'Looker' (1981)

Who is "the Widow's son"? I'm fancying the widow is actually Eve, because Adam is dead.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiram_Abiff

Hiram Abiff (also Hiram Abif or the Widow's son) is the central character of an allegory presented to all candidates during the third degree in Freemasonry.

Hiram is presented as the chief architect of King Solomon's Temple. He is murdered inside this Temple by three ruffians, after they failed to obtain from him the Master Masons' secrets. The themes of the allegory are the importance of fidelity, and the certainty of death.

Architect Hiram, St. John's Church, Chester (1900)

It's probably worth reading all of that page, but I'm going to skip to the Biblical reference section.

Hirams in the Bible
In the Hebrew Bible or Old Testament, there are three separate instances of people named Hiram that were involved in the construction of the temple of Solomon:

• Hiram, King of the realm of Tyre (today, in the modern nation of Lebanon), is credited in 2 Samuel 5:11 and 1 Kings 5:1–10 for having sent building materials and men for the original construction of the Temple in Jerusalem. In the Masonic drama, "Hiram, King of Tyre" is clearly distinguished from "Hiram Abiff". The former is clearly a king and the latter clearly a master craftsman. They can be confused in other contexts.
• In 1 Kings 7:13–14, Hiram is described as the son of a widow from the tribe of Naphtali who was the son of a Tyrian bronze worker, sent for by Solomon to cast the bronze furnishings and ornate decorations for the new temple. From this reference, Freemasons often refer to Hiram (with the added Abiff) as "the widow's son." Hiram cast these bronzes in clay ground in the plain of the Jordan between Succoth and Zarethan/Zeredathah (1 Kings 7:46–47).
• 2 Chronicles 2:13–14 relates a formal request from King Solomon of Jerusalem to King Hiram I of Tyre, for workers and for materials to build a new temple. King Hiram (Huram in Chronicles) responds "And now I have sent a skillful man, endowed with understanding, Ḥuram 'abi. (the son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, and his father was a man of Tyre), skilled to work in gold and silver, bronze and iron, stone and wood, purple and blue, fine linen and crimson, and to make any engraving and to accomplish any plan which may be given to him, with your skillful men and with the skillful men of my lord David your father." The phrase italicised above is translated in the New King James Version as "Huram my master craftsman". Most translations of this passage take the "'ab-" in "'abi" as the construct state of 'abba, here translated as master. Older translations preferred to translate "'ab-" as father. The common translation of the -i suffix is "my", giving the problematic reading that Hiram was sending his own father, also called Hiram. This is found in the Vulgate, the Douay–Rheims Bible and in Wycliffe's Bible. The other reading is as the old Hebrew genitive, and some variant of "of my father" is found in the Septuagint, the Bishop's Bible and the Geneva Bible. In his 1723 "Constitutions", James Anderson announced that many problems with this text would be solved by reading "'abi" as the second part of a proper name, which he rendered as "Hiram Abif", agreeing with the translations of Martin Luther and Miles Coverdale's reading of 2 Chronicles 4:16.

Other accounts of a biblical Hiram

• Flavius Josephus in his Antiquities of the Jews (Chapter 8:76) refers to Hiram as τεχνίτης, tekhnítēs, artificer, craftsman. "Now Solomon sent for an artificer out of Tyre, whose name was Hiram: he was by birth of the tribe of Naphtali, on his mother's side (for she was of that tribe); but his father was Ur, of the stock of the Israelites."
• The Targum Sheni, an Aramaic commentary on the Book of Esther written sometime between the fall of Rome and the Crusades, credits Hiram with the construction of a miraculous throne for Solomon, which in Esther's time is being used by the descendants of Cyrus the Great.

I'm not wrong about the widow. This is what I mean about Easter Eggs; I've had a little time to think on it, and suddenly things that I assumed were metaphors in the Bible, are actually realities.

I don't know if I sufficiently made clear the previous. In Genesis 1, we have the creation of the Earth, I'm going to skip past that. On day six all the land creatures are created, then finally Adam. From the wording, we get the impression Adam is made differently to everything that has come before him. Up until Genesis 1:26 everything is spoken into existence, then we have:

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. — Genesis 1:26 KJV

When Jesus spoke in parables, he usually told a couple in quick succession. And basically although they were different, they were making the same point but giving more detail each time. And this is exactly how the Bible is constructed. So in Chapter one, Eve is not mentioned. In Chapter 2, we get more detail; we find out how Adam was made.

