A Fit with Daniel –
A commander and not a prince. Big difference. Mohammed is the king of the south. Fatimah is his daughter. His commander, Muawiyah, became the king of the north. Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan, a caliph of the Umayyad dynasty started by Muawiyah and a raiser of taxes, built the Dome of the Rock which is the abomination spoken of by Daniel.

A New Change With WordPress –
A real challenge for us old people. Oh no, not another change! I have to admit most of them are improvements but only after I figure out how it works. As soon as I learned how to copy a post, I had to learn how to duplicate it. That was not a good change.
A Greek Fire –
A significant passage in the Apocalypse. In defense of Constantinople they used Greek Fire on the Sea of Marmara which was like a sheet of glass and the year was 666. A sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name. Islam.

A Vision of Daniel –
A temple is desolated. What makes a beast a beast? What do they all have in common? The temple. Babylon destroyed the first temple. Greece desecrated the second. Rome destroyed the second. Islam is preventing the third. The Dome of the Rock is the abomination of desolation spoken of by Jesus.

A Difficult Answer –
A reasonable explanation. Why I don’t get a hearing aid. What? I can’t hear you. I don’t like what I’m hearing. There are a lot of things I am not doing just because I’m old. That is the way it should be. Can you hear me?
A Calendar –
A date, a mark, a beginning. A common year 44 BC. The Julian calendar preceded the Gregorian calendar which didn’t start until 1582. The Islamic calendar started in 622 CE and that would be 666 of the Julian calendar which was in effect at that time. The Hegira marks the beginning of Islam.

A Connection with Daniel –
A fit with history. Both John and Daniel have a beast with “ten horns”. Constantinople, the capital of a Christian empire that lasted a thousand years, fell to the Ottomans, the tenth dynasty of Islam. Dynasties counted by Islamicart.com which is no longer active. There is a hard copy of this.

A Success Not Clear –
A time to think about what is not working. Still looking for what might be considered a success. A little success at looking for what might be true. A little success at posting the results of my research. A little success with forum dialogues. Finally a little success at finding something I really enjoy.
A Historian –
A history of the Roman Empire by Gibbon. Go ahead, pick an Islamic calendar converter and put 46 in it. You get 666. 46 is the number Gibbon used. 46 years after the Hijri year Constantinople was attacked. A date is a mark. Gibbon notes the problems with dates.

A Common Year –
A new calendar starting in 622 would be 666 of the Julian Calendar starting with 44 BC. The Hijri year is 622 and the start of the Islamic calendar. A search of Daniel shows number refers to years. John knows Daniel is the place to go for clues. Follow the numbers.
