David says Josephus was a jew. David is a liar by history.
Sam has researched. Did David or Sam lie.
When do we hear that St. Peter was Bishop? In 42 C.E.? No! In the first century? No! Once you have become proficient at history, and have the span of 'history' from before B.C.E., to Fourth century down pat, then you will have quite an over-view of what actually transpired. The further away from the 1st century C.E. you get, the more you see 'historians' and Church Fathers trying to pre-date people and events which they have created later on to help establish the legitimacy of Christianity. This can best be seen in the Church's procession of Bishops. They date St. Peter to the year 42 as the first Bishop of Rome (he is a fictional character).
Next, Irenaeus, Eusebius, and 'St. Jerome' say that 'Linus' was Bishop of Rome after St. Peter in 67. Tertullian and Rufinus say that 'Clement' was Bishop in 68. Now, this was said for a purpose. Julius Piso (Arrius Piso's son), wrote as St. Clement of Rome in about 110 C.E., the Second century! By saying that 'Clement' was Bishop of Rome in 68 they also pre-dated Justus' writings. Not only was that done for the obvious reason, but for another also. But you would think that to posthumously honor Julius by making his character 'Clement' Bishop of Rome would be another reason, but in fact, Julius died in opposition to the family. So, to make his character 'Bishop of Rome' was to ridicule his memory! This is the snide way that 'the family' dealt with those who didn't go along with them.
THE NEW ACHILLES
Both the family (the Pisos) and the Jews joked by calling Arrius Piso 'Swift of Foot' knowing that he was also 'Nicon' (Victor). He is called 'Nicholas' from 'Nicon', 'Nicholas' being Greek for 'Balaam'. That's why the Jews made the legend of the 'Lamed Vov', it's just 'Balaam' re-arranged in Hebrew. And he was also the New Achilles, because his Jesus story made him strong, but he too had an Achilles' heel. Arrius and his family had joked and bragged so much about what they were doing, that eventually they would be found out - and they both expected and anticipated it.
Why was Jesus the 'Bright Morning Star'? This was another hint. Because Arrius Piso had become the new 'Achilles' and Achilles' spear was the 'Bright Evening star', Arrius' spear (Jesus) was made the 'Bright Morning Star'!!! For more on this, read Homer's Iliad.
They took their enemies' names and attributes and used them to jokingly re-enforce their Jesus story. They took the teachings of Hillel the Pharisee (the main teacher of the new humanistic Pharisaic School), and changed them to fit their new Roman religion. Just check the Jewish 'Pirkei Aboth'. Also, they did a real job on their enemies in the Jewish/Humanistic Camp during their war with the Jews. Especially, one Rabbi Yohanan ben Zakai.
'THE RIDICULE OF RABBI YOHANAN BEN ZAKAI'
The Piso family ridiculed this famous Jewish leader, who was the youngest student of Hillel the Pharisee, for he was a leader in the war against the Romans who wrote the New Testament! 'Zakai' spelled or translated into Greek is 'Zacchaeus'. We find this spelling of the name in Luke Chapter 19, verses 5 & 8. Also, the same spelling is in the apocryphal book 'The Infancy of Jesus Christ', which is attributed to 'Saint Thomas'. The writers of the New Testament make a further joke of ridiculing the Rabbi by saying that John the Baptist was the son of Zacharias, because translated, 'Yohanan ben Zakai' is John the Righteous. But even more, they incorporate 'Zachi' (Zakai) with 'Arias' (Arrius)! 'ben' is 'son of', so, its 'John, son of Zakai/Arrius'!!!
It's not only a joke, but the truth too! I've just explained the joke. The truth was that 'John the Baptist' was the (fictional) 'son' or invention of Arrius Piso. Another cruel thing about this joke is that in the story 'John the Baptist' came to pave the way for Christianity, by making Rabbi Zakai 'John the Baptist' in the story, they make him (who opposed the Pisos) to help pave the way for Christianity. Then, arrius writing as Josephus (in order to re-write history), inserts the name 'Zacharias' (that he made up), into 'history'. For Arrius Piso, such was the power of conquering Rome.
'RHETORICAL DEVICES'
The Pisos and their relatives were taught rhetoric from childhood. And they had every book on anything available to them, there was nothing that was ever thought upon and written down that wasn't at their convenience. So, is it any wonder that we find Arrius Piso writing as Josephus? And even writing as Josephus' enemy and critic Apion! For, as Apion, he can say things to ridicule the Jews that the character Josephus wouldn't dare.
Later, Flavius Arrianus wrote as Ptolemy and he also wrote as his character's teacher - Epictetus! This was to further confuse people so that they would not see the consistency of the plot. For, Epictetus is a made-up name with no other historical confirmation, whereas other 'real' people even by their playing their characters by using other names, are confirmable. By the way, the name that Flavius Arrianus chose to be his teacher was a joke and consistent with their rule of hiding names and meanings by switching certain letters. 'Epictetus' is 'Epistolus', because the letters 'S' and 'C' were inter-changeable, as were the letters 'T' and 'L', this by their numerical value of '3' in Piso's Greek small number system. His 'teacher' was 'Epistolus' (he who writes epistles), and the name 'Epistolus' like the word 'epistle' in Greek contains the name 'Piso'.