And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. — Genesis 2:7 KJV

Adam is not created from nothing; instead, the Lord God picks up some earth and moulds it into his own image, then He breathes life into it. We find out more about earth, that it is called Eden, and Adam is told about the tree of knowledge of good and evil and not to eat from it. Adam then names the animals. I originally thought it was because Eve wasn't around when the instruction was given, that's why the human race only fell when Adam ate from the tree. But it's not that.

And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. — Genesis 2:21-23 KJV

Adam was created inanimate and dead, then life was breathed into him. Eve was created alive, from the same body and spirit as Adam, therefore she is as much Adam, as Adam is, but she was created differently, and she was created to compliment and complete Adam.

Adam is the XY, he has the breath of life to pass on; Eve is the XX, the vessel through which Adam can create. The whole point of earth being brought into existence was so every living being in the visible and invisible world can come to the same conclusion by themselves. But, not only was Eve taken out of Adam and built, the whole human race in the form of XX was put inside her. There was only ever one Y, and this is the breath that was originally breathed into Adam. From him was taken Eve, minus life in herself, this comes from Adam; and when Eve was formed, the entire human race was created within her, Russian dolls style. This means humans are finite and not infinite. There will come a point when the last human is born and dies.

I haven't just pulled something out of fresh air here. This is a known fact by people a lot smarter than me. Consider human cloning; why is it even a thing? If one has seed, why even try to clone something like a sheep, dog or human? But if there comes a point where there is no seed, then the only option is cloning. Suddenly a whole branch of science has a very good reason to exist.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolly_(sheep)

Dolly (sheep)

A close-up of Dolly in her stuffed form

Dolly (5 July 1996 – 14 February 2003) was a female Finn-Dorset sheep and the first mammal that was cloned from an adult somatic cell. She was cloned by associates of the Roslin Institute in Scotland, using the process of nuclear transfer from a cell taken from a mammary gland. Her cloning proved that a cloned organism could be produced from a mature cell from a specific body part. Contrary to popular belief, she was not the first animal to be cloned.

The employment of adult somatic cells in lieu of embryonic stem cells for cloning emerged from the foundational work of John Gurdon, who cloned African clawed frogs in 1958 with this approach. The successful cloning of Dolly led to widespread advancements within stem cell research, including the discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells.

Dolly lived at the Roslin Institute throughout her life and produced several lambs. She was euthanized at the age of six years due to a progressive lung disease. No cause which linked the disease to her cloning was found.

Dolly's body was preserved and donated by the Roslin Institute in Scotland to the National Museum of Scotland, where it has been regularly exhibited since 2003.

I'll continue this in the next post, as I want to better explain why the widow, in the widow's son, is Eve.

[rachel]

In the last post I stated, "not only was Eve taken out of Adam and built, the whole human race in the form of XX was put inside her." I get this from Paul's letter to the Ephesians, he states, "he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world"; so even before the earth was built.

Remember being told every human being starts out female? Well I wanted to take a grab in case you hadn't. And I've just realise, what with the trans agenda, that statement is now an anathema. It would seem since 2017 there is a new scientific consensus, and you are a heretic if you quote the former doctrine. To the point where certain "true-false" sites have had Wayback delete page grabs prior to 2017. Clearly to hide the fact the concept they now deride as false, they previously wholly endorsed as true.

Anyway, I found an example.

https://storymd.com/journal/mp9kx4e06w- ... out-female

Adam may have been created first in the Bible, but it's Eve who is the original child of every womb. All embryos, male (XY) or female (XX), start off along the developmental pathway to womanhood, and for the first six weeks of growth they look exactly the same. In order for a boy to be formed, the Y chromosome must not only send out the correct chemical signals to the brain and body, but those signals must be properly received.

The earth was brought into existence for a greater purpose than all that had come before. We are the answer to the great controversy. We are the purchased possession of Christ, he bought us with his blood to set us free. His ownership is merely to stop others putting us in bondage. Satan has nothing on him, so therefore us in Christ. Do you see below there are two? God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. The image in the flesh, Adam and Eve.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Ephesians-1-kjv/

Ephesians Chapter 1

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus: Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence; Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

Jesus is head of the body, the church. He came to earth in order to be a husband to the human race; the second Adam. Within his blood is life, and when we are joined to him we become a new creation. The Bible talks about the wedding party, his bride the church. And this is where it becomes clear what Freemasonry is signifying. If we choose not to be the bride of Christ, then we will remain the Widow's son.

