The Battle of Panium was essentially spiritual warfare. Just before the Sunday law the eighth president, who is the sixth since Ronald Reagan at the time of the end in 1989, who is also the last Republican president, and who is the richest president, and who also stirs up all the realm of globalism, will lead apostate Protestantism in defeating the Greek religion of Pan, which is the “woke-ism” of globalism. In verses eleven and twelve, the history that begins at the Ukraine War in 2014 concludes at the Sunday law in verse sixteen. Verse fifteen is the Battle of Panium, and the Battle of Panium leads to the battle of Actium, which is the third World War.

At the hour of “the great earthquake”, which is the Sunday law of verse sixteen, Islam of the third woe attacks the United States, angering the nations, and producing national ruin. It is the Battle of Panium that precedes that attack. At the Sunday law the threefold union of the dragon, the beast and false prophet is established.

Saʼaatii “kirkira guddaa” sanaatti, inni seera Dilbataa keeyyata kudha jahaati, Islaamni balaa sadaffaa kan taʼe Ameerikaa Yunaayitid Isteetis weerara; kunis saboota ni aarsa, badiisa biyyaalessaas ni fida.

> “By the decree enforcing the institution of the Papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with Spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near.” Testimonies, volume 5, 451.

> “Murtee papasummaa seera Waaqaatiin faallaa taʼee dhaabuun, sabni keenya qajeelina irraa guutummaatti of addaan ni kutti. Yommuu Pirootestaantiin harka ishee qileensa addaan baasu sana ceesistee harka humna Roomaa qabattu, yommuu boolla gad fagoo sana irra ceetees harka Ispeeriitualizimii walii qabattu, yommuu tokkummaa gosa sadii kanaa dhiibbaa jala biyya keenya mootummaa Pirootestaantii fi reepabilikaawaa akka taate keessatti qajeelfama Heera ishee hundumaa ganuu fi sobaa fi gowwoomsaa papasummaa babalʼisuuf qophii gootu, yeroo sana hojii dinqisiisaa Seexanaa eegalamuu fi dhumni dhihaatee akka jiru beekuu dandeenya.” Testimonies, volume 5, 451.

At that point, the papacy’s deadly wound is fully healed, and she rules supremely until she finally comes to her end with none to help. It is when Rome conquers the third obstacle that she rules, as represented by pagan Rome in Daniel chapter eight, verse nine, and in chapter eleven, verses sixteen through nineteen. When papal Rome removed the three horns, she ruled supremely for twelve hundred and sixty years, as did pagan Rome rule supremely for three hundred and sixty years once it conquered Egypt, the third obstacle at the Battle of Actium in 31 BC.

Yeroo sanatti madaa du’aa ishee guutummaatti fayyeera; isheenis hamma dhuma ishee gaʼuutti, eenyu iyyuu gargaarsa isheef hin argamnetti, aangoo olaanaa guutuun mootummaa ishee ni geggeessiti.

In grammar, the suffix “ium” is added to the end of a word to form a noun that denotes a place, a state, or a collection of something. It is commonly used in the formation of technical and scientific terms, particularly in chemistry and biology. For example: “stadium” refers to a place for athletic competitions or other events, “aquarium” refers to a place where aquatic organisms or plants are kept for display and “gymnasium” refers to a place for physical exercise or training. In scientific terminology, “ium” is often used to indicate a chemical element or compound, particularly when the element or compound has been isolated or discovered. For example: “sodium” refers to a chemical element with the symbol Na, “calcium” refers to a chemical element with the symbol Ca.

Naannoo keessatti, jecha maqaa bakka, haala, yookaan walitti qabama wanta tokko ibsu uumuuf dhuma jechaatti xumuri “ium” dabalamti. Kun baayʼinaan jechoota teeknikaa fi saayinsii uumuuf ni fayyada, keessumaa keemistirii fi baayoloojii keessatti.

Jechoota saayinsii keessatti, “ium” yeroo baayʼee qaama keemikaalaa yookaan walnyaatinsa keemikaalaa agarsiisuuf ni fayyada, keessumaa yeroo qaamni yookaan walnyaatinsi sun adda baafamee yookaan argame. Fakkeenyaaf: “sodium” qaama keemikaalaa mallattoo Na qabu agarsiisa; “calcium” immoo qaama keemikaalaa mallattoo Ca qabu agarsiisa.

