Story Grid Updates

Phil Stone — Fri, 29 May 2026 19:29:47 GMT

This week there were more interesting updates to the Story Grid app. Before that, changes to search in the BRB. Then status on Paleo Bible work. After that we turn to Zionist control of X, match dates for this week, watch dates for next week and finally a headline review.

BRB

Most Bible apps have a word search function. Most of those search functions allow users to select what part of the Bible they want to search. Our BRB app, linked above, has been missing that ability for a long time. This week that function has been added to search.

The code to generate the search results word list is particularly messy. It has been around for a very long time. I haven't really wanted to touch that code because of the risk of taking 2 weeks to completely rewrite it.

In preparing last week's blog I was doing word searches in the BRB. I really wanted to search in sections of the BRB instead of the whole thing. I suddenly had a flash. Don't add this feature by rewriting the search code. Instead, make this a function of how the search results are actually displayed.

The hooks in the code to make this go are very minor. The rest is done through the normal option system along with cleaver style sheets. It only took a couple days for Ryan and I to get this worked out.

To play with this new feature, use the BRB to go search for a common word, like Joshua. This occurs over 3700 times. This is the sort of word where you probably want to narrow the scope of the answer. In the search box, you can see new buttons that narrow the results. You can move around in those results by tapping the different buttons.

This is a nice addition to one of our main apps.

TT?

Once this was working we stopped to look at doing the same thing in the TT. In the end, we did not change the TT. There were several reasons. The biggest problem is that there are no generally known sections for the TT like there is for standard Bibles. The other issue is that the TT is a smaller book, so there is less burden from long lists of search results. So the need in the TT is not as pressing as in the BRB.

There is another problem unique to the TT. That app still gets changed as the Story Grid gets adjusted, so any sort of section related search buttons would need to be rethought with each new iteration. At least for now, it seems best to leave the TT search function alone.

While Ryan was looking at the problem of perhaps inventing such sections, he had another major flurry of insight on the Story Grid, which is also updated this week.

Story Grid

The last major change in the Story Grid app was to pull the minor prophets up to the Ha row which sits under the rows dealing with the kings. These prophets provide back stories to the chronological stories that come in the earlier Kings related rows.

That shift puts those minor prophets in a better row in the table, but it upsets some features of the placement of some of the lower rows.

Mid Row Adjustments

At the start of this week, the middle rows of the table were adjusted yet again to balance out some of the interesting row matches that have existed in the past.

The main move was to push Tobit and his friends down to the Mo row, and raise Job up to the Yo row. Job's name starts with Yo. The Yo letter is a hand. The basic protection on Job is that the accuser is not allowed to lay a hand on Job's body. This constraint appears to be the marker that the Book of Job is intended to sit on the Yo, or Hand, row.

Psalms and Proverbs were returned to the middle rows. Psalms is now on the Ku row. Ku is a sprout than can grow into a tree. Psalms 1 uses the example of a tree planted by a stream of water. So the tree reference appears to be indicating the row where Psalms belongs.

Proverbs is now on the Lu row. Lu is a shepherd's staff. Story 300 starts this row. You can read in that story the introduction to Proverbs. That introduction to Proverbs deals with instruction, which is a key idea in shepherding people.

Tobit now starts the Mo row. Tobit was carried captive to Nineveh, which is along the main river system of the Euphrates. So these mid table adjustments seemed to finish off the row placement across the middle of the Story Grid table.

This was the status when we started looking at search.

Sections In The TT

After the Story Grid adjustments mentioned above, Ryan returned to the question of looking for section headings in the TT. He has previously had such headings, but had not looked at them for awhile.

The link given here is to the Contents page in the TT app. That page now has what look to be the inspired section headings for the inspired text. Section names themselves, of course, still subject to change. But, this is most likely the correct and inspired list because there are some important tricks going on. This also starts to firmly establish the row order running down the Story Grid table itself.

If you look at that Table of Contents page, you will see there are 13 sections. (Though Hebrews may linger as a 14th stand alone section. This work is still going on.) Each of these section headings appears limited to whole rows in the Story Grid table.

The trick here is that each section follows the Revelation 7 tribe order. Dan is at the end. Each of the blessings pronounced by Jacob over his sons contains hints at details that map into the same matched sections in the overall flow of inspired scripture.

To get this grid to work correctly, Paul's Epistles probably need to move down so they fall under the tribe of Benjamin. This brings the New Testament into more conventional order. This change in the location of Paul's writings shows up in the TT and Story Grid apps as of this week.

Interested readers can look at that contents page and think about how the various promises by Jacob apply to the sections running down the overall work. Ryan is currently working on his own detailed notes. He is doing this by building a series of additional tables that grid off the books. That work is ongoing, and may change some of how we understand this problem. But, let me survey what looks to be going on.

70 Books

Until this week there had not been any particular goal for the number of books that fall across those sections. But once you see Jacob's 12 sons as models for the sections, then the 70 (or perhaps 75) heirs of Jacob that go down to Egypt may then become a count on the overall number of books.

Note that 70 shows up in various places, such as 1) the table of nations. 2) Jacob's heirs that go to Egypt. 3) The Exodus era elders that went up and had a meal with Joshua. 4) The 70 disciples that Joshua sent out 2 by 2.

These 4 examples, if all inspired, would then hint at a list of 4, which is pointing at ciphers. Each book in the list of 70 may become a unit of text for the cipher system. I digress.

The story of Jacob's heirs becoming 70 is especially hinting that the next level down in the Table of Contents in the TT should be a list of 70 individual books.

If you look at the contents page again, you will now see 70 books listed there, numbered 0 through 69. Ryan has adjusted the list at the most likely locations where book breaks can be deduced. This is still a work in process, but you can see where it currently stands.

Alternative Tables

This number of books has 2 more alternative tables for understanding the books themselves. Joshua sent out his 70 disciples 2 by 2. This is idiom for sending them out in pairs. So the list of 70 books should also have some sort of innate pairing that runs down the list. So a book table that is 2 wide and 35 tall should show some level of content pairing at each row.

The crown 3d exhibit is designed to map out 70 years. So with 70 books we now have an obvious map from books to time.

That Crown exhibit timeline goes around the room 10 times. There are 7 years, or 7 times, for each circuit around the room. This crown pattern is hinted at in Daniel's 70 weeks. In that case the 70 and 7 factors are multiplied instead of divided. Leviticus 26 is also indicating that where ever you may be on that circuit, that you can look up or down by 1 row and find matched or reversed stories.

So if there are 70 books in the overall Testimony then there may be a repeating pattern every 7 books down the list. So there would be 10 such rows of 7 columns if we were building a grid like table. This becomes yet another grid that may inform finding correct book breaks. If it works as we expect, there may also be intended content matches on these cycles of 7 books.

This 7 by 10 table is a current work item for Ryan. He is out to see if he can dial in the overall structure of the inspired Testimony. It looks like this is not going to be all that hard to finish off. But, there are many fine points in the study.

Internal Lists of 12

There are 2 places in the Table of Contents where you can see lists of 12 individual books that sit inside a larger section. These 2 places are the Minor Prophets and the Pauline Epistles.

As these are lists of 12 we would think that these would also follow the tribe list and thus Jacob's blessings. This was perhaps just a hunch before. But now, these lists of 12 books appear to intentionally follow the tribes. This is likely to be the intended way to figure out the inspired order of the books in those 2 sections, especially the order for the Minor Prophets. In the case of Paul, his travel itinerary in Acts helps set the order.

625 Stories

Of course below the 70 books we also find the 625 stories of the Story Grid. These stories do not spread evenly into the 70 books. They are generally placed in the story grid because of the overall design of the Testimony itself. As we start to finally understand the overall design, the stories themselves will continue to settle into place.

This week's changes in understanding of the whole system is shifting the low level stories around in various ways. Some of the hard problems in figuring out the Story Grid now look easier to solve.

Life Diary

Some long time readers here may remember a timeline study that we called the "life diary." The idea was that all humans on earth run through the books of the Bible, in order, at the pace of 1 book per year of life.

We studied this, and we had a friend who tried it against his own life. The result was very promising.

But we were still struggling with book order and did not have strong conviction that we could get good "signal" out of the "noise" to prove this would work for everyone.

Now it looks like the 70 books are going to map out to the 70 "years" that go with the crown exhibit. This would also be the 70 years of Joshua's life. Eventually, this work can be checked against the trunk timeline of the text. If this works for Joshua, then he may be following a pattern that everyone else can theoretically be following.

So now there is a path for internally confirming the Life Diary hypothesis. Once we can do that, it then becomes relatively easy to apply to individual lives.

Over the years we've touched on important prophetic ideas but at the time did not have the tools to fully understand. Life Diaries are yet another such example of something that may turn out to be very important.

Shop Work: Paleo Bible

This week I have continued to work on the tool chain for the Paleo Bible app and manuscript.

Because this is ultimately an audit, the code itself needs to be written in a certain simple style. Anyone who knows basic Javascript should be able to follow the code without anything tricky or clever going on. Just like writing for English as a Second Language readers, I am coding for Javascript as a Second Language programmers.

So this week I tore through everything done so far and made it as simple as possible. Build steps, for example, need to be named as step1, step2 and so on. This makes the order of the steps easy to understand.

Similar code should never be duplicated, as much as possible the code should be shared between steps. Reading and writing the whole Bible, for example, is now a library function. The format between steps is now also always the same, an annotated list of words.

Each step in the process needs to generate a new copy of the Bible stored in the file system with some set of changes. This allows manual inspection of the results of each step in the chain. Each step must also generate statistics for what was done at that step.

In cleaning up these steps I also put in better input sanity checking. There were several places where complex Aramaic punctuation was generating blank Paleo words. The Aramaic to Paleo conversion step now promotes complex punctuation towards single Paleo Colons and Paleo Quads. These fixes changed the overall word count. That count is now reflecting the word definitions that matter to paleo, it is not counting blank spaces between punctuation characters.

As far as the eventual audit is concerned, all inbound punctuation must be treated as a suggestion. So promoting punctuation does not appear to be a serious issue. All of the steps can be run again, so this is not a serious issue.

Lexicon Work

With code cleanup done, I turned my attention to the lexicon. This is the first input to the audit process that comes from outside of the inbound texts. This is the step I have started in the past, but I have never been happy with the results.

This time, I am trying a very different process for creating the lexicon. This has a very different file format. The lexicon configuration files are now organized similarly to what will be shown in the lexicon appendix to the Paleo Bible app. So the categorization process for words going into the lexicon is happening early in this process and being done 1 word at a time.

I have started to load the lexicon with the most common words. This is giving me coverage. But it is also giving me the chance to check the design of the lexicon. I need to make sure the lexicon files can express all the issues that actually occur with real words.

There is also code that refactors the lexicon entries so that they can be easily applied to the running text. That refactoring has never existed in previous attempts at this work.

This format takes more effort to write initially. But, it makes far more sense from the perspective of someone trying to understand the code itself. It will also be much easier to maintain and to extend should that be needed.

The lexicon configuration files are organized strictly around Paleo root words. The actual inbound forms are listed under the root. The first step is to identify prefixes. Then the known root/suffix pairs are listed along with English that should be displayed.

As of this week, the lexicon configuration files currently explain what to do with about 1/4 of all inbound words. (Though to be fair, this is a small fraction of the actual work, it only sounds good.)

Next on deck are more build steps that apply the lexicon to the inbound text and also work the audit system against the text itself. More on this in future weeks.

X Algorithms

For many months, Elon has been boasting that there is no secret stuff going on with the X algorithm. He has claimed that anyone can read the code which is publicly available. So there is an implication that there is no Zionist control behind X. This is patently false as I will get to below.

As a practical matter, most of the large accounts on X have seen a dramatic drop in readership since these changes went online. It does not look like there is any good way, nor reason, to attempt to generate an audience on that platform. The hope that flowed when Elon bought out that platform is now gone.

The link above is to a post on X which explains how the new X algorithm works. It explains why there has been such widespread dramatic drops in readership. You can read through this post in order to get a technical understanding of what is going on.

Protocols of Zion

When I read through that post I realized I was looking at a nearly perfect implementation of the algorithms first described publicly in a book called the "Protocols Of Zion." That book is now around 120 years old. It was a key part of Henry Ford's litigation with bankers, when they tried to take the Ford Motor company from its original founder.

That book explains the strategy for how Zionists cover up crimes committed against the public. Ultimately the goal is to prevent the public from being able to reach consensus on who caused certain classes of crimes. Examples of these crimes include crimes like assassinating President Kennedy, or blowing up the Twin Towers or getting Massie removed from office.

This group of criminals follow the "Protocols" to solve certain problems. The most basic problem is that the truth of their actions is almost always published. Their crimes are almost always correctly documented in media source that is readily available to the public.

So their real problem is how to hide from such truth.

If their strategy was to deny the truth of such crimes they would only attract more attention to themselves. Individual criminals often find themselves in this situation. The Protocols explain various better tricks to hide from the public.

Flooding

The most important, and most common, trick is a strategy called "flooding." They intentionally promote alternative explanations that provide alternative ways of understanding what happened. This is not done with just 1 alternative explanation. This is done with a multitude of alternative explanations. They want to flood all media channels with as many alternative explanations as possible. They don't even need to invent alternatives. They just promote as many alternatives as they can find.

In 1905 this meant flooding in magazines, books and newspapers. By the 1920s this included radio. By the 1950s this included TV. By the late 1990s this included websites. Now this includes social media. Whatever media the public follows, that is where the flooding must happen.

In this way, the public can never reach consensus about what happened.

Examples

Was 911 a bunch of terrorists who learned to fly? Directed energy weapons? Bombs planted in the building? A nuke in the basement? A construction design flaw?

Was Massie outed by big donors buying media? Or by ballot stuffing? Or by voting machine fraud? Or by a change in public favor against Massie?

Was Covid a lab leak? Was it a bio weapon? Did it come from China? Or North Carolina? Or Africa? Was it real at all? Was the vaccine safe and effective? Or was the vaccine the weapon? Was the seasonal flu repurposed?

These are all examples of flooding. Every possible scenario needs to be promoted. So the public cannot ever reach accurate consensus on what happened. So the public cannot fix what happened, nor prevent it from happening again.

This process of flooding is the Zionist playbook. Any algorithm that implements it is following the Zionist playbook.

Immensely accurate prophetic timelines that are found in every church gathering place are likely the antidote to this problem. That won't happen for a long time.

Back to Flooding on X

So now think about the new X algorithms. Several changes have been made to X in order to "flood" readers with spurious content. It is no longer a place where the public who uses X can use that platform for "truth seeking." That function has been removed from the platform by creating a perfect Protocols of Zion system for flooding that media channel. (I would guess the recent Zionist buyouts of other platforms, like Tiktok, are also doing the same.)

By addition of automatic natural language translations, all X users from around the world can now speak to all other users. This is a neat AI trick. Like before the Tower of Babel, we can now all speak to each other, we share the same language. The whole world is now open to write posts for every other user in the world. We can all talk to each other.

But this means that, say native English speakers, who share politics, are now faced with posts from around the world from people who know nothing about the politics of the English speaking world. This is just 1 example of Protocols of Zion flooding on X.

Shifting to Entertainment

X has also been changed to track user interaction. It promotes posts which share content with posts where a user spent dwell time.

Let me give you a practical example. I am on X for news headlines and their commentary. This is at times horribly depressing. I am reading about the prelude to the end of the world, and I know it.

So I usually want to end my time on X with some emotional relief. So I end with non-news stories to reduce my stress. I like cat stories and videos, and these work to calm me down.

These have a format. Someone rescues a cat found in some distressing situation. They bring the cat back to health. Then they adopt the cat. Then the human and the cat live happily ever after. These are furry tail stories.

This can put me to sleep after a rough day of checking otherwise world-ending news. At least with cats there is some humanity in the world, unlike Gaza and Lebanon.

But if I really do fall asleep, my X page is open on cat posts. So the next day, all I see are more cat posts. Why?

Because I gave dwell time to cats. I don't follow any account that has anything to do with cats. That fact doesn't matter. The X system thinks I am there for cats. It wants me to keep interacting with cat content.

So X now promotes little to no actual headline news or commentary.

The Broader Result

Everyone using that platform goes through something similar. X wants to flood your feed with entertainment, not news. It does not want to give user dwell time to any serious matter of the day. It does not want to give dwell time to the accounts that you actually follow.

So I am no longer seeing posts where the public is forming consensus on the crimes of the day. Since Zionists cause nearly every headline these days, X has become a nearly perfect implementation of the Protocols of Zion. Even if the code for that algorithm is open sourced, it still does a fine job of preventing the public from reaching consensus on anything.

There have been quite a few other changes. X no longer has any algorithmic bias towards domain experts. Remember those? The people who figure out crimes? That class of domain expert users has been replaced by entertainers. So world experts on any topic are no longer able to find a following for their content. (Mike Adams, Lord Bebo, and many others have posted about how their readership numbers have seriously fallen. These are domain experts and Zionists are afraid of them.)

Cat videos are more important to X than skill. Elon himself is a world class domain expert. But his posts get promoted because on X he is an entertainer. His politics are just entertainment, not a crime scene investigation. He never touches anything serious. Given his situation in life this is probably wise. But, what is the point?

You will notice that my headline review links that I put at the bottom of these blogs are now more often coming from Telegram. On Telegram every post on every channel I follow shows up in my feed. Nothing is being hidden by a Zionist algorithm.

I do not follow cat channels on Telegram. So to me, there are no cat stories on Telegram. Once I finish scanning Telegram for news, I can return to X (or Youtube) to find cat videos before ending my day.

Presumably Telegram will eventually be taken over by Zionists too, Telegram won't remain this way forever. But, for now, Telegram is a much better platform than X.

Match Dates

This past week we were watching Thursday, 2026-05-28, for the replay of the year of Ahaziah's reign. This was the point of Jehu's wild ride when he did in Ahab's son, Jezebel and many others.

The trick to finding this headline is to remember that Jehu is a Latin form for Yahu. So we should be looking for Natan-yahu doing something like a wild ride. This ride seems to have happened in Tyre as part of the ongoing war in Lebanon.

Tyre Evacuation Zone

The Israelis have ordered the evacuation of the Tyre region in Lebanon. So the people who live in and near Tyre are fleeing north on their own wild ride. They are running from Jehu.

This, of course, is so Netanyahu's men can take over Lebanon as part of their greater Israel project. There have been rumors of Israel's plan to eventually attack all the way to Turkey. So there is ultimately nowhere for the people of Lebanon to run. This is another genocide.

So this is a headline match by name and time. This link includes the map of the evacuation zone. Many other posts are dealing with the sorry situation on the ground. I really need a cat video.

Follow Up On Massie

Last week I mentioned how Massie's loss of his seat in Congress was a match to the story of Naboth loosing his vineyard.

I had assigned that match just because it had interesting details from the Naboth story. At least in Massie's case, so far, he survived with his life. Massie has indicated he will run again in 2028 for his same seat. He is not going to run for President.

As a general rule, I have not been trying to track northern kingdom prophetic stories because they are very hard to time. There are problems in the text with crossing the calendars. So this work waits for audit.

This does not mean the northern kingdom timeline is not actually running.

So this week we see the end of Ahab and Jezebel as part of Jehu's wild ride. So Massie's story about a week ago is correctly timed to be our expected match to Naboth on the actual timeline. That was not just an accidental prophetic match, but a real and expected headline.

Jezebel will turn out to be one of the wealthy female donors to Trump and his crew. She will be the person who got Massie removed from his land, from his seat in congress. Ahab will turn out to be Trump, such a looser.

Hajj Delays

The Hajj itself is functioning like the story that begins on 2026-05-29, where young Joash was hidden in the temple for fear of Athaliah who was on a rampage. Think safety at church but on a grand scale. Links for this in the headline review section below.

Safety for visitors to Saudi Arabia should last about another week.

Putin Travel

Also on 2026-05-28 we saw Russia's president Putin on a trip. This is an almost regular trip. Links on this in the headline section below.

Watch Dates

Next week we are watching 2026-06-03 for the replay of the death of Athaliah. This was the evil queen that ruled while young future king Joash was hidden in the temple. This is the Wednesday after this blog goes out.

The following day, so 2026-06-04, Thursday after this blog goes out, is the start of the reign of Joash.

Temple Mount and Hajj venues in Saudi Arabia remain reasonable venues to watch at this point. If the USA and Israel have been waiting to resume war with Iran because of the Hajj, then these would be reasonable dates for that.

Headline Review

The following caught my attention this week.

Hajj Pilgrims

Estimated 1.5+ million

Vast Crowds

Stoning The Devil

The pilgrims in Saudi Arabia appear to have been the reason that Trump did not start attacking Iran. The links above give some sense of the massive crowds. This is the largest regular gathering of people on earth.

At Temple Mount (Video)

At Temple Mount (Pic)

Similar to the Hajj crowds, there were also massive crowds atop Temple Mount. So far, the Israelis are letting the crowds alone. The top is video which may not play outside of the Telegram app. The bottom is a pic of the same place.

Kiev In Flames

Big Smoke, Kiev

Missile Statistics

About May 22, 2026, saw the Russians retaliate against Kiev for a bombing of a school in Russia. The first link here is some of the damage to Kiev. The second is smoke rising the next morning.

The Russian public is now in support of the war against Ukraine. Most commentators expect the war pace to increase from this point forward. World War III is growing. Will the Nazis win on this second try?

12th Anniversary of Ukraine War

Most western Zionist media place the start of the war in Ukraine at 2022. The war actually started May 26, 2014. We just passed the 12th anniversary. The link here has reminder of the first shots of that war. The Ukrainian Air Force bombed civilian targets in Donetsk. This is matching sunrise on resurrection morning. ~15 years on our modern clock from that point to Noah+7000.

USA Tricks At UN

The United Nations is the international organization that goes with the USA. This is a Bible Tribes study point.

The USA, so the Zionists, play games to manipulate the UN in various ways. The most important is through visa control, preventing UN member delegations from entering the USA.

The link here is but a recent example. In this case the USA stopped a Palestinian from high UN office through visa threats. The UN should be moved to Iran. Noah's first colony.

Bankers Games

Against Iran

The top link here is to a post on Telegram, itself a clip from Tucker, that deals with how western bankers, so Zionists, intentionally work to keep most of the world poor. (I would add, it is the same for people who live in the USA.)

The second link is a post that details the specific goal of the bankers crashing the Iranian economy. These games are as old as Solomon, if not Pharaoh before.

Iran Downs USA Drone

Shooting Resumes

These links to posts on Telegram discuss the first resumed shooting between the USA and Iran. The USA was targeting Iranian positions. The Iranians retaliated, shooting down US drones. The Hajj appears to be limiting the actions of the USA.

Putin in Kazakhstan

Putin arrived in Kazakhstan on 2026-05-27 for a 3 day visit, so across the main watch dates for this week. Putin has been a Moses figure. Kazakhstan seems currently to be an uninteresting place. But this may be a lost tribe of Ishmael and may have a more interesting future.

Merkel: 10 Year War Plan

This link includes video of Germany's Merkel answering questions about the German war plan against Russia. She lets slip this is a war plan with ANOTHER 10 years. The Russians are fighting the German Nazis all over again.

At 12 years from now we reach the end of 430 years of Europeans at Jamestown, Virginia. This would be a dangerous time for the fall of the USA as a prophetic replay of the 430 years in Egypt.

So Merkel's timeline may not be all that messed up. The Russian's have good reason to threaten the EU with nukes. Presumably, the Russian government knows the plan Merkel is citing.

Hajj Schedule

The link here is to an article on Sonar 21 that gives the dates and events for the Hajj rituals this year. They complete on May 29, 2026. The crowd still needs to go home, which would take a few more days. This is lining up with the start of hiding in church. This is a reasonable match to the week to come.

Launch Pad Explosion

The night of May 28, 2026, there was an explosion on the Blue Origin launch pad in Florida. The link here is to a Scott Manley video with an initial report.

The energy release was equivalent to a nuclear weapon. Normally I would not reference an industrial accident as a candidate headline event, but this has all sorts of implications across the American space program, as Scott explains. It may take a year or more to rebuild. If anyone lives in the moon, they may not want guests playing golf on the surface.

More Later,

Modern Villain Vocabulary

Phil Stone — Fri, 22 May 2026 21:12:18 GMT

This blog looks at modern vocabulary for our standard list of 6 villains. Then we look at Putin's trip to China as the headline match this past week. We also look at watch dates for next week which include Jehu's wild ride. Also, shop work notes and a headline review.

Lawlessness

Since Trump's election the federal government looks to have been taken over by a crime family. Patterns of lawlessness can be seen with nearly everything Trump touches. But Trump is also well connected. He is but a node on a wider criminal network. Europe and the Middle East are also ruled by this same cartel. A few places, like Russia, Iran, China and Cuba sit outside of this same cartel, but even those countries must still fight the cartel in order to survive.

These patterns of criminal behavior are quite old. But, there has been a recent change in the public conversation about this ancient problem. The strange patterns of behavior seen in public figures are now gaining common vocabulary and are being discussed regularly on social media. These vocabulary words then give especially young people the anchor points they need to talk about the problems in the world.

The new patterns of public conversation are ultimately rooted in the nature of life on earth. These conversations are rooted in the scriptural patterns of Egypt. They are embodied in the life works of the 6 manuscript editors, our list of 6 villains.

In this blog I want to run the list of villains and map their stories to the key modern vocabulary that shows up in social media. My purpose is to make it easier to connect the stories in the text with active patterns in the political world.

Ultimately, nothing we see around us today is outside of the text. The only real problem is one of understanding the vocabulary.

#1 Solomon: Capitalism

Solomon was the first editor. Though he is not the first king at Jerusalem, he becomes the most famous, having built the first temple. Ahead of Solomon, there had been no grand public works projects. Then, in Solomon's day, there are 2 such projects, the Temple and the Palace.

What changed that Solomon could pull off such public building projects?

I am selecting "Capitalism" as a marker for Solomon because of 2 general ideas. The first is that kings require a capital as their seat of government. Until the heirs of Jacob asked for a king, they only had an annual meeting at the fields near Shechem. By Solomon's day, Jebus, so Jerusalem, had became established as the capital. This was the seat of the government and the king. This was the capital.

We use the same English language word for the type of economy we currently see in the USA. Capitalism in the financial sense of the word. Most Americans would conflate a free market with capitalism. The heirs of Jacob had a free market in goods that had run for around 500 years before Solomon. Something changed at Solomon. Money was now tied to the activity at a capital.

The text itself does not give any obvious modern key words for the financial change that started with Solomon. But, it does give a list of the financial effects of Solomon's rule. He had imported the ways of Egypt. Solomon was returning his nation to the ways of Egypt, even if he was not physically moving them back to Egypt. The details of his work to this end are found at 1 Kings 10:14-29.

What makes Solomon different is how he started taking "deposits" from the people. This word is mentioned in 1 Kings 10:25 in the BRB. We call deposit taking institutions "banks." Banks, at least traditionally, kept real money assets in a vault. Then they issue claim checks on the vault. Those claim checks can be traded, we now call those claim checks money.

Eventually, more claim checks are issued than there is wealth in the vault to cover all the claim checks. Then, eventually, the vault can be completely removed. This is the multi-step process to modern Capitalism. Solomon had done the same thing.

Empty Vault

This is a financial game that can be played as long as there are assets that can be added to the vault. That 1 Kings 10:25 passage lists many possible things that can be "financialized" or vaulted. That list includes "gold, silver, garments, armor, spices, horses, chariots, and mules."

Spices were not fuel in Solomon's day, but this is the term that would cover oil. "Horses, chariots and mules" would cover all the parts of the transportation industry. Today these are called motorcycles, cars and trucks.

Most of these are purchased and traded using debt. Claim checks outside of a vault are called "titles." These exist as functional equivalents of claim checks against a valuable asset in a vault. Titles themselves are often vaulted in lieu of the item itself.

With the banking system established, Solomon could use claim checks on his vaults in order to raise and pay for an army. The best example is in 1 Kings 5:13-18 where he has perhaps 150,000 laborers who build the Temple and Palace. These men work in shifts. These men are spread around geographically, including in Lebanon. They are building public works for Solomon. In times of war they would be used to fight external battles.

We see massive public works throughout all places with a capitalist financial system. Egypt is always the envy of outsiders. See all the great works? Why don't we have those in our country? The true cost of all of these things, of course, is debt slavery.

Trump's government just approved a similar levy, now called a draft, in order to eventually conscript an army to fight Russia.

Financial systems always need new assets, or their titles, going into the vault. Russia's assets are needed to keep the scheme running. China's assets will be needed too. Iran's assets will be needed as well. This is also why colonizing Mars is so important. Once all of earth's assets are under banker control, then comes Mars.

Capitalist systems are fundamentally unstable because the vault eventually goes empty. There is no more real wealth to settle all debts owed. In US history the current capitalist system began in 1913 when the European central banking family established the US Federal Reserve. This triggered the depression of the 1930s as most wealth had been taken from families in the inflation of the 1920s itself caused by the Federal Reserve Act of 1913.

A similar wave began in 1971 when the US Dollar lost convertability to gold. There was not enough gold in the vault to satisfy all foreign held claim checks. Oil was soon substituted. "Spices" as per the list above. The fight with Iran holds the threat of ending oil as the reserve asset for the USD, which is in part why Iran is such a mortal threat to the west.

#2 Ahab/Jezebel: Lawfare

Ahab and Jezebel are the next villains in our list of editors. Ahab is a northern king and he marries a foreign wife, Jezebel, who brings in Baal worship. (Baal is a word commonly translated as lord.) You can pick up their sorry story at 1 Kings 16:31.

This husband and wife pair has what seems like continuous trouble with true prophets of Joshua. Obadiah, a prophet in his own right, hides groups of prophets in caves. Elijah is found running for his life from these 2. The prophet Micah will eventually attempt to preserve Ahab's life, but is unsuccessful. In many ways Ahab and Jezebel are ultimately fighting against the question of what did god really say? Their life patterns are similar to Adam and Eve in the garden.

But the highlight of this story is the procedure that Ahab and Jezebel use to get Naboth killed. This story begins at 1 Kings 21. Ahab wants Naboth's land, but Naboth refuses to sell.

In previous blogs I have suggested this was the historical location for the vinegar, so the fuser, used for the ink for making copies of inspired scripture. Naboth had good reason for not wanting to let go of that land. It had 600+ years of important scroll making history.

Not only did Ahab and Jezebel not like the spoken words of prophets, they did not like the systems of writing that the prophets used to keep the inspired word of Joshua. They did not like even the source of the main ingredient in ink.

So once Naboth rejects Ahab's offer, Jezebel steps in. She sends a letter in Ahab's name to some secret group who have the power to put on a false trial. That group carries out Jezebel's orders and eventually they stone Naboth.

So who was the group that could answer Jezebel's letter?

The answer is given in the text. They share the same religion as Jezebel. They are the local "Baal worshipers."

What do we call those mostly secret Baal worshiping groups now? These are generally called Kabbalah based religions. The gentile version is called the Masonic Lodge, or just Lodge for short. There is also a Jewish version. Modern American Protestantism, especially certain denominations that spring from the colonial era, are thought to be heavily influenced by this system.

These groups control most of the machinery of the American government. This includes most branches of government, including and especially the courts. This also drives various professions that go along with government, like law and the military.

The story of Jezebel's use of a crooked court is marking how the court system is the most important place for exercising their secret type of public power and control. The legal system is also the ultimate party responsible for the more mundane aspects of modern government, like counting votes. It has been rightfully said, it doesn't matter who votes, but who counts the votes.

The mechanisms of modern lawfare are broad. Joshua himself ended up in such a system at the crucifixion. Many, many others have run into this across history. Ahab and Jezebel are an ultimate scriptural archetype.

#3 Nebuchadnezzar: Hegemony

The next editor in our list is Nebuchadnezzar. He shows up in the story near the end of the line of kings at Jerusalem. You can read it for yourself starting at 2 Kings 24. You can find more details of the inner workings of this villain in the Book of Daniel.

Nebuchadnezzar uses his army to first demand tribute from Jerusalem. After 3 years, that tribute is not paid. The problem? Nebuchadnezzar has a big army. He knows how to use it. He returns and eventually conquers the city and burns it down. He hauls nearly everyone away as slaves to Babylon.

Normally, the nation with the largest army will win a battle. Of course there are exceptions. Geography, skill and divine will sometimes upset the normal patterns. Given enough time, and enough skill, eventually some kingdom, and some army, should be expected to rule the entire world. World dominion is the ultimate goal.

The modern technical term for this pattern is called "Hegemony." It covers both the military patterns of conquest but also the process of getting local rulers to agree to be subject to the greater power. This is what Nebuchadnezzar was trying to setup when he first came to Jerusalem. He wanted the Jerusalem king to be part of the larger kingdom. Nebuchadnezzar was attempting to use his army as a threat.

The patterns of Nebuchadnezzar's hegemony continue all the way to this day. It is ultimately a long term series of fights to determine who rules the entire world.

Hegemony Examples

For current examples, Trump is the Hegemon, so Nebuchadnezzar, against Venezuela, Cuba and Greenland. He has threatened war against Canada. This is regional Hegemony. But the USA is itself a vassal of a larger and older Hegemon. Ultimately the current planetary Hegemon is the 8 or so Jewish families that control the central banking cartel. Catherine Austin Fits recently stated that group of families currently control over 90 percent of all of earth's wealth.

If you have a home mortgage, car loan, student debt or an unpaid credit card balance, then you are part of that 90 percent of earth that is controlled by these 8 families.

All wars against Russia, since Napoleon, have been attempts to bring Russia under this same Jewish family hegemony. Putin's actions are constrained by his Jewish oligarchs, but generally speaking Russia remains outside of that control.

The current war against Iran is yet another example. Iran's oil trade is sanctioned because it does not settle through Zionist banks. Iran's government does not have a Zionist puppet like Trump. The history in Iran for the past 120 or so years is best understood as attempts to bring Iran under Zionist Hegemony. Trump's decapitation strikes and Trump's current blockade are attempts similar to Nebuchadnezzar's war against ancient Jerusalem.

Iran appears to be the ultimate exception to the pattern of Jewish Planetary Hegemony. Revelation 9 appears to explain that exception.

Hegemony Goals

For background, the capstone stories for this world conquering goal start at Ezekiel 43. This is one of the dusty corners of the text. That chapter itself probably has an inspired vision of either the room where exhibits are kept or else a room in Eden. If this is an Eden vision, it matters once the tech exists for reaching Eden. Chemical rockets are probably not good enough.

Starting at Ezekiel 44 and running through the end of the book is a large passage that purports to describe the floor plan for a planetary capital. This is almost certainly an addition. Likely added by Ezra.

This is contradictory to the stories from Samuel's day. Joshua was already king. Asking for a king was a national sin. There has never been any particular reason for an earth based capital building. But, this story does drive the goal for world Hegemony.

The book of Daniel, starting at Daniel 2:34, spells out the end to the goal of building a kingdom over the earth. A stone will strike this statue, this vision, and undo it. The stone, of course, is symbolic of the inspired text. Somehow it prevents planetary Hegemony. Presumably Russia, China and Iran, which want a multi-polar world order, will ultimately get something along the lines of their thinking.

#4 Mordecai: Blackmail

The next editor is Mordecai. His story is the main topic in the Book of Esther. That book is all about Mordecai's successful attempts to pimp for the king and get Esther installed as queen.

This simple explanation also includes a bunch of palace intrigue. Much of Esther contains details about how that intrigue worked in Esther's day. This included palace banquets and the rivalries between various powerful families.

Ultimately, the king ends up going along with the desires of Mordecai. In that example there is less threat than we see in the Epstein files. Presumably certain clients enjoy going along with the crime. It looks like Trump might fall into that category.

The purpose, of course, is to provide wealth and power to the Jews. As I have explained in previous blogs, these are Jebusites who replace Benjamin. Benjamin ends up outside of the tribal promises.

Esther is also a story that creates holidays that are NOT part of the inspired set. Presumably all secular holidays come from this same tradition. The 4th of July holiday in the USA is said to have been selected for Masonic reasons. The founding documents of the USA were not officially signed until later in 1776.

The 2 holidays called out in Esther are not the final 2 inspired holidays. Note the text really wants 1 holiday per tribe, so 12 such holidays across a calendar year. There are 10 earlier holidays. The remaining 2 holidays come from the New Testament. Joshua's birth and crucifixion give rise to the final inspired 2 holidays.

Today, we know the Mordecai process of gaining and keeping power as the work of the Epstein Class. We have only had this vocabulary word for a few years. The general public is only now accepting this pattern of control as being real. The same patterns of sexual blackmail from the text still run in the world today. Nothing has changed.

#5 Ezra: State Religions

Ezra is commissioned by Cyrus the king in order to setup the priestly system at a rebuilt temple in Jerusalem. Ezra's commissioning letter is given starting at Ezra 7:11.

It is very important to note that no such system was needed for around 1000 years between the Exodus and Ezra. This was not needed across the time of Judges. It was not needed by the community of prophets who survived during the time of the kings. The system that Moses had set up, called David's fallen tent in Amos and Acts 15, was better than Ezra.

Ezra was only needed because the king needed a state religion. Truth was now to be imposed. Truth was no longer self evident. This was the last of the Old Testament editors. He was imposing a false text on an unsuspecting public.

State religions have continued since Ezra's day. They provide some level of national cohesion. A state religion allows the public to reason about spiritual issues in some sort of consistent way. This problem exists because the inspired text is not currently known.

Though there are many different state religions around the world, the most common follows as natural heirs to Ezra himself.

The hegemonic governments of the western world all follow some variation on the system setup by Ezra. This would include all the secret and twisted stuff of Solomon, Jezebel, Nebuchadnezzar and Mordecai. It even reaches into modern Christianity.

I recently read about how Thomas Jefferson rejected Christianity as a state religion in the USA. He wanted a stronger, elite, religion that would be shared by members of the Federal Government. He got his desire. We know it as Masonry, the gentile version of a Kabbalah based religion. This is why members of government do not listen to Christian arguments from the public. They have a certain conceit against those who are not in the club.

#6 Ananias: Narrative Formation

The final editor on this list is Ananias. This editor goes off and twists the New Testament narrative. He does this mostly by story duplication while at the same time adjusting various details. This process forms a contradictory narrative. This process forms a narrative which seems to follow the edited Old Testament. It obscures otherwise obvious truths.

The common technical term for Ananias' work appears to be "Narrative Formation." This process works everywhere in the modern world. It takes a given set of facts and twists them around for whatever the day's political purposes might be. It is a process of hiding profound truths that are then intentionally hidden from the public.

This same process is used to cover over criminal behavior by people in power. Ananias was covering the crimes committed against Joshua by other members of Ananias' own family.

Trump himself has many mental faults, but he is particularly good at narrative formation. He is always spinning up what he is saying in order to create a narrative that will distract key details from public understanding.

The modern heirs of Ananias are the main stream media figure heads and well paid social media influencers. Each take basic facts and twist them to their otherwise hidden agenda.

How Long?

This list matches the 6 manuscript villains to 6 areas of power in our modern world. The modern heirs of these villains still run wild in the world.

When will Joshua raise up and end this system of villains?

There are perhaps another few years before the worst of this is over. Each villain appears to have hints about their downfall.

In Solomon's case, David's fallen tent needs to be restored. (Amos 9:11)

Jezebel's case, her time to repent must come to an end. (Revelation 2:18)

In Nebuchadnezzar's case, the stone must strike the great statue. (Daniel 2)

In Mordecai's case, Purim must be reversed. (Esther 9).

In Ezra's case, his temple must fall. (Matthew 24:2)

In Ananias' case, teachers of the inspired gospel must arise. (Mark 6:7)

Match Dates

This week we were watching for the replay of the year of Jehoshaphat's reign on Monday, 2026-05-18 and then the first year of Jehoram's reign on the following day, 2026-05-19.

The most significant headlines appeared to come from Russia's president Putin's visit to China and a summit with Chinese president Xi. This had followed Trump's previous visit to China. But this Putin/Xi summit was on the prophetic date and much more substantive in terms of their engagement and agreements.

Putin Arrives China

Joint Statement

The top link is to an arrival photo establishing the date. Near the end of the summit, Putin and Xi issued a joint statement. The second link here provides a list of points from that joint statement. I have assigned numbers according to the order in the second link and then bunch them into topics in a list below.

These 2 leaders, perhaps more than any others, are the bulwark against the Hegemony of Zionism that has been building since the days of Solomon. Iran is on their side too, but Iran is more isolated than Russia and China.

We are probably looking at the general fault lines for World War III. Russia, China and Iran on one side, the Zionist west on the other.

Putin and Xi are viewing the world from the perspective of the time BEFORE the heirs of Jacob asked for a king. The Zionists appear to be in more trouble before Joshua than Russia and China. Iran seems to have its own favor from Joshua for some future events.

You scan see in the points below how they are working against world Hegemony. They view the alternative as "multi-polarity." The tribes after Moses' time were a multi-polar community. In some sense the world is about to "leave Egypt" and when that happens, the tribal patterns of Moses come back into play.

Points Against Zionism

1) Warned against a return to the “law of the jungle” in global affairs.

2) Stated that there are no “first-class” countries or nations and that hegemony in any form is unacceptable.

3) Opposed forcing sovereign states to abandon neutrality.

4) Stated that all sovereign states have an equal right to security.

6) Are against using human rights as a pretext for interference in the internal affairs of states.

7) Expressed concern over the militarization policies of the United States and its allies.

8) Opposed actions violating the UN Charter in Latin America and the Caribbean.

17) Opposed a return to a world order governed solely by force and defended the authority of the United Nations in international affairs.

16) Expressed concern over confrontational rhetoric from certain countries and called for an end to interference in internal affairs.

19) Described attempts by “certain states” to restrict maritime shipping as a threat to global trade.

20) Are against unilateral sanctions and the discriminatory use of tariffs.

21) Called immunity for heads of state from criminal prosecution a guarantee of stable international relations.

22) Opposed any unilateral sanctions not approved by the UN Security Council.

23) Condemned initiatives involving the blocking, seizure, or confiscation of assets and property belonging to foreign states.

Points On Ukraine

5) Believe it is necessary to address the root causes of the Ukrainian crisis.

Points On Iran/Israel

10) Supported Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity while urging the new government to combat terrorism.

11) Stated that US and Israeli strikes on Iran are illegal and undermine stability in the Middle East.

Points On Other Countries

9) Supported Africa’s independence and sovereign development.

12) Are against pressure on North Korea.

14) Described Japan’s accelerated remilitarization course as a threat to peace.

15) Stated that NATO’s presence in the Asia-Pacific region is incompatible with strengthening peace.

Points On Technology

13) Will ensure interoperability between the GLONASS and BeiDou navigation systems.

18) Will deepen cooperation in thermonuclear fusion and fast-neutron reactor technologies.

Notes On Iran

This past week the Iran war remained in a cease fire. There were rumors that there was negotiations going on. Iran did not appear to be standing down on their demands to end the conflict.

Various reasons have been given for why Trump has not restarted. Perhaps the most reasonable was a request by Saudi Arabia to wait until the annual Hajj is over. The Saudis are hosting perhaps 2,000,000 guests. They want the war to remain suspended until those guests are safely out of the country.

Watch Dates

Our next watch date is Tuesday, 2026-05-27, the replay of the last year of Jehoram's reign. This will begin one of the strangest times in the reigns of the kings.

The following day, Wednesday, 2026-05-28, is the replay of the year of Ahaziah's reign. This king was killed by Jehu who had gone on a killing spree. Jehu killed the kings from both the northern and southern kingdoms, including Jezebel, Ahab's family and Ahaziah's relatives in the south.

The next day, so for us Thursday, 2026-05-29, is the replay of the start of Athaliah's reign. She was an evil queen who reigned for 6 years. So for us, her reign will end on Wednesday 2026-06-03. During her reign the future king, Josiah was kept in hiding in the temple.

Previous Headlines

Note this series of stories replayed in April of 2002. The main headline was a siege at the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem. The IDF was chasing Palestinians who took refuge in the church. Think trapped like the young Joash. That church would remain under siege by the IDF from April 2 until May 10, 2002. So that prophetic replay ran longer than the simple expected 6 day story.

Also curious to note from the 2002 replay, the Queen Mother (in the UK) was buried at the replay of the end of evil queen Athaliah's reign.

Note that we are approaching a temple rebuilding story from 2 Kings 12:6 that replayed in 2002 near the end of the Bethlehem church siege. (That church needed attention, it had been shot up.) This time around we are more interested in temple mount as a possible venue for these stories.

Siege of the Church of the Nativity

The link here is to the Wikipedia article that details the events surrounding that 2002 siege. The IDF had occupied Bethlehem. Some Palestinians fled into the church. That article contains the day-by-day details. Note how the IDF are the villains. The Palestinians are the good Joash.

Shop Work

This week Ryan and I were both working on our laptops. Ryan was booting up new hardware with PopOS 24.04 and copying files over from his old machine.

I also took the plunge and updated my laptop to PopOS 24.04. This was quicker because I did an in place update to a system that was already mostly setup and running.

Reinstalling apps is always a good time to survey the state of our projects. Ryan has been fixing up a bunch of issues across our various projects. He has been reorganizing our git code repositories. Basically a spring cleaning that we usually do every 2 years, but skipped 2 years ago.

Ryan found a bunch of issues that he fixed while working through our list of projects. The biggest fix is to the app names used on install.

Default App Names

As Ryan's setup was completely new, he went through and did a rebuild for all of our apps and websites. Several of them had issues related to the installed name of the apps.

By default, most browsers take the title of the front page of the app as the name for the app itself when installed. That behavior makes sense for websites with a home page of some sort. In some our our apps, that default behavior leads to strange installed app names like "Front Page." Those strange cases have been fixed.

Style System

We began building web apps many years ago when the style system used on web pages was pretty primitive. At that time we starting using a tool called SASS for managing style sheets. This system builds the style sheets used to drive the user interface in all of our apps and websites.

Perhaps the main feature of SASS is the ability to break down the style system into a bunch of smaller files. This allows styling by composing the styles kept in separate files for various parts of the app.

So we are now seeing the current version of SASS throwing a warning. That main feature is now getting a deprecation warning. This means they intend to remove that most fundamental of all features. (Whomever is behind that app is brain dead. Like taking the ++ operator out of C++.)

Since it still runs, this is not a critical bug, but it will stop working at some point in the future. As CSS itself has substantially improved, I took a to-do to adjust our current build environment to handle that CSS file bundling process directly. We already do nearly the same thing with HTML.

Story Grid App

This week Ryan has also gone through the Story Grid app and removed a bunch of old styling related files that worked against old versions of that app. Before the current grid was worked out there was a series of other table forms. Those other table forms had various styling needs. Those files have been removed, so the app only contains the files needed for our current understanding of the story grid. The major version number was also adjusted this week.

Paleo Bible Work

My other task this week was to work on software for the Paleo Bible app. This week was mostly back end work. The process itself takes texts that start as Aramaic which then go through a series of conversion steps to become audited Paleo.

I have been experimenting with file formats and the conversion steps needed to move from the inbound files to the forms which will be seen in a new Paleo Bible app.

Last week I was looking at formats that are based around long single lists of words. This format gets rid of the irregular structures implied by modern chapter and verse breaks. The texts never had that addressing system when they were written. They are modern additions.

As the audit code is eventually looking at the text as a long string of words, it makes sense to switch to an internal format that is just a list of words.

I can now see, from several examples, that this format makes movement through those lists very, very easy to code. This format also makes each step in the conversion process much more easy to inspect and audit.

This week I adjusted the way those files carry around address information. Modern address data is needed for putting each word from those word lists back into a formatted shell ready for use in the Paleo Bible app itself. So I cannot drop address data entirely. The trick is where to keep it.

A week ago I was looking at parallel address data as an "out of band" problem. The address data was carried in a different structure than the list of words. But one step in the pipeline expands the list of words. That expansion needs to be reflected in the address data. This creates a book keeping problem.

This week the code was rewritten to carry the address along with the words themselves. This eliminates any chance of the word list and address list going out of sync. It also allows an immediate human debugging connection back into the word address system of the full manuscripts.

Adjusting The Address System, Again

I also worked through the conceptual problem of word fragments. The inbound files have whole Aramaic words. These get broken down into smaller parts. This happens in an early conversion step which creates even more lists of words.

For an example, an inbound Aramaic word, say Du-Wa-Ba-Re-Fe-Mo is ultimately 2 words. Du, then Wa-Ba-Re-Fe-Mo. There is an issue of punctuation after the Du. There is an audit issue at the sentence level about if Du belongs. Then there is the name Abraham which has its own audit punctuation issues. Each word has different English interlinear data. Each word goes to a different place in the lexicon.

The word address markup in the app will mark the whole original historical inbound words. But internally, it needs yet another layer down in terms of word addressing. This ultimately leads to a 6 level address system for any given word.

So a full cite is something formatted like Genesis 2:3d~5e. This means the 1) The book of Genesis, 2) chapter 2, 3) verse 3, 4) subverse d, 5) word 5, 6) word fragment e. Internally, the short hand is 1.2.3.4.5.6.

In reviewing this, Ryan commented that the letter within the word naturally falls as an additional 7th level of address. Curious.

As inbound historical words get broken up, the address system also changes. This change keeps the inbound address but gains more precision for use in the output side of the conversion pipeline.

Tricky stuff, but progress is happening nearly every day. More later.

Headline Review

Massie's loss of his seat in Congress is what triggered the subject for this week's blog. As I was reading about that election, I kept wondering, what system of Zionist behavior was used against him?

Let me start this headline review by looking at the Massie election and what scripture informs what was going on.

Massie in 2028?

Problem of Turnout and Percentages

Mike Adams on Massie

The top link is to a post on Telegram with a clip of the crowds chanting for a Massie run for President in 2028. The second link highlights problems with turnout and vote percentages. The third post is a comment by Mike Adams that there is no way to vote out of this problem. Many similar posts like these were all over social media at the start of the week.

Massie was calling for the release of the Epstein files, so he was exposing the patterns of #5, Mordecai. But, Massie himself was more like a victim of a theoretical Mordecai, which is of course the world of palace intrigue. So there is some sense of a match to #5. In Esther, as passed by history, Mordecai's opponent appears to be evil. That does not appear to be the pattern here.

But, someone still wanted Massie out of Congress. (Or worse. That "someone" may not be done with Massie. There may be more trouble coming for him.) So, this case is more like villain #2, Ahab/Jezebel. The voting system is a legal system, so it is like a court. This is a broader sense of the story of Naboth.

But just how Massie was removed is also not clear. Some say his seat was bought by Jewish money. This version of the story is told in the sense of buying media in Kentucky. But, there were apparently more ballots cast than registered voters. So turnout for this primary was over 100 percent. This is not a national, money, media, issue, but a local ballot stuffing, voting machine, fraud issue.

So was this election lost because someone like Jezebel, in Ahab's authority, sent a letter to Kentucky to have Massie removed? Did they take his vineyard? Just like Naboth? Looks like it. Yes.

There was also Narrative Formation going on around this case. So #6, Ananias. The media narrative was that money had purchased Massie's seat. This story draws the public's attention away from the real crime. This is just like Ananias' editing of the New Testament. We have been told 1 story, when something else was really going on.

The Narrative Formation side of this story has only been picked up by a few commentators. Mike Adams' post above is an example. If the problem is not purchasing media, but messing with voting procedures then Trump and his team control the voting machinery across the USA. He has no risk of trouble, either in the fall elections later this year, nor in 2028.

So nothing Trump does against Iran will impact the results of upcoming elections. No amount of inflation or oil shortages that he may cause will have any impact on elections either. No amount of criminal behavior will cause the voting public to remove him or his people.

Large Blast In Israel

Better Video

Saturday, May 16, 2026, saw a very large blast at a weapons factory west of Jerusalem in Israel. This may have contributed to delays in strikes against Iran. This was likely a materials handling accident that ignited either bombs or rocket motors made and/or stored at that location. The blast was so large many wondered if we were looking at a suitcase nuke level blast. This was late on the Jewish Sabbath. Workers there may have been preparing weapons for use against Iran. They would normally have no reason to be doing anything at this time of the week.

Strike in UAE

UAE MOD Statement

On Sunday, May 17, 2026, there was a strike by a drone on part of the equipment at a nuclear plant in the UAE. It was immediately called out as from the west, so not from Iran. Later it was said to be from Iraq. Headlines like this do not fit established narratives. It suggests a false flag intended to blame Iran. Links above carry some details.

1500 Drones to Moscow

The pace of the Zionist war against Russia is also increasing. This Military Summary video on Youtube gives some numbers. There have been many warnings from various Russians that NATO is behind these attacks. These warnings also warn this eventually leads to a nuclear retaliation against targets in central and western Europe.

Naphtali Bennett

This is a link to a post on Telegram that shows betting markets suggesting Naphtali Bennett might win in an election against Netanyahu. This is a possible replacement for Netanyahu. Note the pharaoh look.

Athens Ankara Flashpoint

Greece Turkey

Legal Details

The Paisios prophetic warnings about war between Greece and Turkey said we should watch for disputes over the territorial boundaries in the water.

The top link here is to a long article on RT with many of the details. The next link is to an article on The Cradle summarizing recent trouble out of Turkey on this point.

In history, the Turks took Greek territory, but not the Greek islands. So they never conquered territory at sea. Now they are looking for more. The third link has a sea map with more of the legal details.

Paisios' prophetic expects Haggai Sophia to be returned to Greece, but only after Russia's help.

Plague of Gnats

This link is to a post by Alex Jones on X detailing ticks and mosquitoes released in the USA are part of a Gates funded bio weapons program. This is a nearly perfect match to a plague of gnats. Unclear if this is good prophetic timing. Reports like this have been on social media for weeks.

Solar Factories

This link is to a Youtube video by the Electric Viking. He is detailing the scale of the Tesla and SpaceX factories that are being built for making solar panels. Huge. Musk gets the end of fossil fuels. He also needs solar for space based AI.

Trump and sons exempt Forever

Trump Exempt Forever

Trump and his sons have been granted permanent immunity from audits by the IRS. This looks to me as planned. This may be why he was even litigated in the first place. The link here is for the record. The USA now has a royal family.

More Later,

In last week's blog I introduced a new set of pop ups which deal with alternative reading orders for stories along the rows and columns of this app. These alternative story reading orders are following the Vine and River pairing systems of the alphabet itself. Sabbath Reads, which has its own app, are alternatives that read down through the columns.

As a theoretical concept, these alternative reading orders appear to be how the inspired text does not need tooling like we see in modern Study Bibles. Alternative reads bring stories together in ways that naturally provide interpretive context without the need for an expert to force some interpretation.

Diagonal Reads

So what has been added to the Story Grid app this week are a series of pop ups that provide alternative story reading orders that work along the diagonals of the overall Story Grid itself.

Because of the way the Story Grid app is constructed, these alternative reads appear within the new set of pop ups that I introduced last week. So what is happening this week is an expansion of the set of alternative reads. This time, the new reads are along the diagonals of the Story Grid itself.

These new diagonal reads are the most speculative set of otherwise rigorous reading orders that are possible given the basic geometry of the main grid itself. These have been added in order to study how useful diagonal reads might be. Remember, of course, that as of this week the entire grid itself has not yet been fully determined. So this is an ongoing study.

The purpose of diagonal reads is to take lists of stories that are found along the diagonals as found in the Story Grid app. Negative Diagonals go down when moving to the right across the table. Positive diagonals go up when moving to the right across the table.

The 2 most interesting diagonals are the center diagonals. The center negative diagonal moves from the top left to the bottom right. The center positive diagonal moves from the bottom left to the top right. Neither of these diagonals has any wrapping.

Once off the center diagonals, the other diagonals all wrap the table in some way. Conceptually, these diagonal wraps are done as though the Story Grid was rolled. You can study the story numbers in the various reading order lists in the app to see the specifics.

Finding the Diagonal Data

Ryan went through several rounds of experiments this past week in order to find a nice place to put the launch buttons for finding diagonal read data.

In the end, the links to this function are tucked into the Column and Row reading order pop ups already in the app. The pop ups along the top header now include a link for opening negative diagonal related data. The pop ups in the left headers now include links for the positive diagonal related data.

I would recommend playing with the app to see how this works.

Ryan is perhaps the most important user of these various alternative reads. He is using these to help establish the correct set of inspired stories and their correct placement. The center of the Story Grid is perhaps the most difficult area to solve because it is less constrained than the edges.

History

This app has been undergoing changes in the shape of the grid for many years. Originally, we had no idea how many stories there might be, nor what the arrangement of stories might be. While we were working out what the shape might be, that app included alternative grid layouts in order to study the question better.

About a year and a half ago we settled on the 25x25 grid size that you see now in that app. This overall size is remarkably compelling because it causes the alphabet to inform the total number of stories. It allows 3d related design features of the alphabet to inform what is going on across the table. This informs both rows and columns of the table, which is very nice.

At this point we are attempting to find all the ways this story grid might be useful to readers of the inspired text. Alternative reading orders along the major axis of this table appear to be quite useful.

Use of the new diagonal reading orders will ultimately determine if these are also useful to readers of the Testimony. It will become more clear once the final story placement is settled.

Paleo Bible Work

This past week I finally started turning my attention to the manuscript side of the upcoming Paleo Bible app. I am still not sure when this will go live. The basic recovery work flow still needs to be worked out in detail. That work flow is where my attention is currently focused. For the record, I want to share some of what I am learning.

Let me start by saying this is a problem that has been in front of us for a long time. I have started down various parts of the recovery work several times over the past 17 years. This week I have been reviewing our vault of old git projects in order to understand failed attempts at various parts of this problem.

Perhaps the first step we ever took at recovery was working out the Paleo Keyboard layout and related configuration files that we use whenever we need to type Paleo letters. A week ago, when setting up that keyboard on our new PopOS 24.04, I noted those files are dated from 2009. So this has been a long term project.

There are various phases to the recovery work. Let me list those here. Some of these have been tried various times. Some are new.

Inbound Manuscripts

The world of Bible manuscripts is a haphazard mess. Ultimately the texts that matter to us were published in the 1800s. Bible manuscripts must be found and converted into a format that we can use. The NT and OT texts are usually in different sources and normally not in the same file formats.

So we don't go crazy, we have our own custom file format for Bible manuscripts.

At some point years ago we found 1 particular downloadable Bible with a very dense style of markup that we particularly liked. We redefined that format for our own use, but are still keeping the general dense markup approach.

We occasionally add new markup to track new needs from Ryan's ongoing work. Our build environment is now highly configurable and generally knows how to convert that format to HTML for use on web pages. Most new markup just needs HTML fragments added into a specific configuration file in order to know what HTML to use for any given new Bible markup feature.

All of our inbound Bible related files start with conversion into this format. Texts which need advanced formatting features, like the BRB, can then be edited as needed. All of this inbound conversion work is essentially done. We only drop to the format conversion level when we find a new manuscript.

That file format has suited us well for many years. But, this week, I finally gave up on that format for audit work. I have started experimenting with an alternative.

Audit and recovery work needs to view the inbound text as a simple list of words. That is all. Chapter and word breaks as found in all conventional markup just gets in the way. Let me explain.

Tool Chain

Our inbound files are still in our conventional format. Our outbound files must also be in that format. This format gives us access to a huge range of formatting features that are possible in the future Paleo Bible app itself.

But, between the inbound text and the outbound text we need a simple word list format that is easy for code to scan and change as needed through the various steps in the recovery process.

Rethinking File Formats

For a long time I have only used Javascript as a programming language and .json files for data storage. Our apps run in web browsers and this is the natural language for that environment. Our new build environment is in that same language, running on nodejs for those who may care. Passing data around the build steps is easy. Passing data from the build environment to the runtime is also very easy.

In some of the tooling I recently rebuilt for Ryan I started using .json equivalent .js files. This is basically a commented and editable form of .json data but stored in a .js file. Code using these files sees the inbound file as though it were .json data. Since it is a .js file, it is easily handled by text editors which handle syntax highlighting.

Importantly, .js files support comments. So the raw data can be decorated with whatever is needed for human inspection and when needed, human editing. .js files also generate useful error messages if they are human edited and a mistake is made.

These files are also easily saved under revision control, which is good. This general format is basically a simple hierarchical data base file format. This is without the cruft and intellectual overhead of an actual database manager, which is also very nice.

These files are capable of containing code. But, as a convention, we don't put code into these special files. For reference, The Story Grid app's map of stories is built around this format. Ryan regularly uses tools in his text editor to change the layout of the story grid itself. This is not hard. It is easy to understand. Though Ryan is editing .js files, he does not need to know how to code.

Bible Books Into Javascript

So I did some tests this week on extracting raw word lists for those 92 books into this strange .json equivalent .js file format. This converts the Bible text with complex chapter/verse/word addressing into a single long word list. This is the format needed for creating an English interlinear then for audit and then for recovery.

This format is fully commented with address data, so a human can open the file and know exactly where in the Bible any given word is actually located. But, as far a software is concerned, this starts as a simple long list of words.

This format saves all addressing in a separate place in order to know how to restore those word lists back into the highly formatted version for display in the Paleo Bible app at the end of the audit process.

But what matters most, what I saw this week, is how easy it is to load and use Paleo word lists in this format. With only 1 simple load, running at the parser speed of nodejs, the entire Bible becomes immediately available in memory. This is as word lists, ready for whatever task may then be needed.

The final step in this new tool chain is to insert the corrected word lists back into the files that are formatted with all the markup used for presenting Bibles on screen in the apps. The final Paleo Bible app is then technically able to display the same rich coloring and annotation as found in the BRB.

In playing with files in this format this week I saw more changes that are needed. The system needs to track sub-words in order for inbound Paleo words to become more than 1 word on the outbound side. There is an another question about tracking punctuation as a type of sub-word. More testing is needed for this.

I still need to write the code that inserts these word lists back into the outbound files. This does not look all that hard to do. More on this in future blogs.

With simple word lists available for quick loading, it was also possible to play with that format. I wrote some simple apps that can summarize the inbound word lists themselves. Here are some of the data I found this week.

Manuscript Stats

We have a 92 book canon that forms the base text for the Paleo Bible. These books include the 66 books of the standard Protestant canon. Then we add many more books. Basically everything we could find in Aramaic that was included in someone's Bible. It also had to be printed in the 1800s and must now be out of copyright.

This working canon includes Intertestamental works, Additions to Daniel, the Maccabean Revolt, more for Ezra, Manasseh and Psalms. Finally there are a group of books from Early Christianity.

This is the largest set of books we have looked at in terms of recovery. For most of these books we have at least one English to Aramaic interlinear. So we have the resources we need to figure out the English translation for most of the vocabulary words used in the text as passed by history.

So here are some basic stats. Across those 92 books are 536,014 individual inbound Paleo words. I am using a Layer 3 definition, so units of Aramaic grammar. Out of this inbound string of words are 50,907 unique words. These 50,907 words are the inbound data for the lexicon related tooling I am currently planning.

For comparison, a full KJV bible has a little under 15,000 unique words. Of course our canon is a little bigger, so this is not a perfect comparison. But this difference between 15K words in KJV vs. 51K in raw Paleo is mostly the grammatical grouping in Aramaic as compared to English.

We know from the Shepherd's staff work that prefix letters in perfect Paleo always become stand alone single letter words. So this 51K count of unique words will go way down once we have worked out the Lexicon data.

Planning

I have been reviewing the code from past attempts at cracking this riddle to see what, if anything, I could salvage. All I really learned from this review is what not to try again.

It is clear that in past attempts I was mostly worried about getting this problem solved quickly. This was because for years we were running out of money, so time mattered. But "quickly" is not a way to also learn a recovered language. Working quickly is sometimes called the "tyranny of the urgent." It is a trap.

