SUBTOPICS: A Common Name - Leader of the "Sons of Light"[Essene] -

....When we look up the name "Michael" in Strong's, as we have looked up "Ariel" and "Lucifer", we discover there were a lot of Israelites named Michael, and one very prominent daughter of King Saul, who married King David, named Michal, the feminine form of Michael.

4317 Miyka'el , me-kaw-ae'; who (is) like God?; Michael, the name of an archangel and nine Israelites: - Michael.

On looking up Michal, Saul's daughters name, we discover it means only a brook or rivulet.

.....The name Michael, in spite of it's godlike theme, did not achieve prominence until the Book of Daniel in the Old Testament. And Jude and Revelation in the New Testament. ....Which should and does alert Bible scholars that it is the ESSENES that made it prominent, since scraps of many many copies of Daniel were found in Qumran cave 4, and Jude consists mostly of direct quotions of Enoch, another ESSENE favorite.

In spite of the enforced ignorance of orthodox scholars that Revelation is also an ESSENE book, those of us who are not funded by the major churches, nor forced to guard our retirement paychecks and reputation can clearly see the ESSENE imagery in Revelation.

It's all there, the Astrology, apocalyptic viewpoint, heroes wearing white garments [the sons of light] battling demons and beasts [the sons of Beliel, or darkness], and an ESSENE Jesus, dressed as an ESSENE High Priest [white garment, golden girdle] wandering on Yom Kippur among the candles representing churches.

.....Revelation 12:7 "And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

.....8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.

.....9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

.....10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before God day and night.

.....11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their souls unto death.

.....12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and they that dwell in them: Woe to the inhabitors of earth and of this seal for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time."

.....Ignoring now the usual emphasis of our priests and ministers on such terms as "the Devil, and Satan", and their assurance that this evil entitity will indeed be defeated [mostly by their evangelistic efforts], we can here emphasize the plainly evident also Astrological schedule that shows a whole Zodiac Age is involved in this battle between "Michael" and "the dragon". .....The dragon is none other than the Zodiac figure of the "sea serpent", CETUS, which fills the same segment of the night sky as the "two fishes", allotted to the "Age of Pisces".

.... The Sumerian Zodiac, used by the Elohim, the 12 God council that determines the fate of our world since the creation of mankind [originally to be "slaves of the gods"] is pictured below.

.....The long snake or serpent, entering the night sky from beneath in this highly symbolic depiction is the "milky way" also represents Lord Enki, God of Earth and Creator of mankind [also seen as the Devil in some Biblical anologies]. ....Jesus Christ was either the real son of a descendent of Enki, Lord Shiva, or was adopted by him.

.....Immediately to the right of the serpent's entry into the circle of the sky are two figures, a large RAM [for Aries] and over it's hind-quarters, the two fishes [for Pisces]. To the left of the serpent's body are several birds [Age of Aquarius]. We can only enter the Age of Aquarius when the serpent's time has passed. Which pictorally shows exactly what Revelation 12:7-12 is saying verbally!

.....Revelation 12:7 "And there was war [A CHANGE OF LEADERSHIP] in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon [THE FISHES, or CETUS]; and the [ZODIAC AGE] fought and his angels [AND PREVAILED ON EARTH, AS ALWAYS],

.....8 And prevailed not [IN STAYING IN HEAVEN]; neither was their place found any more in heaven [BECAUSE THE POWER OF 'PISCES' WAS NOW ON EARTH].

.....9 And the great dragon [CETUS, the SEA-SERPENT] was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which [PRESENTLY] deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels [THE ESSENES AND JESUS] were cast out with him.

.....10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven [THE ELOHIM ARE, AS USUAL, EMPOWERING THIS TRANSITION], Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of Christ: for the accuser of our brethren [ARIES] is cast down, which accused them before God day and night. [THE ZODIAC, ONLY VISIBLE AT NIGHT, IS STILL "IN POWER" OF DAYTIME ACTIVITIES].

.....11 And they overcame him [ARIES, the GOD OR ANGEL OF WAR and BLOODSHED] by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their souls unto death. [THE CHRISTIAN MARTYRS].

.....12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and they that dwell in them: [THE ELOHIM, STILL IN CHARGE] Woe to the inhabitors of earth and of this seal for the devil [ENKI'S DESCENDENT, LORD SHIVA] is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time." [SHIVA IS ALSO THE ENDER OF THE AGE --2000 YEARS -- A SHORT TIME TO THE ELOHIM].

