Star of David is a fraud. Actually it is a Star of Remphan Acts 7:43

[Benaiah468]

The golden menorah was decorated, by Torah commandment, with the repeated form of a knob and a flower, often translated as knob and lily. The capitals atop the twin columns of Yachin and Boaz, the two pillars that King Solomon placed at the entrance to the Holy Temple, were likewise decorated with the pattern of the lily.

Also on coins issued by the kings of the Hasmoneans John Hyrcanus and Alexander Jannaeus the shape of a white rose of three leaves was minted, and it is the lily like the carved lily on the title of the Temple pillars

So the shape of the Star of David is found in the Torah, plain and simple!

G-d specifically commanded that the priests wear pomegranates on their garments (Ex 28:33-35; 39:24-26). Moreover, the Temple of G-d had the images of pomegranates and lilies on its pillars (1 Kings 7:18-26; 2 Chr 3:15-17).

In Song of Solomon we see that the Word of G-d presents the lily and the flower of the pomegranate in order to allude to divine love (Song of Solomon 5:13; 6:11; 7:2 .12).

It is clear that G-d uses these two symbols in the Bible: pomegranates and lilies. If you analyze their flowers, they look JUST like the Star of David.

In Hosea G-d says that the nation of Israel will blossom like the lily!

I will be as the dew unto Israel: he shall grow as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon. Hos 14:5

Interesting. It is really not so difficult to think of how the Israelites came up with the shape of this star

Yes, this star may be used by wicked people in unkosher circumstances, but so is the cross, the bible, and even the name of G-d. This means the symbol is perverted by some people, not wrong in and of itself! There is a huge difference.

And yes, the Bible speaks of a wicked star, but it speaks of a divine star as well! Analyze the prophecy in Num 24:15-19 and Mt 2:2.

Why are we so quick to say that the bad star in Amos 5:26, and Acts 7:43 is the Star of David as we know it today?

Is it because of antisemitism?

We must be very careful and do our homework before we draw conclusions.

 

[Benaiah468]

Lets see a few selected examples of how the Creator formulated the world around us without going into the chemistry and nature’s biological structures.

Snowflake (ice crystals shaped from water) formation begins with the growth of a small hexagonal base. The reason for this hexagonal shape is due to the crystalline network that ice naturally likes to take under conditions we are used to

Eventually they grow and evolve into bigger structures, interesting that they remain naturally hexagonal.

A dramatic quotation about the dangers of environmental upheaval is attributed to the brilliant physicist Albert Einstein. He said if the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe then man would only have four years of life left. No more bees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man.

Interesting that bees form their honeycombs naturally in a hexagonal shape

The structures in the pictures speak for themselves. These are just a few, there are of course many others.

In a hexagonal close-packed (HCP) arrangement of atoms (below), the unit cell consists of three layers of atoms. The top and bottom layers (a) contain six atoms at the corners of a hexagon and one atom at the center of each hexagon. The middle layer (b) contains three atoms nestled between the atoms of the top and bottom layers, hence, the name hexagonal close-packed.

Who put these hexagram structures in nature, YHVH or HaSatan?

Can HaSatan create? Does he have the same ability as YHVH to create?

Why does nature’s ongoing development takes a natural process to a hexagonal structure?

Only these few examples should undoubtedly convince us that the Star of David’s hexagram structure is deep designed in YHVH's creation. Nature’s ongoing Star of David hexagram shape should have any person seriously thinking.

The 10th star figure (Israel) consists of a frame and an inner part.

Surprisingly, this is divided into 156/385 for Zion/Shekinah. The Jewish morning prayer says:

And may our eyes behold when you return to Zion in mercy. Praise be to you, Eternal One, who brings back his Shekinah to Zion.

For the task of the righteous person is to become a temple for the Shekinah.

Zion also corresponds to the Sefira of Yesod (foundation [of the Torah])

Sefira is the Hebrew name for one of the ten divine emanations as a primordial principle, as an emanation of the divine in the Jewish tree of life; the Torah itself is referred to as the tree of life.

Joseph HaTsaddik (the Righteous) perfected himself specifically in this Sefira and therefore his name has the same gematria as Zion to indicate this.