Now that we ran out of money, we find we are still here. Still working. So running out of money didn't really matter.

So now, we are most interested in getting the recovery problem solved as ACCURATELY as possible. We don't really care how long it takes. Ultimately, we still want to be as efficient as possible. If we can stay efficient, then the time it takes is not a real concern.

So, I am being slow when thinking about this code to make sure I have a good recovery plan.

Magic Stats

To crack each of those 536,014 inbound words requires an entry in a lexicon. That lexicon needs to explain what to do with each of 50,907 unique words.

I ran another stat. There are 1379 unique words that occur at least 50 times in the inbound text. Of those, Mo-Ne, the standalone word for "from," is the most common. Mo-Ne has 11,521 copies in the inbound manuscript. Next up is Oo-Lu. This is Paleo for "on" or "upon." This word has 6,234 copies in the inbound manuscript. See the magic?

If we started by loading a new lexicon with those 1379 most common unique words, then the Lexicon could explain what to do with 332,901 of the words from that inbound stream of 536,901 words.

For 1379/50,907 or 2.7% of the work, the lexicon will cover 332,901/536,014 = 62.1% of the inbound text. Magic indeed. I have never been this clever before.

More Magic

Looking more carefully at this problem I could see a few other things going on. Let me start with Abraham. 146 times it is just the stand alone name. Wa-Ba-Re-Fe-Mo, as we expect. 71 times it is a Du then Abraham. So in English usually "of Abraham." 67 times it is Lu then Abraham. So "to Abraham" in English. The other forms are "In Abraham," "And Abraham," "And To Abraham" and then a strange case from the Prayer of Manasseh 8:2 where we find "Who To Abraham."

So 3 of these Abraham entries are over 50 times. So these would be caught in our net for hitting all words which occur above 50 times.

But by adding all 7 entries for Abraham into the lexicon at the same time, we would fully handle all occurrences of Abraham. Not hard. A text editor with reasonable file formats makes this quick and easy.

Let me take the name Joshua. This name has 15 different forms in the inbound string of words. So by hitting 15 entries, the name Joshua is covered across the entire manuscript. 1033 times we find stand alone Joshua. 140 times we find "Of Joshua." 116 times we find "To Joshua." 41 times "In Joshua." 37 times "And Joshua." 14 times "Who In Joshua." (These start at Romans 8:2 and may be in a question.) The other entries are minor, but still very easy to enter into a lexicon using a text editor.

In a few of those forms the name Joshua is buried as part of a more complex name. Joshua is buried in "Abishua" in 1 Chronicles 4-5. (This is a contraction of Father and Joshua. Chronicles is not likely inspired.)

Joshua is also buried in "Melchi Shua." See 1 Samuel 14:49 and 1 Samuel 21:2 for examples. This comes in as a single word, without a word break. So the English translation is hiding how that name is a contraction of "King" and "Joshua."

If Ryan and/or I were actually working these problems, this strange word would cause a stop for conversation.

Should the interlinear in the Paleo Bible read this as the contraction "King-Joshua" in English? Anyone who could read the Paleo would easily see this name as spelled exactly this way. Should we let English readers see it this way too?

There is much work ahead which is full of discovery and trouble. We are about to see through centuries of fraud by scribes who were trying to hide details of the text from generations of readers. They wanted a secret keeping priesthood. They did not want real readers.

Whatever the correct handling of these other forms of "Joshua" might be, our lexicon can be easily updated later if we had a better understanding of how to handle the specific details of each case. We are setting up for an iterative process that gets better with time.

In any case, with 1 quick edit, easy to add into the Lexicon, all of the references to Joshua throughout the inbound text are covered. 1404 inbound words are handled. About 1/2 million still to go.

Shifting Strategy: Problems In The Past

In the past I thought the entire list of unique words needed to be handled like I've described above. As I dove into these lists I got bogged down. I thought I had a technical, tooling related problem. So I changed the tooling, changed file formats, started new projects and tried again.

Looking back on this problem now, I can see I always ground to a halt because the language gets complicated and needs attention from the perspective of the actual words used in actual sentences.

This is especially so with vocabulary words which are rare across the text which then also show up with rare patterns of grammar. For many words it is almost impossible to figure out what to do without also looking at the word in a sentence which is mostly already solved.

Human readers of historical Aramaic must have certain skill in this area that they learned when they were learning to read. Some how, we must move through that same learning process in order to solve this general problem of finding the inspired text.

So this word list view of the problem is not the right way to think about this problem, especially all the way to the bottom. It only comfortably reaches about 60% coverage, as I explained above.

After this 60% level of coverage, the strategy needs to shift. After all the common, often small, words are entered, then the problem shifts to passages and finding the correct spelling of words. So far, we still don't know how to correctly spell anything. All we have done so far is split off grammar.

Shifting Strategy: Solving Passages

Correct outbound word spellings, which is also a function of the lexicon, cannot be known until after words pass audit. Taken alone, many words with added vowels still pass audit, even if added vowels are not inspired. The correct and inspired spelling must be proven by testing of words done inside longer inspired passages.

So once the lexicon has been primed with the very common inbound words, the strategy needs to shift. The next goal is to start getting all the words in certain passages entered into the Lexicon. This allows the audit code to start working on determining inspired spelling and inspired grammar.

Not all passages are created equal. Some parts of the text are better for solving this problem. These are the same passages that now look to be the intended places where young students learn to read.

These natural starting places are Proverbs and Psalms. These appear intended as places for learning the language. These have simple uses of grammar. They have simple vocabulary words. These places look ideal to start attempting sentence level, or story level, audit and recovery. By starting here, we go through the same language learning process for Paleo as native historical Aramaic speakers went through when they learned to read.

So the lexicon loading process shifts from common words, to the words found in Proverbs and Psalms. As all the words from those stories get filled in, the automated audit process can then start to work against long strings of words.

Some inspired sentences in Proverbs and Psalms should now start to pass audit. So the words in those sentences now have known good spelling. Those passages now show inspired grammar.

Reaching Break In

At this point, we reach "break in." We can now start teaching the lexicon the correct outbound spelling of inbound words. Once we reach this point the lexicon now knows how to spell words. The audit code need no longer test all combinations of letters.

Once break in is reached, the system will start an iterative cycle. At first only a few words in the lexicon have known good spelling. Each time another passage passes audit, then additional words are found to pass audit and the lexicon gets updated. That starts slowly but will get faster and faster as more lexicon words have correct spelling.

Passages with uncommon words and/or complex grammar can be skipped and handled later in this process. So once Psalms and Proverbs are mostly covered, then other areas across the text can be worked. Interesting initial passages are still passages with simple grammar. Genealogies, for example, will also make good starting points. Stories that we know must be inspired are also good starting points.

Passages that are almost certainly NOT inspired can be avoided until late in this work. 1 Chronicles, with long lists of strange names, is an example of a place to avoid. This is also why entering all names into the lexicon is not a good way to start.

More Planning

I still need to plan out the code for the audit side of this work. This is deeper into the recovery pipeline. Some divine names, for example, have been changed. Those go into the lexicon as well, but indicate to the system what alternative whole words need to be tested.

This is a tool chain problem that still needs to be worked out. What are the exact files? How are they formatted? What does the code for each step actually do? I need to prototype this process all the way to the bottom.

The audit process will also add audit marks to all the running letter strings that show up in the Paleo Bible app. This pass will determine what might actually be inspired. It will provide the means for anyone to inspect the work.

All this lexicon and audit work happens before the inbound word list is then combined back into the standard Bible format we use around here. I intend this to be an insertion into yet another set of files. These files will not be created from scratch with each iteration in order to preserve overall formatting.

Ultimately, the resulting text can then be carefully formatted while the audit work is still determining correct spelling and inspiration.

Theoretically, the Paleo Bible can be formatted as detailed as the BRB, should we have the need. That work can be done in parallel to the other work.

I still need to convince myself I have a working plan for that side of the recovery process. More prototyping to come. More on this problem in future weeks. I do, though finally have a plan.

Qu Map App

The link here is to our Qu Map app. The permanent link is off the front of Paleo.In. This app shows how the letters of the Paleo Alphabet map to geographic locations. We first saw this at Disneyland in California, but later saw how it maps out to other places in the world. Perhaps the most interesting is across 25 major places in the USA.

Elon Musk has been filling in a couple places on that USA version of the Qu Map. First, he built his main AI data center in Memphis, TN, which is the center of the Qu Map itself. The Qu letter appears to be a brain. The center of that map is Memphis. So an artificial brain at the middle is a reasonable match.

I was working on the computer this week while a live stream of a SpaceX wet dress rehearsal was playing in the background. There was a comment made on that stream of a purchase, or maybe pending purchase, of property in Louisiana by SpaceX. This was not all that interesting until someone said SpaceX was looking to purchase 200+ SQUARE MILES of land from ExxonMobil.

This was reported to be more land than Kennedy Space Center in Florida, which SpaceX shares with many other launch providers. So this would be a huge base for launching rockets. Especially interesting would be rockets launched to polar orbits used for AI data centers.

That wet dress rehearsal went fine. They are expected to make a full launch attempt the Tuesday after this blog goes out. But I wanted to learn more about this land purchase because it would match another part of the Qu Map. Musk already matches the Sa in Texas and the Ba in Florida. So is he about to match the Dot in Louisiana?

Pecan Island

The link here is to a post on X where S.E. Robinson takes his drone and shows the location of potentially future SpaceX property for a launch facility in Louisiana. Robinson already flies over Tesla's factory in Austin.

In this post, Robinson gives more specific details. This is 212 square miles of land, 136,000 acres. In this flight he shows the locks on the inter coastal waterway that you can then find on Google Maps if you want to see more details. This land is currently undeveloped. It was probably oil well territory in the past. There is a small town to the west of where Robinson took his drone.

This is south of I-10 and west of New Orleans. It would have easy access by sea from the current rocket factory in Texas.

Qu Map Interpretation

You can explore the Qu Map app and find New Orleans on the national map for the USA. The king will turn out to be Enoch, the first walk-off. He was taken to heaven because Joshua was pleased with him. Going to heaven is part of his written story. This is VERY rare in the text of scripture, so it is a nearly unique feature to Enoch and this location on the Qu Map.

Within New Orleans itself are the main factories that in the past produced the Saturn 5 rockets for the moon program. They also produced parts for the Shuttle program and now produce parts for the Artemis program. These are all markers on the ground for Enoch.

Shifting the region to producing parts for SpaceX would make canceling the Artemis program easier to do politically. It would provide prophetic continuity for the region from the past to the future.

The Dot letter is seed. New Orleans is a major exporter of American grain, grown up river from that port. You can think of the space program as sowing seed into space. The Star Link constellation is like seeds flying in space.

All of this is interesting because a huge SpaceX facility in this same area would be another prophetic match to that general geographic location.

A final curiosity is that Judah, so Russia, is the tribe that would normally go with this location. It was a failed trip to Russia when Musk decided he needed to make his own rockets. Curious indeed. Maybe once World War III is over, SpaceX should be making rockets in Russia too.

Watch Dates

The next dates we are watching are 2026-05-19 for the replay of the last year of Jehoshaphat. Then 2026-05-20 for the replay of the first year of Jehoram's reign. These are the Tuesday and Wednesday after this blog goes out.

We might see Trump restart war with Iran. Noah's story does not demand this, but a continuation of the war might land on some other timeline. Also watch Ukraine. This is the other active venue for this new World War.

As always, I am speculating as to where to look. Real headlines can come from anywhere.

Shop Work

This week we replaced Ryan's laptop. This machine already had some hardware issues with the keyboard. With external monitor and keyboard on his desk, these were not issues before. These problems become serious when updating to PopOS 24.04. The fix was to just replace this nearly 6 year old machine.

This was an almost identical replacement to my own laptop replaced about a year ago. Prices have gone up considerably for a nearly identical machine.

Serious price increases are something I don't think have happened in my entire adult lifetime of buying computers. Moore's law appears over, at least for Americans buying imported computers.

Ryan is now doing a fresh install of PopOS 24.04. This is not particularly difficult, but the build environment takes some setup for a local copy of the web server.

I will follow Ryan with my own laptop PopOS 24.04 update here soon. One problem at a time.

Iran War Status

This week was relatively quiet in the Iran war because Trump was off to China to visit Xi. Trump seems to have paused the war in order to not get flack from the Chinese during this trip to Beijing. Trump was also waiting out the 60 day War Powers window. He can more easily restart the war after returning to DC at this coming weekend.

There is also growing realization that Trump appears to have some sort of mental disorder. He is widely known to be unable to read status reports. He now also appears able to only track 1 or 2 points at a time. So the Iranian list of items for ending the war is beyond Trump's mental capacity to understand.

Ultimately, Trump's mental incapacity appears as convenient cover for the fact he is a vassal. He does not need to know what is going on. He only needs to read scripts and do a little ad-lib in front of cameras.

On the Iranian side, nightly rallies in support of the Iranian government continued. The Iranians continued to dig out their weapons tunnels. Most everyone on the podcast circuit expects the war to resume once Trump returns to DC. Though nobody appears to want to say so very loudly.

The oil supply shock continues to roll out around the world. "Tank Bottom" is a term rarely voiced in the fuels industry because there are rarely supply shocks strong enough to empty all storage tanks. This time is different.

"Tank Bottom" is expected in the USA around July 4, 2026. Different areas in the USA will have different Tank Bottom dates. July 4 is a consensus date for the USA as a whole. After that point, there will only be oil reaching American refineries as it is pumped from the ground. Oil prices must go much higher at that point in order to shed demand.

Many refineries will not be able to operate continuously after that date. Also worth noting there have been a series of strange explosions at refineries going on around the world. This may be a reporting bias because everyone in social media is watching. In any case, many think this looks planned.

Effects of this oil shock are hard to anticipate because nothing like it has happened in the modern era. The last time something similar happened in the USA was in 1973. This time is different. Even if Trump returned from China and caved to all of Iran's demands, it would be many weeks before fuels started flowing as before.

This looks to be the main fulfillment of the Noah Flood story. That story has 40 days of rain, but then rising waters continued to destroy the world. So the 40 days of war against Iran, even though they stopped shooting, continues to destroy much of the world.

Headline Review

The following caught my attention this week.

Victory Day Parade

The link here is to a post on X by Stanislav Krapivnik. It gives details on the Victory Day parade in Moscow on May 9, 2026. This was the 81st anniversary of the victory over Nazi Germany by the Soviet Union.

There was serious trouble with Ukraine threatening to bomb the parade. This did not happen, but it was a serious risk. Stanislav posted extensively that day about the meaning and impact on modern Russia of that war. We are headed into a replay of that same war, so it is important to understand.

Stalin's Victory Speech

The link here is to a post on Telegram with a copy of Stalin's victory speech at the end of World War II. Another reminder of the World War replay expected as part of the replay of Resurrection Sunday.

Detailed Oil Status

The link here is to a post on X that details the number of days of oil supply remaining. This is listed by major countries. It lists off any major actions by these governments to constrain use or help retail buyers. For many countries in Asia perhaps another 2 weeks before oil is gone.

Aramco CEO Comments

This link is to another post on Telegram citing the Saudi Aramco CEO Amin Nasser. He indicates 100 million barrels of oil each week are currently blocked from the markets. He stated demand would rebound if normal flows were to resume.

Imagine how many people are without fuel because of that shutoff. How many will die of famine because of this?

Timing to Recovery

Another post on X detailing the time needed to refill the oil delivery network. Even if the Strait of Hormuz opened immediately, it could not fully recover before 2027.

Demolitions in Silwan

The link here is to a Cradle Media post on Telegram detailing Israeli destruction of Palestinian neighborhoods in and near Jerusalem. 20,000 houses are said to be under demolition orders. This includes the "City of David." See 2 Samuel 5:7. This is the namesake and heart of Zion, so we would expect the Jews to want to recover this land.

This activity looks to include clearing of the above ground areas south of the walled city of Jerusalem. This is the route of the currently underground tunnels that connect to the pool of Siloam at the bottom of the hill. See John 9:7.

Videos I have previously posted here in the blog showed Israeli officials as not intending to disrupt the above ground areas near those tunnels. This post suggests those claims were a lie. The intent appears to be uncovering the entire area, removing all current above ground housing. Who knows what they might find buried below those structures.

That post indicates these will become "biblical-themed tourist parks." The Israelis probably think of this as preparing pilgrimage locations. What might Joshua think about this? Probably Zacchaeus.

FFmpeg

The link here is to a Youtube video on the Lex Fridman podcast. This is a long episode where Lex deals with the key people and history of FFmpeg.

This is perhaps one of the most important, most widespread, and most difficult, software libraries ever written.

Every reader of this blog has almost certainly used this code. This is ultimately a story about people with passion who want to change the world. Even when there is no money to make it happen. Very inspiring.

BRICS FM Meeting in India

While Trump was in China, the BRICS Foreign Ministers were meeting in India. That BRICS meeting may have been more important. Iran is gaining stature on the world stage and BRICS is one of the venues where this is happening. The video is a clip of the Iran FM at that meeting. This is just for the record to note that meeting.

Changing War in Ukraine

The link here is to a Daniel Davis / Deep Dive video on Youtube. Scott Ritter is the guest. They discuss Russia's changing war strategy as a response to Europe going to war against Russia. The Russians appear to be preparing conventional weapons strikes against European targets to attempt to stop the European war against Russia in Ukraine.

As we are watching for a replay of World War II, this is basically more evidence that such a replay will happen and that preparations are now underway to get it started. As Ritter suggests, the logic in Russia is pretty simple. Since the Nazis are now fighting us again in Ukraine, we need to start taking the war home to Germany and the rest of northern Europe. This will likely start with conventional weapons strikes on military and weapons manufacturing targets in Germany. Europe running out of fuel, expected within a matter of weeks, may slow down their growing Nazism.

Musk's All In Podcast

The link here is to a post on X by Elon Musk. Musk is making huge bets on AI and AI data centers in space. This All In Podcast covers much of the current business case for this. Doing this work in space is far better than on the ground. SpaceX could become one of the most valuable companies ever created.

Trump in China Summary

The link here is to a post on Telegram with a general summary of Trump's trip to China. Trump was there to mostly work business deals. Xi wanted a more substantive meeting, which did not happen. (The USA is run by a criminal gang. China is a civilization.)

Musk In China

The link here is to a post on Telegram with a video of Elon Musk in Trump's group who visited China this week. He is our favorite billionaire for a reason. He pulls out his cell phone and does a 360 video. His peers are worried about decorum. Very nice.

Elon's son in China

Elon brought his son X along for the ride to China. There were some fun photos of that father and son team. This link gives some commentary on Chinese interpretation of those photos of Elon with his son. It speaks of Elon building a family dynasty, which is important in Chinese business relationships.

Tesla Semi Production Begins

This link is to a Youtube video by the Electric Viking detailing how Tesla is beginning full scale production of electric Semis. Full capacity of the factory is 50,000 per year. It will take time to ramp to that number. Customers are already putting in large orders. Congratulations to the rightfully happy Tesla crew who has pulled this off.

50,000 sounds like a big number, but there are just under 50,000 miles of Interstate freeways in the USA. So 1 new Semi per mile of freeway per year is all they can produce.

Ryan and I have driven I-40 across the country. New Mexico is particularly beautiful, with rolling hills where it is possible to see great distances along that road.

We've seen endless streams of nearly bumper to bumper Semis running from horizon to horizon on that freeway. (With cars relegated to the left lane.) It will be many YEARS of production before electric Semis could ever begin to replace the current fleet of Semis.

7 Layers Model

Phil Stone — Fri, 08 May 2026 21:28:41 GMT

This blog covers an important restatement of our 7 layer model of manuscript interpretation. In particular, Layer 4 is being redefined. We also introduce more features in the Story Grid app. Then shop notes deal with software updates and finally a headline review.

The Dream

Back when I was working on the Bible Time and Bible Tribes projects full time, I had a prophetic dream where I was shown a 7 layer model for how to interpret scripture.

That model itself, in some ways, overlays a well known 7 layer ISO model for interpreting computer communications. That ISO model was the framework needed to build the internet as we know it now. At the time, I was already familiar with the ISO model, so there was some affinity from that model to the 7 layer model I was being shown in the dream.

We have used that 7 layer model for interpreting scripture to powerful effect over the years. It has given us a way to categorize various problems presented by the manuscripts that we deal with all the time. I would expect to eventually end up with a 7 Layer model exhibit as part of the family of exhibits that hang on the wall. It is a powerful model.

This past week Ryan and I have reviewed that model in light of our work over the past 25+ years. We have decided to make a conceptual change at layer 4, the middle layer in that model. So in this blog I am reintroducing the 7 layer model but with our best understanding of each layer and how each layer is used.

Background

When I had that first dream about the 7 layer model, neither Ryan nor I were particularly interested in manuscript work. We had not yet taken any Hebrew languages classes. We knew nothing about Paleo. Ryan had not started his early Bible Dots nor Book Order work. So we did not really need to have a 7 layer framework. The dream itself was foreshadowing much of the work which would come in following years.

In the dream, Layer 4 was described as "Idiom." In our discussions this week we now believe that term was a place holder for the real layer 4, which we could not even conceive of at the time.

It is very important to note that sometimes true prophetic must provide fill in for details that cannot yet be understood. None of us can receive prophetic words if the subject of that prophetic word is outside of our understanding. We needed to know about the 7 Layers even if we had no idea of one of the layers.

I am going to step through the layers in order from bottom to top. On an actual wall exhibit, layer 1 is the bottom layer. The exhibit then climbs up, or builds up, across the more abstract layers.

If I was building a primary school curriculum that introduced scripture to new and/or especially young students, that curriculum would have an intentional order that moves from the bottom of the 7 layers up through the top. You will see why as I step through those layers here.

Precursors

The layers of interpretation are dealing with the manuscript of inspired scripture as given to a reader. Before the reader can even start, the precursor lessons naturally involve familiarity with the complete set of 3d models and related exhibits.

Conceptually, these form an exhibit room were students can become familiar with each series of 3d models and the ways those models are displayed.

The silver set, for example, is placed on the vine. Those models are also assembled into a Sower and Reaper.

The gold set is placed on a mountain exhibit. These models assemble into a Silo and Well.

The copper set sits in the table exhibit. It shows off the Qu Map and drawn letter forms for each letter. These models define the meaning of each letter.

The bronze set is placed on a river exhibit. They assemble in various ways into a series of trees that show off the life cycle of plants or more specifically the life cycle of trees.

The centerpiece of the room is the Fig Tree, which combines the gold and silver series. This shows off the conceptual system for the ciphers which are used for more volumes.

Around the walls of the room are a few more major and minor wall hangings. These include, say, Joseph's Robe, the Story Grid, the Tribes, the Scripts and a few others, like the 7 Layers of interpretation, clock and calendar.

There is also an upper room. The primary exhibits there are the Crown and Eden models.

Introductory students must understand the 3d system, at least at a conceptual level. They need to see how the models form a closed system of shapes. They start with infinitely repeating stars. They end with infinitely repeating plants.

With a general introduction to these models, the student can now begin to learn the various systems needed to understand the text. Let me reintroduce those interpretive layers here.

Layer 1: Alphabet

The foundation for all other writing, is the set of symbols used to write the text. These form the inspired alphabet. These shapes are taught with the Table Exhibit. That exhibit holds 25 objects that define each letter as well as 3 glyphs that are used for punctuation. The Sha letter, for example, is a molar tooth. Each of the other letters have a similar model.

Punctuation is also part of the 3d model and part of the alphabet. These will modify the sound system, impacting how vowels are otherwise sounded out.

The vowel system itself is taught on the silver set of models. Shared vowels also impacts the audit system that inspired text must pass.

Students pass this class when they can identify each letter, name the underlying object and can pronounce each letter with that letter's correct vowel. They should also be able to explain where these lessons are found in the 3d system.

Layer 2: Root Words/Spelling

In that dream 25+ years ago I only knew the English versions of scripture. English is unique on earth in that it has lost nearly all tenses. This happened in history in the British Isles when 2 different foreign invaders were speaking with the natives. Collectively, they had 3 different systems of tenses, though they shared many of the same root words. The public could only speak with each other through shared roots. So word order became more important and words were added to English to cover what had been word endings. Through this process, English generally lost most word forms. English still has a few word forms, like past tense, but not many others.

I have seen repeated comments by English speakers trying to learn Russian, that the biggest problem is understanding the Russian language's system of tenses. This is in part because there is no longer any equivalent in English. So learning Russian requires learning a new system of constructing sentence grammar.

I have also seen where speakers who are "English as a Second Language" don't understand there are a few tenses left in English. Nima Alkhorshid on Dialog works still misses a few of those strange English tenses.

I also remember traveling to China. I was taught that the meaning of Chinese sentences can be changed on the fly based on the speaker picking up on social cues from the listener. This is because word order does not strictly define Chinese. Diplomacy involving Chinese is a very high art.

We don't yet have enough audited Paleo sentences, but word order appears to be less fixed than we know in English.

Root Words

This past winter I crawled through the design for a Greek lexicon of a Greek language Bible. In the end, I was really learning how to construct a reasonable Paleo lexicon, which I will be doing here soon. Greek has many more tenses than English. So it was an education in how to organize and explain words in a language system with many tenses. That Greek lexicon was sorted around root words. By looking at many examples, I could finally see why this is important. The learning problem begins by learning how to spell and define the root words.

Every variant form, so every tense, of the root words that exist in the base Greek text were then listed under the Greek root. Those root words are a Layer 2 learning problem. The spelling of common tenses may also be a Layer 2 problem. But combining roots with tenses will be a Layer 3 problem as they appear and only make sense when found within full sentences.

I noticed at least 1 Greek root had maybe 2 dozen forms found across the Greek text of the Bible. So in Greek, for example, there is a huge list of possible variants on the root words. Except for names, most Greek root words have at least a few different forms that show up in the Greek manuscript.

So in the dream 25+ years ago, the name for this layer was just "spelling." To an English speaker this is enough. But in Paleo this should really be the spelling of root words. So the name of this layer should be Root Words, or more simply just Roots.

In Paleo, the spelling of a root ties to the meaning of the word itself. The dictionary meaning of a word comes from the spelling of the root. There are both primary and secondary definitions tied to the letter pairing as found in the silver set, so the Vine exhibit. So each root word has a pair of definitions based on spelling.

Students need to be able to work the word definition system as expressed by the spelling and the associated 3d systems. This is a system that can be easily memorized. Ryan and I have known it for many years. This level of understanding and finding basic word definitions is the job of layer 2.

Layer 3: Sentence/Grammar

So in English, sentences can be thought of as a list of words. 25+ years ago, this was how I understood this layer. The few English words with various tenses, like past tense, or plurals, are contributing to the meaning of the sentence, but not seriously impacting grammar.

But in Paleo, there are more endings than we know in English. The basic grammar is tied to word endings. So the grammar is tied to the tenses of words. So English can be thought of as a simple list of dictionary words, but this is a simplification if used with Paleo. In Paleo sentences, the words are more often modified with forms that match the needs of the sentence grammar.

In Paleo, a sentence has meaning that is found by understanding the forms of the words, not just their order. So the word tense system is tied to the grammar more tightly than we know in English.

In any case, being able to read a sentence for its meaning is the purpose of this 3rd layer of interpretation. Students of the language pass this level in the curriculum when they are able to read a sentence and understand what it says.

Note: ISO Layer 3: Translations

The ISO model of computer communications suggests that changing out network transmission hardware happens just above Layer 3. So changing from twisted pair wired Ethernet to Fiber Optic or Wifi happens at or just above this layer.

Note that translating a Paleo manuscript would also conceptually happen just above layer 3. This is where each sentence forms a unique block of writing, with a matched meaning.

The reader of an English translation will loose the important Paleo word definition system. But, they could at least become familiar with the general stories of inspired text.

Readers of translations from Paleo will also not be able to speak in the native tongue with Kings, nor with they be able to speak with residents of Eden, but I digress.

Layer 4: Story

This is the layer that is getting redefined in this blog post. In the dream this was called idiom. I now believe idiom to have been a place holder for something that we are only now fully understanding.

For many years, Ryan has been studying idiom in the BRB. He has been marking up words with strong idiomatic meaning. There are currently options in the BRB that enable or disable idiomatic highlights.

After many years of searching, these idiomatically important words are very rare. They have not become a very exhaustive list as would be expected for a full interpretive layer.

If idiomatic meaning is tied to root word meanings, Idiom might be considered a function of Layer 2 or even better, a function of the lexicon. Idiom is not a comprehensive system that has meaning across all parts of the text.

So what is the correct system of interpretation which would naturally sit at Layer 4?

Ryan has been putting a huge amount of work into the Story Grid. This has been an ongoing project since we first taped 3x5 cards to the living room wall in Tulsa, just before we moved from there to Colorado in late 2017?

Sentences group together into stories. The overall list of stories is the highest level view of the inspired text itself. There is a massive amount of meaning for each story that is found when that story is paired against other stories using the grid.

So what I am stating here in this blog is that Layer 4 of the layers of interpretation is the Story Grid itself.

Once a reader can understand the simple textual meaning of any given story, then that reader should learn how to compare and contrast that story to the matched stories as found across the Story Grid.

Note that we expect stories to be an inspired system, unlike chapters in modern Bibles. We don't expect book level groupings of stories to be all that important. Current work with the Story Grid is bearing this out. Stories are a very important conceptual layer.

Stories Are Like Addresses

This story layer basically completes the address system for inspired text. Imagine a printed Paleo Testimony. You open it. It is organized into 625 stories. Each story pairs off to other stories. This is the top layer of interpretation with reasonable side annotation in the printed form of the book itself.

Curiously, the Story Grid is organized around the Paleo Alphabet. Story pairs are found through the same systems of letter pairing as used for word definitions and for the trees in the bronze set of 3d models. So the Story Grid is bringing systems learned in the lower layers to bear on the overall design of the entire text.

We have previously considered the Story Grid to be a function of Layer 6. This shift clears out Layer 6 to have a better, simpler, definition. More on that below.

Layer 5: Symbolic

This layer covers all symbolic meaning found cross the text. Symbolic meaning has a series of uses depending on context.

Symbols reward students who have learned the text particularly well. Simple symbolic terms often capture large conceptual frameworks that are explained in detail in various places as found across the text.

Symbols are also used as a sort of "prisoner speech" where a writer can speak in important ways where not all listeners have earned the right to understand. For example, a prisoner might use coded language to speak past a prison guard.

Joshua often speaks in the text in ways that Zionists cannot correctly comprehend. He was particularly fond of this sort of speech when speaking to the Pharisees of Jerusalem in his day.

Symbolic meaning is captured in all of the normal use of lists. A list of 4 deals with ciphered documents. A list of 6 deals with the villains. A list of 12 deals with tribes. A list of 24 deals with both Isaac and Ishmael's tribes as a whole, as well as their match set of 24 heavenly kings.

Symbolic terms used in the text are often just names for the exhibits and/or their functions. Though these are not particularly hard to figure out when a student knows the exhibits, they are often showing up in symbolic stories that involve the exhibits.

Story pairing in Layer 5 can reveal symbolic meaning. Story pairing, at times, makes no sense without knowing the symbolic meaning involved. This has been Ryan's challenge in working out which stories are inspired and where they go in the Story Grid itself.

Note that the symbolic meaning sits in a layer above the stories because symbolic meaning does not make much sense unless the reader is generally familiar with all of the stories found in inspired text.

Layer 6: Prophetic (Time and Place)

In the dream 25+ years ago this layer was defined as following a mapping rule from 1 domain to another. The examples at the time were always given using date related math. "1 day is as 1000 years" is an example from 2 Peter 3:8. If you know this rule, you can map between systems that count days and those that count 1000s of years.

This works internally to the text for building up matched timelines. It also works externally to the text in order to understand events in world history as following stories in the text. This is the interpretive layer that sets us up for applying the text to world, which is Layer 7.

The Qu Map is another example from Layer 6. The rule for Qu Maps is similar. Anything that maps to a letter will also map to a place on the Qu Map.

The Lost Tribes are found using time to find a place, or set of places, that tie people groups in the world back into the text.

Except for the Story Grid, now at Layer 4, we have not found any category of prophetic writing that is NOT tied to time and/or place in some way. There are symbolic names, so layer 5, given to people and places in the modern world. Those parties often get their identities through timeline studies.

We know modern Israel as related to Benjamin in some way because of predicted, dated, events for 1948, 1956, 1967 and 1974. Again, this is a prophetic use of time to learn the identity of a specific place. From that pairing, then various stories from the text can be applied to those places.

We know the other tribes by their seal dates. We know much about Russia because of 1000 years of Christianity in that nation. Again, we connect stories to the world almost exclusively through the use of the timeline.

Once we make those connections, we can then also make prophetic claims about those same nations because we can tie that nation to stories in the text.

There will eventually be an upper room exhibit, called the Crown, which takes this entire category and expresses it in a timeline like form. That exhibit will pick up important repeating cycles that cannot be seen without the exhibit itself.

Layer 7: Application/Sabbath

This is the top layer in the 7 layer model. In the dream the word "Application" was used for this layer. This is the same name as given to Layer 7 in the ISO 7 layer model of computer communications. In that ISO model, the 7th layer means the network made a reliable connection. The computer user is now connected to a remote application. Say a website. The computer user is now concerned with application issues, like watching a video.

In our case, this Layer 7 is where the text takes a rest. The text takes a Sabbath. The text now asks the user to interact with some real world subject itself.

We were not following Sabbath when that dream happened 25+ years ago. So the term Sabbath did not have much lived meaning. Now it does. Sabbath is the day when readers should be interacting with the text itself. This is done in order to apply it to the real world in some way.

The main point of this layer is that it is up to the reader to decide what to do with the text. Are you going to follow Joshua? Or not? Are you going to learn about how the world follows the text? Or not? Are you going to stay away from the teaching of the scribes and pharisees? Or not?

Ciphered Documents

So now there is the question about ciphered documents. We expect cipher work to come after the audit is finished. We expect more documents to cipher out of the based inspired text. We expect some of those ciphered documents to be known to history as ancient, but off-canon, written works. We also expect those off-canon works to have been edited, just like everything else from history.

Where do these additional texts sit in this 7 Layer model?

Here is a way to visualize the answer. Imagine the story grid as a tiled floor. A big floor, in a large room, with 25 tiles by 25 tiles.

Now imagine putting a printed copy of each story on each of the respective tiles.

Next, imagine those stories go through ciphers. Where do you put the resultant ciphered stories?

The answer starts out relatively simple. Just stack each result of the ciphers back on top of the original story from which it was ciphered. So the ciphers sit in the original spot on the story grid along with the base story.

That imaginary floor will stack up with more stories. But they will be arranged in the same way as the base stories already in place. Besides connecting down to the base text, the ciphered stories should also connect to each other just like all the base stories already connect.

The set of content in the ciphered stories becomes available for interpretation through the same 7 Layer model used for the base text. Those ciphered documents are constructed through letters arranged in words which form into sentence. They sit in the story grid, so pair off through the grid like other stories. They will use the same general set of symbols as the base text. (Though they may introduce more.) They will connect to the timeline in various ways. They will finally also apply to the world.

So the 7 Layer model of interpretation will also apply to ciphered stories.

Story Grid

Perhaps in keeping with the Story Grid becoming Layer 4 in our new understanding of the 7 Layer model, the Story Grid app was significantly updated again this week. These new features are worth noting. The link here is to the Story Grid app. The permanent link is on the front of Paleo.In.

The power of this app is that it shows the relations between stories. This has been an important tool for figuring out what stories are inspired. Once our recovery work is complete, this app becomes the functional equivalent of a Study Bible. So it has a permanent place in our app lineup. It is the place for understanding Layer 4 related issues in the inspired text.

Canceling Study Bibles

Study Bibles are traditionally important tools because they allow readers to understand what stories in standard Bibles are thought to mean. I remember when I was young member of a Bible Study. Everyone in that study had a certain specific Study Bible. It was giving us a reference for explaining what the various stories in the Bible are thought to have meant.

I also distinctly remember when the members of our Bible Study felt a particular note in that Study Bible was provably false. Our collective illusion of invincibility and trust had been shattered.

We tried to share what we found with someone at church the following Sunday. They refused to listen. They treated the Study Bible's note AS IF it was inspired text. They were obviously caught in some sort of Study Bible trap. In their mind, it wasn't even theoretically possible to come up with an alternative interpretation. What was printed in the side notes was more trustworthy than truth from other scriptural passages.

When our Bible Study had gathered again, and could speak freely, we were basically done with using Study Bibles at all. We did not like how authority of printed notes overrode basic truth.

The way the notes in Study Bibles were trusted when they should not be trusted was the tip of a very big iceberg. Little did I know at the time that Study Bibles are how the Zionists took Protestant Christians far from traditional Christianity in order to specifically support Israel. We were sitting ducks for evil.

Story Pairs

In the end, interested readers still have a need for a tool for understanding what, exactly, each inspired story is actually about.

The correct way to solve this problem is by comparing story against story. Or by studying alternative runs of stories. This does NOT need a human author to come along and explain how tradition explains a story. All this really needs is a tool for showing which stories pair to other stories. That is the enduring purpose of the Story Grid app.

Grid Headings

The Story Grid app itself is a giant map of the 625 stories. They are arranged on a 25x25 grid. Each square has a 2 letter code that shows the row/column within the grid. Tap any story and a pop up shows the text for that story.

So far, this is just a strange form of a table of contents in a regular copy of the The Testimony. The text in the Story Grid app is ultimately the same as the text in The Testimony. The same stories as found in The Testimony can be easily read in order just by tapping the Story Grid squares in their numeric order.

Where the Story Grid app gets interesting is in the pop ups found in the left and top labels along the sides of the main grid. Those pop ups have been reworked in this week's release of the Story Grid app in an important way.

Those pop ups have always been the place for Ryan's notes as he has been working out the story placements in this grid. Those notes still remain. Some of his notes are complete. Some are yet to be filled in as he continues to work out the inspired form of the overall Story Grid.

Ryan's notes are like the scaffolding used for building refurbishment. They are there to get the place rebuilt. They provide his evidence that the grid is filled in correctly. The audit work should eventually confirm the work Ryan is doing. We'll see. Can audit indicate book order? Maybe. Maybe not.

Variant Reads

What has been added this week are quick links to important variant reads for both the rows and columns. A variant read is an alternative story reading order driven by some known alphabet related system. There are 2 variant reads that come from the 3d system. The first is from the Vine exhibit. The second is from the River exhibit.

Both of these exhibits ultimately arrange the alphabet in specific and unique ways that are NOT the normal alphabetic order. For the Vine exhibit, the variant read story order is found by "climbing the vine." A memory peg is like how Jack climbed the Bean Stalk. For the River exhibit, the variant read story order is found by "floating the river." A memory peg is to imagine floating down the Jordan river on a raft from the Sea of Galilee to the Dead Sea.

In both of these adventures, the goal is to discover new stuff on the journey.

Note that the Quad letter is at the top of the Vine. That letter is also in the Sea of Galilee. So climbing the vine to the Quad story is the turn around point for floating the river.

Quick Access

So this week, the pop ups for the rows and columns have gained quick access to these variant reads for each of the respective rows and columns. So if you want to climb the vine, or float the river, you can do so by just tapping the header pop up and then tapping a choice along the top edge of the pop up itself.

The Sabbath Reads, available in the Sabbath Reads app, are yet another alternative column related read on the Story Grid. So the Sabbath Read variations are also provided in the pop ups for the column headers.

Enough of the Story Grid seems to have come together that it is now possible to see some of the promise of these variant reads. This is all still subject to change, Ryan is still working on this problem, so beware. Let me share an example so you can see what we are seeing and get a sense of the promise of what will come from this.

Vine Read Details

The Vine read starts with the Mo letter. As currently arranged, the Book of Psalms occupies the Mo row on the Story Grid. So Climbing the Vine will always begin with a Psalm.

For the far left column of the Story Grid, climbing the vine will begin with story 325, Psalm 1, about how blessed is the man who does not walk in the way of evil, nor stays in the counsel of sinners, nor sits in the company of mockers... Whatever he begins he accomplishes. It also contrasts this with the wicked, who will be like chaff blown away, not justified in the judgment, who will not sit in the assembly and finally how the wicked will perish.

These are the themes we would expect through the rest of the Vine Read. So we are watching for examples that compare and contrast these ideas.

Staying in this column, the next Vine letter will be the Yo. So story 250. This is currently the start of Tobit. Tobit is perhaps one of the most extreme examples of the ideal described in Psalm 1. The start of Tobit gives us his credentials, and all the things he typically did to help others.

The Vine read then moves to Oo. In this column, story 400, which is Joshua's early years. So Joshua is going to be following Psalm 1 like Tobit does. In this story of Joshua's early life we learn how he was taken to Egypt following direction given to Joseph in a dream. Here baby Joshua and his parents are being protected from evil Herod. Once Herod died, Joseph was free to return his family back to the land of Jacob. The death of Herod can be easily seen as an example from Psalm 1. We are seeing an example about how Joshua often protects those who follow him. In this case by hiding in Egypt.

The Vine read then moves to the Jo. This will be story 175. This is the account of king Joash. The distinctive feature of this story is how Joash is hidden by his nurse while evil queen Athaliah is ruling the land. This is another example of being hidden from evil. That queen is eventually killed by palace guards once the young king is old enough to be brought out in public. This an example of what eventually happens to evil, though it adds how it can take years for that to happen.

Let me skip ahead to the end of this particular Vine read. The vertical Vine read always ends on the Quad row, so the bottom row of the Story Grid. This is usually a story from Revelation. In this case the first column Vine read will end with story 600. This is the introduction to Revelation. It begins with a vision of Joshua coming in the clouds. This is like earlier examples of waiting for deliverance from evil. In this case, the wait is measured in historical time, not personal time.

This final Vine read story continues with details of John's situation. From the earlier stories in the Vine read, we can assume John was on Patmos for some reason related to safety or protection. We can also assume that he was an example of someone whom Joshua favored, like some of the earlier examples in the Vine read itself. In this case, John's is rewarded with what will become a visit to Eden. This is, of course, the main goal of life itself.

The Promise In Alternative Reads

There is enough promise in these reads to think these alternative reading orders are useful and intended as the inspired alternatives to Study Bibles. Just reading the text in ways that show off connections is a much more satisfying way to find deeper meaning in the text.

It will be much more difficult for low cognitive ability readers to confuse Zionist notes with inspired text. This is a nice feature for large groups of people who may assemble together. There will always be a few people with low cognitive ability in any large group of people. Even when they don't really get the story, at least they can learn regular text instead of learning to quote someone's Zionist notes.

Once the entire Story Grid is filled in, this will not depend on the theology nor secrete club membership of famous pastors who set out to write the notes found in modern Study Bibles.

Story Grid Tech Notes

This week I changed some of the tech behind the Story Grid app. Our build system allows for app side rendering of Bible Quotes. This is only needed when an app quotes most of the text of the Bible more than one time. The Story Grid app is now quoting the TT subset of the BRB for something like 5 times. (With more coming, we are not yet showing diagonal reads.)

So this week's update carries the text of the Bible around only 1 time, and in its most dense form. This reduces the installed memory footprint from around 70 megabytes to around 27 megabytes. The original install time and later app update times will all be better. Our server will also take less of a bandwidth hit.

The cost of this change is the Bible's text is filled into quotes only when needed. Some users may see the text flash in when the various pop up choices are made. If this becomes a problem on someone's (probably unusual) hardware, please let me know.

Iran War Notes

At the beginning of this week we were still in a stand off between the Zionist west and Iran. The 2 sides had been exchanging proposals for an end to the war while a tentative cease fire remained.

Technically, Lebanon remained at war with Israel, breaking the agreed cease fire. So Iran was looking weak. Iran was most likely using the time to prepare for resumption of the fighting.

Trump appears to be the first to have blinked. Overnight heading into May 4, 2026, Trump announced his intention to escort ships out from the Persian Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz.

To many observers this looked something like a trap against Iran. If Iran were to shoot first, Trump would blame Iran for restarting the war.

This cat-and-mouse game continued off and on for most of the week. Near the end of the week there were various explosions in the UAE. Western media blamed Iran, who would disavow at least the initial attacks. But this was used as pretext for UAE to start a formal war against Iran.

By Friday of this week it looked like there was ongoing fighting between the UAE as a Zionist proxy and Iran. The Zionist war plan against Iran needs to foment civil war within Iran so as not to use western troops. This is theoretically possible in the south east of Iran as well as the north west. So the UAE as the starting point for a war might provide cover for ground operations in the far south east of Iran.

Watch Dates

Peeking ahead, the next watch date is 2026-05-19, we will return to that in next week's blog.

Shop Work

The shop work this week was a continuation of the hardware upgrade cycle going on with our 2 desktop machines. The old machine, called Flash, was originally purchased in 2017. The new machine, called Cilla was purchased in 2025 to replace Flash. (Flash and Cilla are named after the sloths in the original Zootopia movie.)

Cilla came with a new AMD graphics card. It worked with PopOS, but not with the 3d design software. So that original GPU card was replaced with a spare Nvidia graphics card from Flash, purchased when Flash was new. Everything then worked fine. Cilla, with PopOS and 3d design, has been running fine ever since.

In messing around with the next version of PopOS on Flash we found trouble with support for what is now an obsolete GPU. We don't need 3d design software on Flash, so Cilla's original AMD graphics could be used there. But alas, Flash's old BIOS cannot support the new AMD Graphics. So Flash is probably headed for Ubuntu server, on old graphics, or else Flash gets retired. (Flash is already something like 9 years old.)

Cilla, though is now running a very old GPU. To upgrade PopOS and keep running 3d design software means we need both a newer generation of graphics and an Nvidia Graphics card. I found the simplest new Nvidia card that would work with PopOS. It was available on Amazon and arrived this past week. That new card has new monitor cable plugs and needed new cables for the monitors. Those cables came in yet another Amazon order. All this new hardware on Cilla was swapped in. Cilla was now back in everyday working order, ready for the PopOS upgrade.

That upgrade also happened late this week. The install media offered to replace the existing operating system, but keep user accounts. This is a variation for Linux update that I'd not seen before. It worked pretty much perfectly. It did require reinstalling apps, which is not that hard. This form of upgrade left a pristine system configuration which was very nice. We reconfigure our desktop systems to match the production server configuration so we can test websites. So a clean system configuration after update was nice to have.

We normally update systems every 2 years jumping along using only Long Term Support (LTS) versions of Linux. Because PopOS was late, we have been nearly 4 years on the last LTS version of the OS. So it has been awhile since we did this sort of upgrade.

In all the upgrade work, we found only a minor configuration issue on the Nginx web server software. A change to our build environment fixed that problem. I have brought up copies of all of our websites and apps on Cilla. They are all running fine.

Paleo Keyboards

A major feature is how PopOS 24.04 drops system support for an old graphics system known as X11. We understand this change was done to clean up and speed up display handling across the desktop. The new Cosmic desktop system on PopOS is obviously very fast, much faster than the old system it replaces.

We use a font design tool called Font Forge which is based on X11. Turns out that tool runs fine on the new PopOS. We suspect because that app itself still has an X11 library that adapts, or shims, to the new graphics drivers.

But reports of dropping X11 worried us because we use a custom keyboard layout that lets us type in Paleo letters whenever needed. This is going to become very serious here soon as we start audit work. Updating all this software is happening now so I can keep working audit code.

Our custom Paleo keyboard uses a file format defined for use in X11. So we were worried there was either a new standard for keyboard layouts or that there would be no customization for keyboards.

To our great delight the same steps we first figured out in 2009 for installing this custom paleo keyboard still work now. PopOS did not change the basic keyboard customization file formats that have been around for years. Even though those formats were originally called out for use in X11.

We can now type in Paleo and we are ready to rebuild font files with audit related marginal marks as needed for audit work.

This has been a very nice week. We still need to update our laptops before going ahead with more audit work. More on this later.

Headline Review

The following caught my attention this week.

Fishing For War

This link is to a Health Ranger cartoon showing the status in the Strait of Hormuz. The Zionists need Iran to start shooting. So they are dangling US Navy ships hoping for a bite. So far, the Iranians have not taken the bait.

US Ships Turning Around

This was one of many posts dated May 4, 2026, where the US Navy ships that Trump sent to escort ships through the Strait of Hormuz were fired on and had to turn around. The US side then said they would escort via radio. Strange week.

May 4 Games

Another post on Telegram detailing apparent US attempts to get Iran to shoot first in breaking the cease fire.

Wife's Cake

Cake Closeup Photo

In previous weeks I have been looking at Ben Givr's gallows as a possible match to Haman. He promoted a new Israeli law to use hanging as lawfare against Palestinians. Gallows are very rarely used in the modern world. They are relatively rare in the text. So matching Givr to Haman is worth at least noting in order to follow this story. There are many months before we get to possible replay dates for Esther and Haman.

This week this story got even stranger. His wife baked him a cake with a hangman's noose on the frosting. The links above provide photographic details.

In the text, it is Haman's wife who proposes the use of such a tool. See Esther 5:14. Now we see how Givr's wife is also involved in this strange story. Not good for him to see such matches lining up.

Scofield Bible Scam

This is a to a link on X where Natali Morris discusses the Scofield Bible scam. Should not be news to most readers here. We used the NIV Study Bible, not Scofield. Scofield is the grand-daddy of the genre. I have not read it, and don't intend to read it. But interesting background if you don't know the history and purpose for this first example of the crime.

Crow Feeds Cat

In 1 Kings 17:2-4 is the written account of Elijah being sent into hiding by a brook. Part of that story is how the ravens will feed Elijah. This story begs a question. Is this a symbolic story? So "ravens" are a name of a group of people who will feed the prophet? Or else is this literal, that actual ravens will feed the prophet?

The link above, if real, suggests this family of birds is known to feed others in need. The link here is to a post on X with a story about a crow feeding a sickly cat. Even after the cat was rescued, the crow kept returning each morning. Curious. Elijah probably had actual ravens feeding him, not figurative. Readers familiar with ravens are supposed to just know this.

Remembering Odessa

Memorial Candle

Flowers At The Gate

The links here are to various posts on Telegram that form a reminder that we just passed the 12th anniversary of the Coup in Ukraine that kicked off the current war with Russia.

Now that we know that event as the replay of resurrection morning, it is important to remember details, as this was the formal start for this prophetic day. This was the start of World War III, where the Zionists attacked Russia.

The main violence at that point was broader than Kiev. The worst was in Odessa.

Palestinians Out Of Jerusalem

The link here by the Cradle on Telegram suggests the Israelis are currently removing Palestinians from in and around Jerusalem. This is Ethnic Cleansing, a type of war crime. This is perhaps evidence of big plans for the city of Jerusalem itself.

Nuke Plant Strikes

The Zionists in Ukraine have been striking targets around a Russian nuke plant. This post has some details. Death cults are strange. They kill their own just as easily as others. In this case they will poison their own world. So are the rulers in Kiev locals from Ukraine? Probably not.

Famine Coming

This link is to a Youtube video on Daniel Davis' channel. He interviews Mike Adams. Adams sees ahead better than most. The argument in this video is how Trump has already triggered a global famine. So far, the risk is mostly in parts of the world where food is already scarce. As this gets worse this will reach North America as well. The Zionist death cult is at work.

Professor Jiang on DOAC

In this Youtube video the good professor lays out the basic parameters of World War III. This is a nice easy to understand high level introduction to the war ahead. Prophetic stories will give us more specific details as we go along.

Near the end, Jiang explains the Kabbalah based eschatology behind this war. He has argued in previous videos that the religion of secret societies is really driving war goals around Israel.

Jiang is usually citing official sources. So I don't dispute his report. But the Zionists behind this war don't know the story of Zacchaeus. They don't get the purpose and future of Israel.

More Later,

Story Grid Updates

Phil Stone — Fri, 01 May 2026 21:30:54 GMT

This blog reviews updates to the Story Grid app. Before that, some reader feedback triggered more study of the Ethiopian Bible. Finally, code status and a headline review.

Could This Be Related to Paleo?

This week started with feedback from last week's blog. I was sent a pic of a random page out of an Amharic language Ethiopian Bible. I was asked if this could be related to Paleo?

The question, and the pic, triggered another discovery in current Paleo related kerning. Let me share the whole story here, and then show what just changed in our work.

I showed the photo to Ryan, so he cold think about this text along with me. This photo was of a random page in the native Amharic script, which is also the modern language for much of Ethiopia. Pages in this script have a certain artistry which was the first thing we noticed. But, there was some important details.

The particular Bible in question had been purchased in Ethiopia. So it was perhaps easier to find in that country. We already have a new copy of the Ethiopian Bible, but translated into in English. We don't have an original language version of that Bible, like we have Bibles in Aramaic, Samaritan, Hebrew and Greek.

Our first instinct was to see if we could find a copy in the original script for sale around here. Amazon does carry it. Our order arrived this week. I'll share some pics on Telegram when this blog goes out.

We also ordered a names dictionary for Amharic. This should be enough to figure out the map to the Paleo alphabet. We still cannot find an electronic copy of the Amharic manuscript, which we would need for serious computer work, but we don't need that for now.

Because this is such an alien Bible, let me cover some key points with links for anyone who may want to learn more. What follows here is the outline of the precursor work before conversion of Amharic back to Paleo.

Geʽez

The original language for scripture in Ethiopia was Geʽez. The link here is to the Wikipedia article for the Geʽez script. There are several secondary articles for readers here who may want to read more.

This particular language is now extinct, but it is still used for liturgical purposes in Ethiopia and Eritrea. It was replaced with Amharic in the 1400s, which is what we see now in printed Bibles. So there was a transformation in the writing system around 500 years ago.

Amharic

The link here is to the Wikipedia article for the Amharic language. This is the language that replaced Geʽez starting in the 1400s. There are very large numbers of people today who use this language. It is the federal language of Ethiopia as well as the language of several areas within Ethiopia.

Protestant Canon

It is also worth noting that on Amazon we could only find an Amharic Bible using a Protestant canon. So a 66 book Bible, not the normal 88 Books of an Ethiopian Bible.

I am starting to identify the handiwork of modern Zionists against Christians as being marked by a 66 book canon. I had a strange prophetic day here recently. I read a post on X that noted the famous 666 reference in Revelation is a reference to the Israeli flag. 6 lines creates 6 triangles forming a 6 pointed star.

I then surged, as I normally do when Joshua wants me to do lots right now. I did those lots and landed on the original 666 Revelation passage itself. Then another lot landed on a passage naming Benjamin. The point? Joshua agrees. 666 is a marker for modern Israel. So as a memory peg, the 66 books of the Protestant Bible is a child of Zionism. Stay away from 66 books when you can. In this case we can't.

Prayer Book Example

The link here is directly to a Wikipedia photo of a 15th century prayer book in this earlier script. This is a little less complex than the modern printed text. In particular, the modern punctuation is more complex.

But, in this photo, you can still see the use of the Paleo Colon as the between word separator. The sentence terminator is harder to make out, because this example was made with both red and black ink.

The photo we were sent was much more clear. The end of sentence marker is a double Paleo Colon. We would print this same shape simply by placing 2 Paleo Colons in succession.

You can imagine the evolution from Paleo. In this Amharic tradition, the single Paleo Dot for a between word separator was duplicated vertically. But then, the Paleo Colon was no longer distinct. So that character was duplicated horizontally for use as the end of sentence marker.

This Amharic example is proving my contention that the Paleo Comma, so 2 dots in succession, is why the Paleo Colon is rotated vertical. This is slightly unclear given the various 3d systems that would inform Paleo Colon placement on the canvas.

Double Paleo Colon?

But, this Amharic example begs a question. Did the inspired Paleo manuscript we are working on recovering, have some use for a double Paleo Colon that was then repurposed in Amharic?

This question suggests Amharic was only repurposing an original, but known, Paleo punctuation.

This question bothered me because I was reworking kerning code this week too, and the kerning tables that are also used in the audit, have room for a double colon.

Like a double Paleo Dot, a double Paleo Colon would audit uniquely. The audit system, and eventually the weaning system for ciphered documents, will show exactly where double Paleo Colons should be placed in running text.

So there is room in the inspired Paleo writing system for a double Paleo Colon just like there is for a double Paleo Dot. But, what would a double colon mean in running Paleo text?

Before answering that question, let me review more interesting details about the Ethiopian Bible.

Abjad

The Ethiopian script is a writing system known as an Abjad. In this type of writing system the vowels have no specific letters, only the consonants.

The link here is to the Wikipedia article that explains the term which was first coined in 1990. Earlier terms used for this same idea included "consonantal alphabets," which is perhaps a less obscure name for the same idea.

Modern academics want specific technical terms so they form an elite club hidden from the public. Consonantal Alphabet is a better term.

In any case, Paleo is an Abjad, a Consonantal Alphabet. Paleo does not need to draw vowels because the student using the alphabet was taught vowels using the 3d system of exhibits. Vowels are on the top side of the silver series of 3d models. That series teaches which consonants share which vowels. That lesson is key to the audit system.

Ezana Stone

The link here is to a Wikipedia article for the Ezana Stone. This is very similar to the more well known Rosetta Stone. In this case the stone is tri-lingual, in Geʽez, Sabaic and Greek. It was carved between the years 350 and 356, which is establishing how Geʽez was in common use by that time in history.

The Ezana stone is located in Axom, or Aksom, Ethiopia. This city is famous as the African location of the Ark of the Covenant. This was likely home for the Queen of Sheba mentioned in 1 Kings 10:1. This is also the likely home for the Ethiopian official that Philip meets starting in Acts 8:26. These visitors are likely coming from one of Ishmael's lost tribes. So Ethiopia is almost certainly going to be one of those tribes.

Note that the Queen of Sheba may have either copied Solomon's ark or Axom became a place for hiding the Ark in Jeremiah's day. Christian churches in Ethiopia still mark that ark heritage on their altars. Solomon's ark may or may not be an actual artifact from the inspired exhibits.

Perhaps there is a special box to carry the stone tablets. Solomon may have created a gold box as part of his false temple construction work. Axom may have received the original pre-Solomon ark from Moses' day, which is also a curious idea. The queen's fascination with Solomon suggests she did not know about the history that came before. She may, though, have learned the language which had not radically changed by Solomon's day.

This is important because Solomon was using the Paleo Alphabet. The Hebrew alphabet of today was invented in Nebuchadnezzar's time, roughly 400 years after Solomon. So there is a strong reason to think the Amharic language tradition branches off from Paleo BEFORE Hebrew. The same is true for Greek.

Computerization

Whenever I look at a new language and/or writing system I usually turn to the Unicode standard. These documents have some conventions that make it easy to understand a complete system of writing. This is ultimately what modern computers are able to express in any given written language or writing system. So the Unicode Standard is normally a complete view of what is possible to write.

Ethiopic Unicode

Ethiopic Unicode Supplement

The 2 links here are to the Unicode standard for Ethiopic. This writing system was added in Unicode 6.0, but then extended with more characters in Unicode standard 17.0. Extensions in the Unicode Standard typically mean the common use of the writing system by early computer users was not as complete as actually exists in writing out in the world.

This happens because someone came along after Unicode 6.0 and tried to computerize some obscure manuscripts from an ancient version of the language. So the supplement was added by someone who cared about computerizing obscure texts. The 2 pages linked here are those which together are specific to the Ethiopic family of writing systems, Amharic being one of those languages.

What matters here, as an introduction to Ethiopic, are the names given to each glyph. These Unicode Standard letter names are always written in Latin letters. This is done so most of the world can at least know some unique name for each possible letter than can be expressed in the computer.

These Unicode Standard pages usually follow someone's simple convention for the map from an original alphabet to Latin or at least Latin sounds. This character naming convention is used in the Unicode standard for nearly all alphabets used in the world.

If we were ever to submit a proposed standard for the Paleo Alphabet, we would use letter names like "PALEO LETTER WA."

Unicode letter names are very rough. They are a first pass guess about how someone thought the letters might map to Latin. From there, we have a start at mapping to other writing systems, like eventually Paleo.

Document Layout

These standards documents always follow the same form. There is a graphical map of the characters with examples. This shows how a certain block of Unicode is covered by characters. A font designer needs this. Then there is a list of the same characters with specific names given in Latin letters.

By looking at the first link above, you can see the first entry, 1200, is ETHIOPIC SYLLABLE HA. This is followed by Unicode values for the Ethiopic syllables for HU, HI, HAA, HEE, HE, HO and HOA.

You can see how a vowel is attached to a root letter, which are really short syllables. In other writing systems these are usually called a "LETTER" of some sort. In this case the Latin H is used to mark the shared consonant across all of these different Ethiopic syllables.

You can look at the drawn form and see these are often similar in terms of shape. Whatever Paleo letter this may be, perhaps a Paleo Ha, we can assume all of these same Unicode characters are coming from the same original Paleo root letter. These syllables are varying by the vowel only. Note that vowels are usually following the consonant. This, too, is like most of Paleo.

Note also that an actual ancient text probably would not use all of these syllables. The spread of vowels comes across time. We would need to survey a real manuscript to see what Unicode values are really used.

Since names in the text, like Abraham, are usually stable across time, these Unicode standards, combined with a names dictionary, should be enough to crack this family of ancient Bible texts and recreate the base Paleo that informed this canon.

Was this originally a lost copy of an inspired text?

Was it a translation into another language?

The story of the Queen of Sheba suggests the Amharic language tradition roots back to the Paleo language history as it existed in Solomon's day.

The Geez version, from which the Amharic was derived, would be more likely to match a Paleo text.

This process, of course, is only needed should we find a computerized version of the Ethiopian Bible text and then had some reason to go further with this study.

Paleo Double Colon

As we were studying samples of Amharic language Bibles we saw that the Paleo Colon is used as the current between word separator. We also saw 2 Paleo Colons used in succession as the sentence terminator.

Other variants of punctuation are also used. Often a colon is combined with 1 or more lines as other marks. Presumably these are the Amharic equivalents of English commas, colons, semicolons and perhaps other word gaps unique to Amharic vocalization.

We could easily see how special punctuation in Amharic is more frequent than in any other script we know. Amharic has a robust family of between word marks.

So this caused us to stop and think about what nuanced meaning these marks may be indicating. Most other written languages don't care about this specific level of detail.

Since this is a double end of sentence marker, presumably there is some special type of end of sentence that inspired writing would want to flag.

What might that be?

The most interesting candidate for this would be a question mark. A double Paleo Colon may very well mark the end of a question. (Or perhaps like Spanish, frame a question or perhaps mark the start of a question.)

I have adjusted the kerning tables to include this case on the expectation that this is how questions are marked. Audit work will uncover if this is actually used in the text.

This does not change anything else in terms of the overall system design. There are no changes to the 3d system needed for this. If a double Paleo Colon is inspired, they will appear as if by magic in the audit work here soon.

Followup To Last Week's Blog

We have been looking at the Iran war for the past several weeks. There is a good chance that this war, or at least this venue, is mentioned in Revelation 9. There is a strange variant in the Aramaic text for one of the key verses in this story. In is important to note for readers here who may also be thinking about this war and these prophetic stories.

Revelation 9:11

The link here is to the troubling verse in our VR app. This app shows off a bunch of different texts in interlinear format. It is designed to show 1 verse at a time.

If you have at least the VSP and any of the Greek based English texts turned on, then you can see the last word in this verse in both Aramaic using Paleo characters and then Greek based translations of the same verse.

This verse is about the king over the bottomless pit. In most texts the last word in that verse is the name of that king, so Apollyon.

