The Prophecy of Baruch



  Note the word: Chanaan = (Canaan), Juda = (Judah),

[Note: Chaldees = (Chaldeans)]

It is writing two times in Judith 5:7, two times in Baruch. The name Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) = (Chal - deans = (Chal - daeans) is similar to an Arabic name, “sala aldine” or “Salah aldean” "Salah Aldine" is the moslem = (muslim) invader during the 11 century. Chal -deans = (Chal -daeans), in Arabic is "Salah dean" or " Salah Aldaen", he battled against the Crusaders and defeated them, he burnet Jerusalem completely Baruch 1:2, he defeated the crusaders in the Middle East, Africa, and in part of Europe. The name Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) means in Arabic “the corrector of religion” or “the correction of religion” or “ the righteous religion”. The word "Salah" in Arabic means "corrector" "correction" "righteousness" . The word "Dean" or "Daen" or "dine" in Arabic means "religion". The name ‘Chaldeans’ existed around 750 BC; it is writing two times in Judith 5:7, two times in Baruch 1:2, one time in Acts 7:4, one time in Habakkuk 1:6, six times in Ezekiel 1:3, one time in Job 1:17, it is mentioned forty four times in Jeremiah 21:4, seven times in Isaiah 13:19, ten times in Daniel 1:4, and two times in the book of second Chronicle 36:6. Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) during 750 BC is not the same as Chaldeans = (Salah Aldine) that led the moslems = (muslims) during the 11 century.


Chapter 1

1 And these are the words of the book, which Baruch the son of Nerias, the son of Maasias, the son of Sedecias, the son of Sedei, the son of Helcias, wrote in Babylonia.

2 In the fifth year, in the seventh day of the month, at the time that the Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) = (Salah aldine) took Jerusalem, and burnt it with fire.

3 And Baruch read the words of this book in the hearing of Jechonias the son of Joakim = (Jehoiakim) king of Juda = (Judah), and in the hearing of all the people that came to hear the book.

4 And in the hearing of the nobles, the sons of the kings, and in the hearing of the ancients, and in the hearing of the people, from the least even to the greatest of them that dwelt in Babylonia, by the river Sedi.

5 And when they heard it they wept, and fasted, and prayed before the Lord.

6 And they made a collection of money, according to every man's power.

7 And they sent it to Jerusalem to Joakim = (Jehoiakim) the priest, the son of Helcias, the son of Salom, and to the priests, and to all the people, that were found with him in Jerusalem:

8 At the time when he received the vessels of the temple of the Lord, which had been taken away out of the temple, to return them into the land of Juda = (Judah) the tenth day of the month Sivan, the silver vessels, which Sedecias the son of Josias king of Juda = (Judah) had made,

9 After that Nabuchodonosor = (Nebuchadrezzar) = (Nebuchadnezzar) the king of Babylon had carried away Jechonias, and the princes, and all the powerful men, and the people of the land from Jerusalem, and brought them bound to Babylon.

10 And they said: Behold we have sent you money, buy with it holocausts, and frankincense, and make meat offerings, and offerings for sin at the altar of the Lord our God:

11 And pray ye for the life of Nabuchodonosor = (Nebuchadrezzar) = (Nebuchadnezzar) the king of Babylon, and for the life of Balthasar his son, that their days may be upon earth as the days of heaven:

12 And that the Lord may give us strength, and enlighten our eyes, that we may live under the shadow of Nabuchodonosor = (Nebuchadrezzar) = (Nebuchadnezzar) the king of Babylon, and under the shadow of Balthasar his son, and may serve them many days, and may find favour in their sight.

13 And pray ye for us to the Lord our God: for we have sinned against the Lord our God, and his wrath is not turned away from us even to this day.

