## 627, 632 and 637

627, 632 no-637

The “key” that opens the bottomless pit is the battle of Nineveh, fulfilled in 627, five years before Mohammed died in 632. Five years later in 637, the Muslim forces captured the capital of Persia, one of the two great superpowers that engaged in the battle of Nineveh. This event dramatically shifted the balance of power in the Middle East. The battle of Nineveh in 627 sapped the strength of the Persian Empire and ten years later the Persian Empire ended.

“Isitshixo” esivula umhadi ongenasiphelo yimfazwe yaseNineve, ezalisekiswe ngowama-627, kwiminyaka emihlanu ngaphambi kokuba uMohammed afe ngowama-632. Kwiminyaka emihlanu kamva, ngowama-637, imikhosi yamaSilamsi yathimba ikomkhulu lasePersi, elinye kula magunya makhulu mabini abalaseleyo athabatha inxaxheba kwimfazwe yaseNineve. Esi siganeko satshintsha ngamandla ulungelelwaniso lwamandla kuMbindi Mpuma. Imfazwe yaseNineve ngowama-627 yawaphelisa amandla oBukhosi basePersi, yaye kwiminyaka elishumi kamva uBukhosi basePersi baphela.

## Humiliation—782

Ukuthotywa—782

One hundred and fifty years after Mohammed’s death in 632, in the Abbasid Campaign of 782, the Abbasid army (reportedly around 95,000 men) launched a massive invasion into Byzantine territory in Asia Minor (modern Turkey). They advanced all the way to Chrysopolis, directly across the Bosporus Strait from Constantinople—coming very close to the Byzantine capital. The Byzantines, under Empress Irene, suffered a serious defeat. As a result, the Byzantines were forced to sign a humiliating three-year truce, agreeing to pay a large annual tribute (around 70,000–90,000 gold dinars) and hand over silk garments and hostages. This campaign was one of the largest and most successful Abbasid incursions into Byzantine lands during the 8th century. It showcased the growing power of the Abbasid Caliphate and the continuing decline of the Byzantine Empire.

Kwiminyaka elikhulu anamashumi amahlanu emva kokufa kukaMohammed ngowama-632, kwiPhulo lama-Abbasid lowama-782, umkhosi wama-Abbasid (okuthiwa wawumalunga namadoda angama-95 000) waqalisa uhlaselo olukhulu kummandla woBukhosi baseByzantium eAsia Minor (iTurkey yanamhlanje). Baqhubela phambili de bafike eChrysopolis, ngqo ngaphesheya kweBosporus Strait ukusuka eConstantinople—besondela kakhulu kwikomkhulu laseByzantium. AmaByzantium, phantsi koMlawulikazi uIrene, afumana ukoyiswa okukhulu. Ngenxa yoko, amaByzantium anyanzeleka ukuba atyikitye uxolo lokunqumama kwemfazwe lweminyaka emithathu oluhlazisayo, evuma ukuhlawula umrhumo omkhulu wonyaka (malunga nama-70 000–90 000 eedinar zegolide) kwanokunikezela ngeengubo zesilika nabathinjwa. Eli phulo lalingelinye lawona mahlaselo makhulu nelaphumelela kakhulu ama-Abbasid awawenza kumazwe aseByzantium ngenkulungwane ye-8. Labonakalisa amandla akhulayo oBukhalifa bama-Abbasid nokuhla okuqhubekayo koBukhosi baseByzantium.

## Five months

Iinyanga ezintlanu

In Revelation chapter nine the “five months” that equates to one hundred and fifty years is mentioned twice; once in verse five and again in verse ten.

KwiSityhilelo isahluko sesithoba “iinyanga ezintlanu” ezilingana nekhulu elinamashumi amahlanu eminyaka zikhankanywa kabini; kube kanye kwindima yesihlanu, kwakhona kwindima yeshumi.

> And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. Revelation 9:5–10.

> Kwaye banikwa ukuba bangababulali, koko bahlutshwe iinyanga ezintlanu; yaye intuthumbo yabo yayingathi yintuthumbo kanomadudwane, xa ehlaba umntu. Kwaye ngaloo mihla abantu baya kufuna ukufa, bangakufumani; baya kunqwenela ukufa, ukufa kubabaleke. Kwaye iimilo zeenkumbi zazingathi ngamahashe alungiselwe idabi; yaye ezintlokweni zazo kwakungathi zizithsaba ezifana negolide, nobuso bazo babunjengobuso babantu. Zazineenwele ezinjengeenwele zabafazi, namazinyo azo ayenjengamazinyo eengonyama. Zazinezikhuselo zesifuba, kungathi zizikhuselo zesifuba zentsimbi; nesandi samaphiko azo sasinjengesandi seenqwelo zamahashe amaninzi agidimela edabini. Zazineemisila enjengoonomadudwane, yaye kwimimisila yazo kwakukho iimbovane; namandla azo ayekokwenzakalisa abantu iinyanga ezintlanu. ISityhilelo 9:5–10.

