In the affidavit, the employee was asked to sign that he would not use the following 30 common medicines, because he was asking for a religious exemption for the Covid-19 vaccinations based on fetal cell testing. It stated that these medicines all used fetal cells in their development and testing, just like the Covid-19 vaccines did, and if he was objecting to the vaccine based on being tested on fetal cell lines, was he willing to sign that he would also not use these common medicines in the future? I looked up the history of each item in the chart, and based on patent date, or release date and then comparing the date of first study using fetal cells done of the active ingredient, show that 27 of these could not have been produced, manufactured, or tested prior to release on aborted fetal cells. The three that are produced using aborted fetal cells are all vaccines: Zostavax for shingles, MMR vaccine (measles, mumps, rubella), and Havrix for Hepatitis A. The list of medicines evaluated are: Tylenol, Ibuprofen, Benadryl, Claritin, Pepto Bismol, Maalox, Sudafed, Zoloft, Aspirin,Simvastatin, Albuterol, Suphedrine, Tums, Ex-Lax, Preparation H, Prilosec OTC, Lipitor, Zocor, Enbrel, Azithromycin, Senokot, Zostavax,
MMR Vaccine, Varilrix, Xigris, HIV-1, Acetaminophen, Havrix, Motrin,
Tylenol Cold & Flu. Two copies of this report are given. One copy is highlighted for easy scanning. The other copy is plain, for easy use in copying and reproducing. Permission is granted to copy and reproduce this report as necessary or desired.

The “INNIN” part of his name is The goddess of Uruk, who was known by many names in the Neo-Babylonian times. When one substitutes one of her names, “Belti-*’, for “INNIN”, his name then becomes Belteshazzar, which is the name Daniel was given when he got to Babylon . Innin-šar-usur shares a grandfather with a person who can be shown to be Shadrach, one of Daniel’s known friends , and he lived in the right time period and place to be the Daniel of the Bible. There is no other contradictory information known about this man that prevents him from being Daniel, and he has four positive, identifying characteristics that match Daniel. Therefore, until other information proves otherwise, this man could be the Daniel of the Bible, recorded as his Babylonian name of Belteshazzar.

construction of the tabernacle in Exodus 38:25-26, calculations were made using the conversions
implied in the immediate texts. Then, the total was compared with Ezekiel's description of setting up
the new Temple measuring system, and using the Babylonian mina which is presumably the measuring
system with which Ezekiel would have been familiar. It is also reasonable that he was re-establishing
the original temple/tabernacle/sanctuary shekel's weight, since his conversion between shekels and
mina do not match the reported Babylonian conversion factor. By substitution, then, the Sanctuary
Shekel as described in Exodus 38:25-26 is very likely 10.0 g. A literature search confirms this
conclusion in at least 2 sources. The conclusion that there were therefore only 50 shekels per mina in
the Hebraic system is confirmed in at least one source. The Troy system of weights may be based on
the talent from the Mosaic era which uses the 10.0 g per sanctuary shekel.

Peter and his fishing partners caught so many fish that both of their boats started to sink. 1 We wanted to know the economic impact to Peter and his partners from this catch of fish. Using the dimensions of a boat from approximately the same time and location, we estimate that a total of 62,696 pounds of fish filled the two boats. A wage and commodity price law from 301 AD indicates this gave each of the four fishing partners 24.5-36.4 years' salary at General Laborer rates, or 12.1-18.2 years at the skilled labor rates, depending on the fish's quality. With modern financial advice saying one needs 25 years' expenses in savings to live entirely from the interest, this put Peter and his partners in good stead to leave the fishing business and work for God full time. Introduction and Background: While preparing study guides for the book of Luke, 2 we came to the story of Peter letting Jesus use his boat to preach a sermon to the people on the shores of Lake Gennesaret, another name for the Sea of Galilee 3. After He was finished using the boat, Jesus asked Peter to go back out into the lake, and let down his nets for a draw of fish. Peter decided to do it, and pulled in a record catch. He called his fishing partners over to help him, and the Bible says that both the boats were starting to sink because of the significant number of fish. After this large catch of fish, Peter and his partners decided to leave the fishing profession, and be full-time disciples.