14 And read ye this book, which we have sent to you to be read in the temple of the Lord, on feasts, and proper days.

15 And you shall say: To the Lord our God belongeth justice, but to us confusion of our face: as it is come to pass at this day to all Juda = (Judah), and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem,

16 To our kings, and to our princes, and to our priests, and to our prophets, and to our fathers.

17 We have sinned before the Lord our God, and have not believed him, nor put our trust in him:

18 And we were not obedient to him, and we have not harkened to the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his commandments, which he hath given us.

19 From the day that he brought our fathers out of the land of Egypt, even to this day, we were disobedient to the Lord our God: and going astray we turned away from hearing his voice.

20 And many evils have cleaved to us, and the curses which the Lord foretold by Moses his servant: who brought our fathers out of the land of Egypt, to give us a land flowing with milk and honey, as at this day.

21 And we have not hearkened to the voice of the Lord our God according to all the words of the prophets whom he sent to us:

22 And we have gone away every man after the inclinations of his own wicked heart, to serve strange gods, and to do evil in the sight of the Lord our God.

Chapter 2

1 Wherefore the Lord our God hath made good his word, that he spoke to us, and to our judges that have judged Israel, and to our kings, and to our princes, and to all Israel and Juda = (Judah):

2 That the Lord would bring upon us great evils, such as never happened under heaven, as they have come to pass in Jerusalem, according to the things that are written in the law of Moses:

3 That a man should eat the flesh of his own son, and the flesh of his own daughter.

4 And he hath delivered them up to be under the hand of all the kings that are round about us, to be a reproach, and desolation among all the people, among whom the Lord hath scattered us.

5 And we are brought under, and are not uppermost: because we have sinned against the Lord our God, by not obeying his voice.

6 To the Lord our God belongeth justice: but to us, and to our fathers confusion of face, as at this day.

7 For the Lord hath pronounced against us all these evils that are come upon us:

8 And we have not entreated the face of the Lord our God, that we might return every one of us from our most wicked ways.

9 And the Lord hath watched over us for evil, and hath brought it upon us: for the Lord is just in all his works which he hath commanded us:

10 And we have not hearkened to his voice to walk in the commandments of the Lord which he hath set before us.

11 And now, O Lord God of Israel, who hast brought thy people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and with signs, and with wonders, and with thy great power, and with a mighty arm, and hast made thee a name as at this day,

12 We have sinned, we have done wickedly, we have acted unjustly, O Lord our God, against all thy justices.

13 Let thy wrath be turned away from us: for we are left a few among the nations where thou hast scattered us.

14 Hear, O Lord, our prayers, and our petitions, and deliver us for thy own sake: and grant that we may find favour in the sight of them that have led us away:

15 That all the earth may know that thou art the Lord our God, and that thy name is called upon Israel, and upon his posterity.

16 Look down upon us, O Lord, from thy holy house, and incline thy ear, and hear us.

17 Open thy eyes, and behold: for the dead that are in hell, whose spirit is taken away from their bowels, shall not give glory and justice to the Lord:

18 But the soul that is sorrowful for the greatness of evil she hath done, and goeth bowed down, and feeble, and the eyes that fail, and the hungry soul giveth glory and justice to thee the Lord.

19 For it is not for the justices of our fathers that we pour out our prayers, and beg mercy in thy sight, O Lord our God:

20 But because thou hast sent out thy wrath, and thy indignation upon us, as thou hast spoken by the hand of thy servants the prophets, saying:

21 Thus saith the Lord: Bow down your shoulder, and your neck, and serve the king of Babylon: and you shall remain in the land which I have given to your fathers.

22 But if you will not hearken to the voice of the Lord your God, to serve the king of Babylon: I will cause you to depart out of the cities of Juda = (Judah), and from without Jerusalem.

23 And I will take away from you the voice of mirth, and the voice of joy, and the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, and all the land shall be without any footstep of inhabitants.

24 And they hearkened not to thy voice, to serve the king of Babylon: and thou hast made good thy words, which thou spokest by the hands of thy servants the prophets, that the bones of our kings, and the bones of our fathers should be removed out of their place:

25 And behold they are cast out to the heat of the sun, and to the frost of the night: and they have died in grievous pains, by famine, and by the sword, and in banishment.

