Moses, the Israelites and their golden calf Apostasy circa1446 BCEHathor: Apis bull depicted in this Egyptian statuette (right) is likely to be the pattern usedfor the golden calf the Israelites made at Mount Sinai (Exo. 32), since they wereundoubtedly quite familiar with it as a result of their long captivity in Egypt. In front of thesun disk and horns, which look virtually identical to some Catholic monstrances, there isthe serpent poised to strike. In Scripture the serpent is symbolic of Satan. (Gen 3, Rev.12:9)The Prophet Moses confronted the Pharaoh of the time who had enslaved the Israelites(descendents of the Prophet Jacob, son of Isaac, son of Abraham). However, after theIsraelites escaped their captivity, they were again swayed by the Babylonian Pharisees andreverted to worshipping idols and the golden calf after the Pharisees collected all the Israelites’ gold. This event is knownas the Apostasy of Israel and the Cherubim. “Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Thou shalt not make unto theeany graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in thewater under the earth.” “Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold.” (Ex.20:2, 3, and 23).Judaism Corrupted into Babylonian Talmudism circa 586 BCETrue-Torah Judaism was originally based on Moses' vision of God as a universal moral force. TheSadducees upheld this view but the Pharisees overthrew them in a civil war in 79 BC. Theremnants of the Sadducees, "Torah Jews" still cling to Moses and the Old Testament but they area minority (5%). Phariseeism is based on the Babylonian Talmud, which consists of theinterpretations of "sages" during the Babylonian exile 586 BC to 1040 AC. Generally speaking, theBabylonian Talmudists contradict the spirit of Moses and take precedence over the Torah. Theyhave been using the name of Judaism as a shield against their banking/money monopoly sinceancient times. And as you will see later, the majority of Jews today are not Israelites, i.e. 90% arefrom Southern Russia/Northern Turkey and known as Ashkenazi/Khazar whose elite symbolicallyconverted to Babylonian Talmudism in the 8 th Century AC. More on this later.Greece 2,500 Years AgoFive hundred years later, the city-states of Greece were issuing metallic coins, the silver obol. After Sparta captured theAthenian silver mines around 400 B.C., Athens was faced with a grave shortage of coins. Over the next couple of decades,Athens issued bronze coins with a thin plating of silver. The shortage was made even worse as citizens hoarded the oldcoins and spent the new. It was the World’s first experience of what has become known as Gresham’s Law: Bad moneydrives out good money. Among the earliest and most popular of the Persian coins was a series known as archers becauseon the obverse they depicted the emperor armed with spear, bow and arrows. The mainland route from Asia to Greece laythrough Thrace and Macedon, kingdoms of such minor importance that they were simply bought off by the Persianarchers. Hence the boast of the Persian emperor "I will conquer Greece with my archers" was something of a pun -intentional or otherwise. The Persian boast was not fulfilled and part of the reason for this is that around 490 BC aparticularly rich seam of silver was struck in the Laurion mines some 25 miles south of Athens and some of the proceedsfrom this were saved by the Athenians, after powerful persuasion from Themistocles, and used to build the fleet whichdestroyed the Persians under Xerxes at the battle of Salamis in 480 BC. Thus Greek civilization was saved from beingstrangled on the eve of its greatest triumphs. Later the Macedonians opened up a number of new mines and beganminting coins on a large scale. Some of these commemorated the triumphs of their king, Philip, in the Olympics (anexample of how coins were used in the ancient World as instruments of propaganda). The quantity of coins minted byPhilip was far in excess of the normal requirements of the Greeks and Macedonians. Therefore, when Alexander the Greatinherited the throne he had a large financial reserve to pay for the initial stages of his campaign against the Persians. Bythe time Alexander's army was fully engaged in Asia the cost was about 20 talents or half a ton of silver a day! This showshow important his father's preparations were to the success of his campaign. Later on Alexander captured immensequantities of Persian gold and silver, much of which was then turned into coins by the mints he also captured, and so hiswar became self-financing.Ancient Greece and Rome 700 B.C.The Romans made a point of keeping the commonly used money strictly worthless intrinsically – coins of bronze – amixture of copper, tin, with a little lead. This was introduced by Rome’s second king, suggestively called Numa (718-672BC). In this way they were insulated from the influence of the Middle Eastern powers who coined gold and silver as theirmoney.... Gold and silver could be traded in Rome as merchandise, but the ability of the eastern temples or merchants tocontrol and disrupt Rome’s money was greatly reduced by the Numa innovation. The fate of Greece was partly determinedby the orientation of its money. Greece faced east; Rome faced west. It was only during the Punic Wars that the powerfuldefence thrown up by its bronze currency against foreign monetary intervention was sapped. J.W. Frazer’s Golden Boughtells how in 204 BC, after enduring 16 years of Hannibal’s rampage and 70 to 100 thousand dead, the war-weary anddesperate Romans were seduced by a prophecy concocted from the Sibylline books: ‘The foreign invader would be drivenfrom Italy if the Oriental Goddess, the Phrygian "Mother of the Gods" were brought to Rome.
