You put your common sense at work and look at what you get, that is exactly right and things make a lot more sense now. You are also right about Noah's flood, it originated in what is today the extreme west of China now but was not then. We know it as the Tamar Plateau, I would have to look up the other names of this plateau in some other old texts. When the foundations of the earth were broken up, the water emerged from below and rose to 33 feet and did not flood the entire world as many believe. The Bible tells us this precisely by using the word ERETZ which means THIS PLACE meaning a localized event. The ark ended up on mount MASIS which is in Armenia. Remember that there is NO such thing as the mountain of ARARAT, because the word Ararat literally means Armenia in the Chaldee text. It really says on a mountain which is in Armenia and that mountain is known today as MASIS. There is a lot more to this story and you won't find it on the internet. I always find it funny when people claim that they found the ARK way up in the mountains when in fact the Bible tells us that the waters were only 33 feet deep when you translate it from cubits. It was of course deep enough to drown all the wicked people in that region.
The Chinese recorded this flood and they never perished just like many other civilizations never perished. This was a localized event that destroyed many of the Nephilim but not all. There are many other Biblical stories that you have heard before that are also not accurate in the translations. This is why the seed of Cain survived and afflict us to this day through Esau/Edom. As such, we must study the ancient texts, like the Ethiopic, Syriac, Chaldee and of course the Greek texts to get a better understanding of things.
As for Christmas in December, you are correct on that too. It was in September and we can clearly document this in the Book of St. Luke, the key words are "The Course Of Abiah" which leads you right to late September. December 25 was decided by the Roman Church over a thousand years ago because it was close to the Winter Solstice celebrations etc. In the end, I don't see it as a blasphemy to celebrate our Lord's birthday in December. It is true that Yashua the Christ never told us to celebrate His birth. However, He did order us to do only one thing in His memory and you already know what that is. Happy researches.
Aah thank you to be confirmed for a brain-dead. Can I get you to tell me where I can find "The Course of Abiah?" please?
I did not figure September. I figured Springs, maybe March or April because the shepherds were out there with their sheep. You cannot graze in December.
The course of Abiah, see First Chronicles Chapter 24. It is all about the time when Moses setup the Priesthood line of Aaron to tend to the burnt offerings at the stone altar which was in the form of a large triangle. Afterwards when Solomon's temple was built to house the Ark of the Covenant, the priests continued their courses alotted and the traditions of the burnt sacrifices and ministered to the people. This continued on to the second temple that Zacharias attended in his time. Remember when they drew lots and the year was then divided into 24 courses? One course is 15 days. Luke 1:5. here we learn that Elizabeth is one of the daughters of Aaron which makes Mary a daughter or descendant of Aaron as well because the mothers of Elizabeth and Mary were sisters. Zacharias during his course of Abiah which was nearly done by our calendar is about June 20th when he left for his home which is away from Jerusalem. We surmise here that it may have taken one to three days to get home as we are not told where at the time Zacharias is living. Nonetheless, verse 24 is another key as we learn that after Zacharias' return, Elizabeth is then with child FIVE MONTHS which would be about November 24. Then we learn that an Angel appears to Mary in Narareth and at that time it is the SIXTH MONTH for Elizabeth which is about December 25th. There is a lot more to this story, but I think you can figure it out from here. I used to give lectures in advanced Biblical studies many years ago in seminaries and Colleges and this was one important subject for every Christian to know. Its great that you figured out that the shepherds did not tend their flocks in the fields in December, the grass is dead and its cold.

You really do know your Bible well. I can see this.
