"Now when Jesus was born to Bethlehem of Judaea in the time of King Herod, behold there were ways of East to Jerusalem, saying, where is the newborn king of the Jews, we have seen his star in the east and are come to worship him. " Matthew Chapter 2, Bible
Like so many things I have experienced in India, was absolutely bizarre, and this Christmas is anything but normal. For, as about 2000 years ago, have two white / black dog and a way from the East [here India] west [ Rajasthan ] gewannt, following the stars, looking for a new king. What is the evidence, how, where and with whom was celebrated and the outcome's after the jump!
As I pull myself from time to time scholarly shoes , I would like to take this opportunity with one of my favorite topics, the infinite vastness of space and time contribute together with a theological background, something to the general education. For those who do not believe in coincidences, nothing in the Bible on the hat or just admire [nice] pictures do the I refer to the end of this blogger. For all other eyes open and "mitmeißeln"
on 17.12.1603 has Johannes Keppler [astronomer] a conjunction [two planets seem to come extremely close] Jupiter [King symbol] and Saturn [protection] icon in the constellation Pisces, which is a sign of the West Country (then Israel), observed and calculated, if and when this happened once before. Because as an astronomer and polymath, he was aware of a rabbi [Jewish teacher] - recording, which described this in the past. Today's Christmas Carol! His result, which called into question by all scholars of his time and was considered untenable, was, in year 7 BC (7 BC), there were three times at such a planetary construction. But in 1925 discovering a German archaeologist named Paul wrote a bill in cuneiform Record of which notes astronomical school of astrologers of Babylon, contained the confirmed Keppler statements.
But what exactly happened then? On 07/02/2007 BC was described this conjunction for about two hours the first time to see and the scholars were given the above-described meanings to the conclusion that a new king in Jerusalem will be born.
On 05/29/2007 BC was this combination again, and significantly more visible. Since it was summer and a trip but would thus have been too hot, I can confirm in India, the three scholars have freed until BC 3:10:07 west. Addition was the third of October, a particular date, namely, Yom Kippur (Jewish Day of Atonement ). There are three made their way to spare no expense or effort from the east, mounted on camels through the desert, the stars on a certain date following the west. Anyone noticing any similarities (two whites, according to camels across the Thar Desert, west of Bikaner, under the stars at a particular time) that I can help further. Only we were only two days and 2,000 years ago was needed for the route Babylon to Jerusalem just two months so that the scholars reached the end of November, the West Country. But when, then, is the new king born and more importantly, when we can finally expect the next year our Christmas presents? Exactly on December 4 at 8:30 pm ! How do I get it? Quite simply, replicas of Jerusalem have shown that the BC 4:12:07 at 20:30 of the "star" of Bethlehem shone exactly and at the end of a road that reaches exactly from north to south, over a house to "stand" came. If you're thinking it just a hoax, why have I wasted my precious time again only with this blog, the "obvious" I like my sources. And thus is to explain why the local businessmen in October each year, the golden and silvery chocolate Santas and gingerbread offer for sale. Not, as everyone would have thought to sell more quickly over a longer time, which would lead to greater profits? No! Just as Copernicus then they simply have recognized much earlier that our era as well as the Christmas is much more likely.
The Indians have also put off yet again this now and continue to celebrate on December 25 of each year, their Christmas celebration. What is more the accompanying commercialization, as to be liable to the tradition and faith, however.
For all the other readers, three camels, three camel drivers and Ben, myself and a stray dog set off on 24.12.2009 for three days in the desert, to experience MORE to make more and more of the otherwise "ordinary" Christmas - just once everything else - to make.
The fact that we got more and more food than we really wanted, as our camel Walas of the English were hardly powerful, and always "Yes " understood, we introduce the word "MORE" Thus, for everything that we wanted more or not, should be a realization.
course, it may not many (MORE) moments and experiences of a camel safari , the sunsets, the life with the other from a distance and in the zoo admired animals, riding with and without a saddle and the related case the "decorate" already in Australia and already forgotten "final frontier" a desert and steppe, the obligatory sleep by the open stars and nachhaschen shooting star, and the search for and an appropriate Christmas tree not remain unmentioned.
But as so often speak, pictures more than most words. Many greetings and a happy and healthy new year 2010 (AD).
