The newly enthroned Demetrius I Soter managed to instill a degree of order throughout the Seleucid realm, crushing the would-be king Timarchos in Babylonia and the rebellion of Judas Maccabee. Yet his behavior abroad alienated many of the other kings like Attalus II of Pergamon and Ptolemy VI, who in turn bankrolled the ambitions of another Seleucid usurper: Alexander Balas, the (supposed) lost son of Antiochus IV Epiphanes.

2 Chronicles 28 tells of Ahaz' evil reign. That wicked king sacrifices his firstborn son to Molech and disfigures his younger son, Hezekiah, by passing him through the fire. Pekah, the son of Remaliah, kills 120,000 men of Judah and takes 200,000 captives to Samaria. The prophet Oded remonstrates with Israel and demands that the captives be fed, clothed, placed on asses and sent home to Jerusalem. The account is the basis of the parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 9. Because of the idolatry of Ahaz, the Philistines ransack Judah. Ahaz pays tribute to the Syrian king. That wicked king of Judah copies the Syrian altar in Damascus and worships the Syrian gods. Altars are made in every corner of Jerusalem. When Ahaz dies his son Hezekiah comes to the throne. Ahaz is not buried among the kings of Judah The events of Daniel 8 occur in the third year of Belshazzar. Daniel sees two beasts battling for ascendancy - the Persian Ram and the Grecian He goat. The Golden Fleece of the ram is legendary in Persian folklore. The goat is Alexander, who was known to the Greeks as 'the goat'. Philip of Macedon had united the Greek tribes. Alexander seeking revenge for the Persian ravages of two centuries earlier and urged on by his tutor (Aristotle) defeats a massive Persian army of over two million men at the Battle of Granicus in BC334. With the Persians in retreat, he smashes a similar sized army at the Battle of Isus. Verses 13-14 prophesy of a period of 2,300 day/years until the liberation of Jerusalem during the six-day war of June 1967. From verses 15-27 we have the vision interpreted and Persia and Greece as the named antagonists. Curiously we are told that this little-horn power would stand against, and be destroyed by, Messiah. We noted from the beasts of chapter 7 that elements of the third beast were incorporated into the Roman beast. Rome's first territory in the goat territory was the bequest in the will of Atallus of the territory of Pergamon, which becomes known as 'the little horn of the goat'. Alexander dies heirless and his Empire is divided among his four generals. Since the "king of fierce countenance" is to be destroyed by Messiah. Aspects of the second half of this chapter seem to indicate that this prophecy relates to events which we are witnessing and which will find their fulfilment in the near future. Surely we are witnessing the unfolding of these events in these last days with the rise of a "king of fierce countenance" in the north. Acts 8 records that Saul accented to Stephen's stoning and sets out on a course of destruction like an enraged bull. The objects of his persecution are the faithful believers in Christ. However, the greater the persecution, the faster the gospel spreads. Philip preaches Christ in Samaria and his testimony is supported by miracles. The city of Samaria had been bewitched by Simon the Sorcerer. However, Simon recognises the difference between his tricks and the powerful workings of the Holy Spirit. The record tells us that baptism only took place for believing adult subjects. Verse 12 provides us with a definition of the gospel - "the things concerning the kingdom of God and the things concerning the name of Jesus Christ". Although Philip could perform miracles he could not bestow the gifts - that only occurred through the laying on of the Apostles' hands. Simon seeks to buy the gifts from Peter and John and is grievously condemned for attempting this. Philip is next told to join the chariot of an Ethiopian eunuch of great authority under Candace their Queen. This eunuch was a proselyte and was reading Isaiah 53. The eunuch tells Philip that he fails to understand what the prophet spoke of. Philip commences with that chapter and explains Christ to the eunuch. No doubt Philip's preaching included the blessings from God on the eunuchs who choose the ways of God (Isaiah 56). Philip and the eunuch come to sufficient water for immersion. Philip explains to the eunuch that providing he has a wholehearted belief in Christ he may be baptised. Note how the record says that they both went down into the water and came up out of it together. The eunuch continues on his way rejoicing; but Philip is immediately snatched away to Azotus some 40 kilometres distant - the Lord having further work for Philip to do there.

In unserer neuen Predigtserie „Post von Jesus“ tauchen wir ein in die Sendschreiben der Offenbarung – persönliche Briefe von Jesus an sieben Gemeinden in Kleinasien. Diese Worte sind mehr als historische Dokumente: Sie sind voller Ermutigung, Korrektur und Hoffnung. Und sie sprechen auch heute noch direkt in unser Leben und unsere Gemeinde hinein. Jede Woche öffnen wir einen neuen Brief und fragen: Was können wir daraus für unseren Glauben heute mitnehmen? Welche Ermutigung steckt darin, welche Perspektive gibt Jesus uns?

“Compromise will destroy your faith.” Join us as we learn that God has great things in store for us but when we compromise it only hurts us!

V poslední knize Bible - Zjevení Janově - je mimo jiné poselství pro církev v Pergamu. Místo existuje dodnes a právě do něj zavítáme v rámci cestovatelského týdeníku Za obzor. Uchváceni životem v tureckém městě Bergama - životem studentů, pro které v jednom z místních parků připravili odpolední programy, a životem zaniklých antických památek, se z dvoutýdenního výjezdu vrátili Ester Pučálková a Tomáš Gaja.