26 And thou hast made the temple, in which thy name was called upon, as it is at this day, for the iniquity of the house of Israel, and the house of Juda = (Judah).

27 And thou hast dealt with us, O Lord our God, according to all thy goodness, and according to all that great mercy of thine:

28 As thou spokest by the hand of thy servant Moses, in the day when thou didst command him to write thy law before the children of Israel,

29 Saying: If you will not hear my voice, this great multitude shall be turned into a very small number among the nations, where I will scatter them:

30 For I know that the people will not hear me, for they are a people of a stiff neck: but they shall turn to their heart in the land of their captivity:

31 And they shall know that I am the Lord their God: and I will give them a heart, and they shall understand: and ears, and they shall hear.

32 And they shall praise me in the land of their captivity, and shall be mindful of my name.

33 And they shall turn away themselves from their stiff neck, and from their wicked deeds: for they shall remember the way of their fathers, that sinned against me.

34 And I will bring them back again into the land which I promised with an oath to their fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and they shall be masters thereof: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be diminished.

35 And I will make with them another covenant that shall be everlasting, to be their God, and they shall be my people: and I will no more remove my people, the children of Israel, out of the land that I have given them.

Chapter 3

1 And now, O Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, the soul in anguish, and the troubled spirit crieth to thee:

2 Hear, O Lord, and have mercy, for thou art a merciful God, and have pity on us: for we have sinned before thee.

3 For thou remainest for ever, and shall we perish everlastingly?

4 O Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, hear now the prayer of the dead of Israel, and of their children, that have sinned before thee, and have not hearkened to the voice of the Lord their God, wherefore evils have cleaved fast to us.

5 Remember not the iniquities of our fathers, but think upon thy hand, and upon thy name at this time:

6 For thou art the Lord our God, and we will praise thee, O Lord:

7 Because for this end thou hast put thy fear in our hearts, to the intent that we should call upon thy name, and praise thee in our captivity, for we are converted from the iniquity of our fathers, who sinned before thee.

8 And behold we are at this day in our captivity, whereby thou hast scattered us to be a reproach, and a curse, and an offence, according to all the iniquities of our fathers, who departed from thee, O Lord our God.

9 Hear, O Israel, the commandments of life: give ear, that thou mayst learn wisdom.

10 How happeneth it, O Israel, that thou art in thy enemies' land?

11 Thou art grown old in a strange country, thou art defiled with the dead: thou art counted with them that go down into hell.

12 Thou hast forsaken the fountain of wisdom :

13 For if thou hadst walked in the way of God, thou hadst surely dwelt in peace for ever.

14 Learn where is wisdom, where is strength, where is understanding: that thou mayst know also where is length of days and life, where is the light of the eyes, and peace.

15 Who hath found out her place? and who hath gone in to her treasures?

16 Where are the princes of the nations, and they that rule over the beasts that are upon the earth?

17 That take their diversion with the birds of the air.

18 That hoard up silver and gold, wherein men trust, and there is no end of their getting? who work in silver and are solicitous, and their works are unsearchable.

19 They are cut off, and are gone down to hell, and others are risen up in their place.

20 Young men have seen the light, and dwelt upon the earth: but the way of knowledge they have not known,

21 Nor have they understood the paths thereof, neither have their children received it, it is far from their face.

22 It hath not been heard of in the land of Chanaan = (Canaan), neither hath it been seen in Theman.

23 The children of Agar = (Hagar) = (Hager) also, that search after the wisdom that is of the earth, the merchants of Merrha, and of Theman, and the tellers of fables, and searchers of prudence and understanding: but the way of wisdom they have not known, neither have they remembered her paths.