There are two distinct prophetic periods of one hundred and fifty years in Revelation nine’s fifth trumpet. The first is from the death of Mohammed in 632 unto the humiliation of the Empress Irene of Eastern Rome in 782. Chapter nine identifies the rise of Islam in a very detailed fashion. From the uniting of the tribes in 606, to the battle of Nineveh in 627, to Mohammed’s death in 632, then to the defeat of Persia in 637, the rise and fall of Islam is carefully traced in God’s prophetic Word. Islam of Arabia is the power in the first one-hundred-and-fifty-year prophecy of torment. The unification of the tribes by Mohammed in 606; then the “key” battle of Nineveh in 627, followed by Mohammed’s prediction of the demise of both Persia and Rome around 628, then on to his death in 632. These dates represent a specific sequence of events in the line of Islam.

Kukho amaxesha amabini ahlukeneyo esiprofeto eminyaka ilikhulu elinamashumi amahlanu kwixilongo lesihlanu leSityhilelo isahluko sesithoba. Elokuqala lisusela ekufeni kukaMohammed ngowama-632 lide lifike ekuthotyweni kweKumkanikazi u-Irene woBukhosi baseRoma baseMpuma ngowama-782. Isahluko sesithoba sichaza ukuvela kobuSilamsi ngendlela eneenkcukacha kakhulu. Ukusukela ekudityanisweni kwezizwe ngowama-606, ukuya emfazweni yaseNineve ngowama-627, ukuya ekufeni kukaMohammed ngowama-632, kuze ke kufike ekoyisweni kwePersi ngowama-637, ukunyuka nokuwa kobuSilamsi kulandelwa ngononophelo eLizwini likaThixo lesiprofeto. UbuSilamsi baseArabhiya bungamandla akweso siprofeto sokuqala seminyaka elikhulu elinamashumi amahlanu sentuthumbo. Ukumanyaniswa kwezizwe nguMohammed ngowama-606; kwaza kwalandela idabi “elingundoqo” laseNineve ngowama-627, lalandelwa sisiprofeto sikaMohammed sokutshabalala kwePersi neRoma zombini malunga nowama-628, kuze ke kufike ekufeni kwakhe ngowama-632. Le mihla imele ulandelelwano oluthile lweziganeko kumgca wobuSilamsi.

One hundred and fifty years after Mohammed died in 632, the power-base of Islam changed from Arabia to Turkey, as it drove Eastern Rome all the way back to Constantinople. The first woe represented the Islam of Arabia, and the second woe represented the Islam of Turkey. Within the first woe, both one-hundred-and-fifty-year time prophecies identify the distinction between Islam of Arabia and Islam of Turkey, just as is represented in the distinction of the same truth between the first and second woe.

Kwiminyaka elikhulu elinamashumi amahlanu emva kokuba uMohammed wasweleka ngowama-632, iziko lamandla e-Islam latshintsha lisuka eArabhiya laya eTurkey, njengoko yayityhala iRoma yaseMpuma ibuyela umva de yafika eConstantinople. Uvuthamelo lokuqala lwalumela i-Islam yaseArabhiya, yaye uvuthamelo lwesibini lwalumela i-Islam yaseTurkey. Phakathi kovuthamelo lokuqala, zombini iziprofeto zexesha zeminyaka elikhulu elinamashumi amahlanu zichaza umahluko phakathi kwe-Islam yaseArabhiya ne-Islam yaseTurkey, kanye njengoko oko kumelwa ngumahluko waloo nyaniso inye phakathi kovuthamelo lokuqala nolwesibini.

The first one hundred and fifty years began with the demise of Persia and ended with Rome being stuck within the walls of Constantinople. The second period of one hundred and fifty years began with Osman’s (also called Ottman) victory at Nicomedia. The Ottoman victory at Nicomedia refers to the Siege of Nicomedia (modern-day İzmit, Turkey), which took place from 1333 to 1337 when Sultan Orhan Gazi (son of Osman I, the founder of the Ottoman Beylik), laid siege to the important Byzantine city of Nicomedia. The city held out for several years, but eventually surrendered in 1337 due to starvation and lack of supplies. The Byzantine garrison was allowed to leave for Constantinople. Nicomedia was one of the last major Byzantine strongholds in Asia Minor (Anatolia). Its fall effectively ended Byzantine control in most of western Anatolia. This victory allowed the Ottomans to consolidate their power in Bithynia and expand further toward the Bosporus Strait. It was a major stepping stone toward the eventual Ottoman conquest of Constantinople (which happened over a century later in 1453). The siege is often seen as one of the key early victories that transformed the small Ottoman beylik into a rising regional power.

