1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:03,279
Speaker 1: The disclaimer to the fair season Karen's out there, Oh

2
00:00:03,399 --> 00:00:05,719
dare you? All guests on the show do not reflect

3
00:00:05,719 --> 00:00:09,320
the opinions of the hosting. The purpose of the show

4
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:11,759
is to have interesting conversations, stretch our minds and grow.

5
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:13,359
Speaker 2: We're not what we want.

6
00:00:14,199 --> 00:00:16,120
Speaker 1: If you were looking for an echo chamber, you were,

7
00:00:16,199 --> 00:00:18,160
and listener discretion aged.

8
00:00:22,039 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 3: Did you talk about extreme?

9
00:00:31,719 --> 00:00:34,719
Speaker 4: What is happening and what is up? Hold out your

10
00:00:34,799 --> 00:00:36,840
glass because we're about to feel it up.

11
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 2: All things continually lead back to serpents, dragons, fairies, nepheline,

12
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:43,479
and fallen angels.

13
00:00:43,679 --> 00:00:45,799
Speaker 5: In the distance looms a mystical mountain.

14
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 6: As Mike Heiser used to say, if it's in the

15
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,119
Bible and it's weird, it's probably important.

16
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 5: At its peak, a great fire burns, concealing the Prometheus lenses.

17
00:00:55,399 --> 00:00:59,479
Speaker 4: This development of this knowledge that's being talked about within

18
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:00,399
the mysteries.

19
00:01:00,399 --> 00:01:03,439
Speaker 5: An ancient artifact said to reveal the hidden truth within

20
00:01:03,479 --> 00:01:05,120
a deliberately darkened world.

21
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,680
Speaker 2: There is a hidden history that's been deliberately obscated from

22
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:08,560
the people's livil world.

23
00:01:08,719 --> 00:01:12,040
Speaker 5: Join us as we travel and explore the vast unknown.

24
00:01:12,519 --> 00:01:16,760
It's a hero's journey with dragons, to slay, damsels to save,

25
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,840
and innumerable treasures to hoard.

26
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:26,799
Speaker 4: Torches high the Smithsonian, they call wind of the Giant's belt,

27
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,599
would send their agents out to get it.

28
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:35,799
Speaker 5: But it takes courage to move forward, to move out

29
00:01:36,359 --> 00:01:39,040
of the shadows, out.

30
00:01:38,879 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 6: Of the unreality that we think of, this reality.

31
00:01:44,079 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 4: We are all on the hero's journey.

32
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 6: Mankind has been in contact with and influenced by extra terrestrials.

33
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,359
Speaker 4: Leave the citient mound of bull feathers out of it, you.

34
00:01:58,359 --> 00:02:03,159
Speaker 6: Know, look at it from a different perspected, different perspective pact.

35
00:02:11,439 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 4: Hey, what is happening? What is up old actual glass?

36
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,520
You know what time it is, as we're about to

37
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,280
field it up. Welcome to the Prometheus Lens Podcast, the

38
00:02:21,319 --> 00:02:25,240
place where the conversations they're always in a lightning. I'm

39
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,000
your host, justin here. We like to use the allegory

40
00:02:28,039 --> 00:02:34,039
of the Prometheus Lens to take a second look at everything. Hey,

41
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:35,879
if you guys are within the sound of my voice

42
00:02:35,879 --> 00:02:37,599
here in this recording, this means that you are an

43
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:42,280
all access pass holder and you missed out on the Man,

44
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:48,400
the myth, the legend, the walking, talking, living, breathing, walking Encyclopedia.

45
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,520
So you're having to just settle for just listening to

46
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,479
the reporting. I'll give you my condolences in advance, because

47
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,159
i'd already know I know the man. Well, this is

48
00:02:58,159 --> 00:03:01,840
gonna be a great conversation. But Derek, just thank you

49
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,879
for taking the time on this spooky Friday the thirteenth

50
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,719
to come and hang out with us tonight.

51
00:03:10,159 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 6: Happy to do it, brother, Always enjoy our conversations.

52
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 4: Oh definitely. Well, this is the opportunity for you guys

53
00:03:18,599 --> 00:03:24,319
to pick Derek's brain. Me and Derek conversate quite often,

54
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,120
so I don't want to take up the time. So

55
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,280
if you guys have any questions or anything that you

56
00:03:31,479 --> 00:03:34,319
want to pitch to Derek, I'm gonna go ahead and

57
00:03:34,319 --> 00:03:38,680
turn the floor over to the looks like at first.

