Apollodorus’ Bibliotheca Book 3, Chapter 5, Section 5.
It describes the myth of Amphion and Zethus, the twin sons of Zeus and Antiope, who are credited with building the walls of Thebes.
It's about the divine inspiration and musical power of Amphion, whose lyre music was so enchanting that it made inanimate stones move themselves into place, helping build the walls of Thebes without manual labor
- Διὸς καὶ Ἀντιόπης — "of Zeus and Antiope"
- ἐτείχισαν τὰς Θήβας — "they built the walls of Thebes"
- Ἀμφίων λύραν — "Amphion [had] a lyre"
- παρὰ Μουσῶν — "from the Muses"
- δι’ ἧς κατέθελγε καὶ τοὺς λίθους — "by which he charmed even the stones"
- αὐτῷ δεδομένην — "given to him"
- ὥστε καὶ πρὸς τὴν τειχοδομίαν αὐτομάτους ἐπέρχεσθαι — "so that they [the stones] came of their own accord to the building of the wall"
Ἀμφίων - amphion - ancient rocker had a guitar given to him by the muses, through the means of this guitar he bamboozled stone. He caused the walled city to rise. A very famous guitar that brings to life the fortification and defense of the city.
"Rock" ancestry (haha)
Pherecydes in his 10th History
"Pherecydes, in the tenth book of his Histories (according to Phavorinus' Histories), says that the lyre was given to Amphion by the Muses."
- Φερεκύδης (Pherekydes) in his 10th (dekate) history (historia)
- Ἀμφίων (Amphion): A mythological figure, twin of Zethus, famous for building the walls of Thebes with his lyre-playing.
- δοθῆναι (dothēnai): δίδωμι = “to be given.”
- Λύρα (Lyra) - the lyre is the classical Greek stringed instrument often mythologically associated with the Muses and Apollo.
- φησί (phēsi): "he says"
- ὑπὸ Μουσῶν (hypo Mousōn): “by the Muses.”
He said this specific guitar was given to Amphion by the muses
Plato’s Phaedrus (Plato, Phaedrus 276e)
Plato’s Phaedrus around section 250d
Translation: Does it still seem to you that beauty by which all things are made cosmetic κοσμεῖται (they fit perfectly into the arrangement of the cosmos) and beautiful. When this beauty bestows itself on the individual, do you really think that results in the virgin, the horse, and the lyre?
Do you really think that divine beauty, that makes everything so wonderful and right, do you really think that is embodied / becomes / manifested as a virgin, a horse, or as a guitar?
Is that what's going on, The instrument as reflection of that virgin?
Remember: Where are we getting these lyre players, what is some of the singing, we've been looking at oracles, they're training the priestesses from ages of 0-10, 10-20 they're singing. And there has to be accompaniment (why? because they understand the magic works from the music, even more important than the drugs). If your audience is not drugged, you're not performing the mystery.
Important: After you drug your audience, you have to then program them with the music. (it used to be the evangelicals would protest the concerts, and you could see that front line right there).
The art of translating this, is having been saturated and recognizing links.
If you love to make associations, drill that in... while you translate.
LYCURGUS
Who are those people that prep those guitars? They call them the ones who manipulate or string the neura (νεῦρα) for the lyre. Look at how the greeks are looking at this, looking at the person as someone who has gone through the process, has the techne (skill) to string the instrument, there aren't any other instruments. Bells, horns, drums, have fun, but nature is based on the stringed instrument. Shamanic drummers are great. But the organization of the cosmos / universe based on the tension of the string, the bow, and the lyre.
...DICAEARCHUS divided things up. As the body is to the lyre, the soul is to harmony. The soul of your guitar is harmony. The great lyre player that saved the neura (νεῦρα) of god, this is the one who is married to harmonia. All in the line of bacchus. Because the union of this lyre player with harmony produces the virgin mother of bacchus.
That’s the Orphic mythos:
The idea: music gives birth to divinity.
- Orpheus is the lyre player.
- He charms the underworld and orders the cosmos with his music.
- His marriage to Harmonia (as concept and perhaps personified) is symbolic: music as divine union.