Iminyaka yokuqala elikhulu elinamashumi amahlanu yaqala ngokutshabalala kwePersi yaza yaphela iRoma ibambeke ngaphakathi kweendonga zaseConstantinople. Ixesha lesibini leminyaka elikhulu elinamashumi amahlanu laqala ngoloyiso luka-Osman (okwabizwa kananjalo ngokuba nguOttman) eNicomedia. Uloyiso lwama-Ottoman eNicomedia lubhekisela kuNgqingo lweNicomedia (i-İzmit yanamhlanje, eTurkey), olwenzeka ukususela ngowe-1333 ukuya kowe-1337 xa uSultan Orhan Gazi (unyana ka-Osman I, umseki we-Ottoman Beylik), wangqinga isixeko esibalulekileyo samaByzantium, iNicomedia. Isixeko saxhathisa kangangeminyaka emininzi, kodwa ekugqibeleni sanikela ngowe-1337 ngenxa yendlala nokunqongophala kwezinto zokubonelela. Umkhosi wokhuselo wamaByzantium wavunyelwa ukuba uhambe uye eConstantinople. INicomedia yayiyeyenye yeenqaba zokugqibela ezinkulu zamaByzantium eAsia Minor (Anatolia). Ukuwa kwaso kwaphelisa ngokwenene ulawulo lwamaByzantium kuninzi lweAnatolia yasentshona. Olu loyiso lwavumela ama-Ottoman ukuba aqinise amandla awo eBithynia aze ande ngakumbi esiya ngakwiBosporus Strait. Lwalulinyathelo elikhulu elikhokelela ekoyisweni kokugqibela kweConstantinople ngama-Ottoman (okwenzeka ngaphezu kwenkulungwane kamva ngowe-1453). Ingqingo le idla ngokubonwa njengenye yoloyiso oluphambili lwangaphambili olwaguqula i-beylik encinane yama-Ottoman yaba ligunya lommandla elalinyuka.

When the second one-hundred-and-fifty-year period within the first trumpet concluded on July 27, 1449 the last Constantine sought permission from the Islamic sultan to ascend to the throne of Eastern Rome, thus suffering the same humiliation that the Empress Irene suffered at the end of the first one hundred and fifty years of Revelation nine’s two “five-month” periods. The humiliation of ‘the Empress Irene’ and also of ‘Constantine the last’ typified the later humiliation of the Ottomans, when at the conclusion of the time prophecy of the second woe they sought protection from the four great European powers from the threat of Egypt.

Xa ixesha lesibini leminyaka elikhulu elineshumi elinesihlanu ngaphakathi kwexilongo lokuqala lafikelela esiphelweni ngomhla wama-27 kuJulayi 1449, uConstantine wokugqibela wafuna imvume kusultan wamaSilamsi ukuze anyukele etroneni yaseRoma yaseMpuma, ngaloo ndlela ehlupheka olo luhlazo lunye olwafunyanwa yiNkosazana uIrene ekupheleni kweminyaka elikhulu elineshumi elinesihlanu yokuqala yamaxesha amabini “eenyanga ezintlanu” eSityhilelweni sesithoba. Ukuhlaziswa kuka ‘uNkosazana uIrene’ kwanokuka ‘Constantine wokugqibela’ kwaba ngumfuziselo wokuhlaziswa okwalandelayo kwama-Ottoman, xa ekupheleni kwesiprofeto sexesha sentlungu yesibini afuna ukukhuselwa kumagunya amane amakhulu aseYurophu nxamnye nesoyikiso saseYiputa.

## The Pantheon

IPanteyon

The pioneers correctly understood and taught that the phrase “the place of his sanctuary was cast down” in Daniel eight and verse eleven was fulfilled by Constantine.

OoVulindlela baqonda kakuhle baza bafundisa ngokuchanekileyo ukuba ibinzana elithi “indawo yengcwele yakhe yaphoswa phantsi” kuDaniyeli isibhozo nendinyana yeshumi elinanye lazalisekiswa nguConstantine.

> Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

> Ewe, wazikhulisa wada waya kufika nkqu kwiNkosana yomkhosi; yaye ngaye umbingelelo wemihla ngemihla wasuswa, nendawo yengcwele yayo yawiswa phantsi.

The “sanctuary” here identified was the Pantheon temple in the city of Rome and the “place of” that temple was Rome. Rome was “cast down” by Constantine when he chose to move the capital of his empire to Constantinople in the year 330. Verse eleven connects with Revelation thirteen and verse two is identifying the same events.

“Ingcwele” echongiweyo apha yayiyitempile yePantheon kwisixeko saseRoma, yaye “indawo” yaloo tempile yayiyiRoma. IRoma “yawiswa phantsi” nguConstantine xa wakhetha ukufudusela ikomkhulu lobukumkani bakhe eConstantinople ngonyaka ka-330. Indima yeshumi elinanye inxulumene neSityhilelo seshumi elinesithathu, yaye indima yesibini ichonga ezi ziganeko zifanayo.

> And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.

> Irhamncwa endayibonayo yayifana nengwe, neenyawo zayo zazinje ngeenyawo zebhere, nomlomo wayo unjengomlomo wengonyama; yaza inamba yayinika amandla ayo, netrone yayo, negunya elikhulu.

The dragon was pagan Rome, and pagan Rome gave its “seat” of authority over to the Roman church in 330, when it moved the capital to the east, thus leaving a power vacuum which the papal church happily took advantage of. When we start the line of eastern Rome from the year 330 unto 1453, we find that at the start of the prophecy of eastern Rome, the city of Rome is humiliated by Constantine’s rejection of Rome. That humiliation was repeated with the Empress Irene in 782, at the conclusion of the first one hundred and fifty years of torment. Both those humiliations were repeated by Constantine the last.