In the Aramaic based texts the last word is still a name, but it becomes Sha-Re-Wa in Paleo. This will transliterate into English as Sharia. There is no reference to the name Apollyon in Aramaic. The name of the king over the bottomless pit is "Sharia." The word passes Paleo audit, but the sentence may or may not pass audit. Ask me again in a few weeks.

The war against Iran is by the Zionists. They are attempting to defeat who? The Shia of Iran. What law do they follow? Some variation known as Sharia.

What text we use matters to how we understand the world. More on this strange point once the audit is further along.

Story Grid

The link here is to the Story Grid app. The permanent link is on the front page at Paleo.In. This was previously called the "400" app. It now has 625 theoretical stories on the grid.

This week Ryan has made a significant change in the order of some of the central rows in this app. These changes also show up in The Testimony app and the Sabbath Reads app. Watch for changes to all of the scripture apps as this blog goes out on Friday.

Moving Minor Prophets

The first change is how the row of Minor Prophets has been raised up in the table and now fills the Ha row, starting at story 200. All the other rows in the Old Testament have been shifted down by 1 row. So conceptually, the entire center of the table has been changed.

There is a reference to Amos in the Book of Tobit. Normally, internal book references are against books which have already been written. So Amos must have been ahead of Tobit. This hints the entire set of minor prophets are also ahead of Tobit. So there was reason to push this row up. The question was where?

The current thinking on the Story Grid is that historical narrative runs through the fall of Jerusalem at story 199. This is the far right of the Jo row. Then what follows the historical narrative are the detailed back stories as written by the prophets.

So the minor prophets now come first, landing on the Ha row starting at 200. Then the major prophets, Isaiah and Jeremiah on the The row starting at story 225.

The minor prophets may have all been written before the Assyrian Deportation, but proving this is hard. Isaiah is coincident with that deportation, so may have been written after the minor prophets. Jeremiah is coincident with the Babylonian Captivity, and naturally follows Isaiah.

Moving Tobit

The other change this week has been shifting Tobit to the front of what is now the Yo row. By this change Ryan is suggesting Tobit was chronologically ahead of Esther and Ezra.

All of these changes cause the prophetic writings from Habakkuk to Job to fall in what should be a chronological order. Ezekiel and Daniel are currently left at the end of the Old Testament. This in part because these books, especially Daniel, give timing for the gap and details about the New Testament which starts in Luke.

There is still more work to prove this arrangement. This is at least another step towards solving this riddle.

Thinking About Revelation

With the Iran war there has been many people wondering about Revelation and if this war might be at least a precursor to Armageddon. Last week's blog was on Revelation in part because of these conversations. I only touched on Revelation. My hesitancy is with the problems of finding the inspired stories before trying to apply them to current headlines.

Revelation has a series of difficult riddles, in part because so much editing has happened to that book. Revelation must have been so frightening to Ananias that he had to layer on all sorts of distractions. He must have had good reason to obscure the inspired story.

So, Ryan took last week's blog as inspiration to see if he could settle the story list as found in Revelation.

Shifting the rows in the Story Grid was part of that work. Ryan also crawled through Revelation itself to see if he could spot the expected 24 stories that would fill in the 24 cells at the bottom of the Story Grid.

With the updates to the scripture apps that go out with this blog, Ryan has made a pretty good guess at those likely stories. This is certainly better than anything we've had before. Revelation has strong internal story pairing. These pairs work through both the silver series of simple alphabet folding and through bronze series, so the river exhibit, of letter pairing.

The challenge for reading Revelation is that it uses EVERY symbolic system from the rest of the text. It is like a final exam for advanced readers. It is referencing details from the various 3d exhibits. It is using advanced understanding of the timeline. It is including Ishmael's side of the Lost Tribes. It is folding back in various ways across the Story Grid.

Even deciding if a story in Revelation is a good thing, or bad thing, cannot be done without understanding all back references to other stories in the text.

Revelation assumes readers know the editors and the community in which they live. It explains their eventual destruction. It is the story of victory over the Zionists.

I expect to return to the content in Revelation in future blogs. More on that later. Interested readers here may want to survey this week's cut at Revelation in order to see where we currently stand on that book.

Code Work

I am continuing work on the Paleo Bible project. Still probably a few weeks before this can be released. I have been reworking code from 2024 when I first started looking at a full audit. This week I formally changed the way I am measuring text. Let me explain the problem and what this means for a permanent record.

Mechanical Design

One of the most important lessons when learning how to do mechanical design work is to know how to set the origin for measuring any particular project. Picking the correct origin can have major impact in later steps in a project. A wrong origin usually means measurement and design calculations are more difficult than they otherwise needed to be. Picking a poor origin can also make a design harder for humans to correctly understand.

Origin Principles

The 2 key principles are easy to remember. 1) Watch for symmetry. If a project has natural symmetry, the origin should be the point of reflection in that symmetry. 2) Watch for connection points to other parts. Especially watch for the most major mounting point or a base plate.

Picking the correct origin means the overall design will be easier to comprehend. By using natural symmetry, it will make the design easier to describe using design software.

As an example, think about the origin point for measuring an airplane. Ask yourself, where should zero be in the left/right, up/down, and front/back axis of the overall design.

Later on, individual parts can have their own unique design origins. This question is how should the entire plane be measured.

Airplanes have symmetry in the left/right dimension so the origin in that axis is easy to spot, down the middle of the airplane. Any design project with left/right symmetry should normally have an origin in the middle.

In airplanes, there is less symmetry in the other axis, so here it gets tricky. In the up/down axis, the main body of the airplane itself is a round aluminum tube. So the middle of that circle is a good choice for the origin on the up/down axis. Alternatively, the ground could be used. The ground is effectively a mount point or base plate for the entire airplane. But, the landing gear and tires causes the distance to the ground to be variable. So the ground is not a good choice for the origin in the up/down direction.

But what about the front/back axis? There is no symmetry between the cockpit and tail. So symmetry does not explain where to put the origin. In this case, there are 2 or 3 other choices.

There is a balance point, typically near the wings, that could be the origin. The balance point, though is an aerodynamic concern, not really a mechanical concern. So the balance point is not that interesting for the mechanical design.

Most airplanes also have an assembly point just behind the wings. The 2 parts come together during assembly. This could work as a mount point style origin. But that assembly point is not natural, and does not exist on all airplanes.

The tip of the nose is another possible origin. The nose is a "leading edge" origin, similar to a mount point. It is where the airplane first touches air. So this is like a base plate origin, but peculiar to an airplane's purpose.

With the nose as the origin, every other measurement back through the plane has a real world meaning. It is the distance from the front. This is a human proxy for the distance from the cockpit and pilot.

3d Model Origins

The 2d drawn shapes showing up on the writing canvas are projections from 3d objects. The alphabet itself is on the silver and copper series of "birds." All of the birds have origin points in the center of the 3d space that surrounds those birds. This also includes the bird cages, which are symmetric along all 3 axis. Mount points for support threads break symmetry in the final parts, so final parts are not exactly symmetric.

Birds are using a variation on the symmetry rule for setting the origin. Though most of the birds are not exactly symmetric, their measurement system is based on distances out from a center point. The space around the birds, including the bird cages, is symmetric. So there is good reason to set the origin in the middle of all of these parts.

2d Drawn Form Origins

So when I first set the 2d system for drawn letter forms, I set the origin point for the 2 forms to be in the middle of a square. This was basically a 2d projection from the side of a 3d bird cage.

There are also a set of 3d models of the 2d letters which are essentially designed this way. These letters are used on the dogs under the Table Exhibit. So using the center as the origin for letter design seemed reasonable when I first starting working audit code in 2024.

As I was working on code this week I saw that there is actually a hidden mount point that is NOT the center. By shifting the origin to that mount point, most of the calculations involving the drawn forms of the letters gets simpler. Let me explain.

Writing Surface

The 2d letters are placed on the writing surface. That surface is a long series of audit squares. The first letter, placed on the first square, will align the left edge of the letter with the left edge of the first square.

All successive letters are placed on the writing surface by aligning the left edge of the next letter with the right edge of the letter already placed on the canvas. This is called kerning. Notice how kerning does not care about the center. It does care about the left edge of the next letter and cares about current letter shape.

Eventually the line of text fills, and we move to the next line, starting the process over again.

If we want to check audit, the audit marks are on the canvas cells and those cells have a repeating pattern which starts again at each left edge of the underlying line of audit squares.

If the system is always based on left edge, the absolute left edge of any letter in a line can be run through a simple modulus 6 division to learn the cell location within an audit cell where the letter begins.

No Use of Centers

Nowhere in this process is the center of the letter all that interesting. The geometric center is at least 1 calculation away from the left edge. We must look up the width, and then calculate the center, so 2 steps of work. Depending on why, we may then need to repeat the process again for a target.

Properly set origins will, in the general case, reduce the amount of calculation needed when dealing with any object. The proper origin for 2d drawn letter forms looks to be the left edge, NOT the center. Left edge based calculations are obviously better and match the theory of why setting origins is so important.

In the very rare cases when a center is needed, half the width is used to find the center. The only case where this matters so far is for general exhibits when showing a 2d drawn form on a square drawing canvas. This is only done when pointing back at the 3d exhibits. This is not used in normal writing.

Shifting Left

Once I could see this problem, I stopped and went through all the basic geometry and a set of other useful values and shifted origins to be the left edge, so the leading edge, or the nose cone, of each letter.

It was tedious work, but the results were very nice to see. We will eventually be running the entire manuscripts through audit code, and keeping the code as clean as possible is very important, for speed, and for trusting the answers.

Refactoring Code

I am also adjusting the files to put all geometry and audit related code into a separate library. This so it can be used for 1) manuscript wide audits, 2) build related specialized pages and also 3) in the app for generating detailed lexicon reports on the fly for specific words.

I don't normally worry to much about heavy notes. But this code may eventually get reviewed by others, so I am paying more attention than normal.

Specialized Fonts

The current work is generating blocks of SVG that can be displayed in web pages. This will become an appendix in the Paleo Bible. It will be used to show off all of the internal data surrounding every letter, audit pattern and all the related kerning pairs. That appendix becomes a visual way to test the code and verify all the design decisions used across the audit process.

I am also working out marginal notations, so subscript and superscript marks, that indicate how base words pass and/or fail audit. Those marks first show up in the appendix, so will be drawn along with large size letter and kerning related artwork using simple SVG.

For the main running text, SVG is not the best tooling. In that case we plan on extending our base Paleo font. That font work can only start once I am happy that the letter related audit marks work as needed to explain the nuances of the audit. More on this in future blogs.

Match Dates

This week we were watching for the replay of the last year of Asa and the first year of Jehoshaphat's reign. Asa was done on the 24th and then Jehoshaphat's reign started on 2026-04-25. The best headline at that point seemed to be out of Ukraine. Here is the link.

NATO Air Battle Against Russia

The link here is to a Military Summary channel video on Youtube. This is dated 2026-04-25. This particular video covers the details of a UK fighter jet operating over Ukraine territory very near Romania. Apparently that jet had taken off from a base in Romania. It was targeting Russian drones in the very south western corner of Ukraine. Unclear what the Russians were specifically targeting, nor why the UK would be fighting back.

This video dwells on this event because this appears to be the first formal attack by NATO forces against Russia. Nearly everything so far is NATO using Ukraine as a proxy. Not here.

As we now see Kiev as the venue for the start of Resurrection Sunday headlines following World War II, this venue appears more important than before. This may have been related to whatever reason the king visited Trump. Links on that below. Presumably European Zionists see fuel and funding running out with the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. So they need to act now. These 2 war fronts are the same, as Revelation might also suggest.

Iran War

The world has remained on edge over the possibility of a restart of the Zionist war against Iran. The Zionist war against Lebanon has continued from Israel without interruption. Trump was never able to get Israel to stop shooting. So the possibility of this being a 5 month war as matching Revelation still remains open. The Zionists have not stopped shooting the Shia.

The Iranian Foreign Minister visited Moscow. Iranians have been threatening to restart if the Zionists don't lift their blockade. Iranians have opened new supply lines on the ground via Pakistan. For ethical reasons they may wait until Trump shoots first, before firing back.

The nightly rallies in Iranian cities have continued non stop since this began on February 28, 2026. These rallies might be another way for counting the time for a 5 month war. We will see. It is still too early to know for sure.

As this blog goes out there are several strong rumors of a Trump order to restart war against Iran, either on Friday or Saturday, so by May 2, 2026. There are also reports that Trump waited until now to restart the war so his 60 day war powers clock that he has used for the first round is reset starting this weekend.

Zionists have no choice but to restart at some point. They need to control oil to pay for their empire. They cannot have an Iran government that they do not control via Zionist puppets like Trump himself.

Watch Dates

Peeking ahead, the next date from the king's series is 2026-05-19 with the replay of the last year of Jehoshaphat's reign. We will return to this as we get closer.

Peeking way ahead, the Assyrian Deportation will replay on or near 2026-11-09. This was the most important near term story in the general history of the kings.

Headline Review

The following caught my attention this week.

Trump's Assassination Attempt

The link here is to a Youtube video that details issues with the Butler assassination attempt against Trump during his campaign.

Nobody trusts Trump anymore. Suspecting secret games in public events has become a popular spectator sport. This link just for the record.

Other reports indicate this was an intentional ceremony anointing Trump as Aaron. See Exodus 29:20 and Leviticus 8:23. If staged, then this was an intentional Epstein class human sacrifice for Trump as a type of high priest. It was made to look like a miracle saved Trump. Instead it was another Epstein Class human sacrifice of someone in the crowd.

Will Be Shots Fired

Staged

The top link has a clip of Karoline Leavitt's remarks at the hotel ahead of the White House Correspondents’ dinner when there was yet another assassination attempt. This is called a "Freudian slip" and suggests she knew something was planned. Political theater to garner sympathy? Trump used this to defend the need for a ballroom, really the roof for some sort of AI control project at the White House.

The second link cites Larry Johnson's claim this was a staged event. He had multiple reasons, Larry was on the podcast circuit with more details.

Tehran Airport Reopens

The link here has a photo of the flight board at Tehran airport dated April 25, 2026. Flights have resumed, so Iran is returning to normal. Other reports suggest life in Tehran is mostly normal. Schools remain on remote learning for fear of surprise attacks by Zionists.

Lavrov: War On Russia

This link is to an Alex Christoforou daily news brief with details on Lavrov indicating the EU has declared war on Russia. This is an obvious truth. The point is the Russian government is now saying so explicitly. This would match the UK fighters working in Ukraine airspace. Watch for fireworks later.

Population Shift In Israel

This link is to a post on Telegram detailing the population shift in Israel. This is one of many sources covering this point. European Jews are leaving because of the war. The population is now majority Egyptian Jews. (They transliterate Mizrahim to just Eastern Jews, but we know better. This is the word for Egypt.)

UAE Out of OPEC

OPEC is located in Vienna, Austria. This is the international organization for the lost tribe of Jacob's side of Asher. Want to buy a tanker of oil? In person? Usually, you want to travel to Vienna for that. The reference for this is Deuteronomy 33:24, where Asher's feet will be bathed in oil.

OPEC is a cartel that limits supply in order to drive up price. In the real world, without a cartel, the price of products generally matches the "marginal cost of reproduction." This is a technical term from Masters Degree level Economics.

This means, amongst other things, that left to its own devices, the oil markets in the world should not generate excessive wealth because the price should approach the cost of oil coming out of the ground.

OPEC breaks economic theory in order to fund ultimately the entire Zionist western world. This is what Iran must accomplish, they must break OPEC. There are several different possible strategies for this. We will see what they ultimately do.

King Charles In DC

White House Beehive

This is a link to a short clip dated April 28, 2026. This is just a reminder for the record that the king visited Trump on this date. His speech was fun. But why did he feel the need to visit Trump at this time?

Most likely, this is a European Zionist meeting to deal with future strategy. Some high level issue that could not be handled any other way. Like Netanyahu's visits to Trump, the king is probably giving orders for war to break out with Russia here soon. Perhaps the king is replacing Netanyahu as Trump's handler.

The second link is the king with Trump and wives at the newly unveiled White House beehive. Hive is the symbol for the Hivite, or the serpent in the garden. This probably has some occluded meaning beyond the obvious textual references.

Iran War Strategy, 2019

The link here is to a full translation of a speech by Martyr Qassem Soleimani, months before his assassination, in May 2019.

The key point is the Iranian war strategy is to close the Strait of Hormuz as a way to bring down the west. This is a type of warfare aimed at bringing down the financial structure of the western world.

Oil profits are essentially captured by western bankers in order to fund the Zionist empire. No oil, or no oil cartel, means there are no excess profits available to fund the west. This is the way Iran can bring down the west. They have known it for a long time.

The UAE leaving OPEC, linked above, means they will price oil at or very near their own cost of production. Note this means very thin profits, so no excess funds to pay for the Zionist war machine.

Chinese Public Support for Iran

The link here is to a post on Telegram with a short video showing a crowd in support of an Iranian sports team in a Chinese stadium. The public around the world is on Iran's side. The Revelation passage related to Iran suggests the world will cheer when Babel is defeated. This link is an example of what will happen.

Merging Militaries

There is a bill floating around in the US Congress (HR8445) that would cover US Citizens serving in the IDF as though they were serving in the US Military.

This is starting to formally connect the genocide in Palestine to the US Congress, as if there weren't already enough ways to do that. This impacts how we think about stories in Revelation. Babel falls in various ways, including across the seas.

More Later,

Revelation Riddle

Phil Stone — Fri, 24 Apr 2026 21:20:09 GMT

This blog frames a riddle that once fully solved might interpret all of Revelation. Before that, recovery work status, especially problems with kerning, commas, and preparing hardware for audit. Finally, a headline review.

Paleo Bible Work

I have been continuing code work on a new Paleo Bible app. It may be ready for a first release in another couple weeks. We'll see. The code is being drawn from the earlier Paleo apps that were on the paleo.in website. Those apps were last worked on in the middle of 2024. We have learned much since then.

The first change has been to build out code support for 2 different audit patterns, what are currently being called the north and south patterns. Eventually one of these flips in boustrophedon style. That code is now mostly finished.

The second change is the code related to kerning. The shepherd's staff is tightly kerned throughout, but it does not cover all kerning cases. The code itself must handle the entire manuscript so it must handle all possible kerning values.

Kerned text is eventually tested against the audit canvas, so kerning is the step after the audit canvas and before full manuscript testing.

Ryan and I have both been working this problem. Ryan has been manually running important keywords, primarily names. I have been working the code to show off all kerning data configured in the software. This shows up in an appendix to the new app. (Some of this was done in the Lex app previously.) All current kerning pair data needs to be available for visual inspection as a way to check that the code is correct.

We need examples from real words to confirm we know the correct kerning related letter offsets. This is the data Ryan is currently generating. He is testing against words and phrases that are almost certainly inspired, so we are not accidentally building a system that runs against, say, Ananias' words.

In this kerning work we've run into several new insights that I want to share here for the record.

Commas

One morning I was in the shower thinking about the software I was about to go work on and I realized there may be a way for the Paleo writing system to express what in English is a comma. This would be a mid-sentence pause. This does not need any changes in the 3d system. But in the writing system it would be expressed as 2 Dot characters in succession.

Currently, 1 Dot marks a between word break. This is the equivalent of a space in English. So 2 Dots could separate words slightly more. This would be the natural way to express a comma. This is a difference in word spacing that would matter at the audit level, so the use of a comma would be caught as an inspired grammatical element.

This also relaxes the overall audit system, and will pass more text than previously. 3 units of between letter spacing is the marker for an inspired Colon, which marks end of sentence. We already understand that spacing.

Note also that 2 dots used horizontally as a comma would help explain why 2 dots vertically are used for a sentence marker. In situations where the text is written by hand, the 2 different marks are visually very different.

After a long discussion about this, Ryan started watching to see if he could find a use of a comma in his name related audit examples. He found such an example. Let me share it here for the record. Let me give this example in English because we cannot do paleo well in the blog.

"Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babel" is a phrase that is frequent in the text. All the words in this phrase pass audit. These words are reasonably complex and have fixed legal positions on the audit grid. The trick here is the name "Nebuchadnezzar" and the phrase "king of Babel" are only legal when they are 2 grid lines, so 2 dots, apart.

Instead of seeing this as failing audit, it can now be explained to pass audit, but with an inspired comma between the name and the title.

This was very exciting to see because we are starting to reason about the running language system and then explain what we are finding. The use of a comma between the name and the title is the same as might be seen in English.

Kerning Pair Ambiguity

As I was bringing up the code to look at all kerning pairs I eventually ran into a strange case. It shows up in the word "Babel." Ryan was later checking this word by hand which caused him to even find the example I just shared above dealing with the king of Babel. (There is a strange favor on our current work.)

In the word Babel, there is a kerning pair of Ba to Lu. Ba has a tail pointing to the right and Lu has a tail pointing left. So at the canvas center line, which is the Paleo location of the English base line, the Ba and the Lu have 3 empty audit grid locations. This is so even when there is no punctuation between these 2 letters.

This is not a conceptual problem with the language, but it does create visual distance between letters at the end of words like Babel. For the purposes of punctuation and audit control over the entire word, those 3 units on the grid must be empty in words like Babel.

The Ba and the Lu must separate another grid unit if the kerning is then capturing a Dot. This gap grows even wider with the other punctuation. You can imagine that if a single Dot has extra space, the other punctuation characters will also have extra space when they land between Ba and Lu.

This case is unusual. In nearly all other examples, the punctuation is squeezed tightly on the grid between adjacent letters. Punctuation is NOT squeezed tightly in this case.

Vocalization

We know from a prophetic dream when this work started that the punctuation functions acoustically to suppress the vowel of the last letter in the word before.

Babel, for example, is spelled Ba-Ba-Lu, but it is pronounced Ba-Ba-L. That trailing u sound is suppressed because of the punctuation that always follows. That lack of a trailing vowel sound indicates to the listener that this is the end of the word.

So if we find a word ending in Ba and the next word starting with Lu, then the vowel in Ba is going to be suppressed to mark the word break.

On the running canvas, we must add punctuation after the Ba and push the Lu away by 1 (or more) units on the canvas. In this case the punctuation characters are loose and not geometrically constrained by the geometry of the adjacent letters. Because it is acoustically modifying the Ba, it still must be adjacent to the Ba.

The Code Problem

The job of the kerning code is to take letter strings and compute grid placement for those letters. Once grid placement is known it can then be drawn on an audit canvas. More importantly, a kerned string can then be passed on to audit related code. The audit system cares about WHERE letters land on the grid, not just their order. Using location is the main way for software to sift out uninspired running text.

The kerning code left over from 2024 presumed fully constrained distances between letters. It was built from what we saw on the Shepherd Staff. That code was not written to track loose, so geometrically unconstrained, punctuation.

I am currently working towards updating this code, but it will be a few days before this is completely done. This is a conceptual rewrite, not a tweak.

After this week's work I am starting to see that there is quite a bit of nuanced beauty in this language system.

Prepping Audit Server

We started getting notifications that our version of PopOS is now ready to be updated. PopOS is a Linux distro maintained by System 76 located in Denver. For the past 3 or so years the team there has been rewriting the desktop for Linux. This is an impressive and difficult piece of work.

Like any massive software rewrite, it has taken longer to deliver than they had first planned. But, the results are well worth the wait and very impressive.

As many users of Windows are now leaving for Linux, PopOS is well positioned to benefit from that migration.

I last looked at this when I installed an alpha version of PopOS on Flash, our 40 CPU desktop machine. (Technically, it has the main board for a server in a floor standing case.) That PopOS early version had some sort of bug where every thread on that hardware hit 100 percent CPU utilization. Flash has since been sitting around, mostly frozen, for months.

This week, Ryan and I were able to get the new production version of PopOS 24.04 installed on Flash. This cleared up the 100 percent CPU bug that I'd found with that Alpha version. So that machine can now be used just like any server. But, there have still been screen related issues.

Ryan tested PopOS 24.04 on an old laptop. It took some special configuration settings to handle an old GPU. So we may be able to update our regular laptops here soon.

Flash started working correctly on screen with the same configuration settings, but it still has a problem which we think is related to a very old 4K monitor on what is now a very old GPU.

Our next step is to test this with a modern but less demanding 1080p monitor. I found a cheap monitor on Amazon, which came in Thursday this week. That new monitor still needs the correct plugs to draw power from the computer. So another order from Amazon will fix that over the weekend.

If this monitor does not fix this problem, we can still swap out the GPU. We have a more modern spare in the shop. We will see. In any case, Flash can now be used as a 40 core dedicated server, which is all we really need from that machine right now.

Getting this working is important for many reasons. We are not far from being able to run manuscript wide audits against our base Paleo texts. The new Paleo Bible app has 92 books that need to be run through audit related code. This code will check audit against every possible combination of words from the sequence of words in every verse across the entire set of available texts. If Flash cannot handle the work, there are another 48 CPU threads also available on the new desktop that I currently use in the shop. This should be enough. We can be patient.

Ethiopian Bible

Last week I shared about how Ryan added a printed copy of the Samaritan Pentateuch to his collection of printed Bibles. That Bible is the shortest canon and only covers the first 5 books in standard Bibles.

Based on feedback from a reader of the blog, Ryan has also added a printed edition of the Ethiopian Bible to his collection.

The Ethiopian Bible is the longest Christian version of the Bible, with 88 books in their standard canon. Ethiopia is probably the location of one of the Ishmael family of lost tribes. They may be carrying a witness to something that matters.

In particular, we are now watching for historical witness to ciphered texts. Ciphered texts may not have been lost to history. Let me explain this in a little more detail.

Joshua's Robe

The link here is to John 19:23 in the BRB. This is the point where the soldiers divide up Joshua's clothing, then cast lots over his robe.

The Robe itself may match Joseph's Robe, but it may also be symbolic for the base text and/or additional volumes. A clue that supports this contention is how those soldiers divided the rest of his clothing into 4 parts. References to 4, or lists of 4, are usually a marker for 4 layers of additional volumes found through ciphers.

This story can thus be taken as a parable. The main document, his robe, was taken by a lot. (It would end up in Rome, so to a Roman soldier.) The other 4 piles of clothing are also going to be divided. So the additional volumes are divided among the soldiers. This is probably symbolic of the lost tribes. So these volumes may have survived in history, but lost in the "houses" of the soldiers.

Let me suggest that once we do start recreating the ciphered documents, those recovered documents will generally match edited versions of those same texts that are lost out in the world. This story in John 19 is basically telling us that this must be so.

Some of those lost ciphered documents may have reached places like central Africa where they show up in modern libraries, like the otherwise strange books that make up the Ethiopian Bible.

By the way, there are also quite a few ancient books that float around loose in history OUTSIDE of standard canonical bibles. Ryan also has an extensive collection of reference works that carry English translations of many of those other known ancient writings. He reviewed those with me this week in order to help me understand what might be coming out of the ciphers.

We are trying to become generally familiar with these longer canons and known historical books so we are better equipped to see if ciphered documents were not actually lost to history, but hidden away in obscure and distant places.

Ciphered documents may also show up in some of the writings known to other Abraham based faiths. Iran, for example, may be carrying parts of this.

Public Attention On Religion

The war with Iran is causing widespread conversation about scriptural matters. There have even been comments in Podcast circles about how Hegseth and other administration officials are describing the war in Iran with Biblical references. (Even if they cannot quote the text very well.)

I have also seen this in various church circles, which I do not actually track very much, so this is a strange time. It is causing a great deal of stress and emotion in many places. Headlines are being interpreted through the lens of various families of textual interpretation. Of course the public texts have been edited, so these frames of reference are not all that useful.

Even Tucker has been trying to look at this Iran war through a Biblical lens. He is not particularly prepared for the task. He thinks conventional Christianity can explain what is going on. Tucker does not understand how Christianity is itself an edited step child of Zionism and that the texts of Christianity are unfit for his purpose.

Iran War In Revelation

In previous blogs on this Iran war, I have been making references into Revelation. The 5 month references in Revelation 9 are important in that they tie to Noah, either now or in 2029. Those references indicate that deep pits are how Iran seems to have found a way to defend itself against most Zionist attacks. If Iran can maintain political and military integrity, they can win, as the text suggests they eventually will. Though note that the first round of attacks as described in Revelation 9 tells us they will not fully defeat Israel.

Of course Iran will be attacked internally, politically. This appears the only way Iran can be defeated. There were several references here recently to Iran executing Zionist spies, this is an example of their internal problems. Trump also appears to have extended the cease fire in order to give Mossad and the CIA time to conduct a coup inside Iran.

In thinking about these many media references to Armageddon and Revelation I began thinking about the book of Revelation itself. I generally don't like going into that book because it exhibits several layers of editing. I just keep telling myself the audit is coming, keep working, and solve this problem once and for all once the audit is done. Flash will be given this problem as soon as the new audit code is known to be working correctly.

In previous blogs I have also surveyed Revelation and suggested that there are interpretive links that basically back up across the historical text, back to Eden, and then work forward. This is an internal system for finding matched stories, which is a first pass at understanding Revelation. That study is a text-against-text system for understanding the book.

I don't really want to go deep across the entire book until that audit work is done. But, I could also not stop thinking about certain structural features of the book which I have never noticed before. There appears to be a text-against-time study, which is what I am seeing now.

Let me lay out a possible solution to the biggest riddle in that book. It seems to indicate that Revelation has a primary application in a very narrow time in human history. Revelation may uniquely apply to the time we are living through right now.

Riddle Of Revelation

The link given here is to what is our current guess at the likely inspired start, at Revelation 1:9.

This likely inspired start of Revelation begins with John telling us that he was "in the spirit" on the "first day of the Sabbath." This introduction makes sense if he is on the first day of the 7th month holiday, the holiday of Tabernacles, also known as a Sabbath.

Greek based translations are a little different in the wording. In that case, John is understood as simply writing on the first day of a normal week.

Why would this introduction matter? Why does the reader need to know this timing?

I am learning to watch for tricks in the text where innocent introductions are really hidden interpretive keys that readers must not ignore. In the Zacchaeus story, Joshua is headed to Jerusalem. This is early in the overall parable, but telling us the punch line at the end is about the city of Jerusalem.

Revelation looks to work the same way. It looks like an unimportant step to open the book. But, the 1st day of the week has 1 powerful application at 1 specific prophetic time in all of world history.

The most important "1st day of the week" is Resurrection Sunday.

This is the day at the end of Joshua's time in the tomb. It follows Passion Week. This is the day when Joshua has gained the right to rule because he had been killed and had come back to life.

In recent blogs I have been explaining how that special day folds out to a 30 year interval that ends at the end of 13020, so about 1 year into a Noah's Flood replay that begins in February of 2029.

So John's introduction looks like the main interpretive key for understanding what follows in the Book of Revelation. But it has a narrow application in historical time. To understand this key we need to understand Resurrection Sunday itself.

Resurrection Sunday

The link here is to Luke 24 in the BRB. This is the last chapter of Luke. It contains the historical stories for Resurrection Sunday.

Resurrection Sunday begins when the women go to the tomb early in the morning. Perhaps just before the light of dawn. The calendar day itself is now about half over. There are about 12 hours still remaining in the 24 hour calendar day. The tail end of the account appears to drift beyond the end of that calendar day, into the following evening.

Placing in Prophetic History

This calendar day was the first day in the week AFTER Passion Week. It is the last day with day-accurate details from the week. So it is a natural tail on the events of Passion Week itself. Indeed, if we read through the account we see Joshua demanding a recounting of the events of that week.

This day is part of Joshua's ministry year, which was running at 30 historical years to the calendar day in his ministry. This particular calendar day aligns with 30 calendar years, the last of which is 13020.

Because this Luke account is starting at near sunrise, as prophecy for our modern time it is only interested in the 15 or so years that end on 13020. So roughly 13005 through 13020. (13005 is before day break.)

The main event at the tail end of this interval is Noah's flood. That is roughly starting in February of 2029. Very, very roughly, back up from February of 2029 by 15 years and find the start of this prophetic interval. This would be early in 2014.

If we go looking around 15 years before Noah we run into the Maidan Coup. This is when the European Zionists took over Ukraine as a first step to conquering Russia. They could then use Ukrainians as cannon fodder against Russia. That war continues now in Ukraine. This event is known on Zionist Wikipedia as the Revolution of Dignity. Here is the link for reference.

Revolution of Dignity

The newly elected leader in Ukraine rejected unity with the Zionist European Union and instead sought better relations with Russia. He had a mandate from his electorate for this work. The Zionists would have nothing to do with it and started a short civil war, known as the Maidan Coup.

The Zionists took over Ukraine by force. They started the war we know now in Ukraine. The Russians would quickly take back Crimea and eventually start a ground war to defend Russians trapped inside eastern Ukraine.

History will likely record that coup as the start of World War III. The Russians already count this as the start. In patience they are not fighting all that fast because they know this ends with a nuclear war. Most of Europe will cease to exist. Russian leadership is hoping something stops the European Zionists, like running out of fuel. (Russia cut oil delivered through Russia to Germany this week to help speed the end of the German war making industry. Iran is helping with this too.)

Luke Notes

Curiously, the name "Maidan" is playing to the "maidens" who went to the tomb early on Resurrection Morning. They knew something strange was happening, but they did not know where Joshua was to be found.

The women found the stone rolled away and an empty tomb. They did not find Joshua. Ukraine is mostly a unique dialect of Nazism. Kiev is no longer a city of Orthodox faith.

But important to note, Kiev has a famous system of caves. These match that empty tomb. One of the most important Orthodox monasteries is named for, and located above, those caves.

Kiev Pecharsk Lavra

This place was founded in 1051, so about 60 years from the arrival of Christianity in Russia. There are 2 cave systems below ground. They hold the remains of many famous monks from Eastern Orthodox Christianity.

That we would hit a headline at the tombs of saints is a major and important detail that helps affirm we are starting correctly. The Maidan Coup is resurrection morning.

The maidens, of course, found the tomb empty. The tomb could not hold him. In their shock, the women encounter 2 men who stood above them. Those men ask the women, Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here. He is risen.

One of the details from the 2014 coup was the sharp shooters on the roofs of government buildings. Those shooters were thought by many to be Zionists. So the women looking up is matched by the need to watch the roofs in Ukraine at this same time.

By now, so 2026, Ukraine has lost a huge number of men fighting against Russia. It is not a land of the living, but of the dead. It will be worse when the missiles, clothed in white, start to fly.

There are more riddles in that Luke 24 chapter. We must leave those for a future study.

Revelation Notes

So if we go back to Revelation, by Revelation 1:19 we find references to resurrection morning, a match to Luke 24. This is another internal clue that Revelation is written against Resurrection Sunday.

By Revelation 4:1 we find John is called up in order to be shown more things. This is like the 2 men in white who were above the women. Again, another match to Luke 24 and another match that indicates we are on the right path to solving the Revelation riddle.

Beware Time

There are many, many other riddles down through Revelation. An example would be Revelation 7, with the seal date list. We know those as history. They identify the tribes. See BibleTribes.org.

But there are complex ratios available to fit a tight 15 chronology for a possible complete application of the entire book. 12,000 days, for example, can go through the 2 Peter 3:8 ratio of 1000 to 1, so 12,000 become 12. Then we can go back through the 30 to 1 used for Resurrection Sunday itself. So the 144,000 can be 12 common years. So something like 2014 jumps to 2026. The lost tribes, all those on Jacob's side, are fighting against each other in Ukraine for 12 years. Status in the Ukraine war may be expected to change this year.

Wait For Audit

I want an audit before going into great formal detail on Revelation, but the general feeling across the culture that we seem to be on the cusp of something like Armageddon may not be all wrong. We may actually be living it out now, and it is starting to be felt by many across the world. More on this family of riddles in future blogs.

Match Dates

This past week we were looking for the end of 40 days of rain of Noah. The 40 day Iran war appears as the best match so far, though it was started and stopped 2 weeks early. The 2 weeks of cease fire at the end explains the offset.

We are still watching for a restart to the war, which would trigger stories from Revelation. As of the date of this blog, that restart does not appear to have happened. If this holds, then the 5 month references from Revelation 9 remain for a future time.

We are in a nervous pause, and there have been nearly daily attacks on shipping, which might become an otherwise mostly hidden fulfillment of a longer interval. This needs more time to decide what is going on.

Trump, or at least the Zionists, did blockade the entrance to the Strait of Hormuz. On the expected 40 day mark, at 2026-04-19, under their blockade, the Zionists did capture an Iranian cargo ship. This was a particularly strange episode, it took more than 6 hours. This long time span suggests nobody knew what to do.

Helmer With Nema on Touska

The link here is to the Youtube video of Helmer's weekly chat with Nima on Dialog Works. Helmer goes into the strange timing and explains what this says about decision makers in Washington DC. They apparently were deciding what to do back in DC across those 6 hours. Maybe nobody important could answer the phone in Israel?

Watch Dates

This blog goes out on 2026-04-24, the replay of the last year of Asa's reign. The following day, Saturday, 2026-04-25, is the replay of the start of Jehoshaphat's reign.

There is a planned meeting with the Iranian Foreign Minister in Pakistan on the 25th, but not with Americans. He is also scheduled to travel to other places, including Oman and Russia. This is not a negotiating delegation, so I would not expect much to change. But, we will see.

By early on the 24th, there have also been a series of warnings issued by perhaps 15 countries asking their citizens to leave Iran, suggesting the world knows the Zionists are about to start bombing Iran again. We will know better across the weekend how this plays out.

Headline Review

The following caught my attention this week.

More On Iran Rains

The link here is to yet another link highlighting the change in weather in Iran, apparently because weather modification radars were taken out in the war.

First Post on Vessels

First Photos

Top link was the first post I saw about Iran shooting at Indian vessels on April 18, 2026. This was US time, near the start of the 19th in Iran. 2nd link is photos. This preceded the USA boarding the Touska. This sort of small arms fire might be filling in across an otherwise apparent gap in the 5 month reference in Revelation. We cannot know for sure what might be going on prophetically for another few weeks. But this does land on the charted end of the 40 days of rain for Noah.

Touska

Pic

These links are the first posts on the Zionist attack on the Touska. Then pics. This was a container cargo ship sailing from China to Iran. Debate centers on what was on the ship. Either normal Chinese civilian cargo, or else rocket fuel. Take you pick, we are in the fog of war.

Here the blockade by the Zionists is starting to take hold. Oil through Hormuz effectively ends at this point. The link above with Helmer on Dialog Works is the best for understanding this event.

President of Argentina in Israel

This link is one of many that have been detailing the visit of Argentina's president visiting Israel. He has stated several times here recently that it is better to be alive and slave to Pharaoh than dead.

His position is why Pharaoh continues to rule. This is the opposite of Iran. Iran does not fear death. Iran can win, so they can end up alive and free from Pharaoh. Iran, of course, has dug deep caves, which helps.

Dead Scientists

There have been numerous reports recently of dead scientists, most working on alternative energy and related fields. These sorts of deaths come in waves. Every decade or so, the experts in these fields end up dead or missing. The link here is a little obtuse to the main point, but is interesting in how the government appears to be ill equipped for much of this study. It is a long form article on unz.com reviewing a recent video.

Biblical War

This is just another reference link on how US officials are describing the war in Iran as Biblical. If those officials knew the real story they would not be endorsing this war. Do they think Washington DC or Jerusalem will survive? Why do they think they have Joshua's favor in this war? They haven't read the book carefully enough.

Old Aramaic Prayer

This link is to an Aramaic Wire post on X. This details their oldest known prayer thought to have come in the first century. Building reasons to believe this is an old practice. They kept the edited text, not the inspired text. But still interesting to track this ancient branch of Christianity.

City Of London Pic

The City of London is inside the City of London. Got it? If you don't know the verbal game played by this Zionist headquarters, then this link will help. It shows a photo of the bigger city and then outlines the Levitical city within. This is similar to Washington DC, which was probably patterned after this City of London in terms of sovereignty.

First Warning: Leave Iran

This is the first of the warnings that I saw about leaving Iran. In this case on April 22, 2026, asking Americans to leave. This would become about 15 nations warning the same by the 24th.

Nimitz On Site

The link here details the arrival of the USS Nimitz to the Indian Ocean on April 23, 2026. This ship is thought to be needed for more Zionist attacks on Iran. It replaces the USS Ford. It had to travel around Africa. This would explain the Zionist side's need for delaying the end of the cease fire. It is a prize target should shooting resume.

Litani River Border

The link here is to a post on Telegram by Pepe Escobar. It shows the area taken by Israel from south Lebanon. The border is now set at the Litani river. Unspoken in most media circles is how this border change also changes rights to off shore gas fields, so this is a financial play in addition to territory.

More Later,

Crucifixion

Phil Stone — Fri, 17 Apr 2026 20:00:47 GMT

This blog deals with the meaning of Joshua's Crucifixion. Before that, some feedback from recent blogs. Finally, upcoming watch dates and a long war headline review.

Ishmael's Heirs

In recent blogs I have been exploring the general issue of finding another set of 12 tribes. These would be a set of countries that ultimately spring from Ishmael.

Theoretically, there should be another set of 12 nations that descend from Ishmael. At the same time, they should be prophetically picking up echos of Jacob's blessings over his own sons given at the end of Genesis. This would be like Jacob's heirs in Europe. Conceptually, the text is applying to all nations around the earth even though the text was written by heirs of Jacob.

I would expect Ishmael's tribes to follow the same Revelation 12 seal dates. I would also expect them to have national characteristics that can be tied back into the text.

My starting point for this is the Islamic world. The Revelation passages that appear to be starting up now in Iran mention the tribes from around the Euphrates, and call out the singular "unsealed" tribe, which would be Israel. These modern nations are obviously Islamic, so there is a religious tie in Ishmael's side like there is with Christianity in the Roman world. Those nations are also "sealed" so landing under the same set of seal dates as we already know in Europe.

Hagarism

It turns out there is a standard historical name for some of this. The term became the name of a book published in 1977. The book is no longer in print, most likely because it offended religious, probably Zionist, interests. In any case, the link here is to a Wikipedia article that summaries the book and introduces the historical use of the term "Hagarism".

Hagar, of course, is the mother of Ishmael. Before there was Islam, the general family of religions in that part of the world were identified in ancient writing by this term. So the religion of the heirs of Hagar, so the people who had some level of faith inherited from Ishmael and the promises to Abraham through Ishmael.

I do not believe a strict historical study would be the path to finding these specific tribes, but it does suggest we are on the right path. Thanks for the feedback on this interesting point.

Afghanistan

Ryan has been adding a few printed references to his collection of unusual Bibles. This so he has documented evidence where the text has been disputed in history. These disputes will probably show up in the audit work too.

This week he added a printed English translation of the Samaritan Pentateuch. It also has an English translation from Hebrew Pentateuch. These 2 texts are printed together side-by-side on the printed page. There is also special highlighting and extensive footnotes. That reference work is in English, but marks the differences in these 2 different ancient canons.

For our recovery work, this is important as it flags disputable points throughout the first 5 books of the Bible.

Remember, the Samaritans were the northern tribes. Joseph ruled the north, and was given Shechem by Jacob. This is known history to the modern Samaritans who keep this ancient text. They are preserving memory of that group of people. This is part of the background for the story of the Woman at the Well.

In surveying this new reference work, Ryan has been looking at the footnotes. In addition to calling out Shechem as the place given by Jacob to Joseph, there are other important notes.

One important foot note hinted at a tradition that Ephraim, so son of Joseph, as a tribe, was taken to Afghanistan. The "Af" in that modern nation's name is the "Eph" in the ancient tribal name. Afghanistan translates as something like the "land of Ephraim."

We may have found Ishmael's Ephraim, by name. More work to confirm seal dates for that geography. In any case, an interesting note to this work.

Path To 70

There is another point to note on this tribal study. The Vine object carries the flowers that map pairs of letters. So there are 12 flowers on the front.

These are like the 12 tribes. There is also a flower at the top, an odd one out.

So the 2 leaves for each of those flowers is now 24 nations. Add the odd one out at the top, so a 25th tribe somewhere. (Maybe Dan. Maybe Iran.)

The vine then has 10 more flowers. They are behind the front and deal with 3d models that are alternate solutions to 3d design issues. These additional 3d objects provide the parts needed to complete the sower and reaper.

Because there are 5 such additional models, there are 10 more leaves. So the 25 nations now becomes 35 nations. Remember, 1 nation per leaf. So are we done when we find 35 nations?

The table of Nations after Noah calls out 70. To reach from 35 to 70 means we are missing yet another factor of 2. Another doubling. Presumably the basic 12 is folding out following the Silver set of 3d objects to reach 35 and then the Copper set, which doubles the letters, is the path to reaching a full set of 70 modern nations.

The United Nations currently has 193 members. Presumably this is a splintering beyond a divine design goal of 70 nations on earth.

In any case, it looks to be theoretically possible to identify all 70 nations and eventually match them back to the original table of nations. All but Jacob's Benjamin, so all but modern Israel should eventually be redeemed.

Nehemiah's Commissioning

The link here is to Nehemiah 1 in the BRB. This is the start of the story of Nehemiah going before king Artaxerxes in order to be given the commissioning to go and restore Jerusalem's walls.

I have discussed this as one of the stories that we would expect to see replayed again in our modern era. This would mean someone commissioned by modern Iran in order to have some part in rebuilding modern Jerusalem.

This is the last formal, intergovernmental, event in the historical story, so I would generally guess to see this replay last in the modern history of Israel. So 1974 + 70 years = 2044 is a date to at least entertain for this event. (There is still much timeline work to do, which might change or clarify this timing.)

So the feedback this week brought up the point that Nehemiah is the cup bearer to the king. That office, cup bearer, is also part of the prophetic story that distinguishes modern Egypt from modern Israel.

We should note that the cup bearer is pharaoh's official who is restored to his position. The baker, of course, was hanged like Haman.

As nations, this story from Joseph's day is telling us that modern Egypt is the part of Benjamin, so Ishmael's Benjamin, which is not lost like Jacob's Benjamin, so Israel.

Pairing to Nehemiah

So what happens when we combine both of these stories? We may be able to sketch out what we might expect in terms of the future history of Israel.

It suggests that someone from Egypt, or Egypt as a modern nation, the cup bearer, formally goes to Iran and gets permission from a leader there to carry out reconstruction of Jerusalem's walls. Idiomatically this could mean reconstruction of Jerusalem as an entire city.

In the future chronology of Jerusalem, this should follow someone who has previously received permission to rebuild something at ancient mount Moriah. (What religion rebuilds there is determined by the outcome of war with Iran.)

In any case, matching Nehemiah to modern Egypt is a reasonable hunch as to what we may eventually see unfolding at the end of this crazy time in world history. Thanks for this feedback.

Problem of Sacrifice

In early 2016 Ryan and I were hosting a series of online meetings where we were reviewing our work to that point. I was doing a series of audio live streams where I was going through parts of our project and status.

I was running late, and so was preparing in a hurry. While preparing one of those talks I stumbled on Acts 15 and how that chapter is calling out the editors. There was a riddle there, each editor has an identifying letter.

That discovery changed the course of our work because we could become much more formal in our understanding of the edits in the text. The BRB/TT pair of apps that Ryan updates nearly every week is still in that line of reasoning.

The link above is to Acts 15:19 in the BRB, which is where that chapter provides a list that identifies the earlier 5 editors. That chapter also provides the letter for Ananias, the 6th editor of the New Testament.

The keyword, given for Solomon, is "sacrifices." This is where Acts 15 calls out the sacrificial system of Solomon as being an addition to the text. Any text that suggests sacrifice is a good thing should be considered a Solomon era edit and practice.

This means the entire sacrificial system of Jerusalem is false. It is NOT an inspired idea. Solomon introduced the practice, edited the text, including insertions from Abraham's day down through Moses. Later editors would elaborate the false practice of sacrifice in various ways. We see it still today.

So What Happened On the Cross?

As a rule for identifying Solomon, this verse in Acts 15 is simple and easy to understand. Remember, they were writing about how to refute the men who come down from Jerusalem and interrupt the work of the Apostles.

But without sacrifice, what was the purpose of Joshua's death on the cross?

In Christianity we are taught this was to appease an angry god. It was atonement for sin, it paid a sin debt. As believers we now come under that blood atonement.

There has always been some level of contradiction in this story. Real debts can either be paid OR forgiven. They are not paid AND forgiven. But these details miss the bigger point. Acts 15 tells us to stay away from the concept of sacrifice as a way to understand Joshua. Sacrifice is NOT a concept that is part of a real community of faith.

Ryan and I have struggled with this problem since that time in 2016 when we first understood the problem of editors. There have been times when Ryan has tried to cut out most of the crucifixion story. Indeed, Islam still cuts it out completely.

But, what we learned from that experiment is the text is not whole without the account of what happened at the cross. So we are left with the problem of understanding that historical event without using sacrifice as the divine explanation.

We can moderate the problem some when we note that the Jews were conducting a human sacrifice. (The Epstein class still conducts human sacrifice.) So that was the Jewish purpose. They would write in that this was to appease an angry god. That part we understand.

But what, exactly, WAS the divine purpose for Joshua's death?

The Shepherd and His Flock

The link here is to John 10 in the BRB. This story gives a parable about sheep and a shepherd. Joshua is the shepherd. We are his sheep. In that parable he explains that he lays down is life for the sheep. This is a sign of being a good shepherd.

It helps to remember that Benjamin, so the Jews, are the wolf. See Genesis 49:27. This is the primary predator of sheep. They are our earthly enemy. That same wolf is mentioned in this same John passage, see John 10:12. John 10 is explaining how Joshua defends his sheep from the wolf. So Joshua defends the sheep by laying down his life. This parable is not particularly clear about why that is important. Especially if this is not an atoning sacrifice in the Solomon sense of sacrifice.

If Joshua's death is not a sacrifice in Solomon's sense, what purpose did it serve that Joshua should die on a cross? In a fashion that the Jews would know of, and edit in, as an atoning human sacrifice?

A related question, Why was it so important that the Jews, so the wolf, would need to hide, through editing, the true purpose of Joshua's death? Let me explain what was going on.

Gaining Authority

Laying down his own life is how Joshua gained authority over the wolf.

But how? What authority did Joshua gain by his death on the cross? How does this benefit his sheep especially if this is NOT an atoning sacrifice?

The first point to remember is that he was only dead for 3 days. By Sunday morning he had gained something that he could use later against the wolf.

The grave could not hold him because he was not guilty of anything. This is useful to understand, but not the root of what he gained. Killing Joshua could not leave him dead because of his life. He was proving that point too. But this is not what he had gained on resurrection morning.

The authority Joshua had gained by resurrection morning was that he now had authority over the wolf. He could now kill the wolf without himself being guilty of breaking the commandment against killing. He gained the right to exterminate the wolf from the face of earth using a little understood right of defense. Maybe we should say a right of revenge.

Notice carefully that the Iranians are only defending themselves against the Zionists. They are only firing back. The are NOT initiating. They are carefully keeping records. Thus labels on rockets posted on social media. They are using their right of revenge, their right to defend themselves. They call it the "eye for an eye principle." This is their idiom for what I am discussing here.

Note The Timing

In Joshua's own day that revenge came in 70 AD when the Roman army marched in and burned down the city of Jerusalem. Why was it 40 years later when Joshua used his new gained right over the wolf? Simple answer: He was waiting for the guilt to spread, to increase, beyond the leaders and immediate crowds that had called for his crucifixion.

So what is going on now in the world?

In the flow of human history we are now at Resurrection Sunday. For the past 200+ years we have been slowly replaying passion week. Over the past 200+ years the same Zionists who crucified Joshua 2000 years ago have now gained blood guilt from millions of people their vassal armies have killed.

Nearly every war has been caused by Zionists. They have consolidated their power over most of the earth. They are working to establish a world capital in Jerusalem. Their goal is nearly reached. Only a few countries still remain. Trump still needs to conquer Cuba, for example.

We are now to the point where the story of Zacchaeus matters. I touched on this recently, but let me dwell on the punch line.

Zacchaeus

The link here is to Luke 19 in the BRB. There are 2 stories in that chapter, they begin with a visit to Zacchaeus' house. Then it turns to a parable. The parable is about the unfaithful servant. So the wolf.

It ends with verses 26-27. "He said to them, I say to you, to everyone who has will be given, and from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away from him. However, those enemies of mine who did not want me to reign over them bring and kill before me."

The seals are what are given. They mark tribes. That seal is to be taken way. Jacob's Benjamin becomes Babylon.

Bringing his enemies before him is the ingathering we see in modern Israel starting especially in 1948. But it was not yet time. 1948 was the replay of Joshua being put into the tomb. It was a story from late in Passion Week. In the flow of human history, Joshua was not yet out of the tomb.

Now is the time when Joshua is out of the tomb. We are in the prophetic window of Resurrection Sunday. We still have another few YEARS, so it is not finished this year, but we are watching it happen now.

This is why, in Zacchaeus' story, Joshua was headed to Jerusalem. Joshua has business in Jerusalem. He is going to use his right to defend his sheep and kill the wolf.

Iran seems to be the current main agent for this. Russia and China and a few others should be expected to join in at some point before the end of 2030. Everyone else needs to see and learn from Iran's courage.

Jesus

Common war propaganda against Iran points out that Islam accepts Jesus as a prophet, but Islam does not accept the New Testament crucifixion story. So Zionist propaganda says to support Israel, Pharaoh, instead of Iran.

If you think the "atoning blood of Jesus" is central then you would side against Iran. But, there is the Acts 15 side of this. Joshua was a human sacrifice, to the shame of Zionists. This was by design to gain power over the wolf, so power over the Zionists.

It is possible that Islam's position might be a memory of a Testimony based form of early Christianity. Early believers would not have explained the crucifixion as a sacrifice.

Instead of correcting the matter, that tradition may have had to simply skip the whole subject of the crucifixion of Jesus. Why pick a fight with Zionism when it was not time? In any case, this point of dispute between the major religions may exist because of the New Testament editing by Ananias and how Ishmael's heirs coped with that problem.

We will continue to watch headlines out of Iran. Stopping for the cease fire gave many military commentators the idea Iran had lost. Maybe so. Maybe Iran is different. We need to watch and see. There is good reason to think Iran may be different.

Watch Dates

There are 2 days coming up in the next week that are of interest to us now.

13017-02-27 (2026-04-19) is the last day of the 40 days of rain in Noah. This date is calculated on a rerun of Noah, but 3 years earlier than Noah+7000. This is a likely Noah related prophetic date run postulated from the 3 year civil war after the death of Solomon.

These 40 days have been matched by 40 days of war between Zionists and Iran. The bombing was of the correct number of days for rain, but it landed 2 weeks earlier than we would have expected from the simple chart.

We are currently in a 2 week cease fire, which may explain the early start. So we have credit for 40 days that grants Iran a breather because there is many more weeks to go.

That cease fire is expected to end on Tuesday, April 21, 2026. Zionists cannot keep promises, so we might look for the fighting to resume around our expected date, the Sunday after this blog goes out.

This particular date is important for determining if we are in the 5 months given in Revelation 9:5. If air and missile bombings resume, then this may be an exceptional rerun of Noah where the bombing component goes beyond 40 days.

Remember, Noah in the 1991 Iraq Desert Storm war saw an air war of 40 days, then a ground invasion. Then it was over. That was a normal rerun of Noah.

If bombings against Iran and missiles from Iran resume at around these dates we would expect them to continue for another 150-40=110 days. The terminal date for that would be 13017-07-17 (2026-08-07). It would probably be best if the exceptional Noah was in 2029, but we will see.

There has been many reports of a nearly continuous flow of American assets into the Middle East. This so the USA can fight for Israel and can attempt to take Iran's oil fields. These are generally located on the mainland to the east of Kharg Island. Trump's been speaking about taking Iran's oil. But, he may have other goals.

The pattern of Noah in 1991 really does want a ground war to start this coming week. In the 1991 replay American troops conducted a ground war of 100 hours and were active in Kuwait for about 10 days. At the end of 10 days they began returning home. Ground war intervals and return dates are NOT on the actual timeline of Noah, so this replay of Noah is probably different.

13017-04-02 (2026-04-24) is the prophetic replay of the last year of Asa's reign. This, of course, is calculated within the replay of the life of Joshua when offset by 2000 years. This date is the Friday after this blog goes out. The following day, so Saturday, is the replay of the first year of Jehoshaphat's reign. These king related stories seem to inform a plagues rerun. This seems early for a shift off the plague of Arabs, but we will watch headlines to understand this better.

Note the next plague is of Livestock. This can be financial or else related to transportation or else related to farming. Oil in above ground storage is expected to run out across the world in mid June, 2026. This will be a plague on livestock in the herding and farming senses of livestock.

Shop Work

I am in the shop this week, but mostly working on software related to the audit. More in future weeks.

Headline Review

We are in a war gap because of the 2 week cease fire. As I write this, Trump's side says he has a peace deal with Iran. The Iranian side says no, that war will return. No way to know for sure who's side will be correct. If earlier speculation about a Zionist coup in Iran is correct, then no more war.

We will learn this next week who speaks truth. There has been much discussion about the war so far and how it might develop going forward. We start there.

Nima/Mirandi: Pakistan Talks

The link here is to a Dialog Works interview on Youtube. Prof. Mirandi was at Islamabad for the talks between Iran and Vance. In this interview he gives a few details about what was going on in the room.

There was really no normal delegation on the Zionist side. (Zionists are not agreement capable.) Vance was frequently on the phone and eventually Vance walked out. The Iran side was rightly worried about assassination.

Let me note that in high-value deals there are usually 2 levels of meetings. The technical side deals with the legal matters and details. Executives usually deal with conceptual issues. The Zionists brought no technicians to the talks because they had no intention of making a deal. They did not need the lawyers. They were always going to say no. They were probably looking to kill the Iran side.

Nima/PCR: Fight To Death

This link is to a Dialog Works podcast from this week. Paul Craig Roberts is on with Nima. Paul schools Nima on how this is now a fight to the death. The Iranians should not have agreed to a cease fire. There is no longer any compromise possible because the Zionists want Iran gone. The only question is the schedule and who ultimately wins. Nima does not have enough experience to know how this works. Roberts was caught off guard and could have said more.

Robert Page on Diary Of A Ceo

This podcast discusses the war strategies that are available to both sides in the Iran war. The first 20 minutes or so you can hear in this conversation the war strategy implied by the Revelation 9 passages that deal with the abyss and missiles targeted at Israel. The rest of the podcast is grim. There are no good ways out. The good professor thinks voting can help. This is a religious problem, so voting does not work.

Killing Negotiators

The link here is to a post on X that cites a Washington Post article dealing with death threats to Iranian negotiators. Zionists are not agreement capable. Even if a settlement is agreed, they will never keep their side. Negotiation with Iran is mostly a chance to kill Iranian leadership. The Iranian side is slowly figuring some of this out.

Apologies to the Pope

The link here carries details of the Iranians defending the Pope against Trump. The American public is also mostly on the Pope's side.

Pics of POWs

More evidence that Iran has American POWs already. Ground invasion will create many more. Canon fodder for Zionists. This is a religious war.

Netanyahu Rules

The link here with details of how Pharaoh rules. Note this new version of Netanyahu is much healthier than the man who visited Trump in 2025. I wonder why he now has a young man's eye lashes? Is he wearing mascara?

Weather Radars?

Early Iranian bombing took out American Radars. Seems the storms that I covered in previous blogs may have been because those were weather related radars that were now out of service. Interesting idea. This would be a different cause for rain than taking out cloud seeding flights.

Trump As/Is Antichrist

The link here is to a post on Telegram that shows Trump's AI generated blasphemy of himself as Jesus. It bothered nearly everyone who knows what is going on. Trump may now be the "man of lawlessness" or the "Antichrist." I would reserve those terms for leaders in Israel. But Trump is at least a disciple of those more important figures.

Orban Defeated in Hungary

The link here is to an Alex Christoforou daily news brief. He starts with Orban's defeat in Hungary. Alex covers many of the details. This is the Zionists consolidating power in Europe in order to go to war with Russia here soon.

The open question right now involves the Zionist war fronts in Europe and against Iran. Are these 1 continuous war? Or does Europe wait for later? (Say the 2029 run of Noah but in Europe?)

The Europeans do not have enough weapons for a full on war with Russia. But 3 years from now this may be different. (So on the Noah+7000 timeline.)

Possible Arab at Al-Aqsa

The link here is to a post on Telegram with a short clip of Givr at Al-Aqsa. Getting ready for a temple? Go for it, sir.

International Debanking

Bank accounts are not really money. They are promises of Zionists. Sometimes they break promises. Why should we be surprised?

Fighting Inside Israel?

In the 2008 run of the plagues, the Plague of Arabs was a change in the government leadership. The link here shows some evidence there is a similar fight going on now inside Israel. This may be evidence that plague is now coming to a close.

Ground War Coming

This is a post on X from Daniel Davis. His sources expect a ground war against Iran very soon. Watch this coming week.

More Flights

A post on Telegram with some recent flight stats on arming for ground war with Iran.

Flight Trackers

This link is to a post on X with a composite of the flight tracking radars showing equipment being moved into position for a ground war against Iran. Again, history from 1991 would watch for a ground invasion to begin soon.

Possible Plague Headlines

Swarms of Bees

Israel has been hit with massive swarms of bees. This is what happens when you uproot Olive Trees in the west bank. Those bees no longer have a home, nor food.

This is being called a biblical plague. This does not look like correct timing, but it is a possible plague of gnats and/or flies which we know of as Arabs. Nature's revenge.

Navy Food

This is one of many posts with a photo of food on the USS Abraham Lincoln. The principle in play is you reap what you sow. Sow famine, reap famine.

Tech Links

This war is different than nearly all previous wars in that we live in a connected, high-tech, world. Our devices are part of the Zionist battles.

Lebanon Map

The link here is to a post on X with an Apple Map screen shot showing Southern Lebanon without any towns. US Big Tech is Zionist too. No reason to use this company's products. The other big tech companies are also trouble. Apple looks to be an accomplice to genocide. They are wealthy enough, they should rebuild those now missing towns that they wiped off their map.

Spyware in Phones

The link here is detailing government level bans on Apple phones because of Israel spyware. The same must be going on across the industry, Google will be no better. (Was it the Patriot Act, after 911, that demanded this?)

Computer Security Issues

This link is to a Rob Braxman Tech video on Youtube. Seems AI was used to look for back doors in most operating systems. It found thousands. There are so many back doors that they had to instead order those systems to fix their bugs before they release that back-door finding code.

This begs questions relative to our work. Should recovery be done offline?

The main point for me is that the update cycles for fixing these bugs will make most operating systems unstable for maybe a year. Also note, Braxman does not acknowledge that these back doors are often placed by orders from government. So new back doors must be created when the known back doors are closed. AI might break through those too.

This blog is finally back to more normal blog length.

More Later,

Details On Benjamin

Phil Stone — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 21:12:48 GMT

This blog explores new insight on Benjamin in light of Ishmael's heirs, especially Egypt. Before that, status on audit and recovery work. Finally, a headline review.

Fixing Audit Problems

Since we started working on audit several years ago, there has been some outstanding issues with words which do not pass the audit pattern.

The words on the Shepherd's staff all pass audit fine, which is our source of confidence in the entire system. But, there have been some important words, like names in key genealogies, which do not pass audit as we would expect.

There are several different possible answers to this problem. But we could not really go any further with the audit work until we understood what we were missing with this problem.

A Second Pattern

Ryan woke one morning here recently with a strong hunch that there might be a SECOND audit pattern. His hunch involved a second use of the Qu-Map as is already being used in the audit on the shepherd's staff.

This has powerful implications. A second use of the Qu-Map creates a second pattern for audit. In some sense it relaxes the fundamental constraint of the audit itself, since words now have 2 different audits that they might theoretically pass.