58
00:03:38,439 --> 00:03:41,159
Speaker 6: We got some shout okay, okay, gotcha, gotcha?

59
00:03:42,759 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 4: All right, Well, I'll just lead off with one. Then

60
00:03:44,599 --> 00:03:48,120
I'll cut the ice the pump. Yeah, I'll prime it

61
00:03:48,199 --> 00:03:53,000
up here. Uh. I was watching some of the old films.

62
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,639
I actually bought that definitive collection of Joe Horn at

63
00:03:56,639 --> 00:03:58,639
that conference that we were at that go there for

64
00:03:59,599 --> 00:04:01,639
and was good on through some of those old films

65
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,120
and it's really cool to go back and see the

66
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:09,400
you know, the genesis of SkyWatch, and you guys had

67
00:04:09,479 --> 00:04:17,680
mentioned a study in New Guinea about someone had studied

68
00:04:17,759 --> 00:04:22,399
how they were cannib There was this cannibalistic tribe and

69
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,639
they done tests on their DNA and found that it

70
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:33,639
was changing their DNA on a German germline level. And

71
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,319
you just kind of just briefly just threw that out there,

72
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,319
you know, like it wouldn't a big thing because you

73
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,199
guys that knew all about it. I was just like,

74
00:04:41,439 --> 00:04:43,800
what I wanted to worry about this? Could you could

75
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,480
you elaborate a little bit on that?

76
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:46,519
Speaker 5: I wish I could.

77
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,519
Speaker 6: That's this is one that one of the things Sharon

78
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,000
and I have found over the years is that when

79
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,639
we go back and listen to our old stuff, because

80
00:04:52,639 --> 00:04:55,759
our podcasts began back in two thousand and five, so

81
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,600
we've got we've got content that goes back a long

82
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,800
long time, and we listened back some of those things

83
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:05,560
and we're sometimes surprised at what we've forgotten that we knew.

84
00:05:06,959 --> 00:05:09,720
This was probably something that Sharon tossed out there, because

85
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,519
this is really in her Her degree is in elector

86
00:05:12,519 --> 00:05:20,480
biology with with an emphasis engine excuse me emphasis on genetics.

87
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,000
So it's the kind of thing that she would probably

88
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,079
have paid more attention to than me because it's in

89
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:27,959
I'll be honest, it's not ringing a bell with me

90
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:28,279
at all.

91
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,199
Speaker 2: Because when I heard also something that's sorry justin oh

92
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,720
go ahead, that's something that's popping back up now in

93
00:05:35,759 --> 00:05:39,759
our society. Like I just sent just in a text yesterday,

94
00:05:39,759 --> 00:05:43,000
I was like, what in the cannibalism occult rituals is

95
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:49,800
this And there's people now eating female reproductive organs I

96
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:57,920
mean phallopian tubes and placenta is So that's that's something

97
00:05:57,959 --> 00:06:00,759
that's happening now in the United States too, So I'm

98
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,000
curious curious also about that.

99
00:06:05,319 --> 00:06:07,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, well I got a talk coming up with Sharon.

100
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,000
I'll be sure to bring that up with her and

101
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:14,800
see what Thanks, yeah, because it was it sparked my curiosity,

102
00:06:14,879 --> 00:06:18,079
especially where I had that conversation with Enoch Puatrist and

103
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:22,600
he was talking about the basically the spirit cooking of

104
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:27,240
today that the the giants. It was his theory that

105
00:06:27,319 --> 00:06:33,319
was through ritual and through cannibalistic means, we're changing their

106
00:06:33,399 --> 00:06:37,560
DNA and taking in mass amounts of human growth hormone

107
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,439
and he thinks that that could be a reason for

108
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,439
the return of the Nephilum.

109
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, she's also talked about She's also talked about the

110
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:52,120
epigenetic changes that might take place through rituals, and we've

111
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:57,639
talked about that regarding say, Goliath and the post flood giants.

112
00:06:58,959 --> 00:07:01,079
It is our belief that God wouldn't have made a

113
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:05,240
mistake and accidentally allowed this bloodline to continue on the arc.

