THE HISTORY OF THE CRIVELLI
Arizona Wilder conducted human sacrifice rituals for the Illuminati elite
for decades.
These included the British Royal Family, George Bush, Henry Kissinger,
and a stream of world famous names revealed in "The Biggest Secret" and the video, "Revelations of a Mother Goddess", available
through this website (http://www.davidicke.com) ~ see
book and studio catalogs).
Since she escaped from her mind controlled confinement, she has dedicated herself to exposing what is happening.
I received this letter from her dated May 25th 1999 in which she details
the key points in the Illuminati ritual programme running up to the Millennium.
I should emphasize a few things for
those who have not read "The Biggest Secret."
The Illuminati, the clique which control the direction of the world, are
genetic hybrids, the result of interbreeding between a reptilian extraterrestrial race and humanity many thousands of years
ago.
The centre of power is not even in this dimension -- it is in the lower
fourth dimension, the lower astral as many people call it, the traditional home for the "demons" of folklore
and myth.
These fourth dimensional reptilian entities work through these hybrid
bloodlines because they have a vibrational compatibility with each other.
This is why the European royal and aristocratic families have interbred
so obsessively, as do the so called Eastern Establishment families of the United States which produce the leaders of America.
Every presidential election since and including George Washington in 1789
has been won by the candidate with the most European royal genes.

Of the 42 presidents to Bill Clinton, 33 have been genetically related

It is the same wherever you look in the positions of power.. they are
the same tribe!
As well as an obsession with interbreeding with each other to preserve their genetic structure, the
Illuminati are also obsessed with symbolism and ritual.
Interestingly, conventional science has documented that the reptilian
part of the human brain (the R complex as they call it) is the source of the following behavior traits: An obsession with
ritual, cold blooded behavior, territorialism "this belongs to me",
THE HISTORY OF THE CRIVELLI
ALL YOU DO IS FEED - HAVE SEX AND KILL
and an obsession with top down hierarchical structures.
This sums up the Illuminati mentality perfectly and it goes that if you
have more of that R complex, or that it is activated more than normal, you will manifest these traits far more profoundly.
But
their ritual is not just for ceremonial purposes or gratuitous horror.
THE HISTORY OF THE CRIVELLI
THE HISTORY OF THE CRIVELLI
The rituals are designed to rewire the energy fields and grids of the
planet and therefore to fundamentally affect human consciousness.
The rituals these bloodlines performed in the ancient world are the same
as they do now.
See The Biggest Secret for the background.
They have a detailed annual calendar of events on which they perform their
sacrifice rituals in line with key lunar, solar, and planetary cycles to harness that energy for their sick agenda to take
complete control of Planet Earth in the very near future.
With that background, here is the full text of the communication
from Arizona Wilder.
I will add my comments in dark type where more background may be needed
for those new to these subjects.
David Icke David - This information needs to go out to everyone as fast as possible.
The Illuminati are conducting
a ritual to be held at the Great Pyramid at Giza in Egypt, on August 11, 12, and 13th,
1999. (Specifically the Mothers of Darkness-the top conductors of rituals, will officiate).
THE HISTORY OF THE CRIVELLI
This ritual is "The Rite to Open the Passage" (the Eye of Horus).
THE HISTORY OF THE CRIVELLI
This will open the passage for lower fourth dimensional energy to be directed
into the leylines of the Earth.
This will (is designed to) also close
the 3rd eye (consciousness) of all on this planet that oppose the Illuminati.
It will further shut down (is designed to) the other people who
are not actively aware or opposing the Illuminati but feel uneasy about what is going on and cannot figure out why.
The
solar eclipse which is to take place on August 11 (over the key Earth power centre of Cornwall, England) will also
have a "Grand Square" which makes it extremely powerful.
This eclipse is the beginning of a six month period in which there will
be much activity of significance that pinnacles in
The Rite of Establishment
of the
Age of Horus
(Osiris reborn)
at the Millennium.
SOPHIA OF WISDOM III THE SEEDS OF LIFE
3RD TRIMESTER
This symbolism relates to the ancient Egyptian legends of Osiris (the father), Horus
(the son), and Isis (the virgin mother), which later became the basis for the Jesus stories also.
The New World Order, the takeover of the planet via the establishment
of a world government, world army (NATO), world central bank and currency, and a micro-chipped population, is known by the
Illuminati as
"The Age of Horus".
The symbolism of the murder of a pregnant Diana, Princess of Wales,
with the Egyptian Dodi Fayed, relates to the arrival of "The Age of Horus". (See "The Biggest Secret").
This "Age of Horus" ritual will be held on December 31st from 12am to 3am at the Great Pyramid, at which time
the top of the pyramid will be capped with gold and crystal. (George Bush has long been on the guest list of the Millennium
"Celebrations" at Giza).
