Chapter 5
Max’s mind was fully focused. He was only slightly aware that he was standing on the stage. His mind was focused on those souls seated in the theater. Their intense gaze told him that they were following every fact being presented. And Max knew these were the first two dozen to see and understand the Earthstar Prophecy. A fleeting thought passed through his mind. Twenty four elders were described by John in the Revelation vision. Those two dozen knew and understood as well. Max’s mind was relentlessly perceiving patterns and parallels. Max continued:
Returning to Genesis chapter 37 where we find the account of Joseph’s prophetic dream of the eleven stars, we again note that by extension of the symbolism in his dream, Joseph is represented by the unseen twelfth star… planet Earth. In his dream Joseph is standing on the Earth looking into the heavens. But Joseph only sees eleven stars in his dream even though there are twelve sons of Jacob. The only “star” that Joseph would not see is the star he is standing on– the “moving star” called planet Earth. The Earthstar.
Max pressed the remote and advanced the screen overhead to the next image displaying planet Earth.
Earth and all of the other planets of our solar system, including the dwarf planets, can be regarded as “moving” stars. Because the only lights in the evening sky that truly move through the heavens are the stars we know to be planets of our solar system. All of the other myriad of stars are so distant from planet Earth they do not appear to move. They are fixed in their positions, one star relative to another, just as the markings of wall paper in a room are fixed to the wall and do not move.
One can stand in a room and turn round about to create the illusion that the markings on the wall are moving, but in reality the wall paper is fixed. The wall paper is simply a non-moving background to all of the other objects in the room. In like fashion all of the stars of the evening sky are fixed as a background. Only the 12 planets of our solar system that exist in close proximity to planet Earth can be seen over days and weeks and months to move across the evening sky. These are the “moving” stars. These are the eleven stars depicted in Joseph’s dream. Earth, one of the thirteen moving stars in our solar system, is the unseen star in Joseph’s dream– the star upon which Joseph was standing as he gazed into the heavens. Planet Earth symbolizes Joseph. And Joseph’s eleven brothers are symbolized by the eleven stars Joseph saw in his dream which correspond to eleven planets in or solar system that are visible in the evening sky. Six only visible by telescope. Joseph’s sister Dinah, as a female, was not depicted in his dream; the dream only included eleven stars that would represent Joseph’s male siblings, his brothers. But God did indeed create the dwarf planet Ceres and position it perfectly in our solar system as a dwarf planet to symbolize Joseph’s sister Dinah, the only female child of Jacob.
It is obvious from reading the verses of Genesis 37 that Jacob, Joseph’s father, interpreted the sun and moon in Joseph’s dream to represent himself and his wife Rachel. We see this in verse 10. The sun symbolizes Jacob, Joseph’s father. The moon symbolizes Rachel, Joseph’s mother. Thus, as we see all of the 13 planets, including Earth, circling the sun, it is obvious that the symbolism in Joseph’s dream is intended to demonstrate that the patriarch Jacob, symbolized by the sun, is the central focus of all of his children who are symbolized by the 13 planets that circle the sun. All thirteen of Jacob’s children center their lives around him just as all thirteen of our planets are centered in their orbits around the sun.
In like parallel, as Joseph is a prophetic fore-type of Jesus Christ, it follows that planet Earth by extension not only symbolizes Joseph, it symbolizes Jesus Christ as well. And whereas the sun in Joseph’s dream symbolizes his father, Jacob, the sun by extension also symbolizes Jesus’ Father in heaven. As Earth and the other planets center their orbits around the sun, so likewise Jesus the Firstborn and His apostolic brothers centered their lives around their Heavenly Father. And all other spiritual brothers and sisters of Christ are to follow this same pattern. We see this fact evident in the model prayer where Jesus instructed His disciples to pray after this fashion– “Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done…” Jesus instructed all of His spiritual brothers and sisters to focus their attention on the Heavenly Father. To center their lives around Him.
Max proceeded from the sun straight to the moon.
As Jacob is symbolized by the sun in Joseph’s dream, Rachel is symbolized by the moon. Now notice that the moon orbits planet Earth. The moon has no like association with any of the other planets. And we have already established that the Earth symbolizes Joseph. The gravitational relationship between planet Earth and the moon symbolizes the exclusive relationship between Joseph and his mother, Rachel.
All thirteen of the planets in our solar system have a gravitational bond with the sun. They orbit the sun. But only planet Earth has a gravitational bond with the moon. In parallel, all thirteen of Jacob’s children have relationships that are centered around Jacob. But only Joseph has a maternal bond with Rachel. Rachel’s relationship with Joseph is exclusive. It is true that Rachel bore a second son, Benjamin. But Rachel never developed a relationship with him. Because Rachel died giving birth to Benjamin (Genesis 35:18). So the orbital relationship between the Earth and the moon exactly parallels the exclusive relationship between Joseph and his mother Rachel. As well, this exclusive bond between the Earth and the moon would also symbolize the relationship between Jesus Christ and the Old Testament Church in the Wilderness which gave birth to Him. (Revelation 12:4, 12:13).