- The “virgin mother of Bacchus” is a deeply Dionysian mystery image — in some versions of the myth, Dionysus is born from a divine virgin or from the body of Semele (consumed by Zeus’ fire), reborn through music, ritual, or madness.
It's that seeded in the religion? In the cult? The music is that deep within the cult? Yes. What is it that Jesus is singing as he is going to the garden party with the boy? He's singing a hymn. Not the first hymn ever written... Jesus didn't compose it. Where did he get it? He wasn't the first Christ...
The body is to the guitar as the soul is to the harmony.
What's Ammon saying?
This metaphor was common in antiquity: the soul doesn’t just inhabit the body — it plays the body like a musician plays an instrument. If the body is out of tune, the soul cannot express itself clearly. This is why moderation, training, and ritual purification were so emphasized in ancient philosophy and mystery cult
- The body is like a lyre (λύρα), a physical instrument with strings (νεῦρα, nerves/sinews).
- The soul is like harmonia, the tuning, the resonance — invisible, but it gives meaning and beauty to the body.
“put your chicken down” because he's warning you that you're staring straight into the living interface between music, metaphysics, and religion.
It “blows your mind” because:
- Music is not metaphorical here — it is ontological.
- Harmony isn’t like the soul — it is the soul.
- The lyre isn’t just an instrument — it’s a body.
- When you sing with the lyre, you are enacting a cosmic truth: you are aligning soul and body
if you really see what Dicaearchus and the mysteries are saying, then:
- Every instrument is a body.
- Every song is a soul.
- Every ritual with lyre or voice is a reenactment of cosmic tuning.
- And when you sing, you’re not just making sound — you’re aligning with divine forces that shaped the universe.
That’s what the Eleusinian Mysteries, the Orphics, the Bacchic rites, and even the Gnostic Gospel traditions, understood: sound + form = transformation
Aristoxenus (Fragment 102)
κιθάρις καὶ κιθάρα διαφέρει, φησὶν Ἀριστόξενος ἐν τῷ περὶ ὀργάνω·
*“Kitharis and kithara differ,” says Aristoxenus in On Instruments;
κίθαρις γάρ ἐστιν ἡ λύρα,
“for the kitharis is the lyre,”
καὶ οἱ χρώμενοι αὐτῇ κιθαρισταί, οὓς ἡμεῖς λυρῳδοὺς φαμεν.
“and those who use it are kitharists, whom we call lyre-singers.”
κιθάρα δὲ ᾗ χρῆται ὁ κιθαρῳδός.
“the kithara is what the kitharode (kithara-singer) uses.”
Grammmarians figuring out the science of music with respect to the stringed instruments. Can you find any of these words in Hebrew, Oscan or Umbrian? No. Can you find any of these words in the language they're speaking in Asia Minor where paul is fighting with a group of Judeans. Judeans in Asia Minor!!!!!????? The words is a made up word that is introduced in Hellenistic Alexandria in order to create a past that doesn't exist before.
Verified with TLG. Which is useful also to help us uncover
a powerful hypothesis — that the entire mystery language around music, ritual, and divine communication through instruments is fundamentally Greek in origin. That these:
…have no pre-Hellenic or non-Greek semantic origins. This is a powerful statement, because it:
- Technical terms,
- Performer titles,
- Instrument types,
- and the cosmo-theological framework they’re embedded in…
- Challenges back-dating of religious concepts into Hebrew or other regional traditions.
- Suggests that the ritual technologies of lyre-magic, hymnody, initiation, and divine embodiment through music are products of Hellenistic invention, especially from Alexandrian synthesis.
And the further implication: if early Christian or mystery religion elements reuse these terms, they are drawing on Greek religious technology
Greek musical theory + sacred performance = the technology of divine embodiment.
And this technology was:
- Codified in Alexandria
- Used in mystery cults
- Transmitted into early Christian liturgy
Dioscoredes Says that the lyre was given to amphion by Apollo, not the muses. Why would that matter? Hes the musagetes. He's the leader of the muses. It matters a lot. Anthropologically what the hell is going on? Why are these people debating about which divinity gave that particular instrument (that they will follow through time) to that kytherist, singer, lyre playing civilization builder. There is a sprit of harmony. It's the gift.
