‘After
the Sabbath, at dawn on the 1st day of the
week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the
tomb. Suddenly there was a great earthquake, for an
Angel of the LORD descended from Heaven, rolled away the
stone, and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning,
and his clothing white as snow...’ -Matthew 28: 1-3
The
purpose of this study is to suggest that there appears to
be some mathematical relationships incorporated in the
famous
Shroud of Turin that may not have been considered
up to now. This Shroud is believed by many to be the
authentic relic of the impression of the crucified body of
Jesus Christ. This piece of evidence is probably one of
the most studied artifacts in history that specifically
has been subjected to the scientific method and
investigation as none other. Although there has been 1000s
of hours of study, research and analysis by professional
scientists, this study proposes only to add what is
already a mountain of evidence and conjecture. One such
observation has to do with the location of the puncture
wound to the side of the body as impressed on the
Shroud of Turin.
The
side wound appears to be astonishingly in
phi ratio to the entire body of the tortured and
crucified man. This study suggests that such an
approximate
phi ratio proportion also has a direct correlation
to the supposed blood stain on the
Ark of the Covenant. In an anthropomorphic sense,
the supposed discovery of the
Ark of the Covenant by the late Ron Wyatt had the
blood splattered from the cross in the same area
mathematically; that is in approximate
phi ratio also. It is believed by Ron Wyatt that
the crucifixion site was between the
Skull Façade and the Garden Tomb.
Approximately 40 feet below was a cave in which the main
Temple furnishings were hidden away just before the
Babylonian destruction of the 1st Temple and the Captivity
of the Jews.
It
is conjectured that the earthquake that ensued during the
crucifixion of Jesus split the bedrock and created a
crevasse in which the blood of Jesus Christ flowed down to
an exposed encasing that secured the Ark of the
Covenant. The earthquake apparently removed enough
of the stone lid to expose the
Mercy Seat. This amazing sequence would follow the
protocol in which the blood of Christ was physically
applied as it would have been when the High Priest would
enter through the curtain and apply the blood once a year
on
Yom Kippur. This ‘picture’ is consistent with the
theological notion of the current prophetic office that
Jesus is ministering. Jesus was at that time and in His 1st
coming that of
Messiah-ben-Joseph, as a Prophet. After the
resurrection, Jesus is currently in Heaven, alive
interceding for His Bride before the true
Ark of the Convent where He presented His own blood
for atonement. Jesus is to return as promised in the
Upper Room discourse that He would not drink of the
fruit of the vine until the Kingdom.
The Phi Ratio Template
It is theologically understood that Jesus at His return,
will fulfill the 3rd prophetic office, that of
Messiah-ben-David. Jesus will return not as a
‘Lamb’ slaughtered and crowned with thorns and pierced but
as the conquering ‘Lion of Judah’ that defeated sin, Satan
and Death. Jesus at that time will restore Adam’s dominion
over the Earth and Humanity in holiness and righteousness.
It was then at the spot of the crucifixion of the Messiah
that the personages were replaced from perhaps the very
spot in which Abraham, as the father was put to the test
in sacrificing his only son, Isaac. If true, this
incredible piece of evidence, the Shroud of Turin
may have depicted the literal fulfillment of the
crucifixion, burial place and resurrection that all have
an apparent mathematical element of the phi ratio
incorporated.
Why
the
phi ratio? This phi ratio appears to be a
divine template of not only creation as seen in many
aspects, physically such as in flowers, and eclipse cycles
but in mathematics and perhaps prophetic time and events.
Thus this study suggests that perhaps the very wounds of
Christ Jesus as impressed in the Shroud of Turin
are in approximate phi ratio. This study suggests that
there appears to be a
phi ratio relationship at play as in the case of
even where the blood of Christ was applied to the area of
the
Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant. The
other phi ratio correlation has to do with even
where the body of Christ was but to rest in the
Garden Tomb. This study also suggests that the
speculated Garden Tomb had a modified
phi ratio proportion. For illustrated purposes the
phi ratio will be illustrated in the charts by the
same name using the spiral depiction for a more visual
effect. The
phi ratio can also extend into other dimensions
possibly and not only limited to a 2 and 3 dimensional
construct.
Perhaps
such a mathematical template produces a vortex or portal
that could serve as a key to unlocking such dimensions.