24 O Israel, how great is the house of God, and how vast is the place of his possession!

25 It is great, and hath no end: it is high and immense.

26 There were the giants, those renowned men that were from the beginning, of great stature, expert in war.

27 The Lord chose not them, neither did they find the way of knowledge: therefore did they perish.

28 And because they had not wisdom, they perished through their folly.

29 Who hath gone up into heaven, and taken her, and brought her down from the clouds?

30 Who hath passed over the sea, and found her, and brought her preferably to chosen gold?

31 There is none that is able to know her ways, nor that can search out her paths :

32 But he that knoweth all things, knoweth her, and hath found her out with his understanding: he that prepared the earth for evermore, and filled it with cattle and fourfooted beasts:

33 He that sendeth forth light, and it goeth: and hath called it, and it obeyeth him with trembling.

34 And the stars have given light in their watches, and rejoiced:

35 They were called, and they said: Here we are: and with cheerfuIness they have shined forth to him that made them.

36 This is our God, and there shall no other be accounted of in comparison of him.

37 He found out all the way of knowledge, and gave it to Jacob his servant, and to Israel his beloved.

38 Afterwards he was seen upon earth, and conversed with men.

Chapter 4

1 This is the book of the commandments of God, and the law, that is for ever: all they that keep it, shall come to life: but they that have forsaken it, to death.

2 Return, O Jacob, and take hold of it, walk in the way by its brightness, in the presence of the light thereof.

3 Give not thy honour to another, nor thy dignity to a strange nation.

4 We are happy, O Israel: because the things that are pleasing to God, are made known to us.

5 Be of good comfort, O people of God, the memorial of Israel:

6 You have been sold to the Gentiles, not for your destruction: but because you provoked God to wrath, you are delivered to your adversaries.

7 For you have provoked him who made you, the eternal God, offering sacrifice to devils, and not to God.

8 For you have forgotten God, who brought you up, and you have grieved Jerusalem that nursed you.

9 For she saw the wrath of God coming upon you, and she said: Give ear, all you that dwell near Sion = (Zion), for God hath brought upon me great mourning:

10 For I have seen the captivity of my people, of my sons, and my daughters, which the Eternal hath brought upon them.

11 For I nourished them with joy: but I sent them away with weeping and mourning.

12 Let no man rejoice over me, a widow, and desolate: I am forsaken of many for the sins of my children, because they departed from the law of God.

13 And they have not known his justices, nor walked by the ways of God's commandments, neither have they entered by the paths of his truth and justice.

14 Let them that dwell about Sion = (Zion) come, and remember the captivity of my sons and daughters, which the Eternal hath brought upon them.

15 For he hath brought a nation upon them from afar, a wicked nation, and of Persian [strange tongue:]

[Note: the Arabic version of the bible society of Lebanon the word "strange tongue" is "Persian.]

16 Who have neither reverenced the ancient, nor pitied children, and have carried away the beloved of the widow, and have left me all alone without children.

17 But as for me, what help can I give you?

18 But he that hath brought the evils upon you, he will deliver you out of the hands of your enemies.

19 Go your way, my children, go your way: for I am left alone.

20 I have put off the robe of peace, and have put upon me the sackcloth of supplication, and I will cry to the most High in my days.

21 Be of good comfort, my children, cry to the Lord, and he will deliver you out of the hand of the princes your enemies.

22 For my hope is in the Eternal that he will save you: and joy is come upon me from the Holy One, because of the mercy which shall come to you from our everlasting Saviour.

23 For I sent you forth with mourning and weeping: but the Lord will bring you back to me with joy and gladness for ever.

24 For as the neighbours of Sion = (Zion) have now seen your captivity from God: so shall they also shortly see your salvation from God, which shall come upon you with great honour, and everlasting glory.

25 My children, suffer patiently the wrath that is come upon you: for thy enemy hath persecuted thee, but thou shalt quickly see his destruction: and thou shalt get up upon his neck.