'HOW THE DEVIL GOT HIS LOOKS'
There was no 'Devil' before Piso made him as the enemy of Jesus. The Hebrew books did originally mention 'Satan', but the word meant the bad nature or disposition that a person may have at times - not a 'Devil' as the N.T. describes. And of course, the concept of 'Hell' was borrowed from the fictional place that the Greeks called 'Hades'.
1. He's red. They were joking about the family name of 'Ahenobarbus' which by Suetonius' reference denotes the color 'red' because of the ruddy color of the Ahenobarborus men's beards. 'Ahenobarbus', was the name of the family line through which Nero's father came from. 'Red' is also a family nickname, which, was changed around by switching inter-changeable letters. Those names include; 'Kokkes', 'Sosses', 'Cocces'.
2. Horns on his head. Since the 'Devil' is Piso himself, and Piso is the Beast ('ippos') in 'Revelations', his son Julius, gives the 'beast' 10 horns (which are meant to allude to another family name coming from Cleopatra Selene's father 'Aulus', meaning 'pipe', 'flute', or 'horn'). This, in 'Revelations' 13:1.
3. Pitch-fork. In 'Acts of the Apostles' Arrius Piso makes his 'pitches' with his 'forked'-tongue for his new religion, saying; "Come one, come all, see the great creation - 'Jesus'."
4. He's got a pointed tail (tale). Of course the Devil (Piso) has a pointed tale - the Jesus story! It's pointed because he makes jokes, puns, and ridicules his enemies in it!
5. Cloven feet. 'Clovis', which is a form of the family name 'Clodius' ('Claudius'). We also get the association betweenSt. Patty 'Calpernius', the 'Sham-rock' ('Shammi', 'Petros', 'rock'), and the 'Four-leafed' clover. This comes later, when St. Augustine (and his brother?) St. Patrick go to Ireland to drive out the Druids (snakes), and establish Christianity there.
6. Forked-tongue. Of course, the Devil (Piso) speaks with a forked-tongue (and he is 'double-minded' as the N.T. says), because he lies. The American Indians never said; "White man speak with forked-tongue," except in movies. Because an 'inner-circle' member made that up as a joke. 'White man' is 'Albinus', a Piso family name. Also, they made the association with the snake having a forked-tongue, alluding back to the snake lying to Eve. The reference to 'Forked-tongue' can be found in the New Testament itself, in Acts 2:3.
'LUCIFER AND THE DEVIL'
Later in Christology, the name 'Lucifer' became synonymous with the Christian 'Satan' or 'The Devil' (Piso's Devil - himself!), because like 'Lucius' (of light), 'Lucifer' means 'Shining one'.
This 'Shining one' is of 'pomp and glory' i.e. 'Vain'. Check the name 'Lucifer' in Isaiah 14:12 (use an Analytical Concordance). In the war with the Jews, even those who were newly 'converted' from paganism were used to fight the Jews. That's why we find in those certain New Testament books 'anti-Semitic' passages and can better find when those books were written. Should it strike anyone as funny that this new anti-Semitic religion called Christianity and it books should come at a time when Rome was at war with the Jews?
In giving the family lineage, Plutarch (Trajan) affirms Arrius' descent from the person whom the 'Hercules' character had been modeled after (there is a theory that the Greek/Roman gods were modeled after real people), thereby exposing Arrius' license by relation to use the attributes of Hercules (including titles) in the synthesis of the Jesus character. Plutarch was Arrius Piso's son-in-law, the Roman Emperor Trajan! In 'Plutarch's' Alexander (that is, 'Alexander the Great'), Trajan says that Alexander the Great was descended from 'Hercules'. And of course, we find that Arrius Piso was descended from Alexander the Great's brother 'Lagos'. Who was the 'real-life' person who was Arrius Piso's ancestor and the person from whom the 'Hercules' character was modeled after? Perhaps this person was 'Heraclitus of Ephesus' circa 500 B.C.E. He was a Greek philosopher who studied Epistemology. The very name 'Hercules' means 'Glorius gift of Hera' ('Glorius gift of Hera-clitus'?). His compounded name is said to prove that he (Hercules) was a real man (person).
MORE ABOUT ARRIUS PISO AND JESUS
Why does the traditional Jesus have a beard? Nowhere in the New Testament does it say that Jesus had a beard! The word 'beard' is not to be found in it! So, where did his beard come from? It will be pointed out that 'holy men' in those days did not cut their hair. The source for that information? 'Josephus'. According to the New Testament, 'Jesus' did not have a beard. However, the person who 'played' Jesus did! Arrius Piso, as Josephus, had a beard. That's why the traditional Jesus has a beard. Because for whatever was lacking in their fictional character, all they had to do was go to the real-life personage behind the character to draw those extra characteristics needed to make their character seem larger than life.
"WILL THE 'REAL' CHRISTIAN GOD PLEASE STAND UP!"
So, who is this mysterious Christian God? "CAESAR!"
He (Jesus/Josephus/Arrius Piso) was 'the likeness of God' (2nd Cor. 4), because he was related to the deified Caesars! Great Caesar's holy ghost! Can it be that even today, we live in a nation under Caesar?
The deified Caesars include: 'Julius Caesar', 'Augustus Caesar', 'Claudius Caesar', 'Vespasian', and 'Titus'.
It would seem most possible that Cneius Calpernius Piso was the son of Julius Caesar and Calpurnia Piso, thereby drawing a direct line to Arrius Piso.