Inamba yayinguRoma wobuhedeni, yaye uRoma wobuhedeni wanikela “isihlalo” sawo segunya kwicawa yaseRoma ngowama-330, xa wawusa ikomkhulu usiya empuma, ngaloo ndlela ushiya isikhewu segunya awathi icawa yobupopu yasixhamla ngovuyo. Xa siqala umgca weRoma yasempuma ukusuka kumnyaka wama-330 kuse kowe-1453, sifumanisa ukuba ekuqaleni kwesiprofeto seRoma yasempuma, isixeko saseRoma sathotywa kukwaliwa kweRoma nguConstantine. Oko kuthotywa kwaphindwa ngoKumkanikazi uIrene ngowama-782, ekupheleni kweminyaka yokuqala elikhulu elinamashumi amahlanu yentuthumbo. Kokubini oko kuthotywa kwaphindwa nguConstantine wokugqibela.

## Peculiar Rise and Falls

Ukunyuka nokuwa Okungaqhelekanga

The fifth and sixth trumpets of Revelation nine provide the details of the fall of eastern Rome, while also chronicling the rise and fall of Islam. Inspiration informs us to study the “rise and fall” of the kingdoms in the books of Daniel and Revelation. Those kingdoms possess their own distinct characteristics associated with their peculiar “rise and falls.” The fall of Judah was brought about by three attacks upon Jerusalem. The Hebrews were carried into Babylon and would return under three decrees, which would initiate the 2,300 years that led to the three angels arriving into history from 1798 unto 1844. Babylon fell in one night. Rome disintegrated, and within its disintegration two aspects of Rome were set forth under the location of either western or eastern Rome. The rise and fall of the Ptolemaic empire and the Seleucid empire in the first third of Daniel eleven typifies the rise and fall of papal Rome. That testimony is simply the conclusion of the story of Alexander and Greece’s dissolution. Unlike Rome, Greece divided into four parts that ultimately became two. Rome divided into east and west, and thereafter western Rome was divided prophetically into three, representing Rome’s threefold government. For eastern Rome, Constantine divided his kingdom unto his three sons. Clearly western and eastern Rome are parallel lines representing the Roman church and the Roman state. With that twofold division is a further threefold division. Greece was four into two, Babylon was one night, Judah was three attacks. With Islam, their “rise” is portrayed as a “release” and their “fall” is a “restraint.”

Ixilongo lesihlanu nelesithandathu leSityhilelo isahluko sesithoba zinika iinkcukacha zokuwa kweRoma yasempuma, kwangaxeshanye zibhala ukunyuka nokuwa kobuSilamsi. Umphefumlelo usixelela ukuba sifunde “ukunyuka nokuwa” kwezikumkani ezisezincwadini zikaDaniyeli neSityhilelo. Ezo zikumkani zineempawu zazo ezicacileyo ezinxulumene “nokunyuka nokuhla” kwazo okungaqhelekanga. Ukuwa kukaYuda kwaziswa luhlaselo oluthathu phezu kweYerusalem. AmaHebhere athinjelwa eBhabheli aza abuya phantsi kwemithetho emithathu, eya kuqalisa iminyaka engama-2,300 eyakhokelela ekubeni iingelosi ezintathu zingene embalini ukusuka kowe-1798 kuse kowe-1844. IBhabheli yawa ngobusuku bunye. IRoma yachithakala, yaye phakathi kokuchithakala kwayo kwabekwa phambili imiba emibini yeRoma phantsi kwendawo yeRoma yasentshona okanye yeRoma yasempuma. Ukunyuka nokuwa kobukumkani bamaPtolemy nobukumkani bamaSeleukos kwisahlulo sokuqala sesithathu sikaDaniyeli isahluko seshumi elinanye kufuzisela ukunyuka nokuwa kweRoma yobupopu. Obo bungqina sisiphelo nje sebali lika-Aleksandire nokuchithakala kweGrisi. Ngokungafaniyo neRoma, iGrisi yahlulwa yangamacandelo amane awathi ekugqibeleni aba mabini. IRoma yahlulwa yaba yimpuma nentshona, yaye emva koko iRoma yasentshona yahlulwa ngokwesiprofeto yaba ntathu, imela ulawulo lweRoma olunezintlu-ntathu. Ngokuphathelele iRoma yasempuma, uKonstantine wahlula ubukumkani bakhe koonyana bakhe abathathu. Kucacile ukuba iRoma yasentshona neRoma yasempuma yimigca ehambelanayo emele ibandla laseRoma norhulumente waseRoma. Kolo lwahlulo luphindwe kabini kukho kwakhona ulwahlulo oluphindwe kathathu. IGrisi yayisuka kwesine iye kwesibini, iBhabheli yayibusuku bunye, uYuda yayiluhlaselo oluthathu. Ngokubhekisele kubuSilamsi, “ukunyuka” kwabo kubonakaliswa “njengokukhululwa,” yaye “ukuwa” kwabo “kukuthintelwa.”