The beginning of pagan Rome ruling supremely was accomplished at the Battle of Actium, and the Battle of Panium opened the door to the war represented by Actium, for “line upon line” Actium represents the Sunday law when the papacy again rules the world supremely.

Jalqabummaan Roomiin warra waaqeffannaa sobaa olaantummaa guutuun bulchuu jalqabuu isaa waraana Actium keessatti raawwatame; waraanni Panium immoo balbala waraana Actiumiin bakka buufameef bane; sababiin isaas, “sarara irratti sarara” jedhuun, Actium seera Dilbataa yeroo abbootiin amantii Phaaphaasii deebi’anii addunyaa guutuu olaantummaa guutuun bulchan bakka bu’a.

Actium was a sea battle, and Panium was a ground battle, thus the connection of the two battles represents a battle that is worldwide encompassing land and sea. Actium, the most famous sea battle of ancient history, also represents a worldwide war, for the “waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.” Panium represents a spiritual war that is combined with a political war at the soon coming Sunday law.

Atiyam loltuu galaanaa ture, Paaniyamis loltuu lafa irraa ture; kanaaf walitti hidhamiinsi loltoota lamaan kun lola addunyaa guutuu kan lafa fi galaana hammatu bakka bu’a. Atiyam, loltuu galaanaa seenaa durii keessatti baay’ee beekamaa ta’e, lola addunyaa guutuu illee bakka bu’a; jechuunis, “bishaanota ati argite, iddoo sagaagaltuun taa’te san, saboota, tuuta hedduu, mootummaa adda addaa, fi afaanota.” Paaniyam lola hafuuraa kan yeroo seerri Dilbataa dhufuuf jedhu sanatti lola mootummaa wajjin walitti makamu bakka bu’a.

The word “pan” as a noun, has multiple meanings depending on the context, but in Greek mythology, Pan is the god of shepherds, flocks, rustic music, and wilderness. He is often depicted as a half-man, half-goat figure, known for his love of music and nature.

Jechi “pan” jedhu akka maqaaatti, akka haala dubbii irratti hundaa’uun hiika hedduu qaba; garuu, afoola Giriik keessatti Pan waaqa tiksootaa, bushaayee horii, muuziqaa baadiyyaa, fi gammoojjii ti. Inni yeroo baay’ee akka namaa fi re’ee walakkaa walakkaatti fakkeeffamee ni mul’ata; jaalala inni muuziqaafii fi uumamaaf qabuun beekama.

> “As the crowning act in the great drama of deception, Satan himself will personate Christ. The church has long professed to look to the Saviour’s advent as the consummation of her hopes. Now the great deceiver will make it appear that Christ has come. In different parts of the earth, Satan will manifest himself among men as a majestic being of dazzling brightness, resembling the description of the Son of God given by John in the Revelation. Revelation 1:13–15.” The Great Controversy, 624.

> “Akkuma hojii xumuraa gowwoomsaa guddaa keessatti, Seexanni mataan isaa Kiristoosin fakkeessuuf ni ka’a. Waldoonni bara dheeraadhaaf dhufaatii Fayyisaa akka guutummaa abdii ishee taʼetti ilaaluu of irratti himattee jirti. Amma garuu gowwoomsaan guddaan Kiristoos dhufeera jechuun akka fakkaatu ni taasisa. Kutaalee addaddaa lafaa keessatti, Seexanni akka uumama ulfina qabeessa ifa irraa calaqisuun guutame tokkootti namoota gidduutti of ni mulʼisa; kunis ibsa Ilma Waaqayyoo waaʼee Yohannis Mulʼata keessatti kenneen wal fakkaata. Mulʼata 1:13–15.” The Great Controversy, 624.

Pan is the shepherd-god, and will personate the true Shepherd. Satan’s impersonation of Christ begins at the Sunday law for at “the decree” “we may” then “know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near”.

Paan inni tiksee-horsisaa ti; Innis Tiksaa Dhugaa fakkeessuudhaan of mul’isa. Fakkeessuun Kiristoos kan Seexanaatiin raawwatamu seera Dilbataatti jalqaba; sababiin isaas “labsii” irratti “nuyi ni dandeenya” achumaan “beekuu akka dandeenyu yeroo hojii dinqisiisaa Seexanaa sun dhufeera, akkasumas dhumni dhihoo ta’eera” jechuu keenyaati.