Max displayed his final image. The moon hovering over the Earth.
Now notice this one aspect of the Earth-moon relationship. The moon completes one rotation on its axis in the exact same time that it completes one revolution around the Earth. That’s called synchronous rotation. Thusly, the same side of the moon always faces the Earth. The back side of the moon never turns to face the Earth and therefore is never seen by humans on Earth. As the moon circles the Earth she constantly turns her face toward the Earth and never looks away. She circles and watches the Earth from every side. In parallel, there is no doubt that Rachel, having been barren for so many years, greatly adored her firstborn son, Joseph. There is no question that he became the focus of her life. She surely never turned her gaze away from him. And in parallel, the church in the wilderness that gave birth to Jesus Christ was always looking for the Messiah, never turning away from looking for the prophesied Firstborn Son of God; just as Rachel never gave up her hope of bearing a son.
Joseph’s dream of the sun, moon, and eleven stars was given to him to foretell that he would become ruler of all Egypt under Pharaoh, and some 22 years into the future all of Joseph’s family would migrate to Egypt and come under his rule. But at the same time Joseph, who became the savior who saved Egypt from the great famine, was a prophetic fore figure of our Savior Jesus Christ, the promised Messiah who would save all humanity. And correspondingly Joseph’s prophetic dream was given to foretell the coming of this Savior, Jesus, who will in time become ruler over all God’s Kingdom on Earth, just as Joseph became ruler over all Egypt. And Jesus, with His resurrected apostles, will eventually lead all of the resurrected saints to reign over the Heavenly Father’s Kingdom for a thousand years; just as Joseph shared his rulership in Egypt with his brothers who came and worked for Pharaoh. We see this recorded in Revelation chapter 20.
Max then began asking a series of questions.
Is it just coincidence that the design of our solar system with thirteen planets orbiting our sun and a single moon orbiting this Earth, for perhaps millions of years, is a perfect parallel to the thirteen children and two parents who would eventually become the center of God’s focus during the reign of Pharaohs?
And is it just chance that this pattern seen in Joseph’s celestial dream would perfectly parallel that of a future Messiah who would appear two thousand years into the future to live a life of persecution as did Joseph, qualifying to rule a future kingdom and becoming the savior of that kingdom?
Is it just chance that that Messiah would invite eleven young men to serve Him in ruling over His Father’s kingdom just as Joseph invited his eleven brothers to serve him in ruling over Pharaoh’s kingdom?
And is it just chance that this pattern of 11 + 1 is the exact pattern that was left behind when that Messiah ascended to be with His Father, leaving Peter, the petros, to lead the other eleven apostles in establishing the Church on earth until that Messiah should return some two thousand years later to rule with them over His Father’s Kingdom?
Is it? Just chance?
Before the first line of scripture was recorded by Moses, and even before the first man Adam was fashioned from the dust of the Earth, was man’s future and God’s great master plan already foretold, being written in the stars?
Did God lay out the stars to declare the end from the beginning?
Isaac Newton was looking for a key that would unlock the meaning of Bible prophecies. In the year 2006 the understanding of that key became available to humans for the first time. That numeric key is 4144, the pattern of 13 planetary orbits in our solar system and the corresponding grouping of Jacob’s 13 children as recorded in Genesis.
Four. One. Four. Four.
Max knew the 4144 key unlocked the door to understanding a never before seen Bible truth. A hidden prophecy. That planet Earth has an amazing future. That planet Earth is the Earthstar.
Ka check. Watcher had been standing by waiting for Tape 2 to end. He had set the display board to Automatic Ejection at end of play. Once again Max froze. The unseen who stood watching Max on the 3D display silently blinked and refocused on Watcher as time stood still.
While dusting the crumbs from his curvature, Watcher dismissed the unseen for the day and promised to resume first thing in the morning. (Presumably absent any sling demonstration.) He also gave them a foretaste of the morrow’s bakeries.
So now you know the true meaning of Joseph’s special dream of the sun, moon, and 11 stars. A dream revealing that God’s master plan for saving mankind was written in the stars before the first human was even created. A dream that reveals God chose this one special family to become the center for His plan of salvation for all men. A plan in which this special family would become the family tree into which all men will be grafted. The family of God.
All of this meaning was rolled up by YHWH and hidden within one scripture describing the sun, the moon, and eleven stars. Genesis 37:9. But there is another. A twin. An additional scripture which reveals even more of the amazing future for planet Earth. And this scripture also comes from the story of Joseph. Do you know which one?
Watcher paused. And waited. But all was golden. Silence. Just then another crumb dropped from his thoughts and rolled off his lower lip. It was not a Hollywood film, but a Broadway play. This crumb would be his clue to the unseen. They waited with bated breath for the crumb that would reveal a second mystery heretofore unseen. All of the unseen had seen the play. But none knew its hidden mystery. Watcher’s crumb was a clue of six words.
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
Do you know the scripture that’s wrapped in a riddle, and reveals the marvelous future of planet Earth?
