Hold and Behold the Ancient of Day
When the four world powers gone down inna blaze
False lion & leopard, the bear & the beast
All loose dem powers to the King of Peace


Verse 1


Daniel 2 & 7 tell the story
Of Babylon, Medeo Persian, & Grecian monarchy
And the Roman Empire in all its’ glory
How they’ll all will fall in the course of history
And who will survive it is no mystery
The son of David and his ancient monarchy



Verse 2
Search Isaiah and Amos chapter nine
And you will fine
The King of Peace shall rule mankind
He has conquered death as Melchizedek
Just give Psalm 110 a simple little check
The Ark of the Covenant reach Ethiopian through the first Menelek
So Sellassie I Jah I could never neglect



Verse 3


Free and united Africa shall stand
To progress with love and cooperation
As the rightful home of the Black nation
As it was in the beginning so shall it be again
Jeremiah 23 a fulfil mi friend
 Ethiopian is Eden Earthly heaven
The Conquering Lion is a living legend
So rise Israel, rise black children



In Daniel and the revelations as well as other books of the King James Version of the Bible, there are numerous prophecies that fore told the rise and fall of the different world powers. The prophesies of Daniel 2 and 7 as well as those of revelation 5, 12, 13, 17, 19 and in fact the entire book. In this chapter I will explore some of the prophecies that predict the fall of white supremacy and the establishment of Modern Ethiopianism as Zion restored.

Dan 2:31-45
31 "You looked, O king, and there before you stood a large statue-an enormous, dazzling statue, awesome in appearance. 32 The head of the statue was made of pure gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, 33 its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay. 34 While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed them. 35 Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were broken to pieces at the same time and became like chaff on a threshing floor in the summer. The wind swept them away without leaving a trace. But the rock that struck the statue became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth.

36 "This was the dream, and now we will interpret it to the king. 37 You, O king, are the king of kings. The God of heaven has given you dominion and power and might and glory; 38 in your hands he has placed mankind and the beasts of the field and the birds of the air. Wherever they live, he has made you ruler over them all. You are that head of gold.

39 "After you, another kingdom will rise, inferior to yours. Next, a third kingdom, one of bronze, will rule over the whole earth. 40 Finally, there will be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron-for iron breaks and smashes everything-and as iron breaks things to pieces, so it will crush and break all the others. 41 Just as you saw that the feet and toes were partly of baked clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom; yet it will have some of the strength of iron in it, even as you saw iron mixed with clay. 42 As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle. 43 And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay.

44 "In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever. 45 This is the meaning of the vision of the rock cut out of a mountain, but not by human hands-a rock that broke the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver and the gold to pieces.
NIV
Dan 7:2-15
2 Daniel spoke and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of heaven brake forth upon the great sea.
3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand upon two feet as a man; and a man's heart was given to it.
5 And, behold, another beast, a second, like to a bear; and it was raised up on one side, and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.
6 After this I beheld, and, lo, another, like a leopard, which had upon its back four wings of a bird; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.
7 After this I saw in the night-visions, and, behold, a fourth beast, terrible and powerful, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth; it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another horn, a little one, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things. 
9 I beheld till thrones were placed, and one that was ancient of days did sit: his raiment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames, (and) the wheels thereof burning fire.
10 A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousands of thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
11 I beheld at that time because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake; I beheld even till the beast was slain, and its body destroyed, and it was given to be burned with fire.
12 And as for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and a time.
13 I saw in the night-visions, and, behold, there came with the clouds of heaven one like unto a son of man, and he came even to the ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.
14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
15 As for me, Daniel, my spirit was grieved in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me. ASV
Dan 7:16-27
16 I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth concerning all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things.
17 These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, that shall arise out of the earth.
18 But the saints of the Most High shall receive the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.
19 Then I desired to know the truth concerning the fourth beast, which was diverse from all of them, exceeding terrible, whose teeth were of iron, and its nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet;
20 and concerning the ten horns that were on its head, and the other (horn) which came up, and before which three fell, even that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake great things, whose look was more stout than its fellows.
21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;
22 until the ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the Most High, and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be a fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all the kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
24 And as for the ten horns, out of this kingdom shall ten kings arise: and another shall arise after them; and he shall be diverse from the former, and he shall put down three kings.
25 And he shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High; and he shall think to change the times and the law; and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and half a time.
26 But the judgment shall be set, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.
27 And the kingdom and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High: his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.
ASV

These visions were received inn the time of Babylonian Supremacy in the World. The head of gold as well as the lion with eagles wing represented Babylon & Nebuchadnezzar. The lion and the gold represents the splendour of the empire, the wings represents the speed at which it rose to power. The Babylonian Empire rose to power In 605 bce.

