She was adopted by Simmas and he looked after her as his own naming her Semiramis.When she was come of age she married Onnes, an officer of the kings cout. It is said that tempests of wind sent by God against the Tower of Babel overthrew it, and that Nimrod perished in its ruins. Alexander Hislop used an Egyptian myth that was associated with Osiris, Isis and Horus and because as he claimed they are Egyptian versions of the earlier gods he proceeded to input those beliefs back into history even though this story is not told of anywhere by anyone that included Nimrod, Semiramis and Tammuz. In the history of mankind, Nimrod stands unequalled for his symbolism of evil and Satanic practices. . The Pagan Trinity is a purely heathen concept, adapted by the Roman Catholic Church and sadly by other denominations as well. God is not three different persons all rolled into one, neither a complex unity as some Christians like to teach. 1 Timothy 3:16 what is the correct reading? Semiramis was the latter name of Inanna, Dumuzi's cousin. There are many other myths from Grecian to Egyptian to Babylonian and Assyrian that Hislop simply glues together to form his story. Semiramis is not stated as being Nimrods wife, they are are not described as the King and Queen of Babylon and never described as having a son. The age of Ninus, the husband of Semiramis, as stated in a former note, according to Eusebius, synchronised with that of Abraham, who was born BC 1996. The official publication of "The Blue Army of Our Lady of Fatima," boasting 22 million members, claims: Mary is so perfectly united with the Holy Spirit that He acts only through His spouse. Nimrod is never referenced as having a wife or a child. The name, Bel, also means the Confounder.[vi] Cush likely assisted in the planning and building of the Tower of Babel. Alexander Hislop creates this story himself a story that is never told or known by anyone before him.Hislop used historically incorrect information of Eusabius, Diodorus Siculus and Ctesias of Cnidus in particular, in his work and so came to conclusions that were simply shown incorrect when new historical data was found. . However the works of Ctesias of Cnidus no longer remain in full today, they are found only in citations and epitomies of other writers such as Diodorus Siculus, Pompeius Trogus who are both cited as sources for his information by Hislop in his book and also Nicolaus, who all published writings between 36 BC and 9 AD and all of which based their chapters on Assyrian history from the writings of Ctesias in his Persika. The empire, from this point on, was dominated by Persians, or as the Bible says, the "bear . The answer to this question is indeed much simpler than the way in which Alexander Hislop went about drawing his conclusion. The religion of the Persians was Zoroastrianism, a dualistic belief in good and evil and man's struggle between them. The Anunnaki used to marry their first and second degree relatives, in order to preserve their "royal" blood and the right to the throne. Semiramis became a powerful ruler in Mesopotamia following the death of Nimrod. And so Semiramis became queen. He has even been called one of the lying historians, J. R. Morgan (Univ. However, polytheism began in the minds of Cush, Nimrod and Semiramis, who heavily suffused the mystery religion of Babylon with human deification. He may very well have thought that the way in which he connected the dots was correct. The Birth of Tammuz And Polytheism Gilgamesh kills the bull under the instructions of his friend Enkidu. Most people will be aware of the claims made regarding Nimrod, Semiramis and Tammuz. Tammuz, the son of Semiramis and Nimrod, falsely calling himself the sun god, was born on the Winter Solstice, which on the ancient pagan calendar is December 25th. Now i'm certainly not saying that this is the case for everyone, there are many highly studied people who still believe this. Hence, the name mystery religion of Babylon refers to its secretive nature. And so we come to the story of Osiris, Isis and Horus that are apparently just the retelling of the story of Nimrod ,Semiramis and Tammuz. The Bible never states that Nimrod built the tower of Babel and it never mentions how or indeed when he died. He then uses some things that are attributed to Ninus such as being warlike and a hunter.These attributes are linked to Nimrod through similarities. That's it. Myths from civilizations of antiquity describe the sun god (deified Nimrod) fathered Tammuz using a sunbeam to impregnate the maiden Semiramis. Thus, then, Nimrod, or Ninus, was the builder of Nineveh; and the origin of the name of that city, as "the habitation of Ninus," is accounted for, * and light is thereby, at the same time, cast on the fact, that the name of the chief part of the ruins of Nineveh is Nimroud at this day. This simply has no factual historical basis. He initiated the rebellion against God. He wrote that gods and their associated legends arose from the deification of dead human heroes.