1 - Introduction:  

The Arabs have invented their own maps to prove the Midian land is in Saudi Arabia and God's mountain in Saudi Arabia also. However, the bible indicates the Midian land is in Sinai Desert. It is impossible that the Arabian Desert is called the Midian land. The Arabs are trying to twist history to have Midian background. Then, the Arabs claimed to be of Abraham, and then, they claimed to be of Ishmael. In reality, the Arabs are mixed race. The word Arab in Greek means mixture of people. The word Arab in Arabic means (sorted) or (put on the side) or (separate). The word Arab is arabah = steppe, wilderness; 'ereb = mixture of people, mixed race. Therefore, the word Arabia means desert before the mixed race = (Arabs) overwhelmed it.

 Moses did cross the Red Sea once, not two times. It means, Moses crossed the golf of Suez, not the Gulf of Agabah.

During Moses' era, Egypt was under Pharaoh, not the Arabs. Pharaoh wasn't an Arab. In modern days, the Arabs = muslims did invade Egypt looted its treasures and killed many and islamized the rest of the Egyptians. According to the above map, Sinai desert is in Egypt, not in Saudi Arabia. It is impossible to name an Egyptian an Arab because Arabia or the Arabian desert is in Saudi Arabia, not in Sinai Desert.

The Arabs are trying to twist history to have Midian background. Then, the Arabs claimed to be of Abraham, and then, they claimed to be of Ishmael. In reality, the Arabs are mixed race. The word Arab in Greek means mixture of people. The word Arab in Arabic means (sorted) or (put on the side) or (separate). The word Arab is arabah = steppe, wilderness; 'ereb = mixture of people, mixed race. Therefore, the word Arabia means desert before the mixed race = (Arabs) overwhelmed it.

If Abraham's third wife really existed, how could we prove she had two sons Madan = (Medan) and Madian = (Midian). And even if those children were Keturah = (Cetura)'s, how could we prove that Madan = (Medan) and Madian = (Midian) are Arabs. Even if we prove that they are, the moslems = (muslims) don't accept this theory because they believe they are Ishmael's descendents. If the Arabs believe that they are Ishmael's descendents, why they claim to be Midianite and the Midian's land is in Saudi Arabia. If the Midian land is in Saudi Arabia, WHY the people called it the Arabian Desert instead Midian? It means the Midian land is not in the Arabian Desert. And if the Arabs are Ishmael's descendents why the Arabs speaks Arabic instead Hebrews? And if the Arabs are Abraham's descendants through Ishmael, why the Arabs follow the koran = (quran) instead the Torah? The Midian's land is west of Agaba = (Agabah) Gulf, not east. Some maps indicate the wrong location of the Midian to claim the mountain of God where Moses spoke to God. In this conversion, the Arabs are trying to sanctify the land of Saudi Arabia. If the Midian's land is on the west side, where is the Arabian Desert supposed to be located? The Midian's land is north Sinai Desert. We can't name the Arabian Desert by the Midian's land. Therefore, they named the land of Arabia according to the Arabs race according to the Arabian mixed race. The Arabian land or the desert is not Midianites, Ishmaelite, and not Hebrews. There is no evidence in the bible to confirm that the land was named Arabian Desert before the mixed race = (Arabs) overwhelmed it.

In the above map, the green lines show the children of Israel crossing the Red Sea. Afterward, they passed by God's mountain Horeb in Sinai Desert, Exodus 3:1 to 2.

During the Arabs’ invasions to their neighboring countries, the people in the Middle East were forced to speak Arabic and to embrace Islam.

1:1 - Keturah's children: 

The passage reads: [1 And Abraham married another wife, named Cetura = (Keturah). 2 Who bore to him Zamran = (Zimran), and Jecsan = (Jokshan), and Madan = (Medan), and Madian = (Midian), and Jesboc = (Ishbak), and Sue = (Shuah) = (Shuah).3 Jecsan = (Jokshan) also begot Saba = (Sheba) and Dadan = (Dedan). The children of Dadan = (Dedan) were Assurim = (Asshurim), and Latusim = (Letushim) = (Latussim), and Loomin = (Leummim). 4 But of Madian = (Midian) was born Epha = (Ephah), and Opher = (Epher), and Henoch = (Henoc) = (Hanoch), and Abida = (Abidah), and Eldaa = (Eldaah): all these were the children of Cetura = (Keturah), 5 And Abraham gave all his possessions to Isaac. 6 And to the children of the concubines that he had, he gave gifts, and separated them from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, to the east country, Genesis 25:1 to 6.

The same passage is mentioned in the book of First Chronicles also. It reads: [32 and the sons of Cetura = (Keturah), Abraham's third wife, whom she bore: Zamran = (Zimran), Jecsan = (Jokshan), Madan = (Medan), Madian = (Midian), Jesboc = (Ishbak), and Sue = (Shuah). And the sons of Jecsan = (Jokshan), Saba = (Sheba), and Dadan = (Dedan). And the sons of Dadan = (Dedan): Assurim = (Asshurim), and Latusim = (Letushim) [= (Latussim)], and Laomin. 33 And the sons of Madian = (Midian): Epha = (Ephah), and Epher = (Opher), and Henoch = (Henoc) = (Hanoch), and Abida = (Abidah), and Eldaa = (Eldaah). All these are the sons of Cetura = (Keturah)], First Chronicles 1:32 to 33.

1:2 - The mountain of God

The above picture shows the map of the Midians' land east of Agaba = (Agabah), which is Saudi Arabia. However, the book of Exodus indicates that the Midians land is north of the wilderness of Sinai, Exodus 3:1 to 2, which contradicts this map. In reality, the Arabs are trying to twist history. Therefore, the Arabs = Muslims are claiming that the Midian land is in Saudi Arabia to pretend that the Mount of God is in Horeb in Saudi Arabia instead of Sinai Desert. It means this map is not accurate. There is a location in Saudi Arabia called Medina = (Almedina) = (Al - Madina) = (Elmedina) = (Madina) (El - Medina) = (Madina) = (Madina), which means "CITY". It is proven biblically  if this location was named (Al Madina) according to the Midian land. It is possible that the mixed race = (arabs) invaded the Midian’s land, which is between the two gulfs and expanded to the east of Agaba = (Agabah) during the Islamic invasions since the 666 AD till this day. The Red sea has two gulfs, one toward the East and another toward the west, which confused modern world to identify the actual place for Mount Sinai and the Midian's land. The Arabian people named it (Jabel Musa), which means the Mountain of Moses. Malachi prophesied in the name of God, said: Remember you the Law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel with the status and judgments. Behold I will send you Elijah = (Elias) the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the lord. Malachi 4:4 to 5 [Note: Malachi = (Malachias) = (Mal'akhi)]

There is a mountain in Saudi Arabia as it shows in the image east side of the Agaba = (Agabah) Gulf = (east side of the Red sea Gulf), called (Jabel Al Lawz). The image indicates the Midian land instead Saudi Arabia. The word "Jabel" is Arabic, which means mountain, and (El) means (the), and the word (Lawz) means (Almonds). The Arabs are trying to change history by claiming the mount of God in  Saudi Arabia. However, the bible confirms that the Midian land is north of Sinai Desert.

The following passage confirms the Midians land is near the mountain of God in Sinai Desert. If the Midian land is in Saudi Arabia, it means Moses had to walk few weeks to reach Sinai Desert. Moses drove the flock from the Midian land to the Sinai Desert, which is about few kilometers away. If we presume the mountain of God is in Saudi Arabia, Moses couldn't drive the flock of his father in law hundreds of kilometers to reach the mountain. Usually, the shepherd spend the day with the folks to feed them in the wilderness, not weeks. Therefore, this passage confirms that the Midian land is near Sinai Desert and it is between the two Gulfs, not in Saudi Arabia.

The passage reads: [1 now Moses fed the sheep of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Madian = (Midian): and he drove the flock to the inner parts of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, Horeb. 2 And the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he saw that the bush was on fire and was not burnt, Exodus 3:1 to 2.]

The purpose of changing history and twisting passages and fabricating stories is to claim that Moses spoke to God in Saudi Arabia, which confirms that Saudi Arabia is a holy land and Islam is holy religion. In reality, none of that is true, God spoke to Moses in Sinai desert, which is between the two gulfs, not in Saudi Arabia. Islam has nothing to do with Moses or with the Ten Commandments. The koran mention about Moses and many prophets of the Torah and Jesus' gospel but it doesn't confirm that the koran = (quran) is the word of God. The koran was copied from the modified Torah, therefore; we recognize the same violent in both books. Jesus' gospel is the only peaceful gospel. Jesus spoke peacefully about the Torah because the Torah that Jesus spoke of wasn't modified. For more information, refer to page "Ishmael and Isaac".

1:3 - Agaba = (Agabah) and Alkaaba of Saudi Arabia and the Midian

There is a location in Saudi Arabia called (Gaba) = (Al Gaba) = (Al Gabah) = (Al Kaaba) in Mecca where the moslems = (muslims) go to worship allah around the black cubic room, which is called Al Gaba. They named Al Gaba according to the Gulf of Agaba = (Agabah). The Al Medina = (city) in Saudi Arabia refers to populated area, which means "CITY". Biblically, the Midian’s land is located west of Agaba Gulf. The word Arab means arabah = steppe, wilderness; 'ereb = mixture of people, mixed race. The desert of Arabia was named in that name after the mixed race = (arabs) overwhelmed it. The mixed races invaded the Arabians Desert and overwhelmed the Midian's land where Moses landed after he fled from Egypt. The mixed race that invaded those lands is called Arabs, and the lands that they overwhelmed were named accordingly "Arabian". The Arabs are mixed race, African = (Ethiopians) mixed with white complexion races around that region. Therefore, the Arabs and the Asians have dark complexion.

The maps on the right show "modern and ancient" Egypt and the Gulf of Agaba = (Agabah). The east side of Agaba = (Agabah) is Saudi Arabia. Mount Sinai is in between the two gulfs. The "Ismailia" or "Al Ismailia" location refers to Ishmael, the firstborn of Abraham, where Ishmael's descendants dwelt. It confirms that the Ishmaelite didn't dwell in Saudi Arabia and aren't Arabs. The Ishmaelite lived north of Egypt toward the Mediterranean Sea and west of Israel.

Moses' marriage with a Midian woman confirms that the Midian weren't enemies with the Hebrews; unless the Midians became enemies after that marriage. It is possible; the Arabs overwhelmed that land after Moses' era. If the Arabs are named Arabs, how could we call them Midians or Hebrews? If the Arabian land is Modern Saudi Arabia, how could we name it "the Midian land"?

Biblically, one of Keturah's sons is Midian. There aren't biblical evidences to prove that when Moses left Egypt he landed in the Midians' land that belongs to one of Keturah's sons. According to the geographic modern map, the land of the Midian is in Egypt, and according to the ancient map, the Midian land is separate nation from Egypt. When Moses fled from Egypt, he had to stop at the nearest populated area to eat and to get rest. The book of Exodus tells us that Moses left Egypt without any companion. It means he was alone. Perhaps, Moses used a horse or camel for transportation, or probably walked in the desert when he fled from Egypt. In according for Moses to be in the land of the Midians, which indicates in the above map, Moses had to cross the Read Sea and the Gulf of Agaba = (Agabah). However, Moses didn't cross the Read Sea toward the Midians land, and didn’t walk around the gulfs of the Red Sea. Moses stopped at the Midian’s land between the two gulfs. Because the bible tells us that Moses reached the desert of Sinai when he was feeding the flock of his father in Law, where God spoke to him. This location is in modern Egypt’s territory. And it is not in Saudi Arabia.

[Note: Why there are peaceful and violent commandments in the Torah? For more information, refer to page "Ishmael and Isaac".]

Moses walked by the Red Sea shores and near Bitter Lake toward the north by the way of Shur or Palestine. However, Moses didn't reach Israel when he fled from Egypt. Moses' last stop was in the Midian land where he met his first wife, which he had to be at the nearest side to Israel, Exodus 2:15. During that era, the Midians land was between the wilderness of Shur and Zin. If Moses went to the Midians land east of Aqaba = (Aqabah), it means Moses was on the wrong track because the Promised Land that God promised to give to Abraham and his descendants is on the opposite direction. The book of Exodus 3:1 to 2 clearly explains that the priest of the Midians "Moses' father in Law" permitted Moses to live in his land, which is called the Midian land.

The book of Exodus confirms the Midian land is near the wilderness of Sinai. The mount of God "Horeb" is in Sinai. The book of Acts mentions about "mount Sinai in Arabia", Galatians 4:25.

This passage indicates that the wilderness of Sinai is in Arabia. However, the Torah tells us that Sinai is in the Promised Land territories. The word "Arabia" means "DESERT". Therefore, the book of Acts indicates that the mount of God is in Arabia. The book of Acts was written thousands years after that event; therefore, it is very difficult to identify this land thought the book of Acts. History tells us that the Midian land and Sinai desert were overwhelmed by the Arabs. The book of Acts was written around sixty AD, Sinai desert was invaded by barbaric Arabs. Sinai Desert doesn't mean Saudi Arabia. The mountain of God is located in Sinai Desert; it is between the two gulfs. Saudi Arabia is on the eastern side of the Gulf of Agaba = (Agabah). Sinai is in Modern Egypt, not in Saudi Arabia. We can't name Sinai Desert by Arabia because the Arabs overwhelmed it during mohamed's era.

Example:

Note about the Arabs, Iran and the Islamic republic = Islamic revolution of Iran

The word Arab in Arabic means "sorted" or "separate", which means sorted from others, or deserted.

 Therefore, the word Arabia means desert or Arabian Desert. It is possible that the invaders that invaded Arabia were named Arabians according to the land's name that they had overwhelmed. The Arabs are the inhabitant of Arabia, the word Arabia means desert. Even in the twentieth first century, the word "Arabia" is a description of a desert or a hot climate place.

The book of Acts indicates the mountain of God is located in Arabia.

The word Arabia doesn't mean Saudi Arabia, it means desert. The original word for "Saudi" is "Saud" which means in Arabic "black" "Saudi" means "black-y". The word "Saudi Arabia" means the "the blacks of Arabia", which means "the blacks of the desert". The Arabian people are mixed race, they are Africans black mixed with white complexion races around the African region.

The book of Acts was written around sixty AD, and the book of Exodus was written in few thousands years before the book of Acts. We can't rely on the book of Acts. The lands’ names change constantly. Invaders change the overwhelmed land according to their names and traditions, or the invaders are named according to the lands' name also.

The following passage (Ezekiel 27:10 to 21) confirms Arabia or the Arabians weren’t the Arabs of Syria Lebanon and Egypt during Moses’ era. If the Arabs are the inhabitants of Syria, Egypt, and Lebanon, it means Arabia isn't the location of the Arabs. Therefore, Paul said: the mountain of Sinai is in Arabia. The word Arabia means desert, not Saudi Arabia.

The passage reads: [3 And say to Tyre that dwelleth at the entry of the sea, being the mart of the people for many islands: Thus saith the Lord God: O Tyre, thou hast said: I am of perfect beauty,

4 And situate in the heart of the sea. Thy neighbours, that built thee, have perfected thy beauty:

5 With fir trees of Sanir they have built thee with all sea planks: they have taken cedars from Libanus = (Lebanon) to make thee masts.

6 They have cut thy oars out of the oaks of Basan: and they have made thee benches of Indian ivory and cabins with things brought from the islands of Italy.

7 Fine broidered linen from Egypt was woven for thy sail, to be spread on thy mast: blue and purple from the islands of Elisa, were made thy covering.

8 The inhabitants of Sidon = (Zidon), and the Aradians were thy rowers : thy wise men, O Tyre, were thy pilots.

[Note: in some translation the word "Aradians" is "Arvad".]

9 The ancients of Gebal, and the wise men thereof furnished mariners for the service of thy various furniture: all the ships of the sea, and their mariners were thy factors.

10 The Persians, and Lydians, and the Libyans = (Libya) were thy soldiers in thy army: they hung up the buckler and the helmet in thee for thy ornament. [Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)]

11 The men of Arad were with thy army upon thy walls round about: the Pygmeans also that were in thy towers, hung up their quivers on thy walls round about: they perfected thy beauty.

12 Tarshish was thy merchants supplied thy fairs with a multitude of all kinds of riches, with silver, iron, tin, and lead. They traded in thy fair.

13 Greece, Thubal = (Tubal) = (Kabul), and Mosoch = (Meshech), they were thy merchants: they brought to thy people slaves and vessels of brass. [Note: Tubal = (Thubal) = (Kabul) is modern Afghanistan]

14 From the house of Thogorma = (Togarmah) they brought horses, and horsemen, and mules to thy market.

15 The men of Dedan = (Dadan) were thy merchants: many islands were the traffic of thy hand, they exchanged for thy price teeth of ivory and ebony.

16 The Syrian was thy merchant: by reason of the multitude of thy works, they set forth precious stones, and purple, and broidered works, and fine linen, and silk, and chodchod in thy market.

17 Juda = (Judah) and the land of Israel, they were thy merchants with the best corn: they set forth balm, and honey, and oil, and rosin in thy fairs.

18 The men of Damascus were thy merchants in the multitude of thy works, in the multitude of divers riches, in rich wine, in wool of the best color.

19 Dan, and Greece, and Mosel have set forth in thy marts wrought iron: stacte, and calamus were in thy market.

20 The men of Dedan = (Dadan) were thy merchants in tapestry for seats.

21 Arabia, and all the princes of Cedar, they were the merchants of thy hand: thy merchants came to thee with lambs, and rants, and kids, Ezekiel 27:10 to 21.]

The following passages confirm that the mount of Horeb or the area of Horeb is in Sinai Desert where God spoke to Moses for the first time after he fled from Egypt and the second time when Moses was with the children of Israel after they had crossed the Red Sea. The mount of Horeb is where the children of Israel made the golden calf to worship while Moses waited forty days for God on the mountain. 

The passage reads: [1 now Moses fed the sheep of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Madian = (Midian): and he drove the flock to the inner parts of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, Horeb. 2 And the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he saw that the bush was on fire and was not burnt, Exodus 3:1 to 2.]

The passage reads: [19] they made a calf in Horeb and worshiped a molten image. [20] They exchanged the glory of God
for the image of an ox that eats grass. [21] They forgot God, their Savior, who had done great things in Egypt, [22] wondrous works in the land of Ham = (Cham), and terrible things by the Red Sea. [23] Therefore he said he would destroy them had not Moses, his chosen one, stood in the breach before him, to turn away his wrath from destroying them, Psalms 106:19 to 23.

The passage reads: 9 Now in the ark there was nothing else but the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the Lord made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt, First Kings 8:9.

This passage confuses modern people concerning Sinai's location. The Arabs that twisted history claimed the desert of Sinai is on the East side of Agaba = (Agabah) Gulf, which is in modern Saudi Arabia. In that location, the mountain is called "the mount of Al Lawz = (Jabel Al Lawz)", not the mount of God. If the Mount of God is in Saudi Arabia, why the Arabs name that mountain "the mount of Al Lawz = (Jabel Al Lawz) (Jebel Al Lawz)". The mount of God is Horeb, in Sinai west of Agaba Gulf. And because the mountain of Al Lawz or "Jabal Al Lawz" is in Saudi Arabia, it means the mountain of God is in Sinai in the Promised Land's territory. Sinai Desert at the present time "2007" is in modern Egypt.

The moslems = (muslims) want to change the name of "Al Lawz Mountain" or “Jabal Al Lawz” that is in Saudi Arabia to "the Mount of God". They are trying to twist history to claim God's appearance to Moses is in Saudi Arabia instead Sinai Desert in the Promised Land's territories. They are trying to sanctify the land of Saudi Arabia in this conversion

Moses approached the desert of Sinai and God spoke to him near "the mountain of Sinai" or "the mountain of Horeb", which the mountain of God.

If God spoke to Moses when he was leading the flocks of his father in law near the Midian’s lands, It means the Midians land is just north of Sinai, Exodus 3:1 to 2. For sure, the Arabs want to get this privilege, therefore they claimed God's mountain in Saudi Arabia. The Arabs want to link their unfamiliar race to Ishmael the son of Abraham. The Arabs are trying to change history to claim the right of heritage to the Holy Land Israel and to exclude the Hebrews Israelites off the geographic map. The koran = (quran) indicates, Abraham was "Hanafi" = (righteous), not Jew, not Christian, and not of the "Al – mushrekeen" = (polytheist) = (Trinitarian). In reality, Abraham was (Keldan-i) from the land of Chaldees = (Keldan) = (Chaldan) in Iraq, Genesis 11:31. Note: the word "Chaldees" means "Ala Aldine", which means in Arabic "the highest religion". It refers to a location in Babylon also. [Note: "Hanafi" = (righteous) it may refer to a group or organization, which is called Hanafi also.]

The name of God's chosen people is Jews = (Yahoud), God named them according to His name "Yahweh". The word "Yahoud" means God's people.