Etched in the crystal will be the Eye of Horus on all four sides.
(This relates to the All Seeing Eye symbol on the dollar bill and the
reverse of the Great Seal of the United States).
They will finalize this period of six months on January 31st/February
1st and start "preparing the ground for the sowing of their seeds.
Preceding the August 11 through 13 ritual, which
by the way ends with the day of Hecate (one of their key deities),the bringer of chaos and death, is the July 28th
lunar eclipse.
This eclipse is also extremely unusual and powerful in that it also involves
a Grand Square and the House of Aquarius goes direct - its effect is at full strength.
The Moon on this date is a New Moon - a time to plan and cast spells for
the plan.
During the solar eclipse, the next day and on the Day of Hecate (August 13th), there
will be blood sacrifices and also literal sodomization of the intended sacrifices beforehand.
This will signify opening the
Eye of Horus,
1ST SON
opening the passage for the
lower fourth dimensional energy
and the closing, the shutting down of the human 3rd eye - consciousness
on the planet.
They will remove the heart and consume it, signifying the taking away
the vibrational chakra of love.
They will also remove the liver (strength), the eyes (sight), and brain
(knowledge, thought, action).
They will consume the blood (life force for them).
Their ritual acts all encompass and empower them for what they wish to
spiritually do to us.
What they do is to be given strength which is brought into actual physical
being by the solar eclipse, the lunar eclipse, and the grand squares of their ruling planets with those particular energies
accompanying the grand squares.
The effect on the Earth if they succeed will be terrible.
Very
much a part of this is the planned marriage of Sophie Rhys-Jones and Prince Edward of the House of Windsor at Windsor Castle
on Saturday (Saturn's day) June 19th, 1999.
ROYAL WEDDING JUN 19 1999
Look at the date and year.
The 19th is the number of the Sun. 1 is the beginning (alpha),
9 is the end (omega).
The name Sophia = wisdom,
THE OMEGA = SOPHIA OF WISDOM
THE FINAL JUDGE
which is Baphomet by the (code known as) the Atbash
Cipher.
On June 19th, 1999,Saturn is direct in Taurus at 13 degrees, releasing
malevolent powers.
This marriage has been arranged for this year to empower the rituals
from August 11th to 13th and the ones starting at 12am on December 31st.
The Illuminati foresaw through astrological
charting that Saturn turns at 17 degrees Taurus to square Uranus on the 17th, 18th, and 19th of July 1999.

This results in an intense and upsetting period
because people who are seeing the changes occurring now are going to be challenging the plans the Illuminati are ready to
play.
The marriage is a ritual to attempt to thwart those who plan against them.
It does this by performing a ritual (marriage) that is heavily publicized
and therefore constitutes a kind of "open" ritual.
This is an attempt to communicate directly with the subconscious of the
millions who read or hear about it, by means of a
"twilight code"
that does not require conscious understanding, but subliminal human processing.
This ritual/marriage is part of a sequence of events that the Illuminati
plan to use to imprint their design on the subconscious of the public group mind.
This does not require people's conscious understanding.
By using the energies manifested during this time and putting their intent
behind this ritual/marriage, the House of Windsor plans to clear out elements of their agenda which are not working and ensure
the Illuminati rituals of August 11th-13th 1999 and December 31st/January 1st are successful.
The timing of the marriage on June 19th is associated with the Oak Tree, a powerful occultic symbol in Druidism that
is also often used by the House of Windsor.
The Roman god, Janus, is associated with the Oak. Janus, the two-faced
Roman god of change, and also the "beginning and the end", "the opening and the closing of the door".
Since the wedding is close to the summer solstice, it is associated with
St Johns' Eve,
THE HISTORY OF THE CRIVELLI
or Oannes (the Babylonian Nimrod) and is still celebrated as the
"Festival of Aire" in Ireland.
Aire, a goddess, is related to Air Soph (endless one)
on the Tree of Life.
Air Soph = Sophia (Sophie)= wisdom = Baphomet in the Atbash cipher.
THE HISTORY OF THE CRIVELLI
THIS IS A BODY FORM OF THE FATHER AND HE IS NOT WELCOMED EITHER..
AND
THIS IS WHERE THE MAGICAL SEMEN COMES FROM..
WHEN THE FATHER GETS BACK INTO HIS BODY FORM FROM BEING MY EX-HUSBANDS HIS BODY REMEMBERS WHAT HAPPENED..
The
white horse, sacred to the Phoenicians in Britain (see The Biggest Secret), is also associated with the oak.
On the Tarot, a naked child sits on a white horse.
The child signifies "the fool", the "initiate".
The nakedness signifies there is no longer anything to hide. Edward Windsor
is the initiate.