Miasto Pergamon pojawia się tylko raz w Biblii, ale za to opisano je jako miejsce “gdzie jest tron szatana” (Objawienie 2:13). Dalsza część tego wersetu mówi jeszcze: “Antypas, świadek mój wierny, został zabity u was, gdzie szatan ma swoje mieszkanie”. Historia tego miasta jest związana z Biblią. Nie tylko jednak chodzi o jej treść, ale także materiał na którym przepisywano tą księgę. Starożytne miasto Pergamon znajdowało się jakieś 25 km na wschód od Morza Egejskiego. Dzisiaj ruiny znajdują się przy tureckim mieście Bergama.  Gdybyście chcieli zwiedzić ruiny musicie polecieć do Izmiru, a stamtąd pojechać na północ do Bergamy. Pergamon zbudowano na samotnej górze. Później jednak miasto się rozrosło także u podnóża. Przypomina to historię Aten z ich Akropolem. Pergamon znajduje się jednak dużo dalej od morza.Pergamon pierwszy raz jest wspomniany przez Ksenofonta w opisie marszu 10 tysięcy czyli Anabazie. Już wtedy mieszkali tam Grecy. W III wieku na tereny dzisiejszej Turcji najechali Celtowie znani jako Galaci. Pokonał ich Attalos I król Pergamonu w 240 roku p.n.e. Aby uczcić swoje zwycięstwo nakazał zbudować ołtarz poświęcony Zeusowi. Umieszczono na nim także rzeźby pokonanych Galatów. Ten ołtarz można oglądać w berlińskim muzeum Pergamon.Attalos I, był pierwszym, który przyjął tytuł króla, jego wnuk Attalos III był ostatnim królem Pergamonu. Umierając przekazał swoje królestwo Rzymowi. Ci utworzyli z tego królestwa prowincję rzymską Azja. Początkowo Pergamon dalej był stolicą, ale potem nowi władcy przenieśli ją do Efezu. Właśnie w tej prowincji znajdowały się miasta wspomniane w ostatniej księdze biblijnej Objawieniu. Dlaczego Pergamon nie pojawia się jednak w Dziejach Apostolskich?Podczas swojej drugiej podróży misjonarskiej Paweł pojawiał się w zachodniej części dzisiejszej Turcji. Jednak w Dziejach Apostolskich 16:6 czytamy: “I przeszli przez frygijską i galacką krainę, ponieważ Duch Święty przeszkodził w głoszeniu Słowa Bożego w Azji”. Apostoł i jego towarzysze przeprawili się więc do Macedonii. Wracając Paweł odwiedził Efez. Później ponownie przybył tam podczas trzeciej swojej podróży. Nigdy chyba jednak nie odwiedził Pergamonu.Gdy połączymy te dwie informacje, zakaz głoszenia w Azji przez Ducha Świętego z Dziejów Apostolskich z określeniem Pergamonu jako tronu szatana z księgi Objawienia, można wyciągnąć wniosek, że tereny te były bardzo przeciwne chrześcijaństwu. W Efezie stolicy prowincji Azja głoszenie Pawła doprowadziło do zamieszek, po których musiał uciekać z miasta. Czy coś takiego spotkało Antypasa?O Objawieniu 2:13 czytaliśmy: “Antypas, świadek mój wierny, został zabity u was, gdzie szatan ma swoje mieszkanie”. Nie znamy szczegółów tego wydarzenia, ale przez analogię możemy sobie wyobrazić, że Antypas tak jak Paweł w Efezie głosił, że bożki zrobione rękami ludzkimi nie są bogami. Tłum w Efezie chciał zabić apostoła, ale inni chrześcijanie go ukryli. Być może w Pergamonie tłum ludzi zabił chrześcijanina o imieniu Antypas.Dzieje Apostolskie opisują podróże apostoła Pawła, który omijał Pergamon. W Liście do Galatów 2:9 jednak czytamy: “Jakub i Kefas, i Jan, którzy są uważani za filary, podali mnie i Barnabie prawicę na dowód wspólnoty, abyśmy poszli do pogan, a oni do obrzezanych”. Tak więc Paweł miał głosić dobrą nowinę na tych terenach. Nie zrobił tego chyba z powodu wielkiego sprzeciwu na tych terenach. Później jednak w Objawieniu Jan napisał siedem listów do zborów w Azji (rzymskiej prowincji). Wygląda na to, że te siedem zborów było pod jego opieką. Innymi słowy po śmierci apostoła Pawła chyba właśnie apostoł Jan głosił w Pergamonie.W Objawieniu czytaliśmy, że chrześcijanie dalej trzymali się imienia Jezusa nawet po męczeńskiej śmierci Antypasa. Był jednak inny problem. W Objawieniu 2:14 czytamy: “Lecz mam ci nieco za złe, mianowicie, że są tam tacy, którzy trzymają się nauki Balaama, który nauczał Balaka, jak uwodzić synów izraelskich, by spożywali rzeczy bałwanom ofiarowane i uprawiali nierząd”. W czasach Mojżesza Balaam wysłał kobiety, które zapraszały Izraelitów na uczty i skłaniały ich do niemoralności i bałwochwalstwa.Ponownie nie znamy faktów, ale możemy sobie chyba wyobrazić, że chrześcijanie, którzy nie chcieli brać udziału w bałwochwalstwie mogli zostać przekonani do tego przez miejscowe kobiety. Oprócz ołtarza poświęconego Zeusowi w Pergamonie czczono też Dionizosa, którego Rzymianie nazywali Bachusem. Jego kult polegał między innymi na upijaniu się oraz niemoralności. Pod wpływem alkoholu chrześcijanin, który wystrzegał się bałwochwalstwa i rozpusty mógł się czegoś takiego dopuścić.Zapewne słyszeliście o słynnej Bibliotece Aleksandryjskiej. Była to największa biblioteka świata starożytnego. Na drugim miejscu była Biblioteka Pergamońska. Ten sam władca, który pokonał Galatów kazał też zbudować bibliotekę. Ponieważ te biblioteki konkurowały ze sobą Grecy z Aleksandrii zakazali eksportu papirus z Egiptu. Co zrobili Grecy z Pergamonu?Już wcześniej znany był materiał pisarski jakim były wyprawione skóry zwierzęce, ale gdy zabrakło papirusu w Pergamonie zaczęto na masową skalę używać tego materiału. Nie zdziwi was pewnie fakt, że materiał ten nazwano pergaminem. W 2 Tymoteusza 4:13 czytamy: “Płaszcz, który zostawiłem w Troadzie u Karposa, przynieś, gdy przyjdziesz, i księgi, zwłaszcza pergaminy”.Paweł omijał więc Pergamon, ale chętnie używał materiału pisarskiego z tego miasta. Do naszych czasów dotrwało wiele kodeksów czyli wczesnych kopii Biblii zapisanych właśnie na pergaminie. Ten materiał był używany jeszcze przez co najmniej 15 wieków. W Polsce np. Biblia królowej Zofii została spisana na pergaminie. W Pergamonie na tym materiale spisywano zwoje, które znajdowały się później w Bibliotece Pergamońskiej.Niektórzy bibliści twierdzą, że to właśnie ta biblioteka pełna pogańskich pism była dla apostoła Jana “tronem szatana”. Inni wskazują na świątynię Zeusa, jeszcze inni na kult cesarza, który rozwinął się właśnie w Pergamonie. Jest jednak jeszcze jedna teoria związana z chaldejskimi magami, którzy mieli wyemigrować z Babilonu właśnie do Pergamonu. W księdze Objawienia wspomniano później także o Babilonie wielkim.Wprawdzie nie ma historycznych dowodów na taką emigrację, ale wydaje się ona prawdopodobna. Chaldejscy magowie z Babilonu byli słynni na cały starożytny świat. Attalos I budując bibliotekę poszukiwał mędrców i pewnie chętnie by przyjął Chaldejczyków. Pergamon w ten sposób miał stać się centrum religii pogańskiej. Problem polega jednak na tym, że apostoł Jan spisywał Objawienie w czasach 11 cesarza Domicjana. Centrum religii pogańskiej było wtedy w Rzymie.Niemniej, księga Objawienia wspomina o jeszcze innym problemie. W Objawieniu 2:15 czytamy: “Tak i ty masz u siebie takich, którzy również trzymają się nauki nikolaitów”. Tak jak zwolenników Lutra nazywano luteranami, tak w I wieku określano zwolenników Nikolausa. Nie wiemy dokładnie na czym polegała ta nauka. Być może chodziło o synkretyzm religijny czyli połączenie chrześcijaństwa z pogańskim kultem.Tak więc, Pergamon zajmuje szczególne miejsce w historii Biblii – zarówno jako miejsce, które w symboliczny sposób zostało opisane w Nowym Testamencie, jak i jako ośrodek, w którym rozwinięto materiał piśmienniczy, który odegrał kluczową rolę w przekazywaniu Słowa Bożego na przestrzeni wieków. To fascynujące, jak jedno starożytne miasto łączy w sobie tak różne, ale równie istotne aspekty historii biblijnej.Wiem, gdzie mieszkasz, tam, gdzie jest tron szatana; a jednak trzymasz się mocno mego imienia i nie zaparłeś się wiary we mnie, nawet w dniach, kiedy Antypas, świadek mój wierny, został zabity u was, gdzie szatan ma swoje mieszkanie.https://biblia-online.pl/Biblia/Warszawska/Objawienie-Swietego-Jana/2/13I przeszli przez frygijską i galacką krainę, ponieważ Duch Święty przeszkodził w głoszeniu Słowa Bożego w Azji.https://biblia-online.pl/Biblia/Warszawska/Dzieje-Apostolskie/16/6Otóż, gdy poznali okazaną mi łaskę, Jakub i Kefas, i Jan, którzy są uważani za filary, podali mnie i Barnabie prawicę na dowód wspólnoty, abyśmy poszli do pogan, a oni do obrzezanychhttps://biblia-online.pl/Biblia/Warszawska/List-do-Galacjan/2/9Lecz mam ci nieco za złe, mianowicie, że są tam tacy, którzy trzymają się nauki Balaama, który nauczał Balaka, jak uwodzić synów izraelskich, by spożywali rzeczy bałwanom ofiarowane i uprawiali nierząd.https://biblia-online.pl/Biblia/Warszawska/Objawienie-Swietego-Jana/2/14Płaszcz, który zostawiłem w Troadzie u Karposa, przynieś, gdy przyjdziesz, i księgi, zwłaszcza pergaminyhttps://biblia-online.pl/Biblia/Warszawska/2-List-do-Tymoteusza/4/13Tak i ty masz u siebie takich, którzy również trzymają się nauki nikolaitówhttps://biblia-online.pl/Biblia/Warszawska/Objawienie-Swietego-Jana/2/15

