas en el cortejo de Artemisa, compartían la afición por la caza de ésta, y como ella intentaban mantener su virginidad.
Existe cierto debate sobre el origen del nombre «Pléyades». Anteriormente se aceptaba que derivaba del nombre de su madre, Pléyone. Sin embargo, es más probable que provenga de πλεϊν, ‘navegar’, pues el grupo de estrellas homónimo es visible de noche en el Mediterráneo durante el verano, de mediados de mayo hasta principios de noviembre, lo que coincidía con la temporada de navegación en la antigüedad. Esta etimología fue reconocida por los antiguos, incluyendo a Virgilio (Geórgicas i.136–8).
Las Pléyades debieron haber tenido considerables encantos, pues varios de los más importantes dioses olímpicos (incluyendo a Zeus, Poseidón y Ares) mantuvieron relaciones con ellas, relaciones que inevitablemente acarrearon el nacimiento de varios hijos:
En el cúmulo abierto de las Pléyades sólo seis de las estrellas brillan intensamente. La séptima, Mérope, lo hace débilmente porque está eternamente avergonzada de haber mantenido relaciones con un mortal, Sísifo. Algunos mitos también dicen que la estrella que no brilla es Electra, en señal de luto por la muerte de Dárdano, aunque otras pocas versiones dicen que se trata de Estérope.
Tras ser Atlas obligado a cargar sobre sus hombros con el mundo, Orión persiguió durante cinco años a las Pléyades, y Zeus terminó por transformarlas primero en palomas y luego en estrellas para consolar a su padre. Se dice que la constelación de Orión sigue persiguiéndolas por el cielo nocturno. Según otras versiones de la historia, las siete hermanas se suicidaron porque estaban tristísimas por la suerte que había corrido su padre, Atlas, o bien por la pérdida de sus hermanas, las Híades. Tras esto Zeus las inmortalizaría subiéndolas al cielo.
El poeta griego Hesíodo menciona a las Pléyades varias veces en su obra Trabajos y días. Dado que éstas son principalmente estrellas estivales, destacan prominentemente en el antiguo calendario agrícola. He aquí un consejo de Hesíodo:
Y si el anhelo te lleva a navegar en mares tormentosos,
cuando las Pléyades huyan del poderoso Orión
y se hundan en las brumosas profundidades
y todos los borrascosos vientos rujan,
no sigas entonces con tu barco en el oscuro mar
sino, como te pido, recuerda trabajar en tierra.
