So, this is a subject that we need to include in our notebook... We've covered somewhat 'Mary the Jewess,' who was, by all accounts, a most excellent alchemist. It has even been posited that this 'Mary' was Moses' sister (sorer), which would mean that, most likely, Moses was also 'heir' to this knowledge... as well as certain others, among whom we can count this figure known only as 'Abraham the Jew.' Well, let's see what we can 'uncover' here... and how it all 'relates'... Abraham Eleazar the Jew, a Prince, Priest, and Levite, Astrologer and Philosopher, sprung from the root of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, wish my brethren, who through the anger of the Great God, lie scatted her and there throughout the world and are caught in servitude, much success and happiness in the Name of the soon coming Messiah and of the great Prophet Elias, who has already prepared all his brethren. Deni, Adonai, Bocitto, Ochysche 60 F, therefore wait in patience until the Hero comes.
Marantha however, over all and sundry, not of the tribe of Judah, who receive this book into their hands, that such must be destroyed and perish, as the company of Korah, Dathan, Abiram and perish or vanish in the Fire. www.rexresearch.com/abrelzar/abrelzar.htmI will quote from this website, for a bit. The highlights are my own, so that you can see where correlations might be made... Eli's coming... that's what I heard... or maybe he's already here... it's so hard to tell with everybody playing 'dress up' and all.

And I'm afraid that, for now, I will have to leave you with this... Dear Brethren:
The Need and anxiety has mounted high, and the burden to great, that they nearly almost all crushed us into the dark grave, where all consolation ends, because we must complain day and night, that the Lord forsakes us, and in his righteous anger banishes us from his Sanctuary, which waste, and the heathen were called in for abuse, and we be destroyed here and there with mockery and scorn, under pure pressure lie under servants of the heathen and unbelievers, and must endure from such all troubles, so contrived. As there is nobody, who would be zealous for the law and the Sanctuary.
Therefore, dear brethren, have I thought on you a little again to raise, and to give again a consolation in your oppression; even to give a pattern, and as yet again help you, and raise up, and when the Hero comes set at defiance your enemies, and the soon coming Messiah with joy triumphant be able to receive JHVH who will lead you out through his predecessor and messenger the Elias, then will all your enemies lie at the footstool of your feet.
Then shout thou forsaken one, that those who oppressed thee, those will be destroyed with Fire, those however who did you good, will submit themselves to you at the time.
Guard yourself, however, that you do not engage with such, for they must bear the load of the Lord. Make yourself however liable for servants and maids; separate them among you, in order that their seed cease and die out. Yes they will be your wood and water carriers according to the words of the Lord.
Therefore have patience and suffer all oppressions. Avoid however also and shun all vice. Hold to the one God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and think how often that the Lord has freed you from your enemies, that, where you hold to him that finally your heartbreak came to him, that he freed you from the disgrace of the slanderer, because they say in Psalm 95 v. 2. Where is their God? Who does not recognize you. He will not otherwise be able than on his Covenant to remember, according to his promise, and a deliverance from Salem send; the Messiah will destroy and drive away, all the kings of the heathens before us, and conquer. Then will we with him reign, when he will then gather us from all the four ends of the World.
A consolation... You see there, dear 'Albrecht'... there will be a 'consolation' prize, after all... Comfits...? For those who 'run a Good race'... And, if I'm not mistaken, that looks like a 'Big Dodo'... Lololol...

