Moses Birth To Exodus

 Hi Everyone,

As we finish up the Book Of Jubilees it was interesting to see that God told Moses to go to Pharoah but it doesn’t say it was in a burning bush. Moses’s conversation with the Pharaoh was different. The Book of Jubilees listed the plagues but didn’t give the conversation of each individual plague. Then, with the Passover and the death of the first born, It says “and all their idols the Lord took vengeance and burned them with fire.” The rest was the same as the Hebrew/ Protestant Bible including the Laws regarding the Passover and Sabbath. 

To finish the book I thought it would be fun to end with the events of Moses in AI pictures. 4 from Google Nana Banana 2 from my ArtSpaceAI program. Google wouldn’t create the violent picture of Moses killing the Egyptian. It was also interesting that it wouldn’t create Moses as a baby in the basket but when I took the word “baby” out of my prompt, it put the baby in the basket. I’m also aware that The Red Sea was a lot further that the city they fled from, but it is AI.

I have thoughts about what the next blog will be but it seems like when I say it, it tends to change, so maybe we'll all be surprised. Until then,

Timeline Recap in Book Of Jubilees

 Hi Everyone, I’m hoping everyone is having a great week. I started some fun stuff on Substack this week. Please come over and join me there. It’s also called Nite Reflections. It’s a little daily thing that shows how Jesus used the book of Psalms His teachings. I went through the 23rd Psalm then saw how He spoke Psalm 22 when He was on the cross, so now I’m going to try to find where Jesus actually spoke scripture even if it wasn’t in His formal teaching like the Sermon On The Mount ect. I’ll start with Psalm 22 then start at the beginning of Psalms.

Since it’s been a few posts since we were in the Book Of Jubilees I want to recap the timelines we’ve talked about. I also put this blog on Substack as well.

From Adam to the birth of Noah was 707 years. Adam died in the year 930.

Noah started building the ark in the year 1307 and finished it in 1308. That made him 600 years when he started building the ark. The flood was over in the year 1309

God came down with the angels and confused the speech of the people and they were spread out over the earth from the Tower Of Babel in the year 1688.

In the year 1876, over 500 years after the flood Abram was born. In the year 1965 since Sarai was barren she told Abram to go sleep with Hagar and that’s when Ishmael was born. In the year 1979 God told Abram how much He approved of his faithfulness and changed his name to Abraham and Sarai’s name to Sarah, told them that Sarah would give birth to Isaac and established the ordinance of circumcision. There aren’t any dates for what follows so I’m guessing they are still in the 1979 timeframe. Sodom and Gomorrah and Zeboim and all of region of the Jordan were destroyed. Lot was saved and there isn’t any mention of Lot’s wife in this book.

Isaac was born, still no date, but in 1982 Isaac was weaned Hagar and Ishmael were made to leave. In 2003 God told Abraham to take Isaac to the high country and sacrifice him. The same story as the Hebrew Bible, Abraham takes a knife to sacrifice Isaac but an angel stops him and there is a ram hooked on a bush provided for the sacrifice.

In 2115 Jacob has the dream about the ladder where the angels go up and down on the ladder and God blessed Jacob and promises him the land where he is sleeping. The next date given is 2143. During that 28 years Jacob and Rebecca travel to Bethel, Jacob’s name is changed to Israel. There is no mention of wrestling with an angel.

During the next 200 years Jacob and Esau wage war on each other, Joseph is sent to Egypt but now mention of a Coat Of Many Colors, and in the year 2330 Moses was born. It’s interesting that since the angels are narrating this to Moses it says “ In the seventh week, in the seventh year, in the forty-seventh jubilee thy father went forth (2303 A.M.) from the land of Canaan, and thou wast born in the fourth week in the sixth year thereof in the (2330 A.M.) forty-eighth jubilee.

As we read the book of Genesis we often read it not thinking about the length of time all these events take place, but it was actually over 1000 years from the creation of the heavens, earth, water, plants, animals, angels, spirits of all creation and man and woman, to the flood, then another 1000 years from the flood to the birth of Moses.

Next time we’ll look at Moses as a baby, The Passover and The Exodus. In the mean time come over to substack, search for nite reflections and join me in my mini bible search. Until then,

Just Talk To Him

 Happy Lucky Friday the 13th. I say that because, although it isn’t today, my birthday is on the 13th and I used to love it when it was on Friday so I could dispel any superstitious comments.

This week I’ve listened to a few videos from different people with a different topic yet each had a section in the message that said the same thing in a different way, and it led me to think I need to focus on that here.