It fell in 539 bce. to the might of the Medeo Persian Empire under Darius and Cyrus the Great. The bible refer to Cyrus as the anointed, a title synonymous to Messiah or Christ. The bear that represented the third power hand three ribs in his mouth signifying the three powers it had to defeat to become dominant Babylon , Egypt and Libya it rose itself up on one leg the stand on two, it started to rise at Medes then it allied with Persia to concretise its power.

The next world power was the Greece of Alexander the Great Plunderer He conquered Medes and Persia in 331BC at the battle of Arbela. Greece was represented by the belly and thigh of brass in Daniel 2 and the leopard with four heads and four horns in Daniel 7. This power was swift in its conquests as symbolised by its four wings which along with the four heads also symbolized the four divisions of Alexander’s’ kingdom after his death. The Kingdom was divided among his four leading generals: Lysimachus, Ptolemy, Seleucus, and Cassander.

The last most dreadful world power was that of Rome. Rome conquered Greece 168 bce. at the battle of Pynda. This last world power would be extremely wicked and would make war with the saints of the most high. The iron feet of Rome represent the might of Rome. Rome ruled as a single power for approximately four hundred (400) years between 351 and 483 bce. it was divided into ten kingdoms. The ten toes of the image and the ten horns of the beast represented the ten countries of the Divided Roman Empire:

 

ORIGINAL NAMES       MODERN NAMES

Alemani     Germany
Franks     France
Burgundians    Switzerland
Suevi      Portugal
Anglo-Saxons    England
Visigoths     Spain
Lombards     Italy
Heruli
Vandals
Ostrogoths

Three powers Heruli, Vandal and Ostrogoths were expelled from the Roman legion before 498bce. 534 bce, 538 bce. respectively. This happen when Rome wanted to rule as supreme church and state, those three nations opposed the merger of church and state. The three horns were plucked out to facilitate the mighty power of the Roman Catholic Church. The religio-political power of the Roman Catholic Church rule supreme until1798 ce. In the days of the Reformation. This was when Martin Luther arrested the Pope, and the Vatican cease to be a sovereign state. This is the prophetic wound that the beast would suffer.

The wound was healed when the Vatican was again given sovereignty by Mussolini in 1929 in anticipation for Haile Sellassie I coronation in 1930.
At this time Pope Pious XI had form an alliance with Mussolini. Five years after Haile Sellassie I coronation, Pope Pious XI send Mussolini to Ethiopia to capture the Arc of the Covenant and destroy the Ethiopian Orthodox Church.

It is widely believed in religious circles that whichever state posses the Holy Arc has the blessing of Jah and will be the center for the reestablishment of Jah righteous levity on Earth.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This beastlike power continues as white supremacy, the powers that instituted chattel slavery, European colonization. This power is now concentrated in the new amalgamation of Europe the U.S.A.

The prophesy goes that these powers all will fall to the Ancient of Days. Ethiopia represents the oldest monarchy in history, dating back to Emperor Ori of Ethiopia 4470 bce. Ethiopia is the first country mentioned in the bible, it has the oldest fossil. Ethiopia represents the birthplace of man, the origin of religion, science, visual arts and civilization in general. This is where the principles for the creation of Zion, paradise on Earth will be revised and promoted as Haile Sellassie I  national and international plan of  Modern Ethiopianism.

In the book Sabbath Roots the African Connection Charles E. Bradford former President of the North American Division of Seventh Day Adventist Ethiopia is mentioned favourable numerous times in the bible

The Arc of the Covenant has it’s Genesis in the mystery systems of Ethiopia and Egypt it is the same size as the stone chest or porphyry coffer in the Kings Chamber in ancient Egypt. The size is 2.5 cubit by 1.5 cubitsby1.5 cubits or 62.5 inches by 37.5 inches by 37.5 inches. Both  the chamber in the Pyramid and the Holy of Holies are the same size. The Idea of the Arc  left Egypt in the mind of Moses, and a replica with few modification was later made for the Israelites .

