I appreciate your concern, Thirdwoe. I will not respond with hate or cynicism because I believe I understand from where your concern comes.
When I posted again a short time time ago, I told others that I was worried that I would receive just this type of response.
I don't believe the response is warranted.
I would request that you look at a few verses for a moment.
Revelation 7: 13 - 14 and the verses that follow (not quoted here for space reasons. I already have too many too long posts)
[13] Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, "Who are these, clothed in white robes, and whence have they come?"
[14] I said to him, "Sir, you know." And he said to me, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
If it could be shown that the "Great Tribulation" occurred when Alexander Jannaeus lived in the mountains for 6 years, under attack from the Greek general Demetrius, the Pharisees and mercenary Jews, would that be important? These survivors hunger no more, neither thirst anymore. They are sheltered by he who sits on the Throne. If this person on the Throne was thought at the time to be Alexander Jannaeus, would that be important? Do you know what Jannaeus did when he returned to Jerusalem? Woe to those women who are pregnant with child or give suck in those days! Is that important to know?
Salome gives these survivors refuge in the fortresses. If this is where they live their lives, what do they do? The Herodians and Romans occupy the government. The Pharisees occupy the bureaucracy. Is this important?
These people are linked with those who have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the...."IMMAR". Sorta' like..."IMMER".
But these are sorta' like...the Alpha and Omega of the Mishmarot Service Groups under what might called The House of Eleazar. So the Priesthood is the only place left for the Hasmonaeans and the descendants of Eleazar. Remember, Hannah prayed for the redemption of Jerusalem. Is this important?
Is it important at this point to even care to know who Alexander Janneaus was? IF NOT, WHY NOT?
This isn't a "Private Interpretation", a phrase obviously meant to isolate me here. Is it important to see if there is in fact a History here, a History written in
Aramaic, not Greek? I'm not a Mythicist or one of the others. If there is a History of the Jewish People that was stolen, ripped to shreds and then rewritten to a different end, would that be important?
C'mon, Thirdwoe, answer these questions. It's important.