26 My delicate ones have walked rough ways, for they were taken away as a flock made a prey by the enemies.

27 Be of good comfort, my children, and cry to the Lord: for you shall be remembered by him that hath led you away.

28 For as it was your mind to go astray from God; so when you return again you shall seek him ten times as much.

29 For he that hath brought evils upon you, shall bring you everlasting joy again with your salvation.

30 Be of good heart, O Jerusalem: for he exhorteth thee, that named thee.

31 The wicked that have afflicted thee, shall perish: and they that have rejoiced at thy ruin, shall be punished.

32 The cities which thy children have served, shall be punished: and she that received thy sons.

33 For as she rejoiced at thy ruin, and was glad of thy fall: so shall she be grieved for her own desolation.

34 And the joy of her multitude shall be cut off: and her gladness shall be turned to mourning.

35 For fire shall come upon her from the Eternal, long to endure, and she shall be inhabited by devils for a great time.

36 Look about thee, O Jerusalem, towards the east, and behold the joy that cometh to thee from God.

37 For behold thy children come, whom thou sentest away scattered, they come gathered together from the east even to the west, at the word of the Holy One rejoicing for the honour of God.

Chapter 5

1 Put off, O Jerusalem, the garment of thy mourning, and affliction: and put on the beauty, and honour of that everlasting glory which thou hast from God.

2 God will clothe thee with the double garment of justice, and will set a crown on thy head of everlasting honour.

3 For God will shew his brightness in thee, to every one under heaven.

4 For thy name shall be named to thee by God for ever: the peace of justice, and honour of piety.

5 Arise, O Jerusalem, and stand on high: and look about towards the east, and behold thy children gathered together from the rising to the setting sun, by the word of the Holy One rejoicing in the remembrance of God.

6 For they went out from thee on foot, led by the enemies: but the Lord will bring them to thee exalted with honour as children of the kingdom.

7 For God hath appointed to bring down every high mountain, and the everlasting rocks, and to fill up the valleys to make them even with the ground: that Israel may walk diligently to the honour of God.

8 Moreover the woods, and every sweet-smelling tree have overshadowed Israel by the commandment of God.

9 For God will bring Israel with joy in the light of his majesty, with mercy, and justice, that cometh from him.

Chapter 6

A copy of the epistle that Jeremias = (Jeremiah)  sent to them that were to be led away captives into Babylon, by the king of Babylon, to declare to them according to what was commanded him by God.

1 For the sins that you have committed before God, you shall be carried away captives into Babylon by Nabuchodonosor = (Nebuchadrezzar) = (Nebuchadnezzar) the king of Babylon.

2 And when you are come into Babylon, you shall be there many years, and for a long time, even to seven generations: and after that I will bring you away from thence with peace.

3 But now, you shall see in Babylon gods of gold, and of silver, and of stone, and of wood borne upon shoulders, causing fear to the Gentiles.

4 Beware therefore that you imitate not the doings of others, and be afraid, and the fear of them should seize upon you.

5 But when you see the multitude behind, and before, adoring them, say you in your hearts: Thou oughtest to be adored, O Lord.

6 For my angel is with you: And I myself will demand an account of your souls.

7 For their tongue that is polished by the craftsman, and themselves laid over with gold and silver, are false things, and they cannot speak.

8 And as if it were for a maiden that loveth to go gay: so do they take gold and make them up.

9 Their gods have golden crowns upon their heads: whereof the priests secretly convey away from them gold, and silver, and bestow it on themselves.

10 Yea and they give thereof to prostitutes, and they dress out harlots: and again when they receive it of the harlots, they adorn their gods.

11 And these gods cannot defend themselves from the rust, and the moth.

12 But when they have covered them with a purple garment, they wipe their face because of the dust of the house, which is very much among them.

13 This holdeth a sceptre as a man, as a judge of the country, but cannot put to death one that offendeth him.

14 And this hath in his hand a sword, or an axe, but cannot save himself from war, or from robbers, whereby be it known to you, that they are not gods.