Skriv til engelen for menigheten i Filadelfia: "Fordi du har tatt vare på mitt ord om å holde ut, vil jeg bevare deg gjennom den tid av prøvelser som skal komme over hele verden for å prøve dem som bor på jorden." (Åp. 3, 7&10)Dette brevet har mye likt med et annet brev som vi kan lese om i Åpenbaringen (brevet til Pergamon), men dette brevet er uten refselsene som var i det andre. Utholdenheten fremheves og nevnes to ganger, og det på tross av at menigheten hadde liten kraft (v. 8). Jakob sier: "Det er dem som holder ut, vi priser salige." (Jak. 5, 11). Om vi er sterke eller svake, så er det utholdenheten som lønner seg. Menigheten skulle bli bevart gjennom nye trengsler, og de ville få oppleve en ekstraordinær vekkelse (v. 9). I tillegg ga Jesus dem en åpen dør. Muligens var det til en rik tjeneste, eller om Han mente døra inn til Himmelen (1. Kor. 16, 9; 2. Pet. 1, 10-11).Denne menigheten holdt til i Filadelfia, et gresk ord som betyr broderkjærlighet. Og nettopp kjærligheten til søsken-fellesskapet i troen er en nøkkel til å holde ut, sier Bibelen (Apg. 2, 42). La oss sammen holde ut i løpet vårt med blikket festet på Jesus (Hebr. 12, 1-3)!Og la oss ta vare på Jesu ord, og la oss støtte hverandre og oppmuntre hverandre, for det er de som holder ut vi priser salige!Skrevet og lest av Eli Fuglestad for Norea Håpets Kvinner.

