Notes

Chapter 1
A MYSTERY of THREE THOUSAND YEARS

Is It Possible . . . ?

•
  Is it possible that there exists a three-thousand-year-old mystery that lies behind everything from the implosion of the New York Stock Exchange, the collapse of the American and world economy, the attack of 9/11, the rise of nations, the fall of nations, and events that have not yet happened but are yet to take place?

•
  Is it possible that the words of an ancient text are determining and controlling the future of the financial realm, the business realm, and the economic realm?

•
  Is it possible that an ordinance given to a relatively small and obscure Middle Eastern nation is now determining the future of every nation on earth?

•
  Is it possible that a spiritual principle given to a nation of shepherds and farmers lies behind the expansion and collapse of virtually every stock market in the world?

•
  Is it possible that a mystery begun over three thousand years ago on a desert mountain pinpoints the exact time, down to dates and hours, of some of the most critical events of modern times?

•
  And is it possible that this mystery is even now governing the future of everyone reading these words and the lives of most inhabitants of this planet?

It may sound like something one would expect to find in a Hollywood fantasy or science fiction—but it’s real—as real as any phenomenon could be.

Much that will be revealed in this book has never before been revealed in written form. Most people have never heard of the word
shemitah
, much less the mystery that surrounds it. Yet their lives have been critically impacted, altered, or determined by its manifestation.

It all begins on a desert mountaintop upon which a bearded time-worn man stands waiting for a revelation. The revelation will come. And after the old man descends the mountain, it will continue through a series of supernatural encounters in the desert wilderness. It is within this revelation that the mystery of the Shemitah will begin.

The revelation will continue to unfold as a weeping prophet walks the ground on which had once stood the holy city, the glory of his nation. Now it lies in ruins and rubble. The reason for its destruction, the timing of the calamity, and the nature of its judgment are all contained in the Shemitah and the mystery surrounding it.

The mystery will continue to unfold beyond ancient times, through centuries and ages, until reaching the modern world.

It will embrace America’s rise to world power, the collapse of Wall Street and stock markets around the world, the march of Allied soldiers across Europe and into Berlin, the postwar global order, the events of 9/11, the Great Recession, and much more.

The mystery will converge with a second dynamic, the mystery of the towers, a phenomenon that begins with the construction of Babel and extends to the ruins of Ground Zero.

The mystery of the Shemitah will not only operate on a massive and global stage but also on the smallest of scales, altering bank accounts, determining the financial well-being or the lack of it for those who have fathomed that such a phenomenon exists, changing the course of their lives.

In recent years economic and financial analysts have been at a loss for words as they watched the collapse of the world’s economic and financial realms. And yet we will find that the secret behind these phenomena lies not with the opinions of modern pundits but in words of ancient parchments.

The mystery was first revealed in
The Harbinger: The Ancient Mystery That Holds the Secret of America’s Future
. I take no credit for the book or the revelations therein. I wasn’t looking to write a book, nor was I seeking to come up with any message or revelation. It began without being sought after and then basically wrote itself.
The Harbinger
contains fourteen major revelations or mysteries. One of these revelations is that of the Shemitah.

From the moment the book was released, I’ve been deluged with questions concerning America’s future and that of the world. In particular,
The Harbinger
’s seventeenth chapter, which reveals the link between the ancient Shemitah and the events of modern times, has prompted a whirlwind of speculation. With the approach of the next Shemitah, the amount of speculation has increased exponentially. In view of this, FrontLine, publisher of
The Harbinger
, strongly felt that a book had to be written to open up the mystery of the Shemitah. They approached me with the idea.
