TruthVid's 100 Proofs that the Israelites were White, Part 23

In our last presentation, which was Proof 44 in this list of 100 proofs, we discussed particular passages in the Gospel of John where certain terms are mistranslated or misunderstood, which also adversely affect the interpretation of the Scriptures throughout the New Testament. While we did not discuss every possible error of interpretation in John, we sought to address the passages which would change one’s view of Scripture, and potentially one’s entire worldview, once they are translated properly and understood correctly within the context of the entire Scripture. With these interpretations which we uphold to be correct, all of the seeming conflicts and inconsistencies within Scripture vanish, God is no longer the hypocrite which the denominational churches make Him out to be, and we can know that God is true. So now, continuing with Proof 44, we will endeavor to do this same thing in the so-called Synoptic Gospels, which are Matthew, Mark and Luke.

Specific NT Verse misteachings, mistranslations or corruptions in Matthew

While there are not a lot of mistranslations or misunderstandings in the Synoptic Gospels, there are some critical ones, and we have already spoken about some obvious misunderstandings. For example, where in Matthew 3:7 we see John the Baptist calling certain of the Pharisees and Sadducees a “generation of vipers”, the word translated as generation is γέννημα, which literally means offspring. So in essence, John is calling the parents of these men vipers, and not the men themselves. The same phrase appears where Christ used it in the same manner of His adversaries in Matthew chapters 12 and 23. The use of the phrase proves that there is an actual race of men referred to as vipers in Judaea at the time of Christ, or both He and John are mere slanderers, the parents of these men not being present to defend themselves against the accusation.

TruthVid's 100 Proofs that the Israelites were White, Part 22

In our last presentation, which was Proof 43 in this list of 100 proofs, we discussed particular passages in the Old Testament where certain terms are mistranslated or misunderstood, which also adversely affect the interpretation of the Scriptures throughout the entire Bible. Doing that, we did not discuss every possible error of interpretation in the Old Testament, but rather we only sought to address the passages which would change one’s view of Scripture, and potentially one’s entire worldview, once they are understood correctly within the context of the entire Scripture. With these interpretations which we uphold to be correct, all of the seeming conflicts and inconsistencies within Scripture vanish, God is no longer the hypocrite which the denominational churches make Him out to be, and we can know that God is true. So now, here beginning with Proof 44, we will endeavor to do this same thing in the New Testament.

44) Specific NT Verse misteachings, mistranslations or corruptions

The first verses we should probably discuss are John 1:11-13, although we will surely return to Matthew, Mark and Luke a little later on. The denominational Christians twist the meaning of these verses in John to prove at once the chosen people myth of the Jews, and then the idea that anyone who professes to believe somehow becomes a child of God, an idea which itself conflicts with the chosen people myth of the Jews. The truth is, that these verses are not necessarily saying what they have been translated to say. What we are going to say about these verses here is mostly based on a 2006 essay I had written titled Translating John 1:11-13, which were actually based on the translation notes I made when I translated John. So I elaborated on them once again in Part 3 of my commentary of the Gospel of John, which was titled The Sons of God. Here I will attempt to condense those explanations, if it is possible.

TruthVid's 100 Proofs that the Israelites were White, Part 20

This is our fifth discussion of point 42 in TruthVid’s 100 Proofs that the Israelites were White. Once again, we have already explained that this review of the meanings of certain words does not explicitly prove the race of the Israelites. But understanding the true meanings of many Biblical terms does help to prove that word meanings were obfuscated by the churches so as to distort the many other evidences that the message of Christ and His apostles and prophets is solely intended for White Europeans.

42 continued) Major word mistranslations or misunderstandings that occur repeatedly throughout the Bible.

Satan and the Devil

The word satan is a common Hebrew word which was used in the New Testament in a particular manner, and therefore in order to properly understand what it means we must examine its use and meaning in Old Testament Hebrew. In many passages, it is clear that a satan is only an opponent or adversary, and in many different contexts the word was applied to men. For example, David was called a satan or adversary to the Philistines in 1 Samuel 29:4, and Hadad the Edomite was called a satan, or adversary, to Solomon in 1 Kings 11:14. Rezon the son of Eliadah was also a satan or adversary to Israel in the days of Solomon, in 1 Kings 11:25. From the perspective of men, even an angel of Yahweh was an adversary, or satan to Balaam in Numbers 22:22. Then in the same context later in the chapter, at 22:32, the same word, satan, is a verb translated as withstand.