The word “pan” can also refer to a shallow, wide-rimmed cooking vessel used for frying, baking, or cooking food. The final war is centered upon spiritual Jerusalem, the holy mountain that is lifted up as an ensign, and the mountain that God’s other flock that are still in Babylon flee unto. At that time all nations will come against spiritual Jerusalem, which is identified as a “cup” (pan).

Jechi “pan” jedhamuunis qodaa nyaataa diriiraa, afaan balʼaa qabu kan waa bilcheessuuf, waaduuf, yookaan nyaata qopheessuuf itti fayyadaman agarsiisuu ni dandaʼa. Waraanni inni dhumaa Yerusaalem hafuuraa irratti giddugaleessa godhata; isheen tulluu qulqulluu kan mallattoo taatee ol kaafamtedha, akkasumas tulluu hoolota Waaqayyoo kaan warri amma iyyuu Baabilon keessa jiran itti baqatanidha. Yeroo sana saboonni hundinuu Yerusaalem hafuuraa irratti ni kaʼu; isheen immoo “xoofoo” (pan) jedhamtee adda baafamti.

> The burden of the word of the Lord for Israel, saith the Lord, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him. Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it. Zechariah 12:1-3.

> Baʼaa dubbii Waaqayyoo kan Israaʼeliif taʼe, jechuun Waaqayyo, inni samii diriirsu, hundee lafaa kaaʼu, hafuura namaa immoo isa keessatti uumu. Kunoo, ani Yerusaalem saba naannoo ishee jiran hundumaaf xoofoo hollannaa taatu nan godha; yeroo isaan Yihudaa fi Yerusaalem irratti marfamanii dhufanitti. Guyyaa sanattis ani Yerusaalem dhagaa baʼaa saba hundumaatiif taatu nan godha; warri ishee baatan hundinuu ni cicciramu, yoo saboonni lafaa hundinuu ishee irratti walitti qabaman illee. Zakaariyaas 12:1-3.

Jerusalem is also the caldron, for it is the pan where the drama is carried out. A “caldron” is a cooking pan.

ⵢⴻⵔⵓⵙⴰⵍⴻⵎ ⵜⴻⵍⵍⴰ ⴷⴰⵖ ⴷ ⴰⵍⵇⴷⵔⵓⵏ, ⵎⵉⵏⵣⵉ ⴷ ⵏⴻⵜⵜⴰⵜ ⴷ ⵜⴰⵡⴰ ⴰⵏⴷⴰ ⵜⴻⵜⵜⵓⵙⴻⵍⴽⴰⵎ ⵜⴰⵎⵣⵓⵏⵜ. “ⴰⵍⵇⴷⵔⵓⵏ” ⴷ ⵜⴰⵡⴰ ⵏ ⵜⵙⴻⴽⴽⵉⵡⵜ.

> Then said he unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city: Which say, It is not near; let us build houses: this city is the caldron, and we be the flesh. Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man. And the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus saith the Lord; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the things that come into your mind, every one of them. Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye have filled the streets thereof with the slain. Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Your slain whom ye have laid in the midst of it, they are the flesh, and this city is the caldron: but I will bring you forth out of the midst of it. Ye have feared the sword; and I will bring a sword upon you, saith the Lord God. And I will bring you out of the midst thereof, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you. Ye shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the border of Israel; and ye shall know that I am the Lord. This city shall not be your caldron, neither shall ye be the flesh in the midst thereof; but I will judge you in the border of Israel: And ye shall know that I am the Lord: for ye have not walked in my statutes, neither executed my judgments, but have done after the manners of the heathen that are round about you. Ezekiel 11:2–12.

> Akkas jedheen naan, Ilma namaa, warri kun namoota hammina yaadan, magaalaa kana keessattis gorsa hamaa kennan dha; isaanis, “Yeroon isaa hin dhihaanne; manoota haa ijaarrannu; magaalaan kun qodaa dha, nus foon dha” jedhu. Kanaaf isaan irratti raaji, eeyyee raaji, yaa ilma namaa.

Hisqi’el 11:2–12.

In English, “pan” as a prefix means “universal,” “all” or “across”. For example, “panorama” refers to a wide or comprehensive view of an area, “pantheism” refers to the belief that the universe is divine, and “Pan-American” refers to something involving all the countries of the Americas. Thus “pan” identifies a worldwide war.