...Our virgins they make servants and deflower such before our eyes, our old men and princes are wretchedly by them murdered. Out young men are put to death under the burden. The boys have sunk under the burden of wood. Also the place is no more existing, where our ancients sat, our harps have disappeared. Our head stands uncovered. The crown has been stolen from us. Our eyes become dim, because our heart is full of care. Ah pity us, that our enemies are so great. The foxes run over the mountain of Zion, which by the heathen there must lie waste. Ah! Lord! Who eternally remainest and whose Lordship is without end, thou will even now not quite forget us. For we have become a derision to our enemies in all 4 ends of the world. Dost thou not hear our cry? Wilt thou not eternally forsake us? Lord bring us again to thee and to our brethren, in our home, in order that our days be renewed with the age. Ah! Thou art too angry with us! Remember us yet, and give us compassion. We must bear disgrace which our fathers did wrong and deserved, and made themselves guilty, wittingly and unwittingly, from one tribe to another, thy anger is even so terrible that it will not cease.
Ah! Think yet on us again, and unite us with our brethren, who through thy hand are led out and rescued from Assyria. Now Lord remember, that we are thy property. Thou wilt hear us in order that from the enemies, to whom we are delivered, the haughtiness will be taken, who calumniate Thy Name and say: Your God has forsaken you, we will badly trouble and plague you and are regarded as dogs among them. Fulfill the prediction of the Prophet Zephaniah C.3 V. 12 seg. Which he calls in thy name. I will let thee remain a poor and downtrodden people because thy Lord thee will call. Then the wicked will cease with the remnant in Israel. Your mouth will no more be false and treacherous, without fear will thee find Rest and delight, then will Israel rejoice and the daughter of Zion rejoice, that their Savior and Rescuer has come, who releases them from their enemies. Then the chastiser will cease. The Messiah as thy King will then be with thee. Fear thee not Zion and let the hands not be tired, till you are again gathered in Jerusalem, for God thy Lord is with thee as a strong Savior, he will again be friendly to thee and rejoice over thee, because thy misdeeds he has forgiven and thy sins sealed up. Then will the Lord collect all the rest, as a clucking hen her chickens and one will hear the sound of the sack, but in all ends of the world. Then will thy tormenters desist form their laws, and thy disgrace will be terminated, for I will end it with the task-masters and release thee from the tormenters, and will all the lame collect from the exiles in all lands. I will make you before the enemies eyes be praised and honoured among all the people on earth. With power will I lead thee, says the Lord. The Prophets Malachai and Elias will I send to you at that time, and will gather you, ere the great day of the Lord comes for judgment over all heathens. Then will the children seek the heart of the father, and I will turn the heart of the father again to them, before the time comes, that the earth with the excommunication is smitten. Time is soon at an end. Dear Brethren suffer it, for it will not be long, the deliverance is near. In order that I make the beginning, therefore a consolation to you I have made possible, so have I here written down the secrets of our Fathers in order that the tribute you gave to the Romish Emperor, and you also under the bond of servitude can help the poor prisoners be released for the praise of the Holy God. Therefore will I teach thee the preparation of the Metals in Asophol and Diana, thereby with certain words and figures, of such a pattern, in order that with your hands you may lay hold of it, and how you shall prepare the Fire of the Lord, which was so lost, when the time comes to trouble your enemies therewith, that for your protection have it at hand, further will I show you the place where our fathers walled up and buried the secrets as Jerusalem was laid to waste by the emperor Titus Vespasianus, in order that you may tell your children, and also can show, for no heathen will find the place, but only the brethren.
The marks stand to this hour, that even a blind man among you will be able to find it, but only when the great Prophet Elias will be present. For if you have likewise all marks you will get it not till this time comes. Some, it is true have already gone out of their wits, and have sought and found the place, but at opening of the same has fire sprung out, that they have partly perished.
Therefore guard yourself, that this Book come not into your enemies hands, that the anger of the great God be never more raised over you.
Jeremiah 31:21
Set thee up waymarks, make thee high heaps: set thine heart toward the highway, even the way which thou wentest: turn again, O virgin of Israel, turn again to these thy cities.
Set thee vp way-markes; make thee high heaps: set thine heart toward the high way, euen the way which thou wentest: turne againe, O virgine of Israel, turne againe to these thy cities. - 1611 King James Bible