Note also that the first three digits of the square root of 2 are 141, corresponding to the first 3 decimal places of π

√2 = 1,4142135...
π = 3,1415926...

Again 141, the gematria of the mitzvah (commandment). This is even clearer than π. The first occurrence of the sequence of digits 141 in the square root of 2 is in the 156th place (Zion)

How does one become a temple for the Shekhinah?

By strictly following the commandments of G-d out of love.

This was the special quality of Joseph, who overcame some of the most difficult hardships and temptations of all righteous people in history. For spirituality is not about reaching enlightenment on a mountaintop. Rather, it is about having a relationship with G-d in our daily lives.

The gematria of the expression mitsvah be-ahabah (commandment with love) is 156, which in turn corresponds to the gematria of Zion

be-ahabah (with love)

For by strictly following the commandments of G-d out of love, like Joseph HaTsaddik, one becomes a temple for the Shechinah (G-dly presence). The 613 commandments are designed precisely for this purpose.

The gematria of Gen 1:1 = 2701

The centre point of 1351 = 676 = 26^2


Only odd numbers have centres, therefore 676 is the LAST centre of 2701.

This mathematically demonstrates the philosophical and logical concept that the Torah reveals, namely: G-d (26 = numerical value of the tetragram) is the root of all creation, all that was, is and will be, both in terms of time and in terms of place/space etc.


YHVH
יהוה
10. י Yud 10
5. ה He 5
6. ו Vav 6

∑ 26


Because 676 is a square of 26, which means that 26 is the root of 676, which is the centre of 1351, which in turn is the centre of 2701, so 26 is literally, mathematically, biblically the root of the centre of the centre of Gen 1:1

In the beginning G-d created the heaven and the earth Gen 1:1


Interestingly, 2701 is the product of the two prime numbers 37 and 73.
So let's take the 37th prime number (157) and multiply it by the 73rd prime number (367).

157*367 = 57619

The sum of the thousands is 676, the centre of the centre of 2701!

57+619 = 676


In Hebrew, we represent 57619 as follows:

∑ 82(O) ∑ 676(S)


5(0)+7+4(00)+2(00)+1(0)+9 = 28


The standard gematria (S) is 676 = centre of the centre of Gen 1:1
The small gematria (excluding the zeros) is 28 = number of letters of Gen 1:1
The ordinal gematria (O) is 82 = the small gematria of Gen 1:1


Incidentally, the triangular value of these letters is 2613 = Bet Rabbati (large Bet) 2+613 = house (Bet) for 613 mitzvot (commandments)

Bet Rabbati (capital letter) is the first letter of Gen 1:1

Triangular value

 

[Benaiah468]

The number of rows (height) of a Star of David figure results from the formula:

H(star) = 4*(star number 1)+1

Example: The 10th star number (Israel) has 37 rows

H = 4*(10-1)+1
H = 37

Thus the 676th star has 2701 rows

H = 4*(676-1)+1
H = 2701


The 676th star has a height of 2701 rows and 2737801 dots

D = 6*676*(676-1)+1
D = 4056*(675)+1
D = 2737800+1
D = 2737801

Surprisingly, the star collapses in its sum of thousands to the 10th star (Israel=541):

2737801 = 2+737+801 = 1540 = 1+540 = 541 (Israel)

The outline of the star consists of 12144 dots

12+144 = 156 (Zion)

The inner part of the star consists of 2725657 dots

2+725+657 = 1+384 = 385 (Shekinah)

The 676th star number collapses in the sum of thousands to the 10th star number (Israel).

Thus the 676th Star of David has a total of 2737801 dots and is divided in the ratio 156/385 (Zion/Shekinah), just like the 10th Star of David (Israel) is divided in the ratio 156/385!

 

[Benaiah468]

There is of course a logical mathematical reason for this phenomenon, that the 676th star number in the sum of the thousands collapses to the 10th star number. Star of David figures collapse in this way every 333rd star number like the gematria of sheleg (snow), which is associated with the Star of David

Here is a picture of a real typical snowflake under the microscope

Triangular numbers do the same for the same reason.

