Subject: Great Pyramid Decoded

Bible Note: Greetings jazzartjack,

I fail to see where Isaiah 19:19-20 is mentioning a pyramid, and there is nothing that resembles a "Bible Code" here within the context of the passage. I'm not sure what exactly Peter Lemesurier is referring to, but it would be helpful to see what his intentions are. Does he have a website?

For a little more complete and responsible interpretation of the prophecy in Isaiah 19:1-25, John F. Walvoord's "Every Prophecy of the Bible" tells us on page 102..

"Isaiah predicted that the Egyptians would fight each other (v.2) and would "consult the idols and the spirits of the dead" (v.3). They would be conquered by "a fierce king" (v.4). The Nile River would dry up and "the reeds and rushes will wither" (v.6). God's continued judgment on the Egyptians, the destruction of their economy, and their lack of wisdom were spelled out (vv. 8-15). With their internal problems as well as lack of crops and lack of water, Egypt would be brought to desolation.

The prediction that Judah would rule over the Egyptians (vv. 16-17) may refer to the future Millennium as it does not seem to correspond to any event in history. Some of the cities in Egypt will use the language of Canaan (v. 18). In the time of the future kingdom, prophecy indicated that Egypt would turn to the Lord and worship Him. As a result, He would heal them from the plague (vv. 19-22)."

The Bible is not something in which we should look for mysterious "codes" in.. It would be doing Bible study a tremendous injustice to study the Bible in this way! The Bible is the "instruction manual" for a Christian to live their life and it is God's Word to humankind. If the Bible is realized to be God's Holy Word, then it can be studied in the appropriate way and in the way that it was intended to be studied. We should put an end to looking for "mysterious codes" in the Bible.