15 Therefore fear them not. For as a vessel that a man uses when it is broken becometh useless, even so are their gods:

16 When they are placed in the house, their eyes are full of dust by the feet of them that go in.

17 And as the gates are made sure on every side upon one that hath offended the king, or like a dead man carried to the grave, so do the priests secure the doors with bars and locks, lest they be stripped by thieves.

18 They light candles to them, and in great number, of which they cannot see one: but they are like beams in the house.

19 And they say that the creeping things which are of the earth, gnaw their hearts, while they eat them and their garments, and they feel it not.

20 Their faces are black with the smoke that is made in the house.

21 Owls, and swallows, and other birds fly upon their bodies, and upon their heads, and cats in like manner.

22 Whereby you may know that they are no gods. Therefore fear them not.

23 The gold also which they have, is for shew, but except a man wipe off the rust, they will not shine: for neither when they were molten, did they feel it.

24 Men buy them at a high price, whereas there is no breath in them.

25 And having not the use of feet they are carried upon shoulders, declaring to men how vile they are. Be they confounded also that worship them.

26 Therefore if they fall to the ground, they rise not up again of themselves, nor if a man set them upright, will they stand by themselves, but their gifts shall be set before them, as to the dead.

27 The things that are sacrificed to them, their priests sell and abuse: in like manner also their wives take part of them, but give nothing of it either to the sick, or to the poor.

28 The childbearing and menstruous women touch their sacrifices: knowing therefore by these things that they are not gods, fear them not.

29 For how can they be called gods? because women set offerings before the gods of silver, and of gold, and of wood:

30 And priests sit in their temples, having their garments rent, and their heads and beards shaven, and nothing upon their heads.

31 And they roar and cry before their gods, as men do at the feast when one is dead.

32 The priests take away their garments, and clothe their wives and their children.

33 And whether it be evil that one doth unto them, or good, they are not able to recompense it: neither can they set up a king nor put him down:

34 In like manner they can neither give riches, nor requite evil. If a man make a vow to them, and perform it not, they cannot require it.

35 They cannot deliver a man from death nor save the weak from the mighty.

36 They cannot restore the blind man to his sight: nor deliver a man from distress.

37 They shall not pity the widow, nor do good to the fatherless.

38 Their gods, of wood, and of stone, and of gold, and of silver, are like the stones that are hewn out of the mountains: and they that worship them shall be confounded.

39 How then is it to be supposed, or to be said, that they are gods?

40 Even the Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) = (Salah aldine) themselves dishonour them: who when they hear of one dumb that cannot speak, they present him to Bel, entreating him, that he may speak,

41 As though they could be sensible that have no motion themselves: and they, when they shall perceive this, will leave them: for their gods themselves have no sense.

[Note: Chaldees = (Chaldeans)]

It is writing two times in Judith 5:7, two times in Baruch. The name Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) = (Chal - deans = (Chal - daeans) is similar to an Arabic name, “sala aldine” or “Salah aldean” "Salah Aldine" is the moslem = (muslim) invader during the 11 century. Chal -deans = (Chal -daeans), in Arabic is "Salah dean" or " Salah Aldaen", he battled against the Crusaders and defeated them, he burnet Jerusalem completely Baruch 1:2, he defeated the crusaders in the Middle East, Africa, and in part of Europe. The name Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) means in Arabic “the corrector of religion” or “the correction of religion” or “ the righteous religion”. The word "Salah" in Arabic means "corrector" "correction" "righteousness" . The word "Dean" or "Daen" or "dine" in Arabic means "religion". The name ‘Chaldeans’ existed around 750 BC; it is writing two times in Judith 5:7, two times in Baruch 1:2, one time in Acts 7:4, one time in Habakkuk 1:6, six times in Ezekiel 1:3, one time in Job 1:17, it is mentioned forty four times in Jeremiah 21:4, seven times in Isaiah 13:19, ten times in Daniel 1:4, and two times in the book of second Chronicle 36:6. Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) during 750 BC is not the same as Chaldeans = (Salah Aldine) that led the moslems = (muslims) during the 11 century.