Afaan Ingiliziitiin, “pan” jechuun akka jalqabaa jechaatti “guutummaa,” “hundumaa” yookaan “guutuu irratti” jechuudha. Fakkeenyaaf, “panorama” jechuun ilaalcha bal’aa yookaan guutuu naannoo tokkoo agarsiisa; “pantheism” jechuun amantii yunivarsiin waaqeffamaa ta’uu isaa ibsuudha; akkasumas “Pan-American” jechuun waan biyyoota Ameerikaa hunda hirmaachisu agarsiisa. Kanaafuu “pan” lola addunyaa guutuu agarsiisa.

> “Satan is diverting minds with unimportant questions, in order that they shall not with clear and distinct vision see matters of vast importance. The enemy is planning to ensnare the world.

> “Seexanni dhimmawwan barbaachisummaa hin qabneen sammuu namootaa karaa biraatti geessaa jira; akka isaan dhimmawwan ulfina guddaa qaban ifaafi adda ba’een hin argineef. Diinni addunyaa kiyyoo keessa galchuuf karoorfataa jira.

> “The so-called Christian world is to be the theater of great and decisive actions. Men in authority will enact laws controlling the conscience, after the example of the Papacy. Babylon will make all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. Every nation will be involved.” Selected Messages, book 3, 392.

> “Addunyaan Kiristaanaa jedhamtu kun gochaawwan gurguddoo fi murteessoo ta’an itti raawwataman ta’uuf jirti.

Sabni hundinuu keessatti ni hirmaata.” Selected Messages, book 3, 392.

The word “act” as a noun means “a formal written decision or statute enacted by a legislative body.”

Jechi “act” jedhu maqaa taʼee yommuu dhimma itti bahu, “murtoo yookaan seera barreeffamaan qophaaʼe kan qaama seera baasu tokkoon hojii irra oole” jechuu dha.

> “When our nation shall so abjure the principles of its government as to enact a Sunday law, Protestantism will in this act join hands with popery.” Testimonies, volume 5, 712.

The so-called Christian world is a theater of great actions, or acts, and every nation (pan) will be involved. The word “act” can also refer to a division or segment of a play, movie, or other performance, typically characterized by a particular set of events or actions. The word “act” as a verb, means to perform a specific action or behave in a certain way. It can also refer to pretending or playing a role, as in acting in a play or film.

Addunyaan Kiristaanaa jedhamee waamamu teessoo gochaawwan gurguddoo, yookaan raawwiiwwanii, ti; sabni hundinuu (pan) keessatti ni hirmaata. Jechi “act” jedhu akkasumas qoodama yookaan kutaa tapha, fiilmii, yookaan agarsiisa biraa, yeroo baayʼee tuuta taateewwanii yookaan gocha addaa tokkoon mulʼatu, agarsiisuu ni dandaʼa.

Akkasumas, fakkeessuu yookaan gahee tokko taphachuu, akka nama tapha yookaan fiilmii keessatti taphatuutti, agarsiisuu ni dandaʼa.

> “The world is a theater. The actors, its inhabitants, are preparing to act their part in the last great drama. God is lost sight of. With the great masses of mankind there is no unity, except as men confederate to accomplish their selfish purposes. God is looking on. His purposes in regard to his rebellious subjects will be fulfilled. The world has not been given into the hands of men, though God is permitting the elements of confusion and disorder to bear sway for a season. A power from beneath is working to bring about the last great scenes in the drama,—Satan coming as Christ, and working with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in those who are binding themselves together in secret societies. Those who are yielding to the passion for confederation are working out the plans of the enemy. The cause will be followed by the effect.

> “Addunyaan kun masaraa dha. Taphattoonni ishee, jechuunis jiraattota ishee, diraamaa guddaa isa dhumaa keessatti qooda isaanii taphachuuf qophaaʼaa jiru. Waaqni ijaan irraa badeera.

> “Transgression has almost reached its limit. Confusion fills the world, and a great terror is soon to come upon human beings. The end is very near. We who know the truth should be preparing for what is soon to break upon the world as an overwhelming surprise.” Review and Herald, September 10, 1903.