Skriv til engelen for menigheten i Pergamon: "Likevel holder du fast på mitt navn. Og du har ikke fornektet troen på meg..." (Åp. 2, 12-13)Pergamon-byen var sete for sterk avgudsdyrkelse og romersk makt, og Satan hadde et godt feste her. Men menigheten stod fast og hold ut i prøvelsene. Forførelsene derimot var de ikke på vakt overfor, og de hadde fått innpass i menigheten, kan vi lese (v. 14-15). Kristne der deltok i en del av samfunnets avgudsdyrking og drev hor, på gresk ordet "porneia". Det kan oversettes med "lettsindig elskov". Vårt ord "porno" kommer fra det.Alt dette er sterke fristelser i vårt samfunn i dag. Også om vi tenker hor i åndelig forstand (2. Kor. 11,2). Lettsindig omgang med ulike verdslige eller spirituelle strømninger er en fare. Vi skal være blant folk, men ikke være som dem, sier Bibelen (Joh. 17,15-16). Det som avslører forførelsen, er Guds Ord, og derfor er løsningen å gi Guds Ord plass i liv og hjerte, for det virker i oss med kraft, sier Bibelen (Kol. 3,16; 1. Tess. 2,13; Åp. 2, 16)!Ja, la oss være på vakt i prøvelser og overfor forførelser, men la oss mest av alt fylle oss med Guds Ord, for da kan vi også være frimodige!Skrevet og lest av Eli Fuglestad for Norea Håpets Kvinner.

In the calm before the storm, we examine what was going on in Anatolia. Achaeus the Younger has been a rising power since he's been free to romp round the peninsula, squaring off against Attalus I of Pergamon and whoever else he comes across.

In this special, in between seasons, compilation, we mash together our previous four episodes about the last book of the New Testament. The finest final chapter. The most metal maelstrom of mayhem and madness. The epilogue to end all epilogues. The volume of vengeful violence that is, the Book of Revelation! Volume 1 contains the previously released episodes,Book of Revelation 00 Prologue of the EpilogueBook of Revelation 01 First Chapter of the Final ChapterBook of Revelation 02 Where Satan DwellsBook of Revelation 03 I Will Come In To Him Many apologists, theologians, academics, historians and scholars have pondered the inclusion of this Lovecraftian hallucination in the final draft of the Chri$tian Bible. We will look at the various theories as they come up.  The prologue includes cameo appearances from, The Bible, the Rapture, John of Patmos, Roman Emperors Domitian, Vespasian, Titus, Nero and Caligula. We'll also meet Epaphroditus, Eusebius, Josephus and D.H. Lawrence. Did you know you are blessed just to read it or hear it read? Did you now this book is a cornerstone of conspiracy theories like Flat Earth Theory and the Holy Trinity? Does it allude to the Holy Ghost or the Archangels? What's the deal with John and the number seven? Will we see the saviour coming in the clouds? Will he or won't he have a two edged sword in his mouth? Will he sound like a fart or diarrhoea? Did you know it gives you a description including but not limited to Christ's breasts? And why does John mansplain away his poetic metaphors? I chapter two, John will explain to the church of Ephesus just how much the ultimate creator god of the entire universe is upset about a wife swapping cult of Nicolaitanes. John explains quantum physics to the church in Smyrna and proves once and for all Jesus is Schrodinger's Cat.John doxes Satan's home in Pergamon.And among the church in Thyatira, we finally meet, Jezebel! And she does not disappoint. She repented not!Is this book prophecy of a future still to come?Is this book a coded message of rebellion for the early Chri$tian freedom fighters in their struggle with the Roman Empire?Is this book xenophobic propaganda to stop Hellenising?Who cares? It's got Hell, Armageddon, Antipas, the brazen bull, Zeus, Balaam, Balac, the children of Israel, Canaanites, angels, a talking donkey, fornication, Motorhead, Lemmy, Frankenfurter, Sardis, playstation, Christmas, Philadelphia, David, Cheech, Chong, Cheech and Chong, Billy Graham, Richard Nixon, Ron DeSantis, Disney World, robux, Laodiceans, Donald Trump, Mordor and the Roman Empire  #666 #SketchComedy #Sketch #Comedy #Sketch Comedy #Atheist #Science #History #Atheism #Antitheist #ConspiracyTheory #Conspiracy #Conspiracies #Sceptical #Scepticism #Mythology #Religion #Devil #Satan #Bible #Skeptic #Debunk #SatanIsMySuperhero #Podcast #funny #sketch #skit #comedy #comedyshow #comedyskits #HeavyMetal #weird #RomanEmpire #Rome #AncientRome #Romans #RomanEmperor 

Galen von Pergamon war einer der Großen der Medizingeschichte. Seine Lehren galten über 1400 Jahre unangefochten als Lehrstoff und prägten die Medizin ihrer Zeit. Neben anatomischen Studien begründete er eine Diagnosemethodik und prägte Begriffe und Systeme, die zum Teil auch heute noch Gültigkeit haben. Allerdings gab es auch eklatante Fehler. So dauerte es bis 1540 bis seine Anatomievorstellungen in Frage gestellt wurden und durch Sektionen am Menschen korrigiert wurden.

Despite a controversial rise to the throne, King Perseus showed himself to be an able ruler. Continuing his father's policies of restoring the strength of Macedonia, he earned a positive reputation across the Greek world through his philanthropy and general good behavior. His rising popularity earned the enmity of those like Eumenes II of Pergamon, who accused Perseus of secretly carrying out plans for a war against the Roman Republic, inheriting his father's schemes. Tensions would soon boil over, and the king would find himself in the crosshairs of the Senate, leading to the Third Macedonian War.