Someone I know and are Facebook friends with, Almost every Sunday he posts all the things that can’t save you, religion, pastors, baptism, a church or being good. While I’m not saying this isn’t true, he goes on to say, only Jesus saves. And I’m not necessarily that is totally false either, it does strike a nerve with me, because we grew up in the same church and I know the context that he means it. Like a lot of evangelical Christian churches if you walk down to the front of the church, tell the minister that you want to ask Jesus into your heart he’ll ask you if you believe Jesus died on the cross for your sins, God raised Him from the dead, and do you want to ask for forgiveness for your sins? You’ll say yes an viola you get baptized and you get to go to heaven when you die. Even at 5 years old, you know, all the parents are applauding, and that’s all nice and sweet, but does the child really get it? I can say that like that because that was me. Nowhere, at least in that church did they teach that repenting of your sins means a turning away from the life of those sins. That now praying the prayer that you ask for forgiveness means the Holy Spirit has come and given you a change of heart. That you have been transformed as in Romans 12:1,2. Do not conform to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. No classes to teach you what being a follower of Jesus means.

Before I get too far off, let me clarify why I am bugged by these posts. Yes Jesus took on the sins of the world, died and rose again that we are able to repent for those sins. Before this an individual who had sinned had to bring an offering to the priest at the entrance to the Tabernacle, the priest then performed a ritual of sprinkling the blood of the offering and burned the fat. Leviticus 4 and 5. For cleansing like leprosy the person had to also present to the priest, Leviticus 13 and 14. In Numbers 5 it talks about when a man or woman sins they need to confess the sin and it states that it is just generally understood that it needs to be to a priest. In the Tabernacle, which was basically a portable church in a big tent, there was a section there was a section behind a curtain designated as the holy place and symbolized a separation between a perfect God and imperfect humanity. The Ark Of The Covenant was in the Holy Of Holies. This wasn’t used for the peoples daily confessions, it was used once a year. The High Priest would go in through a cloud of incense so he his eyes wouldn’t directly see the glory of God.

What I don’t feel is taught near enough is, when Jesus cried out and gave up His spirit the Veil was torn from top to bottom, Matthew 27:51. That means we don’t have to consult a priest to enter the Holy Of Holies. We can consult God any day any time of day. The way I think about it, yes Jesus did this for us. You commonly hear it said that Jesus took on the sins of the world. I can’t find that exact phrase but, 1 Peter 2:24 does say Jesus carried our sins in His body to the cross. I’ve also heard it said that during the time that Jesus was dead, He went to hell and defeated Satan. I can’t find that anywhere. Ephesians 4:9 says “He descended into the lower earthly regions.” In addition to being thankful that Jesus died on the cross and was raised again after 3 days all for us!! We can now go straight onto Holy Ground like Moses, into the Holy Of Holies because the veil has been ripped and talk to the Lord Jehovah ourselves. Jesus teaches us to repent. Without writing them all out here, the verses are

Matthew 4:17, Mark 1:15, Luke 13:3.

Along with the verse in Romans about being transformed, other verses that teaches a change of heart are Matthew 22:37. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. Part of the great commission.

Joel 2:13 says Return to the Lord.

Ezekiel 36:26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you.

And maybe the most popular—Psalm 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast (right) spirit within me.

In another video by Francis Chan, who I’ve mentioned before, he references Proverbs 26:11. As a dog returns to it’s vomit, so a fool repeats his folly. Jesus did this for because of His love for us, and yes He did this even though we didn’t didn’t ask. But the phrase “Freedom isn’t Free” comes to mind. Our freedom in Christ does require some responsibility from us. A relationship with God is necessary. Conversations with God is critical. We’re used to praying For Things. Because of the way I was raised I was never taught that relationship. I raised my kids in a church that taught how to have that relationship but I taught and never really practiced. I am finally trying to develop that. I encouraged everyone to read The Bible, The Ethiopian Bible, The Nag Hammadi. Everywhere your interests lead you. God will meet you where you are.

Melchizedek-Mystery or Mystery Solved?

Melchizedek

Holy Bible Mystery, Enoch Book Of Secrets Explanation

Mar 09, 2026

---

Hi everyone, welcome to what was going to be another Sunday dinner message, but my research went a little long yesterday. So we’ll call this an eye opening Monday, instead of the Monday Blues. For a Sunday post I was going to explain what I found about what the Protestant Holy Bible calls a mystery, the Ethiopian collection, and also found it was in the next chapter I needed to discuss in the Book Of Jubilees. That is the man named Melchizedek. All searches of my searches said it was in the book 2 Enoch. What I eventually found out was, it is in Enoch Book Of Secrets. If you tap the link the story of Melchizedek is all the way at the end, in the Appendix. The whole book is good though. You can download it there if you’re interested. It talks more about creation and Enoch having visions and conversations with the angels.