The formula to determine a Star Number (n) is D = 6n (n-1) +1
6*343*(343-1)+1 = (2058*342)+1 = 703837 dots
Sum of Thousands 703+837 = 1540 = 1+540 = 541 (Israel, 10th star number)

6*10*(10-1)+1 = (60*9)+1 = 540+1 = 541 dots

The next is the 676th star and then the 1009th star

343+333 = 676
676+333 = 1009

which coincides to 10

1+009 = 10

and then 1342, which coincides with 343

1009+333 = 1342
1+342 = 343

The digital roots of this series are therefore 10, 343 and 676 and the rest are expansions

1342+333 = 1675 = 1+675 = 676
1675+333 = 2008 = 2+8 = 10
2008+333 = 2341 = 2+341 = 343

2341+333 = 2674 = 2+674 = 676
2674+333 = 3007 = 3+7 = 10
3007+333 = 3340 = 3+340 = 343

... and so on


It is astonishing that 676 happens to be the only star with a height of 2701 and that it has many parallels to the triangle 73 from Gen 1:1.

 

[Benaiah468]

Yeah, The Hexagram is used in witchcraft and magic, that's why "the synagogue of Satan" from Revelation 2:9 and 3:9 uses it.

The claim that the Magen David traces back to passages of Amos/Acts or Revelation, whether they’re interpreted correctly or not, is wrong and there are absolutely no data whatsoever that support any such connection this is entirely arbitrary.

There is absolutely nothing inappropriate or wrong about the adoption of the form of the hexagram as a symbol for Israel or for the Jewish people that has roots that go all the way back to the biblical and the early post-biblical period.

 

[Benaiah468]

Here's The Seal of Solomon and The magical circle and triangle used in the evocation of the seventy-two Demons from The Goetia / The Lesser Keys of Solomon that is a Spell Book / Grimoire that gives the names of Demons that Sorcerers get to do stuff for them as a form of Black Magic.

Magen David is used by a variety of societies throughout the world and througout time and so cant be reduced to a single significance or a single origin.

It is not actually demonic and of the occult to use the Magen David and this everything I dont understand or like is demonic rhetoric is indistinguishable from Bobby Boucher’s mom saying everything is the devil. Please get better educated.

 

[Benaiah468]

The 676th Star of David totals 541 dots and is divided in the ratio 156/385 (Zion/Shechina), exactly as the 10th Star of David (Israel) is divided in the ratio 156/385! (see #56)

This points to many things.

Firstly, it appears that man was created in the image of G-d (Gen. 1:27). It also seems to indicate that the purpose of man is to become like G-d, i.e. righteous and holy.

Lashon Hakodesh (literally ‘the tongue [of] holiness’) is a Jewish term and a designation for the Hebrew language. In a narrower sense, Lashon hakodesh does not refer to the Hebrew language in its entirety, but rather only to biblical Hebrew.

The G-d name Shadday is an acronym for the Hebrew words (מִי שֶׁאָמַר לְעוֹלָמוֹ דַי) Mi she'amar le'olamo dai, i.e. the one who said to His world: Enough! and refers to G-d restraining himself in order to be able to relate to a world

The clue in this number seems to be that G-d created ‘Bet’ (2), bereshit, using she'amar le'olamo dai (who said to His world: Enough!), (737), is using Hebrew which is called Lashon Hakodesh (801).


The 676th star consists of two triangles, the 2026th triangular number.

What we see here is the house of G-d, THE house with capital letters:

That's 2000 Bet Rabbati (capital Bet) + 26 (G-d)!

Two triangles together form the ultimate house of G-d in Israel, land, people and individual - the 676th star. This happens by uniting G-d with us from top to bottom and us with G-d from bottom to top!

This is the place for Zion.
This is the centre of the centre of 2701 (Gen 1:1)
And the root of it is 26 (G-d)
Shechinah in Zion in Israel. Both are star 541 = Israel!!!

 

[Der Alte]

When might we see credible, verifiable evidence that "The star of David is actually the star of Remphan" as the thread title states?

 

[Benaiah468]

There are absolutely no data whatsoever that connect the magen david to any star of remphan. Which by the way is just the Septuagint’s misunderstanding and Mistranslation of the Hebrew word khiun which is a reference to a mesopotamian deity associated with Saturn. Which also has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the magen David. This is just saying hey there’s a star we wanna demonize this star we’ll just say they’re the same thign. It’s just made up.