Their rise began with Mohammed and they were restrained on August 11, 1840. They were released and immediately restrained at 9/11. They were recently released on October 7, 2023 and have since been restrained in Gaza. Islam will be released again to mark the setting up of the image of the beast. The line of Islamic prophetic history that is represented in chapters nine through eleven in the book of Revelation, identifies the prophetic history of Islam of the third woe. ‘The prophetic history of Islam of the third woe’ is also represented by the seventh and also the third angel. The third angel arrived on October 22, 1844 when the seventh angel began to sound. The third angel and the third woe arrived into prophetic history at 9/11. From 9/11 unto the Sunday law the prophetic history of the first and second woes has been and still is, repeating.

Ukunyuka kwabo kwaqala ngoMohammed, baza bathintelwa ngomhla we-11 kuAgasti, 1840. Bakhululwa baza bathintelwa kwangoko nge-9/11. Kutshanje bakhululwa ngomhla we-7 kuOkthobha, 2023, yaye ukususela ngoko baye bathintelwa eGaza. UbuSilamsi buya kuphinda bukhululwe ukuze kuphawulwe ukumiswa komfanekiso werhamncwa. Umgca wembali yesiprofeto yobuSilamsi omelwe kwizahluko zesithoba kude kube seshumi elinanye encwadini yeSityhilelo, uchaza imbali yesiprofeto yobuSilamsi yeshwangusha lesithathu. “Imbali yesiprofeto yobuSilamsi yeshwangusha lesithathu” ikwamelwe yingelosi yesixhenxe kwanayingelosi yesithathu. Ingelosi yesithathu yafika ngomhla wama-22 kuOktobha, 1844, xa ingelosi yesixhenxe yaqalisa ukuvakala. Ingelosi yesithathu neshwangusha lesithathu zangena kwimbali yesiprofeto nge-9/11. Ukusuka nge-9/11 kude kube ngumthetho weCawa, imbali yesiprofeto yeshwangusha lokuqala nelesibini ibikade, yaye isaqhubeka, iphinda-phinda.

The “key” of the battle of Nineveh, draws two powers, Rome and Persia into direct and inseparable connection with Islam. Nineveh identifies more clearly than any other passage of Scripture the progressive demise of both western and eastern Rome.

“Isitshixo” sedabi laseNineve, sitsalela amagunya amabini, iRoma nePersi, kunxibelelwano oluthe ngqo nolungenakwahlulwa neSilamsi. INineve ichaza ngokucacileyo ngakumbi kunayo nayiphi na enye indima yesiBhalo ukutshabalala okuqhubekayo kweRoma yasentshona neyaseMpuma.

Herod is a symbol of the dragon; he was representing Rome. The dragon at the end of the world is the United Nations. At the Sunday law the sixth kingdom falls, the seventh begins, but they give their kingdom to the eighth kingdom at their own birthday party. The seventh kingdom has just been born, and it immediately agrees to give its kingdom to the whore of Babylon for one hour, as typified by Herod promising up to half his kingdom to Salome.

UHerode ungumfuziselo wenamba; wayemele iRoma. Inamba ekupheleni kwehlabathi yiZizwe eziManyeneyo. Ngexesha lomthetho weCawa, ubukumkani besithandathu buyawa, obwesixhenxe buqala, kodwa bunikela ubukumkani babo kubukumkani besibhozo emsithweni wabo wokuzalwa ngokwabo. Ubukumkani besixhenxe busandul’ ukuzalwa, yaye ngokukhawuleza buyavuma ukunikela ubukumkani babo kwihenyukazi laseBhabhiloni iyure enye, njengoko kufuziselwa nguHerode ethembisa uSalome ukuya kutsho kwisiqingatha sobukumkani bakhe.

Right where the United States falls, the United Nations is born and the threefold union is implemented. Herod is the dragon, and Herodias is the papacy, and the United States is Salome. Herod was in an unlawful marriage alliance, for he was married to his brother’s wife, and at the prophetic level he was in an incestuous relationship with Salome, for it is clear that he was lusting after her as she danced. The dragon has relations with both the mother and daughter. This is important to see when you determine that western and eastern Rome represents church craft and statecraft respectively. Rome, the fourth kingdom of Bible prophecy, placed the papacy on the throne prophetically, and in so doing it typified the United States who will once again place the papacy on the throne.

Kanye apho i-United States iwela khona, i-United Nations iyazalwa yaye umanyano oluphindwe kathathu luyamiselwa. UHerode yidrako, yaye uHerodiya bubupopu, yaye i-United States nguSalome. UHerode wayekumanyano lomtshato olungekho mthethweni, kuba wayetshate nomfazi womntakwabo, yaye kwinqanaba lesiprofeto wayekubudlelwaneni bokulalana kwezihlobo noSalome, kuba kucacile ukuba wayemnqwenela ngentliziyo njengoko wayedanisa. Idrako inobudlelwane nonina kwanentombi. Oku kubalulekile ukukubona xa uqinisekisa ukuba iRoma yasentshona neRoma yasempuma zimela ubuqhinga becawa nobuqhinga borhulumente ngokulandelelana. IRoma, ubukumkani besine besiprofeto seBhayibhile, yabeka ubupopu etroneni ngokwesiprofeto, yaye ngokwenza njalo yafanekisa i-United States eya kuphinda ibeke ubupopu etroneni.