Yuval Noah Harari's best-selling Sapiens explored human's extraordinary progress alongside the capacity to spin stories. In Nexus he focuses on how those stories have been shared and manipulated, and how the flow of information has made, and unmade, our world. With examples from the ancient world, to contemporary democracies and authoritarian regimes, he pits the pursuit of truth against the desire to control the narrative. And warns against the dangers of allowing AI to dominate information networks, leading to the possible end of human history.The classicist, Professor Edith Hall, looks at how information flowed in Ancient Greece, and how the great libraries of Alexandria and Pergamon were precursors to the World Wide Web. Homer wrote about intelligent machines in his epic poetry, which suggests that the human desire for AI goes back a long way, along with the hubris about being in control. By understanding and appreciating the past, Professor Hall argues we can look more clearly at our current condition. Madhumita Murgia is the first Artificial Intelligence Editor of the Financial Times and the author of Code Dependent: Living in the Shadow of AI. She investigates the impact AI can have on individual lives and how we interact with each other. And while there are fears that companies have unleashed exploitative technologies with little public oversight, cutting edge software has unprecedented capacity to speed up scientific discoveries.

In this episode we once again, pick up the Book of Revelation at chapter three and continue calling out early Christian churches in Asia Minor for not being Christian enough. For not hating enough. For not paying enough. We have already done three episodes on this book which you can easily find in the feed. But for those of you who have not studied for this exam, here's a quick recap. John of Patmos is sitting all alone in a cave like a totally normal person, writing a letter to seven churches in modern day Turkey. Back in chapter two, he started to pretend he was Jesus. So far John pretending to be Jesus has called out the church of Ephesus for not loving Jesus hard enough. But praised them for hating a cult of wife swappers. He's warned the church of Smyrna the devil is coming to town to incarcerate them all. He's called out the church of Pergamon for eating barbeque and fornicating. Then he told Pergamon Jesus was coming with a sword in his mouth to fight them all. John has singled out a member of the church of Thyatira called Jezebel. For also eating barbeque and fornicating. What on earth has chapter three got in install for us?Special guest appearances by Frankenfurter, Sardis, playstation, Christmas, Philadelphia, David, Cheech, Chong, Cheech and Chong, Billy Graham, Richard Nixon, Ron DeSantis, Disney World, robux, Laodiceans, Donald Trump, Mordor and the Roman Empire   #666 #SketchComedy #Sketch #Comedy #Sketch Comedy #Atheist #Science #History #Atheism #Antitheist #ConspiracyTheory #Conspiracy #Conspiracies #Sceptical #Scepticism #Mythology #Religion #Devil #Satan #Bible #Skeptic #Debunk #SatanIsMySuperhero #Podcast #funny #sketch #skit #comedy #comedyshow #comedyskits #HeavyMetal #weird #RomanEmpire #Rome #AncientRome #Romans #RomanEmperor 

Attalus of Pergamon seems to have become enough an issue that Seleucus is trying to stabilise Syria ahead of an incursion. It's time to mete out some Seleucid wrath to Anatolia- or is it...?

Brother Nick gives us a short history lesson of the seven churches in Revelation and then continues with the church at Pergamos in Revelation 2:12-17.

Ohne Jesus im Zentrum ist Kirche nicht denkbar. Die Geschichte zeigt, dass immer dann, wenn Kirche sich vom Evangelium als Grundlage entfernt, sie in Schieflage gerät, anstatt wirklich einen lebensverändernden Unterschied für die Menschen zu machen und ein Segen zu sein. „Kehre um“ ist die Aufforderung Jesu an die Gemeinde in Pergamon, die stark beeinflusst war vom Kaiserkult und von Götzenverehrung. Was wir von dieser Kirche und ihren Herausforderungen lernen können, darum geht's in dieser Predigt. Eine Predigt von David Schimmel

In dieser Predigt spricht Leo Bigger über "Die Herausforderung der Treue" und wie wichtig es ist, in unserem Glauben standhaft zu bleiben, selbst wenn wir in einer Umgebung leben, die uns in Versuchung führt. Leo erzählt von Herausforderungen, denen die Gemeinde in Pergamon gegenüberstand, wie in Offenbarung 2 beschrieben. Er betont, dass Gott unsere Treue sieht und schätzt, auch wenn niemand sonst es bemerkt. Leo fordert dich auf, z.B. in deiner Small Group eine Übung zu machen: Was würde Gott dir in einem Brief Positives und Negatives schreiben? Diese Reflexion hilft dir, deine Beziehung zu Gott zu vertiefen. Leo verwendet das Beispiel von Bileam, um zu zeigen, wie leicht man in Versuchung geraten kann, seine Prinzipien zu verraten. Er ermutigt dich, demütig und treu zu bleiben, auch wenn es schwer ist. Zum Schluss erinnert Leo daran, dass wahre Freiheit und Intimität mit Gott nur durch Treue und Heiligkeit erreicht werden können. Bleib standhaft und lass dich nicht von der Welt negativ beeinflussen.

After Hierax evicted Seleucus from Anatolia, the peninsula descended into chaos. But one of the monarchs of the Hellenistic period would not stand for that.