Ryan went back to the original Inkscape files and tested his hunch. He found that most words that fail the first pattern will pass the second pattern. He found many words pass either audit pattern. He also found the second pattern was also eliminating inserted vowels.

From prophetic words while at Virginia Beach, we knew to focus on names. For us this means to look carefully at the names in the early genealogies of Genesis. So Ryan has been manually working through that long word list. There are a few words with disputable spelling, but these are rare. We are now able to see most words passing individual audit, just as we would expect.

Which Audit Where?

With a long and growing list of words that pass audit, we needed to understand what it means to have 2 different audit patterns. Our best guess is that alternating rows of text are alternating the 2 audit patterns.

This strongly suggests the inspired text is naturally written in Boustrophedon. For those who do not know the term, here is the link to the Wikipedia article on this well known but ancient writing style.

Boustrophedon Writing

This article shows how boustrophedon writing alternates writing direction on every other line on a page of written text.

This means the reader's eye does not need to "fly back" between rows of text. The reader's eye simply goes down 1 line and then starts reading back in the opposite direction.

The Wikipedia article linked above also points out that early Greek was written in this style. Early Greek is derived from Paleo. Early Greek is another witness to Paleo. So this link to Greek also suggests Paleo was originally written in Boustrophedon style.

Etruscan, the predecessor to Latin was also Boustrophedon. Etruscan is the link between Paleo and Latin. So Etruscan is also suggesting Paleo was written in Boustrophedon style.

That article also points out there are a few other known ancient scripts that in history were always written in this style.

You can explore that page and see some photos for examples of this style of writing. One, in particular, is interesting to look at.

Sabaic

The link here is directly to a Wikipedia photo of a Sabaic inscription. This is another language derived from Paleo. The Paleo letter Ve is still perfect in this ancient script. The Dot and Colon can also be clearly seen, though with small lines.

To see how boustrophedon works, look at that inscription for the capital letter B. This is a morph from the Ba Paleo letter. There are enough of these letters on that inscription that you can see how the B faces in alternating directions on alternating lines.

As the general tendency across time was to write all text in the same direction, this inscription is another witness to how Paleo was likely written in Boustrophedon style. Of course, the letter forms were already changing by 1000 BC when this particular inscription was thought to have been carved.

When I was first working out the letter forms I found many other examples of Paleo letters carved in stone in Boustrophedon style. So this is not much of a surprise that we would have 2 audit patterns that would support this style of writing.

An Early Dream

When I first started working on Timeline stuff 25+ years ago I had a series of very strong prophetic dreams. As a set, they were what drove me to quit my job and do this work full time.

In one of those dreams I was in an audience with many other students seated beside me. Joshua (Jesus in those days) was on the stage apparently teaching a class.

Joshua was behind a piece of glass. He was writing on the glass and the audience was reading on the opposite side of the glass from where he was writing. I had never seen such a thing. Unlike a modern professor using a White Board on a wall, Joshua' face was always towards the audience. He could write while maintaining eye contact with the audience.

That sort of glass setup now has a name, they are called "light boards" which are similar to white boards. They are a very nice tool, but light boards require the presenter to write English backwards so the audience on the other side of the glass can read English as normal. This is not a natural way to write, it takes skill, and only a few teachers can use a light board.

Revolution Light Boards

The link here is to a page on the website of a company that sells light boards. You can see what they look like. They are not cheep. I have seen Youtube videos on how to make your own. Making a light board by hand requires some wood working skills, especially use of a router.

The frame around the glass has an embedded LED strip. The light is captured inside the glass. White board pens are used to write on light boards. The ink on the glass captures and reflects out the light that is otherwise inside the glass. So the ink on these boards lights up.

Dr Sten Ekberg has a Youtube channel where he regularly uses a light board. I went searching for an example of one of his videos so you can see it in use. Link below. He is likely using the equivalent of one of the biggest boards from the catalog page above. Sten's light board is big enough that the frame is outside of the field of view of the camera.

Signs of Heart Failure

The content of this video is not that important. (Unless, of course, you are showing signs of heart failure.) In any case, you can safely scroll to the 3 minute mark and then start watching. He has a Power Point presentation on the wall behind, which he was following from the start of the video.

Then Sten turns to the light board in front. The frame is not visible. The video camera has been set to hide the frame.

In order to write English, Sten must write BACKWARDS. Reading and writing backwards is an eye/brain health issue that some people must learn in order to handle eyesight issues. Sten was an Olympic athlete and I suspect he learned to do this as part of his training, but I do not know for sure.

Some light board setups run the camera through a video converter that reverses the scene. A video reversal allows anyone to use a light board while writing normally. But, such presenters cannot have a live audience. Video reversals also show up as artifacts in the video. Those artifacts include reversed buttons and reversed pockets on the presenter's shirts.

Sten is not using a video flip. The proof is how the power point behind him is still the correct orientation. His shirt buttons are more evidence he is not doing a video trick. This man has some reverse writing skill.

Joshua's Writing

OK, so going back to the dream of Joshua 25+ years ago. Joshua was using a light board for his class. Question: was Joshua writing backwards so his audience could read forward?

In the dream Joshua had not started writing. He held his pen up and was ready to write. So I did not see Paleo letters. At the time I had no idea I would one day be working with language level issues at all, so such writing would have made no sense.

In any case, the normal problems of light boards go away with the use of boustrophedon writing.

If the Paleo Language system is boustrophedon, then EVERYONE who knows how to read and write is able to write on glass. Anyone, on either side, who sees the writing, is perfectly able to read it. Anyone, on either side, is also perfectly able to write it. Each row of text simply changes direction.

That dream was pointing at what we are working on right now. Each row has a slightly different audit and is written in the opposite direction to the row above.

Because essentially all computer systems are NOT boustrophedon, we will be doing audit work by compensating the second audit. This gets done by tracking line breaks and adjusting the governing audit pattern. There will eventually become an issue of figuring out what exact pattern is used for the first line of writing.

Dyslexia

Years ago we had some friends with a daughter with dyslexia. The doctor insisted their daughter learn to read through a mirror. Being forced to read English right-to-left, upside-down, and upside-down and right-to-left, is what healed the dyslexia.

So finding evidence that the text is naturally formatted in boustrophedon style means the inspired manuscript was intended to be non-injurious to the human brain. Various miracles dealing with restored eye sight in the text may be indicating a shift from single direction Hebrew to Boustrophedon Paleo.

Complex Page Layout

In our discussions surrounding this problem, we found evidence that the overall page canvas is at least theoretically able to carry complex layout control. So the inspired text may have indicators of intended page layout, such as poetry formatting.

More on this as we get the needed tooling in place. The thought here is that easy-to-follow page layout as seen in modern bibles, like in the BRB, may be encoded into the inspired document itself.

Sailing

The link here is to a Youtube music video of the 1980 hit song "Sailing" by Christopher Cross. This was released as a single and remained top of the charts for 1 week. It is out of the genre now called "Yacht Rock." At the time it was called "Soft Rock." The Yacht Rock genre was probably named in part because of this particular song.

This song appears to be a prophetic story about the audit pattern of the canvas the manuscript sits upon. Sailing, itself, is like becoming a walk off, able to sail to Eden. The song is about how that happens.

To see this better, turn on closed captioning in that video. Then note that "Paradise" and "Never Never Land" are synonyms to Eden. In the song "canvas" represents the ship's sail, but it is prophetically the audit canvas used by inspired text.

As the song explains, "The Canvas can do miracles, just you wait and see, believe me."

The wind, of course, is of the wind so spirit of Joshua.

Fantasy will be the ciphers. Another line from the song, "Every word is a symphony", so every word ciphers to many more words like a symphony with many musicians.

This is a fun theme song for the work going on now.

Recovery Work

Ryan has been working with Inkscape for his current audit testing. He is ready for more extensive tooling.

So, this week I did a survey of our bible manuscripts and related apps. With discovery of the second audit pattern, I am now happy to just use Aramaic/Syriac as the starting point for the audit. I have a pretty clear sense of what is needed to make this work against the base texts and then out into an app. So I am turning to the tooling needed to start tackling the text itself.

I have dropped the 4 older audit related apps that were linked off the main page of paleo.in. These were put online in the middle of 2024 when we last looked at this problem. They were marked as previews as we were starting to piece together how to solve this problem.

Once we are ready to release something, replacements for those older apps will be put online. Our current plan is a single Paleo Bible app and a single paired Paleo Testimony app. The lexicon function will be in an appendix. The Syriac to Paleo conversion will not have an independent app. The Verse Reader app picks up the ASPI text which previously had its own app. The VR is updated this week with the ASPI text. This tracks vowel marks as circles in Paleo.

In the past we have focused on merging Syriac Manuscripts. This seems a waste of time, adding another layer of abstraction to an already difficult problem. Problems that don't solve directly by the audit can be chased down in the Verse Reader. In that VR tool, other Syriac, Hebrew and Greek manuscripts can be consulted in order to solve whatever problems may come up.

Our starting texts will be an 1883 printing of the Syriac OT and a 1905 printing of the Syriac NT. Those will be converted letter-for-letter to Paleo. The Paleo Bible app will use options in the options menus to control display of how the audit is solved in various ways across the text. The Paleo Testimony will be only the audit passing manuscript.

These new apps will go online once we have something interesting enough to share. Much more on this later.

Recent Blogs

The last two blogs have been dealing with the lost tribes of Ishmael and the problems with the tribe of Benjamin.

Ishmael's heirs should have a hidden additional set of modern matched tribes identified by the same list of seal dates found through Revelation 7. This 2nd set of tribes should be outside of Europe. The discovery of the past two weeks is that the Revelation 7 seal date list should eventually identify pairs of document signing events. One document should be found involving Europe, and the other document should be found outside of Europe, somewhere in Africa and/or Asia.

The documents on Jacob's side, so the European side, are currently known and documented on BibleTribes.org. So mostly the European side is known. What remains is finding Ishmael's side. But, there is now an open issue with Benjamin as documented on that website.

Benjamin

The other problem from the past 2 weeks is that we should identify modern Israel as a prophetic reincarnation of ancient Babel. So ancient Babylon.

The editors of the text came from the Jebusites who replaced Jacob's Benjamin after the end of Judges. The editors and their communities are known as Babel. Their approach to life follows the Serpent or Hivite in the Garden of Eden. They built the Tower of Babel. They controlled ancient Jerusalem. They controlled the New Testament era Jerusalem. They control modern Jerusalem. They control the modern world through Zionism with all of its secret activities.

The patterns of Egypt show up cross the time of the Jerusalem Kings, indicating that those Jews have a heritage and patterns that start in Egypt and then arrives in Daniel's Babel. The plagues on Egypt overlays to the Jerusalem kings, as we are following now. Those dates seem to be working just fine. They stretch out to other places, like the USA, where Zionists have special power as foreign agents.

This identification, of the ancient Jews and modern Israel to Babel, seems quite sound. There are plenty of stories and evidences that this is correct. So what are we to make of the 1974 seal date for Benjamin?

The 1974 Seal Date

When we look at the Seal Date for Benjamin, in January of 1974, we find modern Israel signing a document with modern Egypt.

Modern Israel already has a prophetic identification. Jacob's Benjamin was lost before Samuel's day. Modern Israel is the dead corpse of Jacob's Benjamin. It is Babylon.

So why is that date still pointing at Modern Israel? Prophetic Babylon is signing on the Israel side. So who is signing on the other side? Who is modern Egypt?

It looks like this modern Israel/Egypt prophetic document from 1974 is marking, and identifying, Ishmael's Benjamin which is located in modern Egypt.

Modern Egypt is Ishmael's missing prophetic tribe of Benjamin. If this is correct, we may be looking at our first clearly identified lost tribe of Ishmael, Ishmael's Benjamin.

Joseph in Egypt

Because of the complexity of Babylon for Jacob's Benjamin, the text seems to take some care to explain the differences between modern Egypt and Benjamin There are a few key stories that help drive this point. Let me review them here.

Benjamin's Gift

Benjamin is the son of Jacob that he kept back from Egypt. The normal narrative is that Jacob is afraid of loosing Benjamin, just like he lost Joseph.

Joseph works against Jacob to get his brother Benjamin brought down to Egypt. Once they finally meet, Joseph provides Benjamin with 5 pairs of garments and 300 pieces of silver.

Why is Joseph favoring Benjamin?

Because there is some sort of affinity between Benjamin and Egypt. The 1974 seal date suggests this. Joseph is confirming it for us.

Benjamin is being setup by Joseph to be involved in Egyptian high society. Joseph sees in Benjamin the same sinister patterns as are found in the rulers of Egypt. To be part of it, Benjamin needs to dress the part and have the money he needs to be part of the Egyptian elite.

We see this later. The remnant of Benjamin ruling in Jerusalem takes on the plagues of Egypt.

It may also be the case that heirs of Benjamin were actually ruling Egypt during the time of the plagues on Egypt. This would be at least until the Arab took over. Even that plague of a great Arab suggests the previous Pharaoh's were familiar to readers, by implication either out of Joseph or out of Benjamin.

This may also explain the faction that Moses deals with once out of Egypt. Benjamin was part of the ruling class of Egypt itself, same as today. That faction wanted to overthrow Moses. They ended up instead falling into the ground, buried alive.

Cup Bearer And Baker

The link here is to Genesis 40 in the BRB. This is backing up 5 chapters. It is the story of Joseph giving prophetic words over 2 of pharaoh's officials, the cub bearer and baker. They had been thrown into the prison that Joseph was running.

The cup bearer shares his dream. Joseph explains that in the future the cup bearer will be restored to his position. Seeing that this will turn out well, the baker shares his dream. In his case, the future is not so good. The baker is eventually hanged, like Haman.

This chapter appears to be a long detailed parable involving a prophetic problem with Egypt. Egypt is like a shared space between Ishmael's Benjamin and Jacob's Benjamin. As future tribes, they are each pictured as Pharaoh's officials.

One of Egypt's officials will be restored, the other will be hanged. So the Ishmael side of Benjamin will be restored. That Ishmael side of Benjamin will end up ruling what is now modern Egypt. The Jacob side of Benjamin, so modern Israel, will be hanged.

These details from Genesis are ultimately the back story of the Israel/Egypt seal date in 1974.

Zacchaeus The Tax Collector

The link here is to Luke 19 in the BRB. This is the start of a pair of stories involving Zacchaeus the tax collector. Verses 1-10 introduce the man. He is a tax collector that Joshua finds while passing Jericho. Zacchaeus is "small in stature." Joshua finds him in a "leafless fig tree." He then stays with Zacchaeus where the details get interesting.

Zacchaeus is a tax collector, but he asserts strongly back to Joshua that he has extorted nothing. His hands are clean. Joshua accepts that testimony. Joshua then declares salvation has come to his house, and that Zacchaeus, or his house, is also a son of Abraham.

The less well documented, so small in stature, son of Abraham is Ishmael. We are reading a parable about one of Ishmael's lost tribes. Those tribes are still sons of Abraham. Now the challenge is to figure out which tribe. Which tribe does this parable address?

The famous group to have "passed Jericho" was the heirs of Jacob as they were coming out of Egypt. This is a hint that we are looking at Egypt, so Benjamin.

The job of tax collector is hinting that this is more precisely a parable about the patterns of Egypt, where tax was first collected. Tax is of course a fractional slavery system. We see it now throughout most of the world. So this is also hinting at a parable about the tribe of Benjamin.

Ten Minas Parable

The link here is to Luke 19:11 in the BRB. This is still at Zacchaeus' house. Joshua is now going to tell a parable, because they were near Jerusalem. Joshua has now identified Jerusalem as the target for his parable. This is where he was traveling, but it is also were he is targeting this parable.

This parable is ABOUT Jerusalem, so Benjamin. Now Joshua is going to speak about Jacob's Benjamin, a contrast to Zacchaeus as Ishmael's Benjamin.

Like the cup bearer and baker, Benjamin is lost on Jacob's side and restored on Ishmael's side.

This parable begins with 1 son of a great family who went to a distant land. This would be Abraham sent out from a great family (Noah, or perhaps Persia/Iran) to a distant land, eventually ancient Canaan. This is a setup that we are dealing with all of Abraham's heirs.

The parable starts with 10 minas and gains 15 more minas, a total of 25, so 1 mina per symbol in the Alphabet. Think, 12 tribes of Jacob, and 12 tribes of Ishmael, and then another odd nation out.

But now read down. One of the servants who was given 1 mina was trouble. So 1 side of 1 tribe is trouble. This is Jacob's Benjamin, so Jerusalem, so Babylon.

This servant hid that mina in fine linen. He did not gain anything. He could have at least put it on deposit with the bankers. This is utterly mocking central banking, an industry of Jacob's Benjamin. This then leads to the punch line at the bottom of the parable.

"To everyone who has, will be given. But from him who has not, even what he has will be taken. Those enemies of mine, who did not want me to rule over them, bring and kill before me."

So Joshua accepts Zacchaeus, so Ishmael's Benjamin, but rejects Jerusalem, so Jacob's Benjamin.

This is a general parable about how tax collectors in Egypt can function. Honestly, without extortion. But how Jerusalem does not handle finances correctly. Their end will be destruction.

5th Trumpet

The link here is to Revelation 9 in the BRB. This story was in the Sabbath Reads for last weekend. Ryan and I read through this and could finally start to piece this together.

It begins with the "bottomless pit" which is opened. Pits are where missiles are normally stored. But Iran has particularly deep versions of these pits. Some are saying their current missile silos are 400 meters below ground, others have said Iran's missiles are 800 meters below ground. Only the Iranian's know for sure. In the vocabulary of the text, these missile silos are bottomless. This is why Zionist bombing of Iran could not stop the missiles being launched by Iran.

In this Revelation 9 passage, these pits are opened and something like locusts are released. They will fly and "sting" for 5 months. But this release of locusts will only hurt those who do NOT have the seal of god on their foreheads.

The 5 months is easy. This is the 5 months from the start of Noah's flood.

But, there is a trick. When Noah's flood replays, as it did in 1991, the missiles only fly for the first 40 days. They don't normally fly for 150 days, as per this story in Revelation 9.

We know we have reached this Revelation 9 story only once a Noah's Flood story is running and the missiles fly BEYOND the first 40 days.

The headline this week, which I return to below, is that Iran stopped shooting basically at 40 days from when they started. If this holds beyond April 19, 2026, then we are clear of Revelation 9. If Iran resumes and continues solidly after April 19, 2026, then Revelation 9 is on NOW and not in 2029.

The Victim Is Not Sealed

But that Revelation 9 passage is written against some group who does NOT have a seal. Who, exactly, does NOT have the seal of god?

That seal reference in Revelation 9 is a back reference to the list of tribes sealed in Revelation 7. There is going to be the Jacob set of tribes and the Ishmael set of tribes sealed by that list.

Imagine we can fill in the rest of the Ishmael set at some point. All of the nations identified by seal dates will be safe from this specific plague.

But, 1 tribe, Jacob's Benjamin, was lost. It does not survive with a seal. That 1974 seal date identifies Egypt as Ishmael's Benjamin. But Israel is Babel. It had the chance to be under a seal, but this was lost. This happened as far back as the end of the Book of Judges.

This passage in Revelation is a match to the story of Zacchaeus. Jerusalem is the place that is targeted. Jerusalem is harmed when the bottomless pit is opened. So when Iran opens their pits.

Note, if you continue down Revelation 9:12 implies some sort of gap in time. Then 4 kings bound at the great river (and?) Euphrates are released. These are likely from Ishmael's set of lost tribes, say some set of Iran, Iraq, Syria and perhaps Egypt. Some set we have yet to fully identify.

Grim. When they are released, we get what looks like a global nuclear war. But, it may not be nuclear. Famine from the current war is slowly rolling out already.

War Headline Review

War headlines were very much slower this last week. There was still a steady flow, but this was no longer Easter Week, so there was less matching from headlines to the Passion Week stories that we are also watching in our day.

The main event started very early on Saturday morning, April 4, 2026. This started with rumors that Trump had died. In reality he appeared to be watching events out of Iran from the White House situation room. The event was said to be a failed attempt to rescue a downed pilot. Trouble with that story was the distance from where the pilot went down the crash site for the rescue team.

In any case, this was a failure like Carter's attempt to rescue hostages in Iran in 1980. That failed rescue mission was the end of Carter's presidency. So in some symbolic way, Trump did die that day.

Many speculate that Trump was trying to capture Iran's nuclear materials in order to declare victory and go home. Trump was apparently signed up for a short war, yet the war drags on.

So Trump shifted back to another plan, and threatened to blow up civilian infrastructure, especially power, all across Iran. He, or his Zionist friends, did blow some parts of the Pars field. Trump's target time was 8:00 PM Eastern in the USA on Tuesday, April 7, 2026.

About 1.5 hours earlier, there was sudden word of a cease fire arranged out of Pakistan. Trump was said to have accepted Iran's 10 points. Iran mostly stood down. There was celebration in the streets of Iran that the war was won.

By the following morning, more details were coming out. Trump actually appears to have pulled off a coup in Iran. The Zionist sympathizers inside Iran are now called the "Zerif gang." Most of the IRGC was unable to shoot once Trump pulled this off. Trump posted/boasted about pulling off such a coup.

To add insult to injury, Trump then said the cease fire was for his own 15 point plan instead of Iran's 10 point plan. The Iranians had been duped 2 times. Iran, though, kept the Strait of Hormuz shut to all shipping, so they may have the last laugh.

Most of the experts that have been tracking this war suggest strongly that Iran has just lost the war through a decapitation coup against Iran's leadership. Well played. Iran has no idea of the level of evil they are fighting.

The Revelation 9 story suggests they will recover from the Zionist coup. But, it may take time. We will know better after April 19, 2026.

40 Days Of Rain

The best prophetic match to the current Iran war is from the story of Noah. We are backing up 3 years from a Noah+7000 timeline of Noah. This offset is matching the 3 years of civil war after the death of Solomon, and it would suggest a continuous war for 3 years from around February 28, 2026 going forward. Beware of calendars and day break slop.

By that Noah timeline math we want to see 40 days of rain, so rockets, from the skies, in keeping with the 1991 replay of Noah. At the end, in 1991, there was a 100 hour ground invasion of Kuwait when the fighting was declared over.

This time the bombs started falling 2 weeks earlier than the charts suggest. So bombs started falling around February 28, 2026. The American side says the cease fire is after a 38 day war. The Iranian side is calling this a 40 day war before the cease fire. The Iranians are not afraid to use Biblical time intervals, unlike Zionists.

In any case this may be our Noah 40 days, with a strong warning that Noah+7000 in 2029 might be currently charted 14 days late for some reason. The 14 day cease fire is up basically at that April 19, 2026 date, so we can see what happens at that point.

As I write this, there are some unanswered questions that should become clearer over days to come. Let me review those.

4 Point Dates

Some of the major prophetic intervals, especially those involving modern Israel, involve "4 point dates." By this I mean 2 dates at the start of an interval, and then 2 dates at the tail.

The examples I've used recently in the blog involve a 70 year interval, but with more than 1 date at each end of that same 70 year number. These 4 point date intervals appears to be reserved for particularly serious intervals.

So the 40 days of rain we've just seen may have a second set of dates at the charted Noah dates. Iran shifted up to 1 ton bombs on the real Noah' date. The 40 days from that date is still 2026-04-19, a Sunday, about 1 week after this blog goes out. Presumably it will throttle down. Perhaps we get a ground invasion like in 1991.

Shake the Coup?

We also don't know if/when Iran can successfully shake Trump's Zionist coup against Iran. The 12 day war in June of 2025 and the riots in Iran in early 2026 were both ways that Iran could figure out where the Zionists were controlling their own country. The current coup is yet more evidence they are unready for a full fight with Israel.

Given the Revelation passages cited above, they may take a few years to shake this high level coup. Zionist leaders now in Iran will work to stop Iran's ability to fight.

We are only in the 5 months of that Revelation 9 passage should Iran keep shooting off missiles from their bottomless pit for more than 40 days. By that I would mean keep shooting after that strict April 19, 2026, date.

Watch Dates

Peeking ahead, 2026-04-19 as our next date of interest. This is about the end of the 2 week cease fire, so I would start with meetings in Pakistan. Zionists are not agreement capable, as the Iranians need to figure out.

Headline Review

The following caught my attention this week.

Araghchi's Cease Fire Declaration

The link here is to a post on Telegram with the content of the Iranian Foreign Minister's acceptance of the Pakistani brokered 2 week cease fire. Dated April 7, 2026.

Trump's Version

The link here is to Trump's vision of the same. Because Trump is a dishonest Zionist, everything he says must first be checked, as per the link above.

Helmer On Trump

The link here is to a Nima/Helmer video that explains Trump's strange weekend that started April 4, 2026. Across the weekend there was a failed rescue attempt for a downed pilot. Trump was staring down a crisis similar to US President Carter, with a similar failed hostage rescue attempt in Iran.

Helmer worked in Carter's White House. Trump is fighting for the elections late in 2026. Helmer argues Trump was replaying Carter, which ruined Carter's presidency. The cease fire agreement days later was Trump's way to claim victory over this loss.

Israel's Gaza Strategy

The link here is to a post on Telegram with a clip of a former Israeli MP detailing how Israel is following Hitler in Gaza. They are not earning minas.

Trump Boasting On Regime Change

The link here is to a post on Telegram with Trump's Truth Social post boasting over the Regime Change that happened in Iran on April 7, 2026. Trump knows the Zionists are now in control of Iran. Iran must figure this out on its own. Revelation 9 suggests this is tentative, and will be fixed by Iranians eventually.

Bomb The Vatican?

Fuentes Commentary

The top link here is to a post on X dealing with Trump's threats against the Pope. The Pope has now canceled a planned trip to the USA. The so far rhetorical question is will Trump bomb the Vatican? I would not put it past the Zionists. This may be why this pope is the last pope.

Trump is now being called the "anti-Christ" over this threat. Fuentes is but 1 example.

Iran's Nuke Power Plant

The links here deal with many headlines surrounding Iran's nuclear power plant. It was started in 1975, so in the days of the Shah, a Zionist. It sits on the shore of the Persian Gulf, south east from Kharg Island. Construction was stopped for years after the revolution.

Russians eventually took over construction and finished the plant. It now generates power for Iran's grid. Zionists have now struck that property several times. The reactor vessel has not yet been breached. The Russians have withdrawn their operators from the plant back to Russia.

A Zionist strike would create something like a Chernobyl disaster. Prevailing winds are generally out of the east, so this would poison the Persian Gulf to fishing and desalination and then blow radiation into the GCC countries.

Baghdad Rallies

And More

There is some affinity between the Noah run of 1991 in Iraq and the current run in Iran. The links here are to current rallies in support of Iran as seen in Baghdad, Iraq.

40 Days Mourning

The link here shows the rally in Isfahan marking 40 days of mourning after the death of Iran's supreme leader on February 28, 2026. Crowd sizes are very impressive. Anyone who thinks the Iranian government does not have popular support is deluded. The crowds, though, don't know the Zionists have puppets slowly retaking the place.

In Yemen

More crowds in Yemen. Dated April 9, 2026. Evidence of widespread popular support.

Ukraine: Easter Truce

Putin declared an Easter Truce for the weekend of April 10, 2026. Orthodox Easter is 1 week after Catholic Easter.

Saudi Oil Stopped

In the last few hours before the cease fire, the Iranians took out the pipelines taking Saudi oil to the Red Sea. All oil from the middle east was stopped for most of the week.

Ground Invasion Weather

The link here gives the general weather forecast for summers in Iran. Beginning in late April and running through September it is not possible for ground troops to easily invade Iran because of outside temps. Trump would probably fire any US General who would share this reality.

Iran Trolling

Iran is perhaps the most educated nation on earth. They are particularly good at trolling the Zionists. (Not like there isn't lots of material to build upon.) The link here is to yet another example of expert Iranian media.

Churches Reopened

Israel reopened church facilities in Jerusalem. This link has examples. This for Orthodox Easter and Al-Aqsa.

More Later,

This blog explores Babylon. Before that, some clarification on last week's blog. Then a long section on prophetic war news. We are seeing many headlines where parties are self-identifying their own scripture stories.

Ishmael

Last week's blog introduced the subject of Ishmael. The key idea there is that Ishmael forms a distinct branch of Abraham's heirs which is outside of Isaac and Jacob. The main distinction between Ishmael and Isaac is how the writing prophets come from Jacob's heirs. So we know more about Jacob's heirs than we do about Ishmael. (At least in the base text. Ciphers are coming.) From Jacob's family line of writing prophets we also get Joshua and the New Testament writing. So the incarnation comes through Isaac.

Part of the story of Genesis involving Ishmael includes how he became "12 princes." This story is explained starting at Genesis 25:12. It includes a list of 12 names found at Genesis 25:14-15.

By our normal rules of marking up the text, this is a list of 12 which is thus always going to be a list of the 12 tribes. So Ishmael's 12 princes also overlays the 12 tribes that spring from the heirs of Jacob.

This must be true by the general rules of reading the text. But we are left with what this might mean.

1) Are we to think of Ishmael as replacing Benjamin?

2) Or are we to think of Ishmael as having formed a complete set of parallel tribes, so a second set of tribes?

Likely, what is going on is that Ishmael forms a complete copy of the 12 tribes independent of Jacob's heirs. The structure of Genesis 25 basically demands this interpretation.

With Jacob already identified by the current seal date math as Europe, Ishmael should be found somewhere else in the world. Perhaps Asia and/or Africa is where we might find the lost tribes of Ishmael.

Solving A Complaint

Several years ago, Ryan and I had a conversation with an exchange student from Africa. His question of us on this point of the seal dates was about if there might be a lost tribe in Africa somewhere. We did not have an answer. But now, maybe we do.

There are hints of this in the text. The Queen of Sheba, who visited Solomon, who has a long and well known further history in central Africa can now be from a lost tribe of Ishmael. Philip and the Cushite is also now a pointer to a lost tribe in the upper Nile region of Africa. Maybe this is Ethiopia, some translations point to that location. The Magi, at Joshua's birth, are now also likely from a lost tribe somewhere under Ishmael.

Presumably some of Ishmael would have gone east, so China or India, or the other south east Asian nations. These are the likely regions where we might find more of the lost tribes of Ishmael.

When I was working on Bible Tribes I used colonial history to try and span the globe. This aspect of that study comes directly from my Protestant understanding of the world. If there is another 12 tribes of Ishmael out there somewhere then the colonial track in this European side of this study does not need to reach the whole world. Ishmael takes care of the problem of Abraham's descendants spanning the globe and then reaching the skies.

Tight Matches

Because Ishmael's heirs are a list of 12, this causes this second list of names to match Jacob's 12 in some tight way. We would expect most of the prophetic details of those tribes to pair off with each of Jacob's 12 in some sort of rigorous way. This is a fruitful understanding because the Seal Dates may have duplicates in these otherwise remote regions. There may be a STEM way to identify those tribes. (This is future work.)

The Vine exhibit, currently standing in the shop, helps to inspire some of the answers to this problem. That exhibit may also help explain Iran a little better.

Vine Details

The Vine exhibit carries the Silver set of 3d models. These capture the left/right folding of the alphabet. There are 12 models that have a "left/right" design ethic. Organizing the Vine itself involves spelling the name Abraham. By using Jacob's "crossed arm" principle we arrange the 25 letters of the alphabet across the various flowers on the vine.

So the 12 tribes will match the 12 objects of the silver set. We have previously assigned 12 national names to the 12 tribes in a 1-to-1 set of matches to these 12 objects. (Though we don't know with any certainty which flowers match specific tribes.)

If there is a 2nd set of 12 nations still hidden to us out in the world, then these objects inform a longer set of 24 paired nations. Each national pair will share a single silver object for tribal identity.

So, each letter of the alphabet will go with a specific nation somewhere out in the world. And of course, because there is an odd number of shapes in the alphabet there will be an odd nation out. This odd nation will either be Dan, which we already know in Europe, or else some other single nation somewhere else in the world.

The entire Vine is built using the crossed arm principle, so the nations of earth will have that same pairing. A left version and a right version. Stated differently, there is an Isaac and Ishmael version of each lost tribe. Tribes will pair off nations in the western world with nations in the eastern world.

Jacob's set of nations is currently identified and is mostly around Europe. Ishmael's set, found across other parts of the world are yet to be discovered. There is still much work to do there. Bible Tribes will need to be rewritten.

This is a long winded way of showing that Ishmael does not replace Benjamin. Instead Ishmael hosts a parallel set of entire nations. As these are all heirs of Abraham, the entire set of heirs of Abraham look to span the entire globe, including Asia and Africa.

Iran

In last week's blog I explained how we must use a Babylon vs. Persia interpretation to understand the modern chronology of the nation of Israel. The Zionist project, so Modern Israel, is prophetically known as Babel, or Babylon.

From the accounts of the later prophets, especially Daniel, we learn that kings from Media and Persia, now Iran, were able to defeat Babel.

History is simply repeating, at a "7 times" offset, so 2550 years, from when Babylon took over Jerusalem in Jeremiah's day. It will also repeat at a "7 times" offset from when Persia defeated Babylon and then took effective control over Jerusalem.

We now have a rather remarkable war where Iran is standing up to the school yard bully that is Zionism. Zionist puppet governments control most countries in the world, but not Iran. This is why Trump, following orders from a foreign government, has targeted Iranian leaders. Zionists wanted to put a Zionist in charge of Iran. The "7 times" view of history suggests very strongly this will not ultimately work.

Babel/Babylon

I started thinking about other references to Babel, or Babylon, that are found in the text. (I know Babylon from my days of using the NIV. The BRB uses Babel. These are synonyms.)

There are many references to Babel spread across the text. Some of those references inform the fight to ultimately defeat the Zionist family that surrounds the editors and their work in the world.

Let me cover some high points of a word study with key references to Babel.

Tower of Babel (BRB)

After we go back 7 times to Babel in Daniel and Jeremiah's day, we can go back another 7 times interval. So we are going back around 5100 years from the present. When we do that, we arrive at the story of the Tower of Babel. This is the start of the history of Babel as given in the text.

So we must first get our head around the idea that the defeat of Babel in Daniel's day was itself a 7 times echo of the fall of the tower of Babel. In our day Babel has already fallen 2 times previously. Those 2 times where on 7 times, or 2550 year, anniversaries. We are now staring down a war where Babel falls for yet a 3rd time.

The link above is to the story of the Tower of Babel given in Genesis 11. This is not an exactly dated story. So on a simple read we don't know when to place that Tower of Babel story in history.

Tower Of Babel Timing

The dating for this story is established in the Matthew Grand Run, which reviews history. That run begins at Matthew 16:23. Each reference to "a day" in that story counts 1000 years. This is following Joshua's prophetic time given in 2 Peter 3:8.

By Matthew 17:14-23 we find the New Testament commentary on the Tower of Babel. At the end, Joshua comments that he will rise on the 3rd day.

This means the tower of Babel is roughly 3000 years ahead of the end of Passion Week in the New Testament. So that Tower of Babel story is set in history as ending roughly around 8000 AA. Remember, though, this is a national building project that likely took many decades leading up to that final story.

The First Babel Story

Let me review that Babel story. They have traveled east from somewhere. They are known to history as having arrived in a plain in what is now Iraq. The Persian gulf had not silted in as much as today. They are somewhere along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers.

The story is often translated as having made "bricks" to build a tower. But the writing from that place and era was on baked clay tablets. Bricks and Tablets were made with the same technology. The original language term can mean either "tablet" or "brick." Tower is also spelled similarly to scroll.

We know those Babylonian era tablets as cuneiform clay tablets. The people of ancient Babel want to make for themselves a name, so a reputation, so a written legacy. This so they will not be spread cross the world. Mass produced cuneiform tablets have also been found. So this was the first use of published writing. These were made with a cylinder that was rolled in wet clay. In their day, just as ours, the most valuable book is scripture.

By Genesis 11:6 we learn that Babel was all about building a language and a reputation. The punishment fits the crime and their language is confused and they cannot keep building. They are spread abroad. You should see this as exactly the same as the editors. What we today call the Zionists, what I started calling Babylon last week. We know Babel as Bible from 2000 years ago. These are all the same stories as the Tower of Babel.

New Testament Parable

Joshua's parable for this is given starting in Matthew 17:14. Babel is described as like epilepsy. The young disciples, raised in the edited texts, have no victory over this. Joshua calls his generation crooked and without belief. (This being commentary on the Jews, so the edited text of Babel.) By Matthew 17:20 Joshua discusses the faith to move mountains. The "mountain" here is the "tower of Babel" so the stories fabricated by the editors. A grain of mustard can do this. Perhaps he means the dots of the audit. Perhaps he means the seed of the Fig Tree, so ciphers.

This parable of Babel finishes in Matthew 17:22 where he discusses how the heirs of Babel will kill Joshua, but that he will rise the 3rd day. By this Joshua is identifying the Jews of his day as being the same as those who built the Tower of Babel.

Joshua also points out that he will defeat Babel when he rises on the 3rd day. This is the evening of Resurrection Sunday. It maps across timed world history. That day is 30 years long. It is going on right now. Joshua is rising against Babel, his killers, right now. He is defeating them right now. It should be done by the end of 13020, which is inside a replay of the 7000 anniversaries of Noah's flood.

Though not documented, presumably Noah was dealing with a Babel related community in his own day. So 2550 years earlier than the Tower of Babel, basically around the time of Noah's birth. Noah's first year was 5420 AA. He is named in Genesis 5:29 with the following "This one will comfort us from our work and from the toil of our hands and from the land which the Master has cursed." Sounds a little bit like his father knows the same problems of Babel.

Back To Iran

Iran is not mentioned in the Tower of Babel story. But those who built that tower, that tablet, that false history, today's Zionism, had traveled from the east. Joshua is described as having "gone down" to see what they were doing. We normally think of going down from heaven. Where else would he go down from?

Presumably this was a war that Joshua directed against those ancient Babylonians. Joshua works mostly through people. Where did that army come from? Also from the east? From the mountains of what is now Iran? Perhaps.

Perhaps they went down and confused Babel from the land of Iran.

I strongly suspect this is what happened. I know this because I get to apply the Persians against Babel in Daniel's day back 7 times to the Tower of Babel. This is why I get to apply those stories again now, forward into our day too.

With properly drawn charts, on a "7 times" grid, this would be trivially easy to see. (The Crown exhibit is coming.) All of these "Fall of Babel" stories will just align with each other. No need for mental gymnastics as I am doing here.

A Colony Of Noah?

Iran looks to be a special place in terms of being the remaining geographical heirs to Noah. This may also be related to the origin of Abraham. Abraham's Ur was on the edge of ancient Iran.

You can reread Genesis 9 where we see the post-flood covenant made with Noah. Though the modern national border is just east of mount Ararat, Iran appears to hold unique claim to some special promises related to Noah. (There is a link below to a better ancient map of Iran. Ancient Iran included the remains of Noah's ark.)

More On Babel

If you do a word search in the BRB for the word "Babel" you will find 281 occurrences. As place names go, this is perhaps one of the most frequent terms.

As I explored last time, this is a geographic term, but it is also a term used for confused speech, as in "Bible." We still use it in English to identify confused speech. Young children often babel.

Babel is also an important term in Revelation. Defeating of "Mystery Babel" is something that marks the end of the age. Let me give you a few references to think about in terms of what might be going on in headlines.

Revelation 14:6 (BRB)

This is the start of the story where we find the first reference to Babel in the Book of Revelation. A king is described as flying in the skies with the "everlasting thinking." This would be carrying the text which is inspired.

At verse 7 we learn about the "hour" of the judgment. That strange word "hour" is a variation on the spelling of the number 7. An hour is a short hand for 7. So hour is referencing the same "7 times" intervals that we are using to historically time the current events in Israel with both the events in Jeremiah's day and then back to the Tower of Babel. We are now at that hour as described in that passage. We have a few more years left, 2044 or so, when this should be fully over.

By verse 8 we find Babel as having fallen. Babel, as I described last week, is the term that covers all of the editors. They write fiction but then stuff that fiction into inspired text. Babel also has a geography. In Abraham's time it was Ur. In our day, the Babel's current world capital is Jerusalem.

We can also read in that Revelation passage that Babel is a type of prostitution. This is calling out the editor Mordecai, Epstein, and the breaking of covenant promises which is what the editors always do.

Rich Babel

The last references to Babel are in Revelation 18. Here the merchants of Babel have become rich through her trade. This looks to be a reference to fractional reserve lending as practiced by Zionist central bankers. This was setup by editor Solomon which enabled the conquering of the world.

Solomon used fiat currency, a magical way to create money out of nothing, in order to build his temple and palace. Modern Zionist central bankers do the same. They can build anything, hire any army, buy off any crooked politician.

Iran wants to shut the Strait of Hormuz to traffic paid for in US Dollars. So no use of Zionist fiat currency for future oil trade. This would be Iran's way to stop the physical wealth accumulation of the Zionists. The stories of this Revelation chapter can be seen as going on now.

You should see how identifying Babel with the family of editors and with the tradition they live within, now gives us the key to cracking many otherwise difficult prophetic stories across the text. I have only touched on Babel here in this blog.

Prophetic Headline Flow

This week the prophetic rains of Noah continued to fall across Israel, Iran and the rest of the GCC countries. There have been many, many events this past week that weave in various ways back to stories in scripture. Let me step you through some of them.

I don't believe I've seen this sort of prophetic pacing at any other time in my life. World War II was probably faster. It may be that social media makes these sorts of events easier to see. Most links that follow are from X and Telegram. Regular media just cannot keep up.

Plague Of Arab

We are currently in a several week window when we are watching for headlines related to a replay of the Plague of Arabs. In the 2008 replay was the election of Obama as US President.

This time it looks to match the rumored death of Netanyahu around March 8, 2026. About 1 week later we started seeing AI generated versions of Netanyahu.

My strong sense of this was that Netanyahu had died but the Arab replacement was unwilling to show his face. The new leader probably has some good reason to hide. Maybe fear of Iran or of assassination by his own people. Perhaps he is still working crooked deals in order to get votes. Perhaps he does not want to take blame for Israel's defeat. Whatever.

Possible Arab

We would not expect to see a new leader proclaimed in Israel for a while. The war probably needs to wind down. But there are a few possible candidates where we might expect them to attract headlines even now. That man, of course, needs good Babylonian credentials, ideally following some pattern from the list of editors.

Ben Givr

Syrian Protests In Response

The link here is to a post on Telegram with a video clip where Ben Givr celebrates the passage of a new death penalty law in Israel. This is aimed directly at West Bank Palestinians who have been fighting back against confiscation of their lands. In that first video you can see some of his mania.

The second link is to Syrian protests in response. This is a serious problem because it sets up yet another means of genocide against Palestinians.

The law itself sets up a legal process where the deaths of Palestinians can now be blamed on the Israeli government, absolving individual soldiers of war crimes.

This is a modern example of the story of Ahab and Jezebel using lawfare against Naboth in order to take his land. Ahab and Jezebel hid behind the law in order to murder and take land. Amazing how precise this new Israeli law is matching the base story of editors 2 of 6.

Note also that we are NOT tracking the timeline of the NORTHERN kingdom. That timeline is scrambled in normal texts, and needs audit work before being checked again.

Ahab and Jezebel are in that timeline at some date near to our current time. They precede the Assyrian Deportation which is coming up later this year. The passage of this Israeli law may not only be identifying a future Arab leader in Israel, it may also be a precisely matched fulfillment headline against Ahab and Jezebel themselves.

Death Chamber

This link is on Telegram from a couple days later. Givr is now showing off his new death chamber along with his new gallows. This is an echo of Hitler's death chambers, so another strong echo back to World War II.

But this video does something else important. Givr is now identifying himself as Esther's Haman. This sets up how to think of the parts in the Book of Esther as we will be rerunning that book here soon. So when we get to the 7 times echo of Esther we will now know who is who.

The Bibi Files

The link here is to the TCN page that hosts a new documentary dealing with Netanyahu's corruption. This is behind a paywall, so I have not watched it. I am posting it here just for the record.

I doubt this could have been released if Netanyahu was still alive. If he was still alive, then he would have gone to lawfare against the makers of the film. If litigated now, the film makers would demand legal proof of life before going any further.

The film makers would also have the legal power to demand even more evidence of Netanyahu's corruption. Clips taken from this documentary are showing up everywhere. It is revealing how Zionism works. It is ultimately lawless.

Jerusalem Church Trouble

This past weekend was Easter Sunday and there was a flurry of headlines out of Israel dealing with how Israeli authorities have closed the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.

This headline is a good marker that someone new, an Arab, is now running Israel. This new leader looks to be someone who does not care about Christian support from the western world, unlike Netanyahu.

Here are a few links with details on the closing itself. Not only is this a sign of an Arab in control, this closing calls out that we are just starting a major war. Let me explain.

Church Closed

This was the first report I saw of how local Israeli officials had stopped even private celebration of Palm Sunday mass at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.

Palm Sunday celebrates the day of Joshua's triumphal entry into Jerusalem. This event provides a headline that marks the START of Passion Week.

Importantly, we are watching for a general replay of passion week here on what we know of as Resurrection Sunday. The text for this day is the Road to Emmaus. On this day, Joshua demanded that we recall to him the events of Passion Week.

This headline marks the start of Passion Week. So this headline is the start of the events of that week. These headlines will run to around the end of 13020, which is Noah's Flood + 7000 years.

Governed By Treaty

Access to the holy sites in Jerusalem is governed by a 1993 treaty with the Vatican. The link here is to that treaty itself. Interaction with Catholic officials in Jerusalem is a diplomatic issue, not a local authority issue.

Israel is fundamentally a lawless bunch, which is part of my contention that we are now dealing with an "Arab" so likely Givr, running Israel. Local officials in Israel do not care about international treaties which fall under the general category of international law.

Joshua would demonstrate their lawlessness across Passion Week. Expect worse to happen against Christians before this is over.

The Vatican Saw It This Way

The link here is to a post on X with the details of the Vatican summoning the Israeli ambassador over the closing of this church on Easter. This of course does not matter, Israel is a lawless bunch.

Over 1000 Years

The link here is to a post on X with the history of this event. The last time it was closed by political action was in 1009, so over 1000 years ago. Rarity marks it as an important headline.

George Galloway

The link here is to a George Galloway post on X dwelling on the point that this disproves the "Judeo-Christian" tradition itself.

Passion Week, itself, disproves the "Judeo-Christian" tradition. This is the point of calling it out as Babel in the Book of Revelation.

Mount of Olives

So Christian services were shifted to the Mount of Olives. Here are some links. Think about what scripture we are reenacting.

Cardinal Pizzaballa (Pic)

Cardinal Pizzaballa (Vid)

The top link here is to a post on X of the replacement ceremony. You can see the eastern wall of the old city from the foot of the mount of olives. This is where services were moved. That wall has a gate to Jerusalem which is closed.

The second link has a short video of the same service. This has the best view of the service itself, so you can see better what was going on.

This is a highly symbolic response to Israel. Joshua's exact movements across that historical week are unclear, but he did appear to go to that mountain, outside of the city.

Jude the betrayer revealed Joshua on the mount of Olives. By moving to this location, they are calling out Luke 22:15 to anyone with a clue.

This is where Joshua was arrested before his trial and crucifixion at the hand of the Jewish leaders. You can see why Catholic leaders would move to this spot. (They also have a church there, which helps.)

Joshua Wept

Many commentators on this event are backing up in the Passion Week chronology to when Joshua wept over the city. So focusing more on this Palm Sunday story that is going on in Jerusalem. The link here is to Luke 19:41 in the BRB. This is important enough to quote in full here.

"When he [Joshua] drew near and saw the city he wept over it. He said, If you had only known those who came for your peace, even in this your day, but now they are hidden from your eyes. The days will come when your enemies will surround you and oppress you from every place and will overthrow you and your children inside you and they will not leave in you a stone on a stone, because you did not know the time when you were to be visited."

This story is early in the passion week, again, a Palm Sunday like story.

Remember, Joshua told his disciples to remember the details of passion week as Resurrection Sunday replays. This is what we are doing now. Anything that hints of Passion Week and World Wars I and II are important to spot. These links to Cardinal Pizzaballa are doing that. This is a passion week replay headline, it tells us we are at the replay of the start of that week.

More Headlines

Headlines continued to flow this week. Many of them provide back stories and commentary on what is currently going on in the Iran war.

Safa Affair

The link here is to a Mohammad Safa post on X. He was a UN staffer. He resigned after finding that Zionists are running the UN. (This was news to me, but not really a surprise.)

Safa then starting warning anyone who would listen that those same Zionists plan on Nuking Iran. World War II ended with a nuke. Perhaps we will see a nuke used early in World War III. Again, any headlines that hint of events from (especially) World War II matter now. Pay attention.

Spain Closes Airspace

The link here is to a post on Telegram with details of how Spain is closing airspace to the US Military. This closure is so the USA cannot bomb Iran from Spain. This would be followed by other nations across the week. But Spain looks to be the first.

Through the lens of World War II, remember that Spain had its own civil war, but was generally not a combatant in World War II. This history might indicate Spain is a possible European refuge through the war soon to come.

Rubio

The link here is to a post on Telegram. This is Rubio talking about Iran. The Protocols of Zion clearly teach that practitioners of that religion are to blame their opponents for everything they, themselves, are doing. This is one of the most clear examples you are ever likely to see. Rubio practices Zionism quite well.

Joe Kent

Joe Kent is suddenly on the scene. This because of his recent appearance on Tucker. In this post on Telegram, Kent warns of escalation against Iran. Duh.

Kent then urges political action to try and stop it. Kent is missing the correct tool for this. This is a RELIGIOUS war. It can only be dealt with by religious means. There are no tools in US politics for troubles of this nature. The USA is captured by Zionists, so a captured part of Babel.

As a start, Kent should be calling people to pray. Not much else is currently possible.

Hormuz Law

This is to a post on X detailing how the Iranian government is codifying into law the transit fees for using the Strait of Hormuz. They are citing the 1956 fees imposed by Egypt after Egypt seized the Suez Canal. Those canal fees still exist.

This is a feature of the 70th anniversary timeline from the war in 1956. This appears to be a few months early, so there may be some squabbling over this. I would expect the fees to stick, as they did in 1956.

The primary objection, which you may see in comments on this post, is that the Suez Canal was built by Egyptians, while Hormuz is natural. So the logic is because the Egyptians built that canal, they can charge fees. Because Hormuz is natural, it belongs to all.

Problem is Egypt did NOT build the canal. Ferdinand de Lesseps, who was French, was the primary builder of that canal. The English were also involved. Egypt had to take the asset as they were its primary protectors. Iran is doing the same now. Iran is correctly reasoning about this relative to Suez. Oman looks to join Iran in this control over Hormuz.

Government Responses

This link is to a strange post on X detailing major financial news in various countries around the world. These are all responses to the war with Iran.

Countries are worried about financial collapse from this war. This is because they are leveraged via Zionist banks. Iran, strangely enough, does not seem to have much trouble. Iran's central bank is not in the Zionist cartel.

This financial detail is another part of this war. The end of merchants making themselves wealthy is what Revelation teaches must happen to defeat Babel. Zionists cannot remain enslaving most of the world in order for them to keep buying weapons.

House On Rock (BRB)

There was a series of strange headlines out of the GCC countries this past week dealing ultimately with a pretty serious series of storms that flowed through the region. This weather involved Turkey, Iraq and GCC countries. This did not appear to have seriously impacted Iran.

This reminded me of a story starting at Matthew 7:24, linked above. This is the tail end of the Beatitudes. Joshua admonishes building a house on rock, so when the storm comes your house will withstand the storm.

The stories that precede that passage are running details of the editors. Last week I noted that Babylon is the name that captures the set of editors. So Babylon precedes that house on the rock story.

Perhaps the house on a rock, in terms of prophetic nations, is actually dealing with Iran? So the antidote to the editors, the antidote to Babel?

So in this house on the rock parable, the likely interpretive storm is the Noah+7000 year flood of 13020 (2029). This passage is likely a veiled reference to when and who will defeat the editors, so defeat Babel.

In terms of the editing process we normally take Shechem as the house built on a rock. This is where Abraham camped and it is where Joshua, son of Nun, setup the Tabernacle.

But, there might also be a national application. Iran is built on a rock, the mountains that surround the country. The rest of the Middle East is on sand.

Iran is also perhaps the only remaining colony of Noah. So the storm reference would be hinting that Iran can withstand Babel, during a time of a flood, like Noah's flood. So this year, but especially through 2029 and beyond.

Here are the links to this week's specific storm headlines.

Turkey Full

The link here is to a post on X indicating that Turkey's lakes are full and the gates to the Tigris and Euphrates are now open. More on Turkey's lakes below.

Lakes In Iraq Full

Another post on X with photos and comments about full lakes in Iraq. Filled since late in 2025.

Storm Video

Video from a storm in Dubai around March 28, 2026. The lightening and rain are so severe many think this is AI. Perhaps. Or perhaps nature is angry.

More Dubai Storm

Another video from Dubai from the same storm. Airplanes in more ground water that I would think safe. It disproves the AI questions on the first video.

This weather is on the sandy side of the gulf of Hormuz. Iran sits on the rock.

No More Cloud Seeding

The link here is to a long post on X, well cited, that explains that for years, Israel and the UAE have been conducting cloud seeding to draw rains away from Anatolia. That is the name for the western lands of Turkey. With Iranian missiles those cloud seeding flights are no longer going on. It is now raining again in Turkey. The filling of the Tigris Euphrates river system may be directly related to the war. Noah's flood as a prophetic story also has real rain.

Zionists In Jordan

Years ago the king of Jordan would visit Mount Rainier near Seattle to ride his motor cycle. Local reports indicated he did this to de-stress. He would lead on his bike, his security detail would follow in a pack, each on their own motorcycles. Our house was on the highway to the mountain and these guys would roar by.

The link here is to a post on X detailing likely royal family ties of that family back to Zionist families in Europe. Most of the other GCC countries have known or suspected ties that are similar. This is why they are not well liked by their public. This also explains why the group of such leaders does not want to side with Iran. These appear to be the royal houses built on the sand.

These royal houses may also be the wealthy merchants from Revelation. They are mostly trading in oil. (Though not Jordan.)

Bahrain: Sunnis and Shiites

The link here is to a post on X that shows a huge crowd of Muslims in Bahrain that has come together in support of Iran and against their local government. This is what Iran hopes to see across the region.

As all the regional leaders are Zionists, it is a lack of organization that prevents events like shown here from succeeding. The public there does not share the same religion as the rulers, so this is easier than in the west. A private prayer event would perhaps be more effective.

Falling Stars

Revelation 6, 8 and 12 all include references to trouble with stars. Stars falling from the skies appears to mark this general season in history. So in our time, around the 7 times from Jeremiah's day. In traditional Christianity, the interpretation of falling stars is usually based on an allegory. In the 1700s, what else could this be?

Last week I gave a link for a green fireball. But there have been perhaps dozens of similar examples of burning space junk falling from the skies. These would be the modern example of falling stars, very similar to natural shooting stars.

Here are a few example links of what is being seen.

Junk Falling From Sky

Fire Balls

A Starlink Example

The top link here is to a post on X suggesting these are all examples of spy satellites being shot down in order to blind Iran.

So Zionists, so the USA, is shooting down either Chinese or Russian spy satellites. This would be to blind the ability of Iran to target their missiles very accurately. It would also make battle damage assessment harder to do.

The 3rd link above involves a Starlink, with SpaceX itself acknowledging trouble with a certain satellite. This would indicate that someone is shooting back. (Or else space junk is bouncing around.) I seem to recall that SpaceX satellites have at least 1 camera, though I do not know this for sure.

By the time we get to 2029 there may be no functioning satellites at all, including internet constellations like Starlink. Beware.

First American POW Report

The link here is to a post on X with photos of what are likely the first captured American POWs in the Iran war.

This shows there is some amount of ground operation going on already. Though I would still look to this getting more active around our next watch date, so 2026-04-19. The end of Noah's 40 days saw ground invasion in 1991.

Probable Nuke

This is a link to a post on Telegram that embeds a Truth Social post by Trump. The flash is similar to bombs used against Syria in September of 2024, that would later turn out to be nukes.

Trump's glee over this particular flash suggests he knows what he has done. He knows this is a special bomb. Iran will measure the radiation residue and decide what they want to do. Iran controls escalation, not the Zionists.

There are now other posts on X suggesting this was a strike on an Iranian nuclear bunker. This reporting is so the radiation from this Zionist nuke can be blamed on Iran. Zionists are clever bastards, always wanting to blame their enemy for what they, themselves, are doing.

Oil Cargo Map

The link here is to a post on X with a transit map for oil leaving the Persian Gulf. It is focusing on last arrival dates from the oil that had left the gulf before February 28, 2026, when this mess began.

Note that depending on distance, various countries stop getting petroleum products at different dates. Australia is listed on that post as the last to receive shipped oil because some products are refined off-shore before arriving in Australia.

The last date when that gulf oil arrives at final destinations is listed as April 20, 2026. This date is very close to our next expected prophetic date of 2026-04-19.

Besides watching for a ground war, we can now watch for an oil shock to then trigger and to spread across much of the developed world. Many places will already be in such a shock by then. This matches the idea of rising waters of the flood.

Oil Shock Incoming

For those old enough to remember, this will be the 1973 oil shock, but worse. I was not old enough to drive at the time. But I remember my father's grief one day when he returned home from work. He had been unable to find any open gas station on his way home, which he needed in order to get to work the next day.

I don't remember what he did that day. But I do know my father ended up car pooling through the rest of that oil shock. It took both men to figure out where they could get gas and to share waiting through long lines.

Once the crisis was over my father eventually purchased a diesel powered VW. This was because diesel did not run out in that 1973 crisis. Even though gas had returned, he drove a diesel the rest of his life, never wanting to experience the same trauma ever again.

This generation will be unable to get gas nor diesel. They will wish they owned an electric vehicle. Once they can buy one, they will drive those EVs for the rest of their lives. Fossil fuel car makers are history.

For now, keep automobile gas tanks nearly full, all of the time, until this war is long over and prices start returning to something normal. For those who survive, price will greatly reduce usage.

If, by some miracle, oil were to begin flowing again at that next date, so April 19, 2026, it would take another 50 days before it would start arriving again. That is a VERY long time in terms of oil supply. 50 days from April 19 is a very, very optimistic goal. It may be more like half a year to a year.

In the 1991 replay of Noah, Iraq invaded Kuwait. Out of spite, the Iraqis set all the oil wells in Kuwait on fire. They dumped stored oil into the Persian Gulf. This time, the same is happening with Iran blowing up GCC country oil facilities. No oil is part of the Noah story.

Rationing In Alaska

The link here is to a post on X detailing rationing of fuels to farmers in Alaska. This is upstream of all US West Coast users of oil. Anyone on the US West Coast needs to be especially careful. The US West Coast will see trouble before the rest of the USA.

Note too, that fuel shortages effect the food supply. No fuel for that farmer means no crops. No fuel for Alaska fishermen means no fish. See the trouble?

No Kings Protests

This post on X has photos of No Kings protests in the USA over the weekend of March 28, and 29, 2026. The post suggests these may have reached a total of around 10,000,000 protesters involved.

In years past, when we were watching Psalms related prophetic dates, nearly every large gathering like this was matched with a prophetic story. I don't know how to integrate Psalms into the current story line, but in any case, this is probably a prophetic event as well, just not identified by a watch date.

Generally speaking, large crowds gathering in protest were mocked by the Psalms. Crowds are trying to solve spiritual problems by political means. The crowds are wanting help from Zionist kings. In this case the crowds seem to think future Democratic Zionist leaders will fix Trump.

If the crowds think the Democrats will fix this, they are deluded. Zionists control both sides. Trump is just taking orders. So would Harris if she were in the office.

The same amount of hours spent by these crowds, if spent in private prayer, would fix most troubles in the USA. Not gonna happen.

Trump/Hegseth

In years past, when I was watching this sort of headline on a regular basis, one of the patterns we saw in headlines was how the parties that fulfilled prophetic stories were calling out their stories in their own speech.

Think Obama calling out his own Muslim faith as but 1 example.

This pattern is strange to watch. Finding this pattern suggests we have correctly identified the party that fulfills the expected prophetic story.

I have started seeing this pattern again. It has been going on this week in some interesting ways. Let me give you 2 examples, both tied to Hegseth.

Back to the Stone Age

In Trump's evening speech on April 1, he said he was out to bomb Iran back to the stone age. Hegseth picked this up with a post on X. The link here is to a post on Telegram on Larry Johnson's Sonar 21 ultimately providing a copy and commentary on Hegseth quoting Trump. "Back to the Stone Age."

The commentary is adding an ancient map of Iran. There is a comment on that post that this is a precise Iron Age map of Iran, not exactly Stone Age. In any case, this is a good starting point for a map of Iran after Noah. Importantly, Iran was a major world empire at the time. It included Noah's Mount Ararat.

By wanting Iran returned to the Stone Age, Trump and Hegseth want Iran to become a world power and major empire all over again. These men are calling out what they are causing to happen. They are calling out the prophetic stories that are unfolding around them now.

Hegseth Prayer

This is another example of the same pattern. Hegseth was leading a meeting at the Pentagon and he prayed for the American troops ahead of the ground invasion. So far, so good. Hegseth read out the prayer that was given over the first group of ground invasion troops being sent against Iran. Also, so far, so good.

But then, you need to watch the 3 minute video of exactly what he prayed. Just after the 1 minute mark he is praying that this would be successful, just like the fall of Babylon in ancient times was successful.

Full stop. No reason to keep watching the video.

The party with victory over ancient Babylon was Persia. Daniel recorded that event for us, and interpreted the writing on the wall. That headline will be seen again in our day. Including Persia dictating terms in Jerusalem.

Hegseth does not know what he asks for. He is asking for Persia to win, just as in ancient times. American Zionist Christians are a crazy bunch. I would think to pray "Father forgive them, for they know not what they are doing." Instead I should just keep quiet. These crazy Babylonians seem to already be praying better prayers than I might dream up.

Watch Dates

Next date of interest remains 2026-04-19. This is the end of 40 days of rain for Noah. In 1991, when this prophetic date passed previously, we saw the ground invasion of Kuwait. It was liberated in a 100 hour ground war.

Trump's April 1, 2026, speech called out a time interval that pushes out to that date. He was calling out his likely end to the war. So this is another example of parties calling out their own stories. Curiously, Iran is calling out 6 more months. In any case, does Trump or his people follow this blog? That would be cheating.

Look to the days around that Sunday for something similar, perhaps an end of bombing, perhaps a ground fight somewhere. The USA is not really prepared this time to invade a whole country. Watch also for oil products to be running out around the world.

Until then, the rains just keep coming. Stay safe.

More Later,

Introducing Ishmael

Phil Stone — Fri, 27 Mar 2026 21:52:55 GMT

This blog addresses last week's footnote. It revisits Bible Tribes and explores the overlooked promises to Abraham, especially the promises to Ishmael which looks to include Iran. It also revisits the problem of Benjamin. Then a long headline review.

Bible Tribes

The link here is to the Bible Tribes website. This was originally a tab on Bible Time. The amount of material just kept growing, so it was moved to its own website.

This was originally a timeline based study based on the tribe list of Revelation 7. In that chapter there is a story of "sealing" the tribes. 12,000 from each tribe are sealed. At the time when I first worked out this riddle, well over 25 years ago now, I was using a simple rule. All counts of anything in the text, whatever else they may be, are also references to time.

That rule implies Revelation 7 is a timeline, 144,000 days long. What does sealing mean for tribes? It means each tribe would seal national documents with wax and seals, just like in ancient times. I eventually found the seal date documents, this was before there was good internet search, so it was not easy.