 The Arc of the Covenant left Israel with Menelek I, son of Solomon just before Israel destruction and capture by Babylon and the subsequent world powers. This happened at a time when Solomon had given into folly and Rehoboam and Jehoboam, his other son and Israel later rulers fell were not suited to be Kings of Zion.  The Arc of the Covenant symbolized the presence and protection of Yahweh. This is consistent with the fact that after Israel lost the Arc it fell to all the world powers but Ethiopia survived and overcame them all and neither Babylon, Medeo Persia, Greece, Rome nor Islam in all it’s glory could succeed in invading and colonizing Ethiopia.

 

 

 

 

 

 


Judaism flourished in Ethiopia until the time of Christ when the Ethiopian Minister of Finance went to Israel to worship and was converted by Philip to Christianity. Christianity then flourished in the palace of Ethiopia and was synthesized with Judaism and Ethiopian traditional religions to prepare the way for the manifestation of Christ in his Kingly Character as Haile Sellassie I.

Ying and Yang, negative and positive, male and female have always coexisted and balance out each other. Ellen G. White writes beautifully about a part of the Great controversy between Good and evil. Ra Un Nefer Amen in his books Metu Neter Volumes I & II Speaks of the Ausar, Auset Heru and Set Metaphorim which speaks of a King of Peace, Justice, Righteousness and Prosperity Ausar (whom the Greeks call him Osiris), his Wife Auset (whom the Greeks call her Isis) and their son Heru (whom the Greeks call Horus), and Set, Asars’ brother.

The story is a historic prophesy written in the Pyramids eons ago. It speaks of Set being jealous of his brother and orchestrates a plot to kill him and cut his body into fourteen pieces and disperse them. Auset with the spirit of Ausars’ fertility and her sisters’ psychic support conceived immaculately and brought forth Heru the Son of Ausars, who would fight ceaselessly with set but always end up in a stale mate. This stalemate would not end until Heru sort the advice of the oracle that advised him to use the system of set to defeat set on the basic of Equal right and justice enforced by the rule of law.

That author interpreted this to mean that the ancient wholistic system was established and flourishing until the evil mind of White Supremacy came in and destroyed and scatter the holy ancient the civilizations. The messiah will manifest and try to conquer the system but will not succeed until he uses the educating and information spreading power of telecommunication and the rule of International Laws and the United Nation to establish international morality and collective security.

This concur with the biblical prophesy in Joel 3vs. 2-18

“For the Lord jah sayeth… I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the Valley of Jehosaphat, and will plead with them their for my people and for my heritage Israel (Afrikans) whom they have scattered among the nation sand parted my lands.
as Revelation 19-vrs 15 -16 verse says” the King of Kings word shall be like a sword judging the nations”

The Rastafari interpretation of these scripture is linked to World War II. This Poem entitled The League of Nations by RasPadaItion sums it up excellently.

 
The League of Nations 
by RasPadaItion 

Punch line

He went to the League of Nations the predecessor of the UN
& Show dem di situation seh di war naa go end
Dem neva help him resist the invasion dem check seh a neva fi dem problem
But today it is us tomorrow it is you the match that was struck in Ethiopia shall burn Europe too
Haile Sellassie World of Judgement   today still stands true
Cause three years later came Armageddon the bloody World War II

Vs 1

When the serpent, Pope Pious the 11th, anointed and blessed Benito Mussolini di beast
Send him off to Ethiopia to war with Haile Sellassie I, Lamb Lion of the East
Occupied yet unconquered, For Five Years Ethiopia fast while Italy had its feast
Thus in 1935 the prophesies of revelation 16-19 began to fulfil
While the world leaders harden their hearts still
A case of might over right, no one cared for the weaker country’s plight
So scared and frighten, filled with selfish fright
The leaders of the world refused to help Jah in his fight
The day….
Rep. Punch line
Vs2

It was in California 1968 that he warned them bout dem discriminating philosophy
And tell them fi level out dem-stratified society
So equal rights and justice be enjoyed by every one
But still, dem ignore di lion’s instruction
So stand still, and watch dem destruction
While there’s downpression and suppression in any nation
 famine and pestilence run rampant pan di land
 Crime & violence threaten the life of everyone
And to all this, Jah gave the solution
 The day…
Repeat punch line