By this marriage he is initiated into wisdom/Baphomet, into the dark things
that light does not pierce.
The circle is closed in on the House of Windsor.
The scene is set, Alpha to Omega.
The serpent has swallowed its tail. It has become the endless one.
The marriage of Princess Diana to Charles was timed and located in the same way as part of Windsor-Illuminati ritual.
St. Paul's Cathedral, where the marriage took place, is built on an ancient site of Goddess Diana worship at Ludgate Hill
in the heart of the City of London-the Illuminati's epicentre at operational level.
Diana also died in Paris on an ancient site of ritual sacrifice to
the Goddess Diana, now known as the Pont d'Alma tunnel (see The Biggest Secret for the detailed story).
It is
also worth noting how much Sophie, Prince Edward's bride, is a Diana look-alike and only in April 1999, one of the most famous
television presenters in Britain, Jill Dando, a lady I knew at the BBC, was shot dead near her home in London by, according
to reports, a "professional hitman'. Jill Dando is another Sophie look-alike with blond hair and blue eyes, and Jill Dando
was a friend of Sophie.
The Illuminati
obsession with ritual leaves me in no doubt that Dando's death was connected to the sequence detailed here by Arizona Wilder.
The
Sun also signifies "The Head".
Jill Dando was shot in the head and killed on April 26th, 1999, This relates
to the ritual wedding of her friend, Sophie Rhys-Jones and Edward.
This date was also the first day of the "Grand Climax", a week long string
of rituals preceeding and including Walpurgisnacht, April 30th, leading to Beltane, May 1st. Again Jill Dando shot in the
head, the Oak, Janus, the Sun, the date of the wedding, are all connected.
The Illuminati began to prepare the way
for so much on May 1st, 1999, Beltane.
The energy they put forth in readiness for the August eclipse increases
with the May 30th Full Moon; the June 13th New Moon; the June 21st Summer Solstice; June 28th Full Moon; July 13th new Moon;
July 28th New Moon/Eclipse wit grand junction; August 1st Lughnasad ritual; August 5th height of Mercury stationary in Cancer.
All this is to open the way for the dates of the solar eclipse/Day of
Hecate,
THE HISTORY OF THE CRIVELLI
August 11, 12 and 13th.
In the Illuminati/Satanic method of
"mirror or reverse" symbolism, the Day of Hecate, August 13th, is mirrored to August 31st for her day of sacrifice. Diana,
Princess of Wales, died on that ancient site of Goddess Diana worship on August 31st - the day of sacrifice to Hecate.
WHAT WE NEED TO DO IS HAVE OUR OWN CONVERGENCE
During this eclipse we need to focus on bringing down higher vibrational
energies and canceling out their fourth dimensional energy.
Those of the Illuminati who are not at the Great Pyramid will be
positioned at precise longitudes and latitudes along the ley lines to perform rituals of the same kind at specified sites
in which phallic/womb symbols have been built.
19 degrees latitude is where important sites will be, also 28 degrees
latitude.
Arizona Wilder So let's do it!
If all this makes sense to you, can you organize all like thinkers you know to arrange their own events
on these dates?
Particularly the solar eclipse to the Day of Hecate.
To bring in higher dimensional energy to defuse this Illuminati
agenda!
All you have to do is go to a place you feel drawn to at that time
and open your heart and mind to the energy we call love.
Particularly love for the lower fourth dimensional entities because
this will dilute their energy even more.
We don't need mumbo jumbo, just people with open hearts and minds
focussed on the intent to be vehicles to ground love in this three-dimensional world.
If you have entered this website
to read just about the names, dates, people, conspiracy and are not aware of the esoteric level of the manipulation, you may
choose to ignore this or dismiss it as New Age nonsense.
This, I would suggest, is precisely what the manipulators want you
to do because they then have a clear playing field.
And ask yourself.
What harm could it do to connect with the energy of love for three
days or even a few minutes at the time of the solar eclipse.
One thing's for sure, you won't have the chance to go back and do
it afterwards when you realise that all this, bizarre as it may seem to you now, is actually the way the world is controlled
and the human race maintained in its mental and emotional prison.

MARY MAGDALENE & JESUS
THIS IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF ILLUMINATI RITAL MARRIAGE
CAROLYN BESSETTE STOLE THE NAME MARY MAGADALENE OR MARIAMNE I OF PETRA = HOLY GRAIL OR CAMELOT
HERE IS THE PROOF THEY GET MARRIED EVERY LIFETIME
CAROLYN & JOHN......