What this study suggests is that for example, the place
where the body of Jesus Christ was laid to rest was at the
approximated vortex of the
phi ratio spiral given the layout of the entire Garden
Tomb. It was from that point of origin that Jesus
resurrected from physically. This is assuming the layout
of the
Garden Tomb was and is the actual place of the
burial of Jesus Christ after the crucifixion. The other
phi ratio correlation has to do with the very
chambers of the Garden Tomb itself. What this
study suggests is that the
Garden Tomb approximates the dimensional sections
of the Tabernacle and Temples of YHVH.
The
Garden Tomb has 2 main chambers much like the
divine template of a Holies and a
Holy of Holies. The place where Jesus was laid
corresponds to the Holy of Holies and as if He was
the architype of the very
Ark of the Covenant, which theologically is the
case. The debate however still remains as to whether this
male body impressed on the
Shroud of Turin is that of the crucified Jesus
Christ. Many scientists that had direct access to it are
convinced that it is. The impressions of the Shroud do
nonetheless fit all the criteria of the Gospel accounts.
The blood on the head appears consistent of having a round
crown of thorns as the blood suggests such a pattern. The
Shroud does appear to match the 5 puncture wounds of
Jesus. In essence it was a tortured body full of
flagellations that for the most part, most men would not
have survived due to the shock on the body and loss of
consciousness and blood.
The Stripes of Christ – Afikomen
The face, the eyes, forehead, cheeks of the crucified
and tortured man of the
Shroud of Turin are all swollen from the torture of
the beatings and the flogging that the Shroud records from
the body. The whole body is lacerated in stipes by the
flogging that is consistent with the 3 pronged flagellum
of the ancient Romans. This literal and physical marking
prophetically fulfills the act of the Christ’s body
literally being the
Afikomen. This is a piece of unleavened bread that
is ‘striped’. It is wrapped in a ‘shroud’ or napkin and
hidden or ‘buried’ during Passover. Interestingly,
according to the research to date, the same pollens found
are consistent with those in Israel that only blossom
during the Passover season. The Jews then have to ‘find’
it and there is much rejoicing when it is discovered. This
is theologically what occurred with Jesus.
He was and is the ‘Afikomen’ whose body was lacerated by
the stripes of the torture received at the hands of the
Gentile Romans that mocked Him as the ‘King of the Jews’.
No bone was broken as the 2 others on the crosses where to
speed-up their death due to the Passover being the Preparation
Day where no man could be left to die on the
crosses. Jesus like the
Afikomen was wrapped in the Shroud, the Shroud
of Turin? He was then ‘hidden’ or buried in the
Garden Tomb. Due to the national rejection of
Israel of their Messiah, Jesus of Nazareth there is in
part a blindness come upon the Jews as a judgment.
However, the Gospel has resonated from the
Light of the Gentiles to even have the Jews be
provoked to jealousy.
And whenever a YHVH-fearing Jew looks to Jesus lifted up
as the Bronze Serpent that Moses made, the scales
fall off and they are ‘healed’ as they search and find the
Afikomen, Jesus. Interestingly also is the notion
that as the blood of Christ flowed down the crevasse, it
also thus healed the Earth of the same curse. There is
much rejoicing when a true Jew finds Jesus as the Messiah
that was buried in the Earth. Jesus was the Lamb of
YHVH, slaughtered as in the Afikomen of the
Passover. Such verses resonate then of which Isaiah 53:5
foretold that the Messiah would be so composed of
‘stripes’ on His physical body that it would ‘heal’ those
that would put their faith in the finished work of the
substitutionary sacrifice of the 2nd Adam as
promised to Abraham. Jesus was that Lamb led to the
slaughter that took the place of Isaac, literally on the
altar of the
Cross of Calvary to atone sin by the shedding of
His blood.
The
fleshly wound through the spleen and heart that produced
the greatest amount of blood from the heart and the water
from the spleen matches the account of how a Roman spear
or lane was used to ensure Jesus was ‘dead’. The nailing
of the hands was not through the palms of the hands as
that would have torn the flesh and the body would have
fallen off the cross. The blood-flow down the arms suggest
a ‘V’ type of nailing of the arms and hands and not a
traditional rendering as paintings do with a ‘T’ extended
arm formation. There are also the foot wounds of the
nailed feet. The body of Jesus was uniquely part of the
Hypostatic Union, meaning that in 1 body, in 1
person there were 2 natures, that of the Son of GOD or GOD
the Son fully intact yet encased in a body and 100% fully
human, the
2nd Adam. This union is believed to be the only of
its kind and not a hybridization. It is not sure if it was
a single nail going through the 2 feet or if each foot had
a separated nailing.