....10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before God day and night.

.... No matter how fervently Muslim clerics may wish to claim Jesus pointed the way to Mohammed as the ultimate True Prophet, the language here is not of prophets, but of "Salvation", a uniquely Christian term, and the "Kingdom of God", which Jesus repeatedly claimed to be ushering in during his ministry, not 600 years later. This he did "by the blood of the Lamb," not by Mohammeds "5 pillers" of Islam. .....Mohammed denied Jesus' crucifixion, and said that Jesus arranged for a look-alike to be crucified.

.....The "word of testimony" is here the word of the prophets before Jesus, and the "word of testimony" of the gospel writers, not the poems of Mohammed in the Qur'an, 700 years later!...One gives "testimony" to what one has experienced, not otherwise......

SUMMARY: The prophecy of Revelation 12:7-12 is full of Astrology figures and implied dates limiting it to the "Age of Cetus or Pisces". ....It is also couched in Christan language that excludes Islam as the major player of the Age. ..."Michael" is then assumed to be an Essene-Christian archangel, although of Jewish background.

To show this graphically, I have included a star of David, a scroll for the Essenes, and Christ on the cross, as well as the blood-dripping sword in the initial picture of MICHAEL. Dr. Bob Holt, MD

....4 "I saw the ram [ARIES, as USUAL] pushing westward, and nortward, and southward; so that no beasts might stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and became great." Here Daniel, acclaimed as a real Astrologer in the court of King Nebuchadnezzar, is heralding the power of ARIES "the Ram" in the heavens of his age, but is about to say it will lose that power when another "Age" arrives, which is a basic truth to all Astrologers.

....5 "And as I was considering, behold, an he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground [BECAUSE IT WAS A HEAVENLY FIGURE, A ZODIAC FIGURE]; and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes." Here Daniel [or his ghost-writers] is picturing CETUS, the "sea-monster" with its usual long horn, but calling it a he-goat instead of a sea-monster purely for editorial reasons. A land-animal cannot fight a sea-monster on land without straining everyone's imagination too far to be credible.

.....6 "And he [CETUS] came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran into him in the fury of his power." Impossible to visualize if CETUS remained a sea monster. Or even more ludicrous. "two fishes".

.....7 "And I saw him come close unto the ram [ARIES], and he was moved with choler [anger, wrath] against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and there was no power in the ram [ARIES] to stand up before him [FOR THE AGE OF ARIES WAS PAST], but he [CETUS-PISCES] cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him; and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand [BECAUSE THE ELOHIM DO NOT INTERFERE WITH THE "END OF AN AGE".]

.....8 "Therefore the he goat [CETUS-PISCES] waxed very great [by the power of Rome, the Vatican, etc.]; and when he was strong, the great horn was broken [the REFORMATION, ENLIGHTENMENT, DEMOCRACY, etc.]; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven [UNITED NATIONS, etc.]

.....9 "And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great toward the south, and towards the east, and towards the pleasant land." Possibly the rise of Islam, 600 years after the beginning of the "Age of Pisces".

....10 "And it [ISLAM?] waxed great, even to the host of heaven [ISLAM denied all the ancient gods, the ELOHIM]; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them." Islam, in this scenero, seems to have taken over the power of the "Age of Pisces", by casting down Christian armies, and using the West's technology against the Western countries.

"Stamping on stars" is of course impossible in a real universe, but in Astrology it is permissible to use such imagery, and another "Age" is coming, the "Age of Aquarius".

....1"And at that time [THE END OF PISCES] shall Michael [our Hero] stand up [with the Elohim's permission], the great prince [Prince Meghavahana of Kashmir] which standeth for the children of thy people [the remnant of the Jews, now scattered to every nation]:

and there shall be a time of trouble [two world wars and the Jewish holocaust] such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time;

and at that time thy people [the remnant of the Jews] shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book [so long as they can prove their Jewish genealogy.]

This is a dated prophecy, duplicated with additional details in Matthew 24:15-34. ...All of these events were fulfilled in the 1940s and 1950s.

....It does this by talking about "the end", or "it is finished" precisely 7 times, no more, no less. Each of these "endings" are of a millennial day, of 1000 years.

...The last "millennial day" will end about the year 3000, about 1000 years still in our future [give or take a few years]. By that time the last Muslim terrorist's name will be long forgotten!