Posidonius was smart, hard to keep up with
History here about the celts
He says they have makers of song, called bards
Who use instruments similar to our guitars
Both to sing hymns and to blaspheme (slander)
Any form of blaspheme coming out of our lyres (guitars) today?
Blasphemy as a genre...?
The last line
These people are philosophers and theologians
And they are highly honored
And they are called Druids
Who's preserving the knowledge in 200-100BCE, Alexandrians, the Celts! Druids.
These Scythians didn't just stop at the Black Sea, they moved west. That bow culture.
Educated in the Greek gymnasium, so He knows about things like the stringed instrument being the source of all that is physics. The 7stringed guitar, being the ariste (best). Due to its inharmonics. How much Hebrew is in this? Zero. You couldn't express this in ancient Hebrew.
The heptachord (7stringed lyre) is analogous to the choreia, the pathway (or chorus) of the wandering stars (planeton) and it completes this harmony. It brings it to perfection. That's what the heptachord does. Why would a 7string instrument bring that perfect harmony? Because it's an exact reflection of what you can look up at. This is nature. Paul's walking around saying "you're worshiping nature" (snarky voice).
If you thought religion was produced by drugged cave/shroom people, you're mistaken. The discovery of the music brings that power to the word. Kitheroads that build words. Where are the kitheroards that build words (worlds, or words??? Yes!!).
the secret of every lyre-bearing civilization.
That is what the Kitharodes do:
They sing the world into structure.
Do you understand why mothergreek did what she did with the music? Why this would come from nowhere else? It had to come from there the language that had that capacity, it was able to breach the invisible and the visible, to bring in those physics of the cosmos that ultimately produce the harmony. Hermes and Hecete, these people are nuts, these daimones ...
Hermes, Hecete, Isis. From one of the magical texts. Isis is she who ressurects. If you understand that, and also who mom and dad are, the music of translation making sweet love with the death and life giving blood of magic, produces she who is the savior. Virgin savior yes. Focus on the virgin. Why? Because someone put her up on the hill. Every day I look up there and remember she is the chief artist, when apollo strikes up the muses. It's the Virgin. Why is the Virgin so important?........
Let's bust some paradigms.
Who's that discoverer
It's Hermes
He's the one who gives those who are alive, and takes such joy...
What are the gifts this stringed instrument gives?
It gives them Symphonia and Homologia.
Blaspheme: the USA doesn't have these because you have to respect the virgin who says "your greed stains the soul with the stench of ruin", have you noticed that just came out? You can see peoples morals now, you can see where they lie. They lie in buying and selling. You know what you are? You are the makers of music that is corrupt, because if you had the music that was from the god you would purify yourself but instead your greed stains
-- isn't it gorgeous? Do you hear the slander? That wasn't hymning that was blaspheming. Do you see why blasphemy is so important? You're not going to get Bacchus with blasphemy. When the devil told him about the contract, he said "are you joking"? For the blasphemy alone it's worth it. He's not going to do it for any ideals, saving human souls, helping humanity, he's doing it for the slander because it's so painfully accurate. Have to appreciate the artistry of the archerists. (Notetaker: is he talking about the Bow hunters???)
Bible
Paul journeys around Asia Minor, ends up in tough places, he goes to pirateville, the people there recognize the cult, they call barnabus who is traveling with paul, Paul's traveling with pubescent boys, they pick him up where the pirates are, the traffickers , they pick him up, what cult sects are here? Judean cult sects. Cultists. Because they are following the layout on the map of the lestai, the traffickers in humanity. It says in the Septuagint that Abraham is a pirate.
They're calling paul Hermes because he is the one
Paul is acting as the hermetic translator.
For those of you who have read your Bible....
The Letter of Aristeas to Philocrates is a Hellenistic work of the 3rd or early 2nd century BC, considered by some Biblical scholars to be pseudepigraphical.%5B1%5D The letter is the earliest text to mention the Library of Alexandria.%5B2%5D
Beginning of the Letter of Aristeas to Philocrates. Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, 11th century.Josephus,%5B3%5D who paraphrases about two-fifths of the letter, ascribes it to Aristeas of Marmora and to have been written to a certain Philocrates. The letter describes the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bibleby seventy-two interpreters sent into Egypt from Jerusalem at the request of the librarian of Alexandria, resulting in the Septuagint translation.
