A pointed to the Pole Star Alpha Draconis about the year 2160 B.C. Interestingly, in the year 2144 B.CC., there was a conjunction of certain stars with the Great Pyramid which will never happen again. The Pleiades was just overhead, a symbol of divine sweet influence, above the scored lines in the Descending Passage. The constellation Dracconis, a symbol of Satan the devil, was then in the position of the north pole star, and sent its light directly down the passage. 2 f age when he died. Jasher relates, “and all the days that Nimrod lived were two hundred and fifteen years and he died” (Jasher 27:15). He died in the 18th year of Jacob and Esau, the year 1878 B.C., that would mean he was born to Cush, in his old age, in the year 2093 B.C. Nimrod reigned for 185 years (Jasher 27:16); therefore he became king at the age of 30. N Cush became the father of Nimrod; he was the first on earth to become a mighty warrior. He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; therefore it is said, ‘Like Nimrod a 13 mighty hunter before the LORD.’ The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, and Accad, all of them in the land of Shinar” (Gen.10:8-10, NRSV). Nimrod was the post-Flood world’s first great REBEL and APOSTATE, who led the post-Flood world back into idolatry and wicked rebellion against the government of God! It is significant therefore that Draconis, the Dragon, or the Devil, shone brightly down the Descending Passage of the Great Pyramid, at that very time! Says Riffert, “the star pointing of the Scored Lines, in conjunction with the pointing of the Descending Passage to the north pole star, Alpha, in the constellation Draconis, September 22, 2144, indicated that the Zero hour of the Pyramid’s time system was Midnight of the Autumn Equinox, and second, that at the time of conjunction, almost 500 years earlier, the Pyramid’s symbolism and science were so harmonized with the astronomical setting of September 22, 2144 B.C. as to present an exact panoramic and prophetic view of the crucial events of 6,000 years of human history, the cardinal facts about the solar system and the message of the Bible. In other words, the design of this wonderful Monument was determined in accord with the astronomical conjunctions beginning at midnight, September 22, 2144 B.C., and the foreknown events of 5,000 years of human history yet unwritten. If this is not a demonstration of Omniscience such as God alone possesses then there is none” (Great Pyramid Proof of God, p.65). When Was It Built? The time of the Great Pyramid’s construction has been calculated by some at 2625 B.C. With a Pyramid inch equaling a year, in the sloping passages, the date of the Floor Ledge Opening in the Limestone Face of the Perfect Pyramid is figured at 2625 B.C. Coptic and ancient Jewish traditions say that the Pyramid was built 300 years before the Flood. Ussher’s chronology places the Flood at 2348 B.C., so about 300 years earlier would be in the neighborhood of 2648 B.C. This means the Great Pyramid was built during the lifetime of the antediluvian prophet and patriarch Enoch! Enoch and the Great Pyramid We read in the book of Jubilees of the patriarch Enoch: “.17. He was the first one from among the children of men that are born on the earth to learn writing and knowledge and wisdom. 18. And he wrote the signs of heaven according to the order of their months in a book, that the sons of men might know the time of the year according to their separate months. 19. He was the first to write a testimony, and he testified to the children of men concerning 14 the generations of the earth, and explained the weeks of the jubilees, and made known to them the days of the years, and arranged the months and explained the sabbaths of the years as we made them known to him. 20. And what was and what will be he saw in a vision of the night in a dream, and as it will happen to the children of men in their generations until the day of judgment; he saw and learned every thing and wrote it as a testimony and laid the testimony on the earth over all the children of men and for their generations” (Jub.4:17-20). The Holy Scriptures tell us, “Enoch lived 65 years, and begat Methuselah. After he begot Methuselah, Enoch walked with God 300 years, and had sons and daughters. So all the days of Enoch were 365 years. And Enoch walked with God; and he was not [found], for God took him” (Gen.5:21-24). Enoch “walked with God.” This means that he OBEYED God and kept His commandments, and worshipped Him with his whole heart and mind. Note that his life span was “a day for a year” – 365 years. Enoch was the first one to learn writing, and who taught mankind how to write. Jubilees tells us what it means that God “took” Enoch. This does not mean that he did not die, for as Paul says, And as it is appointed to men to die once, but after this the judgment” (Heb.9:27). Paul also plainly wrote, “ By faith Enoch was taken away that he did not see death, and was not found, because God had taken him” – that is, he was not found by those looking for him, his enemies and persecutors – “these ALL DIED in faith [including Enoch!], not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them, embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth” (Heb.11:5, 13). God “took him.” This means that God