The name-sake of the Phoenicians, that is 'Pheonix , the bird represents the Snow of the Lebanese Mountains, they melt and feed the rivers/stream and they regenerate in the winter, so a cycle, that is the origin of the Phoenix
There is a river in Lebanon called River Abraham , the Snow melts but is mixes with the Red-clay and turns the river red, alternatively Perseus slays Cetus and it's blood drips into the river, turning it red, Cetus is the name of the Whale that swallowed Jonah (white-dove) and spat it out upon the dry land , same as Noah ejecting a White-dove that found the dry-land . The 'Ark of Noah, a Vessel or a Cup , or a Grail of sort, same as Pandora's Box or Moses/Perseus chest, that was released into the River. The narratives in the Bible simply recycle the same archetypal theme of the Phoenix. Edited by Lee - 03-Oct-2017 at 13:02 |

My point is that throughout the presented history of Israel there has been an under-emphasised conflict between the Tribes of Rachel and the Tribes of Leah. Notice in your list the noticeable absence of representatives from the Tribes of Reuben and Simeon - the two eldest children of Jacob. Throughout the narratives of the Old Testament it is nearly always a younger child who is the chosen one to succeed (Seth, Shem, Heber, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, etc...). Levi and Judah (the two younger of Leah's first birth period - and there is some theory that she only had these four sons; the other two, and the handmaid births, being later inventions to assimilate non-Hebrew tribes into the clan) were chosen by Jacob's god (the Elohim) to be the spiritual and temporal leaders of Israel. But Rachel's sons were the truly youngest, and possessed Rachel's gods (the Teraphim). Plus Benjamin's birth could be seen as extra special (through the circumstances I have already noted) in uniting together the gods of Rachel with the gods of Jacob.
As to the the 'teraphim', they were handed down to the tribes of Rachel, probably the Tribe of Benjamin. In the Book of Judges a new teraphim was created within the Tribe of Ephraim (Rachel), but this was taken away by the Tribe of Dan (Rachel's handmaid), who kept it until the Captivity. Rachel's original teraphim might have been handed down through the Tribe of Benjamin to King Saul, who passed it to his daughter when she married David from the Tribe of Judah (and note that she was the youngest daughter of Saul, whilst David was the youngest son of Jesse). The teraphim were used to help David escape from Saul's assassins. As I suggested, it was possibly a human skull, which explains the ruse used by David's wife. The grail is not the Ark. The Ark is Elohim. The Grail is Teraphim. Elohim is male (Jacob, Moses, David, Jesus). Teraphim is female (Rachel, Micah's mother, Michal the wife of David, Mary Magdalene).

So what is the point?
Judah (Leah) {Onan Zerah Caleb Kenaz Othniel Bethlehem David "Herod" Jesus Judas TWJ} Levi (Leah) {Moses Aaron Eli Maccabees JohnBaptist PopeJoan} Issachar (Leah) {Tola Iscariot} Zebulun ("Leah") {Barak? Elon Capernaum} Dinah (Leah) {Job} Asher ("Leah") {Serach Anna} Ephraim/Joseph (Rachel) {Ephratah Joshua Deborah/bee/word Tola Ibzan Abdon Micah Samuel Messiah-ben-Joseph} Joseph (Rachel) {TWJ} Manasseh/Joseph (Rachel) {Machir Gilead Gideon Abimelech Jair Jephthah Lehi/Nephi} Naphtali (Bilhah / "Rachel") {Barak Capernaum} Dan (Bilhah / "Rachel") {Samson Daniel HaDani Antichrist} Benjamin (Rachel) {Ehud Saul Mordechai Paul "MaryMagdalene" BenHur BenKenobi} uncertain (not stated, possibly Benjamin) {Shamgar} Are you saying that the Grail (or the Ark) is or was in Bethlehem (like Eucharistus)?