Now, I know that the bird up there is a dodo, but, since we just mentioned something in another thread regarding the Philosophal Stone and something called Gryphon's Gold, it is worth noting that there is also a Gryphon in the tale of Alice and her 'adventures underground.' So, then, this would be a most 'logical' place to find a reference to our Abraham the Jew, and Nicholas Flamel, don't you think? Lolol... But it is... See what I found... The Gold of the North in Abraham the Jew
“ On the other side of the fourth leaf, he painted a fair flower on the top of a very high mountain, which was sore shaken with the North wind; it had the foot blue, the flowers white and red, the leaves shining like fine gold: and round about it the Dragons and Griffins of the North made their nests and abode.”
So the legendary alchemist Nicolas Flamel informs us in his ‘Hieroglyphical Figures of the Book of Abraham the Jew’. This is just one of seven images that he details for us from this strange tome, but it is quite rich in meaning and purpose...
...almost all of the images from the Book of Abraham the Jew (with the exception of the image of Hermes and Chronos) derive straight from the Hebrew Bible! Therefore, as Flamel’s account makes clear, it is more than necessary to understand from the Hebrew Bible, and therefore Jewish Kabbalah (or Cabala/Qabbalah; however you fancy to spell it), what these images are supposed to represent. I have outlined below the major elements contained in this image and their possible meanings. I have utilized both Bible and mythology to explain each element.
1. THE MOUNTAIN: According to many verses from the Bible, God has His abode on a mountain top. I am reminded of passages such as Isaiah 14:13 and Psalm 48:2. This is an idea or belief shared by many mythologies and cultures around the world. Mount Olympus is but one example. Therefore, I see this as a sign that in order to learn the secrets of Alchemy, you must first make contact with the Divine residence. Geometrically speaking, the pyramid is also seen as the abode of God and there are many, this author included, who believe that this sacred geometry plays a huge role in the secrets of Alchemy and is, in fact, the shape of the Universe! The Grail Key, as presented by Mr. Burden, can also be viewed as the heavenly view looking down on the pyramid, which would appear as a square with an X in it! “X marks the spot”, as Indiana Jones said in ‘The Last Crusade’ while in the library looking for the Grail map!
This idea can also be found in Plato’s ‘Timaeus’ and, as we shall see, there is more going on with those great Egyptian monuments that few realize! It is good to keep in mind that Egypt is where the name Alchemy comes from!
2. THE FLOWER: ‘I am the rose of Sharon and the lily of the valleys’ Song of Solomon 2:1. I need not remind anyone here of the importance of the rose in Rosicrucianism and the occult. This is a famous title of Christ and the Maranatha puzzle makes clear that it is also a symbol for “Truth, protected in it’s tender frame“. Time to expose things that are “sub rosa”.Flamel informs us that it appeared in the Book of Abraham with a blue base, and with red and white flowers, gold leaves, and blown with the North wind... Even here, we must break this flower down into it’s constituent parts:
A blue base reminds us that God appeared on Mount Sinai (here we have our mountain again) on a sapphire pavement! See Exodus 24:10. When Ezekiel has his vision of God from the North, He appears on a sapphire throne! See Ezekiel 1:26. I find it fitting that the birthstone for September (the month I was born) is the sapphire, considering that two of the most important Jewish feasts occur in this month, which are the New Year and Sukkoth (the Feast of Tabernacles). The Feast of Tabernacles is supposed to represent God taking up residence or ‘tabernacling” with man, as can be seen in the referenced Exodus passage. It is also considered by many scholars to be the time of year that Christ was born, which would fulfill a prophetic pattern here, but this is beyond the scope of this article, so let’s move on.
If you look back at the previous referenced verses, God’s mountain is always seen as coming from the North! See also Ezekiel 1:4. The flower also has red and white leaves which speaks of the white and red stages of the Philosopher’s Stone...So, here we meet up with our Philosophal Stone again... 'fancy meeting You here'... lol... but I can't say I didn't expect it; I hope that if you've been reading along, you're seeing the patterns come together, and there is no need to say anything about it, unless you feel so inclined. It's just kind of... fun... to watch, don't you think? Or not... We will continue with more excerpts from this excellent commentary written by Nate Beck, and taken from here... please read the full piece, if you can, it is wonderful. Really. mysteriouswritings.com/the-gold-of-the-north-in-abraham-the-jew/Oh, brother... karaoke...