This math based study then caused me to back up and track the promises to the tribes themselves. This is a secondary way to identify the tribes. At the time, I also learned that most tribes had small groups who already knew their tribal identity. Identifying tribes without using seal dates is usually done through promises made to the tribes. Sometimes it is done by name.

The promises to the tribes originate with Abraham and then become tribe specific by the end of Genesis. So individual tribal identities can be worked out without the use of the Revelation 7 list.

What This Falsifies

This study itself shows 2 popular theologies to be false. The first is that the "Church" replaces "Israel." This is an argument still used in Christian circles. Tucker even used it recently. He was using it to invalidate Jewish claims to being the sole heirs of Abraham. What actually happened is that the Church took root and grew within the lost tribes which had mostly settled in Rome. The New Testament ends in Rome for this very reason.

The Bible Tribes study also invalidates the Jewish claim to being the unique claimants to the promises to Abraham. The promises to Abraham do not even escape the Book of Genesis in a form where any specific tribal group can make a unique claim on Abraham.

Ultimately this is seen when Jacob blesses his sons and grandsons near the end of Genesis. A simple read of Jacob's blessings is all that is needed to see this. Tucker should have quoted Genesis and asked, are the Jews the Great Nation? Are the Jews the Community of Nations? Or are the Jews one of the other many nations that come from Jacob?

This is actually how Tucker would have invalidated Jewish claims because this is so easy for anyone to see. This is only using simple scripture to do so. Anyone, in any tradition, could go read it for themselves. This shows Jewish hypocrisy when it comes to interpreting the text and shows they cannot be trusted for anything else. Turns out, Jews often make claims on the book that even casual readers can see are false claims.

Other Promises

When I was working on Bible Tribes I was looking at the promises to Abraham because I knew they informed the tribes. So the Bible Time website starts with a series of articles that track the promises to Abraham down through Jacob. Then it shows how those promises diverge across Jacob's heirs. The Seal Dates study of Revelation 7 then provides a way to find those nations in the modern era, with modern names and geography. This story line was enough when Bible Tribes was originally written.

I did not consider that there are some important side promises that are made in Abraham's day that are outside of Jacob. There was no timeline based technique that could crack those stories. So they were outside of my scope when the Bible Tribes story was written. Those side promises are still within that general tree of tribal promises that descend from Abraham's call to leave Ur. My purpose in this blog is to address those promises.

When I was working on Bible Tribes I also did not understand the importance of the last 3 chapters of Judges where Benjamin is wiped out and merges with the Jebusites. Jerusalem is effectively outside of the promises to Abraham but retains the scriptures that come from Abraham. I also had no idea that the text was edited and that there was a tradition of manuscript editors that spring from the Jebusites. The inspired writers after David saw Jerusalem as the seat of evil. This seriously impacts the 1974 Benjamin Seal date because there is effectively NO tribe of Benjamin left to have taken part in that date.

Last Week's Blog

All of this is what I realized last Friday morning when I was proof reading last week's blog. When I worked Bible Tribes those many years ago I was Protestant. Now I am slowly becoming a Testimonian. I have a much better frame of reference for this family of problems.

This new frame of reference is better able to explain the Zionist-Iran war that broke out on February 28, 2026. We must correctly identify Iran and we must correctly identify Israel. When we do that, we can open up a bunch of interesting prophetic stories that inform what is going on. We can then do a better job of explaining what is currently going on at specific dates.

In last week's blog I used a 70 year timeline to explain we are nearing some sort of slow motion end of a 70 year interval that involves modern Israel. In that argument the math is easy to see, but I had to use reversals to explain what is going on in the light of the expected textual stories.

The need for reversals is because I was not correctly understanding Israel. When we get Israel right then the many prophetic stories about this war will simply read correctly and we can just follow them as best as we can. No more mental contortions will be needed to follow the war.

So, let me step you through the stories that we must understand in order to correctly understand Iran and then correctly understand Israel.

Covenant With Abraham

The link here is to Genesis 15 in the BRB. This chapter is the heart of all the fighting over who are Abraham's heirs. This is important because there are a series of promises made to Abraham and to his offspring. So if you are an heir of Abraham, so part of a nation that is an heir to Abraham, then certain things can be expected to go on in your national history.

It is important to note that the faith of Abraham is granted through adoption. When we personally come to faith, then we are adopted into Abraham's family. This is true no matter what nation we live in.

The national view of Abraham's offspring gives us the perspective we need to understand wars, which are always between nations. Ultimately the problem of who controls most nations is the story of Jerusalem. All other nations are either subjected to Jerusalem, or else must stand and fight it.

So Genesis 15 is a long story dealing with the start of the promises to Abraham. It begins with a vision when Joshua appears to Abraham. Abraham is most concerned with not having an heir. Joshua responds that Abraham will have an heir that will come from his own body and that eventually the number of offspring will be so large it will be hard to count. It closes with a footnote that this will also include certain lands within what is now Palestine.

Hagar and Ishmael (BRB)

The link here is to Genesis 16 in the BRB. This is the start of the story of Hagar and Ishmael. In this story Sarai talks Abraham into taking Sarai's maid as a second wife. This so Abraham can have an heir as promised.

This event is driven because Sarai is beyond child bearing age. She is using a technical detail in the promises to Abraham in the previous chapters. Joshua had not named Sarai as the mother of the offspring promised to Abraham.

This goes wrong. There is now competition between Sarai and Hagar. Hagar flees and a king of Joshua appears to her with another group of promises. The name, Ishmael, is given. He will be like a "wild donkey" among men. His hand will be against all. There are other details, but this is enough.

The Covenant

The link here is to Genesis 17 in the BRB. At this chapter we finally get the main restatement and elaboration of the promises to Abraham. There are changes in names for both Abram and Sarai. Abram becomes Abraham. Sarai becomes Sarah. There is a promise of the "contract" that will eventually come from this time forward.

Note that Abraham's new name is central to the audit pattern of inspired text. The future inspired writers will also come from a family line that begins with this promise.

What we are seeing here is the family line that will carry the contract until it becomes known across the planet. This impacts how we understand Christianity taking root in the lost tribes of Jacob. Though the tribes don't know the accurate contract because of the Jebusites, they do naturally want to hold to it.

Sarah is now promised a son in her old age. But there is also a promise to Ishmael, that Ishmael will become exceedingly great himself. And that there will be 12 "princes" that come from him. Ultimately Ishmael will also become a great people.

Hagar and Ishmael Sent Away

The link here is to Genesis 21:8 in the BRB. This is the story where Hagar and Ishmael are sent away. This happened because Sarah saw Hagar mocking so Sarah told Abraham to send away Hagar and Ishmael. Joshua said to Abraham to listen to Sarah, that Isaac will also become a great people.

So by this point we have 2 different great peoples spreading out from Abraham. Bible Tribes tracks the eventual location of only one of those great peoples. Bible Tribes does not (currently) track the other.

Hagar, of course, has trouble as she departs. She then has an encounter with a king of Joshua. The king helps Hagar and then again promises Ishmael will become a great people.

By the end of the chapter we learn Ishmael gets a wife from Egypt. We also learn he grows up in the wilderness and becomes an archer.

At this point we have a major parallel set of promises given to Abraham that point at some other national people group outside of Jacob, so outside of what the seal dates identify as Europe.

The main difference is that Jacob's heirs will be the keepers of the contract. Inspired text, at least the base text, will be created through that branch of Abraham's family tree. That written story will deal mostly with events in Jacob's side of the family line. Much of it will be written by a small group of prophets who are most likely in a single family line, even all the way down to the New Testament.

Ishmael's Sons

There is a final story on what happened to Ishmael. The story is given in Genesis 25:12 as linked here. Ishmael had 12 princes, which would be expected to become 12 modern nations, just like Jacob's heirs.

In this story, we learn Ishmael's original territory was from the "border of Egypt to the gateway of Assyria." This is where he lived before the presence of all of Ishmael's brothers.

Ishmael's brothers are the heirs of Isaac, so the heirs of Jacob, so the Revelation 7 lost tribes. Those tribes held that same territory until the Assyrian deportation when Jacob's tribes were deported and moved away, mostly to Rome.

So where did Ishmael go when Joshua son of Nun brought Jacob's heirs across the Jordan and they arrived in Canaan?

In a single word: east.

Where did Ismael's heirs go after Jacob's heirs were removed to Rome?

In a single word: west.

We know them now, most generally, as the Islamic world. We should also look for 12 specific modern nations. In particular they will include the Palestinians, but also, perhaps, even modern Egypt. Ishmael's mother and wife were from Egypt. So Egypt should be on this list.

As far as I know, this entire list of 12 specific modern nations under Ishmael cannot be found using STEM tools, but we will study this again once the audit and ciphers are done.

Iran

The modern national name Iran is a combination of the scriptural names, Medes and Persians. Those 2 names show up in the prophetic stories we care about now in headlines involving the Iran war.

Is Iran part of the Muslim world? So is Iran under the promises to Abraham via Ishmael? Yes. But we also know from history that Iran is much older.

Iran, so mostly ancient Persia, is older than the stories of Abraham. Persia's history goes back closer to Noah's flood. The ark is just across the border in modern Turkey. Persia was a "walled garden" with high elevation surrounded by mountains. It would have been an ideal place for Noah's heirs to settle down.

So Persia has been inhabited by people long before Ishmael was even born. Doesn't this exclude Iran from being part of Ishmael?

We can answer this by thinking about Europe. There were also Europeans before Jacob's heirs arrived in Rome. Jacob's tribal heirs mixed with the earlier Europeans. This is ultimately called the process of adoption into the promises of Abraham.

Did Ishmael's heirs mix in with earlier peoples? Why would this be any different than Rome?

Finding Ishmael By Signs

Because there are no obvious STEM tools for finding Ishmael, we need to use signs instead. This is the same technique as identifying the tribal heirs of Jacob out in Europe, but without using the timeline. Levi, for example, is "Confederation of the Levites," which we know in English as Switzerland.

The main sign for Ishmael is that he will become like a wild donkey and that he will become an expert archer. See Genesis 16:12 and Genesis 21:20. Those 2 signs are now very evident in Iran.

The real fight over Iran is driven by Zionist goals of Iranian regime change. The Zionists want their own puppet to be running Iran. This goal for Iran is just like Zionist puppet Trump who rules the USA.

This Zionist goal for Iran is subsidiary to their goal to rule the entire world from Jerusalem. How does this goal work? By placing Zionist puppets in all capitals across the world.

In the scriptural vocabulary, the Zionists want to "ride Iran" telling it what to do as a nation. The Shah of Iran was the Zionist's rider for the people of Iran.

Like a wild donkey, Iran bucked off the Zionist Shah a couple times, the last time in 1979. It does not look like Zionists will be riding that donkey any time soon. In fact we can find prophetic passages that suggest this will never happen. Persia will not be ridden. They will buck the Zionists. I will get to that story below.

The Iranians have also mastered modern rocketry. They appeared to have built an almost unlimited supply of rockets and buried them under mountains for safe keeping. In scriptural terms these rocket skills are called "archery." Ishmael is marked by becoming adept at archery. This is Ishmael's weapon of choice. We are seeing that marker for Ishmael now in this war against Iran.

Naphtali

Iran, unlike the rest of the Islamic world, has another deposit of the Abraham related promises. This is coming from Tobit 7:3, where a branch of Naphtali was hauled away at the Assyrian invasion and ended up in what is now Iran.

I should mention that Naphtali in Europe is Germany. In history, Germany had 2 distinct parts, Prussia and Bavaria. They had different cultures and different dialects of German.

After world War II Germany, so Naphtali, was again split into 2 parts. This time, east and west. Iran has 2 ancient parts as well, Media and Persia. These 2 parts were an west/east split.

But once you see a deposit of Naphtali in Iran, you can see that Naphtali is now split into 2 parts, Germany and Iran. Iran, by the way, is a different spelling on Arian. The Germans were into this in Hitler's time as well. Again, marking 2 parts of Naphtali.

So in addition to carrying a share in Ishmael's covenantal promises, Iran also carries a share of Jacob's covenantal promises.

As far as we can tell, there is no other place as special as Iran. Iran carries the full promises to Jacob via Naphtali. This promise involves beautiful words. This is why Iran's leadership is so well educated in the humanities. Iran has a long and important literary tradition. There were times in history when Iran was the only place of higher education. This promise to Naphtali is the basis for why Iran could craft a government that survives assassinations. There is no single point of failure.

Iran is also a unique branch of Islam. This is marking it as also carrying the promises to Ishmael. By signs it would suggest Iran is the natural leader of Ishmael. Iran should eventually become 1 of 12 regional partners, just like Rome was broken up into 12 tribes.

Benjamin

So another part of the riddle of the current war in Iran is understanding modern Israel. The seal date study of Bible Tribes shows a document signing between modern Israel and modern Egypt as having taken place on the expected Benjamin Seal date.

At the time I worked this out, I presumed Benjamin was now Israel and I did not know what to think about Egypt. The other seal date documents from Revelation 12 are between tribes. Usually within tribes. The US Declaration of Independence is an example of a document within the tribe.

What I missed 25+ years ago was how Benjamin was lost before the time of Solomon. Remember, the last 3 chapter of Judges are the story of the elimination of Benjamin as a tribe. This set of stories marks how Benjamin was very similar to Sodom, like modern Tel Aviv. Judges indicates the few surviving fighters from Benjamin merged into Jebus, so they became a part of modern Jerusalem.

The other thing I did not know 25+ years ago was the story of the editors. Those began with 1) Solomon and then 2) Ahab/Jezebel, 3) Nebuchadnezzar, 4) Mordecai, 5) Ezra and 6) Ananias.

Note that these are mostly in and around Jerusalem or else following Jewish influence. These villains create classes of edits in the book we now call the Bible. These villains also create practices in modern nations that mark the hands of Zionists. Let me explain that in more detail.

Solomon

Solomon reigned in a time of peace, but mustered a virtual army to build the temple and his palace. Solomon had an Egyptian wife and we are to think of Solomon as like Pharaoh. Solomon was a builder. He set up the first central bank. Issuing claim checks for silver no longer in the vault is how he paid his slaves. Solomon made silver abundant so he could pay his slaves, nobody had to save silver themselves, they had claims on Solomon's treasure. We know this today as the international banking cartel. We know this as fiat currency. We know this as unrepayable national debt.

Ahab/Jezebel

This king and queen pair worked together to steal Naboth's vineyard. Their primary tools are now called "Lawfare" and "Secret Societies." We see this nearly everywhere to this day. Going to law against political enemies is a marker for modern heirs of this pair of villains. Having a secret group that can answer an evil letter from the queen is also a marker for this pair of villains.

Nebuchadnezzar

This king ran the largest army that we find in the set of villains. Zionists always want to control the world's largest military. They need this to enforce national debt issued to their vassal countries. They need this to increase the range of their empire.

This has moved in modern history, from Britain to the USA. The Zionists eye Russia and China to replace the USA. China, especially, because it has the biggest potential standing army. Thus Nixon opened China to trade, but eventually opened China so it could be conquered. That would be a still future war against China.

Nebuchadnezzar also created the Hebrew alphabet. The story of the hand writing on the wall is the key scripture. Those letters are a shadow cast by a human hand. Everywhere those letters are found, you are looking at the modern impact of a villain, but in particular, Nebuchadnezzar.

Mordecai

Mordecai pimped young women (and perhaps young men) to the king in order to gain access and control over the affairs of the kingdom. We know this now as the Epstein class. Zionist control over Trump, so over this war with Iran, is widely thought to be because Zionists have blackmail over Trump.

Curiously this match from Mordecai could only be made in modern politics as we have seen slow release of the Epstein files. This was not possible to figure out even 5 years ago.

Ezra

Ezra was commissioned by the Persians to setup the Synagogue system. Persians have always cared about literacy. This becomes the basis for weekly public church meetings. (Instead of private, home based meetings and schools.) Ezra's work also becomes the basis for Zionist control of theology. This established a distributed web of intellectual control over what can be publicly known about God.

The link between the Persian king and Ezra's commissioning is a hook we will use to see why Iran should win the current war.

Ananias

Ananias was responsible for editing the New Testament. He created Christianity. His particular gift was "creating narratives" that were strange compositions of otherwise correct truths.

We see the heirs of this villain every time a Zionist puppet opens their mouth in public. This is especially so of politicians who want to quote scripture, like Cruz or Graham.

Nearly every day, Trump changes his public narrative in order to see what sticks. In this activity, Trump is in the tradition of Ananias. All Zionist controlled media works this way too. They are never truth seeking, but narrative building.

Pick a Name?

Though these all spring out of Jebus and the work of the Jebusites, one of these villains will yield the prophetic, scriptural, name for this entire bunch.

The villain that matters most is Nebuchadnezzar. We would not care much about this entire work of Zionists if they did not control armies. So the villain who keeps Zionism working is Nebuchadnezzar. His statue dream, for example, illustrates the control of Zionist over the earth. It is a statue of a king or general after all.

The text does not use the name Nebuchadnezzar. Instead the text uses his kingdom's name: Babylon. We also know this by the name "Bible." Only consonants matter. Babel is Bible. The Bible captures the work of all the editors. Most of us have copies. Most of our friends do too.

Babylon runs slave construction crews using fiat currency. The slaves pay for the work. Babylon uses lawfare and secret societies. Babylon runs armies. Babylon seduces and blackmails the Epstein Class. Babylon sets up false religions. Babylon is always in control of the public narrative.

Finally, the Zionist alphabet, the Hebrew alphabet marks Babylon. Once we see Babel is marked by Hebrew, we can now begin to understand modern Israel.

Separation of Forces Agreement

The link here is to the text for an agreement signed between modern Israel and Egypt on January 18, 1974. This document is landing on the Benjamin Seal date as per the math of Revelation 7. This is the last date and last document in a series of dates and documents running back 144,000 days. The math is particularly tight in this instance. Some documents are off by a few days or months. Not here.

The document indicates that the armies involved have agreed to start pulling back, and have 40 days to begin that work. They agree to work towards a more complete peace agreement in the future. This would happen later, and Sadat, the President of Egypt would be assassinated for making such an agreement.

So from a Protestant Perspective 25+ years ago, which side of this document is Benjamin? Is it Israel or Egypt? In those days the answer was simple. Modern Israel must be Benjamin. Egypt is mostly Muslim so remains outside of the rest of the lost tribes.

But why do we find an external document involving Egypt. Why are we not finding an internal document? Or national foundation document, or something similar? This has remained a very strange case. It is not the same as the other documents in the Seal Date series created by Revelation 7.

Try Again

So with the identification of Ishmael and Babylon I have sketched out in this blog, we can try again to think about this Seal Date and related document. It is a document signed between Israel and Egypt. Who, exactly, is Israel? Who, exactly, is Egypt?

Israel uses the Hebrew Alphabet and follows a religion that is the creation of at least some of the editors. Israel is the modern heirs of Babylon. Israel operates politically following all the tricks of the editors. Israel is peak Zionism. It is the intended world capital for Zionists. It is the returning of the Jebusites.

Egypt is mostly Muslim. They occupy the same general geography as ancient Egypt. By religion they are now part of the heirs of Ishmael. Even better, Ishmael's mother and wife were from this location. So this particular seal date document, last in the series, is involving Ishmael, at least.

Additionally, we have the problem that Benjamin basically disappeared in those last 3 chapters of Judges. Somebody else should be replacing them.

Replacement

The flash of insight I had last week was to see this as indicating that Egypt, so Ishmael is REPLACING Benjamin. Ishmael is being grafted back into Jacob's family tree as part of the process of the creation of the modern nation of Israel.

This replacement, or ingrafting seems to be the lesson of this seal date.

If this flash of insight is correct, the entire story of modern Israel should be explained as the actions of a reborn Babylon against Ishmael. Israel is running some sort of process that brings Ishmael into the family of Jacob.

The written narrative of the heirs of Jacob is most of the text of the Bible. It culminates in the New Testament when Joshua shows up. But it is also the story of how a group of souls are prepared to encounter Joshua. It is a multi-century process that souls go through.

The same process must be running on Ishmael's side. Ishmael will need to be going through the entire set of stories too. So they will also go through their equivalent of the 70 years of captivity. This is just as Jeremiah wrote about. They must settle down for 70 years and wait for their time to return.

So the 70 year intervals that I wrote about in last week's blog involving Israel were reversed because I was looking at the Babylonian side of the story instead of Ishmael's side of the story. My Protestant, so Zionist, mistake.

Modern Israel is Babylon. Jeremiah's care, this time around, is Ishmael, so the Palestinians who are living in Canaan. They were driven out in 1948 by Babylonians. They will return slowly as the Persians defeat Babel and grant them permission to return.

Let me briefly take you again through the basic dates for Israel. Let me sketch out how to think again about the modern history of Israel.

Israeli Declaration of Independence

The link here is to the Wikipedia article dealing with the 1948 Declaration of Independence. This had been a civil war. Now Israel was sovereign.

So this is the "7 times" anniversary of when Babylon invaded Palestine and took sovereignty away from the locals. Now we see history just repeating.

We are taking Ishmael's side and seeing Ishmael suffer the same way as happened in the historical narrative of Jeremiah's day.

Suez Crisis

Taking the wars in order this time. This is the Wikipedia link to the 1956 Suez Crisis. This is matching a "7 times" anniversary of a group of refugees taken away to Babylon.

What military action happened in Jeremiah's day is unclear. In this war, more territory was taken by modern Babylon, increasing national territory. Babylon gained shipping access, but strangely Babylon also caused the closure of the Suez Canal.

In 2026 we are at the 70th anniversary. Babylon should start to be driven back. But most likely later in 2026.

1967 Arab-Israeli War

The link here is to the Wikipedia article for the 1967 war. This was at the "7 times" anniversary of Babylon breaking through Jerusalem's walls.

So for history to be repeating, Israel, so the Zionists are Babylon and they just took the city as a timed historical replay. No need to describe this as a reversal.

Yom Kippur War

The link here is to the Wikipedia article for the Yom Kippur War of 1973. Note curiously this article uses the Israeli war name, so the Babylonian name. It is also known as the 1973 Arab-Israeli War, the Fourth Arab-Israeli War, the October War or the Ramadan War.

This is the war that leads to the seal date document discussed above. It was started by the Arabs. Israel won. This is the "7 times" anniversary of the last group of refugees hauled away to Babylon in Jeremiah's day.

This should be the last time Israel gains actual territory. The are still trying, in Gaza and the West Bank, in Lebanon and in Syria. We will see if this holds.

US Embassy To Jerusalem

This is the link to the Wikipedia article for when the USA moved the US Embassy to Jerusalem. This was under Zionist US President Trump's personal direction.

This is the anniversary that reverses events from 1948. This is an ever so gentle departure from Palestine. 2 different Zionist American diplomatic missions were reduced to 1.

Current War With Iran

The current war with Iran is not yet on any date from the formation wars of modern Israel. We get to the 70th anniversary of the 1956 war later this year.

But in a more general sense, we are starting to see Biblical Persia start to assert itself for a much grander prophetic roll in the region. It is starting to assert itself in such a way that we can see how it might actually defeat Babylon on the 7-times anniversaries when Persia asserts itself very near the end of the Old Testament.

In the scriptural history these events will be dealing with the stories that surround the rebuilding of the Jerusalem Temple. This happened in history through a series of authorizing documents. These were usually issued by Persian kings, so that would be Iranian leaders in our day.

If the analysis I am doing here in this blog is correct, we should see these authorizing documents and the associated events simply repeat again in history. No need to reverse these stories. Iran will simply do it again.

Let me provide links to the highlight stores, at least to get regular readers here familiar what what is to come.

Let me also note that scriptural dates for these events are VERY difficult to establish. These textual stories need audit work and then more careful chart work in order to establish them with high confidence.

In what follows I sketch in the likely 70th anniversary dates given modern dates in Israel. This may not be the correct formula for finding those modern Iran dates. So as of this blog, these dates are only just a guess.

Handwriting On The Wall

The link here is to Daniel 5 in the BRB. This chapter is the story of when Daniel is called in to read mysterious writing on the wall. In the end, the kingdom of Babylon falls to Darius the Mede. This is now western Iran.

Short answer here is that when this story replays, Israel falls to Iran. Darius was age 62. Unclear how to apply that to the timeline at all.

Cyrus Helps Exiles Return

The link here is to Ezra 1 in the BRB. This is the passage where Cyrus, the King of Persia, authorizes the return of a group of exiles to build a house in Jerusalem.

How might this fulfill? Someone in Iran authorizes the refugees created by Babylon, so the actions of Israel, to return to Jerusalem and build a house.

When might this be? Unclear. I would sketch this in at 70 years after the loss of Jerusalem to Babel. So 1967 + 70 = 2037. Probably not in this current war. Probably after World War III finishes.

There must be a missing building in Jerusalem for this commissioning to happen. I would expect loss of the religious buildings in Jerusalem to happen at some point first. Maybe soon.

Arthasastha And Ezra

This is another event dealing with the restoration of the building in Jerusalem. The chapter linked here is Ezra 7 in the BRB. In this case the Persian king authorizes Ezra.

This is complex because Ezra was an ancient villain. If Zionists are in control of Iran then this would be another Zionist. If Islam is in control of Iran, then this would be Muslim. In any case this is restoring religious practices.

Nehemiah City Walls

The link here is to Nehemiah 1 in the BRB. This is the start of the story of Nehemiah. This is also before king Arthasastha of Persia. In this case the king grants permission to rebuild Jerusalem's walls. This is more of a civics works project.

Note that this would be the final formal event between the king of Persia and Jerusalem. This would have a reasonable timing at 1974 + 70 = 2044 or soon thereafter.

In all of these cases the refugees being returned are those who were taken away 70+ years before. So the people we know today as Palestinians.

Daniel's 70 Weeks

Let me close this long Bible study with the final reference to the 70 years of Jeremiah. Daniel saw how Jeremiah's letter involved 70 years. That story is linked here, to Daniel 9 in the BRB. Eventually Daniel prays about that letter which had indicated it would be 70 years as refugees in Babel.

In response to that prayer, Daniel gets a visitation. In that visitation he is told there will be 70 weeks of years that follow. So from the issuing of the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem, so after that Nehemiah story, perhaps around 2044, there will start another 70 * 7 = 490 more years.

Turns out those years run quietly until we reach the 7 times offsets of the New Testament. So another 500 or so years until the calendar replay of the ascension of Joshua. That was when those who were watching were told Joshua would return in like manner.

Every wacko who is currently hoping for Jesus' return are off by about 500 years, at the very least.

What I have sketched out in this blog is a general way to view modern Israel and Iran. It shows how the text wants Iran to become a regional power and gain enough control over Israel in order to dictate terms to a conquered territory. The Palestinians should end up returning.

These textual stories do not demand a full removal of Israel, but it would suggest Israel is not the same once this war is over. It would also suggest all the other reaches of Zionism are also seriously degraded. Russia is fighting the same war against Europe.

We will return to this Bible Study in future weeks as needed. I have spelled out the basic parameters to identify the parties and see in general terms what is to come.

Iran History

I went looking for introductory videos on Iran in order to get a little better educated. Here are a couple that readers here might find useful.

Brief History of Iran

The link here is to a 20 minute Youtube video covering the entire history of Iran. Most Americans do not know any of this. Not much about Iran is taught in school.

Note the term "Iran" combines the scriptural "Medes" and "Persians." Note Iran shares a language family that maps to parts of Europe. This adds to the story of Ishmael and Jacob both sharing in Abraham's promises. Note the history of invaders of Iran. Only a few were ever successful, most were driven out.

Geography Of Iran

This is another short Youtube video that covers the modern geography and major cities of Iran. More background for understanding how strange Iran is compared to most other countries. Mostly satellite photos and tourist photos, but also a good overview.

Match Dates

We were not watching for any particular dates this past week. The main event was Trump doing a TACO. (TACO = Trump Always Chickens Out) He had said he was going to attack Iranian energy supplies in 5 days. He stopped for those 5 days then he added another 10 days. By Friday, so the start of the new 10 days, on the Islamic Sabbath, he had gone back on this and attacked such places anyway. Next week should be a mess with Iran retaliating across most GCC countries and Israel.

This is slowly inching out across the 40 days of rain. The bombs continue to fall.

Watch Dates

Peeking ahead, the next date is 2026-04-19. Noah's rains should stop falling around this time. But note, smaller missiles were starting ahead. So we will see what happens. In Noah, in 1991, in Iraq, this was a 40 day ground invasion. Trump is preparing for such an invasion of Iran.

Shop Work

I started this week with an upgrade to the 3d design files for the Tribes exhibit. The Tribe of Benjamin is now shown as replaced by Ishmael. I also cleaned up color schemes and scaling to match current practices. I also cleaned up the various tables with indented rows so they are easier to read.

This is the next exhibit to go through the 3d printers. Hopefully I can get this started next week.

The rest of the week, I have been in the shop, but doing software work. Like an old man, playing chess, I needed to focus when working on tricky code. This has not been an easy week to focus, especially with crazy headlines nearly every day.

Several more iterations on diary code rebuild did finally happen this week. I found a series of problems outside of my own code and had to figure out a work around. I tried to add digital photos to the diary, but ran into a bunch of problems. Because of other pressing work, I have reserved work dealing with photos for a future time.

The key addition this week was completing the code needed in our build environment in order to produce apps that involve timelines based on the Paleo Calendar. This includes automatic generation of personal watch dates, which I have been studying for about a year. This includes a much better way to generate paleo calendar related indexes for diary entries. Software to generate these diary entries is a much better use of my own future diary keeping time.

This build environment work is currently only used in my personal diary. But it is mostly ready for a future charts app which eventually becomes the Crown exhibit.

I am still very backed up with more code work from our trip to Virginia. Ryan is still waiting on me. I expect another couple weeks of heavy coding.

Headline Review

The following caught my attention this week.

Nawfal and Escobar

The link here is to a Youtube video on Mario Nawfal's channel. This was streamed live on March 20, 2026. They are discussing the impacts of the events in the Iran war. Nawfal was born in Lebanon. He holds Australian citizenship. He is located in Dubai, UAE. He is not living in a happy place.

Nawfal is closer to this war than Europe. He is figuring out his world will never be the same. The rest of the world is farther away, and will figure this out over the weeks to come. He is obviously trying to understand what is happening in order to understand what he might need to do.

I am putting this here so you can study Mario's steps of grieving. He asks Escobar about Trump making this better? Surely Trump would not wreck the world.

My short answer: Trump is a member of the Epstein class, so Trump is an active member of a death cult. Grow up.

Human nature wants regression to the mean, so a return to normal. Sometimes something happens that is so bad, the world cannot return to normal. This past few weeks is one of those events. We have only just begun.

Suez Moment

This is a second Nawfal video, nearly a week later. Nawfal is slowly realizing how bad the world will become. He is growing up. He lives very close to the war. His future life will soon become very different.

My grandmother lived through World War I as a young girl in Germany. Her German father had died with a heart attack at the start of the war, likely upon receiving first news of the start of that war. Her English mother could not escape Germany until the war was over. My grandmother told me many war stories of living through that war as a girl, especially the trouble her mother had even finding food.

The day Hitler invaded Poland, my grandmother was now pregnant and living in Seattle. When she heard that news over the radio she went into early labor giving birth to one of my aunts. She knew how horrible that second war was to become. Nobody she then knew understood what was about to happen. She did.

The third war just started. Nobody understands what is about to happen. Two times in the last 10 days, personal lots have taken me to the story in Revelation where 1/3 of mankind will die.

Nawfal is still unaware of the trouble ahead. Watch his body language. His mind can see the trouble. But his emotion just does not want to accept what is coming. This is just like how everyone in 1939 was unaware of the trouble still ahead.

Note that the guest is Luke Groman. Luke lists off how the world is seriously changing, already with no way back. Groman has a better grasp of the future than nearly any guest on any podcast this past few weeks. This is an excellent summary of some of the trouble ahead. This is, of course, provided the war only stops soon.

Dome False Flag

This post on Telegram contains more on widespread rumors of a false flag against religious facilities in Jerusalem.

American False Flag

The link here is to a post on X, one of many, that hints at plans for a false flag in the USA in order to draw Americans into the war. This one suspects a backpack nuke in NYC.

JD Vance On The Same

JD Vance is doing narrative formation for the same event. Again, more evidence of a high level, planned, Zionist, false flag.

Iranian Spokesman Trolling

The Iranians have much better narrative control than mentally deranged Trump. The link here is to a post on X with a great troll video. We normally see this man behind a podium.

Diego Garcia

The link here is to a Geopolitics Prime post on Telegram with a graphic showing the first known Iranian missiles launched at Diego Garcia.

The Iranians would later claim this was not their missile. This may have been an Israeli submarine launched missile intended to bring parts of Europe into the war on Israel's side.

I tend to trust the Iranians. They are cogent and not demonstrating mental illness.

California Oil

Turns out California gets much of its oil from the Persian Gulf. This link is to a long article on Zero Hedge dealing with Chevron's attempts to source fuel from Texas. This is compounded by Zionist control of California.

Alexander Dugin: Missiles

The link here is to a post on X where Dugin likens the Iranian missiles falling on Israel to Sodom. This is supported in the modern age by how Tel Aviv is considered by many as one of the most homosexual cities on earth.

But, remember who Israel is? The last 3 chapters of Judges is the formation story for our modern Babylonians. Those chapters actually echo back to Sodom. Dugin's position is supported by the text.

I have not discussed in this blog how the story of Sodom in Genesis sits within the story of Ishmael. This odd literary construction suggests Ishmael's archery is the implicit mechanism against cities like Sodom. It also suggests the need to pray for the righteous individuals who may be able to escape. In Lot's case, he escapes the place, but not the sexual patterns. Trump is said to have had the same patterns in his own family as Lot had in his.

Iraq Fracturing

The link here is to a post on Telegram where we learn that the parts of Iraq in support of Iran are now free to defend themselves against the Zionists.

US Draft Age to 32

The link here is to a post on Telegram. It details how the USA has raised draft age to 32 and maximum enlistment age to 42. They have also relaxed rules against enlistees with drug convictions. The USA is planning ahead for a world war. This is more evidence that Iran and Russia will not be short wars.

Crows Leave Tel Aviv

The link here is to a post on X with video of the departure of crows from Tel Aviv. This is a well known ancient omen that the war will go bad. Crows don't like the loosing side. The post gives a few other details on the history of this omen.

By the way, the X user is "cirnosad" who has been particularly spot on with his commentary on the war. I would recommend following him.

More Weapons

The link here is to a post on X dealing with public statements by an important Russian general. He indicates that Iran has more offensive weapons that Iran has currently not used. This is being stated as a warning to the west to be careful fighting Iran.

Cuba

One of the most common patterns of Zionist speech is to blame the victim. Think of Joshua's trial. In any case, the link here is to a post on X where Rubio blames Cuba for why people must leave there to be successful. It is the Zionist blockade that causes this pattern. It is Rubio's fault.

Canada: Quoting Bible is Hate Speech

The link here is to a post on X detailing a proposed Canadian law making quoting of the Bible into a hate speech. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

Terafab

The link here is to a Solving The Money Problem video on X which is a super cut of Elon Musk introducing the Terafab at Austin Texas. At least someone has a positive view of the future. He is out to build a chip fab in Austin to make AI and space specific chips. Much more in the video.

Green Fireball

The link here is to a post on X detailing a recent green fireball that came down in California. The post notes there were another 8 in the previous week. Green fireballs can mark angelic and/or kingly visitations. Ryan and I have seen this several times. Perhaps in these recent cases, they are moving people from future Sodom locations.

More Later,

Israel's Timeline

Phil Stone — Fri, 20 Mar 2026 21:40:13 GMT

This blog looks at Israel's prophetic timeline. This informs the current war with Iran. Before that, details on an update to the BRB. Then match dates from this past week and a headline review. Finally, there is an important footnote.

Matthew 5 (BRB)

If you are familiar with the Bible you know that many passages within the Bible have the same general content provided in more than 1 place. The Gospels, for example, are full of content that is duplicated in more than one place.

It is a standing question if an inspired writer would be intentionally copying content from some other location. We would think this would not be done by inspired authors.

This hunch means that only 1 such parallel passage is likely to be inspired. So we would expect audit related work to show only 1 such parallel passage is inspired. Or, for letter perfect copies, that only 1 such copy connects cleanly to its neighboring passages.

In the printed Bible world these parallel passages are often studied with Bible Harmonies. We have long had a Bible Harmony app that functions for this purpose.

This week the BRB app itself gained story level cross links that allow quick and efficient study of parallel passages without needing to leave the BRB app itself.

You can use the link above, to Matthew 5 in the BRB, to see this in action. That chapter is the start of the Beatitudes which is also found in Luke 20:20-26. Under the story heading at the top of that chapter you will see a link to the Luke passage. This takes the reader directly to that parallel passage.

At the other end of that link there is also a link back. This makes it very easy to move back and forth between parallel passages.

There are places where there are more than 1 parallel passage, and these end up with multiple links. You can scroll down in Matthew 5:14 and see the story of a Lamp on a Stand. This is also found in Mark 14:21 and Luke 8:16. There are links to both of those locations under the story heading at Matthew 5:14. Those other passages provide the links to move around or move back.

If you think about that Matthew 5:14 passage you can see the stories above and below are NOT found anywhere else. This is a hint that the duplicated story may have originated elsewhere and was brought in to break up a story that was trouble for Ananias. In any case there are other possible editor motives and patterns and perhaps this story was copied around. In any case, these links provide instant awareness to the problems the editing process of the Bible left behind in the texts passed down to us by history.

This is work Ryan has been doing in preparation for audit. The links across the Gospels are mostly in place. There are similar links in the Old Testament which will also get added to the BRB in future weeks. This new feature is not yet under option control, which will eventually be added.

The work is tedious because it involves adding story headings and thus changing story numbers, which ripples out across the text itself.

Problems of Hormuz

The Zionist assassination of Iran's supreme leader on February 28, 2026, was the immediate cause for Iran's closure of the Strait of Hormuz to nearly all ship traffic. This choked off around 20 percent of the world's supply of petroleum and related products. This has never happened before. Iran had found and used the Zionist's Achilles Heal.

Depending on sources, there appears to have been no planning for this, or else this was well planned with the Zionist's goal being to bring down the world economy. We will never know for sure what thought went into planning this event. In any case, the Strait of Hormuz ended up closed.

This closure impacts the Petrodollar and it impacts users of oil products coming from GCC loading ports within the Persian Gulf. This is very serious because it could trigger famine in many regions of the planet. This will also trigger a relatively sudden, painful and permanent shift to renewable sources of energy. The risk of this ever happening again is something no one will want to bear.

This week, John Helmer was on the Dialog Works Podcast and he cited sources indicting that the Chinese demanded the USA explain how many days of supply existed outside of Hormuz. Helmer suggested Bessent calculated available oil supplies located outside of Hormuz will run out by around April 1, 2026. Though sources by late this week were showing fuel out signs across Asia already. Bessent's date is likely national level outages.

This is apparently the date the USA is working towards to end the Iran war. This is why Trump's trip to China has been delayed beyond that date. This is why we see so much panic on the American side, with Trump making stuff up nearly every time he opens his mouth.

Helmer also noted that Trump and his team are also likely to be furiously trying to stop the Israelis from using a nuke against Iran. Iran is very carefully managing the escalatory ladder. Iran is matching the Zionists by only ever retaliating from attacks the Zionists started. Once the Zionists nuke Iran, Iran will start nuking targets across the region. The Geneva Convention and UN charters absolve nations of guilt when they are responding to aggressive acts by others towards their country. Iran is very carefully following the rules of war and only retaliating. They are carefully saying why ahead of each new wave of missiles.

One of the strange headlines this past week was the appearance of an AI generated phantom version of Netanyahu. And even worse, most alternative media commentators started strangely claiming Netanyahu was still alive. We did seem to get a man in a Netanyahu Halloween costume reading scripts from behind a podium.

In any case, Helmer also suggested that Netanyahu needs to remain alive so his removal can be offered in negotiations with Iran. As if the Iranians don't follow the internet. This would be why everyone that matters in the west is going along with Israeli fiction.

On the bigger issue, I don't expect full on nuclear war between super powers in this prophetic season. But use of nukes between the Zionists and Iran is different. I do not have any specific prophetic words which would inform that venue and the use of nukes. It is also very possible that the Zionists will follow with a 911 style false flag in order to rally popular support for a war against Iran. Tucker, and many others, are warning of this.

Possible Timing Of Hormuz

From what we know so far in terms of active timeline dates, we would look to a reopening of Hormuz around the end of rain from Noah, so around April 19, 2026, or else Hormuz could be reopened the end of the 150 days of Noah, so around mid August, 2026. So the people around Trump are not at all likely to meet an end of war by April 1. Trump's men appear to be foolish dreamers.

Of course Hormuz may have a timeline of its own. And even if reopened, there may not be working oil terminals. Headlines this week involved Zionist strikes on Iranian gas facilities, and Iran, following strict rules of war, proceeded to retaliate against various GCC facilities that process and ship LNG. Much of that LNG once went to Europe. One particularly important facility in Qatar will take 3 to 5 YEARS to rebuild. Hormuz may just become a symbol, with no actual resumption of real oil supplies once it is reopened. There may simply be no working terminals from which to ship oil.

The Israel Timeline

But, there is yet another timeline that at least informs some of what is going on now with war in West Asia. That timeline involves the modern history of Israel itself. I have had this headline in my head for a long time, but never have I sat down and written it out. I did so this week and want to share the details with you here. It turns out, 2026 is the expected year for yet another major war involving Israel. If their history accurately repeats, as it has previously, then this current war only gets interesting later this year.

Let me run the details of the Israel Timeline and key math. This same math will also inform some possible future dates involving Israel and the Temple.

As happened in history, Persia also looks to repeat history and dictate terms for rebuilding Temple Mount. There are possible dates for this, but not in this prophetic season. It waits until after the big war in 2029. That said, Persia needs to be restored as a world power, which is what this current war will likely accomplish.

NOTE: I am going to show you day accurate math involving Modern Israel. The dates that follow are Paleo Calendar dates with the matched Gregorian dates in (). You can use the calendar app, so cal.paleo.in, to verify and to count days should you be interested. I am going to only hit the key days.

Many of the linked Wikipedia articles have other dates which can also be cross checked against historical dates in Israel and may also inform current headlines. Remember that the modern Gregorian calendar does not break days at the same time of day, so there is always some slop in these calculations.

Israeli Declaration of Independence

The link here is to the Wikipedia article dealing with the formal establishment of modern Israel as a nation. There was a formal process described in that article. At the end of the various meetings there was a document signed. That document is called the Declaration of Independence. It was signed 12939-04-03 (1948-05-14).

Note how national document signings are often important. The whole Seal Date system of Revelation 7 works this way. Document signings are used to mark points in prophetic history.

Look carefully at the Paleo Calendar date of 12939-04-03. This is the 4th month, 3rd day. If you know Israel history, you know they remember the fall of Jerusalem to Babylon on the 9th of Av. Av being the Hebrew name for the 4th month. This event is recorded in Jeremiah 36:22. They lost the inspired calendar, so they are lost in time. The inspired writers never use a Lunar Calendar.

This modern document signing is about 6 days from an exact theoretical match to a modern 4th month, 9th day.

Those 6 days of difference is going to be caught up in the response to that signing as word spread across the Arab world.

Note that before this document was signed, the region was said to be in a civil war. After it was signed, the conflict was now called the Arab-Israeli war. The Jews still celebrate this each year as Independence Day. They use 5 Iyar on the Hebrew Calendar.

The Arabs also celebrate this event. But they use the following day, so May 15, and they use the Gregorian Calendar to mark Nakba Day each year.

We will return to this document signing below. Let me now turn to the other main day accurate date in the formation history of Modern Israel.

1967 Arab-Israeli War

The link here is to the Wikipedia article for the 1967 Arab Israeli war, also known as the 6 Day War. It was fought from the 5th to the 10th of June, 1967. That last day of that war is what matters to us here. That date is 12958-04-09 (1967-06-10). This last date of the war was a Saturday. You can see the Paleo Calendar using the same month/day pair as the fall of the city of Jerusalem to Babylon.

If this war is unfamiliar to you, I would recommend reviewing the article. In particular, there is a map at the top which shows Israel's internationally recognized borders in dark green.

At this war, Israel expanded borders to include Egypt's Sinai, Gaza, the West Bank and the Golan heights. This is when Israel regained the Old City of Jerusalem and regained Temple Mount. Previously, the international border had been along the western edge of the old city of Jerusalem.

Note that there is a 19 year difference between the War of Independence. Note how this 19 year difference is essentially to the day.

These 2 events that I've linked above are a modern, but reversed, match to the 19 years between the time when Nebuchadnezzar had made Jerusalem a vassal state and the time when he conquered the city. We are seeing the modern undoing, or reversal, of those ancient headline events.

The United Nations, recognizing Israel on 12940-04-05 (1949-05-11), note the date, off by 4 days, was restoring national sovereignty to Israel which had been lost "7 times" earlier.

Note there is a reversal when these modern formation events are matched against the ancient stories of the loss of Jerusalem. There are 4 such modern reversals, 1948, 1956, 1967 and 1973/4, when Israel was getting land restored that had been lost "7 times" earlier.

Shifting to 70 Years

After Jerusalem was hauled to Babel, there was a 70 year time of captivity. This is referenced in many places, including 2 Chronicles 36:21, Jeremiah 25:11, 12,29 and Daniel 9:2. Jeremiah wrote a letter, recorded in Jeremiah 29, that tells readers to settle down and raise families because it would be 70 years while the people were away.

In ancient times, this 70 year interval appears to count out 4 different 70 year offsets. These mark events dealing with the restoration of ancient Jerusalem. This is mostly recorded in Ezra and Nehemiah, though there are details in other places. The 2nd temple, of course, was built in this time as well as the restoration of Jerusalem's walls.

In your head you should see that in ancient times the 70 year offset represents the time from being hauled away, until the time of returning. Note especially that Ezra's commissioning letter, restoring the temple services, is a grant by the Persian King Cyrus.

At the end of 70 modern years from the original events that formed modern Israel, we also expect to see a reverse of the founding events in Israel. These will in some way echo the account of the return to Jerusalem in Ezra and Nehemiah's day.

So the same topics at the start of Modern Israel should have some sort of reversal once 70 years are passed.

Ultimately all we are doing is following the "7 times" offsets implied by Leviticus 26. For accuracy, we are doing this using what are now established modern dates and then running forward by modern 70 year intervals.

The best and first example of those expected modern headline dates involves moving the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

US Embassy To Jerusalem

The link here is to the Wikipedia article on the US Embassy in Jerusalem. It had originally been located in Tel Aviv. The United States Congress passed legislation in 1995 to move this embassy to Jerusalem.

But no US President before Trump would actually carry out the move. The problem was how this was an American endorsement of the land captured by Israel in the 1967 war. Trump is a Zionist, of course. Trump finally carried out the move.

There had been an American Consulate in the same Jerusalem building. So this was mostly just moving people and signage. The mission of that consulate and of the embassy were formally merged a few months after the physical move of the Embassy from Tel Aviv.

The new Embassy was formally opened to the public in Jerusalem on 13009-04-10 (2018-05-14) intentionally set to be the 70th Gregorian anniversary of formation of Israel as a state.

This was a Monday, and 1 day after that theoretical 4th month 9th day. Note that workweeks in Israel run Sunday through Thursday. So Sundays normally mark the start of the work week. So this opening date was not exactly the start of the normal Israeli work week.

Gregorian years are generally a little longer that Paleo years. In this case we can see a tight prophetic alignment between the opening of that Embassy and the formation of Israel.

This gives us some confidence that running Jeremiah's 70 years is the correct way to track modern headlines.

But how are we to think of this move?

The US Embassy was in Tel Aviv. After this move it was in Jerusalem. This looks like a consolidation to Jerusalem and building the Israeli capital. But the prophetic wants this to be some sort of reversal. The USA was LEAVING internationally recognized Israeli territory for an occupied territory.

This was NOT as severe a change in geography and direction as in 1948. But the direction is matching how we are to think about the headline. Either the USA is conquering Jerusalem, or the main territory of Israel is being abandoned.

Temple Mount

So the 1967 dates related to Temple Mount will also likely have a 70 year offset for a reversed replay. The end of the 6 day war, so 12958-04-09 (1967-06-10), will offset by 70 years as well. We can anticipate that date as 13028-04-09 (2037-04-03).

What would we expect? The reversal of gaining the Old City of Jerusalem. The reversal of gaining Temple Mount.

This is still about 11 years away so it is not that interesting at least in the short term. It is several years after the Noah flood dates starting in 2029, so after what we expect will be nuclear war. So the world may be VERY different by this date.

BUT, the Ezra commissioning letter is the most reasonable document for informing that prophetic headline date.

Importantly, this temple rebuilding work was authorized by a Persian king. Iran looks to be coming back to international stature and looks to end up with enough authority over the West Asia region to be the agent behind these future events. It should still have that power 11 years from now.

This seriously informs the current war with Iran. Iran looks to gain much international authority never seen in the modern era. (Or else Iran gains a Zionist deep state king.)

Iran looks to be returning to their historical place in the family of nations. Iran should be expected to regain that authority at the loss of the Zionist west, especially of the other lost tribes and the Zionists running the show in secret.

Others?

There are other events in the history of modern Israel that might also have 70 year offsets. Perhaps even to the day.

There were 4 formation wars of modern Israel. These are prophetically 7 times echos of various captivities explained in Jeremiah 52:28-30.

These captivities reversed in the wars of 1948, 1956, 1967 and 1973. I have dealt with 2 of them above. The other 2 wars, so in 1956 and 1973 should also have 70 year offsets and work just like the others.

The wars in 1956 and 1973 do not have 4th month 9th day timing like the formation of Israel and the recovery of temple mount. But, they would still be expected to be day accurate and at 70 years.

The war in 1973 should offset 70 years to something like a modern replay of Nehemiah's commissioning. So we would watch for a rebuilding of Jerusalem's walls in 2043. This is not particularly interesting right now.

Finally, the Israeli war in 1956 has a 70 year anniversary in 2026. So, that war in 1956 deserves close attention now because we have already started a prophetic rerun in some way when the Zionists bombed Iran on February 28, 2026. Let me review the history so we can calculate modern dates for the exact 70th anniversaries.

Suez Crisis

The link here is to the Wikipedia article that explains the war involving Israel in 1956. This war has a bunch of different names. It is generally called the Suez Crisis in the Zionist west. It is also known as the Second Arab-Israeli war, or the Tripartite Aggression or the Sinai War.

That article indicates the war began on 12947-10-03 (1956-10-29) and ended on 12947-10-12 (1956-11-07). So that war ran 1 week and 2 days.

The war started when Israel attacked and defeated Egypt.

The main territorial change in 1956 was Israel gaining occupation of the Gaza Strip and gaining occupation of the Sinai Peninsula. Egypt had occupied those territories previously.

The end of that war marked the opening of the Straits of Tiran to Zionist shipping.

This 1956 war also triggered the brief closing of the Suez Canal.

At this point you should start to see the parallels from 1956 to 2026. We need to go deeper to see the details. We would also expect prophetic reversals in some way this time around, so we need to know the details of what happened back then in order to understand what might happen now.

Closure of the Suez Canal (1956-1957)

The link here is to the Wikipedia article on the closure of the Suez Canal in 1956. You can read the particulars there, along with links to related articles.

Egypt had blockaded the Straits of Tiran to Israeli shipping in 1948. So this blockade had gone on for the 8 years since the founding of Israel. So there was already a shipping crisis for Israel. But also, Egypt had nationalized the Suez Canal on 12947-06-28 (1956-07-26). So Egypt had taken away that canal from the Zionists in London who had owned the canal.

After that war, the Suez Canal became the international border between Egypt and Israel. So the canal was closed from November of 1956 until April of 1957, when it reopened to traffic.

Note the canal was again closed after the war in 1967 and remained closed into 1975. There are 2 times when that canal has been closed to shipping. Be careful not to confuse those 2 very different closures.

Much of Europe's oil passed through the Suez in 1956. Oil to Europe was thus blocked during that war. Most of the rest of Asia was not yet industrialized, so that closure did not impact the planet.

Does this problem of shipping, closing of the Suez Canal and of the Strait of Tiran sound familiar to the current war with Iran? Yes.

We look to be trading the Straits of Tiran for the Strait of Hormuz on this 70 year offset. Maybe we should say we are trading the Straits of Tiran for the Straits of Iran? I digress. So where are the Straits of Tiran?

Straits of Tiran

The link here is to the Wikipedia article for this interesting spot. There is a detailed map in that article. Turns out this is at the south end of the Gulf of Aqaba. You know this as the body of water that Moses famously led his people across.

After the founding of Israel in 1948, the Egyptians blocked the Strait of Tiran to ships heading to Israel at the north end of the Gulf of Aqaba. So by the 1956 war, that strait had been closed for essentially 8 years.

So this was a choke point going into the Gulf of Aqaba, just like Hormuz is the choke point going into the Persian Gulf.

These are the basic features of that 1956 war with Israel. We would expect some sort of reversal, but which still rhymes with events in 1956.

70 Year offsets

To see where that 1956 war should replay this time around, we start by running 70 year offsets from the 1956 war dates.

So the start of that war, 12947-10-03 (1956-10-29) goes 70 years forward to 13017-10-03 (2026-10-22). The end of that war, 12947-10-12 (1956-11-07), goes 70 years forward to 13017-10-12 (2026-10-30).

The nationalization of the Suez canal, which caused trouble for the Zionists in Europe at the time, was 12947-06-28 (1956-07-26). It goes 70 years forward to 13017-06-28 (2026-07-19).

For that 1956 war to line up day accurately with the current war with Iran we need to see the current war stretch well into this year. Perhaps this is charting out the dates for a Zionist backed ground invasion of Iran? The 1956 war was also a Zionist ground invasion.

If this current war with Iran does stretch out to these dates later this year, this is VERY BAD NEWS for the industrial world. There will likely be limited heating in Europe next winter. There is likely a 1970s grade gas shock coming to the USA. Asia is also headed for serious trouble. Africa risks famine.

Our current Noah Flood date was 13017-02-17 (2026-03-10). We need to run 150 days to come to the next Noah date. 13017-07-17 (2026-08-07). This is still not yet all the way to the anniversaries of the 1956 war.

Note also that the Suez Canal is not currently involved in the Iran war. But, the Houthi's are available to shut shipping there should they be requested to do so by Iran. So it too could end up shut at some point later this year.

Long War? Another War?

This date math from 1956 strongly suggests the current war with Iran may well run longer than anyone might currently hope. Or else, there is a second war with Israel, perhaps from Egypt, later this year. We will see.

NOW, let me shift to prophetic headlines from this past week. Trump has been going mad. We might now be able to characterize his madness. Let me explain.

World War II Parallels

In previous blogs I have discussed the structure of Resurrection Sunday. That day overlays a 30 year interval that we are now within. On that day, Joshua starts making limited appearances and demands a recounting of the events that had happened across the previous week. That previous week, of course, is known as Passion Week.

For us in our day Passion Week is roughly 210 years long and best marked by World War II. The 3 hours of darkness at the height of that week crosses roughly the years 1941 to 1944.

We are now in a prophetic replay of Resurrection Sunday, and we would expect some sort of replay of World War II itself. Joshua's demand to look back at Passion Week is telling us to look for a replay of the key parts of that week again in our day.

So, events from World War II should be showing up as some sort of shadow in the headlines. It also looks like we have several possible timelines to reframe headlines from World War II.

These can conceptually land across what is going now in Iran, so following the Kings/Plagues or Noah precursor timelines, or else World War II will be seen again following New Testament stories mostly in 2028.

We have a short passion week rerun in that year. Or else World War II can follow Noah stories starting in 2029.

World War II is not an area where I have done much prior timeline research. I saw the pattern about the time I also saw problems with the text. I really need an audited text first before going deep on this.

But conceptually we should be looking for headlines that generally look like replays of events during World War II. Right now we would especially be looking for events near the START of World War II. If we can find those, we then know to get serious about watching for the whole show to run again now.

There have now been 2 headlines in this war with Iran that match the start of World War II. This is game on. My work load is becoming crushing. Let me list those headlines here for a permanent record.

USA/Israel Bomb Iran

The war against Iran began on February 28, 2026. That is the day when Israel, using the USA as its vassal, decided to start bombing Iran. This had been Netanyahu's publicly stated dream since at least 1996. It was in 1996 that Netanyahu claimed Iran was weeks away from getting a nuclear bomb. There were a bunch of religious nut cases on Capital Hill that were agreeing with this insanity.

I cannot give a link, but the first link to World War II was given by Larry Johnson on one of his appearances on Dialog Works. Larry compared this sneak attack of Iran as like the start of World War II. This modern headline matches September 1, 1939, when Hitler attacked Poland. Both were sneak attacks. Both started World Wars.

At the time I heard this comment I dismissed it because there is an issue of scale for such a claim. Surely some despot somewhere has done something similar to Hitler in the past 85 years. So an interesting point, but this was not yet a serious proof that World War II was running again.

Kharg Island: Pearl Harbor

But then, there was reports of an attack early last Saturday by the Zionists against Iran's Kharg Island. Note, local time at the island was already on Saturday, 2026-03-14, which was our main watch date for the weekend. News had come in to the western USA late on Friday.

This was at least our expected headline for the replay of the death of Abijah. Early reports did not explain how serious of an attack this would become. This is a main oil exporting hub for Iran.

One of the Youtube videos with commentary on that attack called that island a "pearl." That nickname was used as though it was a well known nick name for Kharg island.

I did a search on nicknames for that island to see if this is a known nick name. There are 2 well known nick names for Kharg Island.

Forbidden Fruit

Kharg Island is called the "Forbidden Island" because it has a significant Iranian military presence. This makes sense. But it triggers a different story. Trump just ate the "Forbidden Fruit." So Trump gets tossed out of Paradise?

There was yet another Youtube video dealing with Iran which used the "Paradise" as a general nick name for Persia. This is because the term, in Persian, means "Walled Garden." This applies to ancient Persia because the mountains of Iran cause it to become a huge, naturally, walled garden.

So bombing Kharg Island tells us the Zionists have eaten the forbidden fruit and will be kicked out of paradise. That is already fun. It does imply another hidden timeline, but save that for later.

Pearl Harbor

The second nick name for Kharg Island is also amazing. Let me quote the entire search result, "Kharg Island is also known as 'The orphan pearl of the Persian Gulf' – A poetic title coined by Iranian writer Jalal Al-e-Ahmad in the 1960s, highlighting its isolation and value."

More searching found that Kharg Island is an actual ancient source of pearls. So that 1960s author was building on an ancient feature of the island.

So Trump just bombed Pearl Harbor? Insane.

World War II Is Now Active Again

So the resurrection Sunday stories demand watching for headline replays from Passion Week, especially World War II. Now, Trump, apparently following orders from his Zionist handlers, has now attacked Iran just like Hitler attacked Poland. And, Trump has now attacked Kharg Island just like Japan attacked Pearl Harbor.

Trump is now Hitler and the Emperor of Japan, all rolled into 1.

End of World War II

John Mearsheimer also commented this week that the nuclear bombing of Japan, part of the US military strategy of carpet bombing civilians, is NOT what caused Japan to surrender. Japan surrendered because the Soviets invaded a northern Japanese island. That island was lost by Japan to the Soviets between the dates for the 2 nuclear bombs that the USA set off in Japan. Nuclear weapons do not end wars. It is an American fiction to think so. It does take a ground invasion to win real wars.

Russia was responsible for winning both war fronts in World War II. The United States just creates narratives of success, not real success.

Once we replay World War II to the point where nukes are used, we can maybe guess that we have ended the World War II replay and are now into uncharted nuclear war. So current timing better fits Trump's bombing of Kharg Island as Pearl Harbor. Around 4 years or so still remain.

Timeline puzzle pieces are starting to fall into place.

It is perhaps best to consider that World War III is now on. It is not yet impacting everyone's lives. That will come soon enough.

Match Dates

Trump's Bombing of Kharg Island was the match for the expected replay of the death of Ahijah on 2026-03-14. It was still late on the 13th in the USA when news came of the attack.

Trump was "having fun."

This was the replay of an ancient king with an unusually short reign. It was a small little island.

The trouble was Iran's retaliation.

The world's energy supplies began to be destroyed at this date. Trump would bomb Iran's main natural gas terminals a day or so later which would bring Iranian retaliation and damage to the food supply of much of earth.

Watch Dates

Peeking ahead, the next watch date is 2026-04-19. The rains of Noah's flood should continue to fall until around that date. More as we get closer. I would now start to expect a more or less steady stream of war news without serious changes until that date. We will return to it in detail as we get closer.

Shop Work

I have been hesitating with 3d printing because I have a long list of software tasks from our recent trip to Virginia. I have been at the desk in the shop working software and tracking sickening war news.

This week, I looked over at the 3d printers and realized that I have available 3d printer hours that I need to be using. Anything that is ready to print should be running, not waiting around for later.

So more specialized silk plastic for birds and bird cages was ordered this week. At least some of the printers are now back up and running. This week most of the regular birds and bird cages for the river case were 3d printed. Watch for pics on Telegram.

Headline Review

The following caught my attention this week. I am using this to include source links for points made above as well as interesting stuff. I am still messing around with how to report on a war.

Kharg Island

This was the first of several Telegram posts related to events on Kharg Island. Trump's pearl harbor.

Kharg Island Fantasy

Another post, with map. Notes as to why taking this island is some sort of Trumpian fantasy.

Kharg Retaliation

Iran retaliated by striking an oil terminal outside of the Strait of Hormuz. What did the Zionists think Iran would do? Are the Zionists dumb? More likely they are evil geniuses who want mass death.

Singapore And Hong Kong

A post on Telegram citing Bloomberg on how wealth from the GCC countries will travel east, away from the USD.

Kharg: The Pearl

This is the original Youtube video where I saw this island is known as the pearl. Trump's Pearl Harbor. Trump is now the Emperor of Japan.

Tucker on False Flags

Many expect the Zionists to false flag the USA into a ground war with Iran, just like 911. Stay safe. Stay away from iconic buildings. Iranians don't think this way. They are moral. The Zionists are the opposite. The link here is to Tucker on this point.

Mirandi on False Flags

Professor Mirandi making the same point on an X post. Iran does not reason like the Zionist west.

More For Fun

A post on Telegram quoting Trump of attacking Iran just for fun. I am not a lawyer, but this sounds like a war crime.

Care in Moscow?

A post on Telegram suggesting Iran's new supreme leader was sent to Moscow for medical care. Later reports hinted at his death.

Off to Kharg

A post on Telegram with well fed Iranians at the Ferry Terminal headed to Kharg Island. Like defending the Big Island of Hawaii in 1941. Since this is also the forbidden island, I wonder what permits they are traveling on.

Trouble With X Blue Checks

This is a post on Telegram explaining the verification process for blue checks on X. Not good. Getting such a blue check causes tracking of all other social media via companies in Israel.

Troop Moral

This is a link to a Center on Conscience and War post on X dealing with reports from troops. This group helps US military with the legal problems of leaving because of bad war orders. This post starts a thread on reports from a military wife.

Other reports are suggesting the easiest way out of serving in Hitler's army and navy is to smoke weed. This will cause a failure of drug tests which normally leads to a swift removal from the services.

Russia's Bushehr Nuke Plant

This is the first post on X that I saw dealing with Zionist bombing of a Russian supplied nuclear reactor in Iran. The Russian's called in the Israeli ambassador and complained. The Russians have ~450 personnel on site. Russia has the means to retaliate, though they are polite. If Russia chose to retaliate it would be against reactors in Europe or North America. Give it time.