AND CAROLYN WAS AFTER THE TITLE OF QUEEN OF CAMELOT
AND SHE WAS MAMI OF THE ALTRA HASIS FLOODS
AND THERE WERE ALWAYS AT LEAST 5 OTHER SPIRITS PIGGY BACKING IN ONE BODY
AND THEY ALL WANTED SOMETHING FOR NOTHING QUICK AND FAST
WHO WAS MARY MAGDALENE?
At the Crucifixion and Resurrection, there is a mysterious woman who
is present, named Mary Magdalene. Some say she was the wife of Jesus.
Others say she was a prostitute freed by Jesus. Still others say she
was an esoteric figure of a secret royal line in France.
Just who was this mysterious figure?
The Biblical evidence identifies a woman who anoints Jesus with an
alabaster box at the house of a Pharisee named Simon as "a woman of the
city who was a sinner."[Lk 7:37] Jesus then forgives her all her sins,
which sins He says, "are many." In the very next section, we are told
that Mary Magdalene, "out of whom He had cast seven demons," had begun
following Jesus and the Apostles [Lk 8:2]. Jesus says that because the
woman had been forgiven much, she loved Him much [Lk 7:47].
Many have assumed this woman is Mary Magdalene and that she was some
sort of prostitute because "woman of the city"
could have that meaning
in some situations. The text does not explicitly identify the woman as
Mary Magdalene or as a prostitute, however. Luke does say Mary had had
seven demons cast out of her and responded by following Jesus. It must
have been clear to Luke as he wrote that the strong similarity between
these two women and their juxtaposition in immediate succession would
lead many to identify the two as the same person. The gospels often go
to some pains to avoid such confusion, for example, when John speaks of
"Judas" at the Last Supper and adds, "not the Iscariot." So by failing
to clarify that Mary Magdalene is not the same woman, Luke in effect
is
allowing us to make that identification.
This, if correct, would lead us to a second conclusion very rapidly,
for the anointing of Jesus is REQUIRED by an express command of Jesus
to be recorded whenever the gospel is preached [Mt 26:13]. Therefore,
because the ONLY anointing Luke records is the one by that "woman of
the city," we must conclude that this is the same anointing as we see
recorded in the other gospels. Note what the other accounts add:
The anointing is in the house of Simon THE LEPER of BETHANY and the
box contained "VERY PRECIOUS" ointment [Mt 26:6-13]. This anointing of
Jesus is followed WITHOUT A BREAK by Judas betraying Jesus, implying a
direct link between the anointing and Judas' decision [Mt 26:14-15].
Mark adds the fact that this ointment in Simon's house
was of a very
precious substance called "SPIKENARD"--but someone complains, "Why was
this WASTE of the ointment made? For it might have been SOLD FOR MORE
THAN 300 PENCE."[Mk 14:3-5] That equals a YEAR'S WAGES in those days,
or roughly $20,000 in modern terms. Obviously, this was a black-market
ointment, something ILLEGAL, such as oil used to anoint someone KING.
John, at last, completes the story: The woman who anoints Jesus is
none other than Mary of Bethany, the SISTER OF MARTHA AND LAZARUS. So
the woman was named MARY after all. And because she and her sister are
supposed to serve guests in this house, a house we can now identify as
the house of Simon the Pharisee, a "leper" (which some say was a coded
way of identifying a person who advocated independence from Rome, and
who was ostracized like a leper on the Sanhedrin), we must see Simon as
the FATHER of Mary, Martha and Lazarus.
Now it becomes clear why these three siblings are living in the same
house; it is the family estate. We know that Lazarus is wealthy when
we are told of the huge crowds that gather when Jesus raises Lazarus
from the dead. Bethany was on the eastern slope of the Mount of Olives
--prime real estate. Yet Lazarus' family owns a large enough estate to
have this huge throng there ("the WHOLE WORLD has gone after Him"), and
a private tomb on the property of a PHARISEE who would want to maintain
ritual purity by keeeping his house as far from a tomb as possible.
Simon is a wealthy Pharisee living on choice property near Jerusalem
with a house big enough to sleep several adult men and women. It is
his daughter who anoints Jesus with contraband royal ointment in his
presence at a dinner in honor of his son Lazarus.
This explains why a Pharisee would allow a "woman of the city who
was a sinner" into his house and let her POUR HER OINTMENT ALL OVER
JESUS AND ONTO HIS FLOOR. Pharisees would NEVER permit a STRANGER to
enter their home who might be "unclean" and pour oil of UNKNOWN origin
onto their floor. (She wipes the oil on Jesus' feet also.) For the
ritually pure Pharisees this was anathema. But if this is his very
own daughter, a woman he knew, and if he knew exactly where that oil
had come from, then the mystery vanishes.
THE ANOINTING OIL
So where did that oil come from?