Some scholars have since argued that it is fictitious.%5B4%5D
Wikipedia quote. The reason the way you think the way you do, and say things like "biblical history" or "Bible times", the reason you think that is because of this false letter. That they knew was false in antiquity, this is the letter that establishes the Septuagint is a translation. It was never questioned before. Someone came along in the 1st cent and created this letter to give it some substantiation to say this thing (Septuagint) is a translation of Hebrew.
You're going to see another language that paul encountered that they ran over in Asia Minor, it's a relative or Phrygian. The people speaking Greek squashed the people who don't. Making their language obsolete. As the language grows the education grows, and the building, the walls come up through the music. That famous guitar was said to be able to build a city. Specifically the walls the fortifications, defenses. That music is the defense. Do you understand why modern Monist hymns are the way they are? Singing is an extremely liberating process, if you don't want your people liberated you create a modern hymn... amazing this grace that pardoned a wretch like me, look at my wretched face". That's not a hymn. That's not a liberation, that is an enslavement. The hymning that takes place in churches is very much meant to reinforce the enslavement of the singers. They're not singing about reason much, are they? Why do Baptist church hymns never set you free? Why are they always shackling you? "How great though art to overcome the likes of me, the lord almighty?"
Letter of Aristeas
Describes a Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible
Imagine if someone writes an epic tome.
Then 200 years later, someone writes a letter that says this epic tome was a translation.
And everyone buys it!!!
That's because the predominant wave in the 1st, 2nd cent CE is towards this Christian acceptance.
Those Hebrew originals Which strangely don't exist.
This is why people were so excited to get the Dead Sea Scrolls. Because it had some Hebrew in it, it also had the Greek that they were trying to copy into Hebrew but didn't have enough words in the Hebrew to do successfully.
Ha!!! "Some scholars" not just modern scholars, they did the same thing in antiquity: they said "this thing is a lie" but remember it was the pagans that got silenced when the Christians found their "Orange Hitler" named Constantine. Are we just reliving? Yes. And you're doomed to. Because you don't study this stuff. Because if we had studied this stuff we wouldn't have let it lead up to this point. Now, we need to go deal with the office of White House propaganda. You thought Naziism was specific to only one time period? History repeats in cycles
What were those three ideal beauties?
And that's harmony.
(notetaker: Sounds like an Amazonian: horse, virgin, bow)
Is it really true that that ideal beauty is that harmonic reality that we're just a dim reflection of?
Most scholars who have analyzed the letter have concluded that the author cannot have been the man he represented himself to be but was a Jew who wrote a fictitious account in order to enhance the importance of the Hebrew Scriptures by suggesting that a pagan king had recognized their significance and therefore arranged for their translation into Greek.[17]
The story from the beginning was BS. Our timeline has accepted it as their reality because Christianity will fall. It's built upon it like a house of cards it'll come down. Those texts are not in Hebrew. They never were they never are they aren't now and they never will be. No matter how much you try to translate the Greek into any other language the problem is you're not dealing with something like English Italian or French. You're dealing with a language with 1.5M unique word forms. All the things you can do with just one verb, gymnastics. Metaphor, analogy, thesis, that's why all the words that we hold so important come from Greek. This is a technology for your brain.
Where were we? With the horse and the virgin... and now we're at acts 14 again. Something odd. Doesn't make any sense. Paul's going to the synagogues of the Judeans. How far back in Greek does the word Udios go? People will say they're in the fragments that go back to the 6th BC (nope!) those fragments are later creations, quotations, far after the 6th. The oldest genuine recording of it, you won't find prehellenistic. This is a Hellenistic creation, as an ethnic group. what you have in Asia Minor are people practicing the ways of Abraham the pirate. That is the religion. The guarantee. The land grant.
So Paul is up there
Before he picks up the kid
Philemon was another too
He comes to the synagogue of the Judeans. That's not a geographical reference to the land of the Judeans. So that many of the Judeans and the Greaks,
Those who speak Greek and those who are Udioi.
Zeroing in on it
They have their gatherings their synagogues, which is a Greek term, the Judeans got worked up and it's coming to a loggerheads, their practices are not able to mesh.