114
00:07:05,959 --> 00:07:08,439
And while it's possible that there was a second incursion

115
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,920
of angels mating with human women, it's also possible that

116
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,920
the spirit realm looked at what happened to that generation

117
00:07:17,639 --> 00:07:20,680
of watchers who did and the punishment they received, decided

118
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,160
they didn't want to go through that anymore. So if

119
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:27,279
that's the case, how do you get these philistine giants,

120
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,639
Especially when you look at Second Samuel twenty one and

121
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,560
the word translated as descendant of the giant, where you

122
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:40,360
talk about the giants like ishv ben Ov and Goliath

123
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:44,480
being descendants of the Rafa descendants of the giant, Rafa

124
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,439
being the singular form of refinem. That word descendant does

125
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:53,279
not mean descendant, It doesn't mean genetic blood relative of

126
00:07:53,319 --> 00:07:56,959
the giants. The word In Hebrew, yalid actually means one

127
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,319
who's a member of a group into which one's been

128
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:03,879
consecrated or initiated, so it's like a cult member. On

129
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,959
the other hand, you still got the fact that Goliath

130
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,360
is six cubits in a span in the Old Testament

131
00:08:10,439 --> 00:08:13,560
four cubits and a span, and the subtuagen. Doctor Clyde

132
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,360
Billington explained the difference between the two as being the

133
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,879
difference between how a Hebrew of David's era, you know

134
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:25,519
eleventh century BC tenth century BC, where a cubit may

135
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,199
you know the distance between your elbow and your your fingertip.

136
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,439
For an average Israelite who's five foot four, that may

137
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,639
only have been a fifteen inch cubit. But the royal

138
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,960
cubit of the Egyptians at the time the situagent was translated,

139
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,440
it was like twenty two and a half inches or

140
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:39,120
something like that.

141
00:08:39,799 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 7: So in order to keep the tame as both too,

142
00:08:43,519 --> 00:08:45,759
like the arc that was the same thing, it was

143
00:08:45,799 --> 00:08:49,919
measured by the royal cubit, not the cubit.

144
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 6: The cubit inach you know, of which your mileage may

145
00:08:53,799 --> 00:08:58,320
vary correct, which would make mass producing things difficult because

146
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,200
you're talking about a six footer's cubit or a guy

147
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,679
who's David size five foot four. But the point is

148
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,200
that there's no difference between the six cubans in a

149
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,120
span and the four cubans in a span. According to

150
00:09:09,159 --> 00:09:12,000
doctor Billington, it both works out to about eight feet tall,

151
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,159
which is still really really big.

152
00:09:14,639 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 5: How did he get that big?

153
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 6: Epigenetics is one possible answer, So, without having to go

154
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,320
back on, yeah, there was a second incursion of watcher

155
00:09:25,519 --> 00:09:27,600
class angels.

156
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 5: Who co mingled with human women.

157
00:09:29,159 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 6: So but yeah, when you start talking about genetics, shared

158
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:34,000
is the one you got to talk to.

159
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 2: So, Derek, you you'll have to forgive me. I'm a

160
00:09:38,799 --> 00:09:41,480
newbie in this space, okay, Like I've been here less

161
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,159
than a year, so everything is new to me, and

162
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:53,120
so I'm I also don't know your specific area of expertise,

163
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,879
So what what is your I know, I'm sorry that might.

164
00:09:57,759 --> 00:10:00,399
Speaker 5: Sound Oh that's all right, that's all right, just.

165
00:10:00,399 --> 00:10:04,159
Speaker 2: Starting this journey, So please be patient. What is your

166
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,240
expertise because.

167
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 6: I'm not sure. I'm not sure I have one either.

168
00:10:09,159 --> 00:10:13,399
It's there are areas that I've studied and I'm sort

169
00:10:13,399 --> 00:10:15,799
of a what you would call a generalist, I suppose

170
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,200
where I look at these various silos of information, where

171
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,600
you've got scholars who may be Assyriologists, you know, experts

172
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,600
in what the Assyrians did, but they don't really pay

173
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,720
much attention to what was happening in the Minoan culture,

174
00:10:27,919 --> 00:10:31,240
or a hit titologist who studied the Hittite culture of

175
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,799
ancient Anatolia, but they're not really versed on what happened

176
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,480
in Uh in Sumer. And so you know, I'm trying

177
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,559
to collate a bunch of stuff and put it all together.

