U 40 211 a 3670 priests, and scribes, and wise men in the east, and the star in the east; he describes Joseph as a dreamer, &c. Luke, on the contrary, representing the summer solstice and autumnal equinox, tells about the decree of Cæsar Augustus, of the whole world being taxed; he, Luke, tells of the city of David, and of the woman great with child; he tells of there being no room in the inn, of the swaddling clothes, and the birth in the manger; he tells of Gabriel's appearance, and of the shepherds; not one word of these occurrences are directly or indirectly referred to by Matthew; how could they be when, as stated, everything Matthew relates rises from the winter solstice and vernal equinox, and every word of Luke's account of the Sun saviour's birth applies to the summer solstice and autumnal equinox. The accounts given by the two writers are so remarkably at variance that it betokens sightless intellect, or mental blindness, for any reader to pass them unnoticed. According to what has been interpreted, it is clear that the conception of the Sun saviour was ecclesiastically with the " Lady of the Sea," MARY, or Venus, or Scotia, or Lady of the Day (say, 25th March), and, according to the Church Calendar, nine months after, on the 25th of December, the birth followed, but beyond the conception, Mary Andromeda had nothing to do with the birth of the child. Cæsar is at R 106, and Augustus at R 111; and in those days the dies non, R 106 and AR111, being taxed Luke ii. 1, 2-And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Cæsar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. (This taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) from the circle, Cæsar and Augus tus united, became one and the same personage. This Matthew, in his first account of the birth, says Mary was found with child of the Holy Ghost, ÆR 106.3 From whom she conceived the child is not here stated, but being the espoused wife, would imply Joseph Arcturus to be the father, and not Gabriel, as set forth in Luke, chap. i. 28. Spica, with compasses from the north centre of the ecliptic, will, by law, be just under the k 11 ecliptic at R 106, and compasses from the north equatorial pole will deposit Arcturus, according to law,8 m 21 with Spica, but this conjunction is after the birth of the child. This is explicit enough in Matthew's first account, viz., "Joseph knew her not (his wife) till she had brought forth. 6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be de- her first born." Whilst in the city livered. Acts xxviii. II 2 4 O 3 Y 47-48 4 m 37 Y 5 U 44 Y U 4 Y 7 Luke i. 76 these asses were those of Kish, that were lost and found. The name of the sign of the inn was "Castor and Pollux," and the cause of the inn2 (the Gemini) being so full was owing to the assembling of the planets there, when they were all in conjunction.

As the sun was there at AR 76, it would be night for the constellations; and there, at R 76, is Auriga with his goat and lambs, and there is Raguel, meaning "the shepherd of God." The field, or rather the green hills, are correctly at R 76.* The Gemini (II) astronomically, not pictorially so, are in the same sign with the shepherds. And the angel Gabriel (Algenib) came upon them, at /R 76,5 and the glory of the Lord, the sun, shone round about 9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them; and they were sore afraid. them; and it being night to them, they were sore afraid. And the angel said, "Fear not, for I bring you good tidings of great joy, for unto you is born this day in the city of David (at R 106 = 111), a Saviour, &c. And this shall be the sign unto you (shepherds), ye shall find the babe wrapa manger." And a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, &c. The host of Judah would be lauding at R 76.6 The multitude of heaven are with the Gemini, and, as stated, the Gemini are astronomically with Judah at R 76. The angels go away from the shepherds into heaven. 10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. 11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David, a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. 12 And this a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. ped in swaddling clothes, lying in suddenly there was with the angel 13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying 14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

All the four Gospels give an account of the crucifixion, or annual death of the Sun saviour. It will be unnecessary, after what has been interpreted, to wade seriatim through the details given by each writer, as all tend to the same result. Judah and Judas are by theologists considered to be the same, whereas they are the reverse of one another; Judah denoting exaltation, and Judas depression. Judah being Aries, Fudas is consequently Libra. + Iscariot is from "Ish," "man," and "careth," "he that + o R 127 e AR 127 on the ecliptic denote Præsepe. Cancer is of 20 c AR 127 degrees, so that Cancer on the Gemini, in verity, takes the manger to the young sun-child, Apollo, at the selstice R 107. In confirmation, Capernaum means "the field of repentance," and also "the town of pleasure," the reverses of each other.

Some say that the derivation is from a Syriac word meaning" a purse" or "bag." Persis means "that cuts" or "divides," and, as fully explained, he, Perseus, cuts or divides the year, day from night; and as Mercury, he is pictured with a purse or bag; so that being in Judah (Aries), it explains why he has been confounded with Judas, one of the twelve. Then came the day of unleavened bread or the 6th of January, when the passover must be killed, and the Sun saviour, with the reduced zodiac John xiii. 29.-For some thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor. Luke xxii. 7—12.— Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed. And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat. And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in. And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?

And they went, and found as he had said; and they made ready the equinoxial passover; and when the hour was come, he, the Sun saviour, sat down on the ecliptic, at R 106 = 111, and around, or in front, were the twelve apostles; and he said, "With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer;" that passover was the western equinoxial supper, at sunset, and was to be a terminus, for he added, "I say unto you I will not any more eat thereof until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God," AR 281.6 Bread or wine are not mentioned at this feast, but the cup was taken, and he said, me.

Then would Genubi kiss the Sun saviour-Genubi at R 250, the Sun saviour at R 251. Some personate Judas as Hiram, meaning "he that destroys." Hiram Esau, after his bar gain with Jacob, is at times at R 251, John xiii. 27-And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly. and there Genubi Judas enters him.

In the fray described at the caption of the saviour, a right ear is cut off, AR 281,3 and And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself. Luke xxii 50, 51.-¶ And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him. it is healed, the mark only remaining visible. Peter Matthew xxvii. 69-75.-¶ Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee. But he denied before all, saying, I know not what thou sayest. And when he was gone out into the porch, another saw him, and said unto them that were there, This was also with Jesus of Nazareth. And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man. stood without, at AR 256, and the damsel Rhoda came to him, ÆR 256,4 and said, "Thou wast with Jesus of the zodiac;" but Peter denied, saying, "I know not what thou sayest." Then Peter went out into the porch, AR 281,5 when another maid, Hebe, of AR 281,6 saw him, and said, "This fellow was also with Jesus," and again Peter denied with an oath, "I do not know the man." After a while, viz. at R 286, those that stood by (see Index, feet) said, "Surely thou art one of them, for thy speech bewrayeth thee." Peter, at R 256, speaks the language of Elul, or Canaan.7 Then Peter swore I know not the man, and anathematized, and the altar upon which he Isaiah xix. 18.--¶In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan, swore is beneath, at and swear to the LORD of hosts; one shall be R 286,8 and so is called the city of destruction.

Thus Peter denied thrice, viz. at R 256, AR 281, and R 286. Morning commences at midnight, to be correct according to law, and when they had bound Jesus, or Zeus, with the bow-string, they led him away to the entrance of the celestial lodge, and delivered him to the inner guard.