The Babylonian Chronicle ABC 7, also known as the Nabonidus Chronicle, has not only the actions ... more The Babylonian Chronicle ABC 7, also known as the Nabonidus Chronicle, has not only the actions of King Nabonidus and Belshazzar the Crown Prince, but in Nabonidus' sixth year (550 BCE), there is a seemingly unrelated entry about Cyrus, king of Ansan, defeating Astyages, the last king of the Medes1. This is not the only account of Cyrus in the ABC 7, for we see another entry about Cyrus in Nabonidus' ninth year, when he (Cyrus) defeats a king of another country,2 and another possible mention of him in Nabonidus' sixteenth year. These entries are up to eleven years before Cyrus took over Babylon in Nabonidus' seventeenth year. A possible reason the Babylonians started monitoring the actions of the Medes and Persians can be shown from Daniel 8:20, in which Daniel was told by an angel that his vision of the ram and the goat meant the Medes and Persians would be a world power that would fight with and be defeated by the Greeks. In Daniel 8:27, Daniel says he went back to work doing the king's business, and talked with people about the dream, but no one understood it. Daniel 8:1 records Daniel's vision of the ram and goat happened in the third year of Belshazzar's reign.

By close examination of the Nabonidus Chronicle, the Nabonidus Cylinder from Sippar, and the Verse Account of Nabonidus, we can show that the third year of Belshazzar was the fifth year of Nabonidus3. Since the monitoring of the Medes and Persians on the Babylonian Chronicle started in the sixth year of Nabonidus, which is the year after Daniel had the dream of the ram and the he goat, we can provide a reason why the Babylonians would start recording on their chronicle what the Medes and Persians were doing: Daniel had identified a threat to their status of world power, and they started monitoring the actions of this new coalition that was forming. It would be another eleven years before the Medes and Persians took over Babylon, in fulfillment of Daniel's vision.

In 2015, my husband and I illustrated the book of Exodus, for ease in understanding and memorizin... more In 2015, my husband and I illustrated the book of Exodus, for ease in understanding and memorizing it.1 There was too much variation in the published literature for the modern equivalents of the Biblical measures of hin, omer, and ephah to portray confidently their volumes. Also, the ratios between the hin and the omer were such that a viable bread could not be made from the recipe in Exodus 29:40 that could be baked in two different thicknesses, and prepared two ways in a pan with oil, as described in Leviticus 2, and Exodus 29:2. We are proposing that these preparation methods were shallow-oil pan frying, and deep-fat-frying.

Therefore, we set out to determine the values for the hin, omer, and ephah that would comply with the various constraints set in the Bible. We determined by experimental evidence the maximum amount of olive oil that could be absorbed by modern wheat, with a minimum of water to make a viable bread prepared as described. It was 5 parts oil to 16 parts flour, to 4 parts water.

We then evaluated the remaining constraints we could find in the Bible for these units, and used the experimentally determined ratio to set upper and lower bounds on the other units. Our calculations and analysis show:
The range for the omer is 3.2C – 2.8 C. From the table of possible values of the omer, we found the tightest range an omer could be by using the highest low value and the lowest high value.

The average is 3.4 C for the average mid range. This was found by taking the average of the mid-range column.

The reported range and average are a bit strange, due to the consequences of using the highest low value and the lowest high value. They did not end up being in the normal order of low-high range, and the
average was also not in the middle of the reported low and high. However, this represents the tightest value range that the omer could be, It is in the range of 2.8 -3.4 US Cups, with the average being 3.4 C.

Using the Biblical equivalent of 10 omer = 1 ephah, then
The range for the ephah is 2.0 US gallons - 1.75 US Gallons, with an average of the mid range of
2.1 US gallons.2 (or a modern peck.) These values were found by multiplying the omer ranges by 10.
The range for the hin is 4.0 C or less – 3.5 C or less, using the lowest low value and the lowest
high value. The average is 4.0 C or less for the average mid range.