The Divine Receipt
Theologically,
it would appear that the
Shroud of Turin, if it is the actual impression of
the body of Jesus Christ is a form of a divine ‘receipt’.
It is as though the Shroud is a physical printout of the
crucifixion event as physical evidence to be had. It
serves as a sign and credential that He was the Messiah,
the Christ as He foretold would happen based on the
Sign of Jonah. This study also suggests that in
keeping with the phi ratio template of the various
variables surrounding the
Shroud of Turin which are the crucifixion, burial,
the Ark of the Covenant, the
Garden Tomb, and the physical body of a human, so
is the great Tetragrammaton Y-H-V-H proportioned
in
phi ratio as well.
If
one places the 4 Hebrew letters Y-H-V-H vertically, the
proportion appears to outline the proportions of the human
body as if it were anthropomorphic. As to Jesus’
crucifixion, a wording was also placed to denote the
capital offense of the crucified one. In this case it was
‘Jesus, the King of the Jews’. In regards to Jesus’
capital offense, being the ‘King of the Jews’, the
Pharisees protested that it should have read, ‘He claims
to be’...etc. The religious leaders of the Jews knew and
know the secret Luciferian magic arts of the
Kabbala. They easily deciphered the first 4 Hebrew
letters of the sign over Jesus’ head and they objected
because it was a near approximation of the
Tetragrammaton, Y-H-V-H; the ‘Unspoken Name’ of the
Creator.
Tetragrammaton
ה ו ה
י
Behold
Nail Behold Hand
Tav
- Alef
on the cross, Adonai
יֵשׁוּעַ
הַנָּצְרִי
מֶלֶךְ
הַיְּהוּדִים
Jews
King
Nazarene Yeshua
This
4 Hebrew letter word is said to encompass the essence and
attribute of the Creator, YHVH. The only letter that was
different was the ‘M’ for King or ‘Malik’. Thus this study
suggests that the pictorial rendition when incorporated in
an anthropomorphic depiction shows that
יֵהַמֶהַ
pertaining
to the sign of Jesus and
concerns
the male aspect of the ‘Unspoken Name’ of the Creator. The ה ו ה י
alludes
thus to the feminine attribute of the Creator’s Name.
Perhaps the very coded lettering of the crucifixion of
Jesus was also lie the Shroud a type of prophetic
‘receipt’ to Humanity and for Humanity.
In
the ancient
Paleo-Hebrew, the letters of Y-H-V-H stood for
‘Behold, Nail, Behold Hand’. Many theologians argue that
the pictorial significance foreshadowed the crucifixion of
Jesus Christ as the LORD crucified; that of GOD the Son in
the flesh as a human. The Shroud, like the lettered code
of Jesus’ sign was is thus also a ‘receipt’. The Shroud
made its way to the church in Turin, Italy from Israel.
The Shroud at one point was almost destroyed as a fire
broke out and it was saved by splashing water on it. The
burn-marks are very prominent and some scientists that
carbon dated the Shroud erroneously used an interwoven
corner portion of a rethreading.
The Blood of the Covenant
Although
the Shroud was supposedly carbon-dated, it was assumed to
be not of the 1st century. Critics of the dating method
argue that the corner of the Shroud from where the pieces
were rendered were in fact an interwoven repair-work of
the Middle Ages. One could have used the carbon of the
portion of the Shroud that was burned just as much. The
error of the scientific team was later corroborated by the
subsequent testing of the official carbon dater before he
passed away. He in fact had access to the original pieces
obtained and was resampled. Scientists to this day also
cannot explain the properties of the blood and cannot
explain other anomalies associated with the Shroud. What
is astonishing is the anomaly when one takes into
consideration the correlation of the blood from the body
of the man of the
Shroud of Turin with that of the blood on the Mercy
Seat of the purported discovered
Ark of the Covenant as allegedly Ron Wyatt.
