Relationships Between Bible Symbolisms And Calendar Adjustments
I must once again call your attention to an issue that I raised in Book Two concerning prophecy.
Witness my quote from Book Two:
“Ancient Mythology was the rendering of scientific astronomy in a mythological format. Mythology symbolizes the movements of the heavenly bodies within the cosmos. Astronomy deals with charting the cycles of all the entities within the cosmos. The Prophecy that prevails in Mythology and religion is a result of this charting. Of course a Prophecy, when delivered in a personified religious format, seems to be the miraculous foretelling of human events. But, in it’s Original form; the Prophecy did not pertain to future human activity. The Prophecy pertained to the future movements of celestial entities.”
I must also reiterate – The bible is a Registry of recorded astronomical phenomena written in a mythological format. The understanding of this One Vital Point is the Key to the proper deciphering of biblical symbolism. The bible (a book of astronomical symbolism) deals with the recording of astronomical cycles and the Predictions of the reoccurrence of these cycles, also the evolution of major cycles generated by minor cycles. The consequences or purpose of all this is to operate and preserve a System of progressive Calendrical adjustments throughout time.
The activity of correlating Time Cycles always produces fractions. The natural cycles of the elements within the cosmos such as the moon, sun, the equinoxes and solstices, sequences of eclipses, revolutions of the planets, comets and all such astronomical activity occur at intervals that cannot be reduced to whole numbers; hence, there is always the need for the Astronomers (Priesthood, Biblical Editors) to continually update and adjust their calculations, as Time marches on.
The Ancients developed a system that recorded some cycles as whole numbers, without regard to the fractions, and then at predictable intervals they would adjust their calculations to another whole number of a greater cycle that was closer to accuracy. For example, although our year is 365 ¼ days long – we disregard the fraction, but at intervals of 4 years we add a whole number (day) and this brings us closer to accuracy in our time keeping.
But actually this adjustment is not accurate; it is simply closer to accuracy. The actual year is 365.242199 days long, so 4 times this number produces 1460.968796. So by adding a whole number to our calendar we merely reduce the error to a smaller fraction i.e. 031204 days instead of .242199 days.
However, with every 4 years passing (when we make this adjustment), we are adding incrementally to our error so that eventually the smaller error will exceed the larger error – And it is this Type of problem that influenced the Priesthood (biblical Editors) to invent a System of Prophecy that would enable them to convey instructions (for Calendrical adjustments) to succeeding Generations (of the Initiated).
But before I connect this to biblical prophecy, I would like to interject this point about Festivals. One of the ways that the Sacerdotal class would handle the problem of calibrating the calendar to a larger cycle, in order to reduce the incremental discrepancies caused by the periodic adjustments of minor cycles, was this: They would calculate the date when these smaller fractions would accumulate to a whole number (day) which might be 120 years, 400 years, 532 years, 1460 years or whatever – and they would designate that time (end of the cycle) as a day of celebration, commemorating some Deity or Event, and include this pronouncement in their writings (scriptures) and/or folklore. So when that day arrived the Common people would take to the streets in gaiety and celebration of some mythological fancy, while the Priesthood would slink into their Chambers and Observatories – getting on with their work of proper Timekeeping.
The predictions and prophecies about an expected Savior, Avenger, Avatar or divine Messenger and the like were all coded messages sent out, by the Priesthood, to the Initiated and their descendants. This mythology was taken literally by the Common people but the Initiates knew better. Throughout the bible we are warned about a Coming Savior and a dreaded Day of Judgment or a Glorious Day of Deliverance. All of these, the expected Savior, Judgment Day and/or Deliverance and the like are esoteric symbolisms related to adjustments in Timekeeping.
As I explained above, All adjustments to the calendar (Time Keeping) are temporary and inexact, and generate the need for further adjustments – at times, far into the distant future. Some cycles run into thousands of years. So the Priesthood had to develop a method of passing the Word (instructions for future Calendrical adjustments) to succeeding Generations; Generations that would come to life hundreds or thousands of years into the future.
The Method that the Ancients used was to predict the Coming of a Savior at some distant point in time. The Mission of the Savior would be to bring Justice to the World, To Deliver humanity from Bondage, To Chastise people for their Sins, To Destroy the Transgressors, To Mediate and Reconcile the Enmity and Hatred among peoples. This is Coded Language used to instruct succeeding Generations (within the circle of the Initiates) as to When they must make adjustments to the Calendar. The Mission of the Savior concerns Justice, Deliverance, Transgression, Mediation, Chastisement. All of these Terms relate to the Correction of Errors, but not errors in ones social habits as the uninitiated think – but rather Errors in mathematical computations that govern proper Time Keeping.
We have already learned, from what I wrote above, that our method of timekeeping (calendar) requires periodic adjustments. The Transgressions that the Savior will come to remedy are not social transgressions but rather mathematical transgressions. The Savior shall Mediate (reconcile) the Errors of computation, He shall make Judgment on the Errors in Time keeping, He shall Destroy the Wrong Doers (Numbers) and replace them with correct Numbers. I could go on and on. The Savior actually refers to the Priesthood of the Generation to which the prophecy is directed. The Priesthood (biblical Editors) is the actual Savior that continually Edits and Re-
The Coming Savior is often referred to as a Mediator, Judge, Avenger, Destroyer, Chastiser, Emancipator. All of these words have obvious social implications, but in fact the words are codes that indicate corrections and adjustments to the mathematical computations that govern correct timekeeping. The year and date that the Savior is destined to arrive is Always pegged to the year and date when the calendar must be Updated (Judged, Corrected, Mediated, etc).
Witness this Definition from the Dictionary.com:
of communication between two contracting parties. In this sense Moses is called a mediator in Gal. 3:19. Christ is the one and only mediator between God and man (1 Tim. 2:5; Heb. 8:6; 9:15; 12:24). He makes reconciliation between God and man by his all-

Research the definitions of these words; Mediator, Deliverance, Judgment and other words that commonly refer to a Savior or his actions and I am sure you will agree that the terms are applicable to the correction of mathematical Errors. The biblical Editors have used these Terms metaphorically to pass coded messages between each other throughout thousands of years. This is my Contention, and I think that the facts and Reason support this conclusion better than the alternatives.
Much of this book deals with the deciphering of Calendrical astronomical symbolism that reaffirms this premise.
The primary underlying function of many primitive Rituals, Feast Days, and Customs was Time Tracking, that is to say, tracking of seasonal transitions. This was of obvious importance to planting and harvesting. Time Tracking is the most dominant theme of all within biblical mythology, which is why all religious holidays hover around periods of seasonal transition or agriculturally associated affairs.