Since the hin and the omer have the same ranges and basically the same average, there is a possibility that they are the same value, of approximately 3.5 C. However, bread can be made without any oil at all, and the values in our chart are maximums at each level. So, we could show the Egyptian value of a hin at 2.0 C, which corresponds to our modern US pint, and the omer at somewhere between 3-4 C, which corresponds to our modern quart, and the ephah as a large bowl with a capacity of close to 2 gallons, or our modern peck. This will satisfy all the Biblical constraints, and would provide a reasonable amount of Kcal as a daily ration for the omer, and also would produce loaves of bread that would fit on the showbread table.

It also provides verification of many prophesies of Jeremiah that were fulfilled. Items discussed include: 1. Nebuchadnezzar as Crown Prince and his Ascension year, as well as the subsequent numbering system for the years of his reign. 2. Nebuchadnezzar's defeat of the Egyptian army at Carchemis, as listed in Jeremiah 46:2, while

This is part one, with part two forthcoming. In this series, we read through the SAA 07 057 "Account of Precious Items" and show it is a record of the people and items described in Ezra 1 and 2: the return of the goods and people from Babylon to Jerusalem.

In this slide deck we cover the beginning of the SAA 07 057, starting with the Crown Prince, and going through the Governor of Arrapha. It corresponds with lectures 1-27 with the same titles. The lectures can be accessed with subtitles here: https://vimeo.com/manage/showcases/9417536/info or without subtitles here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.6081411361885597&type=3

We cover the following people and topics:
1. Systematic ways to change names in the Archeological records to match names in the Bible.
2. Sheshbazzar is Tabshazzar, the Chief Treasurer of the Empire under Sargon II. He is also the Shenazzar of I Chronicles 3:17
3. Sargon II is Cyrus II, by many proofs, including reading the SAAS 02 B04 and B06, as well as the Composite list of the Assyrian Eponym List. This includes showing Assir-bani, the Governor of Calah, as one of his officers also brought down the cherubim from Babylon to Jerusalem, and the statement on the SAAS 02 B04 that the captivity of the Jews was lifted under Sargon II.
4. Using the Assyrian Eponym lists then to find Relaiah, the Grand Vizier, who is listed in Ezra 2:2
5. Finding Rehum, the Commander-in-chief of the Right, who is also listed in Ezra 2:2
6. Finding Zerubbabel, who is also listed in Ezra 2:1, by finding his peers and associates on the SAA 13 174. These include Shadrach, Abednego, and two first cousins not mentioned in the Bible. We also find Zerubbabel's family, including Salathiel, his father, Gimil-Nana as Jeconiah, his grandfather, and Meshullum, his son. We also find out that Shadrach and Zerubbabel were brothers.
7. Finding Uzai, the governor of Arrapha, who is mentioned in Nehemiah 3:24-25, by reading the SAA 01 064, a report sent back to the king by Sheshbazzar describing a wall dispute between the Governor of Arrapha and the Governor of Calah. We find the exact spot on the wall in Nehemiah 3 that this described. Other confirmation from the archives of Issar-duri show that the Jewish captives of Arrapha also had their own servants, matching Ezra 2: 65.
8. Other exciting confirmations of items in Ezra and Nehemiah, including the fire reported by Hannani to Nehemiah in Nehemiah 1:1-3.

This paper discusses the similarity between the Living Temples being built now with UN support and the Pagan groves in the days of Ahab and Jezebel. Also discussed is Isaiah 66:17, which states when Jesus returns, he will destroy those worshiping in the groves.

Jupiter is the king of the planets, and Saturn represents Saturday, or the Sabbath. Therefore, the conjunction of Jupiter with Saturn could be showing the King of the Sabbath. Jesus said He was the Son of Man, and Lord of the Sabbath in Luke 6:5. Therefore, this conjunction is a representation of the Son of Man as Lord of the Sabbath in the heavens. If this is the sign talked about by Jesus, then we can expect worldwide sorrow to follow.

Daniel chapter 11 gives characteristics of the world leaders mostly during the Greek empire, and ... more Daniel chapter 11 gives characteristics of the world leaders mostly during the Greek empire, and transitions to the Roman empire, as two rival powers: the king of the north, and the king of the south. The last king of the north is described in detail in verses 21-45. Biblical historians have had difficulty in identifying this last king of the north in either Greek or Roman history, and many Bible scholars have agreed this is describing a ruler in the future. In this talk, we look at each of the verses about the last king of the north, and compare it with three modern leaders: Pope Francis, Donald Trump, and Vladimir Putin. By showing the actions of these leaders and their predecessors, the assignment can be made to one of these leaders, as ruler over a specific territory. Since the verses span the rule of more than one of these leaders, the prophecy can be understood to show that it is the leader of a specific territory who is the last power before the great time of trouble starts, and Jesus' return happens, as described in Daniel chapter 12. A review of Psalm 91 is also given as comfort at the end of the presentation.

