 Post subject: 666 as per the OT.
PostPosted: Wed Mar 03, 2010 3:15 pm 
A randon statement that describes the yearly income of an emperor, in this case, Solomon.
Years later, Nehemiah would find it necessary to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem.
Why?
Because the lack of the same would permit the unhindered access from bandits, a matter later described in both the NT and Josephus.
Once the walls had been repaired, it would be easier to attract settlers from all parts.
Plus, when you consider the problem Nehemiah had with foreign vendors, you see the next step.
That would be that of exercising local authority to include the taxation that eventually funded the costly reconstruction of Judea's infrastructure.
So, in both cases, only those that are under authority can access the local market.
The law would describe how the authority placed over an individual would be symbolized with the word tied to the wrist and forehead, by thought and action for all to see.
So, now you have a different perspective on the past and future.

Say what? I am lost of translation what 666 has to do with the rebuilding of the wall?

The "antichrist" is not going to fulfill anything in the book of revelation-666 etc. The "antichrist" does not believe in the new testament.

The book of Revelation is telling about that which already Was, the Present And the Future.

The subject of the 666 is talked about in Rev. 13. But we don't know Who he will be. Lots of speculation. It is a Future happening.