So, let's continue on with a bit more information from that piece before we come to the writer's 'conclusion;' this is really Good stuff, and makes certain 'connections' more... sensible...
Additionally, in Revelation 12, Satan appears as a great red dragon attempting to swallow the woman’s child. She is clothed with the sun and moon, and so appears dazzling white! I am reminded of the story of Chronos here, and the alchemical overtones in these passages are simply amazing! In Song of Solomon chapter 5, the prince is said to be white and ruddy, which means of a reddish complexion... Red, White and Blue are also seen as representing Mercury (blue), Sulphur (red) and salt (white). It’s not without meaning that this very thing was given in clues for the Maranatha puzzle. Our blue apples may not be fit for eating after all...
3. THE DRAGONS AND GRIFFiNS OF THE NORTH: Now here is where things get really complicated...
In the Bible, in the visions of the prophets John and Ezekiel, we are met with some rather strange and terrifying creatures. Now forget everything that you think you know about the following term...
Some unlearned amateurs got together during the Renaissance period and thought it would be cute to confuse the terminology “Cherub” and “Cherubim” with the images of Cupid... however, that is NOT what a cherub is...
It’s Cherub for singular, Cherubim for plural...
You can explore these wonderful monsters in Ezekiel chapters 1 and 10, Revelation chapter 4 and Genesis chapter 3. They appear as follows: A beast with four faces; that of a man, lion, eagle and ox. Six or sometimes four wings apiece, with hoofs and wheels and rings, (flying saucers anyone?) and they are God’s Throne-room guardians. They were dispatched to guard the Tree of Life and also were part of the decor on the golden Ark of the Covenant...
Now, let us remember that in Greek mythology, the creatures known as Griffins, or Gryphons depending on who’s writing, are, like our Cherubs, a composite creature of eagle and lion. Of course this only accounts for two of the creatures that make up a Cherub, but you get the point. There is something very interesting you ought to know about these things according to Greek mythology. They are guardians of a particular metal. Care to guess? That’s right, they guard the gold of the north! Not only that, but they guard this treasure from characters called the One-eyed horsemen...
In Job chapter 37:22, it says in the KJV that ‘Fair weather cometh out of the north, with God is terrible majesty.” Well, as it turns out, the Hebrew word translated ‘fair weather’ is ‘zahab’, which is also the Hebrew word for gold! The idea here being that a beautiful and bright day that shines like gold would come from the North where God is! After all, you have to use the same letters whether it’s GOLD, GOOD or GOD...
So, here we meet with, among other things, the beginning of a concept of a 'Golden Dawn,' don't we...? And a 'cherub,' or Gryphon, that guards the 'Gold of the North,' if not the Tree of Life...
Now, this is all symbolic, of course... mostly...
Of course, 'we' aren't the only ones looking for this 'gold' or 'Good;' there is an 'opposite' faction that seeks not our 'good,' but its opposite, which is... 'evil'... and its 'power' is gained by 'sacrificing' to its' 'honored' figurehead,- the 'Devil.' The thing is, I'm not altogether convinced that your 'devil' is still Lucifer...
If you know what I mean...
I think somebody else put that 'mask' on, too... and that reminds me of a(nother) Twilight Zone episode... but not the one with the 'living dummy'...
With a wink and a nod to the poster known as 'Killuminati'... roflolol...

CONCLUSION
So, now we’ve come full circle. A mountain of God, located in the North, where God’s treasure is guarded by creatures that, in my opinion, gave rise to the Griffins of Greek mythology. These things were also known as the ‘hounds of Zeus’.
Man, ox, eagle, lion= water, earth, air, fire.
There are many other things that can be said about the importance of these amazing creatures and their purpose. In fact, these things have so much influence, that they are even part of pop culture.
I cite the following examples: In the film ‘Sherlock Holmes’, starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law, which features a pseudo-Masonic-like secret society, our famous detective comes to a realization using the parts of an ox, eagle and man that leads him to the geographical location of the lion in London!
In ‘Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade’, it is only “with a leap from the lion’s head will he prove his worth’ in obtaining the Grail! In the Maranatha puzzle, Mr. Burden tells us to look at the lions’ face!
In Revelation, the four beasts guard an emerald throne and streets of gold . Trip to Oz anyone? L. Frank Baum, you genius you!
You ever stop to wonder why a monster with a man’s head and lion’s body keeps watch over the treasures of Egypt?
Thank you again, Nathaniel Beck, for your 'thoughts,' and having made them available in this way... I shortened parts for 'length,' but otherwise made no changes, and will leave the link again, as there is more to the story... as always... lolol... mysteriouswritings.com/the-gold-of-the-north-in-abraham-the-jew/Now, let's see... Alice's gryphon was the 'friend' of a 'mock turtle,' if I'm not mistaken... as in 'false' or 'mocking'...? Or both...?

Now, I would like to introduce yet another 'mysterious' subject to the 'mix,' lol... that, at first glance, would seem to have no bearing on our Abraham, nor anything else much... at first glance. But, here in 'Wonderland,' we look twice... or thrice... and then sometimes I kind of squint my eyes up, and just wonder... and this is one of those things. I read, and re-read, the quote above, and wondered... where? And how could it be safe... and possibly 're-claimed,' so to speak... And I got an answer. Yep. Now, I can't say that it's 'right' for certain... but I have a feeling... and a lucky quarter... that says I am. And if I am... well... Anyway, please re-read the passage above, and then I want to take you down... to a field... Let me take you there... (Hay, Jimmy Page...lol...) With thanks to Youtube poster 'Schubie2'... Very nice...