This talk discusses Jezebel's personal seal, the Kurkh Monolith, the Mesha Stele, and the Tel Dan Stele to show evidence for both Ahab and Jezebel. In addition to Ahab and Jezebel, minor discussions show evidence for these other Biblical characters: Omri, Ahaziah, Joram , and Jehu, kings of Israel; Ben-Hadad and Hazael, kings of Syria; and Ahazhiah, king of Judah. This talk comes after "The Black Obelisk of Shalmaneser III" talk.

The signing of the Abraham Accords on September 15, 2020 between Israel, the United Arab Emirates... more The signing of the Abraham Accords on September 15, 2020 between Israel, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain, as brokered by the United States, was significant historically, and prophetically, as seen by verses from Jeremiah 6. When Ashkelon and Ashdod were attacked after the Abraham Accords were signed, it seems that Zephaniah 2 could also be seen as being relevant. Both these chapters signal impending judgement or destruction, and call the reader to repentance. We would do well to heed that advice.

It also is evidence that Hazael, King of Aram Damascus (Syria) was a contemporary of Jehu, as seen in I Kings 19:17. This talk comes after the "Going to the Bathroom in Lachich" talk.

Hopefully, by the end of this presentation, you will think so, too.

A stone toilet was found in a shrine in Lachish during the reign of Hezekiah. Along with other evidence that the shrine was deliberately desecrated, there were seals from Hezekiah, which supports the account of Hezekiah's reform in II Kings 18. A similar religious reform by Jehu about 100 years earlier is also discussed. This talk follows the Bronze Trees in China Talk.

The Babylonian Chronicle ABC 7, also known as the Nabonidus Chronicle, has not only the actions of King Nabonidus and Belshazzar the Crown Prince, but in Nabonidus' sixth year (550 BCE), there is a seemingly unrelated entry about Cyrus, king of Ansan, defeating Astyages, the last king of the Medes1. This is not the only account of Cyrus in the ABC 7, for we see another entry about Cyrus in Nabonidus' ninth year, when he (Cyrus) defeats a king of another country,2 and another possible mention of him in Nabonidus' sixteenth year. These entries are up to eleven years before Cyrus took over Babylon in Nabonidus' seventeenth year. A possible reason the Babylonians started monitoring the actions of the Medes and Persians can be shown from Daniel 8:20, in which Daniel was told by an angel that his vision of the ram and the goat meant the Medes and Persians would be a world power that would fight with and be defeated by the Greeks. In Daniel 8:27, Daniel says he went back to work doing the king's business, and talked with people about the dream, but no one understood it. Daniel 8:1 records Daniel's vision of the ram and goat happened in the third year of Belshazzar's reign. By close examination of the Nabonidus Chronicle, the Nabonidus Cylinder from Sippar, and the Verse Account of Nabonidus, we can show that the third year of Belshazzar was the fifth year of Nabonidus3. Since the monitoring of the Medes and Persians on the Babylonian Chronicle started in the sixth year of Nabonidus, which is the year after Daniel had the dream of the ram and the he goat, we can provide a reason why the Babylonians would start recording on their chronicle what the Medes and Persians were doing: Daniel had identified a threat to their status of world power, and they started monitoring the actions of this new coalition that was forming. It would be another eleven years before the Medes and Persians took over Babylon, in fulfillment of Daniel's vision. Additional material is added to show the prophecies of Isaiah predicted the Medes and Persians would take over Babylon up to 175 years prior to the event, and the prophecies of Jeremiah predicted 55 years prior to the event that the general who would take over Babylon would be from Gutium. This is then compared to Nabonidus' seventeenth year, where it is recorded that Ugbaru, the governor of Gutium, with the army of Cyrus, took over Babylon as the prophecies said.

