Fifty is not a round number chosen for the sound of it.
speaker_0NARRATOR
71:20
Fifty was already somebody's number.
speaker_0NARRATOR
71:23
In that world, every great god had a numeral, the way a person has a rank, and fifty belonged to Enlil, who had been the lord of the gods, the one at the top, for as long as anybody had been writing anything down at all.
speaker_0NARRATOR
71:39
So when the assembly sits at that table and says fifty names over a young god from a city that was nothing much a few centuries earlier, they are not paying him a compliment.
Jordan CrowderGUEST
54:53
But does everybody want to know the truth? That'd be a little presumptuous to just say, let's tell everyone the truth.
Jordan CrowderGUEST
54:58
So these beings could just be in that kind of a situation where they're like, we're helping in ways, like behind the scenes and this kind of stuff, but we don't really, you know, and then there's also probably factions of them where there's like ones that are like, well, we probably do want to help them and just tell them, you know, like the whole Prometheus and Zeus thing, or Enlil and Enki, it's that story, or even like freaking, you know, Lucifer and Yahweh and stuff.
Jordan CrowderGUEST
55:24
You know, it's always a story of like, one wants to tell them the truth and one says no.
Jordan CrowderGUEST
55:29
And it just seems like that's a logical scenario, right? That we were, you know, genetically engineered.
Ralph Anthony CastaldoGUEST
46:35
The celestial waters.
Ralph Anthony CastaldoGUEST
46:37
And who was Enlil? His brother.
Ralph Anthony CastaldoGUEST
46:38
He was the celestial winds.
Ralph Anthony CastaldoGUEST
46:40
Just like in Egypt they have Shu and Tefnut.

9:59
Now, back to Shurapak, and back to that boundary line the King List draws so deliberately.
speaker_5NARRATOR
10:06
Because it's worth asking, why this city? Why does the list single out Shurapak as the last stronghold before the deluge, rather than, say, Nippur, which the Sumerians considered the spiritual heart of their entire civilization, home to the god Enlil himself? Why does the story funnel everything? All that antediluvian weight, all those impossibly long reigns, down to this one city on the banks of the Euphrates.
speaker_5NARRATOR
10:36
Some later texts give us a clue, and it's a strange one.
speaker_5NARRATOR
10:41
Shurapak isn't just remembered as a city that fell.

153:08
But Nippur remained the place where rulers wanted to be recognised by something greater than force.
speaker_5NARRATOR
153:14
Because conquering a city is one thing, being accepted by the gods is another.
speaker_5NARRATOR
153:20
At the centre of Nippur stood the Ika, Enlil's great temple complex.
speaker_5NARRATOR
153:26
The name is often translated as Mountain House, and that matters because southern Mesopotamia is almost completely flat.
Mark GagnonHOST
18:55
That is the exact same number that later becomes the supposed length of Nibiru's orbit in Sitchin's theory.
Mark GagnonHOST
19:01
But after 3,600 years, the Igigi are done, and they set fire to their tools, and they march to the home of Enlil in the middle of the night, they surround it, and they basically go on strike.
Mark GagnonHOST
19:13
So again, in the versions that we can actually recover from the old Babylonian sort of texts, the higher gods call a meeting, and Enki proposes a solution, and that solution is basically what we said, to create a new creature to carry the workload instead, and these creatures become known as humans.
Mark GagnonHOST
19:31
So it's basically the same, except this story actually is darker.
Jordan CrowtherGUEST
57:20
And then there's also probably factions of them where there's like ones that are like, well, we probably do want to help them and just tell them, you know, like the whole Prometheus and Zeus thing.
Jordan CrowtherGUEST
57:28
Or Enlil and Enki, it's that story.
Jordan CrowtherGUEST
57:30
Or even like freaking, you know, Lucifer and...
Jordan CrowtherGUEST
57:34
Yahweh and stuff, you know, it's always a story of like one wants to tell the truth and one says no.
Jordan CrowderGUEST
58:28
So these beings could just be in that kind of a situation where they're like, we're helping in ways, like behind the scenes and this kind of stuff, but we don't really, you know.
Jordan CrowderGUEST
58:39
And then there's also probably factions of them where there's like ones that are like, well, we probably do want to help them and just tell them, you know, like the whole Prometheus and Zeus thing or Enlil and Enki.
Jordan CrowderGUEST
58:48
It's that story or even like freaking, you know.
Jordan CrowderGUEST
58:52
Lucifer and Yahweh and stuff.
Arcturus RaGUEST
54:44
And they did it since Babel, the Tower of Babel, Babel, r- cosmic reset, language confusion.
Arcturus RaGUEST
54:50
The spaceport of the Tower of Babel was bombarded from the sky, not by God, by Enlil.
Arcturus RaGUEST
54:55
Read the tablets and c- do the comparative data with the ap- ap- apocryphal texts that you find in the Bible and Sumerian texts and see what ...
Arcturus RaGUEST
55:02
Well, Moses wasn't talking to God on Mount Sinai.
Gregory Lessing GarrettGUEST

Gregory Lessing GarrettGUEST

This, Anunnaki, Ancient Alien, Nibiru, all the names that we're hearing, you know, Enki, Enlil, Ninki, Marduk, you know, the reptilian alien visitors, the Anunnaki.
Gregory Lessing GarrettGUEST

Gregory Lessing GarrettGUEST

He fully masters ecstasy and is an expert in Enlil, ancient and Sumerian hermeneutics, and the secrets of heaven and earth.