The term "SPIKE-nard" is very misleading. The Greek actually calls
it "GENUINE nard"--which the translators change to "SPIKE-nard" on the
assumption that some copyist made a mistake. But the correct reading
of "GENUINE" has awesome implications. It signifies that this was the
GENUINE anointing oil. In other words, THE GENUINE royal anointing oil
of the priests and kings. The oil of KING DAVID. Of the MESSIAH, the
ANOINTED One.
No wonder Jesus insisted they include this story in every telling of
the gospel. This was His official anointing as Priest and King.
[The ancient origin of this alabaster box of oil is detailed in an
extensive audio/printed report called "THE SECRETS OF PETRA." It is
far too much to cover on the web. Copies can be ordered via our NEWS
& UPDATES page.]
But could a fallen woman anoint Jesus Priest and King?
MARY "THE MAGDALENE" AND HER FATHER NICODEMUS
Mary and Martha are grown women living in their father's house on a
large estate. This is most unusual. Ordinarily the only way a woman
would return to her father's house was by being widowed or divorced or
if her husband had gone on a long journey and left her otherwise alone.
The Talmud has a curious story about a man named Nicodemus. It says
he was one of the richest men in Jewish history. This Nicodemus had two
daughters named Mary and Martha: Martha was a widow who returned to her
father Nicodemus' house, while Mary had married an extremely rich man
and had brought him a huge dowry. The Talmud does not say why Mary was
living at home, but we may assume her husband travelled a great deal.
The Talmud places this story 30 years AFTER the Biblical Nicodemus--
a generation later. Tradition says that Nicodemus and his whole family
were ARRESTED because of their Christianity. All were exiled to Gaul
by 37 AD, except Nicodemus, who is said to have seen them sail off from
Caesarea. Yet the Talmud seems to place the family a generation later.
But according to Psalm 109, people convicted of capital crimes--and
the book of Acts says that professing Christianity had become a capital
crime--had their NAMES BLOTTED OUT "unto the second generation." So it
was FORBIDDEN for the rabbis to publicly discuss or write about someone
who had been blotted out, as Nicodemus and his family had been. By the
shifting of the "time" of the Talmudic stories 30 years later, rabbis
could write about blotted-out events during the "forbidden" period. We
have many Talmudic stories about Jesus, Lazarus and other blotted-out
New Testament figures, which also exhibit a similar time-shift.
It appears, therefore, that the Talmud has coyly "resurrected" some
forbidden history of the family of Nicodemus and Mary Magdalene, which
shows she was married to one of the richest men in her world. Who could
that be?
MARY AND JOSEPH, THE "OTHER HOLY FAMILY"...
The term "Nicodemus" means "innocent of blood" and is hardly a name
one receives at birth. So "Simon" might well be his given name. When
Jesus is condemned by the Sanhedrin, the vote has to be UNANIMOUS. Yet
we know that two members, Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus do not feel
Jesus is guilty. This can only mean that Caiaphas the High Priest held
their proxies and cast their votes for them.
The Talmud and other sources reveal that Joseph and Nicodemus were
wealthy men who travelled far from Jerusalem, in the metals and grain
trades respectively. Because they were not always available to vote,
they had to give their proxies to the High Priest.
Nicodemus was a "RULER" of the people on the Sanhedrin, a man of
great wealth (he held a monopoly on grain in Jerusalem). His friend
Joseph of Arimathea was in similar circumstances. Undoubtedly, both
men often travelled together for months at a time.
But why did they bury Jesus together?
The Jewish law of burial left a man UNCLEAN for handling a dead body
--which would have prevented these men from eating the Passover, if we
accept John's gospel [Jn 18:28]. But the NEXT OF KIN were REQUIRED to
bury their family members. That means both men were related to Jesus.
Catholic tradition makes Joseph the UNCLE of Jesus' mother, Mary, but
they also say he was YOUNGER than Mary. The Church has evolved a view
of Mary as staying a virgin AFTER giving birth to Jesus, and this led it
to elevate Mary to a semi-divine status Rome feels is incompatible with
her having any siblings. The idea is that her mother Anna had no other
children but Mary. But the starting point of this odd logic is Rome's
belief in Mary remaining virgin AFTER giving birth to Jesus, an idea the
Bible goes to great lengths to refute:
The Bible declares, for example, that Mary lost her virginity at the
birth of Jesus [Lk 2:23; Is 66:9; Rev 12:4], had sex with her husband
[Mt 1:25], and was mother to many other children after Jesus [Mt 12:46-47;
13:55-57; 27:56,61; 28:1; Mk 6: 3-4; and many other similar passages]. To
maintain the myth of Mary keeping her virginity even after giving birth,
Rome decided in 1871 that Mary had herself had a miraculous birth without
original sin and without any siblings. This meant Joseph of Arimathea
had to be pushed back another generation BEFORE Mary, even though he was
younger than Mary and was said to outlive her by 15 or 20 years.
