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

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

[Note from the author of this site. This note has nothing to do with the author of this text: The Arabs name the crusaders "Salibian" which refers to the cross of Christ. The "cross" in Arabic language is "salib" therefore, the Arabs name the crusaders "Salibian" or "Salibieen" because the crusades use the cross sign on their uniforms. The Arabs consider the crusades Christians and the enemies of Islam. It is true that the European Crusades battled against the moslems = (muslims) in the Middle East to liberate the holy Land Jerusalem from the Islamic invasions in the eleventh century.]

[Note from the author of this site. This note has nothing to do with the author of this text: The Arabs name the crusaders "Salibian" which refers to the cross of Christ. The "cross" in Arabic language is "salib" therefore, the Arabs name the crusaders "Salibian" or "Salibieen" because the crusades use the cross sign on their uniforms. The Arabs consider the crusades Christians and the enemies of Islam. It is true that the European Crusades battled against the moslems = (muslims) in the Middle East to liberate the holy Land Jerusalem from the Islamic invasions in the eleventh century.]