178
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,279
If I had to say one thing, I guess it

179
00:10:41,279 --> 00:10:44,960
would be the uh the story of the giants of

180
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,120
the Bible and how they how, and why they're relevant

181
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:52,320
to us as Christians, and why they're important to Christian

182
00:10:52,399 --> 00:10:58,080
theology and Jewish theology. Really, we've done a number of

183
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:02,200
books that have dug deep into that, like Veneration, which

184
00:11:02,279 --> 00:11:05,240
was really focused on the origin of demons and the

185
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,559
cult of the Nepheline and the Ancient World Giants, Gods

186
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,440
and Dragons, which was inspired by a news story a

187
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,639
few years ago about players of the game Dungeons and

188
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,360
Dragons who got upset because the Orcs are always depicted

189
00:11:18,399 --> 00:11:20,879
as evil. Now, if you know anything about the works

190
00:11:20,919 --> 00:11:23,720
of J. R. R. Tolkien, Lord of the Rings, the Hobbit,

191
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:31,120
the Orcs were evil. They were irredeemably evil. But if

192
00:11:31,159 --> 00:11:33,399
you're a player of Dungeons and Dragons and you don't

193
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:38,639
have the backstory, you just have the inherited fantasy world

194
00:11:38,879 --> 00:11:42,720
created by J. R. R. Tolkien of elves and Orcs

195
00:11:42,759 --> 00:11:45,799
and trolls and dwarfs and so on, you might look

196
00:11:45,799 --> 00:11:47,960
at this and say, well, okay, it looks to me

197
00:11:48,039 --> 00:11:49,879
as though the only reason the Orcs are evil is

198
00:11:49,919 --> 00:11:52,120
because they have colored skin, and the elves are always

199
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,399
depicted as blonde and fair skinned, and so that's racist.

200
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,080
And so the producer of the game said, all right,

201
00:11:59,159 --> 00:12:01,840
we'll change the game and future additions where you can

202
00:12:01,879 --> 00:12:03,480
play the Orcs as good if you want. Now, I

203
00:12:03,519 --> 00:12:05,519
don't know if you're following what's going on with the

204
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,200
Lord of the Rings Rings of Power series on Amazon

205
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,159
The Power Yeah, yeah, well they're actually depicting the Orcs

206
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,600
as we don't want to go to war. I'm going

207
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,559
to stay home with my my Orc wife and my

208
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:19,360
Orc children.

209
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 5: Like why yes, yes.

210
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 2: The main yes, the main Orc. Yes, yes, they are

211
00:12:25,639 --> 00:12:29,440
the main or the main orc is like, but my wife.

212
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 6: And my baby, right, right, So we can laugh at

213
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:39,440
the players of Dungeons and Dragons for protesting the treatment

214
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,279
of fictional characters, the orcs. They're treating these fictional characters

215
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,600
like they're real, and they're getting upset and they're protesting,

216
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,559
and we can laugh at them. But then it dawned

217
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,759
on us, like, wait a minute. We Christians, according to

218
00:12:50,799 --> 00:12:54,240
survey after survey, treat the majority of the characters in

219
00:12:54,279 --> 00:12:56,840
the Bible, which we say we believe is the Word

220
00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,320
of God as though they're fiction. Sixty percent of American

221
00:13:00,399 --> 00:13:05,279
Christians don't think Satan is real, much less demons. So

222
00:13:05,639 --> 00:13:08,120
you know who, yeah, who are we to laugh at

223
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,000
the players of Dungeons and Dragons treating fictional characters.

224
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,879
Speaker 2: You listen to the Summarillion where you read the Summarillion,

225
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,639
you know where orcs actually come from, right, So christ.

226
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:27,679
Speaker 6: Yet, so they're they're essentially fallen angels, twisted fallen age.

227
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,360
So again, we can laugh at the characters treating that

228
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,679
the people who are treating fictional characters like the real

229
00:13:33,759 --> 00:13:36,399
But we're taking characters in the Word of God who

230
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,960
he calls gods and giants and dragons and treating them

231
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,120
as though they're fiction. So that's kind of where San

232
00:13:44,159 --> 00:13:47,000
and I have gone. We've taken the teachings of doctor

233
00:13:47,039 --> 00:13:51,360
Michael Heiser and his Divine Council worldview and investigating how

234
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,519
that affects our understanding of the Bible.