This confusion vanishes in light of the Biblical verses cited above,
which removes the need to falsify Mary's family structure. Joseph was her
younger brother, uncle to Jesus. When their father, Heli Joachim, died,
Joseph took over the family's seat on the Jewish Sanhedrin. If this were
not so, Jesus could not be David's heir. The "honored seat" Joseph held
on the Council was, of course, the seat of the House of David, the KING'S
SEAT. Jesus sat on it at age 12 [Lk 2:41-51]. Joseph of Arimathea had
to adopt Jesus by Jewish law if he believed Jesus to be legitimate, for
Joseph was the male elder of the family and a brother had to adopt his
sister's unheired sons.
Had Joseph been an uncle of Mary the line of inheritance would have
deviated away from Jesus: Mary would not have had it to pass down to
Jesus in the flesh. Rome's efforts to deify Mary deny Jesus the throne
of David by natural inheritance, contrary to Scripture [Lk 1:31-33].
So Joseph of Arimathea was obligated to adopt Jesus. The adoption
papers are quoted by Luke in chapter 3 of his gospel. Rome admits the
genealogy there is that of Mary's side of the family, but ignores the
fact that the "Joseph" who is adopting Jesus is her brother by using
the bizarre argument that her husband acquired his wife's genealogy by
adopting Jesus--even though the whole point of adoption was the reverse
situation: To give Jesus the adopting male's genealogy. Had this male
been Joseph the "Carpenter" of the line of Jeconiah, whose descendents
were cursed from sitting upon the throne, Jesus would have been cut out
of the royal inheritance like all other men of Jeconiah's line. Only
a BROTHER of Mary could adopt Jesus and keep Jesus in the royal line of
succession as the heir of David:
"When Jesus was about to be thirty years of age, He became by
custom [by adoption] the son of Joseph, the son of Heli..."
[Lk 3:23, literal rendering]
All this means that Joseph of Arimathea had to be married to a woman
of very wealthy and high status. Only such a woman would be suitable to
wed a man who held his position. Nicodemus married his daughter Mary to
such a man. Could Mary be Joseph's wife?
The gospels state that Jospeh of Arimathea [the city of Matthew: See
his genealogy] buried Jesus in his own UNUSED tomb in Jerusalem. Joseph
had acquired it RECENTLY, for no one in his family had died and ever been
buried in it; yet the average age of death in those days was under thirty,
with many babies born dead. This can only mean that Joseph had obtained
the site during his life and did not inherit it.
The common way such a tomb would come into a family was as part of a
DOWRY. But if Joseph married Mary of BETHANY of the Mount of Olives,
then the dowry tomb would have been on the Mount of Olives and the site
of the Crucifixion must have been near Bethany at the summit of the
Mount. This is in fact the case [See the link below to our discussion
of "THE CRUCIFIXION"].
Now we can see that Mary was a woman of great importance. To gain a
tomb on the summit of Olivet was one of the most sought-after desires
of every Jewish person, but hardly anyone could achieve it. Joseph was
given a piece of land when he married Mary that he would LITERALLY die
for. But if he were to divorce her, it would revert to Nicodemus.
THE FAMILY LINE OF MARY MAGDALENE
This man Nicodemus was not only a member of the Sanhedrin, but a rabbi
and Pharisee and a ruler of the people. All this makes him one of the
CHIEF SCRIBES. The house of Benjamin was given the right to keep the
written genealogies of the priests and kings to decide which persons were
entitled to inherit. The Torah says Benjamin will "DIVIDE the SPOILS"--
that is, the inheritiances of Israel.
Benjamin was allotted six seats on the Council. One of these seats
was occupied by the chief elder of the tribe, the RULER of it. John
calls Nicodemus a "RULER" and implies Nicodemus is the chief elder.
We know from 1 Chronicles 5 that the elders of Benjamin were expected
to live in Jerusalem, and that included Olivet. The grain monopoly he
held indicates that his family had PRE-EMINENCE. To have absolute and
total control over the food supply of Jerusalem is hardly the kind of
thing a lesser line of Benjamin would inherit. Nicodemus had to be of
the chief family--hence the HEAD of the tribe.
But there's a catch. In Benjamin, the WOMEN pass down the line of
inheritance. Not Lazarus, but Nicodemus' elder daughter Mary was the
heir of the line. Her son would sit on the Sanhedrin.
The term for the one who holds the authority is "PILLAR" (from the
idea that the family is a kind of building and a pillar is the most
prominent support of the edifice, hence the regal building block of a
family or institution).
In Hebrew, "pillar" is a "M'GD'L" or "magdal." So the name "Mary,
the Magadalene" means "Mary the Pillar (of her tribe)." She was the
chief heir of the tribe of Benjamin.