According to the koran = (quran), the Jews and the Christians are defiled and blasphemers. Therefore, the koran = (quran) name Abraham and Jacob (Hanafi), not Jews or Christians, (koran = (quran) of Islam - sourat al imran 3:67). Therefore, the koran = (quran) commands the moslem = (muslim) believers to kill the Jews and the Christians that don't surrender to the religion of Islam and to obey allah's and his prophet mohamed. According to the koran = (quran), the moslem = (muslim) must hate and kill the Jews and the Christians because of their unbelief to allah of Islam.

The koran = (quran) passage reads: Ibrahim = (Abraham) was not a Jew nor a Christian but he was (an) upright (man), a muslim, and he was not one of the polytheists = (Moushrekeen) = (Christians) = (Trinitarians), (koran = (quran) of Islam - sourat al imran 3:67)

The koran = (quran)'s passage reads: fight those who do not believe in allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what allah and his apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection., (koran = (quran) of Islam - sourat altawba 9:29).

Quran commands to kill the unbelievers, Allah says: [slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush, then if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, [Jizyah] leave their way free to them; surely allah is Forgiving, Merciful] Quran (sourat altawba 9:5)

[Note: the English translation says "fight", but in the original Arabic koran = (quran) it says "kill".]

According to the koran = (quran), Jerusalem, which the moslems = (muslims) name it in Arabic "Alkudus" = (the holy one) doesn't belong to the Jews and the Christians. The moslems = (muslims) claim the right of inheritance to the temple of God in Jerusalem and to the Promised Land. The koran = (quran) indicates that the Jews refused to enter the Promised Land because they were cowered; they asked Moses to go fight for them. For more information, refer to page "Islamic and bible verses" or page (koran = (quran) chapters).

The moslems = (muslims) believe to be the descendants of Ishmael without biblical, koran = (quran), and historic references.

The following passage confirms the Midians land is near mount Sinai. If the Midian land is in Saudi Arabia, it means Moses had to walk few weeks to reach Sinai Desert. Moses drove the flock from the Midian land to the Sinai Desert, which is few kilometers away. Moses couldn't drive the flock of his father in law hundreds of kilometers away from home. Therefore, this passage confirms that the Midian land is near Sinai Desert and it is between the two Gulfs.

The passage reads: [1 now Moses fed the sheep of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Madian = (Midian): and he drove the flock to the inner parts of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, Horeb. 2 And the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he saw that the bush was on fire and was not burnt, Exodus 3:1 to 2.]

However, this passage confused archeologists concerning Moses’ migrant and God's mountain. The moslems = (muslims) impose the world to believe that the Midian's land is in Saudi Arabia. However, history shows Sinai is in Egypt, which is in between the Gulf of Suez and the Gulf of Agaba. The Promised Land is from the Nile of Egypt to the source of Euphrates River, it means Sinai desert is included.

The green mark on the map shows the children of Israel's journey after they left Egypt.

The black mark shows the children of Israel's journey according to the Islamic theory. The moslems = (muslims) claim the mount of God Horeb is in Saudi Arabia instead in the Desert of Sinai in Modern Egypt. They claim Sinai desert and the mountain of God are in Saudi Arabia. They claim that the Israelites crossed the Gulf of Agaba = (Agabah) instead the Gulf of Suez. Both gulfs are part of the Red Sea. The moslems = (muslims) claim: God spoke to Moses in Saudi Arabia and the mount of God is "the mount of Al Lawz = (Jabel Al Lawz)" in Saudi Arabia.

The moslems = (muslims) are trying to twist history by claiming God's appearance to Moses in Saudi Arabia instead Sinai. The moslems = (muslims) are claiming the Promised Land also because the koran = (quran) says: the Jews were cowered, they didn't fight for the Promised Land, and they asked Moses and God to fight for them. The Arabs believe they are Ishmael's descendants without any biblical or koran = (quran)-ic evidences.

The koran = (quran) passage reads: [5.24] They said: O Musa = (Moses)! we shall never enter it so long as they are in it; go therefore you and your Lord, then fight you both surely we will here sit down.
[5.25] He said: My Lord! Surely I have no control (upon any) but my own self and my brother; therefore make a separation between us and the nation of transgressors.
[5.26] He said: So it = (promised Land) shall surely be forbidden to them for forty years, they shall wander about in the land, therefore do not grieve for the nation of transgressors, (koran = (quran) of Islam sourat almada 5:24 to 26).

The brown mark shows the children of Israel's journey according to some historians. They believe that the children of Israel didn't cross the Red Sea at all. They believe that the children of Israel passed through Sinai Desert and by the mount of God Herob. Then, they passed by the shore of the Gulf of Agaba = (Agabah) toward the north to the Jordan River.

The red mark shows the Israelites' journey according to other historians. They believe that the Israelites crossed small portion at the north end of the Gulf of Suez. They believe that their journey was on the Arabian way to the east north of Arabia. Then, they continued their journey toward the north to Jordan.

I did some modification on this map to show the actual land of Arabia.

Information about the Medes:

According to the bible, the Midian’s land is between the Gulf of Sure and the Gulf of Agaba = (Agabah). Those gulfs are part of the Red Sea. 

The word Medes is mentioned many times in the bible, this name refers to Persian = (Iran) or a nation, which is correlated with Iran. Example: (Med and Pharess) or (Medes and Persia). The word "Pharess" or "Phiris" in Arabic language means Persia = (Iran).

[Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)] [PHARES = (Phares) = (Phiris) = (Firiss) = (Persians) = (Iranians)]

The Iranians were in harmony with the Medes. Are the Medes Arabs? Some maps indicate the land of Midians is in Saudi Arabia. The city, which is called (Madina) = (Al Midina) in Saudi Arabia. However, does the name (Madina) = (Al Midina) confirms the location of the Midian? It is not reliable information. Iran is the neighboring country to the Arabs of Saudi Arabia. Iran is located on the eastern north side of Saudi Arabia; the Gulf of Persia is in between. However, the Iranian shae = (shiites) moslems = (muslims) are not in harmony with the Saudi Arabia sene = (sunnis) moslems = (muslims). Nevertheless, the Iranian shae = (shiites) moslems = (muslims) are established successfully with the Syrian moslem = (muslim) Alewe for the past century. They were in one accord during Moses’ era also; they were together in Tyre “in modern Lebanon”. In reality, Syria and Iran are considered terrorists nations in the twentieth first century. Geographically, Syria is on the western side of Iran, which helps them to be in one accord to invade other nations. We don't know if the Saudi Arabian sene = (sunnis) moslems = (muslims) will be associated with Iran in the future. This future association will depend on the moslems = (muslims)’ Kalifa = (Caliphate) that the moslem = (muslim) world is waiting for to appear to Islamize the entire world. The word "kalifat" means the descendant or the Islamic ruler after mohamed. The moslems = (muslims) Kalifas were many; however, the moslems = (muslims) are waiting for the Kalifa of mohamed in the twentieth first century. They believe this Kalifa shall have the same goal of mohamed and shall be mohamed’s reincarnate

The book of Revelation chapter 13 indicates about the appearance of a beast "religious leader", the total number of his name or his symbol is (666). This religious leader or the beast shall massacre the Christians and the Jews in Jerusalem "including Lebanon". [Lebanon is in the Promised Land.] The Promised Land’s territory is from the Nile to the Euphrates River. The persecution of the Jews and the Christians shall extend worldwide. Then, the Messiah Jesus shall appear to stop these massacres and the nuclear World War III.

Almadina city and Al Kaaba are in Mecca of Saudi Arabia 

Madina is in Saudi Arabia. The word "Madina" in Arabic means "city". I don't think Almadina was named according to the Midian land. The Arabs named the city "Almadina" in Saudi Arabia because it was the only city in that deserted area. 

The mount of God "Horeb" is in Sinai Desert in Modern Egypt. It means the Arabian Desert existed, which confirms that the Arabs are from the Arabian Desert and the Midians from the Midian's land. If the Arabian Desert and the Midian's land existed in the same era, we can't call the Arabs Midian. The Midians are the Midianites and the Arabs are Arabs. The Midianites aren’t Arabs. If the mixed race that dwell in Saudi Arabia is named Arabs according to the name of the Arabian Desert, why some historians name the Arabs Midians?

The worshipping place Al gabah = (Al Kaba) in Mecca in Saudi Arabia. The Gulf of Agaba = (Agabah) was named according to Al Kaba worshipping place of Islam. As you see in the picture, this place is a black square room.

The Al Kaba is a black square room. The worshippers turn around the Al Kaba during worshipping. There is a black stone in that room, which is exposed through a small oval opening to the outside worshippers. The moslems = (muslims) believe that Abraham placed that stone in that location. The moslems = (muslims) worship around the black room and they must kiss and touch the black stone while they are worshipping.

During pilgrim to Mecca, the moslem = (muslim) worshippers must turn around the black room and must kiss and touch the black stone. The worshippers must throw stones at the devil in Jamra's = (Amra’s) near Kaba = (Caaba).

We don't know why this room is covered with black covering. They probably black covered the square room according to the black stone that is in the oval frame. We don't know the accurate story about the black stone and the black cover. It is not unusual process, the Christians worship statues made out of stones also. God is omnipresent; He could be worshipped at any place. God's commands His people to worship Him only. God warned His people NOT to worship idols, images, or stones.

Where is the Gabaa?

Gabaa is in Israel where they kept the Ark of the Covenant.

The passage reads: 1 And then, the men of Cariathiarim = (Kirjathjearim) came and fetched up the ark of the Lord and carried it into the house of Abinadab in Gabaa = (Gibeah): and they sanctified Eleazar his son, to keep the ark of the Lord.

2 And it came to pass, that from the day the ark of the Lord abode in Cariathiarim = (Cariath - Iarim) or (Cariat - Hiarim), days were multiplied, the Ark remained there for twenty years, and all the house of Israel rested following the Lord, First Samuel 7:1 to 2.

What is the correlation between Al Gaba = (Al Kaba) of Saudi Arabia with Gabaa in Israel where they kept the Ark of the Covenant.

For more information about Al kaba = (Al Gabaa) and the Ark of the Covenant, refer to page "Giants", and page "Ark of the Covenant".

The word “Arabian Desert” and “the Midian land” refer to two different locations and two different nations. It is possible that the Arabs that dwell in the Arabian Desert overwhelmed the Midian land that is located west of the Gulf of Agaba = (Gabah).

---------------------------------

The Midian land is north of Sinai Desert, not in Saudi Arabia.

According to Exodus 3:1 to 2; Moses was in the Midian land he drove the flock inner the desert till the mount of Horeb. It confirms that the mount of God is near the Midian land where Moses landed and took his first wife from. In according for Moses to reach Saudi Arabia, he had to cross the Sea or he had to make a long journey around the two gulfs. Moses fled from Egypt, and he couldn't have reached Saudi Arabia on the east side of Agaba; he had to stop at the nearest place to get rest and waters.

The passage reads: Now Moses fed the sheep of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Madian = (Midian): and he drove the flock to the inner parts of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, Horeb. 2 And the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he saw that the bush was on fire and was not burnt, Exodus 3:1 to 2.

The Midian's land is near God's Mountain in Sinai Desert. It confirms that the Midian's land is west of Agaba = (Agabah) Gulf. Nevertheless, some mixed race invaded and overwhelmed the Midian land, which expanded toward the east and the west of Agaba = (Agabah).

It happened after Moses' Era. In Arabic language, the word Arab means “sorted”. The word Arab is arabah = steppe, wilderness; 'ereb = mixture of people, mixed race. The book of Acts named that land "Arabia", however, the book of Acts was written around 50 AD, and Moses existed around 1500 BC. If the Midians were the actual Arabs, which are the Hebrews' enemies, Moses wouldn't take his wife from them. It means the Midians of Saudi Arabia weren't located in that land during Moses' era. Keturah's sons are Madan = (Medan), and Madian = (Midian). It is possible that the land of the Midian was overwhelmed by the Arabs after Moses' era.

The book of Daniel prophesied about Medes and the Persian of Iran invading the Holy Land Jerusalem and killing God's people, the Jews and the Christians, Daniel 5:26 to 28. The word "Medes" is not spelled in the same way as "Midian", however it approaches to the name Medan, Keturah's son also. However, the name Medan has no biblical history. According to the prophecy of Daniel, the Iranians are in harmony with the Medes. Who are the Medes? Are the Medes Midian? Daniel interpreted the dream: the Medes shall take the kingdom. It is possible that the word "Medes" is plural of Midian in Daniel 5:26, and the Median king Darius in Daniel 5: 26 to 31 took the kingdom.

[Note: the word “Media” may refer to “Midian” or “Medes”]

The following passage explains the correlation between the Medes and Iran. It reads: 19 and he said to me: I will shew thee what things are to come to pass in the end of the malediction: for the time hath its end. 20 The ram, which thou saw with horns, is the king of the Medes and Persians = (Persia) = (Iran) 21 And the he goat, is the king of the Greek = (Grecia) = (Greece), and the great horn that was between his eyes, the same is the first king. 22 But whereas when that was broken, there arose up four for it: four kings shall rise up of his nation, but not with his strength, Daniel 8:19 to 22.

This passage indicates: the Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) is of the Medes’ offspring. It reads:  In the first year of Darius the son of Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) of the seed of the Medes, who reigned over the kingdom of the Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) = (the kingdom of Babylon), Daniel 9:1.

[Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)]

This passage confirms the correlation between Iran = (Persian) and its King Darius, the son of Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) of the Medes offspring. During Cyrus king, the Persians confirm that the Medes are in accord with the Hebrews during that era.

The passage reads: [1 Now the enemies of Juda = (Judah) and Benjamin heard that the children of the captivity were building a temple to the Lord the God of Israel. 2 And they came to Zorobabel, and the chief of the fathers, and said to them: Let us build with you, for we seek your God as ye do: behold we have sacrificed to him, since the days of Asor Haddan king of Assyria, who brought us hither. 3 But Zorobabel, and Josue = (Joshua), and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel said to them: You have nothing to do with us to build a house to our God, but we ourselves alone will build to the Lord our God, as Cyrus king of the Persians hath commanded us. 4 Then the people of the land hindered the hands of the people of Juda = (Judah), and troubled them in building. 5 And they hired counselors against them, to frustrate their design all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of the Persians. 6 And in the reign of Assuerus = (Ahasuerus), in the beginning of his reign, they wrote an accusation against the inhabitants of Juda = (Judah) and Jerusalem. 7 And in the days of Artaxerxes, Beselam, Mithridates, and Thabeel, and the rest that were in the council wrote to Artaxerxes king of the Persians : and the letter of accusation was written in Syriac, and was read in the Syrian tongue, Ezra 4:1 to 7.]

Zorobabel, and Josue = (Joshua), and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel troubled the house of Judah to rebuild the house of the lord God. It confirms the division between the house of Judah and the northern kingdom of Israel. The enemies of the house of Judah troubled Zorobabel, and Josue = (Joshua), and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel to rebuild the house of the Lord God.

The prophet Nostradamus prophesied about the Media. [Note: the word Media may refer to the Midian or Medes.]

It reads: The chief of Persia will occupy great "Olchades," The trireme fleet against the Mahometan = (mohamed's) people From Parthia and Media]: and the Cyclades pillaged: Long rest at the great Ionian port, Quatrain 3,64]

[Note: the word "Mahometan" means "mohammed” "mohamed" the word (Parthia) means (Persia) = (Iran), and the word Midian refers to people who dwell in the Midian land north of Sinai Desert. The word Media refers to Medes and Persia, ort Persia and Medes. The word Medes refer to people that are always with Iran = (Persia). Nostradamus meant the Islamic people from Persia = (Iran) and Midia = (Medes). The word Medes is not identified biblically]” [Note: Persian/s = (Persia) = (Iran) = (Iranians)]

This passage confirms the correlation of the Islamic religion with the Medes, Iran, and Armenia.

Nostradamus prophesied again about the Midia =Medes, it reads:  [On the field of Media), of Arabia and of Armenia Two great armies will assemble thrice: The host near the bank of the Araxes, They will fall in the land of the great Suleiman, Quatrain 3, 31.] [Note: the word Media may refer to the Midian or the Medes]

It means Armenia, Arabia Medes, and Iran will gather in great army to attack other nations. It is true; Armenia is near Iran, which is correlated politically and economically with these two nations. We can't depend on the Armenian people. Example: in Sept 2007, the "Toshnak" Armenians in Lebanon gathered with the Syrians and the Iranians to vote against the Christians and democracy. Nostradamus was right about the Armenians. During the prophet Ezekiel's era, Armenia is known as part of Meshech = (Moscow) and Tubal = (Kabul in Afghanistan) and Togarmah, Ezekiel 38:1 to 32, Ezekiel 39:1 to 29. Ezekiel prophesied about those nations including Libya = (Middle East) and Ethiopia = (Africa). These nations will gather to attack the Jews and the Christians in Lebanon and in Israel. However, I find it abnormal for the Christian Armenians gathered with the moslems = (muslims) against the Christians Catholic. The Armenians have to delight their Iranian neighbors, Turkey, and Russia before pleasing God and Jesus Christ. It happened already during elections in Lebanon by the Tashnak orthodox Armenians organization.

1:4 - The Medes and Arabs

The word Midian first mentioned in the book of Genesis. The word Midian is spelled "Madian". It refers to the son of Keturah the third wife of Abraham, Genesis 25:1 to 6.

The word "Mede" in some translations is "Median", Daniel 5:30 to 31. It is possible that the word "Medes" is the plural of "Mede" and "Median". We don't have sufficient evidence to prove if the word "Median" refer to "Midian" or to Medes. The word Midian is mentioned in the book of Exodus 2:15 also, it is where Moses met his first wife in the Midian land. If the word Median refers to the Midian, it means Moses got married with a woman from his enemies. There are passages in the bible where it indicates that the Midians are the Hebrews' enemies and in other passages, they aren't. However, for sure the Arabs aren't Midians.

The following passage confirms that the Medes are not Arabians during 33 AD. It confirms that the Egyptians and the Libyans aren't Arabians also. This event happened after Jesus' resurrection in fifty days. Therefore, the name Arabians is mentioned separately. The passage reads: [9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and inhabitants of Mesopotamia, Judea, and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, 10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, 11 Jews also, and proselytes, Cretes, and Arabians: we have heard them speak in our own tongues the wonderful works of God, Acts 2:9 to 11.

The following passage confirms that the Babylon kingdom was from Ethiopia to Syria and even to India, read Ester 1, and Esther 2:5 to 6 in the following text. The passage reads: [26 And Nabuzardan = (Nebuzaradan) the army's general took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon, to Reblatha. 27 And the king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death in Reblatha, in the land of Emath = (Hamath) = (Hama): and the inhabitants of Juda = (Judah) were carried away captive out of their land, Jeremiah 52:26 to 27.] It means Hamath was in Babylon, and modern Hamath is in modern Syria.

The following passage confirms that the Medes are not Arabs; therefore, the name Arabia is mentioned separately. It reads: [24 And all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the west, that dwell in the desert. 25 And all the kings of Zambri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of Medes, Jeremiah 25:24 to 25.]

[10 The Lord hath brought forth our justices: Come, and let us declare in Sion = (Zion) the work of the Lord our God. 11 Sharpen the arrows, fill the quivers, the Lord hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: and his mind is against Babylon to destroy it, because it is the vengeance of the Lord, the vengeance of his temple. 12 Upon the walls of Babylon set up the standard, strengthen the watch: set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the Lord hath both purposed, and done all that he spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon, Jeremiah 51:10 to 12.]

in Jeremiah's passages, the king of the Medes is against Babylon to destroy it and to revenge for the Lord's temple. It means that the Medes overwhelmed Babylon, and it confirms that the Medes aren't Babylonians. It confirms that the Medes are not Iranians. The following text confirms that the Iranians = (Persians) = (Iranians) are united with the Medes. [28 Prepare the nations against her, the kings of Medes, their captains, and all their rulers, and all the land of their dominion. 29 And the land shall be in a commotion, and shall be troubled: for the design of the Lord against Babylon shall awake, to make the land of Babylon desert and uninhabitable, Jeremiah 51:28 to 29.

In this passage, the Hebrews were captive in Hala and Habor in the city of Medes. [6 And in the ninth year of Osee = (Hosea), the king of the Assyrians took Samaria, and carried Israel away to Assyria: and he placed them in Hala and Habor by the river of Gozan, in the cities of the Medes. 7 For so it was that the children of Israel had sinned against the Lord their God, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharao = (Pharaoh) king of Egypt, and they worshipped strange gods, Second Kings 17:6 to 7.]

In this passage the Medes are destroying Babylon. [17 1 Behold I will stir up the Medes against them, who shall not seek silver, nor desire gold: 18 But with their arrows they shall kill the children, and shall have no pity upon the suckling of the womb, and their eye shall not spare their sons. 19 And that Babylon, glorious among kingdoms, the famous pride of the Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans), shall be even as the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrha = (Gomorrah), Isaiah 13:17 to 19.]

