the conclusions in Your letter of 1th of June is very interesting, because if it happen before Peres leave his place as president in Israel, then it's not a private visit, he then represent Israel and it's religious history - it also reminds me of the warning from God, in Isaiah 28:15 & 18.v.

A christian philosofer Søren Kirkegård said: "life shall be lived forwards, but understood backwards" or: we must live in the actuel time we are, but never forget what have happen before in our history.

the name Peres means a break or divided, and as you quote from Daniel 5:25-28.v. - ''Peres: Your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians'' verse 28th.

Some modern archæologist and interested in migration means, that the Medes now is represented

in Russia and Ukraine, and the Persians know we is Iran, - and the close relations between Russia and Iran is also well-known.

The risen why ancient hebrew names have a meaning, they are given us for sign' and warnings -

as the spanish/american philosofer Santanyana quoted it: those who forget their past history are doomed to repeat it all !

May we all have a blessed Pentecost, in the love and mercy from our great Redeemer Lord and Love Jesus Christ - the only true way to life - lets trust in and follow Him !