transported or transferred Enoch to another place. Where did God take him? Jubilees tells us one place. “And then he was with the angels of God six years . . . and they showed him all things on earth and in heaven, the rule of the sun, and he wrote down all things” (Jub.4:22). The book of Jasher relates, “And the soul of Enoch was wrapped up in the instruction of the Lord, in knowledge and in understanding; and he wisely retired from the sons of men, and secreted himself from them many days” (Jasher 3:2). God then sent him forth to teach the sons of men “the way in which they should go and the work which they must accomplish to enter in the ways of God” (Jasher 3:4). “And all the sons of men then assembled to him . . . and Enoch reigned over the sons of men according to the word of the Lord . . . and the spirit of God was upon Enoch, and he taught all his men the wisdom of God and his ways, and the sons of men served the Lord all the days of Enoch, and they came to hear his wisdom” (v.7-8). All the kings, princes, and judges came to Enoch also, and he consented to reign over them. ‘And they assembled in all, one hundred and thirty kings and princes, and they made Enoch king over them and they were all under his power and command” (v.10). 15 As a result, “peace was throughout the earth during the life of Enoch” (v.11). There must be world peace, of course, for men to come together and build such edifices as the three great Pyramids of Giza, without the work being hindered or stopped! During that ante-Diluvian age, men lived to ripe old ages in the many hundreds of years (Gen.5). Methuselah, Enoch’s son, live to be 969 years of age! These men were highly sophisticated, intelligent, and possessed great understanding, wisdom, and abilities. It was them that God used to BUILD the three Pyramids of Giza, including the Great Pyramid! The Coptic Enoch The Arab scholar Masoudi who died in 967 A.D. left behind an incredible text concerning Enoch. He compiled old traditions concerning the Great Pyramid. One of the texts he left behind stated, “Surid . . . one of the kings of Egypt before the Flood, built two great pyramids.” In a dream 300 years before the Flood, he saw the earth being overthrown. The fixed stars wandered from their courses. He gathered 130 priests (remember Enoch’s 130 “kings and princes”), and they determined that “some great event was to take place.” Surid “ordered the pyramids to be built, and the predictions of the priests to be inscribed upon columns [pillars] and upon the large stones belonging to them . . .” (Origin and Significance of the Great Pyramid, p.103-104, quoted in Brazear, p.22). These Coptic traditions also mention that the pyramids were assigned a “guardian” – which would no doubt be symbolized by the Sphinx, the protector which has guarded the Giza plateau throughout the millennia. Both Surid and Enoch had the same vision – gathered the same number of rulers – ordered the Pyramids to be built – and deposited within them the writings, wisdom, science and achievements of their forefathers. Of course – for they are the same person! Other Arab historians concur. Abou Mahammed Al Hassan Ben Ahmed wrote, “The pyramids were ante-diluvian, and they resisted the force of the great flood” (Origin and Significance, ibid., p.117). The Greek “god” Hermes is another name for Enoch, who exhibited the same attributes as the ancient Egyptian “god” Set. Cicero wrote of Hermes, “Although a man, he was of great antiquity, and he built Hermopolis,” Greek meaning “city of Hermes.” Hermes was thus a builder. “Hermes, he understanding all things, who also saw the whole of things together, and having seen, considered them, and having considered them was powerful to explain and show them” – was no doubt the Greek version of Enoch! So says the “Divine Pymander,” a famous contribution of the Hermeneutical literature of Egypt circa 300 B.C. to 350 A.D. 16 Syncellus wrote that Hermes erected stone stellae before the Flood, containing arcane knowledge about astronomy. Hermes, also, according to the “Syrian chronicle” of Bar Hebraus, “invented letters, architecture, built cities, established laws and taught astronomy and the true worship of God” (Breshears, p.26). He calls Hermes the Enoch of Scripture. Hermes older Egyptian titles included Set, Thoth, and Imhotep. Set was the inventor of Astronomy, a form of Seth, the ancestor of the Sethites, and of Enoch. “An Altar to the LORD” Interestingly, in connection with Enoch, the book of Jubilees points out that God has four places on earth that are “sanctuaries” – “the garden of Eden and the hill east of it” [the Temple Mount and Mount of Olives], “the hill of Sinai” [in Arabia], “the hill of Zion” [the city of David], and “and this hill on which thou art to-day” (verse26). The fourth sanctuary, where Enoch offered a sacrifice to God, was “on the hill of the south” (ibid.). “South,” in Biblical terms, means the land of Egypt! Egypt is known in Scripture as the “king” or “kingdom” of the South (see our article on “Daniel 11 Revealed!”). As we will see, this refers to the plateau of Giza, in the middle of yet at the “border” of Egypt where God said, “In that day there shall be an ALTAR to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a PILLAR [pyramid] to the LORD at its border. And it