But not all opponents or adversaries are also capital ‘s’ Satans, even while there are capital ‘s’ satans. Grammatically, one difference between Satan, with a capital ‘s’, denoting a particular Satan for which reason we prefer to translate it as Satan in that manner, and an adversary who may be just about anyone at one point in time or another, is in what is called a Substantive. A Substantive is a word or group of words which are not typically nouns, but are employed as nouns in a given context. In Hebrew or Greek Substantives are quite common. Combined with a definite article, the noun is used to represent a particular entity, and not just any one of an entity which fits the description in the definition of the noun. In language, when the definite article accompanies a noun or Substantive, it indicates that the subject referred to by the noun has already been mentioned, or is common knowledge, or is about to be defined.

Once again, we have already explained that this review of the meanings of certain words does not explicitly prove the race of the Israelites.

42 continued) Major word mistranslations or misunderstandings that occur repeatedly throughout the Bible.

In our last presentation of this series, we discussed the various terms for man, which are adam and enosh, and we found that adam is a racial designation, describing a single race of man, but that enosh is the general term for man in the sense of a mortal hominid. Then we examined the words for bastard and found that bastard is also a racial designation, but describes someone who is not of an authentic race. Now we shall discuss another misunderstood term which is also a racial designation similar to bastard, but from a different perspective, and that is the term arab.

TruthVid's 100 Proofs that the Israelites were White, Part 18

This is our third discussion of point 42 in TruthVid’s 100 Proofs that the Israelites were White. As we have already said, this review of the meanings of certain words does not explicitly prove the race of the Israelites, but it does show that word meanings were obfuscated so as to distort the many other evidences that the message of Christ and His apostles and prophets is solely intended for White Europeans.

42 continued) Major word mistranslations or misunderstandings that occur repeatedly throughout the Bible.

Adam, enosh and mamzers: Man, man and bastards.

First, we must address a false claim in Christian Identity circles that the word enosh is a precise reference to so-called men of other, non-Adamic races. That is not true. The fact is that examining the listings in Strong’s Concordance for the English word men, it is very quickly realized that men of the race of Adam were very often referred to with the word enosh. Rather, the Hebrew word enosh, Strong’s # 582, is related to and derived from the word anash, Strong’s # 605, which means frail or feeble, and therefore enosh refers to man as a mortal being.

But the word adam as a noun refers only to one particular race of men, the race created by Yahweh God as it is described in Genesis chapters 1, 2 and 5 where we read “this is the book of the generations of Adam”. That Hebrew word translated as generations is toledah, Strong’s # 8435, and it means descent or descendants. Not everyone in the Bible is a descendant of Adam, as we see later on in Scripture that there are Nephilim, Rephaim, Zuzim, Kenizzites, Kadmonites, Girgashites and others who cannot be traced back to Adam, who were not ever counted among the descendants of Adam, and all of whom were rejected by Yahweh God as being among the accursed races of Canaan. The Kenites were not of Adam, although the meaning of Genesis chapter 3 is argued by denominational Christians. But as for those other groups not being of Adam, they have no grounds upon which to argue, as it is clear that they are not of Adam.

TruthVid's 100 Proofs that the Israelites were White, Part 16

Here we begin our discussion of point 42 of TruthVid’s 100 Proofs, which concerns the mistranslations or misinterpretations of words found in Scripture, whether they are purposeful or not. William Finck’s prepared notes are found below.

42) Major word mistranslations or misunderstandings that occur repeatedly throughout the Bible.

These mistranslations are systemic in that they are based on a universalist interpretation of Scripture.

Nations or Gentiles?