Joseph and Benjamin were full brothers, and Ephraim and Manasseh were the sons of Joseph. These three tribes of Israel - Benjamin, Ephraim and Manasseh - are the Tribes of Rachel. Their descendants make up a single sub-group within the tribes of Israel. The leader of Israel into the promised land was a descendant of Rachel (Joshua). Most of the Judges pre-monarchy were descendants of Rachel (Ehud, Shamgar, Deborah, Gideon, Abimelech, Jair, Jephthah, Ibzan, Abdon) or of her handmaid, Bilhah (Barak and Samson). The first King of Israel (Saul) was descended from Rachel.
Joseph and Benjamin were both Jacob/Israel's beloved sons, and held more dear than his other children. They were also his youngest sons. And yet paradoxically 'Joseph' is usually an aged man - the father of Jesus; the man of Arimathea; the wandering Jew - all meant to be very old. In a similar way Jacob blessed the younger son of Joseph (Ephraim) over his elder brother (Manasseh), making the younger more senior.

The true blood is Yeshua (& Jews (& Shem)).
Not sure what your code is here. Jewish? Popish? BI? Aryan? Atlantean? Masonic? Except that seem to be 2 or 3 rival lines of Ben, Joe, Juda. I.e. not sure who does Benjamin represent (and who does Joseph represent)? BIs & Mormons have America as Manasseh. Jose & Benj ~ WRE/Catholic/Gayropa & ERE/Orthodox/Russia? or "Rome vs Jewish"? EU & US? US & Russia? White Pope & Coptic pope? HRE & Pope/Welf? AE vs WH? AE vs Historum? "followers of jesus versus nephilim (leading families of us & world)"? Beast vs harlot? Isis vs EU/US? Rome vs Templars/Masons? Benjamin - Paul - pope? Benjamin - wolf - Rome / Welf? Joseph ~ Messiah ben Joseph? Pharaoh(s)/god(s) ~ Pope(s)/"god(s)"? Joseph son Jacob ~ Joseph father Jesus & Joseph of Arimathea & Cartaphilus (TWJ)? Benjamin accused of stealing cup - Templars stopped from possibly stealing ark from Ethiopia? Touching private parts recalls Pope (Joan)? i vaguely recall some Classical match? Laban ~ Labarum? grail = cup = harlot Bablyon [Rome] holding cup? Joseph = Cartaphilus ~ Cardinal (& Janus)? [or Carthage?] grail = blood of jesus/christ = blood of saints? Edited by Arthur-Robin - 06-Jul-2017 at 06:34 |

Rachel means "ewe". She died when Benjamin was born.
When Joseph blessed his sons, he said of Benjamin - “Benjamin is a ravenous wolf; in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night he shall divide the spoil.”
So at the start of his life (the morning), Benjamin consumed the life of (devoured) his mother (the ewe/prey). At night (at the end of his life, or at the end of this Tribe of Israel?) he shall divide (share out) the spoil (his inheritance). The question is - was this inheritance the bloodline/sacred cup, and who was to share in it? Edited by .Sidney - 03-Jul-2017 at 17:44 |

The Benjamin and Joseph's cup is another good interesting one thanks. Do you have any source or historical basis for the rest though? Is "Rachel" linked with the princesses (Sara, Repanse, Helen, etc) we linked in the post a couple of posts ago? Gets abit too rude at the end.