Content warning for discussion of genocide and child death Episode music can be found here: https://uppbeat.io/track/paulo-kalazzi/heros-time Day 5 will take a look into the historic event known as the Asiatic Vespers, one of the only genocide committed against Rome instead of by it. Episode Notes Below: Hey, Hi, Hello, this is the History Wizard and welcome back for Day 3 of Have a Day w/ The History Wizard. Thank you to everyone who tuned in for Day 2 last week, and especially thank you to everyone who rated and/or reviewed the podcast. I hope you all learned something last week and I hope the same for this week. For this week's episode we're going to be talking about a genocide committed AGAINST the Romans. This is particularly unusual because usually the Romans are the ones committing genocides and war crimes. Historically speaking the event is called the Asiatic Vespers, which should explain the pun in the episode title. And if it doesn't, I'm not going to be explaining it. Google is free. Our timeline places us in the Roman Republic. The Punic Wars are over, Carthago cecidit and Rome had steadily been expanding its borders in all directions. By the time the Punic Wars were over Rome held all of Italy, most of Iberia, most of Greece, parts of northern Africa, including Carthage, and were on the cusp of moving into the Anatolia (what is today part of the nation of Turkey). You might think that Rome would be tired of wars after their decades of fighting against the Carthiginians, but their victories only made them hungry for more. During the final decade of the 2nd century BCE the Romans were engaged in 2 distinct wars. One in northwest Africa (the area that is today Algeria) against King Jurgatha of Numidia called the Jugurthine War and one fought around western Europe against various Celtic and Germanic tribes who had invaded from the Jutland Peninsula (modern day Denmark and parts of Northern Germany) called the Cimbrian Wars. Both wars would end in Roman victories, and we will discuss them very briefly now as they are relevant to our later discussion, but not the main focus of this episode. The Jugurthan War took place two generations after the fall of Carthage. King Massinisa, an ally of Rome against Carthage died in 149. He was succeeded by his son Micipsa, who was succeeded by two sons and an illegitimate nephew. Adherbal (son), Hiempsal I (son), and Jugurtha (the nephew). Micipsa, fearing conflict amongst his three heirs bid them split the kingdom up into three parts. One to be ruled over by each of them.  The Roman Senate has been given the authority, by Micsipa, to make sure his will was carried out, but being the corrupt piece of shit it was, the Senate allowed itself to be bribed by Jugurtha to overlook his crimes after he assassinated Hiempsal and forced Adherbal to flee to Rome for safety. Peace WAS declared, albeit briefly, between the two men, although in 113 BCE Jugurtha, once again, declared war on Adherbal. Rome, fearing instability in the region, acquiesced to Adherbal's request for aid and sent troops to the fight and ambassadors to Jugurtha to demand peace negotiations. Jugurtha was clever though, and knew how much the Romans loved to talk. So he kept them doing just that until Cirta, Adherbal's capital ran out of food and had to surrender. Jugurtha immediately had Adherbal executed as well as all Romans who had aided him in the defense of Cirta. Now, the Pax Romana didn't exist just yet, but Rome still took a hard line against anyone who dared to harm her citizens. So in 112 BCE the Jugurthine War was declared. We're not going to go into any great detail of the Jugurthine War, suffice it to say that Rome won, it lasted until 105 BCE, and that some historians see this war as the true beginning of the fall of the Roman Republic. Gaius Marius was the victorious general and consul of the Jugurthine War (and also the Cimbrian War we're going to talk about next) and he would use his successes in these, and other wars, to try and seize greater power in Rome. That brings us to the Cimbrian War. Although, to be perfectly clear, these two wars happened at, pretty much, the same time. The Jugurthine War was 112 to 105 BCE and the Cimbrian War was 113 to 101 BCE, and Gaius Marius fought in both of them. Dude must have had the speed force to be in both places at once.  The Cimbrian Wars were another war in a long line of “Rome didn't intend to conquer this region, but an ally called for help and they definitely planned on staying after they won the war”. According to Roman sources the Cimbrian peoples came down from the north and, eventually, attacked the Roman allied Celtic federation the Taurisci, who asked Rome for aid against the Cimbrians. One of the interesting things about the Cimbrian War was that, after an initial victory against the Roman general and consul Gnaeus Papirius Carbo the Cimbrians were perfectly poised to carry their invasion into Italy itself, but instead of doing so they turned and pushed their way into Gaul (modern day France). The war against the Cimbri was an unmitigated disaster until Marius came in and shored up the Roman strategy. Marius, it is interesting to note, was the uncle of Julius Caesar. Famed for being the worst hostage and the best knife practice dummy in history. The Cimbrian War would end with Roman victory and would also spark the rivalry between Gaius Marius and Lucius Cornelius Sulla Felix which would eventually lead to the first of Rome's great Civil Wars which would see Sulla march on Rome and see Marius outlawed and exiled, albeit very briefly. I said earlier that there were two major wars during the end of the 2nd century BCE. There were actually 3. The Third being the Second Servile War that took place from 104 until 100 BCE on the island of Sicily. Servile War was the name that Rome gave, or that historians gave, to the three large scale slave uprisings that occurred during the time of the Roman Republic. If you're wondering where Spartacus is, he won't be around until the Third Servile War. The reason to bring up the Second Servile War is that this one also involved our good friend Gaius Marius. He was not one of the generals in this war, but he was in northern Africa trying to recruit aid for the war with the Cimbri from the Roman province of Bithynia in Asia Minor. There, after discovering that King Nicodemus III had no one to spare for Rome as all able bodied men had been enslaved by tax collectors, the Senate issued an edict stating that no Roman ally could be enslaved. This led to discontent on the island of Sicily as several hundred slaves were freed, but many were not as they were not from Roman allied states. This, combined with the abuses that were rampant in Roman Republic slavery led to a massive, and ultimately futile, uprising against the Republic.   Now, Rome and the Kingdom of Pontus, which had been declared in 281 BCE and had been ruled over by a string of Kings all named Mithradates were neighbors across the Anatolia, but during the Cimbrian and Jugurthine Wars they, frankly, had nothing to do with each other. Rome had some interests in the area due to their alliance with Nocodemus and the Kingdom of Bithynia, but they were very occupied with the Cimbrian War, the Jugurthan War, the Second Servile War, and then in the beginning of the 1st century BCE, the Social Wars that they fought against former, autonomous, allies living on the Italian peninsula (the Social War also ended in Roman victory).  With the beginning of the Social War Mithradates VI saw the oppurtunity to expand further into the Anatolia and allied with Tigranes I of Armenia and declared war against the Roman client state of Cappadocia. Mithradates and Tigranes were quickly able to conquer Cappadocia and expel Nicodemus from Bithynia. When Rome heard about this they demanded that both kings be restored to their thrones and then, stupidly, urged those kings to go to war against Pontus and Armenia. Mithradates responded to this aggression by conquering Cappadocia and Bithynia and conquering most of Roman Asia with about a year. Once Rome was no longer distracted by the Social War they would turn their attention to Pontus and Mithradates, although it would take almost 2 years for Rome to mobilize armies against Mithradates.  See, at first the Roman general Sulla was placed in charge of the forces against Pontus, but political backbiting from Publius Sulpicius Rufus, a political opponent of Sulla, almost saw the army taken from him and placed in the hands of his rival Marius. Sulla responded to this threat by marching into Rome with his forces and taking control by force, forcing Marius into a brief exile. Mithradates would take the delay in Rome's response to carry out the event that would come to be called the Asiatic Vespers. The Vespers were a genocide targeted all Roman and otherwise Latin speaking peoples in the western Anatolia The genocide were a calculated response to the Roman declaration of war. It was meant to force cities to take a side: "no city that did his bidding now could ever hope to be received back into Roman allegiance". The killings took place probably in the first half of the year 88 BC, although precise dating is impossible. Valerius Maximus indicates a death toll of approximately 80,000, while Plutarch claims a death toll of 150,000. The reported numbers, according to fragments of Dio, are however probably exaggerated. They were planned, with Mithridates writing secretly to regional satraps and leaders to kill all Italian residents (along with wives, children, and freedmen of Italian birth) thirty days after the day of writing. Mithridates furthermore offered freedom to slaves which informed on their Italian masters and debt relief to those who slew their creditors. Assassins and informers would share with the Pontic treasury half the properties of those who were killed. Ephesus, Pergamon, Adramyttion, Caunus, Tralles, Nysa, and the island of Chios were all scenes of atrocities. Many of these cities were under the control of tyrants, and many of the inhabitants enthusiastically fell upon their Italian neighbours, who were blamed "for the prevailing climate of aggressive greed[,] acquisitiveness[,] and... malicious litigation". Based on this we can see the initial uprising against Roman rule in the region as a kind of class uprising against oppressors. This brings us to an important discussion about the use of violence in social revolutions. Violence is, and always will be, a necessary tool in creating social change. However, there will always be a line that should not be crossed.  Mithradates, in inciting enslaved peoples to rise up against their masters and in debtors to kill their creditors, was based as fuck. That's some capital G, capital S good shit. Those are the oppressors. Those are the people committing violence against the people of the Anatolia. Political violence SHOULD be directed at the people in positions of authority, especially if those people are using that authority to oppress marginalized communities. The part where the morality starts to slough off like flesh off a 5 day old corpse is when the WOMEN and CHILDREN start to be killed. The First Mithradatic War (there would be two others) would begin immediately after Rome heard of these massacres. The war would run from 89 BCE until 85 BCE and would, ultimately, end in Roman victory. The war ended with the signing of the treaty Dardanos and the end result was status quo ante bellum. Which is a Latin phrase that basically means. Everything is the same as it was before the war. Mithradates retreated back to Pontus and everything that had been a Roman client state returned to being so.  Of course none of this would bring back to roughly 80,000 Roman and Latin speaking civilians that had been killed during the Vespers, but necromancy doesn't exist and revivify can only be cast within a minute after death anyway.  That's it for this week folks.