The Hebrew word goy means nation. The Brown-Driver-Briggs Hebrew lexicon defines it as “1) nation, people 1a) nation, people 1a1) usually of non-Hebrew people 1a2) of descendants of Abraham 1a3) of Israel 1b) of swarm of locusts, other animals (fig.) n pr m 1c) Goyim? = ‘nations’”

So gentile is not even part of their definition for goy, but it is translated in that manner 30 times in the King James Old Testament, half of them in Isaiah.

The Greek word ἔθνος means nation. It is translated 96 times as gentile in the King James Version. On another 5 occasions the word Ἕλλην, which means Greek, is translated as gentile, which is completely dishonest. According to Liddell & Scott, ἔθνος in earliest Greek writing meant a “number of people living together, company, body of men… band of comrades… host of men… of particular tribes… of animals… swarms, flocks…” Then later, “after Homer, nation, people… later, foreign, barbarous nations, opposite to Ἕλληνες… at Athens, athletic clubs of non-Athenians in LXX, non-Jews, Ps. 2.1, al., cf. Act.Ap.7.45; Gentiles… used of Gentile Christians, Ep. Rom.15.27.” Other, more obscure uses of the word are given after these.

While Liddell & Scott always give the definitions of words as they were interpreted in the King James Version, that does not mean that the apostles understood them in that manner. That does not mean that when the apostles wrote ἔθνος, they meant non-Jew or gentile. While ἔθνος appears approximately 150 times in the New Testament, it is often translated as nation or heathen, which is also a quite subjective rendering.

TruthVid's 100 Proofs that the Israelites were White, Part 15

Here we discuss points # 40 and 41 of TruthVid’s 100 Proofs, which concerns the Revelation and the Gospels. William Finck’s prepared notes are found below.

The very fact that Scripture was first written in Hebrew with letters that are the same as those which are commonly called Phoenician, and then later it was written in Greek, proves that the Israelites were White. The Hebrew language is related to Aramaic, and the Syrians were certainly White, as Greek historians attest, and of course Greek is considered to be a strictly European, or so-called
Indo-European language. However there are many Hebrew and Greek cognates, as there are with Hebrew and other Indo-Europen languages. Then there are predecessors to Classical Greek found in the Mediterranean, represented in scripts such as Linear B or the Cypriot syllabary, which also show that Greeks and Hebrews are more remotely related.

Linear B was a script used to write what is called Mycenaean Greek, which predates Classical Greek and the Greek alphabet derived from Phoenician by at least 6 or 7 centuries. The oldest examples are esteemed to date to about 1450 BC, which is right around the same time as the Exodus. Another script, called Linear A, which was evidently used to write a Minoan language, has never been deciphered and is esteemed to be the ancestor of both Linear B and the Cypriot syllabary. Examples of Linear B were discovered in palace archives at Knossos and Cydonia on Crete, and Pylos, Thebes and Mycenae in Greece. But Linear B seems to no longer have been used after the fall of the Mycenaean civilization in the 12th century BC. After that, there is no evidence of Greek writing until perhaps the 8th century BC.

For further reaing and evidence, see our article Earliest Greek Writing is Phoenician.

TruthVid's 100 Proofs that the Israelites were White, Part 14

Here we discuss points # 38 and 39 of TruthVid’s 100 Proofs, which concerns Ezekiel's lamentations of Tyre and the minor prophets. William Finck’s prepared notes are found below.

(38) Ezekiel’s Lamentations over Tyre

In all of the ancient Greek accounts, beginning with Herodotus, the Dardans, and therefore the Trojans, the Leleges, Carians and Milesians, the Cilicians, and the Phoenicians were all related, and many of these groups were described as having originated in Crete. In the Greek myths from as early as the Iliad, Europa was the daughter of Phoenix, the son of Agenor king of Tyre, and the sister of Cadmus the Phoenician, who founded the Greek city of Thebes. Europa was the mother of Sarpedon, the legendary founder of Miletus, a notable city of the Carians, and Sarpedon was the father of Minos, the famous king of the Cretans from which we get the name Minoans. Herodotus attested that all of the colonies of the Phoenicians had come from Tyre. But in the Bible, while Tyre was within the inheritance of Asher the Septuagint version indicates that the walled cities of the Tyrians would be inherited by the tribe of Naphtali. Later, where Hiram king of Tyre, who was subject to David and Solomon, had sent to Solomon a craftsman to help with the design of the temple, Flavius Josephus wrote in Book 8 of his Antiquities: “76 Now Solomon sent for a craftsman out of Tyre, whose name was Hiram; he was by birth of the tribe of Naphtali, on the mother's side (for she was of that tribe;) but his father was Ur, of the family of the Israelites.”