The other cupbearer in Joseph's story is Benjamin, his only full brother and, like Joseph, the beloved son of Israel/Jacob. The story in Genesis is that Joseph (as Lord of Egypt) secreted his silver cup in Benjamin's baggage, forcing Benjamin to become his slave, but also leading Joseph to reveal his true self to his brothers. In effect Joseph, by passing his silver cup (which he used at formal banquets and in divination) to Benjamin, was making Benjamin his cupbearer. Joseph and Benjamin were the children of Rachel, the younger daughter of Laban. Joseph and his half brothers were born in Laban's household, where Jacob was living in servitude. When Jacob secretly left Laban's household with his family, Laban pursued claiming that someone had stolen his 'teraphim'. The guilty party was Rachel, who concealed her theft by sitting on the objects and claiming that she was menstruating and so could not stand up! What 'teraphim' really were is a bit of a mystery. Laban viewed them as 'his gods' and they were used in divination, but some have suggested that they were ancestral bones, in particular the skull - and skulls are very easily made into drinking vessels! So we have an image here of Rachel bleeding into a skull-cup; a cup which she conceals and might well have passed onto her sons (Joseph and Benjamin). Joseph symbolically passes his concealed cup to his brother Benjamin, and Benjamin is supposedly the ancestor to Mary Magdalene who some claim is herself the 'Holy Grail' (as the carrier of the bloodline of Jesus). There has always been a kind of rivalry between the Tribes of Benjamin and Judah over the rulership of God's people. Jerusalem, God's Holy City, was right on the border territory between the lands of Judah and Benjamin, and was apportioned to the Benjamites. Benjamin himself was supposedly born in Bethlehem (Ephrath in Bethel), a significant place also for King David and Jesus. King Saul (Tribe of Benjamin) was the first Holy appointed King of Israel, but he was usurped by David (Tribe of Judah). Earlier Judges of Israel seemed to swap between being descendents of Judah and descendants of Benjamin or his full brother Joseph. Even David's descendant, Jesus, had his teachings overwhelmed by the interpretations given to them by St.Paul (a Benjaminite)! Benjamin's conception is also an interesting episode. Whilst it is not made explicit, Rachel (she of the bleeding cup) only conceived Benjamin after Jacob had been renamed 'Israel', following an episode where he wrestled with an angel (or God) and had been touched by this opponent on the inner thigh (his genitals). So God touched Jacob's genitals, who then impregnated Rachel, who then conceived Benjamin! Rachel died giving birth to this child sprung from blessed genitals and holy blood, and named him Ben-oni - 'son of vigour'. 'Oni' has the same meaning as 'Onan', that son of Judah who was famous for his masturbating - so 'oni' probably refers specifically to sexual vigour. Edited by .Sidney - 27-Jun-2017 at 15:45 |

Good one Sid, kick myself i don't think i thought of that (the bad tap water every meal doesn't help me). True enough, though there are more than one threads & cups interwoven in. Harlot holding cup can't quite be same as cup of Joseph (though Christ was crucified by Romans).
Of course the cup bearer is blood of the lamb of God, while the baker is the law/works. Just like Abel & Cain. So we have 4 Josephs: Joseph son of Jacob, Joseph step father of Jesus, Joseph of Arimathea, and Joseph Cartaphilus (Wandering Jew?) Do you think it might connect with Ark in Ethiopia, since Joseph story is in Egypt next door? There is another cup in sons of noah picture in wikipedia article on sons of noah / 70 nations, similar to cup in 3 magi picture. |

The myth of the cup goes back to the story of Joseph in Pharaoh's prison
Genesis 40; 9-13 So the chief cupbearer told Joseph his dream. He said to him, “In my dream I saw a vine in front of me, and on the vine were three branches. As soon as it budded, it blossomed, and its clusters ripened into grapes. Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes, squeezed them into Pharaoh’s cup and put the cup in his hand.” “This is what it means,” Joseph said to him. “The three branches are three days. Within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your position, and you will put Pharaoh’s cup in his hand, just as you used to do when you were his cupbearer. Pharaoh = God cupbearer = Jesus 3 days in prison = 3 days in the grave |

