Show i kf JHEL t A 10 PYRAMID part II 11 af this great monument erected as is a guide aguede to man and a proof of divine wisdom and control ot of human life and mundane eve events nt s rises 4 8 6 f feet et above its square base which covers 13 acres it is is built of courses of solid masonry varying from 20 inches to 79 inches in height the individual blocks weighing irom from 10 to 60 tons each were transported some gome miles from quarries beyond the nile their faces were perfectly squared and hand surfaced with such precision that desi despite pite their bulk and weight when set in position they were seila separated rated by less than one hundredth of an inch or br time resisting cement a feat consid ered cred impossible by modern engineering and skill the whole monument was cisek on the outside by white waite limestone blocks beveled at an jangle of 51 degrees and 51 minutes and polished with the accuracy of an opticians level most of these casing blocks see rev 74 have been carried away for building purposes in nearby near by cairo the estimated weight of the whole structure is near nearly y tons and it contains enough benough blocks to build i a city of people this remarkable creation was situated exactly on the crossing a or the parallel of N latitude and the meridian meri dinn of east longitude which is the exact center ot of the jailor mass of the earth and was oriented I 1 as exactly to the compass points as adv surveyor could determine today the base is about feet square or CUBITS on each side while the total distance around the i base is expressed in INCH I 1 ES please note here that this figure represents the exact number bumbey of flays days in solar year I 1 now if we measure the diagonal of the base and add the two to together zether we find that the sum is inches which is the exact number of years year in that great astronomical cycle known ol 01 as the precession ot of aquin axes luring during which the polar axis ais of the earth slowly swings backward I 1 thru a complete circle I 1 the perimeter of the fiftieth course of masonry on aich Is located the kings chamber which we shall mention later also equals inches As interesting as are these apparent coincidences we are coming to one even more startling the diameter of any circle always bears the same relation to its ernee ernce a number designated in math by bv the greek letter pi equal to and this factor occurs many times in the various measurements of the pyramid if we use the height of the pyramid inches as the radius hlf half diameter of a circle circie we find its circumference equals inches the length or of the perimeter of the base in other words twice the height multiplied t pi equals the perimeter of base please note the constant repetition of these figures representing tide tic solar iolar year the ancient egyptians used a rectangular unit of land measure known as the aroura which measured inches by inches which is just twice the tha hecht of the pyramid and the vo oare oj jr re e of masonry on which is found the queen s chamber is 50 inches high just inches above th b base a e and wice ace 36 at inches on en 0 side another int inep c crin ing number fi sien ian repeated is the number nu at 0 mentioned in john 2111 the got course of masonry is 1700 inches 17 x above the base and there are courses above it il the sum ot all the numbers from 1 to IT equals our lord s ministry covered days x 6 the ceiling ill of one of the inner passages passage inea measures stires 1836 inches x 12 the area of tile the base exactly equals the area of the vert icle section multiplied by pi the height of the vol mid is just one ten billionth of the he distance to the sun and the weight ot of the pyramid is is just one billionth of the weight of the earth other measurements indicate the diameter ameter of the sun the distance to he moon aloon and its diameter the length ot of both tile the polar ind equated equa td rial diameter of tile the earth and ardathe an dathe eccentricity of the earth s orbit these are only a few of over 1000 remarkable facts which Indi indicate catt a purposeful design tar far from the realm of just coincidence ne next X t week we will tell you some f thing about the interior of the pyramid rf |