[i]. The Egyptians commemorated Cush as the god Hermes, which means son of Ham. Hermes was recognized as the author of religious rites and the interpreter of the gods. He said that Semiramis and Nimrod's incestuous male offspring was the Akkadian deity Tammuz, and that all divine pairings in religions were retellings of this story. There is no historical evidence for the claim beyond the writings of the Greek historians. They may have studied the sources cited by Hislop to support his theory but modern knowledge proves this false. Yet separating fact from fiction is of fundamental importance in order to obtain true history. Onnes then hung himself with a rope. Inanna (Semiramis) was known as Ishtar in Babylon, Isis in Egypt and the son/husband was Osiris - the sun god. The act showed that the people had accepted other "gods" and were performing rituals that the pagans did. Eusebius says that Ninus and Semiramis reigned in the time of Abraham., For the age of Shem see Genesis 11:10, 11. Priests and astrologers obeyed her commands and aggressively marketed the mystery religion. The statement of Plato amounts to this, that the famous Thoth was a counsellor of Thamus, king of Egypt. God or he/who/which In 1 Timothy 3:16 should it read God was manifest in the flesh or he/who was manifest in the flesh? [ix] Henry Morris; The Genesis Record; p. 265. Nimrod is the sun god, his wife was Semiramis and their son was Tammuz. Hislop used historically incorrect information of Eusabius, Diodorus Siculus and Ctesias of Cnidus in particular, in his work and so came to conclusions that were simply shown incorrect when new historical data was found. Nimrods Babylonian followers worshipped him as Marduk the god of war and fortresses. The Assyrian king list of Eusebius which Hislop used in order to place Semiramis at the time of Nimrod is incorrect. The original pagan festival of "Easter" was a sex orgy that celebrated the return of life via the fertility of Ishtar's conception of Tammuz. His theory continued. So both Nimrod and Ninus being the most ancient King of Assyria. Its a troubling question. But its principle of dualism lived on in Gnosticism and the mystery religions of the Roman Empire. If every pagan religion is simply the retelling of the same story then the story should in essence stay the same or at least be similar. At the time when Hislop penned his book, Assyrian and Babylonian studies was in its infancy. So the question must be asked, a question that is vitally important to the understanding of this theory. The pregnant woman described in this passage is Gods chosen nation, Israel. Greeks deified Nimrod as the god, Adonis. The history of queen/goddess as prostitute/brothel owner is not the material of good legends. Ezekiel saw them involved in a rite in which they were mourning the death of a Mesopotamian god whose myth said he was resurrected to new life, a mockery of the redeeming death and life-giving resurrection of the true Son of God. 135 Merrill and Maye Rd. All 3 have had many more names accredited to them. Nimrod Ninus Nordic Odin Pagan Trinity Phoenicians Ra Rome Semiramis Tammuz Thor Trinity Virgin Mary Vishnu Zeus Contents Just to be clear, the concept that God is a "Trinity" is nowhere in the Bible. The answer to this question is indeed much simpler than the way in which Alexander Hislop went about drawing his conclusion. A long description of the building of the city itself is given. Another of Inannas sisters, Erec-ki-gala is the queen of the underworld. Deified Cush was revered as several gods of ancient mythology. Nimrod's wife was Semiramis, who claimed to be the Virgin Queen of Heaven, and was the mother of Tammuz. If nobody before Alexander Hislop had ever written about Nimrod , Semiramis and Tammuz together how did he come up with the theory in the first place? These heathen trinities, found in most polytheistic religions, follow the Father-Mother-Son pattern: Osiris, Isis and Horus; Nimrod, Semiramis and Tammuz; Zeus, Diana, Dionysus; Jupiter, Venus and Cupid; etc. Moms of Miracles does not offer medical, or psychiatric advice nor do we make any claims. For they have filled the land with violence; then they have returned to provoke Me to anger.". In relation to this, the word inferior itself ('ara') means "earth, world, ground." However, the trajectory of this factor in all these kingdoms is, according to the prophecy, downward, and it sinks further with each new empire. There is no mention of this goddess in Norse writings. There is nothing in the Bible that would even hint at the narrative let alone give us this story. Nimrod had