Russia Speaks On Nuke Plant

Russia did formally speak about the Zionist strike on their nuke plant in Iran. This is the X post on that point. They condemned the attack.

Zionists' religious morality is flat out reversal of the 10 commandments. "Do Kill" is what they are attempting here.

Curious note on this: A complete written reversal of the commandments as found on the Staff exhibit would be a snake. This is the miracle Moses performed before Pharaoh. Pharaoh's commandments are the reversal, they are called a "snake." Like a snake in a garden. Be careful even touching such a thing.

Netanyahu Alive?

At some point all the public does is mock. The link here is a to a post on X with a hilarious joke dealing with Netanyahu's death.

USS Gerald R Ford -- Out

The link here is to a long form article on Zero Hedge dealing with a large fire on the USS Gerald R Ford. The Ford was out of commission starting about 2026-03-12. This is the other US Aircraft Carrier originally sent to West Asia for this war. This is timing very close to the USS Abraham Lincoln departure, and should be considered a paired match.

The prophetic story here is the death of Rehoboam, king across the civil war. For the USS Abraham Lincoln, the namesake president reigned across the US Civil War. (Likely even causing that war.)

In the case of the USS Gerald R Ford, it looks to have been a civil war ON BOARD the ship that took it out of commission. A very nice prophetic pair. There were 2 kingdoms after Rehoboam, and 2 ships here.

Netanyahu Dead March 8, 2026

The post here on X supplies more evidence that Netanyahu died, this time pointing at March 8, 2026. This would mark the start of finding a new leader, the plague of Arabs.

The evidence here is how his son stopped using social media for 7 days. This is as per Jewish religious law when a parent dies. His son had been running 40 posts per day ahead of his father's death.

Ben Gurion Airport

This link is to a post on X dealing with Israel's main airport. Trouble there means there is no way out for trapped Israelis.

Script Writer

The link here is to a post on X with a video clip of the writer, or secretary, who is providing the script for the phantom Netanyahu. She did not notice there was a live video already running. This is the same trick as used with Biden.

Kharg Island Details

The link here is to an article on IranIntl.com. It gives details for Kharg Island itself. It is a serious place in terms of oil volumes. It would make an interesting narrative in the west should it be captured by the Zionists. Japan never succeeded in capturing Hawaii, but then again the Japanese did not try.

Wikipedia: Kharg Island

The link here is to the Wikipedia article dealing with Kharg Island. This article does not pick up the pearl nick name, but it does mention pearling as an ancient industry. It is one of the few islands in the Persian Gulf with a natural source of fresh water. Special permits are needed to visit.

Commentary On Weed

This post on X provides some fun backup for how smoking might end the war.

Trump On Pearl Harbor

This is to a Lord Bebo post on Telegram that includes video of interaction between Trump and the Japanese Prime Minister. It includes a reference to Pearl Harbor.

People with some forms of mental illness cross subjects when they speak. Though this looks like poor taste, it also might suggest Trump knows Kharg Island is like a modern Pearl Harbor.

Closure of Holy Sepulchre

The link here is to a Sonar21 post on Telegram dealing with details on how Israeli officials have closed the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. This has never been closed. The Al-Aqsa mosque is also closed. This has never happened, in history nor in Covid. Reason cited is "security." Is this a setup to blow the Al-Aqsa without witnesses? Perhaps.

MCHR Machinery

The link here is to a Health Ranger post on Telegram dealing with the damage to the LNG trains in Qatar. Mike Adams has been hounding this in many posts across all of his social platforms. Famine will come because of this war, even if Hormuz is reopened.

Investigation On USS Gerald R Ford

This is a Geopolitics Prime post on Telegram dealing with investigations over the fire on the Ford. Did some of the crew start the fire? Same as plugged toilets? Hard to say.

Pop Up Accident

As a light ending to a tough week, the link here is to a 5 minute video on Youtube by Casey Jones. Jones explains what happened at a construction accident in Japan. Most times construction accidents cause stuff to fall down. This time a giant hidden pipe popped up from the ground. It was hard to even guess what might have happened in this accident. Turns out the construction crew had drained it, and it floated in the wet soil causing it to rise. Such a problem. Also a relatively simple fix.

FOOTNOTE

This has been a crazy week with headlines. I started working on this blog at the start of the week. I finished most of it on Thursday evening.

I woke up Friday morning and realized there is a problem in the general logic of understanding modern Israel. That problem comes from my Protestant heritage. I first made this mistake in the Bible Time work when I looked at the formation of Modern Israel through the lens of Protestantism. Until this morning I have still carried around this same mistake.

Readers here are also mostly from the Protestant tradition. That tradition was created by Jews and elevates Jews in ways that are incorrect. Even outside of Protestantism, there are still problems with Christianity because Jews edited the Bible and thus created Christianity.

In the argument I have given in this blog, there are places where Protestantism needs me to reverse the application of certain Bible stories in order to complete the argument. This is because I am taking the wrong side. A correct view of Modern Israel does not need such reversals.

The STEM side of the argument above is correct. So, the calendar is correct. The math is correct. The events are correct. The Wikipedia article links are correct. Historical story matches to headlines are correct. The main conclusion, watch for more war later this year, is also correct. Assuming normal tolerances, none of that is the problem.

But, there is framing problem, a problem involving how we understand Israel itself. What, or better who, is Modern Israel?

There is a major insight here if you can spot it. I don't have time to fix this today, so Friday. I also want to give Protestant readers the chance to think their way out of the same box that we have all been trapped within. I will deal with this in a longer form future blog because it has all kinds of future timeline implications.

More Later,

Phil

More On Iran

Phil Stone — Fri, 13 Mar 2026 21:00:37 GMT

This blog deals with the current status of the war in Iran. This includes a change in understanding of the plagues. Then we turn to upcoming watch dates and related headlines. It has been a busy news week.

Plagues Timeline

When Ryan and I did the math for this we were looking for point stories, and we searched the king's narrative to find stories that would tie to the plagues. We found them, which gave us confidence this was the right way to match Egypt to the Jebusites of Jerusalem.

But, in terms of ongoing headlines, the plagues series looks more like a continuous series of unfolding headlines. The stories of the early plagues is worth reviewing here again. The plagues series starts with blood then frogs, gnats and Arabs. We are approaching Arabs now, but let me review the earlier plagues.

Blood

At the start of the 2008 run of the plagues, the first event was the collapse of the I-35W bridge across the Mississippi between Minneapolis and Saint Paul in Minnesota. There was around a year to rebuild that bridge. It was literally blood on America's Nile, in our case the Mississippi.

So it made sense when there was an ICE related shooting at about the correct date nearly walking distance to the same bridge in Minneapolis. A new rerun of the plagues was even starting at the same geographic place as the plagues did in 2008.

But that ICE episode had been ongoing. This was not just a single date, but it sat within an event that had been brewing for some time. It is also important to note that Minnesota was ground zero for state level financial fraud also involving immigrants.

The Epstein Class stole something like $9B from the people of the state of Minnesota. Similar amounts appear to have been stolen in many other states, using the same basic pattern of fraud. I've seen notes of this in Washington State and California. I don't normally track state level headlines, and I don't know the actual numbers.

Apparently, this whole fraud system was cycling money from Americans to pay for overseas regional wars. Financial fraud, of all types, seems to always be used to conquer countries. This is done to build a world capital at Jerusalem, as per the goals of Zionism. It seems we are always in a religious war. Villains in this war always control politics. This is the fruit of what happened when the people asked Samuel for a king.

Open borders, which Trump has been fighting through ICE, is also a Zionist goal. It is part of their theology for ruling the world from Jerusalem. Their goal is that no culture, no religion, no group of any sort, will be able to ever become strong enough to defeat them again.

Traditional Christianity in the USA is a major threat. This is why it was turned into Zionist Christianity. Practicing Zionist Christians are fools. To use their own vocabulary, they are pawns of the devil. They have never carefully read their own bibles. These bibles were changed since the founding of the country, a topic for a future blog.

For some reason, the Lutherans, who founded Minnesota, must have been seen as a particularly dangerous threat. Perhaps the Lutheran threat is Luther's own personal writing? I digress.

Frogs

The plague of frogs was the release of Epstein files, ultimately a plague of pedophilia. This may be the pinnacle of debauchery because it includes cannibalism and seeks out defenseless children for victims. Think Sodom, Gomorrah, and Jebus.

Nearly the entire US Government is involved. The public has coined the term "Epstein Class" to represent the entire set of current US Government high officials.

"Epstein Fury" has also been coined to describe bombing against Iran. These terms are being used with derision against nearly anyone in standard media as well.

These terms acknowledge Zionist control over the western world. The public is slowly figuring out the problem. Without reading their bible's carefully, and without gaining a way to discuss religion in public, there is no way to fix this problem. Tucker Carlson is at least trying.

For any given high official on the US Government payroll, it seems a good bet to assume they are involved with Epstein. Even when not known as clients of Epstein, they are all collectively still protecting Epstein and his work. Nobody in government seems to care about punishing Epstein's clients, nor bringing justice to their victims.

Even high military officials must be considered involved by default. Anyone with an AIPAC minder is also involved. From bribery to cannibalism, all of this is the fundamental morality of Zionism. It is exactly the opposite of the commandments. Just read the commandments, and reverse their meaning, to understand Zionism.

I saw comments on social media this past week that the DOJ is now slowly withdrawing the Epstein Files from their websites. Pharaoh does not want a change in his government. That would be expensive to replace.

In any case, the Epstein files was the plague of Frogs. It kept public attention until the Zionists started bombing Iran. War is a well known way to distract the public.

Gnats

The next plague, gnats, appears to be what we have seen since Iran started retaliating for the USA and Israel bombing of Iran. It took Iran less than 24 hours to retaliate. Iran was ready.

Note that in the 2008 replay of the plagues series the gnats were the grounding of MD-80 airplanes by the US Federal Government over an issue related to rivets holding wiring in the wheel wells. The traveling public in the USA was left stranded at airports over the sudden loss of airline flights. Atlanta's airport was the busiest in the world at the time, so the hub of this plague.

The same thing happened again when Iran started retaliating for the Zionist attack on their leaders. This time most air traffic across West Asia was grounded. Dubai's airport is now considered the busiest in the world. This time Dubai was the hub for this plague.

In both 2008 and again now, the source of the trouble was an incompetent, or malicious, American government.

Many living in the GCC states still want out. Some flights have resumed. Life in that region will get worse before it gets better.

Now: Arabs

What we now watch to see is the "plague of Arabs." This was translated into English in 1611 as "flies." This word choice was presumably because the English king did not want the plagues to have any hint of being caused by political action.

The term "flies" may have been selected to replace Arabs because of the annual Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca. The massive swarm of pilgrims in Mecca reminds observers of a swarm of flies.

If we see the plagues as running as a continuous chain, then we may have moved into this plague of Arabs this past week.

In 2008, this plague was marked by an Obama comment on a Sunday morning TV interview where he slipped up on his Muslim faith. Muslim and Arab should be considered synonyms because Muslim is not a biblical term.

It was about 2 months before Obama won the election. Then another 2 months before he was placed in the office of president. Never mind he was not a natural born citizen as the layers in the PDF version of his birth certificate so easily proved.

Obama's election marked the start of the financial side of what is now called the Great Financial Crisis.

Where in the World Is... Netanyahu?

The main headline for this, some links below, was widespread reports that Benjamin Netanyahu had been killed by an Iranian missile. His brother was also killed, so was the head of Israel's spy agency. There have also been reports of deaths of many other high government officials in Israel.

Note that this is so far just a rumor. Netanyahu was also rumored to have left Israel for Berlin. His plane was tracked to Berlin. The question at the time, Was Netanyahu on board? The joke at the time being how he was heading for Hitler's bunker. I am more inclined to believe the rumor of his death rather than his hiding. Let me explain.

So the rumor of Netanyahu's death is matching that 2008 TV show's hint that Obama would win the election. Let me stress this, the rumor of Netanyahu's death looks to be the matched headline to Obama. In the 2008 case we were looking at the next leader. In that era, someone of Muslim descent.

Netanyahu's replacement is being prepared. He will be of Arab, so West Asian, ancestry. This is unlike Netanyahu who is of European ancestry. At this point I don't know who that would be.

That candidate was probably on Israeli TV at about March 10, 2026, just as Obama was in 2008. Someone tracking Israeli political headlines may have a specific name. I would expect Alastair Crooke to discuss this once the dust settles. At least 1 former prime minister of Israel has been answering questions on Israeli television, not Netanyahu.

This time around there may also be a precise plague caused by Arabs. The entire group of GCC countries is tied to the Petrodollar. The unwritten contract between the USA and the GCC countries was broken when the Zionists bombed Iran. More below.

I will continue to monitor for point dates for plagues, but so far these seem to mark what the public is tracking in headline news. These seem to run for days or weeks. There are many more weeks to come.

So the plagues are tied to the kings related dates, and they tie back mostly to the Great Financial Crisis. There is also a Noah related series going on now too. These tie back to Desert Storm in 1991. So we have many ways to look for confirmation of matched headlines. This is a very interesting season.

Let me turn to the precise watch dates from this week.

Match Date: 2026-03-10, Noah's Flood, Rain Begins

So we were watching for a shift in the war in some way as of this past Tuesday, March 10, 2026. On the flood side of the prophetic series, we were also watching for the formal start of rain in the flood.

At this date Trump was clearly looking for a way out of the mess in Iran. He was even blaming his staff for tricking him into causing the war. (There is no honor among thieves, as Trump is so clearly demonstrating.)

Trump even called Putin at the start of this prophetic date. Trump was asking for help in stopping the war in Iran. Iran, apparently, will not even answer the phone. Putin was apparently courteous, as he always is, but did not offer any serious help.

The main event this date was something the Iranians said to the world. As of this date, future Iranian missile launches will be upgraded. The new missiles will each now have a minimum of 1 ton of munitions.

In terms of this past week's expected change in the "mode of the war" the Iranians have simply upped their game. From the Noah side of the timeline, this new round, using larger weapons, represents only the start of rain.

Compared to the 1991 run of Noah, so in Desert Storm, this is now the point where the air war actually began. This should run for around 40 more days, so in our day, ending somewhere near Sunday, 2026-04-19.

A final note on this date, the Zionist side also began general carpet bombing of Iran out of NATO bases in the UK. American bombers can operate at a long range from Europe. Iranians do not appear able to fight back against European based flight crews. This is another view of the start of Noah's flood. In this case, rains of bombs on the Iranian public from bases in the UK. (Expect the UK to eventually reap what it is sowing. This is a general principle.)

The USA previously carpet bombed Hanoi in North Vietnam during the Vietnam war. Though it causes mass death, general bombing of the public cannot win wars. It did not win Vietnam. Carpet bombing is just a sign of desperation. The generals involved are usually committing war crimes. The Zionists have run out of real military targets. This is a sign that they cannot advance their side of the war any further. (Aside from nukes.)

Note how the Vietnam war was why the USA had to leave the gold standard. They could not pay for both bombs and butter and still use a gold backed currency. The Zionist side this time may also trigger a currency crisis. More below.

Match Date: 2026-03-11, Last Year of Rehoboam

The next watch date we had this week involved the replay of the last year of Rehoboam. This was the king who ruled over the civil war that broke Samaria away from Jerusalem. The matched headline appears to involve the USS Abraham Lincoln.

USS Abraham Lincoln

The link here is to a report on TASS dated 2026-03-12 indicating the IRGC claims to have struck the USS Abraham Lincoln, probably the day before. That ship is said to have been damaged and fled the region.

This sort of very high value target would be a reasonable candidate for the last year of Rehoboam that was expected at that date.

There is a very important match from the USS Abraham Lincoln to Rehoboam. Note how that ship is named after the US President who ruled during the US Civil War. The name of the ship is providing the prophetic match.

In Rehoboam's case of his civil war, the nation was split. In Abraham Lincoln's case the nation was preserved. In both wars most of the slaves were freed.

Strikes on important American assets are not likely to be acknowledged by American sources until after the war is over. So we are not likely to see American media confirming this. I chased down this link on TASS from a social media post that cited this source. TASS is the main Russian news service. They have very high journalist standards. TASS would not have posted this article if they did not think this had actually happened. They presumably checked with the Russian military first, while only publicly citing Iran.

Match Date: 2026-03-12, First Year of Ahijah

Generally speaking the plagues stories are following the kings. The rumor of Netanyahu's death appears to be the start of the process of selecting a replacement. It matches headlines from 2008 and Obama.

During the Great Financial Crisis this was only a time of prelude. The main headlines would come after Obama's election. Of course the bankers probably knew trouble was brewing even before the election.

But, there does appear to be an actual plague by Arabs that is now chaining into the king's series. Let me explain.

This started when the Zionists bombed the Iranian bank that processes payroll for the entire Iranian military.

The Iranians have vowed to retaliate against western banks located across the GCC countries. Those bank bombings began this past Thursday, so the replay of the first year of Ahijah.

Plague of Arabs

So now think about Arabs as the GCC member states. The strict reading of the Plagues side of the king's story says the next plague wave will come from the Arabs. Not counting those bigger Iranian missiles, does it make sense that the Zionist west will be plagued by (the) Arabs?

The Petrodollar was created when Kissinger strong-armed the Arab countries in Nixon's day. They were forced to recycle oil profits into assets in the USA. In particular, they were forced to buy US Treasuries. But, they also purchased many other assets.

Remember, publicly traded stocks in the USA are also fiat, just like dollars. This is why it was so difficult for small scale owners of Tesla to vote for Musk's pay packages. Many brokerage accounts do not hold real shares as stated in the brokerage account readouts. Those brokerages had to buy real shares so their clients could actually vote for Musk.

The trick from Nixon's day was how the oil revenues of the Arab world needed to become the "reserve asset" of the US Dollar instead of Gold. Gold cannot be printed. Gold has very little real industrial use. Thus it is ideal for backing a sound currency.

But gold does not back the Zionist banker's fiat currency that began in 1971. Fiat dollars is how the Zionists now rule much of the world. The Zionist cycle is simple. 1) Create money out of nothing. 2) Buy up everything. 3) Repeat.

So a plague of Arabs, as a concept, is warning to watch how the Arab world changes its relationship to the dollar denominated financial world.

Bombing Arab banks is a very nice symbolic start to that.

Notes On Arabs Going East

There were rumors on social media this past week that wealthy Arabs were fleeing the region. They were taking off on private jets. They were headed to Asia, especially Thailand, and not out into the west. They will take their money in that easterly direction too.

Watch inflation in the USD. Watch for strengthening of Asian currencies.

Notes on Reduced Oil Supply

The current war has stopped oil flow from Arab countries into other parts of the world. Because the oil distribution system is full of storage, it can withstand short term problems. It was designed to be a resilient oil supply system.

But when the Arab countries must stop production at well heads it means the system is now cutting off real supply going into that otherwise resilient oil distribution system. There is no way to catch up that missing oil. When the wells are eventually restarted they simply resume formerly lost supply.

Headlines this week indicated that Arab states were shutting down wells. Disruptions like this will naturally cause all manner of shocks across western economies. This will be the plague by Arabs.

Notes on Netanyahu's Replacement

Assume the rumors of Netanyahu's death are correct. Assume Israel gets a new leader of West Asia descent. If it follows 2008, this may take as many as 4 months. Until then, Israel may be fighting over who will rule. So they may now be operating without effective leadership.

This means Israel is not going to be able to make decisions. They may not have anyone able to order a stopping of their bombing of Iran. They may not have anyone able to tell Trump what to say. They may not have anyone to tell European leaders what to say.

European and American political puppets cannot do very much on their own, especially if their puppeteer dies in an Iranian bombing.

I don't know what to expect in particular, but the Zionist side of this war with Iran looks to be without effective leadership. This would explain why Trump appears to be going mad. Nobody from Israel is telling him what to say. There is no narrative formation happening at the top.

Watch Dates: 2026-03-14, 2026-03-15

2026-03-14, so the Saturday after this blog goes out is the replay of the last year of Abijah. The following day, so 2026-03-15, Sunday, is the replay of the first year of Asa's reign.

The next plague is the plague of Livestock. During the financial crisis this is when the crisis became financial.

These immediately future dates are not likely to be the next plague dates. The plagues are running slower than the kings. Looking ahead, the end of Asa's reign, replays on 2026-04-24, which is soon after the end of Noah's 40 days of rain at 2024-04-19.

So for this coming weekend's set of prophetic dates we must watch for more general headlines out of the Iran war, perhaps more from the GCC countries and perhaps impacts on banking.

Shop Work

I am still busy tracking war headlines. We haven't had a war like this in a very long time. I am a little more focused this week and continue to work on software. The key parts of my diary code rewrite were finished this week. Code changes in support of Ryan's current Canon Bible app rebuild were started this week.

No normal shop work is currently going on. Still probably another couple weeks before I return to that work.

Headline Review

I am adjusting my format this week to include most links at the bottom of the blog. Some of this supports the points made above, some is new.

Oil Mess

The link here is to a Geopolitics Prime post on Telegram. This link has a series of photos and commentary linking the current Iran war back to Desert Storm in 1991. This is as the prophetic Noah related stories would suggest.

In that war in 1991, there was a considerable amount of oil spilled into the environment. In those days, Iraq, ultimately the looser, was generally responsible for that mess.

This time around, Israel and the USA are now creating a similar environmental mess across much of Iran. The creators of the mess might be marking the villains and ultimate losers in both wars. Just a curious point.

Trip Canceled

The link here is to a Lord Bebo post on Telegram detailing the cancellation of a planned trip by Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to Israel. This pair is generally a negotiating team, and their primary purpose would have been to talk to Netanyahu face-to-face. The trip had been planned for 2026-03-10, so Tuesday, the main Noah prophetic date this past week.

The post asks the question, Why was this trip canceled?

This trip cancellation is secondary support for the idea that Netanyahu was known to US officials, at this date, to have been killed. There was no leader in Israel that these men could go visit.

Netanyahu Probably Dead

Linked here is the best post on X that indicates Netanyahu was dead. It includes a video of an Indian government official who claimed Netanyahu was killed at the same time as the head of Mossad.

Last Night, 1 Ton

The link here is to an Iran 24 post on Telegram. The post cites an apparent Iranian source that indicated the night before was the first use of 1 ton warheads in missiles fired from Iran.

This was the first hint that the size of the munitions was increasing. This was hinting of the shift from Noah's "warning" to Noah's "rain."

From Now On, 1 Ton

The link here is to a War Monitors' post on Telegram dated March 9, 2026, that quotes an unnamed Iranian official that states "From now on, we will not launch any missile with a warhead weighing less than 1 ton."

This was the day before the expected prophetic date. Within the slop of the prophetic timeline, this is what drives the March 10, 2026, date where the rain of this war actually begins.

So the prophetic story of Noah would suggest everything earlier was just bad weather and clouds.

As normally retold, the public in Noah's day does not really figure out the problem with rain until it has been raining a long time, nearly 40 days. I would suspect the western world does not get the troubles that 40 days of 1 ton bombs are going to bring.

Tuesday Briefing

The link here is to a Lord Bebo post on Telegram. It includes a video clip of Senator Blumenthal. He was coming out of the Tuesday war briefing on Capital hill on this past Tuesday, so 2026-03-10, the date for the real start of Noah. So this is the 3rd Tuesday of weekly briefings on the Iran war to US Senators. The previous 2 such meetings were prophetically timed to Noah's flood warnings. This time the war was on.

Note that this week Blumenthal's point to reporters was on the planned use of US Ground Troops against Iran. I doubt there is time for building a whole new army, but watch for this to become a very real issue 40 days later, so 2026-04-19. It is also possible the Zionists are planning a much longer war. We will figure that out at 40 days. Because bombs were falling before 40 days of rain, we might expect more war after 40 days, unlike Desert Storm in 1991.

Trouble Stopping Iran

The link here is to a Geopolitics Prime post on Telegram. The content of this post has been floating around in other places, including Hal Turner. This is a short article dealing with how the Iranian military studied the defeat of Iraq in 2003. They learned from Iraq and setup a distributed system of control within Iran. There is no central command and control, so no king. There is no single place on the Iran side from which the war can be stopped.

This is linking the current actions of Iran back, ultimately, to the 1991 war. So this run of Noah now has a documentation trail back to an earlier run of Noah. The 2029 series of Noah will probably have a similar tie to this current run of Noah.

The Zionist goal is a single king in Jerusalem ruling over the earth. That would be a point of control, a single point of failure. Joshua does not need kings, he is king already. Before asking for a king, Joshua ruled just fine, without anyone on top. Iranians get this.

Trump Facing Backlash

The link here is to a War Monitor's post on Telegram. It contains a screen capture of a WSJ article suggesting Trump's advisers are telling him to find an exit strategy for Iran.

You can see the WSJ is Zionist. Trump is not a sovereign agent. He will do whatever he is told, even to blowing up the world.

Oman

Map

False Flag?

The top links here are to Lord Bebo posts on Telegram. The top includes video of burning tanks at the docks in Oman. Iran was blamed, but they denied having any involvement.

The second link is to a post with a map so you can see where this happened. This is far outside of the Strait of Hormuz. Fire continued until all the tanks were burned out. No more oil will flow this way until the tanks are rebuilt after the war.

The third link is to a cirnosad post on X which suggests this was an American false flag. In particular a drone fired from the group of ships accompanying the USS Abraham Lincoln is the suggested source.

Zionists gain more ownership of the economy through bankruptcy of oil related industries than they do from trading profits. They have probably planned this war for decades. They have long had reason for stopping all oil from GCC countries out to the world.

Iran Conditions

The link here is to a 6XX6P post on Telegram which lists off Iran's conditions for ending their bombing. This may be false. But here is the list, just to consider what this may take to end the war.

Hand Netanyahu to the International Criminal Court.

Withdraw to October 7, 2023, borders.

Cancel Trump's plan for Gaza.

Lift all sanctions and return frozen funds.

Recognize Iran's nuclear rights.

Withdraw from Saudi Arabia.

Expel American forces from Arab lands.

Compensate Iran for all sanctions levied on it.

Nukes

The link here is to a post on X by Kim Dotcom. This is one of many dealing with the likelihood that Israel has been or may soon use nukes in Iran.

Trump Threatening Nukes

Another post on X, with Trump threatening to use nukes on Iran.

More On Nukes, What to Look For

Another discussion on X, this time what to look for generally. Nukes won't be named. They will be 'suitcase nukes' so they look like standard ordinance.

ICBM grade nuclear war should wait until 2029, but a low level of hidden nukes, so suitcase nukes, may be already going on.

A Good Example

A post on X with the best example of a recent US/Israel bombing near Shahr-e Qods in Iran that may have been nuclear. There have been other strikes against Iran with the bright flash that is characteristic of low yield nukes.

First Attempt

As per Tucker's video on the 3rd Temple, we would expect a false flag there in order to clear room for a new Temple. The link here is to a Lord Bebo post on Telegram. This post includes video of such an event.

The video is said to be an Iranian missile landing in the area of Temple Mount, putting the dome at risk. Since Iran is now only using 1 ton warheads, we must ask, what are we really watching?

Someone in Israel needs a narrative that Iran is bombing Temple Mount. Why? So the Dome of the Rock can be false flagged as Tucker explained. A smoke bomb like this is a good starting point for such a narrative.

LNG Tanker Supply

The link here is to a Zero Hedge article that covers the problem of finding physical tankers for LNG. Most of the world's limited supply of LNG tankers are trapped behind the Strait of Hormuz. The few such tankers outside of the war zone are now in high demand. This will compound LNG supply problems later this year.

Markets Don't Matter

The link here is to a Zero Hedge article that suggests strongly that the normal oil related trading markets no longer matter. So monitoring oil prices to understand war sentiment is also no longer valid. Key points in this article include how some refineries are refusing to accept expensive loads of oil, and how some are only selling refined products to regular customers.

These examples indicate how normal, centrally, so Zionist controlled, oil trading markets are no longer driving the actions of real businesses. These businesses are now working outside of Zionist control.

This article also explains how the oil flow also drives supply of many other refined commodities, like helium, which are used in other industries. Changes in real oil prices also disproportionately impact fuel price sensitive shipping, like air cargo, refrigerated containers and presumably anything heavy or bulky. This has supply chain impacts similar to Covid.

Many apparently unrelated industries risk being shuttered the longer this war drags on. Think of products like fresh fruit normally flown in from South America, or lamb flown in from New Zealand, or electronics manufactured in East Asia.

The Zionist bankers can only control oil price. They cannot control supply as long as Hormuz is closed. Since the Zionists started this war, this may be an intended side effect, not an accident. Those bankers will be making tons of money in the markets until real businesses see they must use real prices outside of that system. Since Zionists control when they stop bombing Iran, they also control the timing of the exit side of this war and these trades.

The content of this article suggests no theory, nor generally accepted practice, involving oil pricing, can predict what will happen in the broad western economy over future weeks.

Beware if you have business interests involving fuel or any sort of long distance transit or any sort of specialty chemicals. Real businesses will be carrying more inventory, then restocking only when delivered prices are favorable. Real businesses will reduce their use of financial markets for arbitrage.

Expected Bank Impacts

The link here is to a Sonar 21 post on Telegram outlining possible impacts to western banks once Iran starts retaliating for attacks on their military payroll bank. This is a long post, the impacts are likely both short term and long term. This should eventually manifest as the Plague of Livestock later this year.

The Zionist bankers' answer is ALWAYS to print more money and give it to their friends. This is inflationary and enslaving. In the plagues narrative this is Pharaoh demanding work even though the public is out of money. (No silver, no straw, but work anyway.) The end of the plagues is to eventually be delivered from this, but for the USA not likely until after 2030, perhaps not until after 2037, so 430 years to the day from the founding of Jamestown.

Amazon Breaking

The link here is to a post on X dealing with troubles at Amazon. Seems they are using AI generated code. This, of course does not work. It has been breaking stuff in their public cloud.

Our public web server is located at Amazon. So far, we've not seen trouble. But, the general use of AI suggests most cloud services will become quite fragile, especially as more AI generated code continues to roll out.

Amazon is now demanding their senior level programmers take legal liability for AI generated code. In my day this was called "indemnity" and was part of what we sold along with our software to our customers. Programmers cannot supply indemnity. It is a result of business processes around programmers.

Imagine the cost to Amazon of their cloud being down for a week because of AI slop? Or the cost to Amazon if their online stores forgot customer accounts, or product sales histories or warehouse inventory levels? Any of these events could bankrupt Amazon because of their legal liability risks to their own customers and shareholders.

Hint: If it works, don't fix it. Stop changing your code at all. Banks figured this out 50+ years ago. Amazon is not going to add share holder value by changing their existing software. Amazon is not a startup any more. Stop acting like a startup.

I would expect an AI generated future world where 1) nothing online can be trusted to be true. We are mostly already there. 2) Nothing online can be trusted to work. We are approaching that now. 3) Nothing online has value worth paying for, since every purely online service can be reproduced by anyone in a few hours of work.

I would expect a future economy where only the physical world matters very much. Depending on how the war goes in 2029, that economy may look more like the stone age than it does the space age.

More Later,

Phil

Iran

Phil Stone — Fri, 06 Mar 2026 22:42:56 GMT

This blog reviews events in Iran. Before that some notes on app updates. Then watch dates and a long headline review.

Paleo.In

Ryan and I came back from Virginia with a long technical to-do list. One of those items was a rejiggering of the scripture related apps. These are the heart of the work Ryan is doing.

The goal here is to create a reasonable order to those apps and their content so the "Bible Projects" section of apps provides an introduction to the problem of what we are passed from history in terms of the Bible and related manuscripts.

Change in Plans

This week, we had planned another app for that section. Ryan spent most of the week working on a first public draft. But Thursday this week we reviewed this work and realized there are fundamental issues with our understanding of actual Protestant history.

When we traveled to Virginia we visited Jamestown. Note how Jamestown, Virginia, and Plymouth, Massachusetts, used the Geneva Bible. This was before the King James Bible. The Geneva Bible was threatening to the king and the king's bankers, which is why the KJV bible was even commissioned.

Remember, usury was made legal in the English speaking world in 1604. From that date on, the king worked for the Jewish Bankers. Protestant Christianity is ultimately a story of the Jewish control of this branch of the Christian religion.

The Geneva Bible, what King James was trying to suppress, is closer to the Orthodox Bible than it is to modern Zionist Christian Bibles used in most of the USA.

Having been raised in the Protestant Tradition, Ryan and I are both partially blind to the history and problems and steps that were taken to move English speaking Protestants away from Orthodox roots.

How did it get this way? The manuscript change history from those colonies to today is the same story as the development of the perversion that is Zionist Christianity. Dropping, say, the Christian Old Testament, is but a part of the crime.

This is a hard story to tell. Our apps will address this problem more carefully in future weeks.

So this week, all the icons are updated. Greek related apps are now using blue lettering in their icons. This is a reminder of the Greek flag. The other apps in that section now have consistent upper case letters for their icons. More changes in this section will come in future weeks.

War Headlines

Unless you've been living under a rock, you are probably well aware of the war that started when Israel and the USA started bombing Iran in the early morning hours of Saturday, February 28, 2026.

The first 2 targets were the house of the supreme leader of Iran, and a girl's school. There was debate across that first day if the supreme leader had really been killed. The Israelis were sure. The Iranians needed time to agree.

The school bombing involved around 180 deaths of mostly young children. That bombing was used to bring great shame to the Zionists leading the war.

The Iranian public was enraged, and has been protesting in the streets every night since. That public gave their full support for the Iranians to launch retaliatory strikes, which they did later that day.

To the surprise of most observers, Iran focused their early attacks on American bases across the GCC countries. Less surprising was how Iran also started targeting military installations inside Israel.

As this blog goes out the Zionist side has control of the airspace over Iran and is able to bomb Iranian targets at will. The Zionist side has an uncertain amount of munitions. The key Iranian military targets are underground, making it very difficult for Zionists to defeat Iran by air power alone.

The Iranian side is thought to have a nearly unlimited stock of missiles, but cannot easily launch them while the Zionist side mostly controls Iranian air space.

On the other hand, nations cannot be defeated by air strikes alone. Iran cannot realistically be defeated without a ground invasion.

The first round of that invasion is expected to involve Kurds from Iraq and western Iran. There is discussion of the use of other troops, say American or NATO troops, but nothing along these lines has started, at least as of this writing.

Oil Infrastructure, Hormuz

Because there has been significant destruction to oil infrastructure in the Arab countries, there is serious risk to the Petrodollar, itself setup in Nixon's presidential term by Henry Kissinger. In those days, Arabian Oil replaced gold as the backing for the US Dollar.

Breaking the Petrodollar is a likely way to break US, so really Zionist, Hegemony over most of the rest of the world. Iran's laser focus on the oil industry of the Persian Gulf is a war plan designed to bring down the dollar based financial system.

At this point Iran only needs to hold on and the financial systems of the western world risk natural financial collapse. The international banking cartel can print currency and inflate the currency away. They cannot print fuel oil, natural gas nor derived products like gasoline and fertilizer.

The various GCC countries own interest bearing financial assets that are mostly denominated in US Dollars. Those assets will need to be liquidated in order to pay for rebuilding, which will also put pressure on the demise of the US dollar.

Iran has clearly, and carefully, gamed out what they would do when the Zionist west decided to try and take out their government.

Open Questions

Is Iran able to defeat the Zionists? Or does this wait until Iran's big brothers, Russia and China, openly join the fight?

The ultimate Biblical question is do the Zionists eventually prevail? Will they rule the world from Jerusalem?

From the Zionist side, this war is one of the final battles for that to happen. Russia, China, and a few others still remain independent of the Zionist control grid. Their wars are likely still future, about 3 years out, unless this becomes just 1 continuous war.

Prophetic Date Questions

There are some issues, though, in terms of what date series we are currently following. I want to explore those here, because this question has serious implications for what happens over the next few weeks as well as understanding the Noah related dates in 2029.

Last week I gave date related math that ties current headlines to a future set of Noah's Flood related dates in 2029. I speculated that the 3 year time of Civil War in Rehoboam's reign becomes a 3 year time interval to a 2029 second copy of Noah's flood.

That math was written up late in the week, and I did not have time to really digest what it might imply in terms of immediate future headlines.

The key idea was that there are 2 weeks of prophetic warning ahead of the actual flood itself. The first of those warning dates was on 2026-02-24, when Rubio briefed a small group of US Senators on war plans against Iran.

The second of those dates hit this past Tuesday, so 2026-03-03, when that same group of Senators was again briefed on the current state of the war.

Actual, visible, war broke out a few days after Rubio's first briefing of a few members of Congress.

Watch: 2026-03-10

There should be a 3rd such date on the Tuesday after this blog goes out, so 2026-03-10. This next date is no longer a flood warning date, but a 3 year mark point to the start of Noah's Flood in 2029.

Several things can happen at that date, from yet another visit to the Senate, or a vote in Congress, or something out in the world. We will watch that date and see what happens. This headline may be hidden in a fog of war, and there are secondary dates across the week. More on that below.

But there is a more fundamental question. Are we staring a complete Noah's Flood prophetic headline rerun right now?

By this I mean are we looking for a series of dates across 2026 and into 2027 that map from Noah's story, but which will inform yet another Middle East war and its aftermath about 3 years from now?

If we see such a headline series, we will have near term confirmation that the Noah Flood dates of 2029 and 2030 are all correct. This would eliminate a theoretical long distance leap date problem that is currently implicit in those 2029 prophetic dates.

Probably Another Noah Now

My gut says this will be the case. Joshua is going to prefigure nuclear war with this localized middle east war 3 years early. It will interweave with the stories of the Judean kings that are also going on across this same interval.

Many, many commentators this past week have said the current war with Iran must eventually go nuclear. Israel will go nuclear if it risks defeat. Iran will go nuclear if it risks defeat.

In all cases this eventually goes nuclear, presumably with the other venues going nuclear too, including Ukraine, Taiwan and North America.

We will worry these details as we go forward. Maybe the current war with Iran will just stop? It could happen. Pray it happens.

Looking Back

Now that this has started, there has been a series of public statements made by various individuals about the timing for this war. Let me start by reviewing those.

The start date for this war was apparently dictated to US President Trump when Netanyahu visited Mar-a-Lago in Florida on December 29, 2025. The original planned date for attacking Iran was set for February 20, 2026, though some sources indicate February 21, 2026 was the planned date.

Note our nearest prophetic date for this was 2026-02-22, the replay of the last year of Solomon's life. So this was essentially at the transition from Solomon to Rehoboam, so the start of a 3 year civil war. The planning dates all line up well with the timeline we have been following.

Of course February 21, 2026, turned out to be a false date. Why?

Reports indicated that war plans were thought to have leaked to the Iranians, so there was a 1 week delay, landing at February 28, 2026, when bombing of Iran actually began.

This, of course, suggests treating February 21 as the planned date and it pulls in closer to the February 22 prophetic date.

The prophetic story we are watching is the start of a 3 year civil war that in history was at the start of Rehoboam's reign, which began on 2026-02-23.

But the actual start, at February 28, 2026, was a day or so ahead of Jewish Purim. This has symbolic meaning to Jews and was likely the real planning date all along.

Rubio's First Senate Date

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio first visited Capital Hill on Tuesday, 2026-02-24, so the second day in a 3 day prophetic interval for the replay of the first 3 years of Rehoboam.

Rubio was on Capital Hill in order to brief key US Senators on Netanyahu's war plans. He was caught on video nearly a week later indicating this was Israel's war, not a war of the USA.

Then again this past week, so on Tuesday, 2026-03-03, Rubio was again on Capital Hill to review the first few days of the war.

Noah Timing

Last week I also reviewed the timing out to Noah's flood. The idea here is that a 3 year "civil war" interval ties these events into the dates for a modern replay of Noah's flood.

The math for this is remarkably tight. Assuming 2 weeks of warning, as supported well by the Genesis account of Noah's flood, we can see this war as being a timed, 3 year long, precursor to Noah's flood.

The first visit of Rubio to the Senate matched the expected date on February 24, 2026. The second visit of Rubio to the US Senate matched March 3, 2026. The timing here is very nice. Warnings for war are the basic story.

The next date, so the 3 year mark to the start of Noah's flood would be the Tuesday after this blog goes out, so 2025-03-10. This becomes our next watch date.

Watch: 2026-03-10, Tuesday

So the date 3 years ahead of the start of Noah's flood is 13017-02-17 (2026-03-10). This day, or perhaps the following day, should mark some sort of change in how the current war in Iran is being handled.

Watch for headlines out of the USA for something changing. At the minimum another visit to the US Senate by Rubio. But there could be any other sort of headline that shifts the "mode" of the war.

Watch: 2026-03-11, Wednesday

The following day, 13017-02-18 (2026-03-11) is the replay of the last day in Rehoboam's reign. This is the Wednesday after this blog goes out.

Watch: 2026-03-12, Thursday

The next day, so 13017-02-19 (2026-03-12), is the replay of the first year of Abijah's reign. So the Thursday after this blog goes out. Note he reigned a total of 4 years, which will see the transition at the Sunday/Monday break after next week's blog. I will review that prophetic date in next week's blog.

Remembering Desert Storm

Note how these are 3 watch dates clustered in the middle of the week after this blog goes. I would expect this to mark some sort of shift in this Iran war. The best would be a stop in the bombing, but we will see.

In the case of the previous Middle East related run of Noah, so the 1991 "Desert Storm" operation to liberate Kuwait, the 7 days of warning was mostly political posturing. So there was no shooting across the warning period like we are seeing this time in Iran.

40 Days Of Rain

At the start of Noah's flood itself, so the start of rain, so about January 20, 1991, the USA began 40 intense days of air war against Iraq. This was following the rain from the skies of Noah nearly exactly. So what might we expect after the middle of next week? Unclear.

This time around the rain looks to already be started. It may also be the case that the Zionist side starts to run out of munitions this coming week. If so, then the rain from the sky for the following 40 days will only be Iranian weapons.

In 1991, starting near the end of 40 days of bombing, there was a 100 hour ground invasion of Iraq. At the end of that invasion, US President Bush announced a cease fire and proclaimed that Kuwait was liberated. For this to match, we would watch for about 40 days of war against Iran.

What happens at the end of these next 40 days is unclear. Iran is not Iraq. But the Iranian side would say that Kuwait still needs to be liberated.

Note how that short ground invasion in Desert Storm covered Kuwait but stopped from invading Iraq proper. It was not a complete victory over Iraq.

Waters Cover

The Noah story then calls out a 150 day interval, measured from the start of rain, when waters covered the earth. This landed mid June, 1991.

At about that time, the United Nations passed what would become the weapons inspection regime against Iraq. Scott Ritter, a common and well liked voice in current alternative media, was part of that work. Though there were perhaps other timed headlines out of Iraq, none were serious enough to make it into my notes for that era.

The prophetic dates that inform the tail end of Noah's Flood in late 1991 and early 1992, matched the collapse of the USSR. They did not have any obvious fulfillment in or around Iraq at all.

This time, there are similar alliances to the USSR which might themselves dissolve in about 1 year. Examples include the GCC states, NATO, the EU, and BRICS. Any of those alliances could disband at the end of this war with Iran.

The final date, when Noah comes out of the ark so 6021-02-27, so for us this time is 13018-02-27 (2027-03-15), was matched in 1992 when the Russians stopped pointing nuclear weapons at the USA.

Given recent headlines, I would think the global nuclear war situation gets worse, not better, but we will see. Zionists are ultimately a death cult.

Camping's Book: 1994?

All of my timeline studies began with a review of Harold Camping's book "1994?" In that book he predicted the end of the world in 1994. I did a review of that book well after 1994 had passed. I wanted to understand his mistakes and see what I could learn from them.

Camping made a long series of math errors that needed to be corrected. He did not have very good technical skills for such a task. He also had no idea of the correct calendar. Both of these errors were easy enough to correct.

But Camping was also making a structural mistake. What he did was leap from ancient dates to modern dates in 1 single long shot. This means there was no modern short term warning that his long distance dates were correct.

At the time I reviewed his work I felt that any valid system of predictive dates would predict lessor headlines across many years. Predicting World War II, for example, would be a good example of something to predict.

When I started with that work I also knew that predicting the Jewish return to modern Israel would be another nice test. Predicting that cluster of dates in 1948 would be a good proof that some system of prophetic dates was valid and running.

Camping's work had a much better understanding of the timing of Adam, pushing Adam back ~7000 years from convention. But he had no similarly powerful, but now historic, modern predictions.

Noah's Flood Leap

The dates for Noah in 2029, that I've known for years, have that same problem as Camping's 1994 end of the world date. All I have to work from is the 7 day divine voice warning for Noah. That voice then turns into a 7000 year warning for a second copy of Noah's flood.

On this math, I fail my own class.

We don't like taking an ancient date and just adding 7000 years. This gives us no confidence that we have done everything right. We don't know if the dates are right until we see them go by. With Noah being such a serious story this is doubly difficult. We can only apply very low confidence to what we might see come 2029.

I did have a distinct prophetic dream exactly 10 years earlier where I was told that nuclear war would begin in 10 years. When I looked up the date I found it was the date for the start of Noah's flood in 2029.

So personally, I have known what to expect for Noah. So for the past 7 years this has not been timed strictly based on a long-distance time leap. But, until now, that date is based on math and my personal testimony. Until this week, my own warnings about Noah in 2029 have not been based on actual, near term, running headlines.

What just happened this past week is we got a modern headline which embeds a 3 year offset which is now lining up, essentially day accurately, with Noah in 2029. These headlines are also now dealing with the world being on the edge of nuclear war.

If Iran prevails against Israel, Israel will use nukes. If Israel prevails against Iran, Iran will use nukes. The only way this current war does not end with nukes is if there is deescalation, which we can presume will happen this time around but not in 2029. Russia's FM Lavrov has spoken to this exact problem, link below.

Note that Iran does not appear to have nuclear weapons at present. Iran will get them from either Pakistan, who offered their nukes in the 12 day war last June, or else North Korea, or else China or else Russia. Nukes look easy for Iran to acquire. They may even make their own.

So we just changed our headline based confidence that the Noah's math for 2029 is generally correct. Asserting that Noah's flood is the timing for a nuclear war is now also easier to do given current headlines. Nearly every informed alternative media commentator is now asking when does this war go nuclear? Answer: Even if it does not go nuclear now, use of nukes will not escape 2029.

Finally, and most importantly, the new war in the Middle East is now, at least, an accurately timed precursor to a war that begins early in 2029.

Some Timeline Theory

Last week's blog spelled out in detail how 3 years backs up from Noah's dates. I wrote that part of the blog up late in the week, dropping other content which I may return to in a future blog.

What I spelled out was an example of what I call "4 point timing." Most timelines in the text have 2 dates at the start and then 2 dates at the end of each long distance time interval.

Conceptually, the 7 day warning of Noah's flood in 2029, backs up by 3 years and informs dates going on now with Iran. Of course there are 2 such warnings, so it backs up and provides 2 such dates now.

But, once these sorts of intervals begin, what we usually find is that all the dated stories involved in the story also run at both ends of the prophetic interval.

This is why all the dates of Noah's flood offset by 7000 years. We get a copy of all of Noah in our day, not just a few single dates.

So if we are 3 years ahead of Noah, are we looking at a situation where ALL of Noah's dates back off by 3 years?

This question can only be answered by inspection. We must watch a few more dates involving the current war. If a pattern against Noah actually picks up, then we are going to see a complete copy of Noah's flood dates unfold for this war against Iran. We will then see a similar set of headlines 3 years later, when this becomes full-on nuclear war.

This is a very serious set of questions, which are best answered by watching headlines carefully. These will unfold until early next year, but will become sparse here in another few weeks.

Shop Work

I am still doing software work this week. (Slowed down by distraction tracking news.) Probably another couple weeks before I restart the 3d printers. In a more perfect scenario we would move before restarting the printers.

Change In Media

Let me note that X had record traffic days on Saturday, February 28, 2026 and the following Sunday, March 1, 2026. Elon posted both dates making a note of what was going on. The world was tuning in for war news from Iran.

Then the algorithms were changed at X so the platform would not promote war news out of Iran nor the Middle East in general. By Monday, X was filled with cat videos, dog videos, goat videos, sheep videos, donkey videos, bird videos and I even saw a dolphin video. How sweet. There was also kid school project videos, love stories, travel logs and stories of people who quit their jobs, angry with their old bosses.

Anyone paying attention found X was no longer useful, and overall X traffic took a dive. Hint: The "Probably Spam" choice at the bottom of some posts was covering the good stuff, like how to escape X. Which I did. Many others are doing the same.

Headline Review

There was a river of articles that in normal weeks would be enough to link here. This week was particularly busy. Here is a sampling.

Tucker: Temple?

The link here is to a Youtube video by Tucker Carlson. In this video, his monologue speculates this is likely an attempt by Israel to get the Dome of the Rock removed "by accident" so the Jews can rebuild the temple.

Tucker has a good starting point for evidence in support of his contention.

Note that starting mid year last year I started suggesting we should watch for a temple rebuild project that would begin at the start of this year, so in the start of 2026.

Though Israel has not yet removed the old Dome of the Rock building, this war may be their plan to provide cover for that demolition. Tucker's video explains there are 2 ways for the Dome of the Rock to be removed. Either an errant Iranian missile will just take it out, bringing Arab blame on Iran, or else Israel will simply false-flag the removal of the Dome of the Rock, also bringing (false) blame on Iran.

Because Netanyahu dictated the schedule in December, 2025, any demolition during this current Iran war is now a lingering prophetic match to the Temple rebuilding expectations of the timeline for early 2026. The timeline stories of late 2028 would be best if there was a rebuilt temple by that date.

Iran's Leader Killed

The link here is to a Sputnik post on X dealing with Trump's assassination of Iran's supreme leader. He was a religious figure, not so much a civil figure. Trump needs to beware of the principle of reaping what you sow.

This post is important because it spells out a 40 day time of mourning and then a 7 day national holiday which follows. This appears to begin March 1, 2026, though the actual start date is unclear.

Note how the 7 and 40 numbers, though reversed, are the same math as in the Noah stories that we suspect just began. On the Noah side, it is 7 days of warning, 40 days of rain.

This is an example where those involved are calling out their own prophetic stories, even if a little jumbled. Saddam was doing the same in 1991.

Crowds After Death

The link here is to a PressTV post on X with a photo of the crowds that gathered after the death of Iran's supreme leader. He was to most Iranians like the Pope is to Italians in Italy. This is a battle of religions. At least the Shia are waiting for Jesus to return. The Zionists want to spit in his face.

USS Abraham Lincoln?

Forced to Leave?

News Censored?

The top link is to an RT post on X which reports on speculation that the USS Abraham Lincoln was at least threatened by Iranian missiles. It was said to have sailed south east, out of firing range from Iran. This is a high value target in the informational side of this war.

Note how these types of ships echo to the Noah story in 2029. Noah's ship survived. Apparently nobody else in Noah's day had a surviving ship.

The second link above is to a longer Gospa News article on the same point. That ship did appear to leave the area for safety.

The 3rd link above suggests all news on the Abraham Lincoln was censored. Within another day or so all news, everywhere, was being censored.

Planned: February 21, 2026

The link here is to a Zero Hedge post on X that cites Axios that indicates Netanyahu's planned date for the start of this war was February 21, 2026.

This puts it closer to the prophetic dates for the end of Solomon.

Note, though, that Purim, 2026, was a 2 day holiday from March 2 through March 3, minding strange calendar day breaks. To Jews in Israel, these dates would be more symbolically important, so the dates as they unfolded are most likely correct to their December, 2025, plan. The Axios article is likely meant to sow doubt.

Gang of 8 on March 3?

The link here to an Acyn post on X provides some evidence that the expected meeting on March 3, 2026, so the 2nd week warning date, also had a meeting on Capital Hill at the expected date.

Note that the video clip indicates that nothing particularly sensitive is being shared in these meetings.

What Next?

The link here is to a Zero Hedge article dated March 2, 2025. So the Monday after war broke out. They speculate on what will be struck in this war. The worse is desalination plants in the Arab states. This would be a non-nuclear way of making the Arab world uninhabitable.

Aramco Strikes

The link here is to another Zero Hedge article with photos of early strikes on an Aramco refinery in Saudi Arabia. Because Israel is the master of false flags it can never be clear who actually caused this trouble.

Lavrov: All Nations Nukes

The link here is to a Megatron post on X that cites Russia's FM Lavrov. The war that just started will cause EVERY small country to gain nukes. Lavrov points out the public paradox in Trump's actions. Demanding no nukes will proliferate nukes everywhere.

In any case, Trump is effectively arming every small country with nukes, ending the world as we know it, the fool.

X Stops Covering War

Everyone Notices

The top link here is to a Kim Dotcom post on X that is one of many similar posts dated March 3, 2026, that followed X dropping war coverage from their platform.

The second post is by Viral Headlines on X, a longer form post on the same subject, same date. X basically stopped working for most users.

Kurds To War?

The Zionists have been attempting to use the Kurds to perform a ground invasion of Iran. The link here is to a Megatron post on X that includes an interesting map of where Kurds are found around the region. Note how they are one of the few ethnicities in the region without their own nation.

Kurds are traditionally Christian, and the Aramaic texts were preserved, in part, by the peoples we know now as Kurds. So this is an important group to track.

The use of Kurds as cannon fodder is likely to remain an ongoing issue. Zionists don't like Christians and would willingly use them for such an invasion. A ground invasion of Iran is NOT easy, even for well trained armies like the USA. (Well trained?)

US Destroyer?

The top link here is to a post on X by ME Observer. The second link here is to a different channel on the same subject. These reports indicate that the Iranians struck a US Destroyer on March 3, 2026.

The focus of this is on ships and shipping. This is matching the prophetic stories of Noah. This is but another simple example. Unclear what really happened. We are starting to fall into the fog of war.

Problems of Software

I was asked a couple weeks ago about what I thought about upgrading or replacing a desktop PC. I did not have anything to say because of the mess unfolding with Windows. Windows 11 is a tracking nightmare and not fit for purpose. So an upgrade from Windows 10 to 11 is a downgrade. The Mac platform is not much better, the spying there is reported to be better executed.

PC manufacturers are starting to see the problem. Lenovo and HP are now said to be offering PCs with Linux pre-installed and supported. This is strong validation to choices we made around here 20+ years ago to NEVER use proprietary software for our work.

In the end not even Linux machines are likely to remain safe from the prying eyes of Israel. But, we gotta start somewhere. While Windows 11 is a spymaster's dream, there are other troubles too.

Lenovo Defaulting to Linux

Lenovo is one of the traditional PC vendors. They have several different families of computers. This video explains how they are going to default to Linux instead of Windows for at least some of those machines.

Windows is now deep-state spyware, and not really a desktop OS anymore. So the question of upgrading computers is NOT just a hardware problem, but a software problem. Lenovo knows this, and is trying to capture the market for refugees from Microsoft.

California Attacks Linux

The link here is to a Youtube video detailing a new California law that demands Linux track user age just like the other commercial OS vendors must now do. (Ubuntu and PopOS have agreed to follow this law. We may need to change our suppliers, we will see.)

This new law goes into effect January 1, 2027. Linux distros will either comply, or block California in their license agreements. For servers this suggests no more server farms in California. All the more reason for software companies to leave California for Texas.

Child Grooming

The link here is to a Rob Braxman Tech video on Youtube. In this video Rob goes into the technical details of recent changes in California and Colorado state laws involving tracking the age of computer users. The big 3 software companies are doing this in seriously evil ways. Protecting the children is the stated public purpose.

Of course both states are run by Zionist Satanists, members of the Epstein Class. Would we expect them to be protecting children? Or grooming them to find them, track them, kill them and eventually eat them?

Rob explains these states recent bills are technically designed for child grooming, not protection. If you can handle some technical details, I would highly recommend watching his video. He is a world class expert in computer security.

Utter shame on Microsoft, Google and Apple for going along with this plan from the pit of hell. Next time we go looking for a software upgrade we will probably be looking for software not licensed for use in California.

More Later,

Phil

Story Grid App

Phil Stone — Fri, 27 Feb 2026 21:13:06 GMT

This blog introduces our new SG app, replacing the 400 app. Then we turn to Iran, which looks to become a slow, long term war. Finally, a general headline review.

400 App

Our 400 app has been around since late 2018 when we first started to think that there might be some sort of alphabet driven grid that provides organization for the stories found in The Testimony.

Any story count that is a multiple of 25 implies that that alphabet's internal 3d system would be informing certain story pairs. Those story pairs should have some sort of related content.

We started with 400, as a guess, for the number of stories in the text. This would match the 400 pieces of silver Abraham used to buy a cave. This is also a multiple of 25, which implies row level story folding and thus pairing.

At first we also thought this was a reading plan for a holiday week, likely Tabernacles. 400 breaks down into 16 rows of 25 stories. 16 rows would be 2 rows per day in a Sabbath year Tabernacles read of the Testimony. So 2 rows would form both an AM and a PM reading session for each day in the week.

More Rows

Over time, our understanding of the stories was growing and we needed more rows. Abraham's 400 pieces of silver was not really informing the total number of stories. Something else must be informing the total.

So we increased the story count to 500. This added 4 more rows. This was fitting the data better, but 20 rows no longer fit Tabernacles very well. This change did give room for more stories.

Once we increased the story count, we were now messed up in terms of the name of the app. At the time, we did not change the app name because we were not sure of the correct story total. So we stuck with the old 400 name.

Then about a year ago, we increased the story total to 625. This brought the row total to 25. This was magical because all the same alphabet related row folding patterns would now also work on the stories found up and down across columns.

This is very compelling. We started to feel we had the right number of total stories because of the overall design. 625 stories also provided room for most of the content types as found in stock Bibles. Once filled in, this is not as severe of a reduction in content from stock Bibles as was implied by smaller story counts.

But we still had a problem. The app name was still using the number 400. We did not want to go change the name to 625 on the off chance we were still wrong in terms of story total.

Shortly before heading to Virginia, we started discussing alternative names. Names that would not use any numbers at all. Such a name would be resilient to any future changes in story counts.

We started searching for a real name instead of a number. This week it was finally time to fix this lingering problem.

SG -- The Story Grid App

So this week the 400 app is now removed from the set of apps on Paleo.In in favor of a new "Story Grid" app. In every detail except the name, this is the same app as the 400. By not using a number for the name we can change the internal number of stories in the future, should this ever be needed.

The Story Grid arranges the stories as found in the TT app. So this app provides a grid of cross connections found across the story level content. It can be easily studied using the app. It is otherwise difficult using just the TT app alone. So "Story" is a key concept and "Grid" is a key concept. Both are picked up in the new name.

There are various ways to grid the stories. The basic display is a square grid and it shows off horizontal and vertical folding. Diagonal folding is also possible. See the various reports in the center drop down for the various story pairs that show up across the entire grid.

Beware Migration

I have left the old version running for this week. I will be pulling it off here soon. Readers here who have the 400 app installed on your devices need to remove the old 400 app and then install the new SG app instead.

It is best to make this change in this order because we have kept the logo the same, which is a little confusing if you have both installed.

Our apps that are built on the Paleo Alphabet generally use a Paleo Letter for the icon/logo. We do not want to abandon the "Ta" letter from use as a current logo. So we are just keeping the same logo across this change.

So the basic steps for migrating to the new vision are to 1) remove the old 400 version first, then 2) install the new SG version.

Not Automatic

I looked at automatically migrating from the old URL to the new URL and this is a path that is fraught with trouble. Most devices see this as a new app, not a change in name. Better to be safe and just uninstall the old version completely and start again. This is a very rare thing to do. Better to do this now, before we become famous. We reviewed our other domain names for our other apps and this is the only app with trouble in the URL.

The link above is good enough to install the new version, provided you are reading this blog on the same device as where you intend to install the Story Grid app.

You can also visit Paleo.In and install the Story Grid app from there. Or, finally, you can just type the new URL into any browser: sg.paleo.in is the app's permanent URL. On some browsers, the browser may want the protocol, so as not to do a search. So https://sg.paleo.in is the full formal name for use in those special cases. Your browser should load the app and then offer to install the app on your device.

Subverses

Ryan and I have been resting up after our trip to Virginia. We both came back with head colds which vitamin C seems to have cleared up. This past week all I have really wanted to do is sleep.

We have both been looking for tasks that are simple to do as we get back to our normal routine.

Ryan has been working through the major prophets and adding subverse numbers everywhere that there is some sort of poetic formatting. You will see those show up in the BRB and related apps as of this week's deploy.

I have been looking at diary related software, but should have just called in stupid while I have been resting up.

Iran

This past week we were watching for the day-for-a-year replay of the first 3 years of Rehoboam's life. These years were the civil war that split the ancient kingdom into 2 parts, a capital at Jerusalem and a capital at Samaria.

Because of the very heavy build up of US military hardware around the Middle East it was pretty obvious we should be looking for war with Iran. I've been watching this for several weeks as covered here in the blog.

By last Sunday I heard that Trump would give his annual State of the Union Address on Tuesday evening. This was done before a joint session of Congress on Capital hill.

As soon as I heard this was going to happen, I knew there would be no war until after that speech was over. Trump would not want war related headlines upsetting his speech. We would need to wait until that speech was over before we would see any real war news.

War Briefing

BUT, we did get a meeting on Capital Hill at 3:00 PM on Tuesday, 2026-02-24, so ahead of the SOTU speech that night. This was the middle day of the 3 day window for the replay of Rehoboam's civil war. So it was a compelling match in terms of war with Iran being tied to the civil war story itself.

Rubio briefed the key members of the US Senate on the American war plans against Iran. This is always done ahead of any military activity. So the Iran war is not a declared war. This is a war conducted by the choice of the president who is controlled by the many Zionists above him.

Ship Trouble

There was an additional problem, the USS Gerald Ford, an Aircraft Carrier, was in trouble. The sewage system on board was not able to handle 4600 crew members. A GAO study from 2020 said their newfangled vacuum toilets were undersized. Fixing it requires time back at home base without crew on board.

That ship made an unscheduled stop at a Navy base on the Greek Island of Crete in order to get some help. Presumably a row of porta-potties was placed somewhere onboard ship. This delayed their arrival on site as planned at Haifa. This may have contributed to the delay in starting the war.

Soft Mutiny?

There was a great deal of conversation on X over this ship's actual toilet trouble. The Ford has been running this way for a long time. Why trouble NOW?

It seems there is a long tradition with sailors in the US Navy, that when they are given bad orders, they plug the toilets. Bombing Iran, without a Congressional declaration of war, is likely what sailors are protesting. They risk death because of the gangsters currently running the US Government.

So far so good. We are getting build up for war against Iran. But what is the schedule? Are we missing something?

3 Years?

Another strange component of this week's watch date was how this was a 3 year civil war. Actual wars don't go by in 3 days, which is what the day-for-a-year compression ratio would want us to find. Maybe we should not compress that particular 3 year war reference at all. Maybe we are STARTING an actual 3 year war?

Rubio's meeting on capital hill would suggest looking for just the start of a longer war. Nobody in any media is expecting a 3 year war with Iran. But maybe that is what we are to expect.

Let me give you a strong second witness that Trump is about to start something like a 3 year long war. He may have just begun the war that ends the world.

Math To Noah

Note that we are now about 3 calendar years to the start of Noah's flood. We don't know for sure what dates now will tie exactly to Noah. But, 3 years is a good approximation.

Instead, we can run backwards from the known Noah related future dates. Stated differently, we can presume the 3 year civil war is accurate. But we can graph backwards from Noah to see if we hit this past week.

It turns out, by backing up by 3 years from Noah we will also reach last Tuesday, when Rubio briefed members of the US Senate on Trump's soon war with Iran. Let me show you the math.