Sorry i found out i made stupid dumb mistake (we can "thank" the water
poisoners for all such). Tentative Correction (any/all could still be
wrong) :
Merovee/Merovech/Merovingian (France) = Menelik (= Manasseh?) or Meropius or Meroe (Ethiopia) or Melchizedek? Pharamond (France) = Pharaoh or Frumentius (Ethiopia)? [Aetius/Aegidius = Aedesius (Ethiopia)?] Priory of Sion (1152/78) = Prester John (1145/65/77)? or St Mary of Zion (in Axum the "New Jerusalem/Zion", in Ethiopia the "New Zion/Israel")? Grail cup caught drops of Jesus blood = gomer shallow bowl in which sacrifice blood collected (Tana/Ethiopia)? Mary Magdalene = Makeda (Q of Sheba)? Sara "princess" = princess Scota = princess Rapanse de Schoye = princess Sophie? [Joseph of Aramathea ~ AbbaSalama/Frumentius? &/or Athanasius? or Amharic?] "The Golden Ark of The Covenant" ~ The GAOTU? ?galathea/galathes ~ Gaythelos/Gaodhal/Gaedel_Glas ~ Galawdewos/Claudius ~ Galahad? ?S(c)ion ~ Scone ~ Scota ~ Shoa ~ Schoye (~ Sheba/South) ~ Sophie/Sophia? [?Shangri-la =] SanGrail/Sangreal "stone" (or Mary) = "a rock on which Mary rested on her journey back from Egypt"* / "a large stratum of rock" (olivine-bearing basalt, Tana Kirkos island, lake Tana/Tsana/Sana Hayk) = Ark was on Tana Kirkos. [* Possibly compare 'St Mary on the Rock' of Fife which is analogous to St Mary in Castro of Dover which matches Mary of fort Guinnion?] Sara ~ Sarras ~ Zarragossa ~ Zara Yaqob (Tana)? Plus, one possible Irish/Scottish/Jacobite/Masonic [contrived] (direct) link with "blood line of Jesus": "Crimson/Red Branch" (Irish/Scottish) = "holy blood line of Jesus" = sangreal = holy grail caught drops of Jesus' blood.

I hadn't missed the theories of Jesus/Yeshua (or James) & Mary & Sara (or Barabbas) & Merovingians & Priory of Sion of the likes of Baigent/Lincoln/Leigh &/or Brown, i just thought/felt it was not very strong/convincing evidence theory as regards the Grail.
The bible is condisered to imply that Yeshua was the son of God and celebate and that he was crucified and then ascended to heaven (after saying "don't touch/cling-to me" to Mary M.) I have indeed heard it is true that eunuchs were not looked on favourably in Jewish culture. (I wish God had ot me married by 30 years.) I had thought you might have meant something bit different like maybe Scottish/Irish, or Roman. (What i have been trying to do is to get to the real hidden grail thread or grails threads of history, the global elite, and biblical.) I did somewhat miss (the importance of) the Irish/Scottish/Masonic grail connection. lia fail "sacred stone" = (Liahona =) Holy Grail ("stone/emerald/golden") = Knights of Round Table = Eochaid "knight" = (Knights) Templars = Masons = Scots = princess Scot(i)a (dtr of Pharaoh Achenres) = princess Rapanse de Schoye/Joye (= Helen of Troy) = Queen of Sheba (= Rose of Sharon) = Ark of the Covenant (seat, Ethiopia) = 'Kingdom of the Ark' ("link between Egypt & Ireland") by Lorraine Evans [= Lorraine Cross? Troyes/Chartes?] However i can't find any (direct) link of Irish/Scottish grail with blood line of Jesus, except unless name James/Jacob(ite) of the Stuarts/Scots links with James brother of Jesus somehow? Aetius & Pharamond & Merovech/Merovingian (France) = Aedesius & Frumentius & Meropius or Meroe (Ethiopia)? And/or, Merovingian (France) = Syagrius/Sigonius or Aetius/Aegidius (Ile de France/Gaul, Roman)? |

I've never seen anything in the Bible that would have excluded Christ having children.
As he was a Jew, it would have been expected he marry by 30 years. AR, I'm surprised that you've missed this line of thought. The idea is that Jesus and Mary Magdalene were married and had children. The children or their descendants, went to S. France and founded the Merovingian Dynasty. The surrounding theories get into the Cathars, and the Templars. Check into the "hooked x" idea. Where I don't buy into the existence of the "Priory of Scion", the rest of it is difficult to dismiss out of hand. Edited by red clay - 06-Apr-2017 at 12:37 |