a plan to weld together and strengthen this evil religious system and so he married his own mother who was Semiramis. The infant represents the Seed of the woman, prophesied thousands of years earlier in Genesis 3:15. Only the superior might of Alexander's Macedonian army spelled its downfall. In the city Semiramis is said to have erected statues of Greek gods including Zeus and Rhea. Hence Hislops etymological inventiveness which traced wordsto Chaldee roots, is irrelevant in establishing linguistic links to Nimrods Babylon and Assyria. (St. Bernard, ibid.). Ishtar has her mind set on the underworld. As we have access to the Eternal Father only through Jesus Christ, so have we access to Jesus Christ only through Mary. Herods massacre of infants in the city of Bethlehem was a horrific attempt to accomplish that goal. But no matter of the extent of his convictions or the nature of his intent, wrong he was and wrong he remains. I hope this year will be a good one for all. This story of Nimrod, Semiramis and Tammuz in any form regardless of the details or variation is found nowhere in the Bible. She was the first deified queen of Babylon and Nimrod was the first deified king. The child awaits delivery by the laboring woman (Israel). Just to be clear, the concept that God is a Trinity is nowhere in the Bible. Prior to the discovery of the Assyrian king lists on the cuneiform tablets, scholars only had access to the full kings list of Eusebius and a list found in the the Excerpta Latina Barbari. And it is actually in the writings about Ishtar that we are introduced to Tammuz. She became a stumbling block for the Jews and their leaders who first settled this area for many generations. However Gilgamesh rejects her advances reminding her of her past and her former lover of her youth Tammuz. Semiramis ruled for more than forty years after Nimrods death. The story of Semiramis comes to us primarily from Diodorus Siculus who is cited by Hislop in the Book. The circumstances of that end, however, as antiquity represents them, are clouded with fable. Furthermore Tammuz was not a king of Egypt and the connection between Thamus, Tammuz and Osiris is illogical and just doesn't hold up. No matter how many people believe or retell this story it will remain the concoction of Alexander Hislop and nothing more. As the myth grows of Semiramis being a "gift of the sea" and becoming pregnant from a beam of light she becomes known as the Queen of Heaven.

The city and mountain of Nimrud in Turkey. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: 2 John 1:10 KJV. Inanna (Semiramis) was known as Ishtar in Babylon, Isis in Egypt and the son/husband was Osiris the sun god. Semiramis is also credited with building other cities along the Euphrates and Tigris rivers.It is then stated that she built the stone obelisk to herself. However as already shown we now know that the language of the Akkadians was not Chaldean but Sumerian and so this assertion by Hislop although may well have been the understanding at his time of writing has since been shown to have been false, Professor Bruce writes. So it cannot be stated that the story is a biblical one. Semiramis is not stated as being Nimrods wife, they are are not described as the King and Queen of Babylon and never described as having a son. He built his empire through the means of conquest. He proclaimed himself high priest of the mystery religion of Babylon. Stele of Sammuramat, queen of Shamshi-Adad, King of the Universe, King of Assyria, Mother of Adad Nirari, King of the Universe, King of Assyria, Daughter-in-Law of Shalmaneser, King of the Four Regions of the World. All of which are attested to by the kings list of the Assyrians. Better than the last few have been. Bringing with it the revelation that previously believed history was actually not history at all. We are introduced to the concept of and the significance of the son through this myth. This day was celebrated as the day Nimrod was reborn as Tammuz. She visited many countries before returning to Bactra. If Osiris was Nimrod, as we have seen, that violent death which the Egyptians so pathetically deplored in their annual festivals was just the death of Nimrod. Ishtar being yet another name and another retelling of Semiramis. She claimed a full-grown evergreen tree sprang overnight from a dead tree stump, which symbolized the springing forth unto new life of the dead Nimrod. Marduk was also the Roman god Kronos, whose name means, 'the horned one.' Ancient artists often depicted Nimrod wearing a crown of bullhorns. Charles Whitaker (1944-2021) Nimrod became the Roman god Bacchus, which means, the son of Cush. Bacchus was god of wine and revelry. Less than 175 years ago when Alexander Hislop made this claim in his infamous book the 2 babylons. The video on Youtube said