> “Cubbuun hamminaa gaʼeera. Burjaajii addunyaa guuteera, sodaan guddaan immoo yeroo dhihoo keessatti ilmaan namoota irratti dhufuuf jira. Dhumni baayʼee dhihoo dha. Nuyi warri dhugaa beeknu waan yeroo dhihoo keessatti akka dinqisiisaa guddaadhaan addunyaa irratti buʼuuf jiruuf of qopheessuu qabna.” Review and Herald, September 10, 1903.

Panium and Actium represent the third World War. In that war there will be supernatural manifestations as represented by the Greek goat-god Pan. The war will be associated with the enforcement of the Sunday law as an “act.” And the war is identified as “the last scenes in the great drama”, for it is not only the legal act of enforcing Sunday legislation, it is also the climax of the gospel drama in the closing hours of human probation. In advance of the battle where Panium and Actium prophetically join, in verse sixteen of Daniel chapter eleven, God’s last-day army will already be raised up, and their banner, which is an ensign, will then be lifted up. The primary meaning of “ensign” is the banner of an army.

Paaniyemii fi Aaktiyemiin waraana addunyaa isa sadaffaa bakka bu’u. Waraana sana keessatti mul’atawwan humna uumamaa ol ta’an ni jiraatu; kunis akka waaqa re’ee Giriikii Paaniin bakka bu’etti agarsiifama. Waraanni sun raawwii seera Dilbataa akka “gocha” tokkootti hojii irra oolchuudhaan wal qabata. Waraanni sunis “mul’atawwan dhumaa riqicha guddaa sanaa keessatti” jedhamee ni beekama; sababiin isaas inni gocha seeraa qofa miti kan seera Dilbataa hojii irra oolchu, garuu sa’aatii xumuraa yeroo qorannoon namaa xumuramu keessatti xumura riqicha wangeelaa illee ta’a.

Hiikni jalqabaa “mallattoo waraanaa” jedhuu alaabaa loltootaa ti.

Act and Pan are Actium and Panium, and the Wonderful Linguist controlled the geography, the names, and the history of both battles, for it is the history immediately before the soon coming Sunday law. The Battle of Panium took place in 200 BC, and verse sixteen identifies Rome conquering Jerusalem in 63 BC.

Aktii fi Paan immoo Aktiimii fi Paaniimii dha; Inni Afaan dinqisiisaa taʼe sun lola lamaanii kana lamaanis teessuma lafaa, maqaa isaanii, fi seenaa isaanii toʼateera; kunis seenaa battaluma dura seera Dilbataa dhufuuf jedhu sanaa duraa dha. Lolli Paaniimii bara 200 Dh.K.D. keessatti raawwatame; kutaan kudha jahaffaan immoo Roomaan Yerusaalem bara 63 Dh.K.D. keessatti moʼachuu adda baasa.

Between the history in the last days that is represented by the period from 200 BC to 63 BC, the formation of the image of the beast in the United States will be accomplished, as represented by the history of 161 BC to 158 BC. Before the period where the final movements of erecting an image of the beast in the United States, there will be an event represented by the revolt of Modein in 167 BC. The revolt is typified by the revolt against the forced religion of Greece, and the revolt will lead to a waymark represented by the rededication of the temple in 164 BC.

Seenaa guyyoota dhumaa keessatti kan yeroo 200 Dh.K.D. irraa jalqabee hanga 63 Dh.K.D. tti bakka bu’amee jiru gidduutti, bifa bineensichaa Ameerikaa keessatti ijaaruun ni raawwatama; kunis seenaa 161 Dh.K.D. irraa hanga 158 Dh.K.D. tti jiruun bakka bu’ameera. Yeroo sochiiwwan xumuraa bifa bineensichaa Ameerikaa keessatti dhaabuuf ta’an dura, taatee ka’uumsa Modein kan bara 167 Dh.K.D. bakka bu’u tokko ni jiraata.

164 BC is commemorated by Judaism because of the miracle of a day’s worth of holy oil lasting for eight days. Thus 164 BC, which precedes 161 BC, identifies a satanic miracle that was accomplished for the apostate people of God. The miracle is represented as one day producing eight days, and that first day’s oil was what supplied the entire eight days. The miracle was brought upon the one part that was of the seven, and this waymark is set within the very history where the enigma of the eighth that is of the seven is being accomplished upon both the apostate Republican horn and the apostate Protestant horn.