The modern Jews have always disclaimed the Tyrians as Israelites. They must do that, because otherwise their entire narrative concerning their own identity disintegrates. In the Book of Judges there is the song of Deborah after the victory of Israel over the Canaanites in the north, and she asked why Dan remained in ships and Asher abode in his breaches, which are his port cities, rather than come to the fight. Four centuries later, the census of David counted the Israelites in Tyre and Sidon just as in every other city in Israel. The relationship of David and Hiram, the king of Tyre, shows that Hiram was subservient to David and complied with him happily. Solomon gave Hiram cities in Galilee as a gift, so that also shows that Hiram was an Israelite, but here in Ezekiel there will be no doubt that the kings of Tyre were of Israel.

TruthVid's 100 Proofs that the Israelites were White, Part 13

Here we discuss # 37 of TruthVid’s 100 Proofs, which concerns the prophet Isaiah. William Finck’s prepared notes are found below.

The Christian faith was originally called catholic because it was received whole, meaning that both Old and New Testament Scriptures were recognized as the Word of God. The Roman Church later perverted the meaning of the term catholic and used it to describe the application, rather than the reception of the faith. The true faith in Christ must include a belief in both the Old and New Testaments.

The writings of the prophets were preserved because as men realized that their words were true, because short-term prophecies were fulfilled, their value was recognized and the fact that their words did indeed represent the Word of God was laid bare. If the short-term prophecies were fulfilled, then the long-term prophecies would also be fulfilled. Many of those prophecies were of Christ Himself, so when He came, He announced that He came to fulfill the words of the prophets.

But many of those prophecies also speak of reconciliation with Israel, and what Yahweh God would do with Israel in the future. If the apostles did not go to the twelve tribes Israel, then God is an utter failure. So the apostles went to Mesopotamia and Europe while professing that they were going to the twelve tribes of Israel. The Roman Catholic tales of apostles in non-White or marginally White places are all unfounded fables used to support early universalist inclusivity.

(32) Josephus's books - What we can learn from Josephus's multiple books

Flavius Josephus wrote four books which can with all certainty be attributed to him. According to one of those books, which is a short autobiography, he was from a priestly family of the tribe of Levi, and in his younger years he spent about three years as an Essene. Ultimately, however, Josephus became a Pharisee, but that alone does not make him an evil man. The parties of the Pharisees, Sadducees and Essenes were political as much as they were religious, and if a man wanted to have any influence or any role in the political life of Judaea at that time, then being an Essene was a dead end, and the only other reasonable choice for a pious man was to join the Pharisees. However while the Essenes were excluded from the political scene in Judaea, Josephus did attest that of each of the sects in Judaea, they were the only ones who were all “Jews [or Judahites] by birth”, as he write in Wars Book 2. There he wrote describing the Judaean sects and said “119… the third sect, which pretends to a severer discipline, are called Essenes. These last are Jews [Judaeans or Judahites] by birth, and seem to have a greater affection for one another than the other sects have.”

Having informed us that of the religious sects in Judaea only the Essenes were Judaeans by birth, it is evident that Josephus was also informing us that the other sects were accepting converts of the other nations, namely the Idumaeans. So Josephus, being a Pharisee, it is evident that his religious learning and interpretations of ancient history and Scripture must have been in conformance with the teachings of his party. It is clear in the New Testament records that these parties were distinguished by various religious beliefs. For that reason, I do not give much credibility to Josephus’ interpretations of Genesis or other early accounts found in Scripture, as they would naturally reflect the leaven of the Pharisees which Christ Himself had condemned. However in spite of that, I believe Josephus himself was an honest man and earnestly sought to tell the truth about his nation, in spite of his biases, and in spite of things concerning which he was either naive or ignorant.