so.They even gave the evidence, which so turns out to be the information provided in the 2 babylons bookand round in a circle we go. Many learned individuals have taught polytheism was the evolutionary forerunner of monotheism. This is obviously some sort of pagan sunrise service, in which they honor the sun more highly than God, to whom they contemptuously show their backsides. In fact, one of her titles, as used by the present Pope, a devoted Marian, is "Queen of Heaven" (Jeremiah 7:18; 44:17-19, 25)! [viii] Alexander Hislop: The Two Babylons; p. 26-28. Diodorus account again is based upon the writings of Ctesias. Then after he passed away, Semiramis declared him to be the sun god. Hislop tried desperately to explain this verse and make it seem as if it was in fact talking about Nimrod rather than Asshur, I am persuaded that the whole perplexity that commentators have hitherto felt in considering this passage, has arisen from supposing that there is a proper name in the passage, where in reality no proper name exists. He stated Semiramis lived five generations before Nitocris. Succeeding her husband for 42 years. The aims and drives of its kings were, as a whole, of a lower nature than Babylon's, though the latter's were certainly misguided as well. Semiramis is said to have survived her husband forty-two years. It would seem that history and myth have converged together and the Greek hellenistic writers have created a goddess out of a queen. We believe as you learn how they impacted history and how they continue to infiltrate the world today you will begin to understand satans agenda to deceive Gods children. Nimrod, Semiramis and Tammuz Indeed we know for a fact, using Hislop's own reasoning that we cannot do this. Hislop cites and calls upon the Plutarch for support regarding the myths of Osiris,Isis and Horus. If they are the same person just worshipped by different people under different names then this would be expected. What the Bible says about Plutarch then explains that this is simply allegorical.Again Plutarch explained that the myths of the Egyptians were never to be interpreted as factSimply over time the stories had changed. It was believed that it was the tears shed by the vegetation god that brought the rains and so during the wetter months the god was in the heavens however during the hotter summer months when the rain stopped this was when the vegetation god was in the underworld. Ishtar was an Akkadian goddess that PRECEDED the kingdom of Babylon. After victories in central Iran and in Phoenicia, he conquered Babylon in 539 BC, and his son Cambyses overthrew Egypt and Libya in 525 BC. But in what way was Medo-Persia inferior? It did, however, have a problem with internal unity. However Plutarch in his writings De Iside et Osiridedescribed the various and plentiful different versions of the myths both of the Egyptians and the Greeks relating to the story that revolves around these 3 characters. In the Read more, Why did God instruct stoning as a punishment? They found Babel, Ninevah, and Calah . These 3 characters being the start of pagan sun god worship throughout the world. There are many websites and youtube videos dedicated to proving their story. Now I am almost as certain, almost is the correct word, that Hislop believed what he wrote, that he was passionate and meant no harm by his deception, I highly doubt he was aware of the fact he was wrong. Maybe on this occasion we could give him the benefit of the doubt and say he was simply mistaken. - Tammuz "the son of Semiramis "( also known asHorus, Mithra, Krishna, Thor, Apollo, Hesus, aka) (whom they believe is re-incarnated Nimrod) . . . Many Jews who survived the onslaught were taken to Babylon to live the rest of their lives in slavery. He was a Greek who lived mainly in the 5th century BC. Also, each time an emperor died, severe struggles erupted over succession to the throne. The idea of inferiority seems to pass to the succeeding empires as well. If she has these powers and characteristics, then Mary must be God! Around this same time, Nimrod dies a violent and untimely death. By thee we have access to the Son, O blessed finder of grace, bearer of life, and mother of salvation. We must first know that this story had changed continuously throughout the many Egyptian dynasties evolving itself over the centuries as Plutarch was fully aware. . It is also a date common among pagan religions. Enkidu is punished and basically sentenced to death for this. Many historians up until the discovery of the cuneiform tablets had followed the works of Ctesias of Cnidus for Assyrian history. Hislop asserts that Semiramis was instrumental in Nimrod's plan to rebel against God, and he speaks of the woman's unusual ability to manipulate the will of men. I'm sure many modern Assyriologists would