The city of Medes is called Rages.[16 and when he was come to Rages a city of the Medes, and had ten talents of silver of that with which he had been honored by the king, Tobia 1:16.]

This passage tells us that the city of Medes is on the mount of Ecbataan. [But he answered: Of the children of Israel. And Tobias said to him: Knowest thou the way that leadeth to the country of the Medes? 8 And he answered: I know it: and I have often walked through all the ways thereof, and I have abode with Gabelus our brother, who dwelleth at Rages a city of the Medes, which is situate in the mount of Ecbatana, Tobia 5:7 to 8.]

This passage tells us that the city of Medes is not too far from the river of Tigris in verse 1. [6 And when he had done so, he roasted the flesh thereof, and they took it with them in the way: the rest they salted as much as might serve them, till they came to Rages the city of the Medes, Tobia 6:6.]

In this passage, the city of Medes is called Rages. [3 However, I beseech thee, to take with thee beasts and servants, and to go to Gabelus to Rages the city of the Medes: and to restore to him his note of hand, and receive of him the money, and desire him to come to my wedding, Tobia 9:3.]

The law of Persia and Medes can't be violated; it means that Medes and Persia are in one accord as one kingdom. [12 And they came and spoke to the king concerning the edict: O king, hast thou not decreed, that every man that should make a request to any of the gods, or men, for thirty days, but to thyself, O king, should be cast into the den of the lions? And the king answered them, saying: The word is true according to the decree of the Medes and Persians, which it is not lawful to violate, Daniel 6:12.]

The angel interpreted the vision to Daniel concerning Medes and Persia. [19 And he said to me: I will shew thee what things are to come to pass in the end of the malediction: for the time hath its end. 20 The ram, which thou sawest with horns, is the king of the Medes and Persians = (Persia) = (Iran) 21 And the he goat, is the king of the Greek= (Grecia) = (Greece), and the great horn that was between his eyes, the same is the first king. 22 But whereas when that was broken, there arose up four for it: four kings shall rise up of his nation, but not with his strength, Daniel 8:19 to 22.]

Assuerus is of the Medes.[1 In the first year of Darius the son of Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) of the seed of the Medes, who reigned over the kingdom of the Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans), Daniel 9:1.]

[Note: the word “Media” may refer to “Midian” or “Medes”]

King Darius is the king of Medes and Persia. [1 Now it came to pass, after that Alexander the son of Philip the Macedonian, who first reigned in Greece, coming out of the land of Cethim, had overthrown Darius king of the Persians and Medes, First Mechabees 1:1.]

This passage confirms that Persia and Medes are neighbors and as one kingdom. [56 Was returned from Persia and Medes, with the army that went with him, and that he sought to take upon him the affairs of the kingdom, First Mechabees 6:56.]

In verse 1 to 5 of the same chapter, Judah went to the Roman to make deal with them, however, the Romans told him what they did with the king of Asia and how they took of him India and Medes and Lydians and they gave them to Eumenes. In this passage, Persia is not mentioned with the Medes. [6 And how Antiochus the great king of Asia, who went to fight against them, having a hundred and twenty elephants, with horsemen, and chariots, and a very great army, was routed by them: 7 And how they took him alive, and appointed to him, that both he and they that should reign after him, should pay a great tribute, and that he should give hostages, and that which was agreed upon, 8 And the country of the Indians, and of the Medes, and of the Lydians, some of their best provinces: and those which they had taken from them they gave to king Eumenes. 9 And that they who were in Greece had a mind to go and to destroy them: and they had knowledge thereof, First Mechabees 8:6 to 9.]

[Note: the word “Media” may refer to “Midian” or “Medes”]

[1 In the year one hundred and seventy-two, king Demetrius assembled his army, and went into Media to get him succours to fight against Tryphon. 2 And Arsaces the king of Persia and Media heard that Demetrius was entered within his borders, and he sent one of his princes to take him alive, and bring him to him, First Mechabees 14:1 to 2.]

The following passage explains that during king of Persia Ahasuerus, the kingdom of Persia was from India to Ethiopia. It means that part of Asia from India toward the west and toward the south till Africa, including the Middle East was under the Persian kingdom. Iraq is included. [1 In the days of Assuerus = (Ahasuerus), who reigned from India to Ethiopia over a hundred and twenty-seven provinces: 2 When he sat on the throne of his kingdom, the city Susan was the capital of his kingdom. 3 Now in the third year of his reign he made a great feast for all the princes, and for his servants, for the most mighty of the Persians, and the nobles of the Medes, and the governors of the provinces in his sight, Esther 1:1 to 3.]

[Note: the word “Media” may refer to “Midian” or “Medes”]

This passage confirms that Persia and Medes were ruled by seven princes. And it proves that the Medes and Persia are part of the king's kingdom. [13 Baked the wise men, who according to the custom of the kings, were always near his person, and all he did was by their counsel, who knew the laws, and judgments of their forefathers: 14 (Now the chief and nearest him were, Charsena, and Sethar, and Admatha, and Tharsis = (Tarshish), and Mares, and Marsana, and Mamuchan, seven princes of the Persians, and of the Medes, who saw the face of the king, and were used to sit first after him :) 15 What sentence ought to pass upon Vasthi the queen, who had refused to obey the commandment of king Assuerus = (Ahasuerus), which he had sent to her by the eunuchs, Esther 1:13 to 15.]

[Note: the word “Media” may refer to “Midian” or “Medes”]

It means that the city of Susan is in Babylon, where the Jews were exiled. The passage reads: [5 There was a Jewish man in the city of Susan, named Mardochai, the son of Jair, the son of Semei = (Shimei), the son of Cis = (Kish), of the race of Jemini = (Benjamite) = (Benjamin), 6 Who had been from those that were scattered away from Jerusalem with Jechonias king of Juda = (Judah), at the time that Nabuchodonosor = (Nebuchadrezzar) = (Nebuchadnezzar) king of Babylon, Esther 2:5 to 6.]

Geographically, the above passages confirm the good correlation between the orthodox Jews and the Iranians of Persia. The Jews were exiled to Babylon that was ruled by Persia. The Babylonians were receiving orders from Persia. During the Jewish captivity in Babylon in 586 BC, the King Darius helped the Jews to return to Jerusalem and to rebuild God's temple. The bible mentions about few kinds of Midians during that era, Medes, Midian, and Median. The Midian land is where Moses took his first wife from, which was located north of the Red Sea between the two gulfs, and north of the Sinai Desert. Biblically, the Medes are always mentioned with the Persian = (Iranians). The Medes are not identified geographically. The Media are not recognized biblically. The Arabs are trying to twist history by claiming the Midian land in Saudi Arabia. The Arabs are trying to prove they are Midian and Moses was in Saudi Arabia instead Sinai Desert in modern Egypt. In this conversion, the Arabs are inventing a myth to sanctify Saudi Arabia by claiming God's mountain is in Saudi Arabia instead Sinai Desert. There is no biblical evidence to prove the Medes are Midians. Geographically the Midians are too far from Persia. Biblically, the Medes are always mentioned with Persia.

This passage confirms that the capital of the kingdom of king Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) is Susan. This kingdom is from India to Ethiopia, which include the Medes and Persia. The passage reads: [1 In the days of Assuerus = (Ahasuerus), who reigned from India to Ethiopia over a hundred and twenty-seven provinces: 2 When he sat on the throne of his kingdom, the city Susan was the capital of his kingdom. 3 Now in the third year of his reign he made a great feast for all the princes, and for his servants, for the most mighty of the Persians, and the nobles of the Medes, and the governors of the provinces in his sight, Esther 1:1 to 3.]

[Note: the word “Media” may refer to “Midian” or “Medes”]

This passage indicates that the king Assuerus was in harmony with the Jews. In some generations, the Medes were very friendly with the Jews. The passage reads: [1 And king Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) made all the land, and all the islands of the sea tributary. 2 And his strength and his empire, and the dignity and greatness wherewith he exalted Mardochai, are written in the book of the Machabees for the Medes, and of the Persians: 3 And how the second Mardochai next after king Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) was great among the Jews, and acceptable to the people of his brethren, seeking the good of his people, and speaking those things which were for the welfare of his seed, Esther 10:1 to 3.]

[Note: the word “Media” may refer to “Midian” or “Medes”]

The passage reads: [In the thirteenth year of the reign of Nabuchodonosor = (Nebuchadrezzar) = (Nebuchadnezzar) who was king of the Assyrians in the great city of  the Ninive = (nineveh). Now Arphaxad king of the Medes had brought many nations under his dominions, and he built a very strong city, which he called Ecbatana = (Ahmatah), Judith 1:1.]

The passage reads: [5 Now in the twelfth year of his reign, Nabuchodonosor = (Nebuchadrezzar) = (Nebuchadnezzar) king of the Assyrians, who reigned in Ninive = (nineveh) the great city, fought against Arphaxad and overcame him, Judith 1:5.]

1:5 - References about Persia = (Persian) = (Iran) in the bible

[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 a Persian [strange tongue].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, Baruch 4:14 to 16.] [Note: the Arabic version of the bible society of Lebanon the word "strange tongue" is "Persian.]

[33 And when this matter became public, it was told to the king of Persia, that in the place where the priests that were led away, had hid the fire, there appeared water, with which Nehemias and they that were with him had purified the sacrifices. [Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)]34 And the king considering, and diligently examining the matter, made a temple for it, that he might prove what had happened. 35 And when he had proved it, he gave the priests many goods, and divers presents, and he took end distributed them to them with his own hand. 36 And Nehemias called this place Nephthar, which is interpreted purification. But many call it Nephi, Second Machabees 1:33 to 36.] During that era, the king of Persia was in harmony with the Jews.

1:6 - The Iranians soldiers were in the Armies of Tyre in modern Lebanon before Christ.

The following text explains the correlation between Tyre and the Persian = (Iranian) army. It explains: Syria is not related with Damascus, and the Arabs of Arabia are not related to Egypt, Syria, and Damascus. The Iranians soldiers were in the Army of Tyre. Meshech = (Moscow) and Tubal (Kabul of Afghanistan) brought slaves to Tyre. Tyre kept its barbarians character even in the twentieth first century. The Iranians shae = (shiites) moslems = (muslims) remained in Sidon and Tyre. When Lebanon became independent country in November 22 1943, the Iranians = (Persia), which are the shae = (shiites) moslems = (muslims) achieved to obtain senators and ministers in the Lebanese parliaments. The shae = (shiites) moslems = (muslims) were the minorities in Lebanon, but they had and still have shares in the governments. The president of the Lebanese senators is shae = (shiites) moslems = (muslims), and the president of the ministers of the Lebanese government is moslem = (muslim) sene = (sunnis), and the president of Lebanon is Catholic because the Catholic Christians were and still the majorities. Syria didn't have part in this plan, however, Syria was and still terrorizing Lebanon to overcome it and to establish the great Syria. During the 1975 Lebanese civil war, which was prepared by the Iranians and the Syrians, half million Iranians shae = (shiites) moslems = (muslims) and the Syrians Alewe moslems = (muslims) interred into Lebanon illegally. In 2007, these illegal immigrants became one million and half and probably two millions in 2007. These illegal immigrants don't have Lebanese citizenships. They started the war to mingle those people to Lebanon to descend the Lebanese democratic government during elections. Therefore, the war never ended in Lebanon. Any democratic minister or a senator issue a refusal statement to legalize those illegal immigrants will be assassinated. Therefore, hundreds of prime ministers, senators and presidents were assassinated for that refusal. This conspiracy is part of the terrorists that are terrorizing democracy worldwide. Iran and Syria are behind these terrorisms. Tubal = (Kabul of Afghanistan), and Asia in general are supporting the terrorists. Meshech = (Moscow) is the leader and the sponsor of these mentioned countries to destroy America and democracy. Those terrorist countries are accepting the Russian's helps as well to destroy America and democracy in the Islamic world in order to force the Islamic countries into unification to establish an Islamic state.

The prophet Ezekiel spoke about these nations in Ezekiel 38:1 to 6, and Ezekiel 39:1.

 Ezekiel’s prophecies:

The passage reads: [3 And say to Tyre that dwells at the entry of the sea, being the mart of the people for many islands: Thus saith the Lord God: O Tyre, thou hast said: I am of perfect beauty,

4 And situate in the heart of the sea. Thy neighbors, that built thee, have perfected thy beauty:

5 With fir trees of Sanir they have built thee with all sea planks: they have taken cedars from Libanus = (Lebanon) to make thee masts.

6 They have cut thy oars out of the oaks of Basan: and they have made thee benches of Indian ivory and cabins with things brought from the islands of Italy.

7 Fine broidered linen from Egypt was woven for thy sail, to be spread on thy mast: blue and purple from the islands of Elisa, were made thy covering.

8 The inhabitants of Sidon = (Zidon), and the Aradians were thy rowers : thy wise men, O Tyre, were thy pilots.

[Note: in some translation the word "Aradians" is "Arvad".]

9 The ancients of Gebal, and the wise men thereof furnished mariners for the service of thy various furniture: all the ships of the sea, and their mariners were thy factors.

10 The Persians, and Lydians, and the Libyans = (Libya) were thy soldiers in thy army: they hung up the buckler and the helmet in thee for thy ornament. [Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)]

11 The men of Arad were with thy army upon thy walls round about: the Pygmeans also that were in thy towers, hung up their quivers on thy walls round about: they perfected thy beauty.

12 Tarshish was thy merchants supplied thy fairs with a multitude of all kinds of riches, with silver, iron, tin, and lead. They traded in thy fair.

13 Greece, Thubal = (Tubal) = (Kabul), and Mosoch = (Meshech), they were thy merchants: they brought to thy people slaves and vessels of brass. [Note: Tubal = (Thubal) = (Kabul) is modern Afghanistan]

14 From the house of Thogorma = (Togarmah) they brought horses, and horsemen, and mules to thy market.

15 The men of Dedan = (Dadan) were thy merchants: many islands were the traffic of thy hand, they exchanged for thy price teeth of ivory and ebony.

16 The Syrian was thy merchant: by reason of the multitude of thy works, they set forth precious stones, and purple, and broidered works, and fine linen, and silk, and chodchod in thy market.

17 Juda = (Judah) and the land of Israel, they were thy merchants with the best corn: they set forth balm, and honey, and oil, and rosin in thy fairs.

18 The men of Damascus were thy merchants in the multitude of thy works, in the multitude of divers riches, in rich wine, in wool of the best color.

19 Dan, and Greece, and Mosel have set forth in thy marts wrought iron: stacte, and calamus were in thy market.

20 The men of Dedan = (Dadan) were thy merchants in tapestry for seats.

21 Arabia, and all the princes of Cedar, they were the merchants of thy hand: thy merchants came to thee with lambs, and rants, and kids, Ezekiel 27:10 to 21.]

The above passage (Ezekiel 27:10 to 21) confirms Arabia or the Arabians weren’t part of Syria Lebanon and Egypt during Moses’ era.

The passage reads: [1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: 2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Mosoch = (Meshech) and Thubal = (Tubal) = (Kabul): and prophesy of him, [Note: Tubal = (Thubal) = (Kabul) is modern Afghanistan, and Meshech is Moscow in Russia] 3 And say to him: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I come against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Mosoch = (Meshech) and Thubal = (Tubal). 4 And I will turn thee about, and I will put a bit in thy jaws: and I will bring thee forth, and ail thy army, horses and horsemen all clothed with coats of mail, a great multitude, armed with spears and shields and swords. 5 The Persians = (Persia), Ethiopians = (Ethiopian), and Libyans = (Libya) with them, all with shields and helmets. [Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)] 6 Gomer, and all his bands, the house of Thogorma = (Togarmah), the northern parts and all his strength, and many peoples with thee, Ezekiel 38:1 to 6.]

The passage reads: [1 And thou, son of man, prophesy against Cog = (Gog), and say: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I come against thee, O Cog = (Gog), the chief prince of Mosoch = (Meshech) and Thubal = (Tubal). 2 And I will turn thee round, and I will lead thee out, and will make thee go up from the northern parts: and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel. 3 And I will break thy bow in thy left hand, and I will cause thy arrows to fall out of thy right hand, Ezekiel 39:1 to 3.] [Note: Tubal = (Thubal) = (Kabul) is modern Afghanistan, and Meshech is Moscow in Russia]

1:7 - Who is on God's side, and who rebuilt the house of the Lord God, the Orthodox Jews, which are the house of Judah or the Zionists?

The passage reads: [In the first year of Cyrus king of the Persians, that the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias = (Jeremiah)  might be fulfilled, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of the Persians: and he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and in writing also, saying: 2 Thus saith Cyrus king of the Persians: The Lord the God of heaven hath given to me all the kingdoms of the earth, and he hath charged me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judea, Ezra 1:1 to 2.]

[8 Now Cyrus king of Persia brought them forth by the hand of Mithridates the son of Gazabar, and numbered them [the vessels] to Sassabasar the prince of Juda = (Judah). 9 And this is the number: thirty bowls of gold, a thousand bowls of silver, nine and twenty knives, thirty cups of gold, 10 Silver cups of a second sort, four hundred and ten: other vessels a thousand. 11 All the vessels of gold and silver, five thousand four hundred: all these Sassabasar brought with them that came up from the captivity of Babylon to Jerusalem, Ezra 1:8 to 11.]

We don't know if God really gave the king of Persia Cyrus all the kingdoms of the earth. He became very friendly with the Jews and promised to rebuild the house of the lord God. The Jews are divided into two groups; the Zionists and the Orthodox Jews. The Zionists wanted to liberate Israel from the invaders, as the Iranians, Arabs, Asians, Africans = (Ethiopians). The Zionists Jews are seeking democracy system to control Israel, not the Torah. They believe that the Torah and the state are two different things. The Orthodox Jews protest wars and are aiming to fulfill the Torah's commandments in Israel, as its law. The Orthodox Jews were and still friendlly with the Persians. It is confirmed in Ezra 1:1 to 6, and Ezra 6:1 to 3. The orthodox Jews are in harmony with the Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad also, as it was declared in September 24 2007 in the United Nation.

The king of Persia gave the vessels of the temple and gave them to the king of Judah that was in Persia.

It shows the correlation with the king of Judah and Iran. Israel was divided into two divisions, the northern kingdom of Israel and the southern kingdom of Judah in 975 BC. The northern kingdom of Israel was ruled by ten tribes of Israel, which was captive by the Assyrians in 721 BC. The northern kingdom of Israel survived for 250 years, (book of Second Kings Chapter 17). And the southern kingdom of Judah was controlled by two tribes of Israel, Judah, and Benjamin, (book of Second Kings Chapter 25. The kingdom of Judah was captive by the Babylonians in 586 BC. The kingdom of Judah survived for 400 years. This division was before, during, and after the Assyrians and the Babylonians captivities. We recognize this division in Israel between the Orthodox Jews and the Zionist that control the state of Israel. The Babylonians had captive the Jews of JUDAH for 75 years in Babylon. During this captivity in Babylon, the southern kingdom of Judah gained friendship with the king Darius who liberated them and helped them to rebuild God's temple. Therefore, we recognize this friendship between the orthodox Jews and Persia = (Iran) in the twentieth first century also. Nevertheless, the Zionists Jews have enmity with Iran.

The passage reads: [1 Now the enemies of Juda = (Judah) and Benjamin heard that the children of the captivity were building a temple to the Lord the God of Israel. 2 And they came to Zorobabel, and the chief of the fathers, and said to them: Let us build with you, for we seek your God as ye do: behold we have sacrificed to him, since the days of Asor Haddan king of Assyria, who brought us hither. 3 But Zorobabel, and Josue = (Joshua), and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel said to them: You have nothing to do with us to build a house to our God, but we ourselves alone will build to the Lord our God, as Cyrus king of the Persians hath commanded us. 4 Then the people of the land hindered the hands of the people of Juda = (Judah), and troubled them in building. 5 And they hired counselors against them, to frustrate their design all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of the Persians. 6 And in the reign of Assuerus = (Ahasuerus), in the beginning of his reign, they wrote an accusation against the inhabitants of Juda = (Judah) and Jerusalem. 7 And in the days of Artaxerxes, Beselam, Mithridates, and Thabeel, and the rest that were in the council wrote to Artaxerxes king of the Persians : and the letter of accusation was written in Syriac, and was read in the Syrian tongue, Ezra 4:1 to 7.] The enemies of the house of Judah troubled Zorobabel, and Josue = (Joshua), and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel the house to rebuild the house of the lord God.

The above passage in Ezra 4:1 to 7 indicates that the Orthodox Jews, which is the house of Judah = (the Jacobite) received helps from the King Cyrus of Persia to rebuild the house of the Lord God. It confirms that the Zionists are the Northern kingdom of Israel. However, who is on God's side in those groups, the Iranians, the Zionists, or the Orthodox Jews that are called the house of Judah and the Jacobite as well?