235
00:13:55,440 --> 00:14:02,159
Speaker 2: I just finished The Unseen Realm. Yep, that's an aggressive book.

236
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:09,840
Huh yeah, but yeah. Do you actually believe I came

237
00:14:09,879 --> 00:14:14,120
into this space after he was already passed? So rest

238
00:14:14,159 --> 00:14:16,480
of peace, God rest is so so all I have

239
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,519
are the people who are basically carrying the torch and

240
00:14:19,679 --> 00:14:24,159
taking it for him. But dragons? Do you actually think

241
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:33,080
that dragons? Do you believe that dragons can? Not that

242
00:14:33,159 --> 00:14:35,399
they did exist, but that they will exist again.

243
00:14:36,639 --> 00:14:37,679
Speaker 5: I think they do exist.

244
00:14:37,799 --> 00:14:40,639
Speaker 6: It's just that, like most of the angelic realm, we

245
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:45,399
don't perceive them with our limited human perceptions. Were we

246
00:14:45,399 --> 00:14:49,120
were created to occupy this natural space, which is why

247
00:14:49,279 --> 00:14:53,240
Jude refers to the angels who sinned a reference to

248
00:14:53,279 --> 00:14:55,639
the sons of God in Genesis chapter six as those

249
00:14:55,679 --> 00:14:58,799
who kept not their proper estate, who left their proper dwelling,

250
00:14:59,159 --> 00:15:02,320
and so on. They were created for the spirit realm.

251
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,799
They intruded on our realm and meddled with humanity, and

252
00:15:05,799 --> 00:15:08,440
that's why they left their first estate of their proper dwelling.

253
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:14,480
When you look at descriptions of, for example, the fiery

254
00:15:14,639 --> 00:15:18,039
serpents that afflicted the Israelites in Numbers chapter twenty one,

255
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,720
if I remember correctly, the words in Hebrew for the

256
00:15:22,759 --> 00:15:26,000
fiery serpents is saraf, which is the singular form of

257
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:31,440
serapheme described by Isaiah and Isaiah chapter six, and nakash,

258
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,720
which is the word translated serpent back in Genesis chapter three.

259
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:41,840
So you've got nakash saraf in one case, nakashim seraphim plural,

260
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:49,039
which suggests that nakashim serpents or serpentine beings, because we

261
00:15:49,039 --> 00:15:51,159
don't think that the snake in the garden was actually

262
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:52,200
a talking snake.

263
00:15:53,039 --> 00:15:55,039
Speaker 5: It was a being that.

264
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 6: Even Adam were used to seeing there. They were part

265
00:15:58,279 --> 00:16:03,639
of the divine council, used interchangeably with Seraphene, who were

266
00:16:03,679 --> 00:16:07,480
the throne guardians Isaiah saw in Isaiah. Well, the word

267
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:13,360
nakash has that range of meanings. According to Mike Heiser

268
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:19,960
and Mike, drawing on accepted Hebrew translations, it can refer

269
00:16:20,039 --> 00:16:26,159
to one that is glowing, almost like polished brass. So

270
00:16:26,279 --> 00:16:28,799
you may have a in the nakash you may have

271
00:16:29,039 --> 00:16:31,919
a being that has serpentine appearance but is also radiant

272
00:16:32,799 --> 00:16:36,440
and glowing, which would fit with seraphine because aaf and

273
00:16:36,519 --> 00:16:40,360
Hebrew is a verb that means burning. So the seraphine, literally,

274
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,919
if the word derives from Hebrew, means the burning ones.

275
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,480
So Nakashim seraphine, you've got these fiery serpents. And then

276
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:53,080
in Isaiah you've got the flying serpents that are afflicting

277
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,679
the Hebrews. So you know, again you got flying fiery serpents,

278
00:16:55,720 --> 00:17:01,159
the seraphime six wings, and what would you call a

279
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:07,400
flying fiery serpent other than a dragon realm.

280
00:17:07,519 --> 00:17:10,039
Speaker 4: Also, you know, you had these guys that book, it

281
00:17:10,079 --> 00:17:15,240
was called she what was the name of it, The

282
00:17:15,319 --> 00:17:19,960
Cosmic Serpent. Them guys talk about all their d MT

283
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:24,200
experiences going into this astral realm, every single one of

284
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:29,000
them without every single experience with a snake. And it's

285
00:17:29,039 --> 00:17:31,799
a now I'll describe as shining and shimmering and the

286
00:17:31,799 --> 00:17:33,119
scales are glowing.