Well, you probably noticed that I included a quote from the prophet Jeremiah in the piece above, because I felt that it was... relevant to the subject at hand, somehow. Now, I think I know why... So, just quickly, I'm going to ask you to read a little story, which actually follows close on the heels of Jeremiah 31:27, which tells me a couple of things... first, that it is 'related' to the quote given above, and secondly, that it is important... to the prophet Jeremiah, certainly, and to future events, generally, I'm fairly certain. Read it through, and then, I want to tell you a little 'parable,' or another kind of story, about a field... I think you know that one... or not... Jeremiah 32:6-12 6 And Jeremiah said, "The word of the LORD came to me, saying, 7Behold, Hanamel the son of Shallum your uncle is coming to you, saying, "Buy for yourself my field which is at Anathoth, for you have the right of redemption to buy it."' 8"Then Hanamel my uncle's son came to me in the court of the guard according to the word of the LORD and said to me, 'Buy my field, please, that is at Anathoth, which is in the land of Benjamin; for you have the right of possession and the redemption is yours; buy it for yourself.' Then I knew that this was the word of the LORD. 9"I bought the field which was at Anathoth from Hanamel my uncle's son, and I weighed out the silver for him, seventeen shekels of silver. 10"I signed and sealed the deed, and called in witnesses, and weighed out the silver on the scales. 11"Then I took the deeds of purchase, both the sealed copy containing the terms and conditions and the open copy; 12and I gave the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, in the sight of Hanamel my uncle's son and in the sight of the witnesses who signed the deed of purchase, before all the Jews who were sitting in the court of the guard.…There are several 'interesting' points made here; first, it is was 'purchased' by a 'family member,' and it would be given by right of inheritance, most likely, to the 'claimant.' I don't see that anyone has... and there are copies of this deed, witnessed, sealed, and hidden, somewhere. The field is in the 'land of Benjamin,' and the Benjamites are of particular interest to the Priory of Sion, according to their 'documents'... and so far, nobody can quite figure out 'why.' There may be a couple of reasons, but I think that this is one of them... there was a reason to purchase that particular field, and carefully record it for the 'future.' An heir, maybe... And maybe... just maybe... that is why 'bloodlines' are important in all of this, and not necessarily for the 'royalty' angle at all (although, men are certainly eager to believe that, too... and there is the fact that alchemy is referred to as the 'Royal Art,' and therefore, the possessor of its secrets would be True 'royalty,' wouldn't they? Maybe...),- it belongs to somebody. And so do the 'family secrets' that it contains... and only an 'heir' can put them to use... Just sayin'...

Okay, don't stop me if you've heard this one... lolol... Matthew 13:44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.

Those are the four 'node' points where no amount of intelligence or good cheer or whinning will ever change. The points that must be given utmost respect and consideration for their seeming 'lack' of consideration as it were. lol They do their buisness regardless of our attitude toward their buisness. The business of sustaining ... :popcorn: *giggles* Gosh, I'm sorry that took so long to post... I had a loss, and generally slow responses from H(Al), et al... but I felt like I needed to get that out there, before it went the way of many a good thought... Up in smoke... Anyway, you make a very valid point; after all, if a thing is True, it is supported on all levels... and certainly, this illustration seems to testify to the 'truth' of what it is that you say... The 'world' is 'anchored,' if you Will, by these four 'fixed entities'... the directions, the seasons, the elements, and perhaps even these 'node' points that you mention, although I have a feeling that those are more 'cyclical' in nature, and due to an 'elliptical' or egg-shaped 'circuit' or path, they are somewhat difficult to pinpoint. You see...? Generally, 'they' can know when they are coming, but specifically... no. It just kind of 'slips in on you.' I think... I really am glad you showed up... Now, I've got to check your other post... Oh, goodie... thank you. It's always more fun this way...

Now, just for fun, let me show you some Magic... And the best part is, that none of this was 'planned;' it just sort of happened that way... and that's how magic works, really... Please notice that the card given above, 'the World,' is number 21... Black Jack... See entry number 21... Baaahahaha... "Nothing up my sleeve..."