For those who are just getting to know me, I’m the kind of person who wants to know what’s in the missing time periods. Where was Jesus between the age of 12 at the temple and age 30 getting baptized by John the Baptist? I that search I found Paramahansa Yogananda who says documents were found in India that says Jesus went there on the silk road to learn from the wise men who came to visit Him in the Christmas story. Take it or leave it. All the Bible says was He grew in wisdom and stature. So for me it’s as good as any other explanation. We don’t know what we don’t know.

I use the terms Protestant Bible because it contains 66 books. The Ethiopian Bible contains 88 books and they have other manuscripts. So I’m not using Protestant Bible as a derogatory term, it’s just to distinguish what I’m referring to. With that being said, on to Melchizedek.

In the Protestant Bible and The Ethiopian Bible Melchizedek is mentioned a couple of times. In Genesis 14: 18-20 Abram had gone to rescue his nephew Lot that had been captured, Melchizedek King of Salem brought out bread and wine and blessed Abram. Then Abram gave Melchizedek one tenth of everything he had. Melchizedek was a king AND a priest of God Most High, which was practically unheard of. It was usually one or the other. Back then you either had political status or religious status. Psalm 110:4 is a prophesy about the Messiah. It says, though art a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek. Then in Hebrews 5:6 it refers back to Psalms saying “So also Christ did not glorify Himself so as to become a High Priest but He (God) said to Him Thou art My Son then Paul says that God quotes the same passage from Psalm. Then again in verse 10 quoting Psalms again. Hebrews 6:20 actually uses the name of Jesus being the forerunner for us, having become a high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.

My question is, why isn’t more said about Melchizedek since the Bible is saying Jesus is a “High Priest according to the Order Of Melchizedek?” Here’s what I found

In the book Enoch Book Of Secrets, God told Methusala just before he died to take Nir, Noah’s younger brother, to the alter and consecrate him so he can be the leader of the people. They did. They had the animal sacrifices. After Nir became the leader he did not sleep with his wife. During this time there was peace on the earth. It was shortly after that that “the devil began to reign for a third time.” The 1st was the serpent to Adam and Eve, The 2nd was Adam and Eve’s sin, and now. Nir’s wife’s name was Sopanima. Sopanima was barren. But during the time of her old age she conceived. Nir was ashamed and she stayed hidden. When it was time for her to give birth, Nir went to her. They had such an argument that he told her “depart from me lest I do thee an injury, and sin before the face of the Lord.” When Nir said this Sopanima died. Nir grieved so much thinking he had caused her to die. He hurriedly shut the doors and went to his brother Noah, told him what happened and they went back to get ready to bury her and hide Nir’s shame.

When they returned from digging her grave Sopanima, they walked in the door to find the “infant” she had been carrying on the bed. I used quotes for the word infant because it says “the infant was sitting by the dead Sopanima and wiping it’s clothes. Noah and Nir had great fear because the child was complete in it’s body like one of a three year old and spake with it’s lips and blessed the Lord” They hurried and washed it, clothed it in priestly raiment and gave it blessed bread and it ate. Realizing that God was renewing the consecration they took black robes off of Sopamina and clothed her in bright robes and built a church for her. They named the child Melchizedek.

By this time because the world had become increasingly evil, Noah and Nir knew God was going to destroy the earth, and wondered what was going to become of Melchizedek. Nir was asking the Lord and the Lord said to him, “I will send my chief captain Michael and he shall take the child and place him in the paradise of Eden in the garden where Adam was….and the child shall not perish with those who perish in this generation, and I will appoint him that he may be the chief of the priests who were before.” After 40 days Michael came and got Melchizedek and told Nir that Melchizedek will stay in Eden. Then after 12 generations and a thousand and seventy years a just man will be born and the Lord will tell his to go to the mountain of the ark of Noah and he will find another Melchizedek who has lived there 7 years and he shall lead the people and be the first priest of Salem.

This was confusing at first since it said another Melchizedek. After reading it a few times I figured it must mean, after so many years, the Melchizedek that was the child must have grown and after the flood the world populated and he trained other priests. it says he was concealing himself because the world was worshipping idols again. And from THAT Melchizedek, the new one, there will be 12 priests.

In my mind this still isn’t clear, if there was 2 Melchizedeks or if the baby was the one that Abram talked to, but in either case if it was the baby or a descendant of him this tells us what the history could have been.

Like I say, take it or leave it but this is one theory, and the only historic option we have right now.

Until next time, here’s a Google Gemini Nano Banana picture of Melchizedek after he was born.