287
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 5: Yeah.

288
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,519
Speaker 6: In fact, Sharon and I reference that in our well, actually,

289
00:17:38,559 --> 00:17:42,039
the book is kind of out already The hard copy

290
00:17:42,079 --> 00:17:43,720
is not going to be out till October fifteenth, but

291
00:17:43,759 --> 00:17:50,240
apparently the Amazon audible edition is already out there, called

292
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:54,160
The Gates of Hell. And we get into the the

293
00:17:54,279 --> 00:17:58,440
d MT experiments of doctor Rick Strassman and the what

294
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:03,799
do you call it? The spirit molecule. I interviewed him

295
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,720
years ago about that, and yeah, it was when you've

296
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,559
got multiple witnesses who are reporting seeing the same thing

297
00:18:10,599 --> 00:18:14,079
at the same time, given that mass hallucinations are not

298
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,440
a thing, you basically have multiple people seeing into that

299
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:21,839
spirit realm. And this really took Strassman by surprise, but

300
00:18:22,079 --> 00:18:28,160
those were entities that were reported by more than a

301
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:33,240
few observers. And you want to be described spirit molecule,

302
00:18:33,839 --> 00:18:37,559
the spirit molecule, Yeah, d MT, it's it's the molecule.

303
00:18:37,559 --> 00:18:42,839
It's the active ingredient in ayahuasca and it's found in

304
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:43,240
the brain.

305
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 5: There's a theory that was isn't that?

306
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,599
Speaker 2: Isn't that? What they're saying is now surrounding the quote

307
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,920
unquote burning bush, like the area where the burning bush was,

308
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,839
they're saying that that is now there's a plant out

309
00:18:56,839 --> 00:19:01,160
there that now grows that naturally produces that. And they're

310
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:05,759
saying that the reason that Moses had that experience is

311
00:19:05,799 --> 00:19:09,480
because he was like high Well.

312
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 6: Strassman argued that in his follow up book, to the

313
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,519
Spirit Molecule, and I think he called the spirit of

314
00:19:15,519 --> 00:19:17,839
prophecy or something to that effect. But he was arguing

315
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:22,720
that the Hebrew prophets had been dosed with DMT somehow,

316
00:19:22,839 --> 00:19:25,759
or they were dosing themselves with DMT or something similar,

317
00:19:25,759 --> 00:19:27,079
which is why they were able to see in the

318
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:31,400
spirit realm, which of course ignores the biblical narrative that

319
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:36,119
they were always taken into that realm by an angelic guide.

320
00:19:36,279 --> 00:19:44,680
So I think doctor Strassman didn't quite interpret the scriptures.

321
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,759
That his story is that he was raised in an

322
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,720
Orthodox Jewish home, but he went atheist, then he went Buddhist,

323
00:19:51,079 --> 00:19:55,119
and so he was a believer in the const of I.

324
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,599
Speaker 2: Don't know him. I don't know him. So is he

325
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,559
the one claiming that this area where the burning bush

326
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:01,759
was supposed to be is.

327
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 6: Well, I don't know whether he is or not, but

328
00:20:05,079 --> 00:20:07,160
he's the one making the claim that the Hebrew profits,

329
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,920
or at least theorizing that the Hebrew profits used DMT

330
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,440
or a substance similar to it to see into the

331
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,279
spirit realm, and he wanted to do more experiments with

332
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,319
DMT to see if we could find out how to

333
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:23,200
harness the ability to prophesy using DMT. I don't know

334
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:28,799
who's made that claim. Ayahuasca is a South American drug

335
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,960
that's been used for centuries, I mean more than a

336
00:20:32,039 --> 00:20:37,599
thousand years in South America. But burning bush Burning Bush

337
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,920
would have been somewhere in southeast of the Dead Sea.

338
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,759
I mean, I know there are those who think that

339
00:20:42,839 --> 00:20:45,799
Moses encountered it in Arabia. We think it was at Petra,

340
00:20:45,839 --> 00:20:49,279
but that's for another book. But I don't think there

341
00:20:49,279 --> 00:20:54,839
are any I don't think there are any substances or

342
00:20:55,519 --> 00:20:58,279
naturally occurring substances in that region that have that effect

343
00:20:59,000 --> 00:20:59,920
have the effect of DMT.

