There is no mention of them in ANY Hebraic/Jewish writings, including the Talmud. Nimrod married a woman named Semiramis. Sumerians worshipped the mother/son duo. The prophet, Jeremiah, prophesied about the worship of this goddess: The women added, When we burned incense to the Queen of Heaven and poured out drink offerings to her, did not our husbands know that we were making cakes like her image and pouring out drink offerings to her? Then Jeremiah said to all the people, both men and women, who were answering him, Did not the Lord remember and think about the incense burned in the towns of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem by you and your fathers, your kings and your officials and the people of the land?

Tammuz is simply referred to as a lover of Ishtar's youth. These leaders displayed no social responsibility whatsoever. And called a lady of love and war. See what over 150,000 subscribers are already receiving each day. There is no historical evidence for the claim beyond the writings of the Greek historians. I certainly am not advocating Easter itself (see my writing is Easter Christian?) A statement of Plato seems to show, that in his day the Egyptian Osiris was regarded as identical with Tammuz; * and Tammuz is well known to have been the same as Adonis, the famous HUNTSMAN, for whose death Venus is fabled to have made such bitter lamentations. Nimrod became the Roman god Bacchus, which means, 'the son of Cush.' Bacchus was god of wine and revelry. There was an ancient tradition that he came to a violent end. It is known that Nimrod and Semiramis (i.e. The real Semiramis the person on which she is most likely based was actually Sammu-Ramat who ruled as queen from 811-806 BC after the death of her husband King Shamshi-Adad V ( 823-811B.C) She was queen in of the Assyrian Empire as regent until her son King Adad-nirari III took rule. Inanna ordered that the people weep for Damuzi .The people would symbolically weep for Damuzi as in weep for instead of him. Many people claim that Nimrod, Semiramis and Tammuz are the pagan trinity. Clinton, who is of high authority in chronology, places the reign of Ninus somewhat earlier. God often judged His own people, the Israelites, more severely than the pagans adhering to these practices. It would seem that history and myth have converged together and the Greek hellenistic writers have created a goddess out of a queen. Historians consider the Persian imperial political structure and administrative forms to be the finest example of government before the Roman period. Again simply through association and a whole heap of assumption. While this all might seem like it does what it is supposed that it does, and prove that Nimrod was none other than Ninus and Semiramis was married to Ninus who was Nimrod and so therefore also proves Semiramis was indeed married to Nimrod, there are some major and irreconcilable flaws in the evidence used to prove it.

Cyrus, a Persian, initiated the growth of the empire by usurping the Median throne with the help of the Median nobility. Mythology portrays Semiramis as world civilizations worshipped her in that way. . In like manner, some Catholics attribute to Mary the position and characteristics of the third person of their unscriptural trinity, the Holy Spirit. We also reserve the right to delete any comments deemed to be threatening or rude in any way at any time. Fortunately, mostly strong and capable rulers won these struggles, especially during its first century, and kept the empire whole for over two hundred years. Catholics renamed pagan gods and practices to sound more Christian. There is nothing in the Bible that would even hint at the narrative let alone give us this story. Is God omnipresent? This being why the Assyrians worship the dove and in doing so deifying Semiramis. Eusebius says that Ninus and Semiramis reigned in the time of Abraham., For the age of Shem see Genesis 11:10, 11. 1 Timothy 3:16 what is the correct reading? (1 Pedro 3:15) Bienvenido!

Semiramis is also credited with building other cities along the Euphrates and Tigris rivers.It is then stated that she built the stone obelisk to herself. Semiramis and Ninus emerge as monarchs of Assyria only in Greek versions of Assyrian history and never in the history of the Assyrians themselves It was for many centuries that most of the information regarding Mesopotamia came from these classical Greek writers. Itt would seem that Hislop simply chooses which parts of a story and from which version of the story to take and make up the correct story. In an effort to retain power and to hide her misdeeds, Semiramis makes a most audacious claim. The mystery religion of Babylon probably originated in the evil mind of Semiramis. The two arms of the image symbolize this division. Through assumption, comparative theology, the use of incorrect and inaccurate historical information, association, misrepresentation and a whole heap of amalgamating together numerous and unrelated ancient myths and stories based on similarities ,cherry picking pieces of information while simply ignoring others or imposing any one or any combination of the aforementioned. The writings of Ctesias are not entirely factual in fact most of what Ctesias wrote cannot be claimed as historically true . Even if the person making the claim does not know it themselves.

The last book of the Bible, chapters 17 and 18, describes Gods utter destruction of Babylon in the last days. Why did God instruct stoning as a punishment. . The Birth of Tammuz And Polytheism It cannot go without mention that the child part of Hislops theory is very noticeably lacking in the various writings of the Greek historians that Hislop uses. He wrote many works. Erec-ki-gala gave instructions that the 7 gates of the underworld would be locked and Inanna must go through each shedding one divine power at each gate. Ishtar has her mind set on the underworld. The prophetic destruction includes the wicked city itself, as well as the rebellious religion it generated. Semiramis became Queen of Assyria.

She demands that the bull of heaven be given unto her and threatens to goto the underworld and cause mayhem if her demands are not met. God executed that judgment shortly thereafter, when King Nebuchadnezzars Babylonian army destroyed Jerusalem. It bears its Chaldean origin on its very forehead. Charles Whitaker (1944-2021) Nimrod became a god-man to the people and Semiramis, his wife and mother, became the powerful Queen of ancient Babylon. Eusebius references the Babylonian writer Berossus, complaining that the Greeks attributed to Semiramis great building projects she had no hand in, while Polyaenus references inscriptions of hers testifying to her exploits and the construction of impregnable walls of her cities.

It is interesting to note though that rather early on in his work, Plutarch makes the point that the Egyptians did not take these stories as being that of fact rather they were actually just stories that were allegorically constructed and symbolic. Nimrods followers assigned him many mythical names that implicate works achieved only by the true Son of God, Jesus Christ.
