               being expelled. According to Ussher’s timetable, Creation took place in the fall of 4004 BC,
               therefore Adam and Eve would have left the Garden of Eden in the fall of 3997 BC.

                       Another ancient manuscript, The Epistle of Barnabas, relates the 6-day creation week as
               symbolic of Jahwah's 6,000-year plan for the earth.


                       “And even in the beginning of the creation he makes mention of the Sabbath.  And Elo-
                       him made in six days the works of his hands; and he finished them on the seventh day,
                       and he rested the seventh day, and sanctified it.  Consider, my children, WHAT THAT
                       SIGNIFIES; he finished them in six days.  The meaning of it is this: that in six thousand
                       years Jahwah Elohim will bring all things to an end.  For with him one day is a thousand
                       years; as himself testifieth, saying, ‘Behold this day shall be as a thousand years.  There-
                       fore children, in six days, that is, in six thousand years, shall ALL THINGS BE ACCOM-
                       PLISHED.’  And what is that he saith, And he rested the seventh day: he meaneth this;
                       that when his Son shall come, and abolish the season/time of the Wicked One, and judge
                       the ungodly; …..then he shall gloriously rest in that seventh day” (the binding of Satan a
                       1,000 years – a thousand year day of Sabbath rest). (Barnabas XIII:3-6)

                       If man’s curse of working the earth corresponds with the 6-day Creation week, i.e. 6,000
               years of work, this would bring us to the year 2004 AD from the year 3997 BC – Adam and Eve’s
               expulsion from the Garden of Eden.  Has mankind made a full circle?  Are we back at the Tower
               of Babel, reaching for the stars?

                                                     Judgment on Babel

                       Judgment is coming! Judgment is coming on Babel! Jeremiah 51:1-58 has much to say
               about Babel and its pending judgment.  In order to understand the fullness of Babel, Jeremiah 51
               must be continually compared with Revelation 12, 13, 17, and 18.  Just as it says in II Peter 1:20:
               “Knowing this first, that no prophetic writing is made clear in its own book” (Peshitta), we have to
               compare various books to get a clear understanding of what Jahwah is saying about Babel.

                       Thus saith Jahwah “I am stirring up destroyers against Babel/Babylon, against the dwell-
                       ers in Chaldea;  (or “Thus saith Jahwah: ‘Behold, I will raise up against Babel, and
                       against them that dwell in the midst of them that rise up against Me, A DESTROYING
                       SPIRIT.)

                       “Spirit” in Hebrew is “ruwach,” which can also mean by extension “a region of the sky”.
               Since the pagan week involves worship of lights in different regions of the sky which leads to false
               sabbaths, could this read “a destroying region of the sky”?

                       I am sending winnowers on Babel/Babylon, to winnow her and leave her bare.  They will
                       besiege her from all sides on her day of disaster/affliction/doom.  Let the archer bend his
                       bow; let him stand ready in his armour; spare not her young men, destroy her whole army.
                       They will fall slain in the land of Chaldea (astrology), fatally wounded in her streets for
                       THEIR LAND IS FULL OF GUILT AGAINST THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL…….Flee
                       out of the midst of Babylon/Babel, and deliver every man HIS SOUL.  Be not cut off in