The triangle from Gen 1:1 (△73) is divided into the inner triangle (△37) with 703 points (Sabbath), which is surrounded by three triangles (△36) with 666 points each (6 = days of the week, physical world).

2701 = 2+701 = 703

2701 adds up to 703 in the sum of thousands, and this indicates that the Sabbath is the purpose of creation.

Mispar Kolel is the value (702) plus the number of words (1) in a sentence. The addition of 1 Kolel equals 703.

Eventually the world will reach the Messianic Age and beyond, where everything will be Sabbath. Our physical world will change and there will no longer be a need for money and worldly activities. This is the goal of creation. But it first requires the age of free will and mitzvah. For only in such a situation of struggle can a ‘person’ reach true levels of righteousness and holiness.

A parallel structure is shown by the hidden G-dly star 676, for it consists of the 10th star (Israel) in the centre surrounded by another 666 layers of new stars. Here too, the entire 676 star collapses in the thousands to form the Israel star

In context, the 666 layers seem to represent the nations of the world and their ideologies. The collapse of everything into the Israel Star indicates that in the future era, the truth of Israel will be indisputable to all of humanity. For over time, all sorts of religions and ideologies have arisen claiming that there is a new plan for humanity, etc., or that the Torah is obsolete or disproved, etc. Likewise, all sorts of idolatries are currently driving humanity, such as the accumulation of money, power, desires, etc. But eventually all falsehoods will collapse forever and everyone will see and know that there is only one true doctrine of faith and only one worthwhile endeavour in this world. As for the 666 layers around Israel, this seems to be the main message.

 

[The Liturgist]

Nobody should defend sin committed by non-Messianic Jews just because they're "God's people".

Sin committed by non-Christians is not our business - we should pray for everyone, but with sin, we should focus on repenting of our sin. And even when attempting to helpfully point out sin committed by other Christians, we must remember the dramatic warning given by our Lord, God and Savior Jesus Christ about calling out a brother with a splinter in his eye, when we have a beam stuck in our eye.

Thus as I see it, admonishing other Christians of sin should only be done in a spirit of love and charity, and then only in such a way that admits that we are ourselves the worst of sinners, and where possible, such admonitions should not be done personally, because in most cases, the subject of such an admonition can dismiss the admonisher as a hypocrite. What is more, “judge not, lest ye not be judged.”

 

[Benaiah468]

Pictures without any biblical evidence.

In the Septuagint (LXX) Moloch and Remphan appear in Amos 5:26, while in the Leningrad Codex of the Hebrew Bible we find Sikkuth and Kiyyun respectively.

None of these sources and also not Acts even remotely links the Star of David with paganism.

If Stephen had had the Star of David in mind, he would have associated it with the time of David or Solomon, not with slavery in Egypt.

Therefore, the conclusion of the whole matter is that there is no evidence that the Star of David is the star of your g-d, not something which we can derive from the Scripture. Clearly the prophecy refers to the idols Sikkuth and Kiyyun as your astral mighty ones, as this can be another possible translation, and in no way doesn't link them to King David or King Solomon, much less “the Star of David”' .

Last but not least is the commonly known ‘Star of David’ known in Hebrew as the Magen David or Shield of David, not as the ‘Star of David’.

Both the Torah and its prophetic passages contain many admonitions to Israel: ‘Fear not!’ This is what G-d is saying to the Israelis - and their leaders - at this time when they are in the midst of a seven-front war, the end of which is not yet in sight.

Before the return of the Messiah, the only way for the Jewish people to live ‘safely’ in His land is for Israel to extend its sovereignty to the entire land.

What a joy it is to see the return of the Jews to the land that G-d promised them. This is an incredible public sign to the world that G-d has fulfilled His word (Jer 1:12; 31:10). However, with this also comes a great responsibility, as G-d commands His body to actively participate in the aliyah.

The misuse of a symbol does not define it. It simply illuminates the motivation of the user.