shall be for a SIGN AND FOR A WITNESS to the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt” (Isaiah 19:19-20). These four locations, Jubilees says, “will be sanctified in the new creation for a sanctification of the earth: through it the earth will be sanctified from all its sin and its uncleanness to the generation of eternity” (Jub.4:27). Take note that a pyramid has four corners and four sides. This appears to circumscribe an area which is “holy” and dedicated to the Lord. By saying it will be sanctified shows that it is an actual place on earth today, but it is not complete, and will not be completed until the “new creation” or coming of the Messiah who will “restore all things” (Acts 3:19-21). Giza lies at the southern border of the “land of Goshen,” the Nile peninsula region of “Lower Egypt,” where the children of Israel dwelt. They were given the land of “Goshen” by the Egyptians as their territory and were protected there from the plagues which struck Egypt during the time of Moses. The Mysteries of Enoch Enoch was the greatest servant of God before the Flood. He was unique. He was very famous before the Flood, and was a great king. Says Jason Breshears, in The Lost Scriptures of Giza, “Many are the fragment traditions and historical annals that mention Enoch and his incredible life and accomplishments. Unfortunately today they are 17 relegated to myth and fables of moral foundation rather than historical. This problem is an old one. Many are the unusual texts surfacing in late antiquity that mention Enoch, writings outside the fold of accepted Scripture. In the Bible are only three passages that refer to him yet he is more popularly remembered by olden nations around the world than any other Old Testament personage. Traditional stories of Moses are almost exclusively retained by Hebraic writings and other Semitic peoples whereas Enoch and even Noah are found in the elder traditions of cultures spanning back thousands of years from the Asiatic people of the Far East to the distant west of early America. Enoch left a psychic imprint upon early man and his memory has not left us” (p.3). The patriarch Enoch was even known in the New World, the Western Hemisphere! Pyramid-building cultures thrived in early Mexico, before the Flood. An ancient city of stone that pre-dated the Flood was Tenochtitlan, which the Aztecs claim was built before their time by incredibly intelligent artisans who knew all the secrets of astronomy and the earth sciences. Tenochtitlan is a compound epithet meaning as follows: titlan = “to send a messenger,” and Tenoch = “the man” (te) and enoch – “Enoch,” the Biblical patriarch! Thus “Tenochtitlan” was “the messenger Enoch” – a man sent from God to teach mankind God’s ways and laws. The “Pillar of Enoch” According to the Egyptian “Book of the Dead,” the Great Pyramid is designated as the ‘Pillar of Enoch.” Now Enoch was born in 3382 B.C., 622 years after Adam. “Now all the days of Enoch were 365 years. And Enoch walked with God; and he was not [found], for God took him [someplace else]” (Gen.5:23-24). This means Enoch lived from 3382 to 2917 B.C., before God took him elsewhere (we are not told where) but his chronology stops in 2917 B.C. Did God take him to Egypt, to build the Great Pyramid and superintend its construction? Did he take him to the New World to begin pyramid structures in the region of Mexico and Central America? The ancient ancestors of the Mayas have traditions of a white Quetzalcoatl or teacher of righteousness. The Mayan calendar, 5125 years in length, ends in 2012 A.D. and began in 3114 B.C. This was the time of Enoch. There is no statement that Enoch “died” or went to “heaven” when God “took him.” It appears he was removed from one location on the earth to another, to complete God’s Work for him to accomplish. Interestingly, Enoch lived “365 years” before his departure for parts unknown. The signature number in the construction of the Great Pyramid is the solar year of 365 days! Remember, too, that the average age of the antediluvian patriarchs was on the order of 800-900 years. Methuselah lived 969 years! Enoch could well have returned from his long sojourn elsewhere to build the Great Pyramid, after having been instructed by God as to its dimensions and requirements. The fact that the Great Pyramid was built by a true worshipper of God is clear from the evidence that there is absolutely NO PAGAN idolatrous markings or symbolism carved or painted upon its surface areas. The total absence of such markings, 18 in a land replete with pagan symbols and themes, is mute testimony that someone else other than pagan Egyptians built the marvelous edifice. Egypt at the time was a hot-bed of idolatry. Their false religion was in full sway when Cheops was born. Statues of gods and goddesses were everywhere. Temples, tombs, and monuments were loaded with idolatrous emblems. Yet in the midst of all that, “there has never been found one ancient inscription or slightest sign of Egypt’s idolatry! In the center of greatest impurity, the Great Pyramid stands without spot, blemish or remotest taint of the surrounding flood of abominations – like the incarnate Son of God, sinless in a world of sinners” (Rippert, p.69). Israel and Pyramids Josephus tells us that in later generations, after the