However, it is believed by scholars that the name and the evil personality of Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) reincarnated in Salah Aldine. There isn't any similarity because the modern people of Chaldees or Chaldeans in this era and during Jesus' era also are Christians. They are named in Arabic "kaldan" or "Kaldanieen" or "Kaldani". These Christians do live in Iraq, they have been persecuted by Islam for the past fifteen centuries and mostly in the twentieth first centuries, The Kaldan Christians are killed, persecuted, exiled, and their churches are burnet and demolished by explosives by the moslem shiites of Iran. During Saddam Hussein, the Kalden Christians were treated much better. After the death of Saddam, the Almahdi Army of Iran are forcing the Moslem = Muslim Sunnis and the Christians in Iraq to convert to Muslims Shiite. Moreover, they are forcing them to joint their ideology and to establish the Islamic state in Iran to Islamize and overwhelm the world.

Biblically, Chaldees or Chaldeans is a region in Iraq, but in modern days, this name is a group of Christian people that live in Iraq also.

Biblically and according to personal objectives, the name Cain became Canaan. And from the seed of Cain came the giants of the old days and the daughters of men. Did Cain kill his brother? These biblical passages were added later to disgrace Cain and the Canaanites' race. Let's read part of these modifications, Cain killed his brother Abel and the spirit of Cain reincarnated after the flood in Canaan the grand son of Noah. Canaan's seed were ungodly and anti Semitism. The name Cain in Arabic is Canaan. It is the same with Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans), this person was anti Semitism and Salah Aldine was anti Semitism also. The name Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) in Arabic is Salah Aldine.

The moslems = (muslims) name the crusades or the crusaders "Salibian" which refers to the cross of Christ. The "cross" in Arabic language is "salib"; therefore, they name the crusaders "Salib-ian" or "Salibieen", because the crusades placed the cross’ sign on their uniforms. The moslems = (muslims) named them the cross' worshippers also. The Arabs consider the crusades Christians and the enemies of Islam. It is true that the European Crusades battled against the moslems = (muslims) in the Middle East to liberate the holy Land Jerusalem from the Islamic invasions in the eleventh century.

The land of Chaldees = Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) = (Salah aldine) is located in Iraq “Babel” near Mesopotamia, Genesis 11:28.

Modern people of Chaldees or Chaldeans in this era and during Jesus' era also are Christians. They are named in Arabic "kaldan" or "Kaldanieen" or "Kaldani". These Christians do live in Iraq, they have been persecuted by Islam for the past fifteen centuries,

The word “Mesopotamia” where Abraham dwelt before God commanded him to move to Charan = (Charran), Acts 7:2 to 4. In Genesis 24:10 the word "Mesopotamia = (Padanaram)" is (Padanaram) or (Padan-Aram) or (Padan) in the bible society of Lebanon says (field of Aram). Genesis 11:28. In Deuteronomy 23:4, Mesopotamia is in Syria according to the translation of the bible society of Lebanon. According to king James bible, reads: [he went to Mesopotamia into the city of Nahor], the word “Nahor” in Arabic means river. Mesopotamia is a Greek word meaning 'between the two rivers". The rivers are the Tigris and Euphrates which flow through modern Iraq. The Euphrates also flows through much of Syria also. In Numbers 22:5 the Euphrates River passes through Mesopotamia also. We do not know if the Syrian’s territory extended to Iraq during that era. Balaam is from Mesopotamia also, Deuteronomy 23:4. The children of Israel had battles with Balaam, God and Jesus hated Balaam, Jesus prophesied in John’s vision about the church of Pergamos of Babylon. The passage reads: [13 I know where thou dwell, where the seat of Satan is: and you hold fast my name and don’t deny my faith. Even in those days when Antipas was my faithful witness, who was slew among you, where Satan dwells. 14 but I have against thee a few things: because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balak = (Balach) = (Balac) to cast stumbling block before the children of Israel, to eat, and to commit fornication. 15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaites = (Nicolaitanes).16 in like manner do repent if not, I will come to thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth, Revelation 2:13 to16. Is it coincidence? No, it is not.