According to what they have claimed, these three groups are on God's side. However, Iran is on allah's side, which commands his people to kill in his name. The Orthodox Jews and the Zionists are on God Yahweh's side according to the "peaceful" Torah. Ancient and modern Jews don't know about the existence of peaceful and violent commandments of God Yahweh in the Torah. The Jews follow Yahweh's commandments, which command them to kill in His name also. However, God Yahweh is not god of violent; God Yahweh is peaceful and doesn't command His people to kill. Some ancient Jews knew about the peaceful commandments of God Yahweh in the Torah. Those ancient Jews weren't many and those peaceful commandments didn't remain long time in the Torah.

If the Ten Commandments prohibit us to kill human being, how God commands us to kill in His name. Why these violent are permitted in the Torah?

For more information, refer to page "Crimes in the name of God" and page "Ishmael and Isaac". The Orthodox Jews that are called the house of Judah and the Jacobite had history dealing with the Iranians during the prophet Ezra. This correlation is flourished in the twentieth first century with the Iranian moslems = (muslims) also. For more information about the Jacobite, refer to page "Ishmael and Isaac". The Orthodox Jews and the Iranians' relations aren't coincidences. The Iranian Hebrews Orthodox relation repeated it self over centuries. This correlation shall trigger unpleasant situation, and it shall cause conflicts in the Jewish community and worldwide politic. Iran is well recognized as terrorist country over centuries. The countries that are associated with Iran are considered terrorists as well. I don't think the Orthodox Jews know the danger that shall threat Israel and the world in this association. I believe the Orthodox Jews gathered with Iran just to disregard the Zionists Jews of Israel.

However, we don't know what Mahmoud Ahmadinejad the president of Iran is aiming in the twentieth first century.

Is he going to deceive the Jews by the previous Iranians friendship with the orthodox Jews of Judah? What will happen to the Zionists that are defending Israel from the enemies?

Who is on God's side, are they the Orthodox Jews or the Zionists? How the Orthodox Jews could gather with Iran = (the Jews' enemies) against the Zionist Jews of Israel. 

The Jewish captivities and the return of the remnant to Jerusalem, rebuilding the temple and the wall, are mentioned in the books of Ezra, Nehemiah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi.

The passage reads: [1 Then king Darius gave orders to search in the library documents that were laid up in Babylon, 2 And there was found in Ecbatana, which is a castle in the province of Media  a document, which this record says [written]. 3 In the first year of Cyrus the king: Cyrus the king decreed, that the house of God should be built, which is in Jerusalem, in the place where they may offer sacrifices, and that they lay the foundations that may support the height of threescore cubits, and the breadth [length] of threescore cubits, Ezra 6:1 to 3.] It means, the Midian overwhelmed Babylon also, therefore the king Darius of the Medes gave orders to search in Babylon.

[Note: the word “Media” may refer to “Midian” or “Medes”]

[9 For we [Jews] are bondmen, and in our bondage our God hath not forsaken us, but hath extended mercy upon us before the king of the Persians, to give us life, and to set up the house of our God, and rebuild the desolations thereof, and to give us a fence in Juda = (Judah) and Jerusalem, Ezra 9:9.] The Jews were really attached to the Persian = (Iranian) king.

[14 And the ancients of the Jews built and prospered according to the prophecy of Aggeus = (Haggai) the prophet, and of Zacharias = (Zechariah) the son of Addo: and they built and finished, by the commandment of the God of Israel, and by the commandment of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes kings of the Persians. 15 And they were finishing this house of God, until the third day of the month of Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of king Darius, Ezra 6:14 to 15.] It means, the Persian king helped to rebuild God's temple.

[28 PHARES = (PERES): thy kingdom is divided, and is given to the Medes and Persians, Daniel 5:28.]

Daniel interpret the dream to the king Baltasar the son of Nabuchodonosor = (Nebuchadrezzar) = (Nebuchadnezzar) king of Babylon. Daniel warned the king in losing his kingdom and it shall be given to the Medes and Persians.

[30 The same night Baltasar the Chaldean king was slain. 31 And Darius the Mede = (Median) succeeded to the kingdom, being threescore and two years old, Daniel 5:30 to 31.] This passage confirms that the Medes and the Persians overwhelmed Babylon by king Darius.

[Note: The word "Mede" in some translations is "Median". It is possible that the word "Medes" is plural of "Mede" and "Median".]

1:8 - Medes and Persia shall kill God's people

The word Midian first mentioned in the book of Genesis. The word Midian is spelled "Madian". It refers to the son of Keturah the third wife of Abraham, Genesis 25:1 to 6.

The word "Mede" in some translations is "Median", Daniel 5:30 to 31. It is possible that the word "Medes" is plural of "Mede" and "Median". We don't have sufficient evidence to prove if the word "Median" refer to "Midian". The word Midian is mentioned in the book of Exodus 2:15 also, it is where Moses met his first wife in the Midian land. If the word Median refers to the Midian, it means Moses got married with a woman from his enemies. There are passages in the bible where it indicates that the Midians are the Hebrews' enemies and in other passages, they aren't. However, for sure the Arabs aren't Midians.

[19 And he said to me: I will shew thee what things are to come to pass in the end of the malediction: for the time hath its end. 20 The ram, which thou sawest with horns, is the king of the Medes and Persians = (Persia) = (Iran). 21 And the he goat, is the king of the Greek= (Grecia) = (Greece), and the great horn that was between his eyes, the same is the first king. 22 But whereas when that was broken, there arose up four for it: four kings shall rise up of his nation, but not with his strength. 23 And after their reign, when iniquities shall be grown up, there shall arise a king of a shameless face, and understanding dark sentences. 24 And his power shall be strengthened, but not by his own force: and he shall lay all things waste, and shall prosper, and do more than can be believed. And he shall destroy the mighty, and the people of the saints, Daniel 8:19 to 24.]

[Note: the word “Media” may refer to “Midian” or “Medes”]

The angel Gabriel interpreted Daniel's dream, he explains that the king of Persia and Medes with the help of the king of Grecia = (Greek) shall go against God and shall kill the saints, which are the Jews and the Christians. Modern politic of the twentieth first century in the Middle East, Asia, and Africa that the Syrians moslems = (muslims) Arabs and the Iranians moslem = (muslim) shae = (shiites) show violent against the Jews and the Christians. The Orthodox Jews are deceived by the Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The Lebanese Christians protesters that are against democracy and their own Christian president in Lebanon, are encouraging Iran and Syria to overcome Lebanon. The book of Ezra 9:9 indicates the Iranians friendship to the Orthodox Jews.

However, the angel Gabriel prophesied about the Iranians deception against God's people in the end of days.

The angel Gabriel [or Jesus] and Michael the prince of the angels' princes shall fight with the king of Persia and the Greek = (Grecias) = (Greece) king.

In Daniel 10:5 to 6, the person that appeared to Daniel probably was Jesus or Gabriel. The scripture describes an anonymous person, who dressed in white and with fiery eyes. Biblically, this description refers to Jesus Christ. However, in verse 21, this person couldn't fulfill the prophecies that are in the book of life without Michael the prince of the angles' princes. Does Jesus need help to fulfill those prophecies? The book of Revelation describes Jesus' return to earth to destroy evil; he shall come with the armies of heavens to judge and to fight evil. Jesus is capable to judge and fight evil alone. The scripture says: Jesus had a sword of two edges in his mouth to judge and to fight evil through God's Word, not through violence. The sword represents God's righteous Word. The armies of heaven followed Jesus, and Jesus who had the sword, not the armies.

The passage reads: 11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called faithful and true, and with justice doth he judge and fight. 12 And his eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns, and he had a name written, which no man knoweth but himself. 13 And he was clothed with a garment sprinkled with blood; and his name is called, THE WORD OF GOD. 14 And the armies that are in heaven followed him on white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, Revelation 19:11 to 14.

The passage reads: 5 And I lifted up my eyes, and I saw: and behold a man clothed in linen, and his loins were girded with the finest gold: 6 And his body was like the chrysolite, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as a burning lamp: and his arms, and all downward even to the feet, like in appearance to glittering brass: and the voice of his word like the voice of a multitude, Daniel 10:5 to 6.

[20 And he said: Dost thou know wherefore I am come to thee? and now I will return, to fight against the prince of the Persians. When I went forth, there appeared the prince of the Greeks = (Grecias) = (Greece) coming. 21 But I will tell thee what is set down in the scripture of truth: and none is my helper in all these things, but Michael the prince of the angels' princes, Daniel 10:20 to 21.] This war shall take place at the end of this world. We should be aware of the king of Persia = (Iran) the king of Greek = (Grecias) = (Greece), the Syrians and the Arabs in General, Asia, and Africa = (Ethiopia).

[17 For he brought upon them the king of the Chaldeans =[Babylon] , and he slew their young men with the sword in the house of his sanctuary, he had no compassion on young man, or maiden, old man or even him that stooped for age, but he delivered them all into his hands, Second Chronicles 36:17.] The Lord God revenge his people, He sent the king of Babylon to destroy his people in Judah. It sounds harsh for loving God to revenge His people.

[19 And the enemies set fire to the house of God, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, burnt all the towers, and whatsoever was precious they destroyed. 20 Whosoever escaped the sword, was led into Babylon, and there served the king and his sons till the reign of the king of Persia. 21 That the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias = (Jeremiah)  might be fulfilled, and the land might keep her Sabbaths: for all the days of the desolation she kept a Sabbath, till the seventy years were expired. 22 But in the first year d of Cyrus king of the Persians, to fulfil the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by the mouth of Jeremias = (Jeremiah) , the Lord stirred up the heart of Cyrus king of the Persians who commanded it to be proclaimed through all his kingdom, and by writing also, saying: 23 Thus saith Cyrus king of the Persians: All the kingdoms of the earth hath the Lord the God of heaven given to me, and he hath charged me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judea: who is there among you of all his people? The Lord his God be with him, and let him go up, Second Chronicles 36:19 to 23.] The lord God forgave His people and stirred up the heart of the king of Persia to liberate the Jews and to rebuild the house of the lord. The captivity of the Jewish people in Babylon was for seventy years.

[Thus saith Cyrus king of the Persians: All the kingdoms of the earth hath the Lord the God of heaven given to me, and he hath charged me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judea: who is there among you of all his people? The Lord his God be with him, and let him go up, Second Chronicles 36:23.] It is amazing how the king of Persia returned to God and got revelation to rebuild his temple. History shows the enmity of the Persian = (Iranians) to the Jewish people and the Christians. In this passage, the king of Persia is righteous.

[2 When he sat on the throne of his kingdom, the city Susan was the capital of his kingdom. 3 Now in the third year of his reign he made a great feast for all the princes, and for his servants, for the most mighty of the Persians, and the nobles of the Medes, and the governors of the provinces in his sight, Esther 1:2 to 3.] This passage indicates that the king of Persia Cyrus is the king of Medes also.

[Note: the word “Media” may refer to “Midian” or “Medes”] [Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)]

[1 In the days of Assuerus = (Ahasuerus), who reigned from India to Ethiopia over a hundred and twenty-seven provinces: 2 When he sat on the throne of his kingdom, the city Susan was the capital of his kingdom. 3 Now in the third year of his reign he made a great feast for all the princes, and for his servants, for the most mighty of the Persians, and the nobles of the Medes, and the governors of the provinces in his sight, Esther 1:1 to 3.] It means: during the king of Persia Ahasuerus, the kingdom of Persia was from India to Ethiopia. It means part of Asia from India toward the west and toward the south till Africa, including the Middle East was under the Persian kingdom. Iraq is included.

[1 In the first year of Darius the son of Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) of the seed of the Medes, who reigned over the kingdom of the Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans), Daniel 9:1.] It means that the kingdom of Babylon belongs to the king Darius, who reigned from India to Ethiopia.

[13 Baked the wise men, who according to the custom of the kings, were always near his person, and all he did was by their counsel, who knew the laws, and judgments of their forefathers: 14 (Now the chief and nearest him were, Charsena, and Sethar, and Admatha, and Tharsis = (Tarshish), and Mares, and Marsana, and Mamuchan, seven princes of the Persians, and of the Medes, who saw the face of the king, and were used to sit first after him :) 15 What sentence ought to pass upon Vasthi the queen, who had refused to obey the commandment of king Assuerus = (Ahasuerus), which he had sent to her by the eunuchs, Esther 1:13 to 15.] This passage proves Persia and Medes were ruled by seven princes. And it proves that the Medes and Persia are part of the king's kingdom.

[5 There was a Jewish man in the city of Susan, named Mardochai, the son of Jair, the son of Semei = (Shimei), the son of Cis = (Kish), of the race of Jemini = (Benjamite) = (Benjamin), 6 Who had been from those that were scattered away from Jerusalem with Jechonias king of Juda = (Judah), at the time that Nabuchodonosor = (Nebuchadrezzar) = (Nebuchadnezzar) king of Babylon, Esther 2:5 to 6.] It means that the city of Susan is in Babylon, where the Jews were exiled.

[1 In the days of Assuerus = (Ahasuerus), who reigned from India to Ethiopia over a hundred and twenty-seven provinces: 2 When he sat on the throne of his kingdom, the city Susan was the capital of his kingdom. 3 Now in the third year of his reign he made a great feast for all the princes, and for his servants, for the most mighty of the Persians, and the nobles of the Medes, and the governors of the provinces in his sight, Esther 1:1 to 3.] This passage confirms the capital of the kingdom of king Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) is Susan. This kingdom is from India to Ethiopia, which include Medes and Persia.

[1 And king Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) made all the land, and all the islands of the sea tributary. 2 And his strength and his empire, and the dignity and greatness wherewith he exalted Mardochai, are written in the book of the Machabees for the Medes, and of the Persians: 3 And how the second Mardochai next after king Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) was great among the Jews, and acceptable to the people of his brethren, seeking the good of his people, and speaking those things which were for the welfare of his seed, Esther 10:1 to 3.] This passage indicates that the king Assuerus was in harmony with the Jews. The Medes were very friendly with the Jews also.

1:9 - Persia = (Iran) and Medes of the twentieth first century

The following note explains the Iranian politic with the Syrian Arabs and their associations with the Islamic extremists. This organization is combined from three divisions of the Islamic religion. The first is the protestant sene = (sunnis) moslems = (muslims) of Saudi Arabia, the second is the shae = (shiites) moslems = (muslims) of Iran, and the third is the Alewe moslems = (muslims) of Syria.

[Note starts: This Islamic organization is supported by Russia and China. Usually, these three Islamic divisions are not in one accord. However, some extremists in those divisions gathered to descend democracy and to kill the Jews and the Christians worldwide. Example: the shae = (shiites) of Iran are against the moslem = (muslim) sene = (sunnis) of Saudi Arabia, however, in this religious war = (Jihad) some extremists sene = (sunnis) moslems = (muslims) as Alk-ae-da = (Al Qaeda) gathered with the shae = (shiites) Iranians to achieve their evil goal. The Elqaeda antidemocratic sene = (sunnis) moslems = (muslims) are in harmony with the antidemocratic shae = (shiites) moslem = (muslim) of Iran and with the Antidemocratic Alewe moslems = (muslims) of Syria also.

However, very few democratic sene = (sunnis), shae = (shiites), and Alewe moslems = (muslims) protest these terrorisms. However, there are ninety percent of the Islamic people who encourage terrorisms to descend democracy worldwide. These Islamic extremists are revolting against their own Islamic governments that embrace democracy. They believe that democracy doesn’t agree with the koran = (quran)'s law. They demand an Islamic state that shall be controlled by one moslem = (muslim) leader. This leader is "Almihdi" or Kalifate = (Alkalifa) = (Caliphate). The Caliphate of mohamed is going to judge and rule the world according to the koran = (quran)'s law. After this organization achieves its goal in the Middle East, the moslems = (muslims) will Islamize Asia, Europe, and America. Those extremists are allah's obedient people. We can't blame them; they are obeying their book “the koran = (quran)”. According to the koran = (quran), the moslems = (muslims) that refuse to kill the unbelievers in the name of allah are considered blasphemers and sinners. For more information, refer to page "Islamic and bible verses". 

The only race or religion that is killing the Christians and the Jews since 666 AD till the twentieth first century is the fanatic moslems = (muslims). It refers to the prophecy that was spoken by the lord Jesus Christ to John. The beast = (a leader of fanatic religion) shall kill the Jews and the Christians, and whosoever doesn't submit to his religion. The total number of this leader's name is (666), Revelation chapter 13. For more information, refer to page "Beast / religious or authority"   and "Beast"

moslems = (muslims) do exist in the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and worldwide. The terrorists moslems = (muslims) that are aiming to destroy Christianity and Judaism, are from numerous countries. Those countries are Syria, Algeria, Morocco, Libya, Egypt, Middle Eastern countries, Iran, Afghanistan, Asia, and Africa. The bible names the Africans "Ethiopians". Prophet Ezekiel spoke about those nations in Ezekiel 38. [Note: Meshech is Moscow in Russia, and Tubal is Kabul in Afghanistan, and Ethiopia is Africa.]

These nations are united under unknown organization, which is identified by anonymous terrorists. In reality, those mentioned countries are terrorizing and supporting other terrorists also. Their goal is to unite the Islamic nations under one moslem = (muslim) leader, which is "Almihdi". The word Almihdi means the spiritual guider. The moslems = (muslims) copied this name from the bible, which is identified by Elijah. According to the bible, Elijah shall appear before the dreadful day of the lord to warn and to achieve peace. However, the moslems = (muslims) are not waiting for Elijah; they are creating their own man of war. Iran has an army, which is called the army of Almihdi. This Army is aiming to terrorize the world under the Islamic shae = (shiites) rules. The Syrian forces and the army of Al - mahdi are temporary in one accord at this time. Iran will attack Syria after it achieves its evil goal. The prophecy in the book of Daniel pinpoint on Medes and Iran, the Medes are from an Arabian tribe as Syria and other nations that the prophet Ezekiel mentioned about. During this era of the twentieth first century" the Syrians and the Iranians are attacking Lebanon by (Hezb – ollah) = (the organization of allah) and it is identified by "almoukawama Al-islamia" it means "the Islamic jihad" or "the Islamic fighters". This organization is claiming to be Lebanese citizens. In reality, this organization is Iranian moslem = (muslim) shae = (shiites). During 1975 Lebanese civil war, which was triggered by Syria and Iran in Lebanon, thousands of Iranians and Syrians entered into Lebanon illegally and increased enormously through pleasured marriages. The Syrian and the Iranian governments are supporting these families in Lebanon to increase shae = (shiites) and Alewe moslems = (muslims) in Lebanon. They are about one million and half Iranians and Syrians illegal immigrants in Lebanon. There are about one hundred fifty thousands Palestinians extremists who gathered with Syria and Iran against the Lebanese democratic government. These extremists are fighting against the Christian government and the Christians also. They give them three choices, surrender to the religion of Islam, leave the country, or die. Note ended]

1:10 - Do the Midian have Jewish or Arabic background?

Why the Arabs are trying to twist history claiming the Midian land and the mount of God in Saudi Arabia instead Sinai Desert?

Why there aren't any traces of Ishmael's offspring after Moses' era, and why the Arabs claim to be of Ishmael's offspring without any evidences in the bible and in the koran = (quran)? The Arabs have to obtain some evidences before they claim such Semitic background. According to the family tree of Abraham = (Ibrahim), Ishmael's offspring was diminished before Moses' era. Therefore, the Arabs and the moslems = (muslims) can't claim to be of Abraham's Semitic offspring. Why there aren't any traces of Ishmael's and Keturah's = (Qatura) offspring after Moses' era and after the establishment of Israel through one of Jacob's twelve sons "Judah" = (Judaism), till this day 2008?

During the Arabs’ invasions to their neighboring countries, the people in the Middle East were forced to speak Arabic and to embrace Islam.

The Midian land is in between the Gulf of Suez and the Gulf of Agaba = (Agabah). Some moslem = (muslim) historians claim the Midian land in Saudi Arabia. Biblically, the Midian land is in between the two gulfs. The Arabs' propaganda enforces the people to their false history to believe that the Midian land is on the east side of the Gulf of Agaba = (Agabah). However, biblically the Midian land is in between the two gulfs and on the north side of Sinai Desert.

Ishmael is the firstborn of Abraham, not Isaac.

The Arabs invented this legend to claim the Midian land and the mountain of God "Horeb" in Saudi Arabia instead Sinai Desert. The Arabic false theory was invented to twist history and to sanctify Saudi Arabia's territories. The following text explains how Moses drove the flocks from the Midian land to Sinai Desert near the mount of God in "Horeb", which proves that the Midian land is near Sinai Desert where the mountain of God is located. It proves that the Midian land isn’t in Saudi Arabia.

The mountain in Saudi Arabia is called "Jabal al Lawz" = (mountain of Al Lawz), and is the highest mountain in the region. It stands at 2575 meters, which is 295 meters higher than the Mount Sinai (Gebel Musa) in the Sinai Peninsula. The people believe that the mountain of Lawz is higher because it is the mountain of God. It is ignorant; the mountain of God shouldn't be higher to be the mountain of God. What the Arabian people are doing is deception and evil to twist history. Even if the mountain of God is in Saudi Arabia, it doesn't sanctify corrupted and evil people. Example: the land of Jerusalem is holy, but it is corrupted by sinners from all kinds of races.

