Because of the remarkable hardness of sapphires, 9 on the Mohs scale (and of aluminium oxide in general), sapphires are used in some non-ornamental applications, including infrared optical components, such as in scientific instruments; high-durability windows; wristwatch crystals and movement bearings; and very thin electronic wafers, which are used as the insulating substrates of very special-purpose solid-state electronics (most of which are integrated circuits).

Sapphire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thin sapphire wafers also are used as an insulating substrate in high-power, high-frequency CMOS integrated circuits. This type of IC is called a silicon on sapphire or "SOS" chip. These are especially useful for high-power radio-frequency (RF) applications such as those found in cellular telephones, police car and fire truck radios, and satellite communication systems... And God communicated with man.... using a sapphire cube??

Your picture is a good choice as this pic illustrates..

This is the crystal structure of sapphire.

Lasers
Affecting the behavior of light in pulsed lasers, sapphires are also used in nonlinear optics. The most common application is the frequency doubling that is executed by using a crystal at a special angle. These lasers are called in the scientific community, Ti-sapphire lasers.

I'm sure that you have all read Scientists baffled by Venus' drastic decline: Planet rotating six and a half minutes slower. This is compared to data collected some 16 years ago. Some studies suggest that the same might be true of other solar orbital objects.

The magnetic poles of Earth have recently started moving at a fantastically accelerated pace and may be getting ready to flip. Should that happen, it could cause enough seismic activity to alter the rotation of the Earth significantly. Remember reading How the Japan Earthquake Shortened Days on Earth? We could conceivably return to a 360 day orbit, scientifically speaking. I have no idea of the probability of this happening or when, if ever, this should occur. But it is an interesting thought in light of what you are studying here...

 

[Lulav]

Yes Tal, I have thought that could happen also. 360 is a number that I believe is truer to creation. It can be divded by 18, 60, 30, 12, all numbers you see a lot in the bible. We also have the incidents in the bible of the sun standing still and also the sundial of Hezekiah and the 15 years. It is interesting that during the Middle ages was it, that the calendar we now have was pushed ahead 15 days to make Easter fall out after the Spring Equinox?

I finally found the thread in which was on the subject of sapphire stones.. http://www.christianforums.com/t7470133/ and found much of what I found this time.. but with a few more adds.

 

[visionary]

Here is some more thoughts on the subject... Matthew 5:13-16; “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? ... You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid... Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” Messiah Yeshua is punctuating a seemingly simple teaching with symbolism straight from the Torah. His reference to salt alludes to the Ten Commandments and the light alludes to the brightness that emanated from Moses face. So does this mean we will also glow a light blue light.. the color of sapphire?

Talking about the two cubes in one of Moses' hand.. had me double checking..

Exodus 34:29 King James Version (KJV)
29 And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses wist not that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him.

and it seems to be saying it is so...

The light that radiated from Moses face had a function beyond that of being evidence of prolonged exposure to God's Presence. For the Midrash says that when he held aloft one cube, the light emanating from his face would send out a strong beam of light into the sky, which caused the commandments to appear overhead as God uttered them with an echo-less voice that came from every direction in the seventy known languages. The Midrash describes each utterance literally causing every Israelite’s heart to fail, which required God to continuously resurrect the Children of Israel at the close of each sentence. This ordeal was causing great trauma to the people, prompting them to plead with Moses to stop God speaking.

Exodus 19:19 “…You speak to us, and we will listen; but do not let Elohim speak to us, or we will die.’

This reminds me of the end of time when the Great Yom Kippur ... comes.

Found something..

Issachar's [stone was] Sapir [sapphire?], and the color of his flag was like azure [some: black], and [a picture of] a sun and a moon was drawn on it, because [as it says in I Chronicles 12:33] "And from the sons of Issachar were those who knew the wisdom of the times [i.e.,astronomy and calendars]". Flags of the Tribes of Israel

Tying the sapphire and the calendar to one tribe who have the picture of the sun and moon drawn on it.. coincidence that our generation has a fascination with the eclipses and feasts... and now the sapphire ...hmmm

That glass cube that you got from a friend.. was it lazier cut in order to get the design in the center?

I would have to say probably as it is not molded, that I can tell. When you turn it, it's almost like a hologram.

I looked around and googled and it is called a 3D laser cut hologram.

I've always pictured the 'cutting with the finger of G-d' as a laser, I've never pictured him with hammer and chisel.

So cool.... I agree.. only the best from our God.

This cube theory is completely new to me. Maybe they were, in shape, similar to the Urim and Thummim?

It is a real tragedy that we don't have access to the Ark and things like this today, indeed.

Interesting article on that.

We have to get our mind out of the cave man mentality and realize that many of the things in the bible were high tech and not primitive.

I've read some stuff about the pre-flood world, which you might appreciate. There's a bunch of evidence for that time period being, in some regards at least, very advanced (cf. the Antikythera mechanism). There's even some evidence the pyramids are antediluvian (eg water erosion and such.)

Yes, I've see that and it can't be explained away as an anomoly, it's clearly man made and mechanical.

As far as the pyramids, I did extensive research on Egyptology some years back, had my own library of books, till the L-RD told me to divest myself of them, which I did. But I do remember reading about the Great pyramid and the King's chamber, how salt water crystals were found in there and could only have formed if the pyramid was under water, salt water for a period of time.

It seems that the so called 'Sphinx' may be even older than the pyramids themselves. And the erosion on that seems to help prove it, also that it too went through the flood, but those who do not wish to involve the true G-d in this matter, attribute it so when Egypt was not a desert but a rainy area!
actually I think we've been 'dumbed down' for our own good and safety, and if you believe the apocryphal books that speak of the fallen angels teaching man this technology (and there are those who agree to a point by saying we got our technology, ancient and otherwise, from aliens) then all these archeological finds are so much easier to understand.

I don't think it's out of ignorance, but more out of fear. If you believe certain things they will lead you back to the Bible and those that don't want to go there will find any argument acceptable as long as it doesn't involve G-d.

(emph. mine)

Agree completely. The "scientists" have proven they are not objective, and will only accept certain evidence as evidence and certain proof as proof, according to their personal-religio-spiritual-worldview preferences (which are atheistic-secular.)
