Yeshua's 2 1/2 Year Ministry Timeline

Days of Repentance?

There are many hints that Yeshua's ministry began during the Days of Repentance. 

This is implied in the fact that Yochanan was calling people to repentance and ritual immersion. 
It is further implied by the fact that Yeshua spent forty days in the wilderness, which parallels the forty days of repentance which precede Yom Kippur.

The Shem Tob Hebrew text of Matthew 3:11 we are told that Yochanan baptized in the "days of repentance" rather than in the "waters of repentance".

“Sirens” in the Book of Enoch?

“Sirens” in the Book of Enoch? By James Scott Trimm In the Book of Enoch we read: “And the women also of the angels who went astray shall become sirens .” (1Enoch 19:2). Although the Ethiopic text has “ salamaweyan ” (“peaceful”) which is widely regarded as a corruption with the original reading being that found in the Greek εις σειρηνας “into sirens.”  This is certainly a passage which we would like to see in the Aramaic, much less the lost original Hebrew, but unfortunately the Aramaic for this passage has not survived. In Greek mythology, the Sirens were beautiful yet dangerous creatures, who lured nearby sailors with their enchanting music and voices to shipwreck on the rocky coast of their island.  So why would the Book of Enoch refer to “sirens”.  Why would an ancient Hebrew text refer to “sirens” and what was the original Hebrew word(s) behind “sirens”? “Sirens” in the LXX In the Greek Septuagint the Greek word σειρηνας (sirens) does...

Secrets of the Oath That Binds the Fallen Angels By James Scott Trimm We read in the Torah: 1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, 2 That the sons of Elohim saw the daughters of men, that they were fair. And they took them wives, whomsoever they chose. 3 And YHWH said: My Spirit shall not abide in man forever. For that he also is flesh; therefore shall his days be a hundred and twenty years. 4 The N’filim were on the earth in those days and also after that, when the sons of Elohim came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. The same were the mighty men that were of old--the men of renown. 5 And YHWH saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil; continually. 6 And it repented YHWH that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him at His heart. 7 And YHWH said: I will blot out man whom ...

Vatican Library Hid Original Hebrew Gospel Manuscripts for Centuries

The Vatican Library Hid Original Hebrew Gospel Manuscripts for Centuries By James Scott Trimm The Vatican Library is a treasure trove of ancient documents and artifacts.  While the public Vatican library was officially created in 1475, the library itself actually dates back to the origins of the Roman Catholic Church.  The library contains over 75,000 codices and over one million other books. In the 17th century about 150,000 items were designated as part of the "Secret Archives" and are not available to the public. Over a period of four centuries, only about 1,000 people have had access to these secret archives. One treasure which the Vatican famously suppressed for centuries was Codex Vaticanus 1209, known simply as Codex Vaticanus, or "Codex B".  Codex Vaticanus is one of the oldest, most complete manuscripts of the Greek New Testament dating back to the fourth Century C.E. Codex Vaticanus was listed in the first public catalog of the libr...