The word "Arab" in Arabic language means "sorted", which refers to "sorted people". The word Arabia mean desert also. The Arabic word "Garb" means "south" in English. It is possible that they name those people Arab because they came from the "Garb" = (south).

It shows that the Arabs have no identity; they came from all over and had refuge in the desert

The book of Acts indicates the mountain of God is in Arabia. The word Arabia doesn't mean Saudi Arabia. It means desert. The book of Acts was written around 60 AD, and the book of Exodus was written thousands years before the book of Acts. We can't rely on the book of Acts. The lands’ names change constantly. Invaders change the overwhelmed land according to their names and traditions

For example: The tribe of Dan defeated the tribe of Lais = (Laish) and took their lands. Then, they named it the land of Dan instead the land of Lais = (Laish). The same thing happened to the Midian land also. The Arabs or the mixed race overwhelmed many lands around that region, they named those lands according to their belief.

The passage reads: 9 Arise, and let us go up to them: for we have seen the land which is exceeding rich and fruitful: neglect not, lose no time: let us go and possess it, there will be no difficulty. 10 We shall come to people that is secure, into a spacious country, and the Lord will deliver the place to us, in which there is no want of any thing that grows on the earth. 11 There went therefore of the kindred of Dan, to wit, from Saraa and Esthaol, six hundred men, furnished with arms for war, 12 And going up they lodged in Cariathiarim of Juda = (Judah): which place from that time is called the camp of Dan, and is behind Cariathiarim. 13 From thence, they passed into mount Ephraim. And when they were come to the house of Michas, Judges 18:9 to 13.

[Note: Cariathiarim = (Cariath - Iarim) or (Cariat - Hiarim), which means the village of Iarim = (Hiarim); other translations say: "Kirathjearim or "Kirath -Jearim"]

The book of Exodus indicates: Moses' wife circumcised her son. It means Moses' wife was aware of this law, which was commanded by Abraham. It is possible that those Midian = (Medes) had Hebrew background. We can't be so sure till it is proven biblically. The Arabs didn't practice this ritual till mohamed's Era. Seventy percent of the koran = (quran) passages were copied from the Torah and Jesus' gospel.

Moses' passage reads: 24 and when he was in his journey, in the inn, the Lord met him, and would have killed him. 25 immediately, Sephora [Moses' wife] took a very sharp stone, and circumcised the fore skin of her son, and touched his feet and said: A bloody spouse art thou to me. 26 And he let him go after she had said A bloody spouse art thou to me, because of the circumcision, Exodus 4:24 to 26.

How Moses' wife Sephora the Midian circumcised her son, was she Hebrew? Did the Midians circumcise the male children according to Abraham's covenant that he received from God Yahweh? Did the Midian have Jewish background who dwelt in the Midians' land? It is possible the land was named "Midian" according to someone's name.  However, the Midian's land wasn't not in Modern Saudi Arabia. The Midian land was in between the Red Sea gulfs?

The above map indicates the Midian's land is on the east side of the Gulf of Aqaba = (Aqabah), which is modern Saudi Arabia. There is no biblical evidence to prove that the Arabs of Saudi Arabia are Midian. And there is no biblical evidence to prove that the Midian land is in modern Saudi Arabia. The Midianites near Sinai Desert have no enmity with the Hebrews, therefore Moses Married a Midian woman. There are two conclusions for that dilemma. The first: The land of the Midian during Moses' era is north of Sinai desert, which indicate that the Midians aren't Arabs. However, there is no evidence if the Midians are Keturah's offspring. The second: There is no biblical prove that the Midian people or the Midianites dwelt in Modern Saudi Arabia, which is east of Agaba Gulf. The Arabs invented this myth to claim that the mountain of God in Horeb where God spoke to Moses is in Saudi Arabia instead Sinai Desert.

1:11 - Keturah's sons the Midian and the Medes

The book of Daniel mentions about the Persians, which are the Iranians that shall gather with the Medes to kill the Jews and the Christians in Israel, Lebanon, and worldwide.

Who are the Medes, are they the Midian-ites, or they are different race?

Daniel interprets the king's dream, which is about the written that the king saw on the wall. Daniel said to the king: [26 and this is the interpretation of the word. MANE: God hath numbered thy kingdom, and hath finished it. 27 THECEL: thou art weighed in the balance, and art found wanting. 28 PHARES: thy kingdom is divided, and is given to the Medes and Persians, Daniel 5:26 to 28.]

[Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)] [PHARES = (Phares) = (Phiris) = (Firiss) = (Persians) = (Iranians)]

Information about the Midians, Persia, Arabs, Moscow, and Afghanistan

The Persian and the Medes: The Persians are the Iranians and the Medes are another race. The word Medes is always mentioned with the word Persia.

In some biblical passages, the word Medes spells Media. The King Darius of the Persian is of the Medes race. However, the Medes’ location and origin is not identified biblically.

The book of Daniel indicates a prophecy concerning the Medes and the Persians. This prophecy is about attacking the holy city Jerusalem to kill God's people "the Jews and the Christians in Israel and in Lebanon. During Daniel's era, Lebanon was in the Promised Land's territories. Since "1975 till 2007", the Iranians forces of (Hezb – ollah) and the Syrians Arabs invaded Lebanon and attacked Israel many times. Theses forces serve the mark of the beast "666" which Jesus Christ prophesied about it in the book of Revelation chapter 13. The prophecy is about the massacres of God's people, "the Jews and the Christians". The prophet Ezekiel issued the same prophecy about Gog and Magog that shall gather with Meshech, which is Moscow, and Tubal, which is Kabul of Afghanistan, and with Libya and Ethiopia, which is the Middle Easter countries and Africa. God shall gather these people near Jerusalem to destroy them in the valley of Hamgog, Ezekiel 39:11, Revelation 16:16. This prophecy is approaching to be fulfilled through the massacre of the Christians and the Jews, in Lebanon and in Israel. Russia, which is Moscow, is helping the Arabs and the Persians Iranians to attack the Middle Eastern and the western Christians. We recognize these terrorisms in the Middle East, Asia, Africa, and in Europe to descend democracy by the Alk-ae-da = (Al Qaeda) forces. The Alk-ae-da = (Al Qaeda) forces are supported by Syria and Iran, and other Islamic countries that are still not identified. The goal of these terrorists is to establish an Islamic state to control the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and Europe. Afterward, these terrorisms will approach America to Islamized it also. 

 Iran, Syria, Asia, and Africa succeeded to enter Lebanon to destroy democracy. There are millions illegal Iranians, Syrians, and Palestinians immigrants in Lebanon, who are ready to descend the Lebanese democracy and to overwhelmed Lebanon. This revolution gives them the opportunity to attack Israel from the Lebanese boarders also. Lebanon is the only safe boarder to attack Israel. The Arabs and the Iranians can’t attack from the wilderness; they have no place to hide in the desert. The Iranians and the Arabs usually hide behind children and women during wars. There are many residential villages in Lebanon to use them as human shield during their attack on Israel.

We don't know if there were two kinds of Midians during Moses' era. The passage tells that Keturah's sons are Medan and Midian. As there are two names that spell almost the same, there is possibility of two kinds of Midians also. Therefore, I find it abnormal for Moses to take a wife from his enemies unless those Midians that attacked the Hebrews are not the same as his wife's origin. 

Keturah had six children, Zamran = (Zimran), and Jecsan = (Jokshan), and Madan = (Medan), and Madian = (Midian), and Jesboc = (Ishbak), and Sue = (Shuah) = (Shuah). Then, Jescan begot five children and Madian begot also five children, total of ten grandchildren. However, those grandchildren have no related history with Keturah in the bible, which indicates that those names were invented. Zamran, Madan, Jesboc, and Sue have no grandchildren, which indicate also that those names were invented. The author chose two names, which are mostly mentioned in the bible, they are Madian = (Midian) and Saba = (Sheba); however those names have no relation with Keturah's offspring by any means. This conclusion confirms that Keturah's didn't exist as Abraham's third wife. The only motive that I could visualize in this myth that the author wanted to relate some of those names to Abraham's offspring. The family or the families that the author wanted to connect to Keturah’s offspring are the Madian = (Midian) and Saba = (Sheba), which are mostly mentioned in the bible. The Midian had enmity with the Hebrews after Moses' era. The family or the offspring of Sheba as the Queen of Sheba were connected with the Hebrews, especially with King Solomon. [Note: the Midians have no relation with the Midian of Moses’ wife, unless they became enemies afterward.]

It means that the author had two motives in this conclusion, the first is to exclude the Midians = (Medes) = (the Midianites), and the second is to connect Shaba tribe to the Hebrews. However, is Keturah's offspring the Madian = (Midian) that Moses took his first wife from? And who are the Midianites; are they related to Moses' wife or to Keturah's offspring, are they completely different tribes?

[Note: the word Madian may refer to = (Midian) = (Median) =Madianite = (Midianite)]

 [Note: Assur = (Asshur)]

 [Note: in some translation Henoch = (Enoch) = (Henoc) = (Hanoch)], and [Mathusala = (Methuselah) = (Mathusale)]

[Note: Henoch = (Henoc) in Genesis 4:17 is not the same Enoch that is in Genesis 5:24. Henoch = (Henoc) in verse 4:17 is Cain's son, and Enoch in verse 5:24 is of Adam's seed, who God took to heaven.]

The bible indicates that the gentiles including the Midianites shall convert and follow God Yahweh, and the gold of Sheba shall be brought to Jerusalem. It shall be fulfilled during the peaceful time on earth during the reign of the Messiah Jesus on earth, Isaiah 60:6. It means that the Midians = (Medes) and Sheba don’t have any Hebraic background. And it means also that the Midianites aren’t of Keturah’s offspring. Unless they became enemies after Abraham dispatched Hagar's, keturah's, and the concubines’ offspring and gave them gifts. Then, Abraham gave all his properties and his goods to his second son Isaac.

Keturah’s children: Zamran is mentioned in Genesis and in First chronicles without any offspring. Jecsan begot Saba = (Shaba). Saba is mentioned in Psalms as Queen of Sheba = (Saba), and in Psalms as the gold of Sheba = (Saba) that shall be given to the lord. Jescan begot Dadan, but Dadan’s offspring Assurim = (Asshurim), and Latusim = (Letushim) [= (Latussim)], and Loomin = (Leummim) don’t have any record or offspring in the bible. Madan = (Medan) doesn’t have any record in the bible, however, it may refer to Medes and Iran = (Persia) in the book of Daniel. However, the name doesn’t spell the same way. Madan has no record in the bible. The Midians = (Medes) have history and offspring in the bible, but is not related to Keturah. Moses married a woman from the Midians = (Medes).

Daniel interprets the vision to king Baltasar: [26 and this is the interpretation of the word. MANE: God hath numbered thy kingdom, and hath finished it. 27 THECEL: thou art weighed in the balance, and art found wanting. 28 PHARES: thy kingdom is divided, and is given to the Medes and Persians, Daniel 5:26 to 28.] [Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)]

Biblically, Keturah wasn’t a concubine, she was married to Abraham. The name Saba = (Sheba) is well recognized in the bible also, it existed away before Keturah. The names of Keturah’s sons are not spelled correctly as the other names in the bible, which make it difficult to relate them biblically or through history.

Example: the following names are mentioned during Noah, which is away from Keturah’s era. It is possible that Keturah didn't exist as Abraham’s third wife because I don’t see any reliable information in Keturah’s offspring in the bible. On the contrary, those people that the author used as Keturah’s sons were enemies to the Hebrews, in exception for the queen of Sheba; she was gracious to King Solomon. The queen of Sheba existed during Solomon's era, not during Keturah. However, the queen of Sheba wasn’t of Keturah’s offspring? Sheba was first mentioned as the offspring of Cham = (Ham) the son Noah. Cham = (Ham) begot Chus = (Cush), and then Chanaan = (Canaan), Saba = (Sheba), Dadan = (Dedan), and Chus = (Cush) begot Nemrod = (Nimrod), and then Babylon, Assur = (Asshur), and the Palestinians came from the same offspring. Keturah existed after that era, Genesis 10:8 to 14. [Note: the word “Nimrod” in Arabic means “rebellious”.]

Keturah's offspring and Moses’ wife's background weren't mentioned properly in the Torah. Biblically, the Midianites are the Hebrews’ enemies, which make it difficult to believe that Moses married a woman from his enemies. There is a possibility that they were two kinds of Midianites, or some of the violent passages that are in the Torah mention a similar name to the Midian. Keturah's two sons were named Madan = (Medan), and Madian = (Midian), which tells us that it is possible that the Midian people were two different tribes. It is possible that Moses married from his enemies the Midianite because most Hebrews got married with Canaanites women also, which is forbidden in Jewish’s Law and tradition.

The only motive that I could visualize in this myth is that the author wanted to relate some of those invented names to Abraham's offspring through his wife Keturah. The family or the families that the author wanted to connect are the Madian = (Midian) and Saba = (Sheba), which are mentioned commonly in the bible.

It means that the author had two motives, the first is to exclude the Midians, and the second is to connect Shaba tribe to the Hebrews. However, is Keturah's offspring of the Madian = (Midian) that Moses took his first wife from? And who are the Midianites; are they related to Moses' wife or to Keturah's offspring, or they are completely from different tribe?

[Note: Madian = (Midian) = (Median)]

[Note: Bersabee = (Bershebah) is “Ber of Shebah”, it means “the well of Shebah” it means the well of abundance. The word "Beer" means "well" and "Ber" means "land" or field. The word Shebah in Arabic or in Hebrew means “abundance” = had enough to eat or enough to drink, or “full”, Genesis 26:32 to 33.

[Note: Part of Shebah’s city or village is in modern Israel and part in Lebanon boarder. The Syrians authority, the Lebanese authority, and the Israelite authority are fighting for the fields of Shabah”. In reality, this place belongs to Israel. It is been proven in Genesis 26:32 to 33. They call it Mazarea Shabah or Shebah. The word Mazarea is Arabic language means "fields" “Fields of Shabah” or “Farms of Shabah].

1:12 - Did Abraham's third wife Keturah exist?

Why Keturah’s sons’ names aren't accurate in the bible? Why those names aren't in the Hebraic family?

Naming Keturah’s sons by the names of their enemies will deprave them from their rights of inherit to the Promised Land and from the Hebraic family. Did Keturah and her sons exist? Yes, Keturah and her sons existed. Why Keturah's sons became the enemies of the Hebrews? Why they were depraved from their rights to the Promised Land? Did Keturah exist as Abraham's third wife?

Are the giants the descendants of Cain and Esau? For more information about the "peaceful" Torah, Jesus' gospel, the Promised Land, Ishmael, Isaac, Esau, the daughters of men, and the giants, refer to page "Giants" and page "Gog and Gog / Cain's race", and page "Ishmael / Isaac".

The names Shaba and Midians are mentioned in the bible as Noah’s grandsons and as Keturah’s sons also. Was it coincidence? It had happened to Ishmael’s offspring also. Why those names are mentioned as Ketuarh's sons?

According to some violent and odd passages in the Torah, all Abraham's children would lose the right of inheritance except Isaac and his offspring. Jacob became the firstborn of Isaac instead Esau. The twelve sons of Jacob became the tribes of Israel. Did Jacob have 12 sons, no. For more information, refer to page "Ishmael and Isaac". According to the law, the firstborn is entitled. Ishmael is the firstborn and his descendants are entitled to the right of inheritance to their father Ishmael, their grandfather Abraham, and to the Promised Land. In according to deprave Ishmael and his descendants from their rights, the author claimed: Abraham dispatched his second wife Hager out of his home without any valid reason. Usually, the person would lose the right of inheritance through transgression and blaspheming. According to God’s Word, the lawbreakers shall be cutoff of the children of Israel. However, if God judge His prophets according to this law, ninety percent of God’s prophets would lose their heritages as the chosen people and as the prophet of God.

[Note: Why there are peaceful and violent commandments in the Torah? For more information, refer to page "Ishmael and Isaac".]

Example: Moses transgressed against God and killed an Egyptian. David killed his army commander to take his wife; Solomon left God for seven hundreds ungodly women. Abraham lied to the king about his wife Sarah; he said that she is his sister to give her to the king as wife or to flirt with, etc… However, Ishmael didn’t transgress God. When God told Abraham that his wife Sara is going to conceive a son “Isaac”, which shall be the son of the promise. Isaac wasn’t even born yet; however, Ishmael was around one year old. Why God depraved Ishmael from that heritage. Ishmael didn’t commit any sin? Therefore, we can’t rely on some violent commandments in the Torah concerning the offspring of Abraham. Abraham was responsible for all the children that his three wives bore for him and from the concubine women also. It isn’t lawful for a man to dispatch his family without valuable and lawful reason. In this accusation, the author makes Abraham a sinner. The bible indicates: Abraham gave those wives and his children gifts and sent them away. Then, Abraham gave everything he had to Isaac. In this conversion, Isaac and his descendants are the only successors. I find it abnormal from Abraham to give gifts to his children and give everything he had to Isaac. It is deception and conspiracy. Abraham is innocent.

DID Abraham dispatch Hagar and his firstborn Ishmael; Keturah and her children and his other children from the concubines. If Abraham committed such crime, he deserves to be punished.

Why the bible excludes Abraham’s wives and all his children except Sarah and Isaac. Why Isaac and his descendants as Jacob and his children became the only successors and the twelve tribes of Israel.

Are the giants the descendants of Cain and Esau? For more information about the "peaceful" Torah, Jesus' gospel, the Promised Land, Ishmael, Isaac, Esau, the daughters of men, and the giants, refer to page "Giants" and page "Gog and Gog / Cain's race", and page "Ishmael / Isaac".

The book of Galatians is written by the false apostle Paul. This book shows violence and racism. In reality, Paul blasphemes God in all his fourteen epistles in the New Testaments = (Jesus' history). Paul was killing the Christians including Jesus' disciples. Paul hated the Jews, God, and His Law. According to the Torah, Paul agreed by discriminating Hagar, the workers, and the slaves. Paul placed the servants, which are the overage working people in the inferior category. Paul depraved the servants from salvation. Hagar was Sara' servant but Hagar gave her to be Abraham's wife lawfully. Therefore, there is no need to name Hagar by bondwoman and Sara by the freewoman. Paul in his epistle to Corinthians prohibited women from speaking in church, Paul obliged them to keep silent in church, and they have to let their husbands to speak for them. Paul obliged women to cover their heads in church.

Paul contradicts his own word in his epistle to Galatians, he said: There is neither Jew nor Greek: there is neither bond nor free: there is neither male nor female. For you are all one in Christ = (Mashiach) = (Messiah) Jesus = (Yeshua), Galatians 3:28. How Paul could equalize men and women, bond and free in one passage, and probated them in other.

The passage reads:

22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, and the other by a free woman.
23 But he who was of the bondwoman, was born according to the flesh: but he of the free woman, was by promise.
24 Which things are said by an symbol. For these are the two testaments. The one from mount Sina, cause unto bondage; which is Agar = (Hagar):
25 For Sina is a mountain in Arabia, which hath resemblance to that Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
26 But that Jerusalem, which is above, is free: which is our mother.

27 For it is written: Rejoice, thou barren, that bears not: break forth and cry, thou that travails not: for many are the children of the desolate, more than of her that hath a husband.
28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
29 But as then he, that was born according to the flesh, persecuted him that was after the spirit; so also it is now.
30 But what says the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son; for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the free woman.
31 So then, brethren, we are not the children of the bondwoman, but of the free: by the freedom wherewith Christ = (Mashiach) = (Messiah) has made us free, Galatians 4:22 to 31.

Paul described Abraham's wives in Galatians 4:22 by mistresses, he named them bondwoman and freewoman, instead wives. In Galatians 4:23, Paul interpreted the birth of Ishmael through the flesh, and the birth of Isaac by the promise. Paul is wrong; both sons were born according to the flesh. Abraham slept with his wives for conception. Ishmael was one year old when God told Abraham about Isaac's birth and His promise. Ishmael didn't do anything wrong to make God choose Isaac Instead Ishmael as the promise child. In reality, this event is a myth. Hagar isn't the actual name of Abraham's second wife. Hagar probably was the first wife of Abraham. Even if we presume Hagar was the second wife of Abraham, her name wasn't Hagar. The meaning of the word "Hagar" in Arabic is "desolated" banded". The book of Genesis explains that Hagar was desolated and banded by Abraham; in another word, Abraham dispatched Hagar from his home. The author named Abraham's second wife according to his myth that he is wrote in the book of Genesis. It is impossible that the second wife of Abraham is Hagar, which means "desolated". The author named her "desolated" because he wanted her to be desolated according to then myth that he invented. Hagar had another name.