344
00:21:00,079 --> 00:21:02,079
Speaker 5: You or ayahuasca, But.

345
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:08,559

Speaker 3: Back to the xisod.

375
00:22:44,279 --> 00:22:47,559
Speaker 6: So anyway, Yeah, there was one to describe these entities

376
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:54,279
as reptilian beings or being describing them actually as reptilians,

377
00:22:54,279 --> 00:22:57,400
and there are a number of consistencies. Are the insectoids,

378
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:01,920
the reptilians, and then these very tall, attractive humans almost

379
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:06,640
like the Nordics, so very much like the UFO contact

380
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,640
ease and the races that they claim that they contact

381
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:19,039
on a regular basis. It's the reports of the observers

382
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,720
were so consistent that doctor Strassman, who again went in

383
00:23:22,839 --> 00:23:26,839
this as a Buddhist, a believer in the concept of nirvana,

384
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,599
where you lose yourself into the cosmic oneness, you know,

385
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:36,920
you lose your self identity, that he left Eastern mysticism

386
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,920
behind because he said, what I'm hearing from these volunteers

387
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:44,039
in the experiments is so consistent that it disproves the

388
00:23:44,079 --> 00:23:46,359
idea that somewhere out there in the spirit realm, as

389
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,680
there is a sort of cosmic mainframe that we will

390
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:53,400
all merge with someday, we don't lose our sense of self,

391
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,359
our sense of identity when we go into this other realm.

392
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,039
But then again, is then, rather than returning to his

393
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:04,319
religious roots as a Jew, he said, okay, well, it

394
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:08,119
must be that Moses and Ezekiel, and Daniel and Isaiah

395
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,440
were seeing all these things because they were tripping, so

396
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,359
we need to do more experience to find out hot

397
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:13,319
we can replicate that.

398
00:24:19,079 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 3: Hi everybody, I'm Chris vic I'm the founder of Squatch

399
00:24:21,319 --> 00:24:23,160
Survival Gear, and today I'm here to talk to you

400
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,920
about some of our most popular packs. In twenty seventeen,

401
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,200
I founded Squatched Survival Gear because I was tired of

402
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,880
seeing low quality, mass pertce packs flooding the American market.

403
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,839
I decided I'd make a pack that was one hundred

404
00:24:34,839 --> 00:24:38,079
percent designed and manufactured in the United States. And today

405
00:24:38,079 --> 00:24:39,480
I'm here to talk to you about some of our

406
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,960
most popular packs. This is the Knighthawler. Is designed for

407
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,599
EBC and travelers. As you can see, it's small. It's

408
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:49,240
roughly ten by twelve inches, designed for everyday carry. The

409
00:24:49,319 --> 00:24:51,440
pass through pad allows you to put it on your

410
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:56,400
luggage when you travel. This is the Rugaroo, very civilianized,

411
00:24:56,839 --> 00:25:00,359
lots of attachment points. This is a twenty five liter pack.

412
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,400
We designed it for a little lighter load. If you

413
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,440
need more than the night Howler should try this. This

414
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,039
is the Mothman, very similar to the Rugaru, roughly the

415
00:25:09,039 --> 00:25:11,880
same size, but it's designed for carrying a much heavier load.

416
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,039
The removable waste belt will help you carry that extra load.

417
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,279
Bosscott your retaining strap if you're going to take that

418
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:22,400
on a on a travel trip. This is the Kakamora.

419
00:25:22,519 --> 00:25:24,599
This would be your first seventy two hour pack, as

420
00:25:24,599 --> 00:25:27,200
we used to say in the Army. It comes with

421
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:31,559
an internal frame, totally adjustable, straps, heavily padded. You can

422
00:25:31,599 --> 00:25:35,440
carry heavy loads, carry lots of gear. This is the Rockape.

423
00:25:35,519 --> 00:25:39,759
It's a forty five liter pack, same internal frame, same

424
00:25:39,799 --> 00:25:43,160
great padded straps that you like, with a few extra features.

425
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,279
If you're wondering what's with all the crazy names, well

426
00:25:49,279 --> 00:25:52,119
that's because finding one hundred percent American made is as

427
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,720
hard as finding bigfoot in the woods. When you're ready

428