Interetsing, do you care to give/discuss any further info on that?
If bible is true then the real "Jesus"/Yeshua can't have had any physical children (though his brothers/sisters / cousins could have). This gives me two new entries: The "Jesus Christ" of Guinnion of Arthur may be Julius Caesar (who landed near Dover/Deal) = Arthurian = holy grail = sanreal "holy/royal blood" = blood line of Jesus (or his brother/cousin) = the Roman "Jesus" is either Zeus or Julius Caesar or Augustus Caesar or Claudius (since the 1st 40+ "popes" really match the Roman emperors list) = Genuissa/Gwenwisa daughter of Caesar or of Claudius = Ambrosius/Aurelius wore purple (= Aurelius is Roman name meaning "golden, fine, excellent") = Arthur was "emperor" and took "Rome". Arthurian holy grail = sanreal "holy/royal blood" = blood line of Jesus (or his brother/cousin) = the Roman "Jesus" is either Zeus or Julius Caesar or Augustus Caesar or Claudius (since the 1st 40+ "popes" really match the Roman emperors list) = Welsh Tudors descs of "David" = Britons decs of Trojan Brutus = Romans decs of Trojan Aeneas = "Trojan war time of Samson" (Jerome) = "Brutus time of Eli" (Geoff of Monmouth) = Rapanse de Schoye matches Helen of Troy and/or Queen of Sheba (and/or Rose of Sharon)?

There are many who believe the grail is a reference to the blood line of Christ and not a cup. I'm one of those. |

It looks like Hancock's grail/ark theory is right.
Helen of Troy = Repanse/Rapanse de Joye/Shoye (= Queen of Sheba?) Menelaus = Menelik Thon(is) = (Prester) John Egypt/Mediterranean = Ethiopia Troy = Troyes [Paris (Troy)&/or Perceval &/or Feirifez = Paris (France)?] [2 grails (Euro & Ethiop), 'Adoration of the Magi', Al Durer 1471-1528] [Gala-had ~ Gra-ham(_Hancock)?] However, there are clearly at least two or more original grails in the overall Holy Grail/Chalice cycle. |

I am not sure whether i would have been allowed to start a new topic/thread? on this since i don't like idea of this being lost/hidden by pages posts before & after, but no matter.
There is also another topic http://www.allempires.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=19798 (AE has an article on the HG too at http://www.allempires.com/article/index.php?q=The_Holy_Grail_Sacred_Cup_or_Female_Prophet .) I tried posting on hancock forum yesterday but said was moderated and hasn't been approved apparently? http://grahamhancock.com/phorum/read.php?1,257991 I have several threads and leads for the Grail which i have yet to write properly on. In this post i am only touching on just two.

NZ's mandatory fluoridation is not fair because it only forces it on the disadvantaged/some and not on the advantaged/everyone.

There can be no doubt the early Christian Church took the established religious
stories of The many stories of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table usually say the knight who found the Holy Grail was Sir Percival. His mother had brought him up in a lonely forest to prevent him from following his father who ran away from his family. Without a father and ignorant of the ways of world Parsifal grew. Then one day he saw some knights, and rode off with them to become a knight of the Grail. For all the Arthur fans there is more than one story and
told in many ways across The chosen knights knew they would never again see each
other or their beloved King again yet left on the quest immediately. The years
passed and Camelot became more desolate. He lived on but Camelot the beautiful
wasted away, the wind howled through the barren trees of the surrounding
wasteland. Sometimes a peasant would wander into the King's dusty bedchamber to
find a lonely old man inquiring about the Grail Knights. When told of their
deaths, he crossed them off, one by one. He lost all hope when Sir Parsifal the Pure arrived, the youngest and most naive of them all. He told of the death of the last knight other than himself. Only the tarot fool, the joker in the pack had returned so the King decided to lay down and die. Parsifal tried comfort the sobbing man. The King just asked him for a cup of water and try and not trip up on the way back. All Parsifal could find was a chipped and discarded wooden bowl and He filled it from the water of a muddy spring. When Parsifal trickled water from the bowl onto the King's dying lips he came back to life and grabbed the bowl. Parsifal had found the Holy Grail, for it had been within reach all the time. Some say Arthur's body now lies in a hidden cave, with the
golden horn of justice by his side. When our planet is in danger by pollution
of earth, sky and water we need find that horn. With one blast upon it, Arthur
and his knights will rise again to battle against those who destroy the vital
mother essence of this world by their greed. |