.....Daniel 12:12-13 "Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days. But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou [O Daniel] shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days."

....Jude is an extremely short New Testament book, found in the KJV just before Revelation. .........It was written by Jesus' younger brother Judas, called "Judas not Iscariot" in some of the Gospel accounts. ...Few realize that two of Jesus' brothers, James and Judas were members of the "Twelve Apostles", a religious and political council that ruled the Essenes between 29 AD and 33 AD with Jesus as their Messiah, and after 33 AD with James as their Messiah.

....The Roman Catholic Church, through Jesuit scholars intent on keeping mother Mary a perpetual "Virgin" have eliminated most of her large family of 5 boys and several daughters by promoting the un-Biblical story that Joseph was a widower with a large family before he met and married Mary. ..And that he never consummated his marriage with Mary. ....[Illegal and immoral by Jewish law, and subject to marriage annulment.]

.....It is precisely because the Church Fathers of Eucebius' time [4th century AD] knew James and Judas [Jude] to be the real brothers of Jesus that their books were included in the New Testament canon, although the "Fathers" did not like either book. .."James" because he promoted the Essene "Gospel" of "Good Works", and "Jude" because he quoted so extensively from "Enoch", an Essene book that the "Fathers" hoped to bury and erase from the memory of mankind.

.....Jude 9 "Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, the Lord rebuke thee.".... Note that here, in Jude, is the only reference in which Michael is called "the Archangel", although the Revelation text pictures him as in charge of angels fighting "the dragon". ..This is Essene "angelology" at it's finest, and can be added to considerably by reading other Dead Sea Scrolls discovered at Qumran and nearby after 1947. .And duly suppressed by the Catholic scholars who were supposed to translate and disseminate them right away, but who kept many of them out of circulation for 40 - 50 years!

.....Jude 9 introduces the type of "questions" into orthodox theology that the Church has always tried to prevent being asked......... Why would there be any disputation as to where the body of Moses would be staying, in the earth or in heaven?..... [The Essenes wrote an alternative story, that Moses was taken up to heaven without dying. ........The evidence is seen in the "Transfiguration Scene" in which Jesus met with Moses and Elijah.]

.....Jude 9 also allows more familiarity between "Michael" and "the Devil" than orthodox Theology allows. ...And that a third party, "the Lord" has the final say on all these things. ....This "Lord" cannot be Jesus if Jesus Himself is "Michael" as many presume.

.....New information shows that Jesus and the Indian god Lord Shiva considered to be their equivalent of the Western "Devil" were on very friendly terms, and cooperated with each other to rule our world for 2000 years!

..... Jude 14, "And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints. 15 To execute judgement upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him." It is now generally thought by scholars that even if the Essenes did not write the original Book of Enoch [which they might have], they revised it periodically, some of these revisions being made even in Jesus' age. ......It seems more than coincidental that Jude 14 and 15 describes exactly Jesus' activities in Kashmir during Jude's lifetime, and that Jude, as Jesus' brother would have known of these activities!

.....Jude 14 [paraphrased] ".....Behold King Meghavahana comes from Kashmir with ten thousands of the descendents of the lost tribes of Israel.

.....15 "Besides converting all of India to a vegetarian diet, he is, with the help of his "Heavenly Father" Lord Shiva, making time/space journeys into the late 20th and early 21st century, "to execute judgement upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them" [using "amazing grace" as the excuse for their ungodly behavior] of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners [the popes and othodox theologians] have spoken against him [and against the original Essene docrine that Good Works bring "Salvation" to individuals, and to the world.]

Kings of Kashmira page 36 "This prince [Meghavahana, king from 25 - 59 AD] led an expedition to compel other kings to desist from killing animals; and carried his arms to the sea, and even to Ceylon, making the subdued kings promise to not kill animals."

The Essenes were vegetarians, and other parts of the "Kings of Kashmira" story show Jesus being given "roots" as a gift by a messenger from Lord Shiva. ....Lord Shiva himself in the Indian pantheon of gods is a "protector of animal life".

Kings of Kasmira page 38 "The prince [Pravarasena I, king from 59 - 89 AD] thought the whole world was entirely subject to him, and dedicated Trigartta to the god Pravareshvara which he had set up. He ruled over other kings, and reigned for thirty years with mercy. He always liked to use his jewelled sword." .....It is here, in "Kings of Kashmira", that the real story of the "Archangel Michael" is to be found. ....By those with "eyes to see" and "ears to hear".