The progressive demise of western Rome from 330 unto 476 represents the progressive demise of the United States from 1798 unto the Sunday law. The year “330” and the year “1798” are both prophetic waymarks called “the time appointed” or the “time of the end” in the book of Daniel. 330 marks the beginnings of western and eastern Rome. The ending of both is the humiliation of the Roman leader, just as Constantine humiliated the city of Rome at the beginning. 476 was the end of a prophetic period that marks how the prestigious political structure of Rome disintegrated under three steps. A period that began with the city being rejected in 330 was followed by the humiliation of their entire political structure—their glorious republic, which had been the primary bragging point for ancient Rome, was taken apart, and ultimately reached 476, when there would never be a ruler over Rome that was from an actual Roman bloodline. Two lines of Rome beginning in the year 330, and the passage where those two lines are set forth, also includes two prophetic lines of five months. The line of western Rome begins and ends with progressive humiliation. The line of eastern Rome begins and ends with progressive humiliation in 1449, as Constantine the last asked permission to reign.

Ukutshabalala okuqhubekayo kweRoma yasentshona ukusuka ku-330 ukuya ku-476 kumela ukutshabalala okuqhubekayo kwe-United States ukusuka ku-1798 ukuya kumthetho weCawa. Unyaka ka-“330” nomnyaka ka-“1798” bobabini bangamanqaku endlela esiprofeto abizwa ngokuba “lixesha elimisiweyo” okanye “lixesha lesiphelo” encwadini kaDaniyeli. U-330 uphawula ukuqala kweRoma yasentshona neyasempuma. Isiphelo sazo zombini kukuthotywa kwenkokeli yaseRoma, kanye njengokuba uConstantine wathoba isidima sesixeko saseRoma ekuqaleni. U-476 wawusisiphelo sexesha lesiprofeto esiphawula indlela ulwakhiwo lwezopolitiko oludumileyo lwaseRoma olwawaqhekeka ngayo phantsi kwamanyathelo amathathu. Ixesha elaqala ngokulahlwa kwesixeko ngo-330 lalandelwa kukuthotywa kolwakhiwo lwabo lonke lwezopolitiko—iriphabliki yabo ebalaseleyo, eyayiyeyona nto iphambili yokuqhayisa kweRoma yamandulo, yachithwa—aza ekugqibeleni lafikelela ku-476, xa kwakungasayi kuphinda kubekho mlawuli phezu kweRoma owayevela kumlibo wegazi wokwenene waseRoma. Imigca emibini yaseRoma eqala ngonyaka ka-330, nesiqendu apho le migca mibini ibekwe khona, sikwaquka nemigca emibini yesiprofeto yeenyanga ezintlanu. Umgca weRoma yasentshona uqala uze uphele ngokuthotywa okuqhubekayo. Umgca weRoma yasempuma uqala uze uphele ngokuthotywa okuqhubekayo ngo-1449, njengoko uConstantine wokugqibela wacela imvume yokulawula.

One of the five month periods leads to the end of Arabic Islam as the focus of prophecy and the beginning of Turkish Islam in 782. On that date Empress Irene is humiliated, in alignment with the humiliation of Constantine the last at the end of the second five-month prophecy. Two five-month prophecies within one narrative of fifteen verses. One portrays a history of the Islam of Arabia the other Islam of Turkey. Both conclude with the humiliation of eastern Rome. The conclusion of one of the prophecies was fulfilled by a woman being humiliated and the other by a man. Line upon line they identify a humiliation of the church and the state of eastern Rome. Both humiliations are brought about by Islam of the first woe. The humiliation of Constantine the last in 1449, begins a four-year period that ends in 1453, with the walls of Constantinople coming down. 1449 represents a humiliation and 1453 the walls come down and a kingdom ends.

Elinye lamaxesha eenyanga ezintlanu likhokelela esiphelweni seSilamsi sama-Arabhu njengengqwalasela yesiprofeto nasekuqaleni kweSilamsi samaTurkey ngo-782. Ngaloo mhla uKumkanikazi u-Irene uyathotywa, ngokuhambelana nokuthotywa kukaConstantine wokugqibela ekupheleni kwesiprofeto sesibini seenyanga ezintlanu. Iziprofeto ezibini zeenyanga ezintlanu ngaphakathi kwibali elinye leendinyana ezilishumi elinesihlanu. Esinye sibonakalisa imbali yeSilamsi yaseArabhiya, esinye yona eyeSilamsi yaseTurkey. Zombini ziphetha ngokuthotywa kweRoma yasempuma. Isiphelo sesinye seziprofeto sazalisekiswa ngokuthotywa komfazi, esinye ngokwendoda. Umgca phezu komgca zichonga ukuthotywa kwecawa norhulumente waseRoma yasempuma. Zombini ezi zithotywa ziziswa yiSilamsi yesishwangusha sokuqala. Ukuthotywa kukaConstantine wokugqibela ngo-1449 kuqalisa ixesha leminyaka emine eliphela ngo-1453, xa iindonga zaseConstantinople zisiwa phantsi. U-1449 umele ukuthotywa, yaye ngo-1453 iindonga ziyawa phantsi, nobukumkani buyaphela.