To compare how this title was used in the Bible, the term used to
describe "The High Priest" in Hebrew was "Ha-Kohen Ha-Gadol" or "The
Priest, The Pillar"--that is, he was the SUPREME Priest of the tribe,
the Chief elder of Levi. Mary is called "Ma-Gadol-aH-eN" or "Great
Pillar Female One"--that is, she was the "Great Supreme Woman" of her
tribe: Benjamin.
Now we see her conferring her tribal honor on Jesus, making Jesus
the heir of Benjamin by adoption through her husband Joseph. That had
the effect of giving Jesus the LEGAL RIGHT TO OFFICIALLY APPOINT what HE
called "SCRIBES of the Kingdom"--the writers of a NEW testament. But the
tribe of Benjamin could do more than keep written records that DESIGNATED
the Priest and King. It could ANOINT them.
When Mary brought out the "GENUINE Nard" and anointed Jesus, she was
declaring Jesus the OFFICIAL King. Jesus observed that she in effect had
anointed Him for BURIAL. Why? Because it was ILLEGAL and He now reeked
of contraband oil. The penalty was death under Rome's law.
But her anointing seems so informal, so loving and casual. Or is it?
The gospels say she stood behind Him and poured it all out upon His
head and wiped the residue on His feet with her hair. This act of hers
in STANDING BEHIND HIM AND POURING IT ON HIS HEAD is standard practice
for an OFFICIAL ROYAL ANOINTING. Apparently she did not intend to pour
it all out, and when she did, she tried to wipe it up with her hair.
But Jesus chooses to emphasize her love and His forgiveness of her
prior sins "which were many." What had Joseph of Arimathea's wife done
to be regarded as such a sinner?
John records the Sanhedrin bringing a woman to Jesus who was caught
"in the very act" of adultery. Jesus is asked to JUDGE her. Only her
husband, her father, and her eldest son had this right. The reason is
that each had a LEGAL STAKE IN THE DOWRY. If found guilty, a divorce
would cause the dowry to revert to her father's house. Jesus as Mary's
male heir, albeit by adoption, had a legal basis for judging her.
When Jesus sets her "free," He does so conditionally. "Where are they
who accuse you?"--meaning her father and husband. No doubt they were off
on one of their merchant trips, which is why Mary had gotten into trouble
out of loneliness. While Jesus had saved her life for the moment, she
was still under a kind of "house-arrest" pending the return of Joseph and
Nicodemus. A woman left alone for months or even years at a time could
easily fall into adultery. And could be forgiven for her weakness.
However, NO CHILD SHE BORE AFTER THIS COULD INHERIT...and certainly
not the throne of David! Orthodox rabbis still hold to this rule.
Even if Mary were the wife of Jesus as some claim, it would be of no
inheritance value to her descendents. All her subsequent offspring in
the aftermath of adultery would be legally bastards with NO CLAIM ON
ANY INHERITANCE OR ROYAL THRONE.
Therefore, all those pretenders who are now claiming to be the heirs
of David through Jesus and Mary Magdalene are claiming an inheritance
that cannot exist. Most of them cite an "heir" produced long after
Mary's sexual escapades (if she had any; being caught public embrace of
one not your spouse could in some cases be "in the act" of adultery).
WAS JESUS MARRIED AT ALL?
Aside from the obvious fact that much of the New Testament is about
Jesus as the Bridegroom of the Church, the Bride of Christ, how could
Jesus have married? No father would have married his daughter to this
man whom the general public believed was a result of fornication with an
UNKNOWN FATHER. (The Talmud later suggested the father of Jesus might be
a gentile Roman soldier, ie an uncircumcised rapist.) Even Mary's about-
to-be husband Joseph was ready to divorce her over this issue [Mt 1:19].
Even if Joseph had tried to marry Jesus off under his own name, it was
a problem, for his line carried the CURSE of Jeconiah. In fact, it is a
well-documented tradition that his own first-born, James, never married.
This hardly boded well for Jesus. James would not have made a decision
to be celebate at 13 because of some Christian piety, for James did not
yet believe in Jesus as the Christ. James simply could not be married
because of the family curse, which he carried as first-born of Joseph.
Even if James had not inherited that curse, all Mary's children were also
tainted by her first supposed "illigitimate" birth.
(Joseph's marriage to Mary was by special circumstance as we discuss
in our article about him [coming soon]. Briefly, Joseph innocently put
Mary's father in a position where he had to let her marry Joseph.)
So Jesus could not be married until He was adopted by a man without
the curse, namely Joseph of Arimathea, His wealthy and powerful uncle.