Where simulation ("deep fake" technology) is fully weaponized and deployed for total control through mass media and virtual reality.

Wild Palms is a five-hour miniseries which was produced by Greengrass Productions and first aired in May 1993 on the ABC network in the United States. The sci-fi drama, announced as an "event series", deals with the dangers of politically motivated abuse of mass media technology and virtual realities in particular. It was based on a comic strip written by Bruce Wagner and illustrated by Julian Allen first published in 1990 in Details magazine. Wagner, who also wrote the screenplay, served as executive producer together with Oliver Stone. The series stars James Belushi, Dana Delany, Robert Loggia, Kim Cattrall, Bebe Neuwirth, David Warner, and Angie Dickinson. The episodes were directed by Kathryn Bigelow, Keith Gordon, Peter Hewitt and Phil Joanou.

That has a creepy vibe. Flicking through, I noticed the presenter said he was actually in the penthouse suite above them, and this was his hologram.

No floor numbers mentioned above as I can see. In LOOKER, there is a similar scene, this time Coburn's character says he's going to show some of his new commercials generated by a computer on the NINETEENTH FLOOR. Not only that, look at the graph to the right...YELLOW AND BLUE. Also, do we think that view count is real (not)? I've probably watch parts of it four or five times in order to get grabs

And a reminder of Zelensky and his hologram...do we think he might just have been in a floor above them, and not Ukraine?

The Story One, Russian Dolls video...who actually came up with that animation and made it? it's not from a group of twenty year olds who suddenly thought, 'let's do a stop motion animation about a set of conjoined twins to go with the song we wrote'. ...I get the thinking behind the video, because if one follows the logic of the Biblical generations as described earlier in this thread; the whole human race being in Eve like Russian Dolls, then the natural next question is; 'What about identical twins? How does that work?'



If identical twins are one fertilised egg split into two, does that mean they are one life that has been split into two? Or are they two separate lives from the start? Or maybe only one of the two twins has a soul? Some people would limit this to just a thought experiment, but there are a few who would think, if we get sets of twins, we could devise some tests to see how certain stimuli given to one affects the other.

Step in the Nazis.

Now I know any article that includes references to Auschwitz is apt to distortions and relabelling, but there is something the stories have been created to hide. So we should look for sensitive areas in the stories for clues.

A History of Mengele's Gruesome Experiments on Twins
January 01, 2021

From May 1943 until January 1945, Nazi doctor Josef Mengele worked at Auschwitz, conducting pseudo-scientific medical experiments. Many of his cruel experiments were conducted on young twins.

Notorious Doctor of Auschwitz

Mengele, the notorious doctor of Auschwitz, has become an enigma of the 20th century. Mengele's handsome physical appearance, fastidious dress, and calm demeanor contradicted his attraction to murder and gruesome experiments.

Mengele's seeming omnipresence at the railroad unloading platform called the ramp, as well as his fascination with twins, incited images of a mad, evil monster. His ability to elude authorities after World War II—he was never captured—increased his notoriety and gave him a mystical and devious persona.

In May 1943, Mengele entered Auschwitz as an educated, experienced, medical researcher. With funding for his experiments, he worked alongside some of the top medical researchers of the time. Anxious to make a name for himself, Mengele searched for the secrets of heredity. The Nazi ideal of the future would benefit from the help of genetics, according to Nazi doctrine. If so-called Aryan women could give birth to twins who were sure to be blond and blue-eyed, the future could be saved.

Mengele, who worked for Professor Otmar Freiherr von Vershuer, a biologist who pioneered twin methodology in the study of genetics, believed that twins held these secrets. Auschwitz seemed the best location for such research because of the large number of available twins to use as specimens...


Life for the Twins

Daily life for the twins began at 6 a.m. They were required to report for roll call in front of their barracks, regardless of weather conditions. After roll call, they ate a small breakfast. Then each morning, Mengele would appear for an inspection.