## Death of Mohammed

Ukufa kukaMohammed

One of the two five-month periods begins with the death of Mohammed, who is identified as the “king that was over them” in verse eleven.

Elinye kula maxesha mabini eenyanga ezintlanu liqala ngokufa kukaMohammed, ochongwe njenge “kumkani owayephezu kwabo” kwivesi yeshumi elinanye.

> And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.

> Kwaye babenokumkani phezu kwabo, onguyingelosi yomngxuma ongenasiphelo, ogama lakhe ngolwimi lwesiHebhere linguAbhadon, kodwa ngolwimi lwesiGrike igama lakhe linguApoliyon.

The king over them was Mohammed, for he is identified in verse one, so he is not some other Islamic figure; he is Mohammed the king, and a king is a kingdom and Islam is the kingdom of Mohammed.

Ukumkani phezu kwabo wayenguMohammed, kuba uchongiwe kwindinyana yokuqala, ngoko akanguye omnye umntu wobuSilamsi; nguMohammed ukumkani, yaye ukumkani bubukumkani, yaye ubuSilamsi bubukumkani bukaMohammed.

> And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. Revelation 9:1–3.

> Yaza isithunywa sezulu sesihlanu sacudisa ixilongo, ndabona inkwenkwezi isiwa ezulwini isiya emhlabeni; yaza yona yanikwa isitshixo somhadi ongenasiphelo. Yawuvula umhadi ongenasiphelo; kwanyuka umsi uphuma emhadini, unjengomsi wesithando somlilo esikhulu; ilanga nomoya benziwa mnyama ngenxa yomsi womhadi. Kwaza kwaphuma emsini iinkumbi zeza phezu komhlaba; zaza zona zanikwa amandla, njengoko oonomadudwane bomhlaba benamandla. ISityhilelo 9:1–3.

The repetition of the first and second woes within the third woe parallels the repetition of the first and second angels within the third angel. Mohammed, the king was given the key to open the bottomless pit and 9/11 identifies when the third angel is empowered. Christ as the mighty angel then descended as the first strike of Balaam arrived in prophetic history. Then the bottomless pit opened and Islam became a subject of world history again. Christ then led His people back to the old paths of Jeremiah and the message of the third woe and third angel began to be sounded. In 2015, Trump announced his intent to run for president, thus stirring up the globalist dragon powers and the bottomless pit then released the atheism that ultimately killed Trump in the streets of Sodom and Egypt. At the Sunday law the beast that is the eighth that is of the seven will ascend out of the bottomless pit. The beginning of the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand and the ending identifies the rise of a bottomless pit power.

Ukuphindaphindwa kweshwangusha lokuqala nelesibini ngaphakathi kweshwangusha lesithathu kuhambelana nokuphindaphindwa kwengelosi yokuqala neyesibini ngaphakathi kwengelosi yesithathu. UMohammed, ukumkani, wanikwa isitshixo sokuvula umhadi ongenasiphelo, yaye u-9/11 uchaza ixesha apho ingelosi yesithathu inikwe amandla. UKristu njengengelosi enamandla emva koko wehla njengoko isibetho sokuqala sikaBhileham safika kwimbali yesiprofeto. Waza umhadi ongenasiphelo wavuleka, yaye ubuSilamsi baphinda baba ngumxholo wembali yehlabathi. UKristu ke wakhokela abantu baKhe wabuyisela ezindleleni zamandulo zikaYeremiya, yaye umyalezo weshwangusha lesithathu nowengelosi yesithathu waqalisa ukuvakaliswa. Ngo-2015, uTrump wavakalisa injongo yakhe yokungenela ugqatso lobongameli, ngaloo ndlela evusa amagunya edragoni eglobalisti, yaye umhadi ongenasiphelo waza wakhulula ubungakholelwa kuThixo obathi ekugqibeleni bambulala uTrump ezitratweni zaseSodom naseYiputa. Ngexesha lomthetho weCawa, irhamncwa elingelesibhozo, elivela kwasixhenxe, liya kunyuka liphuma emhadini ongenasiphelo. Ukuqala kwexesha lokutywinwa kwamakhulu alikhulu anamashumi amane anesine amawaka, kwanokuphela kwalo, kuchaza ukuvela kwamandla omhadi ongenasiphelo.

> The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. Revelation 17:8.

> Irhamncwa olibonileyo lalisakuba likho, yaye alisekho; yaye liya kunyuka liphuma enzonzobileni, lize liye entshabalalweni; nabo bahlala emhlabeni baya kumangaliswa, abo amagama abo angabhalwanga encwadini yobomi kwasekusekweni kwehlabathi, bakulibona irhamncwa elalisakuba likho, yaye alisekho, kanti likho. ISityhilelo 17:8.

Islam is the key that opened the bottomless pit on 9/11 and that opens the bottomless pit at the Sunday law. In the midst of the sealing time, the dragon-beast of globalism also came out of the bottomless pit.

UbuSilamsi sisitshixo esavula umhadi ongenasiphelo ngomhla ka-9/11, yaye sisona sivula umhadi ongenasiphelo ngexesha lomthetho weCawa. Phakathi kwexesha lokutywinwa, nerhamncwa-inamba lobuzwe behlabathi nalo laphuma emhadini ongenasiphelo.