In His extraordinary claim, Wyatt touched the Ark of
the Covenant and took a sample of the blood from the
top of the Mercy Seat. Ron Wyatt had the blood he
retrieved sampled in Israel by scientists and the blood
sample of both the ‘constructed’ Ark matched that of the
human ‘Ark’ of the Shroud; both were the same type and
they were determined to be that of a ‘virgin birth’. This
means that the blood type had only 23 XX female
chromosomes plus only 1 Y male chromosome. Jesus often
spoke about Himself in metaphorical terms of how His body
was likened to the Temple and a kernel of wheat that had
to die and be buried in the ground to bring forth life,
Eternal Life. Theologically, the Ark of the
Covenant is liked to Jesus’ mission, ministry and
attributes. Metaphorically but also literally, the
Ark of the Covenant is the depiction of this
‘kernel’ in one sense just as Jesus’ literal body was also
buried in the Earth as the ‘kernel’ of wheat.
What
is very unique about the scene after the resurrection of
Jesus, according the Gospels is that various Angels were
involved. A pair manifested themselves in the
Garden Tomb as the women came to prepare the body
after Passover that Sunday after the Sabbath. Passover, in
the midst of the week was on a Wednesday and thus a
High-Day Sabbath. In haste the body was ‘buried’
without preparations. Theologically the ‘sitting’ of the
Angels were contrary as they are depicted on the
Ark of the Covenant standing. The sitting of the 2
Angels signifies a work completed. It is timely as it was
Saturday and the day of rest, the Sabbath that Jesus arose
exactly 3 days of 24 hours times from the midst of the
week, Wednesday. The ‘sitting’ Angles represent the
finished work of Jesus, at least on this side of Eternity
as currently Jesus is functioning as the High Priest.
Another
such anomaly is the 3-D aspect that the Shroud impression
produces. With new modern technology, the topography of
the
Shroud of Turin has been mapped out extensively
with state of the art software. It has been found that
amazingly the image on the Shroud conveys a 3-deminsional
depiction like no other known to history or science. What
has been shown from a frontal view given the pictures of
the Shroud façade itself is that many have attempted to
reconstruct the visual appearance of the man’s face. Some
have rendered it more towards the classic depiction of
famous paintings that show a more effeminate Jesus.
The Face of GOD
In
2003, a remarkable young girl named Akiane Kramarik with
an obvious gift for painting depicted Jesus in the now
famous
The Prince of Peace portrait. Based on her
testimony, the depictions have been what has been revealed
to her by this presumed ‘Jesus’ of the Bible. Since then
many have superimposed her visage of Jesus onto the face
of the man of the
Shroud of Turin and it does have a striking
similarity, more so than any other to date and/or attempt.
What this study also suggests is that the same artist
painted a subsequent portrait the following year in 2004
of Jesus entitled
Father Forgive Them. This painting has the side
profile of Jesus according to the revelation of what Jesus
looked like to this gifted girl. Since the modern
topographical software exists to rotate the axis in any
degree of rotation, a 3-deminsional aspect of the man of
the Shroud has also been acquired in which the side
profile has also been rendered.
Astonishingly,
the side view of the artwork by Akiane Kramarik has a
sticking correspondence to the 3-deminsional portrait of
the man impressed on the
Shroud of Turin. This study strongly suggests that
although circumstantially,
the matching of the face contours, the brow, the nose
bridge, and the forehead, eyes, cheek and mouth formation
appear to match 100%. Another anomaly has to do with the
‘negative’ aspect of the
Shroud of Turn. Based on all the evidence analyzed
and scrutinized, it appears that the photographic effect
of the image imprinted on the Shroud is a reverse native.
Another anomaly is that the image is said to only be
impressed on the top layers of the Shroud and conclusively
not printed all the way through the fabric as so many
alleged throughout the centuries.
Moreover,
what is also an anomaly is that the exposure has been
determined to only have been possible with a light source
outside the spectrum of the visible light at an intense
frequency. Some have calculated that the impression left
on the Shroud and in negative aspects would and could have
required a ’flash’ to that can only be matched by a
‘flash’ of an atomic blast going off. It is estimated that
it would have required 34 trillion watts of light emitted
in a split section from the inside of the Shroud. What is
amazing is that it’s a uniform exposure, front and back
-at the same time. The conjecture is thus, has the
Shroud of Turin, if it is that of Jesus also
recorded the moment the LORD Jesus Christ resurrected and
His body transformed to that of pure light and energy?
Will this also happen at the point of the Resurrection and
the Rapture when the bodies of the Believers will be metamorphized?