Mengele's presence did not necessarily cause fear in the children. He was often known to appear with pockets full of candy and chocolates, to pat them on the head, talk with them, and sometimes even play. Many of the children, especially the younger ones, called him "Uncle Mengele."

The twins were given brief instruction in makeshift "classes" and were sometimes even allowed to play soccer. The children were not required to do hard work or labor. They were also spared from punishments, as well as from the frequent selections within the camp. The twins had some of the best conditions of anyone at Auschwitz until the trucks came to take them to the experiments.


Mengele's Twin Experiments

Generally, every twin had to have blood drawn every day. They also underwent various medical experiments. Mengele kept his exact reasoning for his experiments a secret. Many of the twins that he experimented on did not know the purpose of the experiments, or what exactly what was being injected into or otherwise done to them. The experiments included:

Measurements: The twins were forced to undress and lie next to each other. Every detail of their anatomy was carefully examined, studied, and measured. Features that were the same between the two were deemed to be hereditary, and those that were different were deemed environmental. These tests would last for several hours.

Blood: The frequent blood tests and experiments included mass transfusions of blood from one twin to another.

Eyes: In attempts to fabricate blue eye color, drops, or injections of chemicals would be put in their eyes. This often caused severe pain, infections, and temporary or permanent blindness.

Shots and diseases: Mysterious injections caused severe pain. Injections into the spine and spinal taps were given with no anesthesia. Diseases, including typhus and tuberculosis, would be purposely given to one twin and not the other. When one died, the other was often killed to examine and compare the effects of the disease.

Surgeries: Various surgeries were performed without anesthesia, including organ removal, castration, and amputation.

Death: Dr. Miklos Nyiszli was Mengele's prisoner pathologist. The autopsies became the final experiment. Nyiszli performed autopsies on twins who had died from the experiments or who had been purposely killed just for after-death measurements and examination. Some of the twins had been stabbed with a needle that pierced their hearts, which were injected with chloroform or phenol, causing near-immediate blood coagulation and death. Some of the organs, eyes, blood samples, and tissues would be sent to Verschuer, Mengele's former professor, for further study.

We can kind of see where In vitro fertilisation comes from; and abortion on demand. From their experiments on twins. We can take it they concluded, twins are individuals and therefore they are not one soul split. And if they are not one soul split, then while mechanical life might start at conception, a human person is not added until some time after the point an egg can spit to create twins. So what happens if in a test tube one can manufacture a split, do the twins still develop in exactly the same way? Are they still individuals, both having souls? And what if a scientist can split an egg into triplets or quadruplets..?

This is not just me having a thought experiment, this is what they REALLY did. We know this for a fact because of where we are now with test-tube babies and abortion on demand. This is all a result of British and German Nazism that has its birth in the AGE OF ENLIGHTENMENT. This woman here is a modern day Nazi.

And why do I say this. Because Penny Mordaunt stood in the House of Commons and decreed care home workers would be sacked for not submitting to an experimental jab that nobody had a clue what it contained and didn't have a right to know. That hadn't been through any proper safety trials and was specifically not tested to see if it actually stopped the thing it was claimed to stop. That the manufacturers fudged their safety results and minimised any adverse effects. That a UK coroner ruled early on that the jabs killed people; and that after all that, the jabs didn't stop the thing they were supposed to stop. But all this had no bearing, care home workers had to get the jab to keep their job; the apparent logic, risking having no staff to look after the elderly was going to save the elderly more than a jab that has the potential to kill the people it's given to, and doesn't stop the thing it is meant to stop. Yet we know by the blanket DNRs, the unprecedented Midazolam prescribing in 2020/21, the elderly were always expendable pawns in this game. And all because the CORONA is tied to THE GOD THEY WORSHIP. And rather than being tried for crimes against humanity, Penny Mordaunt sits pretty, and nobody in the British Establishment bats an eye.

Nazism isn't about blond hair and blue eyes, it isn't about the Jews; this is a fake dialectic. In doing a proper study of the Bible, it actually begins to makes sense where these ideas come from. It makes sense that in the very places of SOLA SCRIPTURA, Germany and Britain, where they threw off the barbaric chains of the Catholic Church; these end up being the very same places where Nazism is embedded. Wherever there is Jesus Christ there will always be Judas Iscariot.