Math Back From Noah

Noah's flood, in history, was 6020-02-17. This is a timeline study from the BibleTime.com days. The derivation of that date is beyond our scope here.

There is a 7 day warning, given in green text, in Genesis 7:4. Green text date math goes through the 2 Peter 3:8 ratio of 1000 years to the day. So this divine voice reference in the account of the historical Noah's flood means there is also another copy of Noah's flood 7000 years in the future.

To find that future Noah's flood date we add 7000 years to the ancient date and get a modern flood date. 6020-02-17 + 7000 years = 13020-02-17 (2029-02-22).

So if the expected 3 year civil war from this past week runs forward and ties into that future Noah flood date, then we have a second witness that we were only starting a 3 year long civil war this past week.

We can check this 3 years against Noah by backing up from Noah by 3 years. The math for this is 13020-02-17 - 3 years = 13017-02-17 (2026-03-10).

Note how years are normally 360 days each. But there are also leaps. So moving by years does not tie real closely to the Gregorian dates.

This March 10, 2026, date is coming up fast, and may be the true start of bombing in Iran, but this is not an exact match to dates this past week.

We still need to factor in the 7 days of warning that came ahead of Noah. Rubio was only warning of war, not starting war.

7 Day Warnings

Noah had a 7 day warning ahead of the flood's formal start, so we can back off these Noah dates by another 7 days.

At our end this is now 13017-02-17 - 7 days = 13017-02-10 (2026-03-03).

So the Tuesday after this blog goes out is when there would be a warning. But wait, there is still another prophetic trick.

If you go check the Noah's flood story, there are 2 references to the 7 day warning. The first is in Genesis 7:4, the other is in Genesis 7:10. The first is in green voice, so divine voice, so 7000 years. The second is in normal voice, so 7 calendar days.

But that reference to 7 days in divine voice still stands as a regular 7 day reference.

Using normal calendar time, both of these 7 day references are the same week, the week ahead of the start of Noah's flood.

But using prophetic time, like we normally use in the diary, this would suggest 2 weeks of 7 days each, so 14 prophetic days of warning ahead of Noah's flood.

So the math so far is calendar time. For prophetic time we need to back up another 7 days. So 13017-02-10 - 7 days = 13017-02-03 (2026-02-24).

This is the earliest prophetic date when the warnings begin.

This was the date for Trump's SOTU address. This was the date for Rubio's briefing to key US Senators about how the USA is about to start war with Iran.

This was the Tuesday before this blog goes out.

This was landing exactly within the prophetic window for the replay of the 3 year civil war. This is interpreting the story of Rehoboam and his stupid arrogance where he thought he had some sort of divine right to rule.

So Trump, giving his State of the Union speech, with a joint session of Congress, is the same as the assembly before Rehoboam. See 1 Kings 12 for the full text of what Trump was doing. Trump was arrogant and prideful and like Rehoboam, unaware of what was about to happen. In any case, I digress.

So all the math here is working well. We have found the double entry book keeping that provides confirmation to the hunch that Trump is starting a 3 year long war against Iran.

Broader Scope

But this is indicating that this is NOT just a war with Iran. Iran is part of of the lost tribes, a fragment of Naphtali is in Iran, as per Tobit 7:3.

But the civil war story we are crossing over this past week is between all of the lost tribes, not just Naphtali. So this should involve all of the lost tribes. This means all of Europe, Russia, the USA, and all colonies, so this includes India, China and so on.

That civil war was also fighting against control of the tribes by the Jebusites who lived at Jerusalem. The Jebusites, so Jerusalem, mostly lost control in that 3 year long war.

The prophetic story from this past week is framing the Iran war as a part of a larger war. Zionism is defined as building towards a world capital at Jerusalem. By 3 years from now they will have lost most of what they have been working towards in their Zionist plan.

That loss appears to be why they launch nuclear war 3 years from now. If they cannot rule the world, then nobody will have a world in which to rule.

Reviewing Details

Iran has no equivalent of AIPAC minders like they do in the US Congress, this is the reason for the war. The Zionists need regime change in Iran in order to finish their world government plan. They also need control over Russia, China and Cuba. They are blockading Cuba as of this past week too. They must have plans for Russia and China. There are a few other outliers, like Hungary.

In the base prophetic story we are watching for this week, Jerusalem lost control of the bigger kingdom, including the northern tribes. It took them 3 years to finally loose such control.

So imagine an actual 3 year "civil war" between Russia and her allies and the USA and her allies. Imagine it starts roughly now, but has a precise tail at Noah, where nuclear war breaks out. After that future date in 2029, not much will be left of the world as we know it.

In any case, I have just given a second witness to Tuesday, February 24, 2026 as the start of the warnings for war that should run about 3 years, so longer than anybody looking at this Iran war can currently see.

There may be up to 2 weeks of threatening warnings before anyone starts serious shooting. 1 Kings 12, which has day-accurate details for the start of the war, would offset slightly shorter than 2 weeks. So this is open season for the start of shooting.

The 12 days of war last June may be credited now in some sort of divine accounting. This is also a couple days short of 2 weeks. The Iranians do appear to have already shot down an American drone, but this does not appear to be a formal start.

In previous reruns of Noah, the 7 day warning period is usually threats of war between the soon warring parties. The US Civil War and first war with Iraq are examples.

We should watch next Tuesday, for another warning, and then the Tuesday after that for a more formal start of the war. If we hit those dates, this new war should run for 3 years. The Zionist west will never admit their defeat. At the end, they would be expected to use nukes to blow up the world.

Shop Work

My shop work is currently working down a list of software work. The SG App update this week was the main event for this week. I am looking at an update for our internal diary software before turning to manuscript audit. More in future weeks.

Headline Review

The following caught my attention this week.

Israel Nuke Test

This post on X by Max Blumenthal gives evidence that suggests Israel tested a nuke around January 15, 2026. We are eventually headed for nuclear war. Who might shoot first?

Votkinsk Attack

This post on X by Scott Ritter details the recent attack by Ukraine against a factory in Russia. This was likely CIA provided targeting aimed at nuclear escalation. We are in the shadow of nuclear war. The Zionists don't control Russia.

Epstein Resignations So Far

This link is to an article on Zero Hedge. It lists off known resignations by people mentioned in the Epstein files. Note that the plague of Frogs in 2008 saw a similar resignation.

This time around the Plague of Frogs appears to involve many more resignations.

Epstein Class Vs. Jack Ma

The link here is to an interesting article on Unz.com by Hua Bin. It details the difference in governance between China and the Zionist west.

At the end he argues that the only realistic governance structure for modern nations is a high IQ civil service that only rewards success. This is what China is using now.

This is what Elon Musk's DOGE showed to not be possible in the governments we know of now in the west.

We do not know what comes after Noah's Flood. We are either blown back to the stone age, as happened to historical Noah, or else we retain some resemblance of the modern world.

If we do retain technology, it cannot be governed by criminal gangs like Zionists. They will just blow up the world all over again.

Remove AI Guardrails

The link here is to an article on Patriot TV. Seems the US Government wants to use an AI system without "guardrails." If Anthropic, the current AI supplier, does not remove their internal safety systems, they will loose government contracts.

So the US government wants a Satanic AI. Why should I be surprised.

More Later,

Virginia Trip Report

Phil Stone — Fri, 20 Feb 2026 21:22:39 GMT

This blog summarizes lessons learned on our recent trip to Virginia. Then watch dates for next week, which is expected to be a busy prophetic week. Finally, a headline review.

Unleavened Bread Week

I hinted last week that Ryan and I traveled to Virginia for our Unleavened Bread week holiday. This trip was as important to us as the trip to Washington, DC, last year. Though this trip was very different than last year. What follows is my summary of the trip itself, along with some of the things we learned along the way.

The Dream

Late last year I read a book called "There is a River" which was the authorized biography of Edgar Cayce. I previously reported about that biography in the 2025-12-26 blog. That blog is linked in the index found on the main page of Paleo.In if you want to review.

When I first started reading that biography I had a particularly strong prophetic dream. Here are the essential details of that dream.

In the dream I walked along the front porch of some sort of brick building. There was some sort of overhang over that porch. There was a main door in the middle of the front wall. There was a glass wall of some sort inside the lobby. There was a receptionist's desk of some sort, also in the lobby. Further into the building there was a grand staircase that went up.

There was a scene change and I was now on the top floor, apparently at the top of the stairs. There was a floor to ceiling glass window wall. Outside I could see a flat roof at the same level as the interior floor. There was a parapet style short wall around the roof, so conceivably someone could walk out on the roof. There was some sort of view over neighboring houses, but that did not seem to be the reason for this strange building design. I also saw someone, an elderly man, appear in that upper room. Then I woke from the dream.

Some readers here who know my prophetic gifting will recognize this as what I call a "venue dream." This is a dream of a place that I will soon be visiting. I have had these off and on for many, many years. I always end up in the venue seen in the dream. At the time of the dream I had no idea where this might be. I usually do not know where these venues are until I walk into them.

Cayce Biography

As I continued to read the Edgar Cayce biography, I read were he eventually moved to Virginia Beach, Virginia. The biography explained various reasons for this including proximity to New York City, future economic development of that region, and prophetic reasons why Edgar needed to be near interior water which was a feature at that particular beach.

As I read through Cayce's move to that area I thought some of the locations in the biography might still exist. So I typed the addresses into Google Maps in order to figure out where these might be. 2 of the 4 locations were once houses, but are now commercial buildings. The 3rd location is a house, but using Google street view, I could see it no longer has any sort of commercial signage.

The 4th location still exists and it turns out it fills the better part of a city block. It includes a building that was once the Cayce hospital. From the satellite photos on Google maps I could see the entire property. On that property was a modern visitor's center built in 1975.

Using Google Maps, once I saw the roof, and the floor to ceiling windows, I realized I was looking down on the building I'd seen in the dream. At that point I realized Ryan and I needed to travel there. The question was when.

I checked their online schedule of events and the first Saturday of each month is the best date to visit because their schedule of events is longest on that day. This year's Unleavened Bread holiday spanned the first Saturday of February, so I knew we needed to go to Virginia Beach, and we needed to visit that location on that Saturday. What would turn out to be February 7, 2026.

Working out travel plans was not particularly difficult. We'd been to Washington DC last year. We did need to dodge weather. The shortest route was across North Dakota and then south of Chicago. But this would not allow easy reroute south to avoid any sort of winter storms. Instead we went via Cheyenne, Saint Louis, Nashville, Durham, and then north into Virginia.

Other than the time at the Edgar Cayce visitor's center, we had no fixed schedule. We did visit Jamestown. We also had time for our normal holiday lot sets. We found a room with off-season rates which had a view of the Atlantic. So we were generally well set for the holiday itself.

The more difficult problem was the event in that upper room, a time for anyone from the public to practice Tarot Card reading. This was a totally cringe worthy destination, and it caused Ryan and I many hours of discussion about doing this at all.

It would turn out to be a highlight of the trip and not all that bad. We learned a bunch of important things. Those lessons are what I want to share here, especially for those who are following along with our project.

Tarot And Tea

The main event was called "Tarot and Tea" which was scheduled for the room I'd seen in the dream. We knew from the dream that room was the location of our main event.

The schedule for the day included other events. There was a tour of the building, which we took, and late in the day was a scheduled video on dreams. We declined the video, as we were still processing Tarot and Tea.

Tarot and Tea is monthly. It is open to the public for those who want to practice their tarot card reading. It is a well attended event. Normally this is in the 2nd floor the library, but that room was closed for cleaning. So instead we were in the top floor "Meditation Room."

This was exactly the same room I'd seen in the dream. It has a floor to ceiling window wall, a floor level roof is outside of the windows. A parapet style short wall keeps anyone outside from falling off the roof. (Though it does not look like they use the roof, maybe in summer.)

There are roof tops of neighboring houses visible from inside that room. Finally, and most dramatically, there is also a view of the Atlantic Ocean.

Everyone who was there for the event ended up seated at tables set up for 4 people. It was quite a crowd. I am not sure how many were there.

Ryan and I ended up at a table with a host who was trained in the practice of Tarot Card reading. Not all tables had such skilled hosts.

Let me cover the key points here, and why they add to our general understanding of the manuscript recovery process and related exhibits.

Tarot Card Decks

Tarot is done using a deck of 78 cards. These have a modern form going back several centuries. That deck was created using a standard deck of playing cards combined with an additional set of 22 Hebrew Alphabet cards. At the same time as this card deck was created, there was a set of standard artwork added to the face of each card. This artwork was in part because most people were illiterate when this work was being done.

At the time when Tarot was created, standard card decks had 56 cards, not the 52 cards of standard modern playing card decks. Modern playing card decks have lost 1 card from each suit. So a Tarot deck has 78 cards in total.

Once we knew that a derived form of the Paleo Alphabet is part of these card decks, we both realized this was why we were there. We needed to learn as much as we could about the cards.

Ryan engaged our host and it was clear they were using the same Hebrew letter definitions we'd learned in a Hebrew language class many years ago. We did not press on every letter, but we can reasonably presume they have some of the letters incorrectly defined.

At the end of the session I asked for and was given a cite for a text book which goes through the entire set of card definitions, including letter definitions. I was told this text includes both the alphabet letter definitions as well as grids from these cards out to other systems, including the Zodiac.

The Zodiac, of course, is just the constellations around the ecliptic of the stars in the sky. That there is such a grid was also a trigger point for me because the "Star Field" is one of my listed future exhibits. If there is a well known grid, say from the alphabet, to the sky, then perhaps there is a system passed by history that provides a mapping from the alphabet ultimately to the timeline. If so, this is a very serious addition to our general understanding.

Ryan and I both realized that even if there is such a historical grid of the alphabet out to the sky, I will probably end up needing to correct it, just as I did with Hebrew letter definitions.

So a grid of the alphabet to time may have similar errors introduced across history. In any case, this gives a starting point for the Star Field exhibit beyond a simple map of stars in the sky.

I have found and bookmarked the recommended textbook on Amazon. I will order a copy once I am back to my normal routine.

Tarot As Religion

The other component of the day was watching how the Tarot cards were being used. It would cause Ryan and I to have a long running conversation once we were out of the room. We needed a time and a place where we could talk freely.

The first issue was just the vocabulary word. Using a set of Tarot cards creates what they call a "reading." This is the same term as Cayce used with his prophetic gifting, though his gifts were not at all like Tarot. We at least could see where his term came from. So he did not see a reason to distance himself from this practice, which he probably should have done.

We were also struck by how Cayce, who is best described as some sort of Christian prophet, ended up with an organization that is far from standard Christianity. The modern organization that is the heir to Cayce's work seems to ride on his fame, but removes his faith. This would be a strong warning to our own work. Is there something in our work which we could do now to stop something similar happening, say 100 years from now?

It did not help Cayce's legacy that most of the donor money seems to have been from Zionist Jews from New York. Those donors appear in part to have removed Christianity from Cayce. There is evidence in the biography that this was going on, even in the 1920s.

Shifting to what we saw in the room that day, it was clear that many in the room were genuine in seeking a prophetic word from god. Our recent lessons in the Divine Name problem let us forgive not knowing the correct name. But, they also do not know much about him. They don't seem to know details to the level of what Cayce himself wrote about Jesus. So they start at a serious deficit and are trying to fill in much that could be learned just be reading the Bible and paying attention to Cayce's notes. There were many books in the gift shop that would have started them on such a journey.

But then there is the problem of using a deck of 78 cards. It demands a massive amount of speculation on the part of the person using that deck.

Here is where we had to review our own understanding of the lots calculators on the BRB and TT apps. When we got rid of chance lots we shifted to a system where someone MUST get a number prophetically before they can go read a passage. Tarot is mostly just chance, though there is room to argue me. This day helped solidify how it was the right thing to remove chance lots from the apps.

We also make a distinction in terms of the use of prayer. If you do NOT pray before lots, then, you get what you deserve. When you do not pray, you are back to standard games of chance. This is just like all the games that use standard decks of playing cards, which is where Tarot originates.

Our host at our table knew this problem, and insisted on prayer before the Tarot cards were used. (Of course not knowing the Divine Name.) This practice is in the right direction, even if the Tarot cards are quite crude. This is perhaps why we were at that particular table that day.

Ryan and I did have fun entertaining how the cards drawn on each of us probably were mildly prophetic. They were not particularly actionable, unlike our own use of lots, but those cards did appear to be very mildly descriptive of stuff going on with us.

The other main difference that we see with lots is how they form clear stories. The better you know the text, the easier it is to follow a story that forms in a typical lot set. Lots reward the study of scripture. Lots work best when the symbolic vocabulary of the text is well understood. They work best when there is a ministry reason, not a selfish reason, to use them.

Finally, we both felt that we gained enough understanding that we could eventually witness to people who currently use Tarot. We could potentially walk someone out of that world and introduce them to Joshua instead.

Joshua did add a final point. Those who practice Tarot are not generating any sort of spiritual fruit. The time they spend on this practice would best be spent in other ways. Tarot is ultimately a child of the Jewish religion.

Once we were done digesting our time at the Edgar Cayce visitor center, we were then able to let Joshua speak to us about other things, especially about our project schedule and then about Virginia itself. These are worth noting here in the blog for future reference.

Project Schedule

As I hinted at in previous blogs, Joshua was taking us to the topic of manuscript audit work and eventual cipher work. We were told not to rush this, that we have at least a year and a half ahead of us on these topics. We need to take them in order, with audit work now, and then cipher work later.

We had a long discussion, especially on the trip west, about the work flow needed to perform the audit work. I will be working the code for that work flow here soon. I have some changes to make in our diary system first.

In all of our previous conversations, including side conversations with folks who follow this blog, we have described the manuscript recovery task as finding the inspired manuscript which exists buried within the manuscripts of the Bible as passed to us by history. This sounds simple enough, and sounds easy enough to go code up. As some readers here have proposed, this could maybe be done using some Ai system.

Ryan and I were seriously corrected on our understanding of this goal.

This definition is easy to understand, but missing a key point. We are out to recover a lost language, which has both a lexicon and grammar, and also recover a lost manuscript written using that lost language. It is not strictly Aramaic converted to Paleo letters. The Aramaic grammar is similar, but NOT the same.

So the recovery process is not just an audit process. It involves a very different set of work steps and thus a very different work flow. The goal is to recover both the lost grammar and manuscript of the inspired parts of the Bible. This is NOT really an Ai problem. It is not just a problem of geometry following a pattern written on paper. It does not flow directly from the 3d work.

Hint: It actually naturally builds on the work Ryan has been doing with the BRB and TT for several years. I will remain his technical support. We will build out the needed tooling to add more power to his current setup. We were given a detailed prophetic download about how to conquer this problem. More on that in future blogs.

War

Our Unleavened Bread holiday week took place at Virginia Beach, Virginia. While we were there, the United States was moving around heavy weaponry in order to attack Iran. Much of that hardware was naval.

The USS Abraham Lincoln is one of the big pieces in that build up against Iran. The USS Gerald Ford is the other. That second aircraft carrier is expected to arrive in the middle east about the time this blog goes out. We are likely looking to a start of this war on the next watch dates. More on that below.

Because we were at Virginia Beach, Virginia, Joshua wanted to use our time there to speak to us about that location. He adjusted our understanding of what is going to happen to the future geometry of the USA as this war slowly unfolds. Before getting into the new stuff, let me review what we know so far.

Western Boundaries

For many years Ryan and I have traveled the western USA. We have learned from those travels that the future western boarder of the USA will generally follow the Missouri River. A Chinese ground invasion is what will redraw the map. I have covered this in the blog in years past.

There is a carve out in Texas. So the triangle of Texas survives the ground invasion, this includes Austin, for example, which will remain American.

We do not know what becomes of Louisiana. So we don't know if Texas will remain geographically part of the USA via a land bridge or if there will be a gap. There are also still open issues for us along the Canadian border in states like Montana.

We don't normally travel the east coast, so we have had no reason to think there are similar problems on the eastern seaboard. That started to change this past week. We don't have a complete map. But we have a start.

Virginia Beach, Map

The link here is to Google Maps, with the target location being Virginia Beach, Virginia. Readers of this blog on the east coast may know this location well, readers elsewhere may not know this area at all. You can zoom in and out and scroll around in order to learn the overall lay of that land.

The easiest features to spot are the 2 big bridges that go north and then northwest from Virginia Beach itself. US-13 goes north across the entrance to the Chesapeake Bay. That bridge is about 17 miles long. The other important bridge going out from Virginia Beach is the bridge for I-64 going to the northwest. It crosses the mouth of the James River where that river empties into Chesapeake Bay.

Note how Norfolk is the main city just west of Virginia Beach. Virginia Beach has a higher population so it shows up quicker on some national maps.

Note how this is on the south side of the Chesapeake Bay. Upriver on the James River is Jamestown, where the USA was first founded. Ultimately Washington DC, the current national capital, is also upriver from Chesapeake Bay.

From our motel room looking out at the Atlantic, we could see large sea going vessels that were coming and going from the mouth of Chesapeake Bay. That river complex is an important shipping hub.

Chesapeake Bay Bridge

The link here is to a Youtube video that explains the construction of the bridge that you see on Google Maps as US-13, it goes way north over the water.

This video answers the question, Why did this bridge need to go under water? There is currently an expansion project under way there to bring the bridge to 4 lanes all the way across the bay. That expansion is a hard problem, as the video explains, which is a fun reason to watch.

Hampton Roads Bridge

The link here is to another Youtube video dealing with the I-64 bridge that crosses the James River north of Norfolk harbor. We drove this to get to Jamestown. We drove it again when we left the area on I-64. This bridge is also undergoing a massive expansion, going from 4 lanes to 8 lanes because of commuter traffic. This work is also being done under water with a massive tunnel boring machine.

This bridge had the same problem as the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. It needed to be built under water. Why?

Naval Station Norfolk

The link here is to the Grokipedia entry for Naval Station Norfolk. (This is my first use of a link to Grokipedia, just for the fun of it.) You can read through that article for details on that shipyard.

The key point is this is the world's largest naval base, home to 105 ships. There are also supporting installations from other branches of the US military spread across the area.

The primary history of this base goes back to World War I. It allows the USA to project naval power across the Atlantic. It is a source of power over all the earth's oceans.

Note that the American land war against Russia in Ukraine is being lost. So that war is shifting to a sea war against Russia. Norfolk is one of the tools that makes this shift possible.

The next largest US Naval base is Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. Third largest is the Kitsap family of bases in Puget Sound in Washington State.

So why did those 2 bridges need tunnels?

So no falling debris from a bridge collapse could interfere with passage of Naval ships to and from this Norfolk naval base. Especially important was that those bridges could never interfere with US Aircraft carriers.

My point? Get your head around how important Norfolk is to the future World War that follows the story of Noah.

Prophetic Future

We learned about that area once we arrived in Virginia Beach. About what you can learn in the links above. The main industry is the military. That Norfolk harbor is the home port of the US Navy.

The prophetic added a different vocabulary, one we had not heard before.

Using the vocabulary of scripture, the main industry of that area is death. Those who live and work in this area are in the shadow of death.

As a culture, Americans use the term "defense" as the title for this industry. Joshua uses simpler terms, their industry is death. This extends upriver to the Pentagon. The main industry of most of northern Virginia is also simply death.

Think about the Epstein files. Their industry is also death.

Strange, this all links back to the Garden of Eden. That was where death entered the world. The Hivite, so cousin of the Jebusites, so modern Pharaoh, so the war against Iran. All connected. Death.

Nuclear War Targets

After several days of listening to Joshua about the Virginia region, we came to understand that all of the military installations in Virginia are nuclear first strike targets.

When the war goes Nuclear, we believe starting in 2029, these locations will be targets for the biggest weapons ever created. Those locations will simply cease to exist. They will go up in nuclear smoke.

The coastal plain of most of the state of Virginia as we know it now will simply go up in smoke. What remains will be a few survivors in the mountains of western Virginia.

The New Virginia Plan

The link here is to an article on Unz that I found AFTER we gained this prophetic understanding. There is a map in that article that amplifies our prophetic understanding of what survives.

Last fall the Democrats regained control of the government of the state of Virginia. This is a very, very woke bunch. There is now nothing left of the Christian heritage first seeded into Virginia soon after the 1607 landing at Jamestown. The Jebusites have fully taken over.

The strip of counties along the state line with West Virginia are where the woke mob does not have full control. That article explains these are candidate counties for joining West Virginia, though that will not likely happen as it would take a vote from the Virginia legislature.

As we drove out of Virginia we went up through that territory. It is the mountainous region that was traditionally part of Appalachia.

Our line along the Missouri River in the western USA now has a line in western Virginia going the other way. Imagine a line in Virginia, 1 county in from West Virginia. The territory east of that line becomes smoke.

Note importantly how we are measuring this by nuclear targets, not by ground invasion. So the timing and tech are different. There are presumably other nuclear targets scattered around which we do not yet understand. But we can see the basic parameters of what is going to happen in that region. The future there is not good.

Watch Dates

We are currently watching a cluster of prophetic dates starting on Sunday, 2026-02-22. This is the Sunday after this blog goes out.

That particular date is the replay of the last year of Solomon's reign. So we would more likely be looking at Monday, or the change in date from Sunday to Monday.

The following date, so Monday, 2026-02-23, is the first year of Rehoboam's reign. Famously, that reign started the civil war that broke the ancient nation into 2 parts.

Note we recently spotted a story in Isaiah 8:14, where the ancient nation was considered 3 distinct parts. Both houses of Israel were distinct from Jerusalem, home of the Jebusites. Jerusalem was never a covenant people.

Note that the north/south split that began at that civil war is now the split between Russia and the west, specially NATO. How this ancient split in the kingdom unfolds in headlines is going to be the main question to answer given headlines next week.

The modern replay of that ancient Civil war is over by 2026-02-06, so the Thursday after this blog goes out.

Also, curious to note. These prophetic dates are almost exactly 3 calendar YEARS from the Noah related stories in 2029. Those 3 years of civil war amongst the tribes that we are seeing for next week might mark the start of 3 years of war ahead of nuclear war. It will be easier to judge this once next week is over.

Iran?

We remain focused on the US military build up against Iran. We have been watching this for weeks. Iran is still the first place to watch for possible fulfillment for this cluster of watch dates.

Jews don't generally like going to war on Sabbath, so they may wait until the Sunday after this blog goes out. The timeline would point more strongly at the Monday after this blog goes out. We'll see.

If something is active by the Monday after this blog goes out, it should lighten up some by the following Thursday.

The net outcome of this should be some sort of east/west split. China and Russia are both helping Iran in various ways. Should Iran at least survive, the west may find itself at war with Russia and China in some more formal way.

There has been much speculation on X that the USS Abraham Lincoln might be used in a false flag against Iran. This seems silly as the Iranians may simply target that ship.

If Iran significantly damages American assets, this may be used in the US Congress for a more formal declaration of war, which of course would run 3 years as per the prophetic story.

Travel

We returned home from the Virginia trip on Thursday. These long drives leave a feeling like Jet Lag. It will take a few days to get rested and return to a normal routine.

Scripture Apps

Ryan will be updating scripture apps as this blog goes out. This week's updates are mostly bug fixes from stuff we saw while using the apps on the road.

Headline Review

The following caught my attention this week.

USS Gerald Ford Deployed

The link here is to a post on X, dated February 12, 2026, that dates the order to deploy this 2nd carrier to the Middle East. These are always a little fuzzy in terms of dates. The military itself does not always immediately release these sorts of orders to the public.

Epstein List

The link here is to a post on X with a longer list of names in the Epstein files. This list only goes through S, so no T names. Think Trump. This is at least a hint as to the scope of Epstein's work.

2001 Epstein Canyon

The link here is to a post on X showing Epstein files by year. There is a gap across 911. This is one of several data points suggesting he was involved in 911 because his files are being scrubbed. Think dancing Israelis.

Satanic Olympics

The link here is to a Gospa News article dealing with the Satanic symbolism in the opening ceremony on February 6, 2026. I previously posted that this is common, but that I had not yet seen anyone review that ceremony for this year.

This year was much more toned down than in previous years, but satanic symbolism was still there.

xAI All Hands

The link here is to a post on X by Steven Mark Ryan. It is a super cut of an xAI event that summaries current status in Elon Musk's AI platform. The video has about 38 minutes of xAI material.

This includes some limited video of the data center itself, located near Memphis, TN.

This is the center location on the Qu Map of the USA, and this is likely the fulfillment for a "brain" located at the center of the map.

We previously pointed at Saint Louis as a possible venue for such a thing. Saint Louis picks off the idea of mapping, a subset of the skills needed to think.

Anyway, this video provides curious details on what Musk's AI team is currently doing.

This work is now part of SpaceX. This means cash flow from Star Link will keep the xAI work funded even as there is a collapse in venture capital for most other AI related work. So shifting xAI to SpaceX was also a very nice financial trick. By providing steady funding, Musk may have just won the AI war.

First Cybercab

The link here is to a post on X where Musk congratulates the team at Tesla for the first Cybercab off the production line in Austin, TX. A more uplifting headline than most this week. This is another vehicle in the Tesla lineup.

Long term, the Cybercab may change transportation as we know it. We may not need most city buses. We may find ride hailing starts to work in suburban and rural areas. This is a very interesting tech to watch.

Musk and Faith

For a long time I have believed that Elon Musk is not like most of the other billionaires in the world. He is more like a man of faith. A more precise church term would be "seeker." This post on X is recent evidence in support of my hunch.

Problem With Patents

One of the biggest lies taught in school deals with the purposes of Patents filed with the US Patent office. Students are usually taught you need a patent to protect your invention.

That office is one of the many Zionist control points for the entire country. This link reviews the actual law that matters. This post suggests there are over 6000 inventors who are the current victims of that law.

If you must, then trade secrets are better than patents. The Coke formula survived much longer as a secret than it would have if it had been patented.

More Later,

Parables From Isaac

Phil Stone — Fri, 13 Feb 2026 22:58:49 GMT

This blog looks at exhibit related parables from the patriarch Isaac. Then a headline review for this holiday week blog.

Holiday Travel

This past week Ryan and I have been traveling. Last year we traveled to the Museum of the Bible in Washington DC and saw the Megiddo Mosaic. That exhibit seriously impacted us. We spent months fully appreciating what we had seen. Most of my own 3d design work this past year was driven by what we learned last year.

This year's travel did not have such a central destination. We have been back to the State of Virginia. We have visited some historical sites related to the founding of the USA. By the time this blog goes out, we will be headed west.

Our time this week has been focused on a long conversation about our work, especially work priorities this coming year.

Since last year's trip, the focus has been on 3d modeling and the exhibits. I have not really done any other serious work, especially no serious software work, especially work on manuscript audit or manuscript multiplication.

Our focus in this next season of work will be to make some progress on these other long outstanding manuscript goals.

As we typically do on holiday weeks, we generally do daily lot sets. Joshua has been taking us to various scripture stories where the audit and cipher systems are being described in various ways.

These are in passages where we never thought the exhibits were needed for interpretation. What we have seen this week is how there is quite a bit more of the inspired text which cannot be understood without knowing all of the exhibits and how they are used.

We found a particularly interesting passage from Isaac's day that can only be understood once the whole set of cipher systems are also understood. Let me review the key exhibit which deals with the ciphers and then return to Isaac's prophetic story.

Gold Series 3d Models

The 3d designs that inform the letter forms used in the alphabet break down into various series. There are 4 such series. They are named following the order of precious metals. Though the whole system starts with a star 3d model, the first full 3d series is the "gold" series.

This particular series is exhibited on what we call the "Mount of Olives." This provides ground truth for the interrelations between various 2d shapes and their associated 3d objects. These objects spread out and down across a model of a mountain.

This gold set of 3d objects also assemble into either a silo or a well. These become full sized exhibits of their own. When the text references either water, or wells, silos, or the grains that can be placed in silos, it is referencing the gold series of 3d models. The 2 fish and 5 loaves of bread are thus also related to this exhibit. The fish are from water the loaves are from grain. So the feeding of the 5000 is a parable based on the gold series.

After ground truth is established on the Mount of Olives exhibit, these shapes also show up on the Fig Tree. On the Fig Tree they spread out and up from a central trunk. When configured out into empty space these 3d objects are merged with the silver series. Together they can be assembled into various configurations. Looked at from across the top of the tree, they form what we call "ciphers" which are the basis for manuscript multiplication.

The tree itself sits on a special base that functions as its own carrying case, about like the chests that have already been designed. The trunk of the tree must be affixed to the top of this exhibit, so there is a (narrow) door on the front so the tree can be packed for storage and travel.

The Fig Tree is the central exhibit. It occupies the better part of a room. The tree itself can be configured in many different ways, independent of the ground truth, or initial configuration, of the 3d objects themselves.

Different configurations of the tree thus become mechanical descriptions of different alphabet related ciphers. Some of those configurations, so ciphers, can then be applied to the text itself, creating additional volumes.

Isaac To Mountain

The life story of Isaac appears to hit many details related to the exhibits that I just spelled out above. The first story in Isaac's life is linked here, in Genesis 22:2, where Abraham takes young Isaac and presents him on a mountain.

In normal texts this is Moriah, so modern Temple Mount. An editor may have shifted this from the Mount of Olives. Even if not edited, the Mount of Olives is a short walk away from Moriah.

The main point is that Isaac is being taken to a mountain. That story in the Genesis narrative is hinting at what we currently call the Mount of Olives exhibit. Much of the rest of Isaac's own life story is going to be following the gold related exhibits as well, especially the Fig Tree.

By verse 15 in this story, the contract made with Abraham is expanded, and we are told how Abraham's seed will be multiplied. This, of course, is a pointer at the Lost Tribes story. It also extends to the stars.

But let me add, that this is Isaac's trip to this place too, and the multiplication also relates to a multiplication of the seed, so the text, that is figuratively stored in the silo object. We are starting to see the parables in this section of Genesis as being related to manuscript multiplication.

You can read down through the remaining stories that deal with Abraham and you will eventually find Abraham sending a servant to fetch a wife for Isaac. This picks up at Genesis 24:59. Rebekah will of course become Isaac's wife. But note the blessing found in Genesis 24:60, how she will become mother of 1000s and of 1,000,000s.

This is a setup for the parables that follow. The text itself is going to multiply. Rebekah is the symbolic mother of that manuscript ciphering process.

Isaac's Wife

The link here is to Genesis 26 in the BRB. Here we pick up the story of Isaac in a chapter that is full of allusions to the gold series of exhibits.

The first point is that there is a famine in the land. Isaac is told to remain in the land. He is not to go to Egypt. He is told to remain in the land and watch his seed be multiplied.

Egypt, so Pharaoh, is symbolic of the additional writings we know of as the additions. Beyond the bible, Pharaoh's writings are seriously larger. This happens when we consider the off-Bible canon of writing by the little pharaohs, the pharisees. This includes the Talmud and the Kabbalah.

Isaac is warning us that the Egyptian path to additional spiritual food is not to be taken. Those are not the path to life.

By the tail end of Genesis 26:5, there is a subdivision that appears to hint that the additional ciphered volumes will break down into 4 different groups. These are "1|4 my charge, 2|4 and my commandments, 3|4 and my contracts, 4|4 and my laws." We will see these 4 referenced again in the New Testament in the story of the feeding of the 5000. It may be that all lists of 4 are hinting at ciphered texts, but Ryan and I cannot yet prove this.

The text plot complication in this chapter is how Isaac is afraid of Abimelek and so claims Rebekah to be his sister, and not his wife. He is caught out on this lie when he is seen embracing his wife.

This embrace between husband and wife is picturing the 2 sides of the Fig Tree. Perhaps a little arbitrarily, let me follow the left-to-right reading direction and claim the left side of Fig Tree is the male side. The right side is the female side. The left produces seed, the right captures seed. The left is the original source document. The right produces the child documents through a process similar to carrying a baby to term.

By Genesis 26:12 we continue the parable. Isaac sows in the land and receives 100 fold of barley. So Isaac would be filling his silos, which is one of the other gold series objects. By Genesis 26:15 we see the Philistines are jealous and fill the wells dug earlier by Abraham. Again, wells are created from the same gold series of 3d items. We are in a parable dealing with both of those items.

The story then goes on, picking up at Genesis 26:19, we find Isaac's men have dug a well of living water. This is a term that references additional volumes. Joshua will use it with the Woman at the Well. Living water is the path to everlasting life.

But if we keep reading, we find a story of 3 different wells. 2 of them require Isaac to move. The 3rd is where he can settle and grow.

What are those wells parables for? These are references to books. A memory peg for this might be "ink well" from which written works always spring.

Isaac has 3 earlier books. He has Enoch's book, so well 1. Isaac has Noah's book, so well 2. Isaac has Abraham's book, so well 3. These are the books that Isaac can cipher into living water, so more volumes.

The story of Enoch is his record of Adam and Eve leaving Eden. The story of Noah is his story of leaving the pre-flood world, likely Mars, and coming here. The story of Abraham is the spreading out across the earth. So the details surrounding Isaac's wells are designed to tell us these are parables for the earlier books in the canon. These are where living water comes from.

Isaac left well 1 because Adam left Eden. Isaac left well 2 because Noah left the pre-flood world. But Isaac can settle down at well 3 because Abraham settles into the land.

Cipher Math

Let me now address something on the math. Isaac has the inspired writing of only Enoch, Noah, and his own father, Abraham. Nothing else in our current canon has been written.

The ciphers look to create something like 32 more volumes, though this is complex and subject to more work. The 3d models are a 2 to the power of 5 system, so would allow for 32 different ciphers. One of them may be a null cipher.

But some of these ciphers may not actually function. Instead, some ciphers may be used again with inbound documents that are the output of earlier cipher steps. In this scenario, there are multiple generations of documents.

Remember the promise to Rebekah? She was told first 1000 children, then 1,000,000 children. So she has multiple generations of offspring. So some ciphers look to create documents which will themselves create more additional documents.

With those caveats, a first approximation, goes something like this, those 3 earlier writings, should they be ciphered 32 times each, will create 96 documents. This is approximately the same as the 100 fold harvest which is what Isaac received. This story is written to indicate Isaac was ciphering the earlier texts.

This is a parable dealing with the ciphering process, not a physical famine as such.

By Genesis 26:24 the story picks up with more details. Isaac moves on, pitches his tent, and then digs yet another, so 4th, well.

This tent would be a "Tent of Time" type of tent, with exhibits. But Isaac's well would be symbolic of the 4th writing in what will become the inspired canon. In his writing he is giving a parable for the work he did, how he ran the ciphers and how he wrote more scripture.

There are many more stories where this same set of gold series exhibits is being referenced in the text. Additional volumes is a main theme of the base documents. The "tree of life" is the Fig Tree. It produces additional volumes, called living waters, which is the means to everlasting life.

I will return to more examples where the text is discussing these topics in future blogs. It looks to be a main topic for this coming year.

Ryan and I still have more travel before we are back to our desks. Life should mostly return to normal by next week.

Watch Dates

There are no specific watch dates this coming week.

The next watch dates are 2026-02-22 and 2026-02-23 where we will be watching the replay of the last year of Solomon and the first year of Rehoboam.

The start of Rehoboam's reign marked the start of a 3 year civil war, with the splitting of the kingdom. More on this in next week's blog.

Match Dates

There has now been several weeks of lingering headlines involving an American armada being built up around Iran in order for Israel to defeat Iran.

This is the last regional power in the middle east where Israel does not control the local government. Iran is not bowing down to western wishes this time around, and is apparently willing to fight for itself.

The American side risks loss of assets, and reputation, that are not easy nor quick to replace. Aircraft carriers take a decade or more to build.

Late this past Wednesday, so February 10, 2026, there was a visit to Washington DC by Netanyahu. So our prophetic Pharaoh, the biggest pharisee, went to visit his American vassal. Netanyahu is making these trips, on average, about every 2 months.

There has been widespread speculation on alternative media that this visit involves Netanyahu trying to force the USA to attack Iran. If Trump does not follow orders, Netanyahu is expected to release more Epstein files against Trump. Late this week we learned Trump is still not willing to attack Iran, at least not immediately.

Headline Review

The following headlines caught my attention this week.

The first set are all related to Epstein. This has been a very important topic, there has not been anything like it, perhaps in all of American history. The American government has lost credibility in the eyes of the public. Everyone in high public office is now presumed caught up in blackmail. Everything they say is measured against what is being learned from those files.

On some recent days, Epstein has been nearly the only topic on platforms like X.

Epstein Still Alive

The link here is to a post on X with one of many photographs currently in circulation that shows Epstein walking around with a security detail of 2 other men. Photographs like this strongly suggest Epstein is still alive. He has grown out his hair. He is getting his tattoo removed.

Related evidence involves his use of various online platforms that continued after his supposed death. Sorry, no link for this.

Slow Rupture

The link here is to an article on Unz by Alastair Crooke dealing with the Epstein files. He argues there is a slow motion rupture going on between western Elites and the general public. Nobody in current governments, aside from a very few, has any credibility left in the eyes of the public.

The general alternative media space is unable to fully explain Epstein because this is a religious headline. Epstein and his clients practice Satanism. The liberal west does not know how to discuss this in public because it is an obscure religious topic from the Bible. Additionally, most well known public voices are members of the same cult.

Epstein Bomb

This is another article on Unz, this one by Greg Johnson. This is another commentary on the impact of the Epstein files on public opinion towards western governments. About the only way to rebuild trust is to start again. Everyone in high public office must be assumed to be part of the problem.

Olympic Cauldrons Lit

The link here is to a post on X by RT with a video clip of the lighting of the Olympic Games Cauldrons. This was on February 6, 2026. This was the last prophetic date, so last Friday. This was the date for when Solomon's Palace was finished.

I would treat the entire Olympic Games movement as a part of the plan to unite the world under a single king. This has been the plan since Solomon.

Most Olympic games opening ceremonies are laced with Satanic symbolism. It has always been a mystery to figure out what the mechanism would be for this to be so. The Epstein files explain a lot. Everyone, of any political significance, anywhere in the western world, is likely a member of the cult. So now, this pattern is easy to explain, not hard.

I have not seen any specific content reviews of this year's opening ceremonies. So I do not know if the satanic pattern continued this time around. That the Olympics matches Solomon suggests that institution is compromised.

Olympics Opening Ceremony

The link here is to a minor detail of the opening ceremony of the Olympics. One of the national teams was booed by the audience in the stadium. Take a guess which team. Take a guess as to why.

Ban Orders, Temple Mount

The link here is to a Pal Info website article dealing with more changes to Israeli rules on Temple mount. This is dated February 6, 2026, and is another headline related to the replay of Solomon's temple building projects. This is not that severe of a headline, but still worth the note. Israel is cracking down on Muslims on the mount.

Settling In China

This is a link to an article on Based Underground that suggests China's Xi still remains in power. The internal working of China is hard for outsiders to track.

This at least hints that Xi still remains in control of the Chinese government and is able to conduct international relations. This is public proof he is alive and well in China.

Tariffs from USA Against Iran

The link here is to a post on X by Megatron detailing a February 6, 2026, signing of a decree by Trump which applies another 25 percent tariff against countries doing business with Iran.

This is thought by others to be against China, which is curious.

Tariffs are an act of war, so should the USA bomb Iran, we might date it back to February 6, 2026, the end of Solomon's building project.

Iran Army Building Fire

This is a post on X from Throwback Iran that shows a picture purported to be of a fire at an Iranian army building in Tehran. This would be another way to mark the start of a covert war against Iran at this same 2026-02-06 prophetic date, the end of Solomon's building phase.

More Cargo

The link here is to a post on X dated February 10, 2026, which shows more flight tracking data suggesting the USA is continuing to load supplies into the Middle East. Prep work is still underway for an attack on Iran.

War At Sea

This link is to a February 10, 2026, article on Military Watch Magazine detailing recent developments where the "collective west" so Israel through her various vassals, is setting up a network of control points that appear to be cutting Asian countries off from energy supplies delivered by Sea.

This same subject was covered by Helmer on Nima's Dialog Works Youtube channel the day before. The Helmer video may have been the impetus for this article.

Helmer adds a few more details. The Russians are debating the problem of the west shifting the Ukraine war front to the earth's oceans. The Ukraine is loosing, of course, but the west still controls the seas, thus the shift in venue for the war against Russia and China to a venue where the west is in control.

Zionism does not operate as an equal. It wants to rule the world.

These shifts from Ukraine to the earth's oceans creates a world war. This is starting to touch on Monk Paisios' prophetic words that point at fights over shipping as the start of the war.

SpaceX To The Moon

The link here is to an Ellie in Space video on Youtube. In this video she explains the recent SpaceX change in focus from Mars to the Moon. This has been an armchair pundit complaint against SpaceX for a while. Why not start with the moon? It is closer after all.

The main point is that iterating the tech for a remote space city is much faster on the moon than on Mars. Once that tech is worked out on the moon, it should be relatively easy to send copies of that same tech to Mars.

I would also take this as a sign that Elon is back paying attention to details within his companies. This is a good thing.

More Later,

Phil

Ezekiel's Bones

Phil Stone — Fri, 06 Feb 2026 20:47:46 GMT

This blog introduces a big update to the Ezekiel's Bones website. Then notes on current headlines.

Exhibit Work

In August of 2023 I began working on cases for displaying the various 3d models that are related to the Paleo alphabet. At that time I did an update to the Ezekiel's Bones website with a list of planned exhibits. It was also the planned home for model downloads. There was a first draft of the lamp that was placed online at the time.

At that time I did not understand the work ahead. I would eventually read Elon's Musk's biography. The critical point of his success is the use of an iterative design process. He is willing to toss old designs and try again, over and over and over again as needed. Though it is taking Space X more time than anyone first thought, you can see that process at work as their Star Ship program comes together.

Once I saw how this works, I started using the same technique in my own 3d work. Designs have improved significantly. My story telling skill and general technique has also greatly improved.

It has been just about 2.5 years since that last update on Ezekiel's Bones. Oh how time flies.

Last week I went back to that website with an intention of doing an update. I ended up doing a rewrite. There are now only 2 articles, both new.

As Ryan and I are traveling this week, I did not want to write a long blog. I thought those articles would make interesting reading for anyone following this blog. Here are the links.

Ezekiel's Bones Introduction

The link here is to the front page on that website. That page carries a written introduction to the exhibits that populate the "Tent of Time." What are they for? Why do they exist? This is the home tab on that site.

Exhibit Previews

The link here is to the 2nd page on that website, the Preview tab. This page contains a list of all of the exhibits that are either fabricated or still planned.

They are sorted in a rough order to help introduce them, basically in the order a new visitor might actually notice them for the first time.

I have selected shop photos for each exhibit that has been rendered so far in the 3d print farm. If you've been following on telegram you have probably seen most of these photos.

This is a really interesting status review of the work so far, and of the work still ahead.

No Scripture Updates This Week

Because this is the middle of a holiday week, there are no scripture updates this week. This keeps the story set constant across the holiday so anyone doing daily lots is not upset with a change in the set of possible lot locations.

Match Dates

The day this blog goes out, so 2026-02-06, is the replay of the year 10000 AA. This is the end of Solomon's Temple and Palace building projects. This is the alternative date for the replay of Solomon's Temple dedication. This is the alternative date for blood on the river as per the plagues series that is just now starting.

Last week I covered the ICE killing in Minneapolis as the best fulfillment so far.

The 2026 WEF meetings appeared to match the time of building Solomon's temple. Negotiations between the USA and Iran appear to be the match for Solomon's palace building project. This gets confirmed if we can get into the weekend of February 7, 2026, and those discussions are over.

As I review this blog on February 6, 2026, President Trump is expected to make some announcements later this same date, probably dealing with Iran. We will return to Iran in next week's blog, after we see how this plays out.

Remember, all dates have a natural tolerance of 1 day. Weekends can also shift off fulfillment headlines. Jews also don't like starting wars on Sabbath.

Watch Dates

Our next watch date is the end of Solomon's reign which will land on 2026-02-22. This is still about 2 weeks out, but we may be getting headlines running up to that date. Let me explain so readers here can follow along.

Ryan and I assign the plague of frogs to that date in honor of Solomon's 1000 women. Think venereal disease.

There is no intermediate date within Solomon's reign that would be obvious for some matched headline, so we just leave the plague at the end of Solomon's reign. Though the Epstein files drop on 2026-01-30 would be a candidate for a match.

Beware, we may see a matched headline sometime before the end of Solomon at February 22, 2026.

During the 2008 financial crisis, the matched plague was the resignation of the governor of the state of New York. This was because of a scandal dealing with prostitution.

Current headlines on the same topic are the Epstein file releases, so this is a matched domain from that earlier headline.

I would look to some high level American government official to resign as our current prophetic match to that same plague. I would guess this springs from something in the Epstein files. The state of New York may be involved.

These same files are apparently being used by Netanyahu to force Trump to attack Iran, which explains the new drop of Epstein files. Trump appears to have been unwilling to attack Iran as originally scheduled when Netanyahu visited Trump in Miami at the start of the year.

Here are a few links related to the Epstein files that may inform this next headline/plague.

Mike Adams Commentary

The link here is to a post on X by Mike Adams. Mike does a nice job of explaining why Trump is being blackmailed and why Trump is likely to be leaving office soon. So Mike Adams is unknowingly suggesting to look at Trump for our next main prophetic headline.

Trump Compromised

Another post on X explaining how Trump is compromised. Epstein file releases by the DOJ redacted most of Epstein's famous client names. Trump's name was not always redacted, but may still have been redacted at times, we don't know. This implies the DOJ is controlled by Netanyahu and they are using the files to force Trump to attack Iran.

Again, we will need to see what happens with Iran to understand how this will actually play out.

Bill Gates In the Files

This is to a post on X where Bill Gates is referenced in the recent Epstein files dump. Curiously, he is described as catching a sexual disease on Epstein Island and then looking for medicine he could slip to his wife unknowingly. For those who may not remember, Bill Gates' wife divorced him unexpectedly and suddenly. This may be why.

President Bush Sr.

Apparent Confirmation

Another post on X detailing current releases from the Epstein files dumped by the DOJ. This time, horrific acts by that former US President. The 2nd link provides some confirmation of the practices.

The 1905 book called the "Protocols of Zion" spelled out the way that Zionists control most politicians. All of these dumps from the Epstein files are modern examples of the technique worked out long ago. Epstein was not the first. Epstein will not be the last.

Headline Review

The following headlines caught my attention this week.

Metropolitan Capital Bank and Trust

The link here is to the first post on X where there was an announcement of the collapse of a Chicago based bank. This was on 2026-01-30, a Friday.

There were 2 immediate points that were very important. Banks do not normally fail on weekdays. Bank failures are usually handled on weekends in order to maintain stability for customers. So why Friday?

This bank is located in Chicago. Chicago is the traditional city where futures are traded in the USA. This was not a particularly big bank, but may have specialized services for futures traders. This matters because that same day saw a massive slam down of the price of gold and silver. This was done on the last trading day of January, and done through futures contracts. So this bank likely failed because of some sort of tie to the futures markets.

There have been troubles in the futures markets this past week too. This may be trouble for the currency. Many are pointing back at the 2008 financial crisis. The prophetic stories we are following also point at that era. This is an example headline of what may be still to come.

Cannibals

One of the qualities of the dietary laws in scripture is to not eat animal meat which has DNA similar to your own DNA. This is true for humans as well as other animals. Pig DNA, for example, is similar to Human DNA. Autoimmune diseases, where your own immune system attacks your own body, are a possible long term result of eating pig.

It gets much worse, and much faster, if you each food with matched DNA, not just similar DNA. Eat your own kind, and you get very sick, very fast. The link here suggests this was going on with Epstein and his clients.

Putin Knew

Putin knew about this and called it the vampire ball. People thought Putin was joking. Not any more. Pray Putin can bring it to an end provided nobody in the west can do it first.

Podesta's Frog

This post on X from Lord Bebo shows artwork from John Podesta. This is an artistic rendering of Epstein island sexual acts.

I would normally NOT link such a thing here. But it provides the body posture implied by the scriptural term "frog" that is used in this plague of frogs. Why frogs fulfills as sexual immorality has always been a mystery. Turns out, pedophilia has a specific body posture because of the mismatch in body size. Frogs is a reasonable term for that posture.

Along with everything else, Epstein was a walking plague of frogs. This past week's Epstein file drop looks to be the setup for the NEXT prophetic headline. Podesta, of course, was a senior adviser to the President.

Frogs To Pharaoh's Bed

The public is now watching everything. This is a post on X where some young man appears to try and escape from Buckingham Palace. The prophetic story suggests we look for frogs, so pedophiles, in royal residences and beds. This would be it.

Dugin on Epstein

Alexander Dugin has been having a hay day on X over the Epstein files drop. He is rightfully indicating that western civilization, itself, as a whole, is corrupt and no longer worth saving. Should we agree? Maybe there is a way to redeem it?

BIO of New Fed Chair

This link on X provides the biography of Trump's new pick to be Fed chair. Note by law the President announces the pick, but does not make the pick, it is a private bank after all. Note the Rothschild family connection of that new Fed Chair. That same family appears to still run that most important of all international private banks. They may be placing a family member there because they need careful control over something they see coming.

More Later,

Phil

Minneapolis

Phil Stone — Fri, 30 Jan 2026 21:19:18 GMT

This blog explores the ICE riots in Minneapolis, our first plague related headline. Before that, an update on divine names, with an interesting example. Then next week's watch dates and a headline review.

Divine Names

Regular readers here know Ryan has been in a fast moving season of discovery related to uses in the text of inspired divine names. He suspended updates to the scripture apps 2 weeks ago to focus on this problem. Those weekly app updates are now back to normal, with the next update online at the same time as this blog goes out.

Ryan has rechecked all divine names across the BRB. These names also transmit to the TT and related apps. There should be no more accidental divine name transformations left over from earlier work in this area.

There are still divine name related riddles. These are generally found in troubling passages where it is unclear what the original author, or editor, intent may have been. So there is still future work in this space. But, there is no longer any special work related to divine names alone.

As part of this work, Ryan found an interesting example of the use of the divine name at the start of the plagues stories of Exodus. Let me share that example with you here.

Moses Goes Before Pharaoh

The link here is to Exodus 5 in the BRB. This is the first time Moses goes before pharaoh. Note how this will turn out to be another story where the plot hangs on who knows the correct divine name. This is very much like the opening stories of Luke, where the main players do not know that name, but the angels, and readers, know the correct name.

Note that this Exodus 5 passage may have other name substitutions. As given in the Aramaic, the name of Jacob's heirs are Israel. This is likely an editor's change in name. The audit will ultimately solve this. We are in the BRB, where Israel is used. The TT and related apps use Jacob.

In the case of Moses and Pharaoh, only Moses knows Joshua's name. Pharaoh does not. This very much matters to the plot. Let me paraphrase that Exodus 5 passage for you here.

Moses and Aaron go to pharaoh. They tell pharaoh, Joshua God says to send my people Israel.

Pharaoh answers, Who is Joshua that I should obey his voice to send Israel? I do not know Joshua, nor will I send Israel.

So the setup is very similar to other places. Moses is introducing a divine name unknown to Pharaoh. It is just some name to pharaoh, an unknown god as far as pharaoh is concerned, without power to compel pharaoh to do anything.

This looks to be the FIRST TIME that someone in Abraham's family has introduced Joshua god to someone outside of the family. Normally, Abraham's family just uses generic "god" when referencing Joshua to people outside of their own clan.

This first public introduction of the name Joshua, outside of Abraham's family, explains the reason Joshua is going to plague Egypt. Joshua is proving he exists by his ordering of the plagues against the Egyptians. That proof is built around the pattern of the plagues. Moses warns, pharaoh does not listen, then the plagues come. This pattern happens repeatedly and in succession.

Follow Links

Now, if you use the options menus to turn on the Interpretive/Connection highlighting you will see how Joshua answers this retort from Pharaoh. As we can see, Pharaoh does not know Joshua in Exodus 5:2.

But Joshua will respond to pharaoh's unbelief by using the divine name Joshua in the introduction to each plague. This begins in Exodus 6:7, Where Joshua explains to Moses how pharaoh will know I am Joshua god.

Similar answers are found across all the plagues. See Exodus 7:5, 7:17, 8:10, 8:22, 9:14, 9:29, 10:2, 11:7, 14:4, 14:18, 16:6, 16:12, 18:11 and 29:46.

Joshua is performing the plagues so Pharaoh will know that Joshua is god. The plagues are a way that allows pharaoh to understand Joshua is real, and in control of the world.

This new study puts a twist on the plagues that we are about to start tracking. All the replays of the plagues down across history exist to prove that Joshua exists and is in control of the world.

Now, let me turn to the replay of the first plague, Blood on the River, as this has started to replay again this week.

Blood on River

We were watching 2026-01-24 as the expected date of the story of Solomon's temple dedication. Technically this is the point of transition from Solomon building the Temple to building his Palace. If this was 1 continuous building project this would be early for the dedication. We will check this in another couple weeks. More on this timing detail below.

This date was also a listed match to the start of the plagues on Egypt, specifically, blood on the river.

Headlines for this date came from 2 different venues. In the middle east we saw Israel clearing air space in preparations for expected retaliation from an attack on Iran. But then that venue went mostly silent, even radar silent. I will return to that venue below.

What we also saw was what many are calling an execution style shooting of a protester by ICE agents in Minneapolis. This venue is not as obvious as a prophetic match to our story. But, Minneapolis has specific history for this specific plague. So this new plague series is replaying quite closely to headlines the world knows now as the Great Financial Crisis.

Let me review that first headline from 2007, when that crisis began.

I-35W Bridge Collapse

The link here is to the I-35W bridge collapse article on Wikipedia. Let me review the key facts. The bridge was an 8 lane bridge across the Mississippi river about 1/2 mile down stream from Saint Anthony Falls. Those falls mark the upper end of commercial navigation on the Mississippi.

It collapsed on August 1, 2007. 13 people were killed, 145 were injured. Because the bridge was so important to commute traffic in the Twin Cities, a replacement bridge design was started within days. That new bridge opened for traffic on September 18, 2008.

At the time of collapse there was a refurbishment project going on where the driving surfaces were rebuilt. Heavy construction materials were stacked on the bridge deck which caused gusset plates on the lower truss members to fail.

Eventually the US Government placed blame on what they called poorly designed gusset plates. If those plates had been thicker, the failure would not have happened. But if the construction work was handled better the bridge would also not have failed.

Most of those who died in this collapse ended up in the waters of the Mississippi river. Readers here who are old enough to remember that day will remember news crew videos of divers searching through cars that were submerged, or partially submerged, in the water of the Mississippi.

This headline matched the expected prophetic date. It was a topical match because the blood of the victims was on the river of prophetic Egypt, which for that plague series was the whole USA. The Mississippi is the river of Egypt for our purposes here.

This first headline set up the USA as the venue for the rest of the plagues headlines that spread out across 2008. Those headlines were mostly related to the financial crisis that we remember from that era.

There were also political headlines including Obama becoming the plague of Arabs and the resignation of New York Governor Spitzer over using prostitutes for the plague of frogs.

OK, so Minneapolis and that I-35W bridge over the Mississippi, was the venue for the first modern replay of this plague back in 2007.

What about now?

We again have a serious headline flowing out of Minneapolis.

Operation Metro Surge

The link here is to the Wikipedia article that explains the current ICE operations in the Minneapolis metro area. This began in December, 2025. As I write this blog, that operation is still ongoing.

This has been capturing network news and social media feeds for several weeks. So at first it does not look like a point event like we normally watch for as prophetic fulfillments.

But, if you scroll down in that article you will find the killing of Alex Pretti, at the hands of ICE agents in Minneapolis, happened on 2026-01-24, our expected prophetic date.

That death has its own Wikipedia article, so we can narrow this headline to just that death. Let me switch to the specific article on Alex's killing by ICE agents.

Killing of Alex Pretti

The article linked here contains quite a bit of biography about Alex himself. For readers here who may care to learn more, you can read that article for the details.

The key point to note is where Pretti was killed. There is an interactive map, with a map pin, in that article. It shows the exact location where Alex was killed. You can zoom in and scroll around to see that this is just a long walk from the I-35W bridge across the Mississippi that is north and east from that map pin for Alex.

Strangely enough, this fulfillment is essentially at the same location as the those August 1, 2007, Minneapolis I-35W bridge deaths that began the Great Financial crisis.

We have never seen anything quite like this before. The base prophetic story of the Blood on the River is showing up at 2 different times in history, no problem, but both fulfillments are in essentially the same spot.

In the case of the I-35W bridge collapse, 13 people lost their lives by what would more generally be considered government incompetence.

In scripture there are 13 tribes, and that 2007 death toll would thus map to the tribes. Usually tribe lists are shortened to 12, which is the normal marker for a tribe list. The plagues themselves spread out across 12 dates. There is 1 plague per tribe.

In the case of what is happening with ICE in Minneapolis now, only 2 people have died so far, with others being injured. But unlike 2007, these deaths are spread out. It may not be over until we see a total of 12 or 13 killed or wounded in Minneapolis. ICE appears to need to pull out of Minnesota in order to stop this death list from growing.

Note how these deaths are also happening at the hands of government. So we should probably consider this to be government incompetence just like the bridge collapse. In the case of the bridge collapse the government blamed a specific engineering mistake in a certain engineering office when the bridge was being designed in the mid 1960s.

Notice how the government never takes blame to itself. In the case of the killing of Alex Pretti, blame will either be placed on the victim, or on the ICE agent, but not on government mismanagement of the overall operation itself.

Problem of the Videos

The link here is to a Mike Adams post on X dealing with his analysis of the videos of the killing of Alex Pretti. Mike has quite a bit of weapons related training. He explains what the ICE officers have been through in terms of their own training.

Mike does not consider this an accident because the actions of the officers involved are way out of bounds for how they were trained. Mike is bringing up the point that there may be malicious intent on the part of the federal government.

The local rioters themselves appear to be funded by state government as part of the financial fraud that has recently been found in Minnesota. Not to mean every protester is state funded, but most large protests have a core of hired, full time, protesters who provide direction for the crowds.

The ICE side of this set of battles is also government funded, but by the central government in DC. So this whole mess in Minneapolis is some sort of deadly political performance.

There are hints that the Democrats at the federal level may shut down the federal government over these events in Minneapolis.

Prophetic Stories

If we back up to the prophetic stories involved in this headline we can infer a little more as to what we are seeing in the news. The plague story of the blood on the river, found in Exodus, has no obvious cause.

As readers of the text we must deduce the cause of that blood. From the Exodus story, naive readers would think this was strictly by the hand of god. But Joshua normally works through people, including evil people like Pharaoh.

When we overlay the Exodus plague on Solomon's sacrifices we see it is by government action that causes the blood to be spilled. So we now have a second witness that pharaoh, so the king or kings involved, are the cause of each of the plagues. Joshua is using, or perhaps letting, the kings create their own plagues.

So when we look at the events in Minneapolis we are looking at the intentional, even if incompetent, actions of the people who run the state and federal governments.

Plagues Are Active

Until this headline, the idea that the plagues stories of Exodus overlay the stories of the Jerusalem kings, was only a well educated speculation based on our understanding of the text.

Now we have direct fulfillment evidence that this series is live. We can expect the rest of the series to run more or less as we have called them out. The link above is to the main article in Paleo.In where we track these headlines.

I have updated that article with notes on this fulfillment for the first plague.

Note that article lists an alternative date, 2026-02-06, for this same plague. This second date lands after the replay of Solomon's 13 years of temple building. This alternative date may be related to Iran. It shows up the Friday after this blog goes out.

Iran

So in last week's blog I suggested Iran as another possible venue for this plague. We did NOT see anyone shooting, so this did not hit directly on this first date. But let me review what has happened so far with Iran.