In Galatians 4:27, Paul named Ishmael the son of the "desolate", which is Hagar. Paul didn't name her Hagar; he named her "desolated woman". However, this description matches her status in this myth. Galatians 4:27 is not understood, Paul probably was drunk when he wrote this passage. If the desolated woman or the divorced woman has more children than the one that has a husband, it means Paul is accusing the desolated woman "Hagar" of adultery by having children without a husband. And what the barren woman had to do in this passage, Sarah was barren, and then she bore Isaac through normal birth. The way Paul described the barren Sarah by the virgin who had labor without travail, as the virgin birth. It is hoax; the book of Genesis doesn't mention about the virgin birth, it says, Sarah bore Isaac, which means normal birth. It is true that Abraham was old, but nothing is impossible with God. Sarah was conceived through Abraham, not through the Holy Spirit. Mary, the mother of Jesus was conceived through the Holy Spirit, not Sara.

In Paul's epistle to Galatians 4:24 to 26, Paul described Hagar is the bondage from the Mount Sinai with her children. Therefore, they placed Hagar in the myth as Sara's servant, which they believe that they could disgrace Hagar and her descendants through slavery. However, slavery or working average people doesn't disgrace the person, lies and deception does. Mount Sinai is in Sinai Desert, not in Arabia. This passage confused many people concerning the Mount Sinai, which is the mount of God, and it is the mount of Horeb also. According to Paul's passage in Galatians 4:25; the Mount Sinai is in Arabia. Modern people consider it as Saudi Arabia. In reality, the word Arabia means desert in this passage. According to Galatians 4:24 and 25; the Arabs claim themselves as Ishmael's descendants. However, this passage is truth-less. If Hagar is from Mount Sinai, which is the mountain of God, where is the actual mount of God, where God spoke to Moses? Paul claimed the mount of Sinai is resemblance to that in Jerusalem, and is that in bondage with her children. It is confusing, if Paul described Hagar and her children in bondage in Jerusalem, it means Hagar and her children are the Hebrews and the twelve tribes of Israel. Paul also described another Jerusalem, which is above; it means Paul was talking about two Jerusalem, one on earth, which belongs to Hagar's son the firstborn of Abraham "Ishmael" and his twelve sons the twelve tribes of Israel. And the second Jerusalem, which is in from above that belongs to Isaac the second born of Abraham. Then, in Galatians 4:28, Paul placed himself and his followers as Isaac from Jerusalem, which is from above.

In Paul's epistle to Galatians 4:30 and 31, Paul committed a sin by disgracing the overage workers, servants, and the slaves.

The Torah disgraces the bondwomen and the bondmen by quoting the same passage in the book of Genesis, it reads: [And when Sara = (Sarah) had seen the son of Agar = (Hagar) the Egyptian playing with Isaac her son, she said to Abraham: Cast out this bondwoman, and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with my son Isaac. Abraham took this grievously for his son. And God said to him: Let it not seem grievous to thee for the boy, and for thy bondwoman: in all that Sara = (Sarah) hath said to thee, hearken to her voice: for in Isaac shall thy seed be called, Genesis 21:9 to 12.]

Paul excluded himself from overage workers, slaves, and the bondwoman. Paul refused salvation for people that are from the bondwoman. According to Paul's testimony, Hagar and her son Ishmael and his descendants are going to hell. Paul is a false apostle.

1:13 - Keturah's children without biblical history

Why Zamran, Jecsan, Madan, Jesboc, Latusim, and Loomin have no record in the bible. The other names that the author claimed as Keturah's children have no relation with Keturah by any means. It means, those names were copied from the bible and placed as Keturah's children through Abraham. 

Are the giants the descendants of Cain and Esau? For more information about the "peaceful" Torah, Jesus' gospel, the Promised Land, Ishmael, Isaac, Esau, the daughters of men, and the giants, refer to page "Giants" and page "Gog and Gog / Cain's race", and page "Ishmael / Isaac".

Keturah’s son Dedan doesn’t have any biblical history. It is mentioned that the children of Dadan are Assurim = (Asshurim), and Latusim, and Loomin, Genesis 25:3.

Dadan’s name is mentioned in Noah’s seed, which is away before Keturah’s era. I find it abnormal that Dadan is mentioned in Genesis 25 only with his children Assurim = (Asshurim), and Latusim, and Loomin. Those names aren’t mentioned in other passages in the bible, which means that the other names of Keturah's children were invented also. It is possible that Abraham’s third wife Keturah didn’t exist.

The queen of Sheba wasn’t of Keturah’s offspring? Sheba was first mentioned as the offspring of Cham = (Ham) the son Noah. Cham = (Ham) begot Chus = (Cush), and then Chanaan = (Canaan), Saba = (Sheba), Dadan = (Dedan), and Chus = (Cush) begot Nemrod = (Nimrod), and then Babylon, Assur = (Asshur), and the Palestinians came from the same offspring. Keturah existed after that era, Genesis 10:8 to 14. [Note: the word “Nimrod” in Arabic means “rebellious”.]

The Madian = (Midian) “the Midianites”

The Madian = (Midian) “the Midianites” are not of Keturah's offspring because they had wars with the Hebrews, which confirms that the Midianites are not Abraham's descendants through Keturah = (Cetura). [Note: Madian = (Midian) = (Median)]

There is no biblical evidence of Keturah's offspring. The names of her sons existed away before Keturah's era. The queen of Sheba and the Midians are the only names that existed during Noah’s era and after Moses’ era also. However, Sheba doesn’t have any relation with Keturah’s descendants.

The author copied the name Midians, Saba = (Sheba), and Dadan from the previous history of Noah's offspring and claimed them as Keturah's descendants.

Why the Author had to claim Abraham’s third wife Keturah? The only names of Keturah's sons that are recognized in the bible are Sheba and Median, which were existed away before Keturah’s era. These names are mentioned during Moses and Solomon’s era without indication of Keturah’s offspring. 

The following passage helps us to identify the location of Syria, Assyria, Cilicia, Melothus, Tarshish, the children of Ishmael = (Ishmaelite), Mesopotamia, and the Median land. It identifies that the Midian/s are not Arabs, not Assyrians, not Syrians, not of Tarshish, and not of Ishmael = (Ishmaelite).

The Ishmaelite/s were living over against the face of the desert, not in the desert, Judith 2:9 to 16. The Arabs were and still living in the desert, till this day.

The passage reads: [9 He appointed corn to be prepared out of all Syria in his passage. [Note in other translation this verse is number 19]

10 But gold and silver he took out of the king's house in great abundance.  [Note other translation this verse is number 20]

11 And he went forth he and all the army, with the chariots, and horsemen, and archers, who covered the face of the earth, like locusts. [Note in other translation this verse is number 21]

12 And when he had passed through the borders of the Assyrians, he came to the great mountains of Ange, which are on the left of Cilicia: and he went up to all their castles, and took all the strong places. [Note in other translation this verse is number 22]

[Note: verse 12, which is verse 22 reads differently in other translations. It reads: And after three days walking in the city of Ninwe toward Baktelia Alifana = (Ephrata) near the mountain toward the left of the height of Kilkilia, he pitched his camp in that area, then, he walked in the front of his ground's armies and riders and all his chariots to climb the neighboring hills.]

13 And he took by assault the renowned city of Melothus, and pillaged all the children of Tharsis = (Tarshish), and the children of Ismahel = (Ishmael) = (Ismael) = (Ismail), who were over against the face of the desert, and on the south of the land of Cellon. [Note in other translation this verse is number 23]

14 And he passed over the Euphrates and came into Mesopotamia: and he forced all the stately cities that were there, from the torrent of Mambre, till one comes to the sea: [Note in other translation this verse is number 24]

15 And he took the borders thereof from Cilicia to the coasts of Japheth, which are towards the south. [Note in other translation this verse is number 25]

16 And he carried away all the children of Madian = (Midian), and stripped them of all their riches, and all that resisted him he slew with the edge of the sword. [Note in other translation this verse is number 26]

[Note: Madian = (Midian) = (Median)]

17 And after these things he went down into the plains of Damascus in the days of the harvest, and he set all the corn on fire, and he caused all the trees and vineyards to be cut down [Note in other translation this verse is number 27]

18 And the fear of them fell upon alit the inhabitants of the land.

[Note; verse 18 is verse 28, it reads differently in other translations. It reads: And the fear of them fell upon alit the inhabitants of the land. Also in Sidon and Tyre, and in the fence of Wekinite, Umana, Ashdoud, and Askloune, Judith 2:9 to 16.] [Note: Other translations' reference is: Judith 2:17 to 27.]

Judith 2:13 to 14 indicates that Ishmael's descendents dwelt over against the face of the desert, not in the desert. The people that dwelt in the desert or the Arabian Desert are the Arabs. Verse 14 indicates that the king passed over the Euphrates river and came into Mesopotamia, which is the location of Abraham's origin. It confirms that Ishmael's children dwelt around that region and not in the desert. It confirms that Ishmael was living with his father till he got married, it confirms that Abraham didn't dispatch Hagar and her son Ishmael as it is declared in Genesis 21:9 to 14. Did Abraham dispatch Hagar and her son Ishmael? was it done to exclude them from the Hebraic = (Abraham) family. Who did it and why?

Are the giants the descendants of Cain and Esau? For more information about the "peaceful" Torah, Jesus' gospel, the Promised Land, Ishmael, Isaac, Esau, the daughters of men, and the giants, refer to page "Giants" and page "Gog and Gog / Cain's race", and page "Ishmael / Isaac".

The Midianites aren't Hebrews because they were killing the Hebrews, which confirms that the Midianites are not Abraham's descendants through Keturah = (Cetura). [Note: Madian = (Midian) = (Median)]

2 - The following references from number 3 to 21 indicate names, which are similar to Keturah's children’s names. Those names exist before and after Keturah's era and aren’t related to her by any means.

---------------------------------

3 - Zamran = (Zimran) has no history in the bible.

---------------------------------

4 - Jecsan = (Jokshan) has no history in the bible.

---------------------------------

5 - Madan doesn’t have any record in the bible also

Madan = (Medan) doesn’t have any record in the bible, however, it may refer to Medes and Iran = (Medes and Persia).

Daniel interprets the vision to king Baltasar, he said: 26 And this is the interpretation of the word. MANE: God hath numbered thy kingdom, and hath finished it. 27 THECEL: thou art weighed in the balance, and art found wanting. 28 PHARES: thy kingdom is divided, and is given to the Medes and Persians, Daniel 5:26 to 28.

According to the prophecy of Daniel, the Iranians are in harmony with the Medes. Who are the Medes? Daniel interpreted the dream, said: the Medes shall take the kingdom, Daniel 5:26, and the Median king Darius in Daniel 5:26 to 31 took the kingdom.

It is proven biblically that the word Medes is the plural of Mede, and the word Mede is written in certain translations as Median in Daniel 5:31. The passage reads: [31 And Darius the Mede = (Median) succeeded to the kingdom, being threescore and two years old, Daniel 5:31.]

The word Midian is mentioned in the book of Exodus where Moses landed after he fled from Egypt. The passage reads: 15 And Pharao = (Pharaoh) heard of this word and sought to kill Moses: but he fled from his sight, and abode in the land of Madian = (Midian), and he sat down by a well, Exodus 2:15.

The passage in Ezra 4:1 to 7 confirms the correlation between Iran = (Persian) and its King Darius, the son of Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) of the Medes' offspring. During Cyrus king, the Persians confirm that the Medes are in accord with the Hebrews during that era, Ezra 4:1 to 7. However, does this passage confirm the Midian who Moses took his wife from are the same people that are with the Persians = (Iranians)? The Passage in (Daniel 5:31) indicates that the king Darius is a Median, which means from the Medes. Nevertheless, the word Median is not the same as Midian. We can't be sure till it is proven biblically with accurate translations. The king Darius helped the Jews to build the temple of God in Jerusalem, which give us a sign that the origin of the Medes probably from the Median land. However, history tells us differentially, it says that the Persians = (Iranians) and the Medes are the enemies of the Jews.

The word Midian is mentioned many times in different spellings in the bible, which confuse our interpretations to the scriptures. The Midian in Exodus is not the same as the Median in (Daniel 5:31), and the Medes is the plural of Midian. However, the people that dwelt in the Midian land north of Sinai Desert are not the same as the Medes that are with the Persians = (Iranians).

[Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)] [PHARES = (Phares) = (Phiris) = (Firiss) = (Persians) = (Iranians)]

6 - Midians and the Arabs' origin

Madian = (Midian) in the bible

The Lord had delivered the children of Israel to the Midian-ites, which confirms that the Midian-ites have nothing to do with Abraham and Keturah's offspring "the Midian". The passage reads: And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the Lord: and he delivered them into the hand of Madian = (Midian) seven years, Judges 6:1. However, how Moses could marry a Midian woman if the Midian are the Hebrews' enemies. 

Moses married a woman from the Midian land, then, the bible tells us that the children of Israel attacked the Midian. How Moses could take a woman from the Midian and they became enemies. Are there two kinds of Midian?

After the children of Israel overwhelmed the Midian land, they took their women and elderly captives. Moses permitted his commander to kill the female prisoners that are not virgins, the elderly, and the male children also because they followed Balaam's doctrines and transgressed God. However, he commanded them to keep thirty two thousands virgins girls for the Hebrew men. For sure, those virgins became their wives, and concubines, Numbers 31:35.  [Note: Madian = (Midian) = (Median)]

After Moses fled from Pharaoh, he left Egypt and dwelt in the land of Median = (Midian). It reads: [And Pharao = (Pharaoh) heard of this word and sought to kill Moses: but he fled from his sight, and abode in the land of Madian = (Midian), and he sat down by a well], Exodus 2:15.

Moses' first wife is a stranger from the Median = (Median), Exodus 2:21. Are the Medians = (Midians) = (Midianites) from Abraham's third Wife Cetura = (Keturah)?

Moses slew the prince of the Midian. If Moses slew the prince of the Midian, it means the Midians are the enemies. If the Midians are enemies, how Moses married his first wife from them. We aren't sure if there were two kinds of Midians during Moses' era or the Midians became enemies afterward. The passage reads: 21 And all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdoms of Sehon king of the Amorrhites = (Amorites), that reigned in Hesebon, whom Moses slew with the princes of Madian = (Midian): Hevi, and Recem, and Sur = (Shur) and Hur, and Rebe, dukes of Sehon inhabitants of the land,  Joshua 13:21. [Note: Madian = (Midian)]

Moses' wife's father "father in law" was the priest of the Midian = (Median), we don't know what kind of god the priest was worshipping because during that era Moses didn't receive God's Law concerning Godly priests. It reads: [Now Moses fed the sheep of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Madian = (Midian): and he drove the flock to the inner parts of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, Horeb,] Exodus 3:1. [Note: Madian = (Midian)]

The third son of Abraham through his third wife Keturah = (Cetura) was Madan = (Medan), and Madian = (Midian). Are they the Midians that Moses took his wife form? Moses' second wife was Ethiopian. Did Moses marry from the Midians? If the Arabs are not Ishmael's and are not of Keturah = (Cetura)'s descendants, where the Arabs came from? If the Arabs are Midians, WHY they were named Arabs? The Arabs are Arabs and the Midians are Midians. [Note: the word “Media” may refer to “Midian” or “Medes”]

If the Arabs are Cetura's = (Keturah) descendants, it means they are Hebrews through Abraham as well. However, there are no historic or biblical evidences to confirm the Arabs are Ishmael's descendants. Why God chose Isaac to be the son of the promise, excluding Ishmael.

The passage reads: 18 And he said to God: O that Ismael = (Ishmael) may live before thee. 19 And God said to Abraham: Sara = (Sarah) thy wife shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name Isaac, and I will establish my covenant with him for a perpetual covenant, and with his seed after him. 20 And as for Ismael = (Ishmael) I have also heard thee. Behold, I will bless him, and increase, and multiply him exceedingly: he shall beget twelve chiefs, and I will make him a great nation. 21 But my covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sera shall bring forth to thee at this time in the next year. 22 And when he had left oil speaking with him, God went up from Abraham, Genesis 17:18 to 22. [Note: Ismahel = (Ishmael) = (Ismael) = (Ismail)]

Why God had established his covenant with Isaac and blessed Ishmael?

Isaac's son, Jacob and his descendants become the only successors, excluding Ishmael. What had happened to Ishmael's twelve sons that God blessed and promised to make them great nations?

Are the giants the descendants of Cain and Esau? For more information about the "peaceful" Torah, Jesus' gospel, the Promised Land, Ishmael, Isaac, Esau, the daughters of men, and the giants, refer to page "Giants" and page "Gog and Gog / Cain's race", and page "Ishmael / Isaac".

God didn't prophecy about the twelve sons of Jacob in the bible. However, God prophesied to Abraham about Ishmael's twelve chiefs, which are the twelve tribes of Israel. If God established His covenant with Isaac why Jacob's sons had to be the twelve tribes of Israel?  

Biblically, God promised Abraham to bless all his descendants and to multiply them as the stars of heaven, Genesis 15:5. Through God's promise, all Abraham's descendants from all his wives including his concubines are considered Hebrews and God's chosen people. WHY GOD STATED HIS COVENANT WITH ISAAC ONLY. Then, the promised was transferred to Isaac's second born Jacob instead the first born Esau. Why Jacob's descendants are the only chosen people, excluding Ishmael's and Esau's descendants?

The passage reads in Exodus: And Moses swore that he would dwell with "him" [the priest of the Midians]. And he took Sephora his daughter as wife, Exodus 2:21.

The passage reads in Judges: And the children of the Cinite = (Kenites), the kinsman = (father in law) of Moses, went up from the city of palms, with the children of Juda = (Judah) into the wilderness of his lot, which is at the south side of Arad, and they dwelt with him, Judges 1:16.

[Note: the word Cinite is used in moslem = (muslim) religion of Islam. The moslem = (muslim) religion is divided in three major divisions. The first is Cinite = sene = (sunnis) moslem = (muslim) of Saudi Arabia, the second is shae = (shiites) moslem = (muslim) of Iran, the third is Allawee moslem = (muslim) of Syria. It is possible that the name Sinite moslems = (muslims) of Saudi Arabia is named according to Moses' father in law origin, which are the children of Cinite. The Cinite = (Kenites) are the Midians, refer to Judges 1:16 and Exodus 2:15 to 22, in other passages in the bible Judges chapter 6 and 8: and in the book of Numbers 25:32 the Midianites became enemies with the Hebrews.]

The Midians and the Amalek = (Amalekites) = (giants) attacked the Hebrews, which confirms that the Midians aren’t of Abraham’s descendants through Keturah. The book of Judges tells us that the Midianites and the Amalekites, and the children of the east came against the children of Israel, which indicate that the Midianites have nothing to do with Keturah's offspring. The Midianites and the Amalekites scattered the Jews from Israel completely, Judges 6:3 to 4, Judges 7:12.

The passage reads: But Madian = (Midian) and Amalec = (Amalek), and all the eastern people lay scattered in the valley, as a multitude of locusts: their camels also were innumerable as the sand that lieth on the sea shore, Judges 7:12.

Are the giants the descendants of Cain and Esau? For more information about the "peaceful" Torah, Jesus' gospel, the Promised Land, Ishmael, Isaac, Esau, the daughters of men, and the giants, refer to page "Giants" and page "Gog and Gog / Cain's race", and page "Ishmael / Isaac".

The Midians were living near the fountain of Harad = (Harod), Judges 7:1. The Arabs of the Arabian Desert aren't the Midianites because they were living near the hill of Moreh in the valley. There is no huge mountain in the desert of Arabia and there is no valley that holds thousands of Midianites people.

The passage reads: [1 Then Jerobaal = (Jerubbaal), who is the same as Gedeon = (Gideon), rising up early and all the people with him, came to the fountain that is called Harad = (Harod). Now the camp of Madian = (Midian) was in the valley on the north side of the high hill = (hill of Moreh), Judges 7:1.

[Note: in some translation the word "high hill" is "the hill of Moreh".] [Note: Madian = (Midian) = (Median)] Note: the Midians are like the Ishmaelite, they were jewelry.

The passage reads: [23 And he said to them: I will not rule over you, neither shall my son rule over you, but the Lord shall rule over you. 24 And he said to them: I desire one request of you: Give me the earlets of your spoils because the Medianite are like the Ismaelites = (Ishmaelite), they were accustomed to wear golden earlets. [earlets =rings or jewelry]". 25 They answered: We will give them most willingly. And spreading a mantle on the ground, they cast upon it the earlets of the spoils.

26 And the weight of the earlets that he requested, was a thousand seven hundred Sicles = (Shekels) of gold, besides the ornaments, and jewels, and purple raiment which the kings of Madian = (Midians) were went to use, and besides the golden chains that were about the camels' necks; Judges 8:23 to 26.]

If the Midianites use to wear gold as the Ishmaelite, it doesn't mean that they are related to the same people.

It means the Midianites had this custom as the Ishmaelite, it doesn't mean that they are related or partners. It is impossible for Keturah’s sons the Midian to attack their own people the Hebrews. It may refer to different Midian.