164 BC’n Yihudummaan ni yaadatta, sababni isaas dinqiin zayitii qulqulluu guyyaa tokkoof gahuun guyyoota saddeetiif tures. Kanaaf 164 BC, kan 161 BC dura jiru, dinqii Seexanaatiif sabni Waaqayyoo irraa duubatti deebi’eef raawwatame adda baasa. Dinqiin sun akka guyyaan tokko guyyoota saddeet uumeetti bakka bu’a; zayitiin guyyaa jalqabaa sanaas isa guyyoota saddeet guutuu dhiheesse ture. Dinqiin sun kutaa tokko, isa keessaa torban keessaa ta’e irratti fide; akkasumas mallattoon daandii kun keessatti seenaa isa dhoksaan “saddeetaffaan, isa torban keessaa ta’e” gaanfa mootummaa Republican irraa duubatti deebi’ee fi gaanfa Pirootestaantii irraa duubatti deebi’e lamaan irratti raawwatamaa jiru sanatti kaa’ameera.

The manifestation of satanic miracles before the soon coming Sunday law is associated with the Greek god Pan. When the Battle of Panium is waged and won by Trump and apostate Protestantism, “Pandora’s box” will have been opened, and there will be no way to solve the problems that are then released upon mankind for, “a great terror is soon to come upon human beings. The end is very near. We who know the truth should be preparing for what is soon to break upon the world as an overwhelming surprise.”

The one hundred and forty-four thousand are those that have been sealed by the sanctifying power of God’s Word which was provided through the unsealing of the Revelation of Jesus Christ. That Revelation includes several specific lines of truth, and it provides sanctified instruction of who Jesus is. As the Word of God, He is the Wonderful Linguist who has controlled all human language, since through His power He brought about the various languages when He rained down confusion at the tower of Babel. He is the Wonderful Numberer that has hidden secrets with the numbers set forth in His Word, and within His entire creation. He is the controller of history, for history is “His”-story. He created the earth and He controlled the geographical form of planet earth after the Flood, and therefore the various prophetic geographies that make up the “truths” found in His Word. The one hundred and forty-four thousand represent among other things, those who manifest faith that He created all things.

The story of Pandora’s box is a myth from ancient Greek mythology. It is primarily recounted in “Works and Days” by the Greek poet Hesiod and in various other classical sources. It is obviously a paraphrase of the experience of Eve in the Garden of Eden. The name “Pandora” comes from ancient Greek mythology. It is derived from the Greek words’ “pan” meaning “all,” “dora’ meaning “gifts.” Pandora means “all-gifted.” Eve is the symbol of the church, and all gifts are found within God’s church.

Seenaan “Saanduqa Paandooraa” durii afoola Giriikii keessaa tokko dha. Innis irra caalaatti kitaaba “Works and Days” jedhu keessatti, kan geessituu walaloo Giriikii Heesiyoodii barreesse, akkasumas maddoota kalaasikaa garaagaraa keessatti ni himama. Inni ifatti muuxannoo Hewaan Beerta Eeden keessatti qabdutti hiika jijjiirameedha. Maqaan “Paandooraa” afoola durii Giriikii irraa dhufe. Innis jechoota Giriikii “pan” jechuun “hundumaa,” fi “dora” jechuun “kennaawwan” jedhan irraa madda. Paandooraan jechuun “kan kennaawwan hundumaan guutame” jechuudha. Hewaan fakkeenya waldaa kiristaanaa ti; kennaawwan hundinuu immoo waldaa Waaqayyoo keessa jiru.

In Greek mythology, Pandora was the first mortal woman created by the gods. According to the myth, she was crafted by Hephaestus at the command of Zeus, the king of the gods, as part of a plan to punish humanity. Each of the gods contributed gifts to Pandora, including beauty, grace, intelligence, and charm. Zeus gave her a jar (in later retellings, it became a box) and instructed her never to open it under any circumstances. Eve was told she could eat of every tree except of “the tree in the midst of the Garden.”