A shaky interpretation, eh? Let's discuss shaky interpretation.
 Among the fathers who support the claim that Mary was of Davidic lineage, Irenaeus stands out. This is especially true in light of the fact that he answers your objection rather succinctly:
And when He says, "Hear, O house of David," He performed the part of one indicaring that He whom God promised David that He would raise up from the fruit of his belly (ventris) an eternal King, is the same who was born of the Virgin, herself of the lineage of David. For on this account also, He promised that the King should be "of the fruit of his belly," which was the appropriate [term to use with respect] to a virgin conceiving, and not "of the fruit of his loins," nor "of the fruit of his reins," which expression is appropriate to a generating man, and a woman conceiving by a man.
[Irenaeus, Adv. Haer., 3.21]
In essence, the fact that Mary was a virgin is what fulfilled 2 Sam 7: 12. Irenaeus continues:
In this promise, therefore, the Scripture excluded all virile influence; yet it certainly is not mentioned that He who was born was not from the will of man. But it has fixed and established "the fruit of the belly," that it might declare the generation of Him who should be [born] from the Virgin, as Elisabeth testified when filled with the Holy Ghost, saying to Mary, "Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy belly;" the Holy Ghost pointing out to those willing to hear, that the promise which God had made, of raising up a King from the fruit of [David's] belly, was fulfilled in the birth from the Virgin, that is, from Mary. Let those, therefore, who alter the passage of Isaiah thus, "Behold, a young woman shall conceive," and who will have Him to be Joseph's son, also alter the form of the promise which was given to David, when God promised him to raise up, from the fruit of his belly, the horn of Christ the King. But they did not understand, otherwise they would have presumed to alter even this passage also.
[Irenaeus, Adv. Haer., 3.21]
The orthodox position is wholly consistent. Other early witnesses to Mary's Davidic lineage include Tertullian, Eusebius, and Augustine. I'm afraid you will have to provide some examples if you feel that there was a large amount of debate among the fathers.
Absolutely correct.
You might want to make that examination a bit less cursory.
 If you read the entire document from which you took that excerpt, you would realize that the claim that the Son is begotten and the implicit reference to the Father as agennetos (unbegotten), in the context of Arius' letter, refers to their pre-temporal ontological characteristics. For the orthodox, the terms monogenis (only-begotten) and agennetos, refer to the etiological rather than the ontological properties of the first and second persons of the Trinity. Neither party, in using this language, is referring to the Incarnation, the human birth of Christ.
The issue is actually extraordinarily complex, and requires a fair bit of understanding of the context in which the Arians were making their claims. Arius believed that the Son had "subsisted before time, and before ages, as perfect God, only begotten and unchangeable, and that before He was begotten, or created, or purposed, or established, He was not." In the context of his letter, in which he was trying to explain his dispute with the orthodox to Eusebius, Arius' comments regarding generation cannot be taken to refer to His physical birth. Eusebius certainly didn't take Arius' comments as referring to the Virgin Mary, as his subsequent epistle to Paulinus--which is also extant--clearly shows. With the neo-Arians, it gets a bit trickier. If you wish, we could discuss them as well.
That said, while I remain unconvinced, I am not necessarily unable to be convinced. I haven't been able to find any reputable sources wherein it is asserted that the Arians denied the Virgin Birth, and I think it would be odd for them to do so, given that they accepted the same Scriptures. Still, their exegetical perspective often differed significantly from that of the orthodox. I guess that's an unnecessarily long way of saying that I am open to discussion on this point.

That's never a problem. Before conception the mother goes for a bath in the sacred river, in this case the Ganges and her virginity is restored. The Nile had the same reputation for restoring the maidenhead of the sacred mother.