fWotD Episode 2509: Attalus I Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of the featured Wikipedia article every day.The featured article for Monday, 18 March 2024 is Attalus I.Attalus I (Ancient Greek: Ἄτταλος), surnamed Soter (Greek: Σωτήρ, "Savior"; 269–197 BC) was the ruler of the Ionian Greek polis of Pergamon (modern-day Bergama, Turkey) and the larger Pergamene Kingdom from 241 BC to 197 BC. He was the adopted son of King Eumenes I, whom he succeeded, and was the first of the Attalid dynasty to assume the title of king, sometime around 240 to 235 BC. He was the son of Attalus and his wife Antiochis.Attalus won an important victory, the Battle of the Caecus River, over the Galatians, a group of migratory Celtic tribes from Thrace, who had been plundering and exacting tribute throughout most of Asia Minor for more than a generation. The victory was celebrated with a triumphal monument at Pergamon (The Dying Gaul) and Attalus taking the name of "Soter" and the title of king. He participated in the first and second Macedonian Wars against Philip V of Macedon as a loyal ally of the Roman Republic, although Pergamene participation was ultimately rather minor in these wars. He conducted numerous naval operations throughout the Aegean, gained the island of Aegina for Pergamon during the first war and Andros during the second, twice narrowly escaping capture at the hands of Philip V. During his reign, Pergamon also repeatedly struggled with the neighboring Seleucid Empire to the east, resulting in both successes and setbacks.Attalus styled himself as a protector of the freedoms of the Greek cities of Anatolia and portrayed himself as the champion of Greeks against barbarians. He funded art and monuments in Pergamon and in Greek cities he sought to cultivate as allies. He died in 197 BC at the age of 72, shortly before the end of the second war, having suffered an apparent stroke while addressing a Boeotian war council some months before. He and his wife Apollonis were admired for their rearing of their four sons. He was succeeded as king by his son Eumenes II.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:55 UTC on Monday, 18 March 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Attalus I on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm Arthur Neural.