not be able to claim this so emphatically. Eusebius own works were summaries of Greek writers who drew upon Ctesias. There are literally thousands of counsellors today each being counsellor to more than one person that doesn't make each person the same person that's just a ridiculous conclusion. At its height the Persian Empire was nearly double the size of Babylon. However nowhere in ancient Akkadian writings is Ishtar ever described as having a husband who dies and then her claiming he became the sun god. Neither Ninus nor Semiramis are attested to by any of the kings lists which the Assyrians themselves compiled. Some features were disabled. Nimrod became "god-the-father", Tammuz became "god-the-son", and Semramis became the "dove" or "spirit" that held this holy union together. We now know that the original language of Babylonian religion, far from being what Hislop and his contemporaries called Chaldee (which was really Aramaic), was not a Semitic language at all, not even the Semitic tongue now called Akkadianbut Sumerian, a language with no certain affinity to any other known language. Sumerian, not Chaldee, was the language of primeval Babylon. Further to that there is not one single historical writing, including the talmud orthe writings of Josephus, that places these 3 together before Alexander Hislops book, which was written in the 1850s..AD. [41] These claims are still circulated among some groups of evangelical Protestants, [41] in the form of Jack Chick tracts, [42] comic books, and related media. The beginning of his kingdom is said in the Genesis passage to be Babel, Erech, and Akkad in the land of Shinar. Tammuz who was Damuzi is ripped out of the story of Ishtar and then simply forced into the Egyptian myth and becomes Horus the son. Old Testament Scriptures record the history of this momentous conflict over the millennia preceding the incarnation of Jesus Christ. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that he might devour her child who will rule all the nations with an iron scepter. Tammuz, Sumerian Dumuzi, in Mesopotamian religion, god of fertility embodying the powers for new life in nature in the spring. Hislop using evidence (Eusebius) to clearly identify Ninus as an ancient king of Assyria. Nimrod married a woman named Semiramis. It must be stated that there is no historical evidence that Semiramis lived at all, let alone at the time of Nimrod.

Inanna ordered that the people weep for Damuzi .The people would symbolically weep for Damuzi as in weep for instead of him. Study Materials to help with your Bible study. However, Semiramis commanded total authority over her subjects and clandestinely indoctrinated the priesthood with this mystery religion. In verse 17, God asks, "Is it a trivial thing to the house of Judah to commit abominations which they commit here [in the Temple!]? This could not be true, for we have sufficient evidence that the Tower of Babel stood long after Nimrod's day. The religion went underground hidden. . Then, in regard to the death of Ninus, profane history speaks darkly and mysteriously, although one account tells of his having met with a violent death similar to that of Pentheus, Lycurgus, * and Orpheus, who were said to have been torn in pieces. The truth This story of Nimrod, Semiramis and Tammuz in any form regardless of the details or variation is found nowhere in the Bible. Layard (in his Nineveh and its Remains) subscribes to this opinion. The king list of Eusebius in his Chronicle has Semiramis succeeding her husband Ninus who lived at the time of Abraham. If nobody before Alexander Hislop had ever written about Nimrod , Semiramis and Tammuz together how did he come up with the theory in the first place? must watch antichrist nimrod semiramis tammuz ancient babylon witchcraft by doc marquis So began the arduous task of decipherment. Most of the claims made by Alexander Hislop catch the attention, they draw upon the emotions, they feel like they are revelational, eye opening, revealed long lost hidden secrets that the devil wants so desperately to conceal, theologically sound and historically supported arguments. [iv] Alexander Hislop: The Two Babylons; p. 77). but the assertions regarding Ishtar are simply false. Semiramis has been worship under the names Ishtar, Astarte, Rhea and Isis to name just a few while Nimrod has been Ninus, Osiris and Baal. Ninus using this information would eventually capture Bactra. (Something that he repeated throughout his writing on this subject. The simple fact is the story has no historical basis and when studied is shown completely fictional. These leaders displayed no social responsibility whatsoever. Mercury purportedly divided the speech of men. Sir Henry Rawlinson started deciphering the previously unknown information contained on these tablets.