Airspace Clearing

The link here is to a post on X by Douglas Macgregor dealing with the clearing of airspace over Israel. This post is dated January 23, 2026, the evening before the expected prophetic date. Macgregor is a well respected analyst and was watching for war against Iran.

In that post Macgregor suggests this was the start of events dealing with an attack on Iran. I would tend to agree. The timing was good.

But nobody actually started shooting. It looks like the Israeli side, with American vassals, were hoping Iran would shoot first. This would place blame on Iran. Israel always worries about the narrative. If Iran would only shoot first, Israel could play the blame card. Think October 7. Iran did not take that bait.

Refueling Tankers

At the same time there were a series of related posts dealing with military activity in the area. The link here is typical, to a post on X dealing with the flights of refueling tankers. These tanker flights are needed for long range fighter strikes.

This looks like more bait in order to get Iran to shoot first. A mind-game war was now started against Iran.

Attacks to Begin Soon

The following day, so the 24th, on the expected prophetic date, we started seeing posts like the one linked here. Iran Daily News reported that Iran had been informed that attacks would begin soon. There were also radar outages which is common when there are movements of equipment.

So now we have the normal start-of-war messaging and it is landing on the correct date. But again, no shooting.

Iran Airspace Closed

Until April 25, 2026

By the following day, there were posts like those linked here, that on the 24th or 25th Iran had issued a NOTAM that closed all airspace over Iran to private and low flying aircraft for a period of 3 months. So 90 days. Until April 25, 2026.

So Iran was now responding, taking at least some public action over likely soon attacks. So something did start at the correct date, but again, no shooting.

Much Speculation

There was quite a few comments by well placed sources that spread across various social media that seemed to explain what happened.

1) The strike on Iran had been planned at the 24th, so after the close of Davos. Macgregor was right, and the attack had begun.

2) The Americans had told Iran to stand down, and take the strike. They expected Iran to do what they were told. This would be following the pattern just like at the end of the 12 day war last June.

But, 3) the Iranians responded that any strike would be considered a declaration of war against Iran. So Iran refused to stand down.

Iran apparently added that 4) all American and Israeli assets in the region would be targets of Iranian retaliation should there be any strikes on Iranian assets.

This tough stance on the part of Iran is what stopped the attack at those prophetic dates. The Israelis are thought to not have enough air defenses to withstand a full on Iranian missile strike. So the strike on Iran was called off, with rumors of more American assets being brought to the region.

What Next?

Maybe we should think of this as a stand off? Like 2 male buffalo about to have a fight, staring down each other, snorting at each other, scratching the ground with their hooves on a cold winter morning, steam rising from their nostrils. Which will blink first?

What fulfilled would then be the start of the war on the 24th. So with the closing of Israeli airspace. But with the west now rethinking what they want to do?

The American assets do not appear to be steaming home. It looks more like continued war planning and build up.

So this could still become a hot war at any time over the next 90 days. This 90 days is measured by the Iranian side, who is not the aggressor here.

So we look to the American side. Solomon's building project is going on now. Are we building towards war? Solomon's project ends after 13 days. This brings us up to the next date. This is the listed alternative date for the plague of the blood on the river. See below.

At this point we don't really need to guess what is going to happen. We can be patient and watch and wait. We will know in another week how this turns out.

If this is a short term delay, then we want to watch on or near 2026-02-06, the 13 days of Solomon's palace building project end there. Solomon bringing more arms to bear on his project is a reasonable match to what is going on now.

Last October 7 Hostage Returned

The link here is to an article on Haaretz. Most of the article is behind a paywall, which I would not normally link here. But, the headline and publication date is enough for our purposes. I am citing it just for the headline and date on the article, 2026-01-26, a Monday. This article is commentary for events across the previous weekend.

So basically on this same 2026-01-24 prophetic date, the body of the last hostage from October 7, 2023, was returned to Israel. As the article title suggests this brings to a close the series of events that began that day in 2023. Israel began clearing airspace the same date as this hostage return, so these seasons appear to be chaining together.

I see this as another shift in focus that goes with this prophetic day. We are now focused on Iran and the USA. So I generally see this as confirmation that we have moved into the time of the kings.

Watch Dates

The next prophetic date is the replay of the year when Solomon's Palace was finished. The date in question is 2026-02-06. This is the replay of the year 10000 AA, so this would be the last year in the millennium.

My own notes from December 2001, when this date went by in the past, includes the possibility that the Temple Dedication may have happened after the completion of BOTH the temple and palace. If so we may yet have more blood on the water at that date or at that weekend. See 1 Kings 8:2.

This date replays on the Friday AFTER this blog goes out. So it might be difficult to write it up in next week's blog.

This date is also listed on our regular calendar as the opening assembly at the start of Passover week. That annual holiday celebrates Passover the night before. The plague story ends with blood and water too, so that date would also be interesting for war with Iran. A headline might be matching the calendar story, which would also be a first example of such a match.

Withdrawal from ABM Treaty

The link here is to an archived government article where then President George Bush announced the USA would be exiting the ABM treaty in 6 months. His administration was lawful, unlike today. They were following a clause in that treaty that allowed for 6 months of notice.

History records the USA formally withdrew from that treaty 6 months later.

But that withdrawal announcement date was an earlier replay of 10000 AA which was going on at that time.

Note the START treaty expires on 2026-02-05, so the Thursday after this blog goes out. The first day without any active nuclear arms treaty begins the next day, on that 2026-02-06 prophetic date for Solomon's Palace being complete. Solomon can now try conquering the world.

Notice how these 2 nuclear arms treaties are tightly tied together prophetically.

Dropping both of these treaties is a setup for a future nuclear "blood on the water" like we may see with a replay of Noah's flood in 2029.

Shop Work

This week I have done a complete review of the status of all of the 3d exhibits.

Though there is much more work ahead, it is remarkable where we have come since August of 2023 when I first started looking at what is now the Table exhibit. At the time I knew nothing about how to do this work.

More on that progress review in next week's blog.

Headline Review

The following caught my attention this week.

Hormuz

The link here is to a post on X by Pepe Escobar. In this post he reviews estimates and possible consequences should Iran close the Straight of Hormuz in retaliation for an American strike on Iran. The Iranian parliament has approved the plan for such a closure.

The worst case consequences are the cost of a barrel of oil immediately going way up, western economies then collapse for lack of energy and the western banking system implodes over a stalled economy.

The short answer is that an attack on Iran may trigger victory through asymmetric warfare.

Fitts on Giving Up

Regular readers know I am a big fan of Catherine Austin Fitts. She is making the podcast rounds after taking a break for the holidays. The link here is to a podcast where she is the guest. This is on the Miles Franklin Media channel on Youtube.

This was Fitts' first time on that channel, so she modestly reviews some of her amazing biography at the front. Then she gets to the heart of why this video is getting widespread attention. She explains that the banks appear to be giving up on the USD as a reserve currency. This alone is already interesting. But then she explains recent legislative action in the US Congress dealing with making the USD into what would effectively become a digital currency, similar to bitcoin and related tokens.

Their goal is to figure out how to get dollar coins onto every phone on earth. The US Congress is working to setup the needed laws to give it a try. If it works, the USD would again reign supreme as the world's primary medium of exchange.

Near the end she is asked if she thinks this will ultimately work. She answers with a hesitant no.

As she explains, the US Congress is currently designing a vicious slave system, where currency can only be used at certain times, or in certain places, or any other conditions the bankers may impose. This all done by central control through code buried in the system. Bad enough to be de-banked like they did to Scott Ritter here recently. Now you can have your wallet snatched too. Well worth the time to watch.

Tesla Updates

The link here is to a Ryan Shaw video on Youtube with a summary of Tesla's quarterly earnings call. The big news is Tesla dropping the S and X models from their lineup.

These were very small volume cars, so no great loss. Lots of other changes across the company, with a focus on autonomy. Looks like Tesla has Elon's full business attention, a good thing to see.

More Ukrainian Recruits

This is a very sad post on X by Lord Bebo showing what has happened in Kiev since Russia turned off the power. The only residential heat is in portable tents.

So young men avoiding the draft must seek out heat in those tents. Those men are being conscripted as they appear. They are dead men.

Trouble near Xi in China?

The link here is to another Lord Bebo post on X dealing with a corruption investigation involving a Chinese general with close ties to Chinese President Xi.

This may just be normal corruption, but there is widespread speculation this man was some sort of foreign agent. If so, perhaps Xi has stopped a Zionist plan for an internal takeover of the Chinese government. This is dated at 2026-01-25, so very close to the prophetic date. This headline is worth an honorable mention as a prophetic headline for this date.

Trouble With Western Media

Almost all reported news out of Iran appears to be fake. The Zionists control the media narrative, mostly world wide. So they can tell whatever story they want about events inside Iran and nobody knows any better.

Scott Ritter weighed in on this problem in one of his podcast appearances this past week. I believe it was on Judge Nap, but no link. Ritter commented that western media claims more recent deaths in Iran than American deaths during the Battle of the Bulge in World War II.

Ritter could not remember the actual American death toll under that German surprise attack. Wikipedia reports 8407 Americans died in that month long battle. Iran hasn't had the time to throw their whole military at their own people, which is what it would take to reach the supposed 80,000 dead Iranians reported in Zionist controlled western media.

Trolling Minnesota

The link here is to a Professor Mirandi post on X. He is a level headed voice from Iran who is well known in the west because he speaks fluent English. I am a fan of his, though his podcast appearances can be safely played back at 1.25 speed. In any case, he makes regular appearances on the key podcasts.

Mirandi finally had enough with Zionist English language media in the west playing mind games with the US public. So Mirandi started trolling.

In this post he makes the hilarious point that the US government has killed 80,000 in the Minnesota riots. Mirandi is just transferring the false number of deaths by the hands of the Iranian government in recent protests to Trump in Minnesota. Very clever.

Copy Cats

Once Mirandi could do it, anyone could do it. The link here is another example of a hilarious troll post on X. Note, in the comments that follow, only about 1/2 get the joke, or get the fundamental problem of untrustworthy Zionist media.

UpScrolled

The link here is to a new social media platform called Up Scrolled. It has received attention as the preferred alternative to TikTok, now that Zionists control that platform. There were many sign ups last week as word of Up Scrolled spread.

Those new users overloaded their servers. Their systems appear to be running again OK this week. Their servers are in Ireland and their incorporation is in Australia.

The front page on that website has a list of their current platform promises. If they can keep those promises, it beats both TikTok and X by a mile. You'll need to download their app from an app store for your phone. No web interface as far as I can tell. So not useful for citations. So for now it is only a toy.

This project was built by a Palestinian from Gaza. He now lives in Australia as a refugee. He is said to have lost 60 family members in the Gaza genocide. So signing up is a good way to protest what has happened in Gaza.

I am signed up. @PaleoPhil if you want to try and reach me there. At this point I am just playing around. Readers here should recognize my art. If it looks promising, I could add this as a possible social contact off the front of Paleo.In. Let me know what you think.

More Later,

Phil

The Commandments

Phil Stone — Fri, 23 Jan 2026 20:40:56 GMT

This blog deals with the 10 commandments as seen on the Shepherd's staff exhibit. Before that some notes on the divine names work. Then shop notes, a review of ongoing match dates and watch dates, finally a headline review.

Divine Names

Ryan continues to rework the markup that handles divine names in the BRB, TT and related scripture apps. In particular he is changing his internal markup so his markup itself can be easily used to track what Hebrew sources and target substitutions being used. This is a clever improvement in his work flow and a major quality improvement going forward.

Because so many of the existing references to divine names in the TT were done before this study was worked out, Ryan decided to zero out all previous divine name substitutions. He did this to force a sanity check of all divine name references across the entire manuscript.

Ryan is now going back across all divine name references and rechecking the work based on recent lessons dealing with divine names.

This reset fixes many accidental substitutions that showed up in the TT with recent divine name work. It is a tedious process that has been going on for a couple weeks. This is why there was no update of the apps last week. Ryan is also holding off a public release this week. He currently expects to return to his weekly scripture apps release cycle starting next week.

The Staff

Last week I showed pics on Telegram of the first 3d print of the shepherd's staff. This triggered a few design iterations and quite a bit of discussion, both of the staff itself and of the commandments that are written along the side of the staff.

These discussions were interesting enough that I wanted to do a blog on this subject, just for the record and so everyone reading the blog can see just how strange the commandments may be. Let me start with the text of the commandments themselves. Then work through references to them spread across the rest of the manuscript.

The Commandments

The link here is to Exodus 20 in the BRB. The filter tags need to be turned on in the options menus so you can see the text that was added to the commandments, likely by Ezra. The first 17 verses of that chapter cover the commandments themselves.

If you scroll down and survey the list of commandments you will see that the individual inspired commandments are usually just a couple of words. The commandments at the top, though, have many added words.

This difference in sentence length between the top and bottom of this text is what originally suggested to us that all the commandments were originally just short statements.

We set out to prove that idea when we first worked out the audit pattern. We wondered at the time if the audit would show all the commandments to be short. That is indeed what we found.

In terms of word substitutions, the divine name, Master in Aramaic, needed to be replaced with Joshua for the entire set of commandments to pass audit.

Remember that all letters are drawn on a grid. All letters are either 3 grid lines or 5 grid lines wide. There is also a kerning pattern so the letter pacing is irregular. In the end the commandments exactly fill 360 grid lines. This is the same number of grid lines as there are days in a common calendar year. It suggests this is the line width for eventual pages.

Daunting

The first lesson from this work was to see the amount of added text. As a percentage, the amount of inspired text is less than half of the given text in that passage. Worse, the inspired words are sprinkled within, so the general story of the inspired commandments are only loosely related to the story passed to us by history in that chapter.

The story that comes out of this audit/recovery work shows that the inspired form is effectively hidden inside a longer story. Most of the time we spent doing that recovery was not technical in terms of working the audit pattern. That was easy. We grappled with was what might the inspired core actually be? We did not expect such a minimal answer.

We were coping with the crime scene and getting so we could be comfortable with the answer that was appearing before our eyes.

The problem for widespread recovery work is that if this same level of editing was going on across the rest of the Bible, the inspired story may be very, very hard to reliably recover.

This is in part why I have not been quick to look at code to do widespread audit work. At first glance, this does not look like something software can reliably tackle on its own.

Less Daunting Now

I don't look at this problem the same way. Having the staff in hand has seriously changed my understanding of this problem.

The main change happened about a year ago when we increased the size of the Table of 400 to have 625 cells. In that uplift the Psalms and Proverbs were brought back into the field of play. Those books appear to have been written by Moses and they were written with the purpose of teaching the language.

The contents of those books are mostly short sentences. This is because they are addressed to young readers. They are not going to have complex grammar. They are grammatically very similar to the commandments. They are mostly short sentences or short couplets. Editors who may have tampered these books would have done so by adding couplets.

In my own recent surveys of that Psalm and Proverbs content it is also obvious they are also not high value targets for the editors.

When Psalms and Proverbs was edited, they were usually edited by adding stanzas, not by changing sentences. This in part because of that couplet structure found in their writing.

So what would we expect to see if we ran an audit on the verses of those books? For inspired passages, nearly every word will pass. For uninspired passages not much should pass.

So unlike the Commandments, it should not take a long theological discussion to decide what the inspired stories might be. This gives serious hope that we know where to start with recovery related software.

It means we now have a place to test kerning, correct word spelling and can start to build up a lexicon of known inspired words.

Beware Editors

The next topic of conversation around the new Staff exhibit is a reminder of just how different the short forms of the commandments are from the given forms in Exodus 20.

Remember, the editors changed the text when their understanding of the text was a threat to themselves or to their power in the kingdom.

So the edits inside the commandments are NOT going to be simple commentary, even if those additions look like commentary. So take the first sentence, "I am Joshua God" is the inspired form. The given form includes a change in divine name and an uninspired tail, "who brought you out of Egypt, out of the house of Servitude."

The divine name is a discussion from previous blogs. Not much to add, only that Hebrew uses Yahweh, but the audit shows this is the same name as Joshua that we read about in the New Testament.

But the tail on this first sentence is interesting. Why would an editor add that tail? What was their literary purpose?

Was it just commentary? Being brought out of Egypt is a truth statement about something that happened in history. So it is not false. But why did they want to add this specific detail? What was their nefarious purpose?

That addition, that god brought the people out of Egypt, is localizing the scope of the god mentioned in the commandments themselves. It is bringing him down. Without that detail, the inspired form, "I am Joshua god," is more of a universal absolute. Joshua is god over EVERYTHING, not just coming out of Egypt. This is what is implied by the inspired form. This was not something the editors liked. They made the god of the commandments the god who ONLY brought them out of Egypt.

The commandment, "You will not make any image," also has added detail. The editor adds "of anything in the skies, land or water." This is another example were the editor is adding what may be a simple truth statement, but the commandment is probably more broad. Perhaps a better English word for image may be "Imagination." In other words don't go dreaming up stories about Joshua himself. Of course this is exactly what the editors did, and why they wanted to change the commandment.

The commandment, "Don't bow and serve," has been similarly changed. As passed by history it has been changed to apply to the images or idols from the previous commandment. As originally written it applies broadly. Do not bow and serve PEOPLE. Like kings and lords and lenders. The commandment applies against the very group who were doing the edits.

The commandment, "Do not swear," has been edited in a similar way. As passed by history it only applies to god. In the inspired form it most likely means something like swear to anyone about anything. The normal use would be like a military oath or oath for other government service. Government officials even now often have swearing in ceremonies. Those ceremonies are what are outlawed by this commandment. So this commandment thus outlaws the related chains of authority that we know of in modern governments. The commandment as inspired prevents authority to anyone other than Joshua.

The commandment, "Remember the Sabbath," has been similarly elaborated with details for what cannot be done on the weekly Sabbath. This of course removes the Tabernacles holiday, which is also a Sabbath, and it removes the 7 year and 50 year releases from debt that are also under the rules of Sabbath. You can see the editors never wanted to release their slaves.

The commandment, "Honor father and mother," has also been similarly constrained. The father and mother that really matter is Adam and Eve. Their mistake was to listen to lies of evil men. This commandment would thus also mean NEVER trust what someone says about what god said. Always check it yourself. Again, this commandment hints at the means for avoiding traps caused by the editors.

The commandment, "Don't testify the false testimony," is also deliberately tampered. Note there is a definitive article on the word testimony. This is not the abstract idea of a testimony but an actual thing, the main inspired document. In the inspired form of the commandments, this commandment means to never evangelize the edited text, only the inspired text. The editors, of course, could not have that in their version, so they limit it to something like testimony in court before a judge or king.

The final commandment, "Don't covet," has been similarly upset. It has been edited to apply socially. It likely means to not keep the testimony to yourself. Share it, evangelize it, like Paul did in the New Testament.

Word Definitions

Once you see the commandments in their short form you notice that much of the meaning of the commandments is now riding on individual words. Normally, translators choose English based on the meaning of whole sentences. So the meaning of the words in the commandments is in part driven by the nearby words. The short form of the commandments looses nearby words, so it looses assumed word meanings.

Proper word definitions for the now short sentences in the commandments must now ultimately come from the lexicon. So the English we know so far may not be the best English in the end. The rest of the manuscript needs to be recovered before we can fine tune these words. For example, "Don't kill" might really mean "Don't die" which is of course central to the overall message of the Testimony. This sort of word meaning nuance is a future study.

Centrality

Once you get your head around the meanings of the sentences on the staff you can see how important both the language and the staff become. It is how Joshua wants to shepherd his people. The commandments are a major summary of the rest of the text.

The commandments are so central, that they are referenced in other places and in some other ways. To understand them requires a survey of where they are used in other stories. We begin this survey with the main New Testament reference to the commandments.

The Rich Young Man

Our understanding of the New Testament continues to change. Readers of the New Testament must factor in how people in that day did NOT have access to the inspired Testimony. The text models the evangelistic process of introducing the text to someone who does not know the inspired form.

An example story where this matters is the story of the Rich Young Man, found in Matthew 19 starting at verse 16, linked above in the BRB.

In this story a young man comes to Joshua and asks Joshua what he must do to have everlasting life. Joshua's answer is very simple, obey the commandments.

That young man is going to know the edited commandments, while Joshua knows the real thing. Joshua is linking the inspired commandments to everlasting life. Nothing in the edited commandments does this, the unedited commandments allow for this application, as I described above.

This New Testament passage is adding important commentary on the purpose of the inspired commandments, which is to provide the path to everlasting life.

The last verse in this passage indicates this happens via inheritance, which is a very strange verb to use for everlasting life. We receive everlasting life from, or because of, the work of our ancestors. This framing of the problem is already related to honoring father and mother which is a part of the commandments themselves.

The young man answers Joshua with a question. Which ones?

Presumably this is asking which commandments does the young man need to work on. That young man will see them as the edited personal and moral commandments.

Joshua's answer is, Don't kill, Don't commit adultery, Don't steal, Don't testify a false testimony, Honor father and mother.

The young man answers that he has kept those commandments since his boyhood.

The young man should not be so sure, because they may not mean what he thinks. As readers who know the inspired commandments, we know he most certainly did not have the true testimony since his boyhood. So he could not have testified it to others. In any case, Joshua then answers, go sell everything, give to the poor, and then come follow Joshua. The whole system the man is involved in needs to be shed before the man is ready to even begin the path to everlasting life.

The process Joshua is laying out, especially giving the wealth away, is described as having created treasure in the sky. In the Book of Tobit this is called Alms giving, so it is not obvious to Protestants why giving away ill gotten wealth is so powerful. Joshua is explaining a cleansing process for how to walk out of the problem this man finds himself within.

Implicit Problems

The implicit problem for this young man is that he inherited his wealth. Young men do not have enough time in life to become wealthy. Actual young men, in our era, who do earn wealth while young, usually end up squandering it soon after it is earned. Think modern sports figures and so on. They usually think they will just keep earning more. So the implicit implication of this story is that wealth was earned by parents who were breaking the commandments. Getting rid of that wealth would thus free the man from the moral guilt of having earned that money.

By this view, the list of commandments that Joshua is listing are the ones that were broken in order to create the wealth that man now has. He can only clear this ill-gotten wealth by giving it away. Of course giving away that wealth converts to a treasure in the skies, which is more useful in any case.

So far, this does not explain how the commandments tie to everlasting life. Are the commandments just a block to reaching everlasting life? Or are the commandments a detailed path to everlasting life?

Is everlasting life earned by moral behavior? If so, at least some famous church saints would have become walk offs and not died. This cannot be what is going on. The commandments must be a path to life.

Commandments to Life

So think again about the commandments. "I am Joshua God. Have no other gods besides me."

This is not a moral statement, but a truth statement about Joshua himself and the competition Joshua faces from all manner of places that purport to be like god. The editors and their work appear to be the embodiment of this. The edited text appears to be the classroom for learning about breaking the commandments.

So are all the commandments this way? Do they explain ways that the path to everlasting life can be messed up? Carrying around false texts certainly blocks the path to ever lasting life. Maybe other things also block that path?

In the case of the young man he is told "don't kill, don't commit adultery, don't steal, don't testify a false testimony, honor father and mother."

So the false testimony is on this list. What about the others?

Don't kill? If you had the chance to bring the testimony forward generationally, and do not take it, then future generations cannot reach everlasting life in their own lifetime, so someone will die. You killed.

Don't commit adultery? Is the true testimony something like a marriage contract? Between all of us and Joshua? Looks like, yes. Breaking that contract is adultery.

Don't steal? Bringing false religious texts into the testimony, so into your house, is like stealing. Taking something that does not belong.

Honor father and mother? Remembering Adam and Eve, and the mess they made, and working to correct it by NOT listening to the serpent is also a fundamental story about the testimony.

Then the young man is finally told to come follow Joshua. So once he has done the rest, to eventually become an evangelist. So he is called to share the testimony with others. This is to obey the last commandment to not covet.

There may be some manuscript related structural reason why much of Paul's evangelist work is the last recorded history in the testimony. Paul is also from the tribe of Benjamin which also goes with the commandment "Don't Covet."

Uses Of The Staff

Having a staff around in the shop is causing a lot of thinking about references to staffs in the text. This because all references to staffs are likely also references to the commandments. The 2 seem to be tied together. Let me survey references to the word staff as found in the text. These would imply a reference to the commandments themselves.

The first reference to a staff in the text is in Genesis 32:10 where Jacob explains he left his family, crossing the Jordan, with only his staff, and he returned as 2 groups. The staff is tied to his explanation of the source of his prosperity. As readers we are supposed to know this is because he was keeping covenant with Joshua. The commandments mark a shorthand summary form.

The next important reference to staff is in Exodus 4 where Moses is told to take his staff in order to deliver the people from Egypt. Moses' staff will fight against those of the Egyptians. With his staff, Moses will do signs. The Egyptians are not going to understand, but it is a sign of the testimony, and authority of Joshua. Throughout the plagues Moses raises the staff in his hand to trigger the plagues.

Note there are 12 plagues and 12 sentences on the staff. So there is a sentence on the staff for each plague. The staff is also lifted above the sea when they leave Egypt.

The symbolic meaning is now becoming clear. The staff carries the commandments which are a short hand for the agreement between Joshua and his people.

Young David is also seen carrying a staff, See 1 Samuel 17:40, where David takes his staff, along with 5 stones, in order to go fight Goliath. This is also a covenant related parable dealing with the commandments. David was walking with Joshua. He was the last king to do so, which is why Acts 15 calls out David's fallen tent.

A staff is used by Elisha in 2 Kings 4:29-31 where it is involved in the raising of a dead boy. This is perhaps a parable for raising the text. The commandments seem to go first, which is certainly how it has gone for us.

In the New Testament the disciples are told to only take the staff with them when they are on mission trips. See Mark 6:8. This is contradicted in Luke 9:3 where no staff is to be taken. Because Moses is the example, the Luke 9:3 passage is likely edited. Taking a staff is likely inspired.

Finally, Hebrews 11:21 comes full circle and mentions Jacob and his staff when blessing his sons. The 12 sentences on the staff map to the 12 tribes which map to Jacob's sons. We normally read this passage as old and weak Jacob needs his staff for mechanical support. Once you know it has the commandments, this passage means he relied on the commandments for his life and for raising his sons.

On Stone

The same 12 commandments as on the staff also appear on stone. There are 2 places that are interesting to consider. The first is the commandments that Moses brings down from the mountain. The second is the stone that strike's Nebuchadnezzar's statue. Let me mention each of those here.

Up The Mountain

The link here is to Exodus 24:12 in the BRB. This is the paragraph where Moses is called up the mountain to receive the tablets of stone. These include the commandments. The text itself is ambiguous, so this may include some other writing.

In any case, Moses famously comes down from the mountain with 2 tablets of stone that contain the commandments. These become the foundation artifact for the whole tent of time that Moses will proceed to construct. Unlike the wood (or plastic) of a staff, stones are permanent and enduring.

The other artifacts in the Tent of Time were made of wood and other materials that across centuries would need to be rebuilt, refurbished, or replaced. These stones were different. They would exist across centuries, provided the tent of time itself endured.

These stones thus became the central artifact from Moses' era that could be seen and touched by many future generations.

These actual stones from Moses' era do not appear to have survived the time of the editors. Should a modern archaeologist ever dig up Moses' original stones, they would not want to show them off because they would reveal the crime committed by the editors.

From the River

Once you see the commandments as written on stones, then other stone references may also be commandments references. The 12 stones picked out of the Jordan in Joshua 4:3-8 may have been selected for individual engraving of the 12 sentences from the commandments.

Against the Statue

There is also a reference to a stone that strikes a statue in Daniel 2:34-35. This is an end-times reference and suggests the commandments return. An implicit understanding is that if that stone is a commandments stone, then the real commandments had been lost, but will be recovered again. That stone grows up and fills the world, suggesting the works of the editors is eventually supplanted by the real thing.

More Staffs

I have made a few design changes from that first staff shown on Telegram last week. The biggest change is to hide English on the back of the staff. This allows anyone holding the staff to read off the commandments just by rotating the staff around. This is a very helpful change.

I have also done a couple prints in the normal brown/beige color scheme that I am settling on for the other exhibits. Conceptually, this is a darker bark-like outside of the staff with a lighter interior, just like normal wood. This color scheme makes the black lettering on the staff easier to see against a brown grid. This is instead of the black lettering on a fine gray grid as seen on the first prints.

There is still some fiddling to do with the ends of the staff. To protect modern floors they need ends printed in TPU plastic. That 3d printing plastic produces a rubber like final part. At the same time, the new ends may get a slightly more decorative trim.

The staff is scaled to the 6 foot dowel which was the longest I could find at the hardware store. This leaves a letter grid at 2/10ths of an inch and a letter size at almost exactly 8/10ths of an inch. These are the smallest paleo letters that I have 3d printed. These small sizes leave some filament hair that is hard to remove, even with a heat gun.

The resulting parts from this design may be better quality if they were printed with a smaller diameter nozzle. Because of the size of the overall exhibit, this really wants a dual extruder setup so the bulk of the staff gets printed with a larger diameter while the lettering gets printed with a small diameter nozzle. This is a fabrication point that needs more study at some point in the future. An INDX equipped printer, or a Prusa XL could do this sort of fabrication.

Match Dates

We were watching 2026-01-18 as the day-for-a-year replay of the first year of Solomon's sole rule over his kingdom. This would also be the start of his work on his temple.

The main headline event seems to have been the opening of the 2025 WEF conference in Davos Switzerland. All the cool kids were there giving each other speeches.

The opening date of that conference was the following day, Monday. Often weekends push fulfillment onto the nearby week days, as appears to have happened here.

But, we also had an interesting headline from Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Not a whole new building, but a serious change there. Let me review the headlines.

Alex Christoforou #1944

The link here is to Alex Christoforou's daily news summary on Youtube. This for Monday, the 19th. He discusses the opening of the WEF, but also of note is the ongoing Greenland discussions and Trump's plans for Gaza. Looks like Israel and the USA are planning something that is almost an alternative to the United Nations, with perhaps 70 nations involved in a "board of peace."

Others have suggested Gaza is but a part of the purpose, Ukraine could be involved too. It can also be thought of as the Zionists taking control away from the United Nations, where actions can be stopped by veto, but not dictated by pharaoh.

Alkhorshid with Helmer

The link here is to the weekly discussion between Nima Alkhorshid and John Helmer. This video is dated January 20, 2026. Helmer seems to have a better grasp of Greenland than most other commentators on alternative media. He views Greenland as an extension of the Ukraine battle field. Control of Greenland effectively cuts off the arctic trade routes that Russia and China have been developing.

They also have some discussion about the Iran situation. Helmer gives some evidence that Russia is internally inconsistent about if Russia is on Israel's side or on Iran's side when it comes to the middle east. There is Jewish wealth and control in Russia that may prevent Russia from ultimately helping Iran. I see this internal Zionist influence as the lever the Zionists want to use to ultimately bring down Russia's government.

Change In Temple Mount Policy

The link here is to a Youtube video on the Israel Guys channel. It is dated 2026-01-21. It details a serious change made in police policy dealing with public access to Temple Mount. This video is about 8 minutes long. It details what turns out to be our expected prophetic match to the building of Solomon's temple.

In terms of matches to the expected prophetic story, this headline is mild. There is currently no obvious building project, though stuff may be going on underground that we cannot see. But, what did happen is a dramatic change in Israeli police policy to allow Jews and Christians to have freer access to the top of Temple Mount. As explained in the video this is being taken as a serious step towards a rebuilt temple as well as the slow decline of Muslim influence at that location.

Details of the changes include allowing the use of police authorized prayer sheets on the mount. As explained in detail, the Israeli government is now sanctioning at least some visit and prayer related activity that was previously illegal. As the host explains, this does appear to be a serious step towards the rebuilding of the temple.

Watch Dates

We are now currently watching 2026-01-24 for the replay of the sacrifices related to Solomon's temple dedication. This is the Saturday after this blog goes out.

Over the past year or so I have looked at this date as a theoretical date for something related to the Temple in Jerusalem. The video linked above dealing with the change in Temple Mount access is likely the fulfillment headline for this aspect of the story. But, we are in a prophetic window and there may yet be more headlines on this topic.

At the moment I am looking to Iran as a possible venue for more headlines. The USS Abraham Lincoln is expected to arrive in the region on the 23rd.

The 2026-01-24 date is 1 day after the close of the WEF conferences in Davos. Those Davos meetings should be thought of as Solomon's religious gathering at his temple. Most of the important visitors in Davos are Zionists or work for Zionists.

This 2026-01-24 date is also called out as possibly informed by the "blood on the river" story at the start of the plagues on Egypt. If this does see some sort of related fulfillment, then we have a first peek at what may ultimately be a complete run of the plagues along with the time of the replay of the Jerusalem kings. We have already seen some of the "blood on the water" style headlines with American piracy against tankers not insured by London.

The following date, so 2026-01-25, is the replay of the start of the construction of Solomon's Palace. His palace took longer, 13 years, than did the temple, at 7 years. Political gatherings across these 13 days would tend to be dealing with government rule and not religion. Perhaps Trump's new peace council for Gaza? Perhaps a 13 day war? We'll see.

Peaking Ahead

The pair of Solomon building projects end on 2026-02-06. Unclear if these projects would be expected to have prophetic replay through the day-for-a-year ratios, since real building projects take more time. This early February date is listed as the Opening Assembly date for this year's Unleavened Bread Holiday.

Also important to note, the START treaty that limits nuclear weapons, expires on February 5, 2026. The Russian's have proposed a 1 year extension but the Americans appear to want nuclear war. Nobody appears home on the American side. If the American side does not answer Russia, a nuclear arms race begins on February 6, 2026.

For another future reference, the last year of Solomon's reign replays on 2026-02-22. That story marks the start of the replay of the civil war that followed Solomon's reign.

Shop Work

We did some traveling this week, so shop time was limited. On the road we had a long set of lots and technical discussions about our current work. An outstanding and serious file format problem related to audit work seems to have been solved on the drive. The solution to that problem came in a series of prophetic flashes. I now know what to do for setting up the audit related manuscript files.

We also had a long discussion with our friends dealing with the current state of our work. We showed off the new staff, especially a 2 tone brown version. Watch for pics on telegram for that.

I am currently winding down the 3d printing that is going on in the shop. This because we have Unleavened Bread week coming up and I won't be free for 3d work across that time.

My intention is to shift to code work for what will probably be several more weeks. I need to push the audit code, now that I know what to do.

Greek Manuscript

I also have some lingering Greek language manuscript work to finish up on. This is interesting to me because the files I am currently working on have a well designed modern Greek Lexicon. Though we are not expecting much Greek work for recovery, the database design for that lexicon is something that could be easily adapted for Paleo.

The Strong's Number system, which is commonly used for Hebrew OT and Greek NT manuscripts, was developed in the late 1800s. This was long before there was a good theoretical model for database designs. So systems that are built like or which follow Strong's style numbers do not form a decent database.

Because of what looks like poor original design, users of Strongs based concordances miss some important word connections. I have been bothered by this problem for years. I can now see how to solve this problem in a reasonable way, even for Paleo.

Ready For Recovery

So the pieces needed for the recovery work are now falling into place. We have the rules for divine name substitutions, we have both the lexicon structure and audit related file formats. We have a sense of the work flow and how the results of this process should be presented. We know we need to start in the Psalms and Proverbs, where we can build up known good vocabulary words, word forms, and grammar. So we are finally ready again to look at solving the audit problem.

Other Items

Other work that got finished in the shop this week was the rest of the assembly of the Ladder exhibit as well as another iteration and print of the Staff exhibit. English lettering on the bottom of the staff was cleaned up and the staff was printed in the brown and beige color scheme used for many of the other exhibits. I also woke one morning this week with a flash for how to design the decorative ends for the staff. Those new ends were also printed this week.

Finally, the Pavement exhibit was also adjusted so it does not need any spare parts in order to be assembled into a single large unit.

Curiously, I noted the screws used in that exhibit seem to be relaxing some with time. Screws used in all the big panel exhibits may eventually need to be assembled with thread locker.

Headline Review

The following headlines caught my eye this week.

The Plan to Kill Humanity

The link here is to a Neutrality Studies video on Youtube. In this video the channel host, Pascal Lottaz has a pair of American professors describing the current situation with the risk of nuclear war.

This talk was triggered by the attempt to take out Putin at his official residence on December 29, 2025, which is also thought to house a nuclear weapons national control bunker.

Pascal's guests will use the term "starvation" while the text uses the term "famine." This video is 57 minutes long. It provides a good review of the known technical capabilities and risks of the current weapons stockpiles of the USA and Russia. The Russian side is sane, and has offered to extend the current START treaty.

But, as they explain, the western side is not willing to continue the treaty. I would suggest the west is run by a death cult, and this is but 1 example.

I have linked this video as a graphic reminder of what it means that the START nuclear test ban treaty expires February 5, 2026. We will see if there are other, more serious headlines. Breaking this treaty may signify the split of the ancient kingdom.

Kirk Acoustics

The link here is to the top of a long thread on X that explains an acoustic analysis of the shot that killed Charlie Kirk. Sound files from various cell phones were triangulated to the shooter's location at the venue. The shot seems to have originated near the front row, though look at the map for details. This appears to be the same place in the crowd as identified by Jeff Rense.

Banning 3d Printers

Yes, Really, Banning 3d Printers

The 2 videos linked here deal with proposed legislation in the state of Washington that is aimed at banning the use of existing 3d printers in the state after July, 1, 2027.

Under the new law, the state itself gets to decide what 3d parts can be printed. To enforce this new goal, the new law requires all 3d printing related equipment to be tied via software to state run servers which know what parts are authorized for 3d printing within the state. Only 3d print farms that are federally licensed weapons manufacturers will be exempt.

The first video is by a lawyer who goes over the proposed law. It is written with the intent to ban the home manufacture of gun parts, but the bill has serious secondary consequences. The second video is referenced in the first, and gives better technical and more general theoretical background.

Since these videos went up, there has been a flood of additional videos on Youtube on this topic. This may be a state level trial for a national ban on 3d printing. (Which would move even more business out of the USA.)

It looks like our equipment, so our prototype work, may become illegal in Washington State after that date.

Using a gun law to ban the practice of religion is a remarkable trick. This basically sets an absolute last date for our project to continue in Washington State. Joshua willing, we will be moved out by then.

More Later,

Iran Review

Phil Stone — Fri, 16 Jan 2026 22:49:51 GMT

This blog reviews the various prophetic stories for modern Iran. Then on to prophetic dates, shop work and a headline review. The new exhibit this week is the Staff.

Waiting on Attack on Iran

Since Netanyahu visited Trump in Florida at New Years, the USA has been preparing for a strike on Iran. The nature of the USA as Israel's vassal could not be more clear. Netanyahu showed up at Trump's Florida brothel, and the war plans were set in place, both in Venezuela and Iran.

As this blog goes out, that attack has not yet come. It may start on one of the near term prophetic dates. But, I would expect the plague date at January 24, 2026, to be key. More on dates below.

Iran is perhaps the most important neighboring country to modern Israel. This because it is found in the biblical texts that deal with the formation of modern Israel. In the text, modern Iran is known as the Medes and Persians.

The Medes were located in what is now western Iran, and the Persians in what is now eastern Iran. The 2 ancient biblical nations of the Medes and Persians formed 1 modern nation state. The Medes themselves are thought to have migrated east into what is now western Iran. So Biblical places like ancient Nineveh are perhaps also related. This may also thus tie in stories like Jonah and Tobit. Jonah brought to faith the kingdom which was able to conquer ancient Israel. Tobit establishes a branch of the lost tribe of Naphtali in that same region. Both Tobit and Jonah would thus ascribe some level of faith and favor on modern Iran. Modern Iranians would still consider Jesus to be at least a prophet, which is unlike modern Israel.

What I just spelled out is not just ancient history. One of our favorite podcasters, Nima Alkhorshid, recently returned from Brazil to Iran. Though he was in Tehran for maybe 10 days, he is now in "western Iran." By this he means the territory of the Medes. Stated biblically, he briefly visited Persia, but is now in Media.

Timeline Theory

The link here is to a section on the Bible Time website. This section establishes the day-accurate relationship between the AA calendar of the Bible and the modern Gregorian calendar. There are 5 articles in that section, with a total word count of over 14,000 words. Anyone that wants the specific details, including all the scripture cites, and alternative cases can read through those articles.

The conceptual process involves looking forward from the chronology of the Bible at the expected ancient year numbers for when modern Israel would again become a nation state.

The basic math involves the fall of Jerusalem to the Babylonians, which has a known year. Then the 2550 year offset expected from Leviticus 26, which suggests the time between the ancient fall of that city and the formation of modern Israel.

This process also involves the various waves of captives taken from Jerusalem after the fall of the city itself. The years these captives were taken become the wars involving modern Israel in 1956, 1967 and 1974. So this is not just a single alignment but the aligning of 4 formation wars for modern Israel. Then there is a process to narrow the problem down to day-accurately align the various calendars. This is how we get day accuracy between, say, Noah's flood, and our modern era.

What matters to that process is that the textual stories about how Babylon conquered Jerusalem become the stories for the return of the Jews to Jerusalem in our day.

An Alternative View

When I wrote that set of articles, starting over 25 years ago, I saw the 2550 years as a gap. This is how Leviticus 26 should normally be understood. But, this is perhaps a crude, or beginners, way to think about what was really going on.

Another way to frame the same timeline stories is to see history repeating again on a 2550 year cycle. I have not yet done the full math study on this, having a recovered text is more important. But, I have done a lot of thinking about it.

This 2550 year cycle view of history is the heart of the crown object. So this advanced view is part of my ongoing exhibit work. My current well educated hunch is that 10 such cycles form the core of all of human history. This is the same number of years as days in the life of a king. With perhaps a gestation period ahead of those years, the time in Eden.

When we think of history as repeating again every 2550 years, then we can think differently about the Babylonian invasion of Jerusalem. It repeated again in 1948, no problem. But this was the culmination of 430 years of other, earlier, history.

The math is the same as in those original Bible Time articles. But the implications are much, much more robust. In this view we can look much farther back than 1948 and explain, say, the previous 430 modern years as having been a replay of the history of the Jerusalem kings. We would know this as the history of the colonial era. We would see it as the Jebusites taking control over all the lost tribes.

Looking forward from 1948, we would expect the rest of the events in the inspired Old Testament to also replay on that same 2550 year offset or cycle.

After the fall of Jerusalem to Babylon, there are only about 90 such years in the textual record. So (1948 + 90 =) 2038 is when this prophetic season generally comes to a close, and relative peace should return to the entire world.

Ezra's Commissioning

So what remains between now and 2038?

The main event is the commissioning of Ezra.

Who commissioned Ezra?

Ultimately a king from what is now modern Iran.

The link above is to Ezra 7 in the BRB for those who want to read more. The key detail is Ezra's commissioning comes from Arthasastha the king of Persia. So the king at modern Tehran.

Ezra, is NOT of the same religion as Babylon who took over Jerusalem. So the religion of Babylon at modern Jerusalem is replaced by the religion of Iran sometime before 2038.

Iran may well be damaged by a war from the west. But Iran will be the agent of change against the system setup in 1948 in Israel.

Daniel (BRB)

The book of Daniel covers much of this same ground. It is set in the historical context of Daniel being hauled away to Babylon at the time of the Babylonian invasion of Jerusalem. Chapter 1 gives Daniel's biography.

By Chapter 2 we get into the prophetic stories of that book. The king has a dream. He wants someone to interpret the dream, but he also wants someone to give his dream in order to prove the interpretation.

No explicit timing is given in his first episode. But, the reference to "hour" in Daniel 2:24 is a veiled reference to 7 which is found in the later stories in this book. This story of Nebuchadnezzar's dream is setting context for the rest of the book. This is an end times book dealing with events "7 times" future. So at the end of a "7 times" or 2550 year cycle as per Leviticus 26.

This second chapter of Daniel is explaining that the world will be governed by a series of kingdoms where each is very much in the style of Babylon. Babylon is the place name from which we get the term "Bible." At the end of 7 times, so in our modern era, that Bible system will be replaced. It starts with a stone that grows into a mountain.

What stone?

At least a recovered letter perfect commandments stone, maybe more. It eventually defeats Babel, or Bible.

Nebuchadnezzar's Tree

Skipping down in Daniel, chapter 4 deals with a dream of a tree. The tree is cut down, remains a stump for 7 times, so 2550 years, and then grows back. Again, another prophetic story dealing with the loss of inspired text, but the eventual recovery about 2550 years in the future. The entire tree, with branches, is likely a picture of the trunk inspired text of the Bible as well as the additional volumes, the branches that grow out of the trunk.

Nebuchadnezzar, by changing letter forms, broke any chance of easily finding such texts.

Writing On The Wall

Daniel 5 is also on this topic. The story of the handwriting on the wall indicates that the sons of Nebuchadnezzar could not read inspired Paleo letter forms. This meant they could not stand against an invading army, ultimately from Iran.

The Babylonian empire is taken over by Darius the Mede. (See Daniel 5:31.) We know this as western Iran. This is where we start to see the defeat of the invaders of Jerusalem. Babel is defeated by an army from western Iran.

This is where the prophetic story of Daniel is now getting precise on what happens AFTER 2550 years from Nebuchadnezzar's day. The reason is because the Babylonians (of Jerusalem) cannot read inspired writing, so the Persians will take over.

There are additional references to Persia deeper inside the book of Daniel. Likely an editor comes along later and messes up the prophetic details of Persia's victory.

Especially chapter 11 appears to be an addition where someone wrote in a later fall of Persia. This chapter also ties Persia to Greece, which is not a currently significant player on the world stage. The tie to Greece is in part why this is not likely an inspired story.

So I am putting nuance on the story from Daniel. I am also putting nuance on the history of Ezra's commissioning. Taken together, they both suggest we are still looking ultimately for some level of Iranian victory over the political system of modern Israel which was setup around 1948.

Modern Iran History

The link here is to the Wikipedia article on the history of modern Iran. This was never a part of the world covered when I was in school. Modern Iran has a long and troubled history. Just as Europeans were seemingly endlessly fighting with each other, so were the regions in and around Iran.

The modern era of Iran is considered to have begun around 1500. Iran's territory stretched further north than it does now and there were several border altering wars including wars between Iran and Russia. This was going on even into the late 1800s and also included Britain who was allied with Russia.

There was a great famine in Iran in 1870-1872, when 2 million people died. Farmers shifted to producing cotton instead of food, but that is a simplified explanation. Britain probably wanted cotton for their mills.

If Iranian history was not complex enough, it got much worse once oil was discovered in Iran in 1908. The British, especially, wanted to conquer Iran in order to control the oil. All of Iranian history since that point can be reasonably framed as external parties fighting over control of Iran's government in order to control Iran's oil. (The parallels between Venezuela and Iran are stunning. Both Iran and Venezuela were targeted after Netanyahu met with Trump at Miami. More on that below.)

The overthrow of the Shah in 1979 marked the point where Iran regained sovereign control of oil assets, but it also brought on external sanctions that remain in effect to our day.

There is a current western media created fight to restore the Shah. This appears to only be real on American TV news. This is really an attempt to restore western control over Iranian oil assets. Restoring the Shah would restore external control over the rest of the Iranian government and economy. Netanyahu says as much, calling out for regime change in Iran, and working through secret services embedded in Iran who will work to that end.

So the war in Iran has the same goals as the wars against Russia and China. The western rulers, now called Zionists, cannot rule the world from Jerusalem without Iran being included as part of their empire. They don't have control over it now, thus the need for war with Iran. Zionist bankers also need control over Iranian oil sales, more on that below.

So now, back up to the prophetic story. What we see in that prophetic story is Persia, so modern Iran, will have victory over the party that started ruling in Israel in 1948. Persia will commission again some modern prophetic Ezra who will return to Jerusalem and set up a religion following the Persian "god of the skies."

However bad this may become for Iran, they are not likely to be conquered by the west in any ultimately meaningful way because their prophetic destiny involves rebuilding Jerusalem for their own purposes.

Scripture Apps

Ryan is NOT updating scripture apps this week. He has been deep into the tooling needed to handle various problems related to divine names. Late this week he began another iteration of that tooling. Iterative design works well for 3d work. It also works well for manuscript work. In both cases, each iteration makes the results better.

There are places in the text where there are long runs of divine names. I gave an example of these runs in the last blog. Before this week he was treating those cases as single long names.

The work he is doing now breaks those down into lists of individual divine names. This gives finer control without an explosion in the number of variations.

Weekly updates should return next week.

Match Dates

We had 1 date we were watching for prophetic headlines this week. Let me review.

Solomon's First Year

2026-01-14, Wednesday, was the date for the replay of the start of Solomon's co-reign. The main event on that date was a meeting at the White House between US Vice President JD Vance and a delegation from Greenland and Denmark. That delegation was lead by Danish Foreign Minister Løkke Rasmussen. As Hal Turner reported, Trump had asked NATO to remove Denmark from the island. The meeting was Denmark's attempt to get redress. But they only received a royal audience with Vance and not Trump. The Greenlanders stood no chance.

As a result, Denmark and Sweden are now reported to be sending military forces to Greenland. Note also that nearly all people living on Greenland are Native Americans, originally from North America, not from Europe. So most have no even remote heritage reason to return to Europe.

Note the curious detail, JD Vance was leading the meeting. He is the likely replacement for Trump, so the prophetic son of Trump, so a prophetic Solomon. This detail is what identifies this as the likely fulfillment headline.

JD Vance becomes president either in eventual elections or because Trump does not remain in office to the end of the current term. The latter scenario seems more likely.

On Alex Christoforou's update the following day, so Thursday the 15th, his update #1940, he reported that Iran strikes had been planned for this same prophetic date, but were canceled. Trump was on video indicating that because Iran had stopped planned executions, he was stopping the attack.

It looks like the USA blinked. More likely this was never the planned date, the USA is playing mind games with the leaders in Iran.

This Iran War story is more likely at the plague date on January 24th. See below.

Trump's real problem is his scheduled appearance at the annual WEF meeting. Trump is scheduled to give a speech and would likely be booed or laughed out of the room if he was driving a war going on against Iran. That WEF meeting runs from January 19 to 23, 2026. This is just between the next 2 prophetic dates. Note that delaying the Iran attack to the 24th puts it both immediately after the WEF and on that future prophetic date.

The WEF meeting may be something like Solomon's court and may yet play into the prophetic date just after the close of those meetings. It will be curious to see if JD Vance goes to the WEF.

Watch Dates

The next prophetic date in the series is 2026-01-18, which is the first year when Solomon rules alone, this is one day after the prophetic replay of the death of David. This date is the Sunday after this blog goes out.

The following prophetic date is 2026-01-24, which is the Saturday after next week's blog goes out. I will return to it again next week.

This 2026-01-24 date is the expected point when we see the prophetic replay of the sacrifices that went along with Solomon's temple dedication. In history this was on the year 10,000 and may have been some sort of millennial celebration. So for that story, fireworks are warranted. So you can see why the WEF meetings are like some sort of gathering to celebrate.

This 2026-01-24 date is also called out as the plague series match to the blood on the water/river. This is the first date where we get to test our hunch that there is a strong prophetic alignment between the Jerusalem king's narrative stories and the stories of the plagues on Egypt.

Shop Work

In the shop this week the Script exhibit was updated with a new trim. This to provide a more picture frame like appearance around the edge. This makes it look and feel more like the chests. Watch for pics on Telegram.

The Ladder exhibit continued printing this week. The backs were completed. The fronts should be completed soon after this blog goes out.

Also this week, the second iteration of the Staff exhibit was 3d printed. A 3rd iteration is currently running on the printers. Watch for pics on Telegram.

As this is the first time this exhibit has been built, let me go into some of the interesting details.

Staff Exhibit Details

The Staff exhibit carries the writing of the commandments. The length is 60 letter audit squares. So 1 letter square per day of the year. The entire passage looks to be 1 line of text from the eventual multi-line final pages of inspired manuscripts.

Ryan and I worked out these audit-passing commandments by hand a few years ago. We did this on a computer using Inkscape. Those files are still around. I transferred those results to the 3d design system for this exhibit.

Working over this string in the design system exposed interesting edge cases at the start and stop of the line of text itself. There appears to be rules for line breaks that were not obvious to us when we first did this work.

A line of text is likely 360 squares wide, but with the letter grid drawn in the centers of those squares. There is a section of the Megiddo Mosaic floor that looks to be teaching this same point. This discovery also impacts the design of the dogs on the Table exhibit, which will be updated soon.

Curiously, Ryan was using the Table exhibit dogs to check his list of alternative divine names. He wanted to make sure that inspired writers could use those names in inspired text. The short answer is yes. But in doing this Ryan needed to chain the dogs together. At that point he had essentially found the same line breaking issue I was finding on the Staff. He even ran into this problem on the same day as I was dealing with line breaking on the staff.

I expect this letter string for the commandments to be the final correct form. There is very little freedom of change within this string of letters. This string becomes the test case for calibrating audit software, hopefully later this year.

The commandments, as 3d printed on the staff, are arranged with correct spacing to visually pass audit. The staff also includes the needed audit marks to check the audit work for the entire commandments list. Unlike the dogs on the Table exhibit, there are no coloring clues. Users of the staff are shepherds and presumably know what they are doing.

The backside of the staff, so normally the bottom of the staff, has English hints for each of the commandments. So by rotating the staff there is a translation of the Paleo seen on the bottom. English sentences are generally longer than Paleo, so it is a squeeze.

In terms of curriculum built around the exhibits, this is the first important paragraph of text. It includes all letters and punctuation except the Jo. (Perhaps there still lurks a letter substitution?) It is reasonably easy to memorize even in a letter perfect form. It has several examples of simple grammar, though most sentences are only 2 words long. This is similar to early reader sentences in English. "See Spot Run," is a similarly simple English sentence of the same style as the commandments.

The commandments as given in Exodus 20 are much more verbose than the final audited form. Someone, likely Ezra, went along and added text to the inspired core. Those additions only run about 1/2 way down the commandments, which was the clue that the entire set was likely inspired as a short set of simple sentences.

The only substitution we needed to make in this string of letters was to replace Yahweh with Joshua as the personal name of god. At the time we worked this out we had suspected the Old Testament divine name would be Joshua, but at that point we now had audit level proof.

Recent divine name work has expanded the rules for what substitutions will be legal and why. These detailed substitution rules are sorely needed in the often more complex stories.

I suspect we have been slowly wandering to this divine name study ever since we worked out the letter string for the commandments. We could not go much farther with the audit until we learned the details of the divine name problem.

It feels like we have come full circle from that first manual audit work to now being ready for automated audit software. In those days we did not understand the complexity of the divine names riddle. Now we do.

Headline Review

The following headlines caught my attention this week.

Tucker With Caragonov

The link here is to a Tucker Carlson video on Youtube. In this video Tucker talks with Putin advisor Caragonov who is located in Russia. You can safely skip the first 51 minutes of Tucker's opening monologue in order to get to the good stuff. Tucker recorded an opening monologue in order to frame some of the topics found in the latter part of this interview which Tucker had already recorded. Most of the time Tucker does not need an opening monologue for his guests. This is an exception.

Regular readers here should be able to better frame the Ukraine war than does Tucker, since this is mostly a religious war, which Tucker cannot discuss.

Caragonov speaks English, but with a heavy Russian accent. Occasionally he stops to find correct English words. Turn on Closed Captioning to track this more easily. Most of the time the Closed Captioning picks off correct English words, but beware, sometimes it wildly misses. This is part of the fun of tracking Russian speakers.

This video provides a very important view from the Russian side toward the war in Ukraine. He gives the conditions under which the Russians will resort to using nuclear weapons against the west. He explains that Putin is both a religious and patient man, which is why the Russians have not escalated quicker. Putin's religious faith is regulating his actions, unlike Trump who only has his own personal morality, which seems to vary day by day.

Caragonov also gives a bunch of commentary on the moral and especially religious degeneracy of European Elites. He also views the world from the perspective of Orthodox Christianity. He repeats what we have learned from others, like Stanislav Krapivnik, that to Russians war is a sin. This religious view regulates Russia's freedom of action in war. We have nothing comparable in the modern USA. Caragonov also explains Nuclear war is a double sin, with still more constraints.

Caragonov also has the same general world view as Putin as to how the world should be run once all of this is over. The 4 great powers, so Russia, China, India and the United States, need to work constructively together to solve the world's various problems. This is a strong multi-polarity view of the world which comes from Christianity. It is distinctly different than Pharaoh's morally degenerate hierarchy as imagined in the west.

This is about 40 minutes that are well worth the time. A great chance to learn more about Russian thought.

World's Oil Trade

The link here is to a Michael Hudson article on Unz, dated January 13, 2026. The title is "Weaponizing the World's Oil Trade Is The Bedrock of the U.S. Rules-Based Order." Michael does not factor in how the USA is just Israel's vassal, but the content of the article is still valid. Everything Hudson explains is just being done for the benefit of Zionist central bankers. It is central to their goal of setting up a world capital at Jerusalem.

This is the first time anyone has been able to explain what is going on in Venezuela, Iran and Russia. Briefly, the US Dollar is propped up in part because the international oil trade is settled in the dollar. This is more than just the Petro Dollar and Saudi Arabia. But it explains the fundamental economic ties between Russia, Iran, Venezuela and China.

Russia, Iran and Venezuela sell oil to China where the Chinese currency is used instead. This makes sense in terms of balance of trade. Chinese stuff is buying oil. But when the price of oil is in Chinese currency, the Zionist bankers are left out and the bankers no longer can manipulate prices nor take their usual transaction related cut.

Should this activity go any wider, this becomes a serious threat to Zionist control of the world. This would explain why Venezuela and Iran were both on the same war plans when Netanyahu visited Trump at the start of 2026.

Jan 4th Protocol

The link here is to a Youtube video on the Archivist channel. Some copies of the Hudson article linked above also include links to this video. This is AI Slop, which by policy I would not expect to be linked off of unz.com, and which I would not normally link here in the blog either. It may also not be factual.

BUT, this video is illustrative of the problem of what settlement of oil trades outside of the US Dollar actually means to western bankers. It is a grim future for western bankers if oil does eventually settle outside of the US Dollar based Swift system.

The video above explains the use of gold for settlement of international trade. Gold (and silver) are priced by physical trading markets in China. The computer networks now allow gold settlement of international trade.

Use of gold for such trades keeps the Chinese currency OUT of the role of a reserve currency. This is important to protect Chinese workers from the fate of British and now American workers. Reserve currencies kill the competitiveness of workers whose wages are paid in that same currency. So China would want gold as the international reserve currency. They would want gold for international trade settlements for any case where there is an imbalance in trading totals. Hudson's article above points at a shift to gold for this use.

My suspicion is that Zionist plans had expected Russia to have fallen by sometime in Biden's term. Zionists would have taken over Russia and the Russian Rubble would have replaced the US Dollar in world trade by now. That, of course, did not happen. So the banker's plan B requires the US Dollar to be revived. That is what Trump is doing now, however strange it may be when he kidnaps people like Maduro.

War with Iran would thus have 2 goals. Either a Zionist puppet placed in charge over Iran, say a returned Shah, or else destruction of Iran's oil infrastructure. Either goal from a war with Iran protects the US Dollar and Zionist control over the rest of the planet.

CIA in Iran?

The link here is to a Judge Nap video on Youtube. In this video the judge discusses the riots in Iran. This video is representative of many others on alternative media where Israel and the USA are suspected to be the agents behind early riots in Iran.

Iran suspected foreign agents were driving the riots. The Iranian government responded by turning off the internet across Iran. Elon Musk was the on record as turning on Star Link at the start of those riots.

This was already a very strange tell that something covert was going on. With no normal Star Link services available in Iran, who would have Star Link terminals?

Only western agents who knew Star Link would be turned on at the start of this war would have such terminals, and those same terminals would have been smuggled in. Musk basically gave away that the riots were driven by foreign agents.

In any case, it took a few days before pro-Iranian protests overwhelmed the rioters. Star Link terminals, unable to phone home, apparently upped their output power trying to reach through clouds. That provided homing beacons to Iranian officials out to find the spies.

Inside Iran

The link here is to a Counter Currents video on Youtube. Larry Johnson's guests are Nima Alkhorshid and Syed Mohammad Marandi. They discuss the situation inside Iran. This link is for permanent reference as to the state of Iran as the riots began to shift to pro-government, which swamped out the earlier, smaller, protests.

Trump Set Up Putin

The link here is to a Glenn Diesen video on Youtube. Glenn's guest is Scott Ritter. They discuss the recent missile attack on Putin's residence. The Russians eventually gave back to the USA bits from the downed missiles. Those bits proved the attack was by the USA and directed by the USA against Russia.

So the Russians were silent for about 48 hours because there was no longer any hiding the fact the USA is at war with Russia. This was an escalation and it brings us closer to nuclear war.

Update: UPS 2976 Crash

The link here is to a blancolirio channel video on Youtube. This is Juan Brown's report on an update that the NTSB has released involving the bearing failure that led to that crash.

The new report shows engine performance data that shows the number 2 engine was also damaged, presumably by foreign object debris (fod) from the failed number 1 engine. This was a known failure mode for this aircraft which I discussed in the blog. Now there is supporting data from this crash on this point.

But this report also goes into the bearing used in the engine mount. This is the bearing that failed which lead to the loss of the number 1 engine. Remember, failure of that same bearing led to deadly crashes of this same design ~45 years ago. So it is a safety critical part with a known history.

As Brown reports, the NTSB has found that in 2011, Boeing engineers deemed that same bearing, should it fail, would NOT lead to a loss of the engine.

This contradicts known crash history with this design.

The engineers responsible for that design in 2011 seem to have forgotten how that same bearing had failed and crashed the same model of airplane in earlier years.

When I was in business school this would be called an example of the loss of cultural memory. Those engineers in 2011 appear to have not had any memory of their own crash history, nor the results of the related NTSB investigations.

Companies prevent this problem through new employee training. But they must also train employees on specific project histories. This needs to happen when someone is promoted into jobs which requires historical knowledge, say the lead engineers on a particular airframe design. This is very important if the project has been around for a long time. In the case of the MD-11 airframe, at least 3 previous generations of lead engineers have been responsible for that design.

Companies with engineering teams must also leave behind a documentation trail that describes the events that happened during the design process. What were they thinking? Why did they leave a design as it turns out, and so on.

Because Americans already live culturally only in the moment, this is a particularly difficult thing to do for most American companies.

This Paleo blog has been going out since 2018. We had been doing blog like things for maybe 20 years previous. But we started out using social media platforms where the blog history disappeared when those platforms disappeared. Remember Yahoo groups? Neither do I.

So now the blog is just part of a website, itself under revision control and stored in a standard git repository. So the files are mostly archival safe. The weekly routine gives a place to chronicle nearly all discovery and design work that is going on.

Each week, I actually try and chronicle everything going around here. For some readers this is perhaps more detail than really needed. But what I am doing is providing the documentation trail should future generations of "Paleo Engineers" need a detailed history of our project and the discovery process we are going through week by week. Hopefully, this work will keep future generations from creating their own "Paleo plane wreck."

AI Slop -- Railroad Content

AI Slop Goes Further

The links here are to a pair of BadgerlandTrains816 channel videos on Youtube. The host goes into the problem of AI generated videos on Youtube that are dealing with trains. He gives an excellent rundown of what to look for in AI generated videos. He is specifically calling out train related videos, but the principle is the same for other content.

He fails to mention that trains are dangerous. Humans creating such videos know the risks and can explain safety issues when needed. The big one is not trespassing on RR property. AI Slop does not understand life. If Youtube does not take action to self regulate, then AI Slop videos should be banned as a matter of law.

Of course this won't happen. Both Youtube and the government are run by the death cult we know of as Zionists.

More Later,