Flood, the nation of Israel, while held captive by the Egyptians, were compelled to build pyramids for them. We read: “Now it happened that the Egyptians grew delicate and lazy, as to painstaking; and gave themselves up to other pleasures, and in particular to the love of gain. They also became very ill affected towards the Hebrews, as touched with envy at their prosperity; for when they saw how the nation of the Israelites flourished, and were become eminent already in plenty of wealth, which they had acquired by their virtue and natural love of labour, they thought their increase was to their own detriment; and having, in length of time, forgotten the benefits they had received from Joseph, particularly the crown being now come into another family, they became very abusive to the Israelites, and contrived many ways of afflicting them; for they enjoined them to cut a great number of channels for the river, and to build walls for their cities and ramparts, that they might restrain the river, and hinder its waters from stagnating, upon its running over its own banks: they set them also to build pyramids, and by all this wore them out; and forced them to learn all sorts of mechanical arts, and to accustom themselves to hard labour. And four hundred years did they spend under these afflictions; for they strove one against the other which should get the mastery, the Egyptians desiring to destroy the Israelites by these labours, and the Israelites desiring to hold out to the end under them” (Antiquities, book 2, 9, 1). These were lesser pyramids, after the pattern of the Great Pyramid, and this was during the Middle Kingdom of Egypt, during the time of Jacob and Joseph and their children. – roughly 1700-1500 B.C. This was about 1,000 years after the Deluge. Why did the Egyptians put the Israelites to work building the later pyramids? Was it because they knew that it was their ancestors who built the original, greatest pyramids? Why Built? Why was the Great Pyramid built? Arab writers from early times associated the pyramids with the Biblical narrative of the Flood. According to their traditions, the pyramids were built as a result of a dream to serve as repositories of knowledge, to pro- tect all the science and wisdom of the Egyptians which otherwise would be lost. 19 Writes Peter Tompkins in Secrets of the Great Pyramid: “The most ancient tradition about the Great Pyramid is that it was erected to memorialize a tremendous cataclysm in the planetary system which affected the globe with fire and flooding.” He continues: “Arab authors recount that the pyramids were built before the deluge by a king who had a vision that the world would be turned upside down, and that the stars would fall from the sky. According to these Arab sources, the king placed in the Pyramids accounts of all he had learned from the wisest men of the times, including the secrets of astronomy, complete with tables of the stars, geometry, and physics, treatises on precious stones, and certain machines, including celestial spheres and terrestrial globes. They also speak of ‘malleable glass’” (p.217). The greatest “deluge” in human history which would fulfill this prediction was the Noachian Flood! The earliest Jewish report is in Josephus, who says the Sethites were inventors of a wisdom which dealt with celestial bodies and their order in the heavens, and that to preserve their wisdom for all mankind they built two monuments – one brick, the other stone – the stone one being extant in Egypt in Josephus’ time. Josephus relates in Antiquities of the Jews: “Now, Adam, who was the first man, and made out of the earth, (for our discourse must now be about him,) after Abel was slain, and Cain fled away on account of his murder, was solicitous for posterity, and had a. vehement desire of children, he being two hundred and thirty years old; after which time he lived other seven hundred, and then died. He had indeed many other children, but Seth in particular. As for the rest, it would be tedious to name them; I will therefore only endeavour to give an account of those that proceeded from Seth. “Now this Seth, when he was brought up, and came to those years in which he could discern what was good, became a virtuous man. and as he was himself of an excellent character, so did he leave children behind him who imitated his virtues. All these proved to be of good dispositions. They also inhabited the same country without dissensions, and in a happy condition, without any misfortunes falling upon them, till they died. “They also were the inventors of that peculiar sort of wisdom which is concerned with the heavenly bodies and their order. And that their inventions might not be lost before they were sufficiently known, upon Adam’s prediction that the world was to be DESTROYED at one time by the force of fire, and at another time by the.violence and quantity of water, THEY MADE TWO PILLARS; the one of brick, the other of STONE: they inscribed their discoveries on them both, that in case the pillar of brick should be destroyed by the flood, the pillar of stone might remain, and exhibit those discoveries to mankind; and also inform them that there was another pillar of brick erected by them. Now this remains in the land of Siriad to this day” (Antiquities, book 1, chapter 2, section 3). 20