Prophet Nostradamus (verse 3:99) says; [the conflict will be very sharp for both armies, Mesopotamia will fail in France. It means Mesopotamia is a country’s name or army. Note ends]

42 The women also with cords about them, sit in the ways, burning olive stones.

43 And when any one of them, drawn away by some passenger, lieth with him, she upbraideth her neighbour, that she was not thought as worthy as herself, nor her cord broken.

44 But all things that are done about them, are false: how is it then to be thought, or to be said, that they are gods?

45 And they are made by workmen, and by goldsmiths. They shall be nothing else but what the priests will have them to be.

46 For the artificers themselves that make them, are of no long continuance. Can those things then that are made by them be gods?

47 But they have left false things and reproach to them that come after.

48 For when war cometh upon them, or evils, the priests consult with themselves where they may hide themselves with them.

49 How then can they be thought to be gods, that can neither deliver themselves from war, nor save themselves from evils?

50 For seeing they are but of wood, and laid over with gold, and with silver, it shall be known hereafter that they are false things, by all nations and kings: and it shall be manifest that they are no gods, but the work of men's hands, and that there is no work of God in them.

51 Whence therefore is it known that they are not gods, but the work of men's hands, and no work of God is in them?

52 They cannot set up a king over the land, nor give rain to men.

53 They determine no causes, nor deliver countries from oppression; because they can do nothing, and are as daws between heaven and earth.

54 For when fire shall fall upon the house of these gods of wood, and of silver, and of gold, their priests indeed will flee away, and be saved: but they themselves shall be burnt in the midst like beams.

55 And they cannot withstand a king and war. How then can it be supposed, or admitted that they are gods?

56 Neither are these gods of wood, and of stone, and laid over with gold, and with silver, able to deliver themselves from thieves or robbers: they that are stronger than them

57 Shall take from them the gold, and silver, and the raiment wherewith they are clothed, and shall go their way, neither shall they help themselves.

58 Therefore it is better to be a king that sheweth his power: or else a profitable vessel in the house, with which the owner thereof will be well satisfied: or a door in the house, to keep things safe that are therein, than such false gods.

59 The sun, and the moon, and the stars being bright, and sent forth for profitable uses, are obedient.

60 In like manner the lightning, when it breaketh forth, is easy to be seen: and after the same manner the wind bloweth in every country.

61 And the clouds when God commandeth them to go over the whole world, do that which is commanded them.

62 The fire also being sent from above to consume mountains and woods, doth as it is commanded. But these neither in shew, nor in power are like to any one of them.

63 Wherefore it is neither to be thought, nor to be said, that they are gods: since they are neither able to judge causes, nor to do any good to men.

64 Knowing therefore that they are not gods, fear them not.

65 For neither can they curse kings, nor bless them.

66 Neither do they shew signs in the heaven to the nations, nor shine as the sun, nor give light as the moon.

67 Beasts are better than they, which can fly under a covert, and help themselves.

68 Therefore there is no manner of appearance that they are gods: so fear them not.

69 For as a scarecrow in a garden of cucumbers keepeth nothing, so are their gods of wood, and of silver, and laid over with gold.

70 They are no better than a white thorn in a garden, upon which every bird sitteth. In like manner also their gods of wood, and laid over with gold, and with silver, are like to a dead body cast forth in the dark.

71 By the purple also and the scarlet which are motheaten upon them, you shall know that they are not gods. And they themselves at last are consumed, and shall be a reproach in the country.

72 Better therefore is the just man that hath no idols: for he shall be far from reproach.