Whats happening???
Polytheist society is really old. Predate anything monotheistic always. So they are absorbing.
Out here in the land of the pirates, it's a different story. They are having arguments that are causing them to come to conflict with each other and paul gets in the middle of it. That is the background for people stepping forward and saying one of you is Zeus and one of you is Hermes. Do you see after all of that it comes down to people being able to associate the activities within the mystery. This is not anything strange. The Septuagint is built upon this model of Zeus and Hermes as the conveyors of that self knowledge. What do they do? They enter a place like sodom and Gomorrah in order to test it , to try it, the word peirates for pirate is the word for the testing. Hesychius shows us that.
Do you see how you've been following a fairy tale? Your understanding of history has been a fairy tale understanding.
Paul's navigating through nations of soul traders.
Paul is wrapped up in this battle for cult predominance in a region that is being flooded by this salicion from the south, piracy influences, black market in human souls. There's a dude who can't use his feet fever since he came from his mother, And he never walked around. This guy heard paul talking, and paul seeing him, his faith, this is the faith that leads to salvation and paul says in a great voice, anastethe, stand upright on those feet. Orthos. In a straight way. He stands up and walks off. The crowd starts to speak. What are they speaking? Lucahonesty. Lucaonian. When we say Hebrew was a language that got eaten by Greek, this is an example, a recorded example of another language (besides Hebrew) that got crushed by mother Greek. And these people have synagogues, and we call them Judeans.
Heyschius
*<Ιουβάλ>
κύριον ὄνομα τοῦ καταδείξαντος κιθάραν (Gen. 4,21) r. AS
Word play. Notice the 2nd word is in genesis.
The one who learns teaches and masters the kythera, guitara.... who did the writers of the Septuagint model their genealogy on? They modeled it on the lyric poets of Greece. The Bible that people read about modes and Abraham was modeled on Greek thought. Its language is fundamentally Greek and not Hebrew.
Reference from Genesis
the one who teaches those instruments to the people.
Judas? Judah... where's that road coming from? It's the ἐξομολόγησις θεοῦ. Of the divinity. It's the thing coming out that makes your reason one. The emanation that is divine that makes you homologous.
People will say this is a word from Hebrew, because some fool falsified a document in antiquity, and started a lie that was perpetuated by fellow monists who wore different uniforms and did different things but they were still monists. So they perpetuated this lie to establish their own legitimacy. Everything some people hold sacred is a lie.
LSJ:
Heyschius
What is the porthmeus? The undertaking that is the testing of your life is done by the porthmeus. That is the trafficker in human souls. What does this say? Heber, hebraios. Perates - wanderers who Test limits of boundaries. Perates == peirates == Pirates. It's why Abraham is called a perate in the Bible, because he is a trader in human souls. Reality.
When you understand the Hebrew of the Bible is a forgery and the original is this wonderfully rich Greek text. All history is off.
What is that porthmeus?

Metaphor for a raptw. What does the person do who sets up the strings on the guitar. They are the contrivers. They're the ones who link together. Like the inventor of the guitar. That act of creating the string is the act of the creator. This music that we have with our instruments mimics a reality that is gorgeous.

What were those druids? The Celtics priests.
They were theologians.
What are theologians? One who discourses of the gods.
What are paul and barnabus doing that gets them painted as Zeus and Hermes. They're creating discourses of the gods. This is something that poets like Hesiod have been doing forever. Particularly when it comes to the Orphic cosmologies. This is the model for what people are thinking when they walk around and do what they're doing.
These Druids. Diviners and prophets. 5th line down diviners and prophets. What are those theologians? Mantic prophets. Kai manties.
The mantic prophet is the Druid is the theologian is Moses
This will block and destroy that timeline, this information has the capacity to block the false timeline started by aresteus, whoever started that. Has the potential to cure and reset the system, imagine a world where you can explain to Christian's the reality that is the fallacy that they believe. Their reason although suppressed is still their greatest strength. And all we have to do is ressurect her.

The only way to rescue them is to blaspheme. Your sisters and brothers blinded by the faith. The only way to rescue your neighbors and your coworkers. Is to blaspheme.