The bible indicates: the gentiles including the Midianites shall convert to God Yahweh, and the gold of Sheba shall be brought to Jerusalem. It shall be fulfilled during the peaceful time on earth during the reign of the Messiah Jesus on earth, Isaiah 60:6. It means the Midians and Sheba don’t have any Hebraic background. And it means that the Midianites aren’t of Keturah’s offspring.

The Arabs' origin:

The book of Ezekiel 27:8 to 21 clarifies about many countries that were dealing with Tyre. Modern Tyre is a city south of Lebanon. In this passage, the word “Arabian” is mentioned separately. It means the Arabs are separate nation from Egypt, Saba, Jabal, Lebanon, Libya, Persia = (Iran), and Tarshish. Greece, Thubal = (Tubal) = (Kabul), and Mosoch = (Meshech), the house of Thogorma = (Togarmah) the men of Dedan, the Syrian, Juda = (Judah) and the land of Israel, Damascus, Dan, Greece, Mosel, and the men of Dedan were dealing with Tyre also. [Note: Tubal = (Thubal) = (Kabul) is a city in modern Afghanistan]

It means the Arabs are not of Abraham, Ishmael, and not even of Saba = (Sheba) the grandchildren of Keturah because the word “Arabs and Arabians” is mentioned separately from those nations.

The following passage (Ezekiel 27:10 to 21) confirms Arabia or the Arabians weren’t the Arabs of Syria Lebanon and Egypt during Moses’ era.

The passage reads: [3 And say to Tyre that dwelleth at the entry of the sea, being the mart of the people for many islands: Thus saith the Lord God: O Tyre, thou hast said: I am of perfect beauty,

4 And situate in the heart of the sea. Thy neighbours, that built thee, have perfected thy beauty:

5 With fir trees of Sanir they have built thee with all sea planks: they have taken cedars from Libanus = (Lebanon) to make thee masts.

6 They have cut thy oars out of the oaks of Basan: and they have made thee benches of Indian ivory and cabins with things brought from the islands of Italy.

7 Fine broidered linen from Egypt was woven for thy sail, to be spread on thy mast: blue and purple from the islands of Elisa, were made thy covering.

8 The inhabitants of Sidon = (Zidon), and the Aradians were thy rowers : thy wise men, O Tyre, were thy pilots.

[Note: in some translation the word "Aradians" is "Arvad".]

9 The ancients of Gebal, and the wise men thereof furnished mariners for the service of thy various furniture: all the ships of the sea, and their mariners were thy factors.

10 The Persians, and Lydians, and the Libyans = (Libya) were thy soldiers in thy army: they hung up the buckler and the helmet in thee for thy ornament. [Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)]

11 The men of Arad were with thy army upon thy walls round about: the Pygmeans also that were in thy towers, hung up their quivers on thy walls round about: they perfected thy beauty.

12 Tarshish was thy merchants supplied thy fairs with a multitude of all kinds of riches, with silver, iron, tin, and lead. They traded in thy fair.

13 Greece, Thubal = (Tubal) = (Kabul), and Mosoch = (Meshech), they were thy merchants: they brought to thy people slaves and vessels of brass. [Note: Tubal = (Thubal) = (Kabul) is modern Afghanistan]

14 From the house of Thogorma = (Togarmah) they brought horses, and horsemen, and mules to thy market.

15 The men of Dedan = (Dadan) were thy merchants: many islands were the traffic of thy hand, they exchanged for thy price teeth of ivory and ebony.

16 The Syrian was thy merchant: by reason of the multitude of thy works, they set forth precious stones, and purple, and broidered works, and fine linen, and silk, and chodchod in thy market.

17 Juda = (Judah) and the land of Israel, they were thy merchants with the best corn: they set forth balm, and honey, and oil, and rosin in thy fairs.

18 The men of Damascus were thy merchants in the multitude of thy works, in the multitude of divers riches, in rich wine, in wool of the best color.

19 Dan, and Greece, and Mosel have set forth in thy marts wrought iron: stacte, and calamus were in thy market.

20 The men of Dedan = (Dadan) were thy merchants in tapestry for seats.

21 Arabia, and all the princes of Cedar, they were the merchants of thy hand: thy merchants came to thee with lambs, and rants, and kids, Ezekiel 27:10 to 21.]

It reads: But Madian = (Midian) and Amalec = (Amalek), and all the eastern people lay scattered in the valley, as a multitude of locusts: their camels also were innumerable as the sand that lies on the sea shore, Judges 7:12. [Note: the word Amalec = (Amalek) means giant, for more information about the giants, refer to page "Giants".]

The Madian = (Midian) is mentioned in many scriptures in the bible. Example:  After Moses fled from Pharaoh, he left Egypt and dwelt in the land of Median = (Midian). It reads: [And Pharao = (Pharaoh) heard of this word and sought to kill Moses: but he fled from his sight, and abode in the land of Median = (Midian), and he sat down by a well], Exodus 2:15.

It reads: And all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdoms of Sehon king of the Amorrhites = (Amorites), that reigned in Hesebon, whom Moses slew with the princes of Madian = (Midian): Hevi, and Recem, and Sur = (Shur) and Hur, and Rebe, dukes of Sehon inhabitants of the land, Joshua 13:21. In this passage, Moses slew the princes of the Midian, however, Moses married a Midian woman when he fled from Egypt, Exodus 2:15. There are many years between the two events. We aren't sure if the author meant about the same Midian. It is possible that the Hebrews became enemies with the Midian or there were two different tribes of Midian.

It reads: And Moses fled upon this word, and was a stranger in the land of Madian = (Midian), where he begot two sons, Acts 7:29.

It reads: The Madan = (Medan) are not the Madian = (Midian) or [the Midianites]. The Midianite had wars with the Hebrews, which confirms that the Midianites are not Abraham's descendants through Keturah = (Cetura). [Note: Madian = (Midian) = (Median)]

There is no biblical evidence of Keturah's offspring. The names of her sons existed away before or after Keturah's era, without indication if they are related to Keturah's offspring. The queen of Sheba and the Midians are the only names that existed during Noah’s era and after Moses’ era also. However, it doesn’t have any relation with Keturah’s descendants.

The name Midian and Saba = (Sheba), and Dadan are copied from the previous history of Noah's offspring and reclaimed as Keturah's descendants.

Why the names  Zamran, Jecsan, Madan, Jesboc, Latusim, and Loomin have no record in the bible? The rest of the names that the author claims of Keturah's offspring in the bible have no relation with Keturah by any means.

Are the giants the descendants of Cain and Esau? For more information about the "peaceful" Torah, Jesus' gospel, the Promised Land, Ishmael, Isaac, Esau, the daughters of men, and the giants, refer to page "Giants" and page "Gog and Gog / Cain's race", and page "Ishmael / Isaac".

Why there are peaceful and violent commandments in the Torah? For more information, refer to page "Ishmael and Isaac".

It is not understood why the Author claimed Abraham’s third wife Keturah? From all the names that are mentioned as Keturah’s offspring that have biblical history through generations are Sheba and Midian. However, Sheba and Midian are recognized in the bible before Keturah’s era.

The following passage, helps us to identify the location of Syria, Assyria, Cilicia, Melothus, Tarshish, the children of Ishmael = (Ishmaelite), Mesopotamia, and the Median land.

It confirms that the Midians are not Arabs, Assyrians, Syrians, Tarshish, and not Ishmaelite.

The Ishmaelite were living over against the face of the desert, not in the desert, Judith 2:9 to 16. The Arabs were and still living in the desert, till this day.

The passage reads: 9 He appointed corn to be prepared out of all Syria in his passage.

10 But the gold and the silver, he took out of the king's house in great abundance.

11 And he went forth, him and all the army, with the chariots, and horsemen, and archers, who covered the face of the earth, like locusts.

12 And when he had passed through the borders of the Assyrians, he came to the great mountains of Ange, which are on the left of Cilicia: and he went up to all their castles, and took all the strong places.

13 And he took by assault the renowned city of Melothus, and pillaged all the children of Tharsis = (Tarshish), and the children of Ismahel = (Ishmael) = (Ismael) = (Ismail), who were over against the face of the desert, and on the south of the land of Cellon.

14 And he passed over the Euphrates and came into Mesopotamia: and he forced all the stately cities that were there, from the torrent of Mambre, till one comes to the sea:

15 And he took the borders thereof from Cilicia to the coasts of Japheth, which are towards the south.

16 And he carried away all the children of Madian = (Midian), and stripped them of all their riches, and all that resisted him he slew with the edge of the sword. 17 And after these things, he went down into the plains of Damascus in the days of the harvest, and he set all the corn on fire, and he caused all the trees and vineyards to be cut down, Judith 2:9 to 17. [Note: other translations indicates Judith 2:17 to 27 for the same passage.]

Judith 2:13 to 14 indicates: Ishmael's descendants dwelt over against the face of the desert, not in the desert. The people that dwelt in the desert are Arabs. Verse 14 indicates that the king passed over the Euphrates River and came into Mesopotamia, which is the location of Abraham's origin. It confirms that Ishmael's children dwelt around that region and not in the desert. It confirms that Ishmael was living with his father till he got married; it confirms also that Abraham didn't dispatch Hagar and her son Ishmael as it is declared in Genesis 21:9 to 14.

Did Abraham dispatch Hagar and her son Ishmael to exclude them from the Hebraic = (Abraham) family.

It reads: I saw the tents of Ethiopia for their iniquity, the curtains of the land of Madian = (Midian) shall be troubled, Habakkouk 3:7.

It reads: 1 and the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the Lord: and he delivered them into the hand of Madian = (Midian) seven years. 2 And they were grievously oppressed by them. And they made themselves dens and eaves = (caves) in the mountains, and strong holds to resist. 3 And when Israel had sown, Madian = (Midian) and Amalec = (Amalek) = (giants), and the rest of the eastern nations came up: 4 And pitching their tents among them, wasted all things as they were in the blade even to the entrance of Gaza: and they left nothing at all in Israel for sustenance of life, nor sheep, nor oxen, nor asses, Judge 6:1 to 4.

[Note: the word Rapha, Raphaim, Rephaim, Arapha,  Arafa, Amalec, and Amalek means giant.

It reads: He answered and said: I beseech thee, my lord, wherewith shall I deliver Israel? Behold my family is the meanest in Manasses = (Manasseh), and I am the least in my father's house. 16 And the Lord said to him: I will be with thee: and thou shalt cut off Madian = (Midian) as one man, Judges 6:15 to 16.

The Midians and Amalek = (Amalekites) = (giants) attacked the Hebrews, which confirms that the Midians or the Midianite aren’t of Abraham’s descendants through Keturah, Judges 6:33.

It is impossible for Keturah’s son "Midian" to attack his own people "the Hebrews". Therefore, the Midianite are not Keturah’s offspring.

The Midianites were in harmony with the Amalekites to fight the Jews. It reads: Now all Madian = (Midian), and Amalec = (Amalek) = (Amalekites), and the eastern people were gathered together, and passing over the Jordan, camped in the valley of Jezrael, Judges 6:33. [Note: the Amalekites means giants, which are the enemies of the Jews. For more information about the giants, refer to page "Giants".

It reads: Then Jerobaal = (Jerubbaal), who is the same as Gedeon = (Gideon), rising up early and all the people with him, came to the fountain that is called Harad = (Harod). Now the camp of Madian = (Midian) was in the valley on the north side of the high hill = (hill of Moreh), Judge 7:1.

[Note: in some translation the word "high hill" is "the hill of Moreh".] [Note: Madian = (Midian) = (Median)]

It reads: And all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdoms of Sehon king of the Amorrhites = (Amorites), that reigned in Hesebon, whom Moses slew with the princes of Madian = (Midian): Hevi, and Recem, and Sur = (Shur) and Hur, and Rebe, dukes of Sehon inhabitants of the land, Joshua 13:21. [Note: Moses slew the princes of Madian, which confirms that the Midians whom Moses took his wife from aren’t the same Madians.]

It reads: Then Adad fled, he and certain Edomites, of his father's servants with him, to go into Egypt: and Adad was then a little boy. 18 And they arose out of Madian = (Midian), and came into Pharan, and they took men with them from Pharan, and went into Egypt to Pharao = (Pharaoh) the king of Egypt: who gave him a house, and appointed him victuals, and assigned him land. 19 And Adad found great favour before Pharao = (Pharaoh), insomuch that he gave him to wife, the own sister of his wife Taphnes the queen, First kings 11:17 to 19. [Note: the word "Idumea" refers to "Edom" the "Edomites", the inhabitants of mount Seir, which are Esau's descendants]

It reads: Now Moses fed the sheep of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Madian = (Midian): and he drove the flock to the inner parts of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, Horeb.2 And the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he saw that the bush was on fire and was not burnt, Exodus 3:1 to 2.

It reads: And the Lord said to Moses, in Madian = (Midian): Go, and return into Egypt: for they are all dead that sought thy life, Exodus 4:19.

It reads: And when Jethro the priest of Madian = (Midian), the kinsman of Moses, had heard all the things that God had done to Moses, and to Israel his people, and that the Lord had brought forth Israel out of Egypt, 2 He took Sephora the wife of Moses whom he had sent back: 3 And her two sons, of whom one was called Gersam = (Gersom) = (Gershom), his father saying: I have been a stranger in a foreign country, Exodus 18:1 to 3.

It reads: And Moses said to Hobab the son of Raguel the Madianite = (Midianite), his kinsman: We are going towards the place which the Lord will give us: come with us, that we may do thee good : for the Lord hath promised good things to Israel. 30 But he answered him: I will not go with thee, but I will return to my country, wherein I was born, Numbers 10:29 to 30.

It reads:  He said to the elders of Madian = (Midian): So will this people destroy all that dwell in our borders, as the ox is wont to eat the grass to the very roots. Now he was at that time king in Moab, Numbers 22:4.

It reads: And behold one of the children of Israel went in before his brethren to a harlot of Madian = (Midian), in the sight of Moses, and of all the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle, Numbers 25:6.

It reads: And the covenant of the priesthood for ever shall be both to him and his seed, because he hath been zealous for his God, and hath made atonement for the wickedness of the children of Israel. 14 And the name of the Israelite, was slain with the woman of Madian = (Midian), was Zambri the son of Salu, a prince the kindred and tribe of Simeon. 15 And the Madianite = (Midianite) woman, that was slain with him, was called Cozbi the daughter of Sur, a most noble prince among the Madianites. 16 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 17 Let the Madianites find you enemies, and slay you them: 18 Because they also have acted like enemies against you, and have guilefully deceived you by the idol Phogor, and Cozbi their sister, a daughter of a prince of Madian = (Midian), who was slain in the day the plague for the sacrilege of Phogor, Numbers 25:13 to 18.

The following passage indicates: Balaam the son of Beer was with the Midianites.

It reads: 1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 2 Revenge first the children of Israel on the Madianites, and so thou shalt be gathered to thy people. 3 And Moses forthwith said: Arm of you men to fight, who may take the revenge of the Lord on the Madianites. 4 Let a thousand men be chosen out of every tribe of Israel to be sent to the war. 5 And they gave a thousand of every tribe, that is to say, twelve thousand men well appointed for battle. 6 And Moses sent them with Phinees the son of Eleazar the priest, and he delivered to him the holy vessels, and the trumpets to sound. 7 And when they had fought against the Madianites and had overcome them, they slew all the men. 8 And their kings Evi, and Recem, and Sur = (Shur), and Hur, and Rebe, five princes of the nation: Balaam also the son of Beer they killed with the sword, Number 31:1 to 7.

It reads: 26 And the Lord of hosts shall raise up a scourge against him, according to the slaughter of Madian = (Midian) in the rock of Oreb, and his rod over the sea, and he shall lift it up in the way of Egypt, Isaiah 10:26.

The following passage indicates that the people shall come from Midians, and Epha, and the gold from Sheba to Jerusalem to the name of the Lord. It leads us to the descendants of Keturah Sheba and Midian. However, it doesn’t prove so.

The passage indicates: the gentiles, the Midianites shall convert, and the gold of Sheba shall be brought to Jerusalem. It means those nations will convert to be of God’s people. It will happen during the peaceful time on earth, which will be fulfilled during the reign of the Messiah Jesus on earth. The passage in Isaiah 60:6 indicates: the Midians and Sheba don’t have any Hebraic background. It means they aren’t of Keturah’s offspring.

It reads: “Rise up Jerusalem” 5 Then shall thou see, and abound, and thy heart shall wonder and be enlarged, when the multitude of the sea shall be converted to thee, the. strength of the Gentiles shall come to thee.6 The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Madian = (Midian) and Epha = (Ephah): all they from Saba = (Sheba) shall come, bringing gold and frankincense: and shewing forth praise to the Lord, Isaiah 60:6.

Daniel interprets the vision to king Baltasar, it reads: 26 and this is the interpretation of the word. MANE: God hath numbered thy kingdom, and hath finished it. 27 THECEL: thou art weighed in the balance, and art found wanting. 28 PHARES: thy kingdom is divided, and is given to the Medes and Persians, Daniel 5:26 to 28.

[Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)]

Passages about Midians in the book of Daniel

Other passages read: Now, therefore, O king, confirm the sentence, and sign the decree: that what is decreed by the Medes and Persians may not be altered, nor any man be allowed to transgress it, Daniel 6:8.

It reads: And they came and spoke to the king concerning the edict: O king, hast thou not decreed, that every man that should make a request to any of the gods, or men, for thirty days, but to thyself, O king, should be cast into the den of the lions? And the king answered them, saying: The word is true according to the decree of the Medes and Persians, which it is not lawful to violate, Daniel 6:12.

It reads: But those mer. perceiving the king's design, said to him: Know thou, O king, that the law of the Medes and Persians is, that no decree which the king hath made, may be altered, Daniel 6:15. This passage confirms that the law of the Medes and the Persian is the same. They could be one nation or united nations. The word "Medes and Persia" is mentioned many times in the bible as one authority.

It reads: 19 And he said to me: I will show thee what things are to come to pass in the end of the malediction: for the time hath its end. 20 The ram, which thou sawest with horns, is the king of the Medes and Persians = (Persia) = (Iran) 21 And the he goat, is the king of the Greek= (Grecia) = (Greece), and the great horn that was between his eyes, the same is the first king. 22 But whereas when that was broken, there arose up four for it: four kings shall rise up of his nation, but not with his strength, Daniel 8:19 to 22.

It reads: 1 In the first year of Darius the son of Assuerus = (Ahasuerus) of the seed of the Medes, who reigned over the kingdom of the Chaldeans = (Chaldaeans) = (the kingdom of Babylon), Daniel 9:1.

It reads: 20 And he said: Dost thou know wherefore I am come to thee? and now I will return, to fight against the prince of the Persians. When I went forth, there appeared the prince of the Greeks = (Grecias) = (Greece) coming. 21 But I will tell thee what is set down in the scripture of truth: and none is my helper in all these things, but Michael your prince, Daniel 10:20 to 21. [Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)]

It reads: 2 And now I will shew thee the truth. Behold there shall stand yet three kings in Persia, and the fourth shall be enriched exceedingly above them all: and when he shall be grown mighty by his riches, he shall stir up all against the kingdom of Greece = (Greeks) = (Grecia). 3 But there shall rise up a strong king, and shall rule with great power: and he shall do what he pleaseth. 4 And when he shall come to his height, his kingdom shall be broken, and it shall be divided towards the four winds of the heaven: but not to his posterity, nor according to his power with which he ruled. For his kingdom shall be rent in pieces, even for strangers, beside these, Daniel 11:2 to 4.

8 - Sue = (Shuah) in the book of Genesis

It reads: At that time Juda = (Judah) went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Odollamite, named Hiras. And he saw there the daughter of a man of Chanaan = (Canaan), called Sue = (Shuah): and taking her to wife, he went in unto her, Genesis 38:1 to 2.

It reads: And after many days were past, the daughter of Sue = (Shuah) the wife of Juda = (Judah) died: and when he had taken comfort after his mourning, he went up to Thamnas, to the shearers of his sheep, he and Hiras the Odollamite the shepherd of his flock, Genesis 38:12.

It reads: The sons of Juda = (Judah): Her, Onan and Sela. These three were born to him of the Chanaanites = (Canaanites) the daughter of Sue = (Shuah). And Her the firstborn of Juda = (Judah), was wicked in the sight of the Lord, and he slew him, First Chronicles 2:3.

It reads: And Saaph the father of Madmena beget Sue = (Shuah) the father of Machbena, and the father of Gabaa = (Gibeah). And the daughter of Caleb was Achsa, First Chronicles 2:49.

It reads: The sons of Supha: Sue = (Shuah), Hernapher, and Sual, and Beri, and Jamra, First Chronicles 7:36.

Sue = (Shuah) was during Judah' era, which is not related to Keturah's offspring.