Today, Jim, John, and Lonaiah submerse into one of history's darkest moments and uncover the sinister connections between ancient prophecies, satanic rituals, and the Holocaust. Continuing into the exploration of the mysterious altar of Zeus, known as the throne of Satan, and its eerie linkage to the atrocities committed during World War II, they discover how the threads of history, biblical prophecy, and occult practices weave together a narrative that led to one of the most horrifying events of the 20th century. With the scriptural and historical insights that have brought us from the ancient city of Pergamon to the notorious grounds of Auschwitz, we ask: What is the significance of Hitler's final act on Walpurgis Night, the most important Satanic night of the year, and how does it symbolize a sacrificial culmination of his reign of terror? But more importantly, what does scripture point to? #HistoryUnveiled #HolocaustMysteries #SatanicRituals #ProphecyRevealed #HitlersLastSacrifice #WalpurgisNight #AncientAltars #BiblicalProphecies #WWIIHiddenSecrets #AuschwitzHistory #SpiritualWarfare #OccultHistory #MysteryOfPergamon #AntichristSymbols #TheFinalOffering #TheFinalHourPodcast #TheFinalHour #TFH #EndTimesPodcast

Just like today, our ancient ancestors would utilize magic through the use of amulets, talismans and other materials. Some of these we have to this day, and many are on display in museums around the world- amazing snapshots of magical beliefs of a bygone age. But these objects have much to tell us not only about the sorts of magic we used to do, but the spiritual and magical ecosystems from where they were produced. Helping us examine these amazing ancient magical artefacts is an Archeologist of Ancient Magic- Dr. Kirsten Dzwiza!

Dr. Tony Evans delves into the authoritative nature of Jesus Christ, symbolized by a sharp two-edged sword that brings both blessings and corrections. By examining the church at Pergamon, he cautions against compromising core values and accepting false teachings of the world we live in.

Rome hoped that the Peace of Apamea would instill some sort of order over the eastern Mediterranean, allowing them to return to Italy after decades of warfare. Yet the vacuum of power left behind in a post-Seleucid Asia Minor would lead to fierce competition, with those like Eumenes II of Pergamon and Pharnaces I of Pontus waging war against their neighbors. The desire of the Achaean League to dominate the Peloponnese would lead to the end of an independent Sparta and the butting of heads with the Republic. While this was happening abroad, the consequences of Rome's new role as hegemon over the Mediterranean would begin to rear its ugly head on the Senate floor, and the final years of the 180s would see the departure of three key figures of the day: Hannibal Barca, Philopoemen of Megalopolis, and Scipio Africanus.

For an aspiring medic it was a dream assignment- official team doctor to the gladiators of Pergamon. The top names in the arena were worth a lot of money and it was up to young Galen to keep them alive. Slash and stab wounds had to be closed quickly and cleanly and diets devised to maintain the perfect balance of fat and muscle for the finest fighters. It gave Galen unrivalled insight into the workings of the human body, knowledge he would use as he went on to treat emperors and write the textbooks that would guide doctors for hundreds of years.Mary Beard traces the career of Rome's greatest medic from its highs to its lowest of lows- the moment when a great fire swept through Rome, threatening to wipe out his life's work.Producer: Alasdair CrossExpert Contributors: Helen King, Open University and Matthew Nicholls, Oxford UniversitySpecial thanks to the British Museum and the Parco Archeolgico del Colosseo, Roma

Transcript Address: https://share.descript.com/view/OsaNnueVOjEThe Sect of Nicolaus of Pergamum or possibly Antioch, the Nicolaitans, is mentioned throughout the Bible. The theology of Nicolaus was at odds with theology and ideas of the Early Church writers and even John the Evangelist, writer of the Gospel of John and the Book of Revelations. We will see that the ideas of the Nicolaitans were complex and raised many interesting and difficult questions for the earliest Christians.#christianpodcast #podcast #christian #faith #pope #rome #catholic #podcastersofinstagram #jesus #god #christianity #bible #christianpodcasts #church #podcasts #biblestudy #jesuschrist #christianinfluencer #podcasting Episode 001E – The Council of Jerusalem https://www.spreaker.com/user/10740198/001e-the-council-of-jerusalemThe Sect of the Nicolaitans and Nicolaus, the Deacon in Jerusalem – Adolf von Harnackhttps://www.jstor.org/stable/1195080You can learn more about the History of Papacy and subscribe at all these great places:https://atozhistorypage.start.pageTo Subscribe: https://www.spreaker.com/show/history-of-the-papacy-podcast_1Email Us: steve@atozhistorypage.comSupport Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/historyofthepapacyParthenon Podcast Network: parthenonpodcast.comThe History of the Papacy on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@atozhistoryHelp out the show by ordering these books from Amazon!https://smile.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1MUPNYEU65NTFMusic Provided by:"Sonatina in C Minor" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)"Funeral March for Brass" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)"Crusade Heavy Perfect Loop" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Agnus Dei X - Bitter Suite Kevin MacLeaod (incomptech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/Begin Transcript:This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4899207/advertisement

The Attalid dynasty that ruled over the city of Pergamon (modern Bergama) is the first Greek monarchy to arise outside of the Successor Kingdoms. Founded by a eunuch named Philetaerus in western Asia Minor, the Attalids went from small regional power to major player in under a generation, in part thanks to their alliance with the Roman Republic. Their smart fiscal policies and unusually stable family life allowed them to become extremely wealthy, sponsoring buildings and works of art that celebrated their role as the defenders of Greek civilization against barbarians like the Galatians.

What is it like to go from a cubicle to being the CEO of your own company? Five years ago, Ellen Yin quit her corporate marketing job without a backup plan. She then turned a single $300 freelance contract as a marketing consultant into a seven-figure business. In this conversation, Ellen is sharing what that journey looked like for her, how some independent business owners go into entrepreneurship without realizing they want to run a business in the first place, and how you can begin embracing your inner CEO. Plus, we're discussing the science of asking questions and the one mistake you might be making when you close out your emails!The Independent Business podcast is powered by HoneyBook, the all-in-one platform for anyone with clients.