> And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. Revelation 11:7.

> Xa baya kuba begqibile ubungqina babo, irhamncwa elinyuka liphuma enzonzobileni liya kulwa nabo, liboyise, lize libabulale. ISityhilelo 11:7.

The key that opens all three waymarks of a power from the bottomless pit was given to Mohammed, the king of the kingdom of Islam. The battle of Nineveh in 627 represented a battle between two powers that depleted the power of both combatants that allowed Islam to rapidly rise into power. The key was turned on 9/11 and Islam’s rise began, though it was restrained shortly thereafter. The battle of Nineveh was typified at 9/11, for Islam’s rise there began as the mighty angel descended to lighten the earth with His glory, and the star, which means messenger, also fell from heaven. The battle of Nineveh is also typified at the end, when the Sunday law arrives and the second period of the Dark Ages begins as the smoke of the Islamic religion blots out the sun.

Isitshixo esivula zonke ezo zikhumbuzo zintathu zendlela zamandla avela emhadini ongenasiphelo sanikwa uMohammed, ukumkani wobukumkani bamaSilamsi. Idabi laseNineve ngowe-627 lamela idabi phakathi kwamandla amabini awaphelisa amandla omabini amaqela alwayo, nto leyo eyavumela ubuSilamsi ukuba bukhawuleze buphakame bube ngamandla. Isitshixo sajikwa ngomhla ka-9/11, kwaza kwaqalisa ukuphakama kobuSilamsi, nangona emva nje kwethutyana bathintelwa. Idabi laseNineve labonakaliswa ngokomfuziselo ngomhla ka-9/11, kuba apho ukuphakama kobuSilamsi kwaqala njengoko ingelosi enamandla yehla ukuze ikhanyise ihlabathi ngobuqaqawuli bayo, yaye nenkwenkwezi, ethetha umthunywa, nayo yawa ivela ezulwini. Idabi laseNineve likwabonakaliswa ngokomfuziselo ekugqibeleni, xa kufika umthetho weCawa kuze kuqalise ixesha lesibini leMinyaka yoBumnyama njengoko umsi wenkolo yamaSilamsi usithelisa ilanga.

## Exeter

Exeter

The Sunday law is typified when the message of the midnight cry arrives to the Exeter camp meeting. Then the final movements of the setting up of the image of the beast begins. The formation, or the setting up of the image began at 9/11, but at the ending of the period, the period of the proclamation of the midnight cry is also a fractal of the entire period of the image’s formation that began at 9/11. The beginning represents the ending. The first woe typifies the third woe, just as the first angel typifies the third angel. The battle of Nineveh at the ending of the sealing time, identifies the battle of Nineveh at the beginning. The battle of Nineveh at the Sunday law, is the ending of the sealing time that began at 9/11, but it is also the ending of the period of the proclamation of the midnight cry. The battle of Nineveh is therefore typified at the beginning to the midnight cry proclamation, that identifies the final steps in the formation of the image of the beast in the United States, and at the Sunday law the beginning of the formation of the image of the beast in the world begins. Nineveh is the key that aligns the various lines that find their perfect fulfillment in the hidden history of verse forty.

Umthetho weCawa uchazwa ngomfuziselo xa isigidimi sokukhala kwasezinzulwini zobusuku sifika kwintlanganiso yenkampu yase-Exeter. Emva koko kuqala iintshukumo zokugqibela zokumiswa komfanekiselo werhamncwa. Ukwakhiwa, okanye ukumiswa komfanekiselo, kwaqala ngo-9/11, kodwa ekupheleni kwelo xesha, ixesha lokubhengezwa kokukhala kwasezinzulwini zobusuku nalo liyi-fractal yalo lonke ixesha lokwakheka komfanekiselo elaqala ngo-9/11. Isiqalo simela isiphelo. Ishwangusha lokuqala lichaza ngomfuziselo ishwangusha lesithathu, kanye njengokuba ingelosi yokuqala ichaza ngomfuziselo ingelosi yesithathu. Imfazwe yaseNineve ekupheleni kwexesha lokutywinwa, ichonga imfazwe yaseNineve ekuqaleni. Imfazwe yaseNineve ngexesha loMthetho weCawa, sisiphelo sexesha lokutywinwa elaqala ngo-9/11, kodwa ikwangisiphelo sexesha lokubhengezwa kokukhala kwasezinzulwini zobusuku. Ngoko ke imfazwe yaseNineve ichazwa ngomfuziselo ekuqaleni ukuya ekubhengezweni kokukhala kwasezinzulwini zobusuku, nto leyo echonga amanyathelo okugqibela ekwakhiweni komfanekiselo werhamncwa eUnited States, yaye ngexesha loMthetho weCawa kuqala ukuqala kokwakhiwa komfanekiselo werhamncwa ehlabathini. INineve sisitshixo esilungelelanisa imigca eyahlukeneyo efumana ukuzaliseka kwayo okugqibeleleyo kwimbali efihlakeleyo yevesi yamashumi amane.
