*****NO, the capstone in masonry is the "All Seeing eye". It is the eye of Satan or eye of Horus.

"There is a lot of truth in the Bible and there is also a lot of fabricated BS."
*****Absolutely no fabrication. All true except for the parables that are described by jesus, and the Literal miracles happened. All of them. The Bible was written by 40 different authors, 66 different books, over 1,600 years and no contradictions or errors.....none.
"E Pluribus Unum," which also has 13 letters, means "Out of Many, One." This is a reference to God's Millennial promises to the dispersed tribes

The curious thing about this is if you look closely everything pertaining to ancient Egypt is BC while everything pertaining to the Holy Roman Empire is AD.
Well appart for the fact that the so called Holy Roman Empire is the name given for the Western Roman Empire after the Catholic Church fooled the Roman Senate by presenting the so called Donation of Constantine, where Constantine the Great supposedly donates Italy and the Western Empire to the Church. This will has been proven a forgery and was probably produced in the mid eight century. But it didn't stop the papal church in taking over the Curia and thereby most of Europe placing the pope between God and the French Merovingean emperor who in his turn would dominate the kings of Europe and so on, down to the common man and below. Jesus couldnot possibly have survived 800 years without changing his spiritual vessel?
And wasn't Ptolomy Greek? Which would make Jesus Roman through Cæsar, Egyptian through Cleopatra, Greek through Ptolomy and Jewish through his circumcision and faith. Oh my! Now that makes no sense at all.
the last king of the Ptolemaic dynasty of Egypt, who reigned, as a child, jointly with his mother Cleopatra VII of Egypt from September 2 44 BC to August, 30 BC, when he was killed on orders of Octavian, who would become the Roman emperor Augustus.
His mother Atia was the niece of Julius Caesar.
Since Octavius' father was a plebeian, Octavius himself was a plebeian, despite the fact that his mother, being Julius Caesar's niece, was a patrician.[note 4] Octavius gained patrician status when he was adopted by Julius Caesar in 44 BC.
Indeed but to say that the only known son of Julius Caesar, known to many as Caesarion or Ptolomaios or Ptolomy XV, who was killed by order of Octavian also called Augustus the Great in 30 BC, meaning Caesarion was a mere 17 years when he died.
Matthew states that Jesus was born during the reign of Caesar Augustus while Herod the Great was procurator or king of Judea. This means that Jesus could not be Caesarion. Jesus was born after 32 BC (twelve years before Herod's rebuilt the Temple), and no later than 4 BC when Herod the Great died.
According to my sources Caesarion lived from June 23, 47 BC until August, 30 BC. And further the Gosped explains how a Jewish woman of Judah tribe, Mary, and not an Egyptian queen, was pregnant and gave birth to the child later known as Jesus, and not to mention that his life after 30 is well documented and there is nothing that fits with Ptolomy, sorry.
Caesarion was proclaimed "King of Kings." Most threatening to Octavian (whose claim to power was based on his status as Julius Caesar's grand-nephew and adopted son), Antony declared Caesarion to be Caesar's true son and heir.
When Octavian invaded Egypt in 30 BC, Cleopatra VII sent Caesarion, then seventeen years old, to the Red Sea port of Berenice for safety, with possible plans of an escape to India.
Octavian had Caesarion executed there, with the words "Two Caesars is one too many". No events concerning his death have been documented, but due to his young age it is supposed he was executed by strangulation.
Octavian then assumed absolute control of Egypt. The year 30 BC was considered the first year of the new ruler's reign according to the traditional chronological system of Egypt. In lists of the time Octavian himself appears as a Pharaoh and the successor to Caesarion.
In response, a series of potential heirs seem to have been selected, among them Tiberius and his brother, Drusus. In 24 BC, at the age of seventeen, Tiberius entered politics under Augustus's direction, receiving the position of quaestor,[6] and was granted the right to stand for election as praetor and consul five years in advance of the age required by law.[7] Similar provisions were made for Drusus.[8]
[edit]Civil and military career
Shortly thereafter Tiberius began appearing in court as an advocate,[9] and it is presumably here that his interest in Greek rhetoric began. In 20 BC, Tiberius was sent East under Marcus Agrippa.[10] The Parthians had captured the standards of the legions under the command of Marcus Licinius Crassus (53 BC) (at the Battle of Carrhae), Decidius Saxa (40 BC), and Marc Antony (36 BC).[7] After several years of negotiation, Tiberius led a sizable force into Armenia, presumably with the goal of establishing it as a Roman client-state and as a threat on the Roman-Parthian border, and Augustus was able to reach a compromise whereby these standards were returned, and Armenia remained a neutral territory between the two powers.[7]
Bust of Vipsania Agrippina, Tiberius' first wife recovered from Leptis Magna
After returning from the East in 19 BC, Tiberius was married to Vipsania Agrippina, the daughter of Augustus’s close friend and greatest general, Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa,[11] appointed praetor, and sent with his legions to assist his brother Drusus in campaigns in the west. While Drusus focused his forces in Gallia Narbonensis and along the German frontier, Tiberius combated the tribes in the Alps and within Transalpine Gaul, conquering Raetia. In 15 BC he discovered the sources of the Danube, and soon afterwards the bend of the middle course.[12] Returning to Rome in 13 BC, Tiberius was appointed as consul, and around this same time his son, Drusus Julius Caesar, was born.
Heir to Augustus
With Tiberius's departure, succession rested solely on Augustus' two young grandsons, Lucius and Gaius Caesar. The situation became more precarious in AD 2 with the death of Lucius.
