Notable in the precision of the Ballet of the heavens is the coordination of the various conjunctions to the Israelite/Jewish festival year. All the special days commanded by Jehovah of His People are accounted for. This in itself is fascinating, because if the conjunctions were a month or a half year earlier or later, then […]

Imagine two streams of events that after 1500 or so years coincide with unbelievable precision just when Jesus is born. The closest example of this that I can think of is the car assembly plant. A certain make and model’s windshield which had been manufactured elsewhere is placed in sequence among a line of windshields.

With Jonathan and David, we discover that the foundation of Covenant is

Jehovah defines His Glory in Exodus 33 and 34 as His goodness, Covenant, grace, mercy, Love, forgiveness and justice. Because these are qualities and not objects, what Moses sees when God shows him His Glory would have to be the history of Genesis and of the first part of Exodus. In Genesis in particular, Covenant