And here's the absolute link between the two. Ab put up this post about Holocaust Remembrance Day, a video by Ernst Zundel and his team who dispute the "gassing of the Jews". He likely has good reason to do that, because it was clearly a lie agreed upon by all parties involved. But the reader really needs to look at what these guys freely admit to believing and perpetrating in light of the COVID-19 crimes against humanity. Does it sound familiar? Does it sound like the script Matt Hancock, Sajid Javid, Penny Mordaunt, etc, etc, etc, pushed?


Zundel and Team - Genocide (All Things German)

At about the 40 minute mark, the commentator makes a claim about Eastern Europeans, especially the Poles, being louse-ridden and flea-ridden. Then he starts showing photos of warning signs to apparently prove it must have been true.

And then at 42 minutes we find out the entire population of "filthy Poles" were force vaccinated against smallpox.

THIS IS THEIR OWN WORDS.

City by city, town by town, village by village, the Germans proceeded methodically, as in most things, and cleaned out the lice and the vermin, and so on; and here we have the district of Warsaw being closed off until all people, buildings and animals had been decontaminated, or whatever you want to call it.

Do you, dear reader, stand with the Nazis..?

no my dear i do not pick any side i know is controlled ,x

i'm gonna get around to watching this ,but i thought why wait till i have watched it ,so i'll post it now

Sisters (released as Blood Sisters in the United Kingdom) is a 1972 American psychological horror film directed by Brian De Palma and starring Margot Kidder, Jennifer Salt, and Charles Durning. It follows a French Canadian model's separated conjoined twin who is suspected of having committed a brutal murder witnessed by a newspaper reporter in Staten Island, New York City.

Co-written by De Palma and Louisa Rose, the screenplay for the film was inspired by the Soviet conjoined twins Masha and Dasha Krivoshlyapova and features narrative and visual references to several films by Alfred Hitchcock.[5] Filmed on location in Staten Island, the film prominently features split-screen compositions (also present in subsequent De Palma films such as Carrie), and was scored by frequent Hitchcock collaborator Bernard Herrmann.

Released in the spring of 1973, Sisters received praise from critics who noted its adept performances and use of homage. It marked the first thriller for De Palma, who followed it with other shocking thrillers, and went on to become a cult film in the years after its release.[1]

Oct 1, 4026 BC - Creation of Adam

https://time.graphics/event/556246

This is something napoleon would have liked if he was still here. With reference to the line of Cain, as mentioned earlier in this thread, I thought I'd add this here.

Just listening to an audio about the Hebrew language. In the Bible, everyone has a name tat describes their character. Or more specifically, Hebrew doesn't do nouns, it's all adjective based...they say it is a living language...well it is very much spoken in the present tense. I've posted about this before.


In Hebrew Cain means "to bring forth". It also has a second meaning, from which we no doubt get cane, this is only used once in the Bible. This second meaning is "spear". Below, the owner of the spear being Goliath the Gittite. He is the giant being referred to.

"And Ishbibenob, which was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear weighed three hundred shekels of brass in weight, he being girded with a new sword, thought to have slain David." — 2 Samuel 21:16 KJV

It is interesting looking at some of the meanings of "cane", particularly the corporal punishment and basket weaving reference. But "spear" is not amongst them.

cane | keɪn |

noun
1 the hollow jointed stem of a tall grass, especially bamboo or sugar cane, or the stem of a slender palm such as rattan.
• any plant that produces canes.
• [mass noun] stems of bamboo, rattan, or wicker used as a material for making furniture or baskets: [as modifier] : a cane coffee table.
• short for sugar cane.
• a flexible woody stem of the raspberry plant or any of its relatives: raspberry canes.
2 a length of cane or a slender stick, especially one used as a support for plants, a walking stick, or an instrument of punishment: tie the shoot to a cane if vertical growth is required.
• (the cane) a form of corporal punishment used in certain schools, involving beating with a cane: wrong answers were rewarded by the cane.

verb [with object]
1 beat with a cane as a punishment: Matthew was caned for bullying by the headmaster.
• British informal defeat heavily or punish severely: they have caned Essex and Durham in the Championship.
2 British informal take (drink or drugs) in large quantities: the others were probably out caning it in some bar.

DERIVATIVES
caner noun

ORIGIN
late Middle English: from Old French, via Latin from Greek kanna, kannē, of Semitic origin.

When I heard the word "spear", I couldn't help thinking of the following.