The average is 3.4 C for the average mid range. This was found by taking the average of the mid-range column.

It is also shown these artifacts date to the time prior to the Flood, at about 3000 B.C. This makes them older than Moses. The Jews didn't have any contact with the Chinese until the silk road trade. Therefore, since these artifacts are separated in time and place from the Jewish Bible, these bronze trees provide an independent source of the information we have about Adam and Eve, the Garden of Eden, and the origin of sin. An explanation of why these trees and other statues were found deliberately broken, burned and buried, is shown as evidence of repentance following the preaching of Enoch, Methuselah, and Noah. A call to repentance is given for us, too.

The Babylonian city of Larsa started declining in population shortly after Cyrus took over, when ... more The Babylonian city of Larsa started declining in population shortly after Cyrus took over, when a prominent business family and craftsmen left. It had a slowly declining population during the time of Cyrus to Cambyses, and the entire town was vacated in the second year of Darius. The neighboring town of Uruk, which had a lot of craftsmen, also saw a near-complete depopulation in the second year of Darius. By looking at the Bible, in particular the books of Ezra, Nehemiah, Haggai, and Zechariah, we can show that Larsa's depopulation curve matches the times when the Bible describes the migration of Jews out of Babylonian cities, and going back to Jerusalem. A large wave of Jewish people went back to Jerusalem in the first year of Cyrus, to start building the temple, as seen in Ezra 1-2. There was migration back and forth between Jerusalem and Babylon, which explains the slowly declining population of Larsa between Cyrus and Cambyses. Finally, by showing that Larsa was a Jewish town, and Uruk could provide craftsmen to rebuild the temple, Zechariah's and Haggai's call to come and finish the temple in the second year of Darius provides a motive for these towns to become abandoned.

By examining details from each document, the probable date that Daniel would have been put into the lions' den can be found. To show that Darius the Mede issued the law that everyone needed to worship the God of Daniel because He rescued Daniel from the lions' den, as recorded in Daniel 6:25-27, we analyze the name of the last sangu of the Sealand, and show the abundance of temples to EA that flourished throughout the region of Babylon and the Levant up through the Persian times.

This is a talk which shows the East India House Inscription can be used to verify Daniel 1:1-2, a... more This is a talk which shows the East India House Inscription can be used to verify Daniel 1:1-2, and also help date when the Book of Daniel was written. Daniel says Nebuchadnezzar put the articles of the temple in Jerusalem into the temple of his god, and into the treasure house of his god. This is very specific, and suggests there was a temple complex with multiple buildings with different functions.

The East India House Inscription was buried until 1803, and is Nebuchadnezzar's record of how he renovated the temple his father built, made a treasure house to his god beside the temple, put a wall around them to make a temple complex, and put treasures in the treasure house from all the lands around him that he had collected as spoils. Nebuchadnezzar and Daniel agree.

By examining the BCHP 04 and BCHP 06 documents that are during the end of Alexander the Great's time, and during the early Seleucid era, and quoting Herodotus, we show the temple complex was in ruins as early as 484 BC. Comparing both Herodotus' record and modern descriptions of the Esagil temple complex, we see they omitted the existence of this treasure house of Nebuchadnezzar's god in the temple complex. The temple was in ruins by 164-167 BC, and no one could go to see the treasure house.

Therefore, by showing that Daniel's record agrees with the East India House inscription in where Nebuchadnezzar put the treasures he collected as spoils from other lands, and the later historians and documents about the temple do not mention this treasure house, it can be shown that the book of Daniel had to have been written when it says it was written: during the time period of Nebuchadnezzar through Cyrus, and not during the time of Antiochus IV Epiphanes in 164-167 BC, as some assert. There was not enough information available to writers and scholars at that time in 164-167 BC to have known where Nebuchadnezzar put the treasures he took from the temple in Jerusalem.

There is a man on Nebuchadnezzar's Prism named Ea-Dayyan. By comparing 6 identifiable characteristics between him and the Daniel of Bible, I conclude that Ea-Dayyan is the Daniel of the Bible, listed as his Hebrew name of Daniel. A formal paper will follow with more discussion. Here is the outline form.

This is consistent with Nebuchadnezzar's own testimony recorded in Daniel chapter 4.