One could argue that Jesus waited until He was thirty to be adopted and
get married. But that is exactly what the New Testament says: Jesus was
going around the land "wooing" a Bride, the Church.
The marriage feast at Cana is sometimes said to be His
marriage to
Mary Magdalene...or somebody. The "bridegroom" is not named;
so the now
critics want to assert he is Jesus because His family is invited to the
wedding. But John says Jesus was "INVITED" to the wedding. However, a
groom is never invited to his own wedding! He and the bride don't get
invitations to their wedding; they or their parents are the ones who do
the inviting. [Jn 2:2]
If Jesus is the bridegroom, why is He unconcerned that the guests to
His own wedding have no wine? Why does His mother have to urge Him to
act against His inclination? Why does Mary have to tell the staff to
obey the bridegroom? This makes no sense at all. On the other hand, if
Jesus is merely a GUEST, it makes perfect sense. It could be one of His
younger sisters getting married, which would explain why the staff obeys
Mary, but must be instructed to obey Jesus.
WAS JESUS A RABBI WHO HAD TO BE MARRIED?
This absurd argument flies in the face of the express statement of
John's gospel that Jesus had "NEVER studied" under the rabbis or the
scribes in Jerusalem or apparently ANYWHERE:
"And the Jews marveled, saying, 'How does this man have learning,
having NEVER studied?'" [Jn 7:15]
Jesus TAUGHT, but He had no formal training, and was therefore NOT
an OFFICIAL rabbi, who had to be married under the rules. Jesus was a
"small r" rabbi, an unofficial teacher, as John states. Being unable
to marry, Jesus could not qualify to study under the official rules.
All throughjout the gospels we are told how the scribes and Pharisees,
the OFFICIAL teachers of the people, were jealous of Jesus, spied on
His teaching, tried to discredit Him, etc. If Jesus had credentials
from them, they would have boasted of Him. But He did not. Jesus was
a COMPETITOR, and outsider, someone they had NOT taught, a teacher who
had his learning directly from God, Nicodemus concluded.
Which brings us to how Nicodemus could find Jesus so
easily at night
in that house at Bethany, coming to Him "secretly" by night.
He simply walked down the hall and knocked on His door. After all,
it was his own house, and Jesus was his grandson by adoption.
And that explains why Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea were the two
men who were required by law to bury Jesus: His adoptive father and
maternal uncle and His adoptive grandfather, respectively. It also
explains why Mary Magdalene, his adoptive mother, was at the tomb with
His natural mother Mary and her sister Salome.
As for the business about Mary calling Jesus "rabboni"--it was her
proper title for the heir of the family and the person who had saved
her life and was now sort of her "parole officer" and responsible for
her behavior in the future. He had become a legal guardian over her,
because her continued life was His responsibility, having let her go
after her capital crime, under the Law of Moses, of adultery.
We see Jesus' authority over Mary at Lazarus' funeral. As the true
elder of her family, Mary was sitting in official mourning in the house
to receive visitors, as Jewish custom required (and still does). She
could only leave the house under very special circumstances. It would
be like calling the bride away from the midst of her wedding to give
her a message. But because Jesus was acting as a kind of warden over
her--she was a convicted felon on parole in the eyes of the law--Mary
had to obey Jesus who held custody over her, in effect. It had not a
thing to do with her being His wife, as many mistakenly assume. Why
would she have been under some strange obligation to remain inside her
BROTHER'S house as a wifely duty? There is no such custom. She was
the chief official mourner, a role that fell to the eldest woman. It
had nothing to do with marriage or Jesus.
SUMMARY
All the "evidence" about Jesus and Mary Magdalene being
married to
each other collapses when examined closely. The ulterior motives of a
few royal lines in Europe in asserting an inheritance back to Jesus
from Mary Magdalene have produced a slew of specious arguments which
are flatly contradicted by the very Bible passages they cite and by the
known practices and customs of the Jewish people at the time.
Jesus has a Bride to which He has pledged to come back.
It is the
Bride of Christ, the true spiritual body of believers. The whole idea
is that the New Covenant is a spiritual MARRIAGE covenant with this
Bride, not a sexual union. While she may well be among the saints He
will raise up and "wed" at His coming, Mary is but one of the many in
the Church. If she were His carnal wife, His future "wedding feast"
would be confused and distorted, Indeed, it would have been ADULTERY,
in a technical legal sense, for Jesus to have been seeking to create a
marriage covenant with the Church while married to Mary. He would have
been unfaithful to her. The whole idea would defile the entire basis
of the New Covenant relationship: That Jesus is an UNMARRIED King who
is "betrothed" to the Church [Ephesians 5:21-33].
If Mary Magdalene is Jesus' adoptive mother, a thousand
mysteries are
resolved. But if she is His wife, a thousand conflicts are created.