9 - Sheba in the bible

Sheba in the book of Genesis:

The son of Noah Ham begot cush and cush begot Sheba

It reads: 5 By these were divided the islands of the Gentiles in their lands, every one according to his tongue and their families in their nations. 6 And the sons of Cham = (Ham): Chus = (Cush), and Mesram = (Mizraim), and Phuth, and Chanaan = (Canaan). 7 And the sons of Chus = (Cush): Saba = (Sheba)  and Hevila = (Havilah), and Sabatha, and Regma, and Sabatacha. The sons of Regma: Saba = (Sheba)  and Dadan. 8 Now Chus = (Cush) begot Nemrod = (Nimrod): he began to be mighty on earth. 9 And he was a stout hunter before the Lord. Hence came a proverb: Even as Nemrod = (Nimrod) the stout hunter before the Lord, Genesis 10:5 to 9.

These are the children of Cham = (Ham) the son of Noah:

Sheba = (Saba) is mentioned as the sons of Chus = (Cush): Saba = (Sheba) and Hevila = (Havilah), and Sabatha, and Regma, and Sabatacha. The sons of Regma: Saba = (Sheba)  and Dadan.  8 Now Chus = (Cush) begot Nemrod = (Nimrod). the son of Noah Ham begot cush and cush begot Sheba, Genesis 10:7 to 8.

The sons of Shem are Ebal = (Obal), and Abimael, and Saba = (Sheba) also, two of Noah's sons had sons, which were called Sheba, Genesis 10:28.

Saba = (Sheba) is mentioned in First and second Chronicles and first kings. The book of Psalms mentions about Sheba = (Saba) bring gifts and gold of Sheba = (Saba) be given to the Lord!, Psalms 72:10 to 11.

It reads: The sons of Ham from Chus = (Cush): Saba = (Sheba), and Hevila = (Havilah), Sabatha, and Regma, and Sabathaca. And the sons of Regma: Saba = (Sheba), and Dadan. 10 Now Chus = (Cush) begot Nemrod = (Nimrod): he began to be mighty upon earth. 11 But Mesraim begot Ludim, and Anamim, and Laabim, and Nephtuim, 12 Phetrusim also, and Casluim: from whom came the Philistines = (Philistim) = (Palestine) = (Philistine), and Caphtorim. 13 And Chanaan = (Canaan), Genesis 10:6, First Chronicles 1:9.

It reads: The burden of Tyre and its king was spoken by Ezekiel. 22 The sellers of Saba = (Sheba), and Reema, they were thy merchants: with all the best spices, and precious stones, and gold, which they set forth in thy market. 23 Haran, and Chene, and Eden were thy merchants; Saba = (Sheba), Assur (Asshur), and Chelmad sold to thee, Ezekiel 27:22 to 23.

It reads: 13 Saba = (Sheba), and Dedan, and the merchants of Tharsis = (Tarshish), and all the lions thereof shall say to thee: Art thou come to take spoils? behold, thou hast gathered thy multitude to take a prey, to take silver, and gold, and to carry away goods and substance, and to take rich spoils, Ezekiel 38:13.

Sheba in the book First kings:

It reads: 1 And the queen of Saba = (Sheba), having; heard of the fame of Solomon in the name of the Lord, came to try him with hard questions. 2 And entering into Jerusalem with a great train, and riches, and camels that carried spices, and an immense quantity of gold, and precious stones, she came to king Solomon, and spoke to him all that she had in her heart, first kings 10:1 to 2.

Sheba in the book of First Chronicles

It reads: And the sons of Chus = (Cush): Saba = (Sheba), and Hevila = (Havilah), Sabatha, and Regma, and Sabathaca. And the sons of Regma: Saba = (Sheba), and Dadan, First Chronicles 1:9.

Sheba in the book of Second Chronicles:

It reads: And when the queen of Saba = (Sheba) heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to try him with hard questions at Jerusalem, with great riches, and camels, which carried spices, and abundance of gold, and precious stones. And when she was come to Solomon, she proposed to him all that was in her heart, Second Chronicles 9:1.

Sheba in the book of Job:

It reads: 19 Consider the paths of Thema, the ways of Saba = (Sheba), and wait a little while. 20 They are confounded, because I have hoped: they are come also even unto me, and are covered with shame, Job 6:19.

Sheba in the book of Jeremiah:

It reads: To what purpose do you bring me frankincense from Saba = (Sheba), and the sweet smelling cane from a far country? your holocausts are not acceptable, nor are your sacrifices pleasing to me, Jeremiah 6:20.

Sheba in the book of Ezekiel:

The burden of Tyre and its king was spoken by Ezekiel. It reads: 22 the sellers of Saba = (Sheba), and Reema, they were thy merchants: with all the best spices, and precious stones, and gold, which they set forth in thy market. 23 Haran, and Chene, and Eden were thy merchants; Saba = (Sheba), Assur (Asshur), and Chelmad sold to thee, Ezekiel 27:22 to 23.

It reads: Saba = (Sheba), and Dedan, and the merchants of Tharsis = (Tarshish), and all the lions thereof shall say to thee: Art thou come to take spoils? Behold, thou hast gathered thy multitude to take a prey, to take silver, and gold, and to carry away goods and substance, and to take rich spoils, Ezekiel 38:13.

Sheba in the book of First kings:

It reads: 1 And the queen of Saba = (Sheba), having; heard of the fame of Solomon in the name of the Lord, came to try him with hard questions. 2 And entering into Jerusalem with a great train, and riches, and camels that carried spices, and an immense quantity of gold, and precious stones, she came to king Solomon, and spoke to him all that she had in her heart, First kings 10:1 to 2.

Sheba in the book of Isaiah:

God spoke to Jacob: It reads: For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Savior: I have given Egypt for thy atonement, Ethiopia and Saba = (Sheba) for thee, Isaiah 43:3.

It reads: The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Madian = (Midian) and Epha: all they from Saba = (Sheba) shall come, bringing gold and frankincense: and showing forth praise to the Lord, Isaiah 60:6.

Sheba in the book of Psalms:

The following passages indicate the names of Keturah's sons. Most of those names existed before Keturah's era. The names that are existed after Keturah's era aren't related to Keturah by any means.

Example: The word Saba in Psalms 72:10 to 11; Solomon describes the kings of the earth brings gift to God.

It reads: [10] May the kings of Tarshish = (Tharsis) and of the isles render him tribute, may the kings of Sheba = (Saba) and Seba bring gifts! [11] May all kings fall down before him, all nations serve him! [15] Long may he live, may gold of Sheba = (Saba) be given to him, Psalms 72:10 to 11.

It reads: These are the sons of Ham: 9 And the sons of Chus = (Cush): Saba = (Sheba), and Hevila = (Havilah), Sabatha, and Regma, and Sabathaca. And the sons of Regma: Saba = (Sheba), and Dadan. 10 Now Chus = (Cush) begot Nemrod = (Nimrod): he began to be mighty upon earth. 11 But Mesraim begot Ludim, and Anamim, and Laabim, and Nephtuim, 12 Phetrusim also, and Casluim: from whom came the Philistines = (Philistim) = (Palestine) = (Philistine), and Caphtorim. 13 And Chanaan = (Canaan) beget Sidon his firstborn, and the Hethite, 14 And the Jebusite, and the Amorrhite = (Amorite), and the Gergesite = (Girgasite) , 15 And the Hevite = (Hivites = (Hevites), and the Aracite = (Arkite), and the Sinite, And the Aradian = (Arvadite), and the Samarite = (Zemarite), and the Hamathite, First Chronicles 1:9 to 16.

---------------------------------

10 - Dedan:

Dedan the son of Keturah doesn’t have any history in the bible. This name is mentioned in Noah's offspring, which is before Keturah’s era.

Keturah’s son Dedan doesn’t have any biblical history. It is mentioned that the children of Dadan are Assurim = (Asshurim), and Latusim, and Loomin, Genesis 25:3.

Dadan’s name is mentioned in Noah’s seed, which is away before Keturah’s era. I find it abnormal that Dadan is mentioned in Genesis 25 only with his children Assurim = (Asshurim), and Latusim, and Loomin. Those names aren’t mentioned in other passages in the bible, which means that the other names of Keturah's children were invented also. It is possible that Abraham’s third wife Keturah didn’t exist.

The queen of Sheba wasn’t of Keturah’s offspring? Sheba was first mentioned as the offspring of Cham = (Ham) the son Noah. Cham = (Ham) begot Chus = (Cush), and then Chanaan = (Canaan), Saba = (Sheba), Dadan = (Dedan), and Chus = (Cush) begot Nemrod = (Nimrod), and then Babylon, Assur = (Asshur), and the Palestinians came from the same offspring. Keturah existed after that era, Genesis 10:8 to 14. [Note: the word “Nimrod” in Arabic means “rebellious”.]

The book of Ezekiel 27:8 to 21 clarifies about many countries that were dealing with Tyre. Modern Tyre is a city south of Lebanon. In this passage, the word “Arabian” is mentioned separately. It means the Arabs are separate nation from Egypt, Saba, Gabal, Lebanon, Libya, Persia = (Iran), and Tarshish. Greece, Thubal = (Tubal) = (Kabul), and Mosoch = (Meshech), the house of Thogorma = (Togarmah) the men of Dedan, the Syrian, Juda = (Judah) and the land of Israel, Damascus Dan, Greece, Mosel, and the men of Dedan were dealing with Tyre also. [Note: Tubal = (Thubal) = (Kabul) is a city in modern Afghanistan]

The following passage (Ezekiel 27:10 to 21) confirms that Arabia or the Arabians weren’t the inhabitants of Syria Lebanon and Egypt during Moses’ era. Therefore, the word Arabs is mentioned separately from those nations.

The passage reads: [3 And say to Tyre that dwelleth at the entry of the sea, being the mart of the people for many islands: Thus saith the Lord God: O Tyre, thou hast said: I am of perfect beauty,

4 And situate in the heart of the sea. Thy neighbours, that built thee, have perfected thy beauty:

5 With fir trees of Sanir they have built thee with all sea planks: they have taken cedars from Libanus = (Lebanon) to make thee masts.

6 They have cut thy oars out of the oaks of Basan: and they have made thee benches of Indian ivory and cabins with things brought from the islands of Italy.

7 Fine broidered linen from Egypt was woven for thy sail, to be spread on thy mast: blue and purple from the islands of Elisa, were made thy covering.

8 The inhabitants of Sidon = (Zidon), and the Aradians were thy rowers : thy wise men, O Tyre, were thy pilots.

[Note: in some translation the word "Aradians" is "Arvad".]

9 The ancients of Gebal, and the wise men thereof furnished mariners for the service of thy various furniture: all the ships of the sea, and their mariners were thy factors.

10 The Persians, and Lydians, and the Libyans = (Libya) were thy soldiers in thy army: they hung up the buckler and the helmet in thee for thy ornament. [Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)]

11 The men of Arad were with thy army upon thy walls round about: the Pygmeans also that were in thy towers, hung up their quivers on thy walls round about: they perfected thy beauty.

12 Tarshish was thy merchants supplied thy fairs with a multitude of all kinds of riches, with silver, iron, tin, and lead. They traded in thy fair.

13 Greece, Thubal = (Tubal) = (Kabul), and Mosoch = (Meshech), they were thy merchants: they brought to thy people slaves and vessels of brass. [Note: Tubal = (Thubal) = (Kabul) is modern Afghanistan]

14 From the house of Thogorma = (Togarmah) they brought horses, and horsemen, and mules to thy market.

15 The men of Dedan = (Dadan) were thy merchants: many islands were the traffic of thy hand, they exchanged for thy price teeth of ivory and ebony.

16 The Syrian was thy merchant: by reason of the multitude of thy works, they set forth precious stones, and purple, and broidered works, and fine linen, and silk, and chodchod in thy market.

17 Juda = (Judah) and the land of Israel, they were thy merchants with the best corn: they set forth balm, and honey, and oil, and rosin in thy fairs.

18 The men of Damascus were thy merchants in the multitude of thy works, in the multitude of divers riches, in rich wine, in wool of the best color.

19 Dan, and Greece, and Mosel have set forth in thy marts wrought iron: stacte, and calamus were in thy market.

20 The men of Dedan = (Dadan) were thy merchants in tapestry for seats.

21 Arabia, and all the princes of Cedar, they were the merchants of thy hand: thy merchants came to thee with lambs, and rants, and kids, Ezekiel 27:10 to 21.]

11 - Assurim = (Asshurim):

Noah’s son Shem begot Assur = (Asshur).

It reads: The sons of Sem = (Shem): Elam and Assur = (Asshur), and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram, Genesis 10:22.

One of Katurah’s sons is called Assurim = (Asshurim), Genesis 25:3. Assurim = (Asshurim) doesn’t have any record in the bible.

It reads: The sons of Sem = (Shem): Elam and Asur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram, and Hus, and Hul = (Hull), and Gether, and Mash, First Chronicles 1:17.

[Note: In some translation, Asur is Assur or Asshur ]

The passage reads: 8 the inhabitants of Sidon = (Zidon), and the Aradians = (Arvad) were thy rowers : thy wise men, O Tyre, were thy pilots. 9 The ancients of Gebal, and the wise men thereof furnished mariners for the service of thy various furniture: all the ships of the sea, and their mariners were thy factors. 10 The Persians, and Lydians, and the Libyans = (Libya) were thy soldiers in thy army: they hung up the buckler and the helmet in thee for thy ornament, Ezekiel 27:8 to 10.

The passage in Ezekiel 27:8 to 10 indicates that the Persians = (Iranians) and the Libyans were soldiers of Tyre. Tyre is a city in south Lebanon near the Israel's boarders. This city in modern days is the habitants of the shae = (shiites) moslems = (muslims) of Iran "(Hezb – ollah)" also. The same city was the habitants of the Persian Iranians and the Libyans during the Judges' era of Israel. The 1975 Lebanese civil war is still active in the twentieth first century. This war is caused by the Iranian shae = (shiites) moslems = (muslims) and the Alewe moslems = (muslims) of Syria. The Iranians and the Syrians passed thought the Lebanese boarders during the civil war and mingled with the Lebanese people.

During the thirty two years of the Lebanese captivities by the Iranians and the Syrians. Those illegal immigrants increase enormously through pleasure marriages [or marriage for pleasure] for few hours or few nights = (zawaj al-mutaa) (zawaj al-metaa), which make it very difficult to control.

This kind of marriages is recognized by the Shiites moslems = (muslims) of Iran. They practice it in Iran and around the world to increase the Shiites' population.

The Iranians and the Syrians established militias to terrorize the Lebanese government claiming that they are protection Lebanon from Israel. In reality, these militias are destroying Lebanon and the Lebanese government to overcome the country. Those militias are from (Hezb – ollah) organization, which is supported by Syria and Iran. Those terrorists killed 200 thousands people and about 20 senators and two presidents to overwhelmed Lebanon. Part of the Iranians and the Syrians' terrorisms in Lebanon are to give Lebanese citizenships to millions of illegal Iranians, Syrians, and Palestinians in Lebanon. If those illegal immigrants obtain the Lebanese citizenships, they would vote against democracy in the next elections, which increase terrorisms worldwide. Those three nations are aiming to unite all Arabians, Africans, and Asian moslem = (muslim) countries to establish an Islamic state. This state will be controlled by one Islamic ruler the "Kalifate = Caliphate" or Al - mahdi [mehdi]. The word "Kalifate or Caliphate" means "the descendent" of mohamed. The word al - mahdi means the spiritual guider, which is going to rule the Islamic world into Jihad = (kill the unbelievers in allah) to kill the Jews, Christians, and whosoever doesn't surrender to the religion of Islam and allah. History repeated its self; Iran was the Armies of Tyre thousands years ago, and in modern days, the same armies still in Tyre. Those people are called shae = (shiites) moslems = (muslims) "Iranian origin", which mingled in that city since Moses' era and probably before. In the twentieth first century, this army is in harmony with Syria and Alk-ae-da = (Al Qaeda). This terrorism is the sign of the beast (666) that the book of Revelation chapter 13 mentioned about. Alk-ae-da = (Al Qaeda), Syria, and Iran are terrorizing the world; in according to achieve their goal they have to destroy democracy first. Afterward, their jihad = (religious war) will expand to Islamize the entire world.

[Note: Persians = (Persia) = (Iran)]

The book of Ezekiel 27:8 to 21 clarifies about many countries that were dealing with Tyre. Modern Tyre is a city south of Lebanon. In this passage, the word “Arabian” is mentioned separately. It means the Arabs are separate nation from Egypt, Saba, Gabal, Lebanon, Libya, Persia = (Iran), and Tarshish. Greece, Thubal = (Tubal) = (Kabul), and Mosoch = (Meshech), the house of Thogorma = (Togarmah) the men of Dedan, the Syrian, Juda = (Judah) and the land of Israel, Damascus, Dan, Greece, Mosel, and the men of Dedan were dealing with Tyre also. [Note: Tubal = (Thubal) = (Kabul) is a city in modern Afghanistan]

It means the Arabs, which the people call them arabs aren't originally Arabs. They are mixed races that overwhelmed the Middle East including Arabia, and were named Arabs after they have overwhelmed those nations. Therefore, we can't call the Midians Arabs and we can't say that the Midians' land is in Saudi Arabia.

The passage reads: 11 The men of Arad were with thy army upon thy walls round about: the Pygmeans also that were in thy towers, hung up their quivers on thy walls round about: they perfected thy beauty. 12 Tarshish was thy merchants supplied thy fairs with a multitude of all kinds of riches, with silver, iron, tin, and lead. They traded in thy fair.13 Greece, Thubal = (Tubal) = (Kabul), and Mosoch = (Meshech), they were thy merchants: they brought to thy people slaves and vessels of brass. [Note: Tubal = (Thubal) = (Kabul) is modern Afghanistan]. 14 from the house of Thogorma = (Togarmah) they brought horses, and horsemen, and mules to thy market. 15 The men of Dedan = (Dadan) were thy merchants: many islands were the traffic of thy hand, they exchanged for thy price teeth of ivory and ebony. 16 The Syrian was thy merchant: by reason of the multitude of thy works, they set forth precious stones, and purple, and broidered works, and fine linen, and silk, and chodchod in thy market. 17 Juda = (Judah) and the land of Israel, they were thy merchants with the best corn: they set forth balm, and honey, and oil, and rosin in thy fairs. 18 The men of Damascus were thy merchants in the multitude of thy works, in the multitude of divers’ riches, in rich wine, in wool of the best colour. 19 Dan, and Greece, and Mosel have set forth in thy marts wrought iron: stacte, and calamus were in thy market. 20 The men of Dedan = (Dadan) were thy merchants in tapestry for seats. 21 Arabia, and all the princes of Cedar = (Kadar), they were the merchants of thy hand: thy merchants came to thee with lambs, and rants, and kid. 22 The sellers of Saba = (Sheba), and Reema, they were thy merchants: with all the best spices, and precious stones, and gold, which they set forth in thy market. 23 Haran, and Chene, and Eden were thy merchants; Saba = (Sheba), Assur (Asshur), and Chelmad sold to thee. 24 They were thy merchants in divers’ manners, with bales of blue cloth, and of embroidered work, and of precious riches, which were wrapped up and bound with cords: they had cedars also in thy merchandise. 25 The ships of the sea, were thy chief in thy merchandise: and thou was replenished, and glorified exceedingly in the heart of the sea. 26 Thy rowers have brought thee into great waters: the south wind hath broken thee in the heart of the sea, Ezekiel 27:11 to 26.

19 - Henoch = (Hanoch) in the book of Genesis:

Henoch is Cain’s son. Henoch is not Enoch who God took to heaven. In some translation, the name Henoch is spelled Enoch.

[Note: Henoch = (Henoc), in some translation Henoch = (Enoch) = (Henoc) = (Hanoch)], and [Mathusala = (Methuselah) = (Mathusale)]

[Note: Henoch = (Henoc) in Genesis 4:17 is not the same Enoch that is in Genesis 5:24. Henoch = (Henoc) in verse 4:17 is Cain's son, and Enoch in verse 5:24 is of Adam's seed, who God took to heaven.]

[Note: God took Enoch alive to heaven, Genesis 5:18 to 24. Few people believe that Enoch and Elijah will return to earth before the dreadful day of the lord. However, I believe Moses and Elijah shall return to earth instead Enoch and Elijah. Elijah ascended to heaven alive also, and Moses and Elijah appeared to Jesus also, Matthew 17:1 to 11. Genesis mentions about another person, which his name was Henoch = (Henoc). The person that ascended to heaven alive is Enoch. The son of Cain who killed his brother Abel is Henoch = (Henoc), Genesis 4:17. In some Arabic translations as the Bible Society of Lebanon, the son of Cain is Henoch = (Henoc), Genesis 4:17 and Enoch who ascend to heaven is “Aknouk” or “Achnouch”, Genesis 5:18.

The map shows Egypt and the Gulf of Agaba = (Agabah). The east side of Agaba = (Agabah) is Saudi Arabia. Mount Sinai is in between the two gulfs. The "Ismailia" or "Al Ismailia" location refers to Ishmael, the firstborn of Abraham, where Ishmael's descendants dwelt. It confirms that the Ishmaelite didn't dwell in Saudi Arabia and aren't Arabs. The Ishmaelite lived north of Egypt toward the Mediterranean Sea and west of Israel.
