From the Early Christians to Christopher Nolan. What if the famous Magic Square Sator, engraved two millenia ago on the walls of Pompeii shortly before the eruption of Vesuvius, attributed to the Early Christians, and the inspiration for Christopher Nolan's film Tenet, released in 2020, had been announcing the troubled and decisive times we are living? Sator, Arepo, Tenet, Opera, Rotas: a 25 letters mandala of which numerous versions dot ancient, medieval or modern Europe, and a two thousand years old mystery. Like a living heart where ancient traditions and religions converge with contemporary discoveries in physics, such as the reversibility of Time and the question of Artificial Intelligence, the Magic Square takes us through the arcane of the Tarot, Gnosis, Hebrew Wisdom and their links to Egypt, Christian Mysticism and the Renaissance. It also allows us to decipher for the first time the work of Christopher Nolan, also director of The Prestige, Batman, Interstellar, Inception and Oppenheimer. In the center of the Sator Square, a cross is formed by Tenet, the name of the director of the CIA at the time of September 11, 2001. Space and Time, Eternity, the destiny of Human kind, its quest for freedom are simultaneously hidden and revealed in the Sator Square, as well as C.G.Jung's necessary reconciliation of the opposites at the crossing point between the Pisces era and the Aquarian era we are encountering. "We live in a twilight World" is the device of Tenet. But the Sator Square also announced us the dawn of a new one.

The Great Unspoken in Jewish-Christian dialogue is Jesus’s conception. It’s a topic avoided even by many who accept his resurrection. This book tackles the issue. Did Jesus exist before Bethlehem? Who was mysterious Melchizedek? What does Psalm 110 really say? How far do the variant genealogies of Matthew and Luke really make sense? Was Mary a peasant or a princess? And what are the options for Jesus’s paternity? Just how Jewish was he really? Just as the author’s Messiah ben Joseph examined the ancient origins of the sacrificial Messiah promised to Joseph, so Jesus: The Incarnation of the Word looks at the origins of the Zadokite Messiah. BACK COVER REVIEWS David Mitchell’s Jesus: The Incarnation of the Word is a fascinating read. While its title seemingly rehearses well-trodden paths that need no further attention, that presumption could not be more misguided. The author is deeply conversant in the Hebrew Bible, Septuagint, Second Temple Jewish literature, Rabbinic writings, and early Christian and Patristic texts. All are brought into service to offer intriguing solutions to various difficulties arising from the Davidic (and priestly!) genealogies of Joseph and Mary and the relationship of Jesus to Melchizedek and the Angel of the Lord. Readers will find this a rewarding study. Michael S. Heiser, PhD (Hebrew Studies, Wisconsin) Bestselling author of The Unseen Realm Executive Director and Professor, Awakening School of Theology Jesus: The Incarnation of the Word brings readers on an eye-opening journey through Old and New Testament texts, genealogies, and extra-biblical sources ancient and modern to probe the core question distinguishing Christianity from other faiths: is Jesus God in the flesh? With meticulous attention to detail, David C. Mitchell applies his exegetical acumen and extensive expertise in second temple and Rabbinic literature to uncover the remarkable breadth of the Bible’s testimony about the Messiah and its long history of discussion. Erudite, witty, and eminently readable, this volume will enlighten, challenge, and inspire as it reveals how deep and wide are the Bible’s messianic promises fulfilled in Jesus of Nazareth.

This book is about language that is designed to mean what it does not seem to mean. Ciphers and codes conceal messages and protect secrets. Symbol and magic hide meanings to delight or imperil. Languages made to baffle and confuse let insiders talk openly without being understood by thosebeyond the circle.Barry Blake looks at these and many more. He explores the history and uses of the slangs and argots of schools and trades. He traces the centuries-old cants used by sailors and criminals in Britain, among them Polari, the mix of Italian, Yiddish, and slang once spoken among strolling players andcircus folk and taken up by gays in the twentieth century. He examines the sacred languages of ancient cults and religions, uncovers the workings of onomancy, spells, and gematria, looks into the obliqueness of allusion and parody, and celebrates the absurdities of euphemism and jargon.Secret Language takes the reader on fascinating excursions down obscure byways of language, ranging across time and culture. With revelations on every page it will entertain anyone with an urge to know more about the most arcane and curious uses of language.