In Greek mythology, Pandora was the first mortal woman created by the gods. Akka seenaa waaqeffannaa Giriik keessatti, Paandooraan dubartii du’aa qabeettii jalqabaa waaqoliiin uumamte turte. According to the myth, she was crafted by Hephaestus at the command of Zeus, the king of the gods, as part of a plan to punish humanity. Akka seenaa sanaatti, isheen karoora ilmaan namaa adabuuf qophaa’e keessaa, Hefeestuusiin ajaja Zews, mootii waaqolii, irratti hojjetamte. Each of the gods contributed gifts to Pandora, including beauty, grace, intelligence, and charm. Waaqolii keessaa tokkoon tokkoon isaanii bareedina, miidhagina, ogummaa, fi hawwataa ta’uu dabalatee kennaa Paandooraaf gumaachan. Zeus gave her a jar (in later retellings, it became a box) and instructed her never to open it under any circumstances. Zews okkotee tokko isheedhaaf kenne (deebisanii himuuwwan boodaa keessatti, sun saanduqa ta’e), haala kamiyyuu keessatti akka ishee hin banees ishee ajaje. Eve was told she could eat of every tree except of “the tree in the midst of the Garden.” Heewaanis muka hunda irraa nyaachuu akka dandeessu, garuu “muka gidduu iddoo biqiltuu sana keessa jiru” irraa akka hin nyaanne itti himame.

Pandora, overcome by curiosity, eventually succumbed to temptation and opened the jar. Upon doing so, all the evils, pains, and diseases that had previously been kept inside were released into the world, spreading suffering and misery among humanity. However, one thing remained in the jar: hope. In some versions of the myth, Pandora quickly closed the jar, preventing hope from escaping, while in others, hope also emerged, providing humanity with a glimmer of optimism and resilience in the face of adversity.

Yeroo kana gootus, hammina, dhiphina, fi dhukkuboonni kanaan dura keessa keessatti cufamanii turan hundinuu gara addunyaatti gadhiifamanii, ilmaan namoota gidduutti dhiphinaa fi rakkina babalʼisan.

The Battle of Panium joins the Battle of Actium at the soon coming Sunday law, and the soon coming Sunday law was typified by the test in the Garden of Eden. In the garden the test was simply for Adam and Eve, but in the last days the test needed to confront all mankind around the entire world. The first test of believing or disbelieving God’s Word in the garden typifies the last test of the Sunday law. Eve failed that first test and opened the floodgates of woe upon mankind, as represented in the myth of Pandora.

Lolli Phaaniyamii fi lolli Actiyemii seera Dilbataa dhiheenyatti dhufu waliin walitti makama; seerri Dilbataa dhiheenyatti dhufus qormaata keessa Iddoo Eeden keessatti tureen fakkeenfame.

Qormaanni jalqabaa inni Dubbiin Waaqayyoo amanuu yookaan amanuu dhabuu irratti iddoo biqiltuu keessatti taʼe, qormaata dhumaa seera Dilbataa sana fakkeessa. Hewaan qormaata jalqabaa sana kuftee, akkuma afoolla Paandooraa keessatti bakka buufametti, balbala badiisaa rakkina hundaa ilmaan namaa irratti bante.

When the Battle of Panium joins the Battle of Actium, the test represented in the Garden of Eden will open upon all mankind. The hope that is then provided for the world is the ensign that is lifted up for all the world (panorama) to see.

> “The world is a theater; the actors, its inhabitants, are preparing to act their part in the last great drama. With the great masses of mankind, there is no unity, except as men confederate to accomplish their selfish purposes. God is looking on. His purposes in regard to His rebellious subjects will be fulfilled. The world has not been given into the hands of men, though God is permitting the elements of confusion and disorder to bear sway for a season. A power from beneath is working to bring about the last great scenes in the drama,—Satan coming as Christ, and working with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in those who are binding themselves together in secret societies. Those who are yielding to the passion for confederation are working out the plans of the enemy. The cause will be followed by the effect.

> “Never did this message apply with greater force than it applies today. More and more the world is setting at naught the claims of God. Men have become bold in transgression. The wickedness of the inhabitants of the world has almost filled up the measure of their iniquity. This earth has almost reached the place where God will permit the destroyer to work his will upon it. The substitution of the laws of men for the law of God, the exaltation, by merely human authority, of Sunday in place of the Bible Sabbath, is the last act in the drama. When this substitution becomes universal, God will reveal Himself. He will arise in His majesty to shake terribly the earth. He will come out of His place to punish the inhabitants of the world for their iniquity, and the earth shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.

The highest excitement prevails, yet probation’s hour is fast closing, and every case is about to be eternally decided. Satan sees that his time is short. He has set all his agencies at work that men may be deceived, deluded, occupied, and entranced until the day of probation shall be ended, and the door of mercy forever shut.