Many Christian conspiracy theorists use this symbol to support their theory that Jews as a whole practice witchcraft and are the enemies of G-d. They say that because the Mekubbalim (Practitioners of Kabbalah) and Freemason movements use this symbol, that it is therefore a symbol of Satan, and that those who use it are subject to him. Hitler was able to use this same underlying anti-Semitic bias to vilify and literally label the Jewish people with the so called Star of David during the Second World War.

If you were to search the internet, you would find numerous results alluding to the Star of David as being an occult symbol. Those who lack discernment, consider these articles to convey the truth, they fail to understand that the internet, like the library and the universal visual media, is a place of information and that truth and information are not synonymous.

 

[Benaiah468]

You will look in vain for a Star of David in these pictures (#89) and if you do find one, then the image has been edited with Photoshop. There is not a single archaeological find from the time of ancient Israel that shows a Magen David together with a human or animal-like idol.

Symbols are nothing in themselves; they travel through time and cultures and only reflect the power WE give them: what they mean to us. The favourite propaganda tool was (and still is) to associate Judaism and its symbols with all kinds of satanic evil. The resurgence of these lies could trigger even greater persecution than the Holocaust, again because Christians believe these lies and see Jews as enemies. Will history repeat itself?

Paul addressed the issue of idolatry. He said, ‘we know that an idol is nothing in the world,’ 1 Cor 8:4

 

[Benaiah468]

You were literally shown Holy Scriptures showing that they worshipped demons and Also had "The Star" of their god.(Amos 5:26-27 and Acts 7:43)

It cannot be determined that the star in Amos is the six-pointed star we know today as the Star of David. There is no connection between "The Star" of their g-d and the magen david. no matter how much you search.

In opposite such attitudes can fuel anti-Semitism.

The anti-Semitic massacres and terrorist attacks in Israel motivate people all over the world to engage in anti-Semitic behaviour.

Many well-known anti-Semitic stereotypes are updated and applied to the Hamas massacres and the war in Israel and Gaza.

This justifies, trivialises or denies violence against Jews.

The situation in which many have to hide their Jewish identity is alarming and unacceptable.

Christians stand on Israel's side. Israel does not see the Messiah, but He is there. And one day He will visibly come to redeem His people, just as the Jews have always expected. And in the midst of Israel's flag, He has set His sign

All of this has nothing to do with worshipping demons unless you imagine it.

It's all for calling idolatry that which people attribute its own power or divinity. But I haven't seen anybody come close to doing either of those to the Star of David. I don't know anybody who doesn't see it as merely a symbol for something, and symbols aren't idolatry.

There is only one passage in the Bible in which the name David is linked to a star

In Revelation 22 Jesus is identified by two names at once; Root of David, and the Bright Morning Star. The magen David is a symbol that bears some unforeseen symbolism with the coming of Yeshua as Messiah.

One cannot simultaneously claim that the Menorah refers to Christ and the Star of David instead refers to demonic deities. Both are jewish symbols. Both point to the Messiah. Therefore the Star of David is a generally recognized symbol of both Jewish identity and Christian faith in Jesus Christ.

Paul also says they are our enemies in Romans 11:28


"Concerning the gospel They Are Enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers."

- Romans 11:28


And they literally view us as Cattle / Animals / Goyim / Less than human, because The Talmud tells them this.

One might gain from a cursory reading of the Talmud is a xenophobic attitude towards non-Jews.

In contrast the Talmud is, first and foremost, a record of debates between different sages on how to interpret and apply the Torah, not a book of statements that people are expected to accept uncritically- or even accept at all. It`s a tool for sharpening the wits and reasoning skills of rabbis in training. Quoting the Talmud out of context, to make a specific point, really doesn’t mean anything. The vast majority of these opinions are, in the end, rejected and not the basis of Jewish law as it exists today.

You can find all kinds of provocative statements in the Talmud and they are there to spark an argument. Studying Talmud means studying these arguments in order to understand the principles and logic on which they are constructed.

If Rabbi Oni says, “gentiles are cattle”, in the next line Rabbi Ploni says “no, gentiles are not cattle because X, Y, Z” to which Rabbi Babbaloni says “Ah but what about A, B, C? “ to which Rabbi Pepperoni says “but in Genesis does it not say “L, M, N, O, P? “ and so on.
