followers of Finn and Fianna in 'Celtic Magic' which ties 'F' and 'Ph' of Phoenicians to Keltic king Finn. The 'Red-heads' are many places including Tarim near the' present Great Wall of China. In a recent National Geographic you can see their mummified remains and red hair. They were in Genghis Khan's Altaic region in 3,000 BC according to archaeology which likes to call them 'proto-Celts'. Genetic tracking tells us that one third of Cohens are related to Levite priests of ancient Judaea yet they were wiped out before Maccabeans took Temple before Herod dealt with them. The celebration of Chanukah (Hanukah) relates to take over of Judas Maccabee in 5th Century BC. The current worship of Tikkun energy by likes of Rabbi Michael Lerner is an area I am researching or keeping my eyes open towards. Perhaps this is explainable by women carrying blood after men were killed but it was Maccabean princess that Herod married, day before he had her and her brother killed. Personally I'd like it if everyone admitted we all are Earthians and dropped all this race and ethnic origin stuff. The noble lineage that passed throw blood of women has made women of Dragon blood a political chattel of worst sort. But because history is a power game and propaganda has to be pierced we are forced into these circuitous battles over who thought who was best and/or 'chosen ones' versus 'devoted ones'. That phrase is truly amazing. Devoted ones (according to Cahill in 'Gifts of Jews') means those to be sacrificed in Temple; I had suffered under illusion it meant those who had shown great reverence for great god Jehovah. Linguistics also shows how 'Aryan' is derived from 'Eire-yann' or people of Eire and Ireland. Thus Hitler would be killing his 'high Aryan priesthood' unless he freed Benjaminites and 'arch-tectons' of House of Judah or Merovingian family of Jesus. It is a grotesque irony to be certain! Yes, politics in Bible is well evidenced; and dogma is inspired by some very bad people NOT by God; or even by someone as good as heretical Cathars and Gnostics who actually lived according to what they said they believed.
"If Joseph of Arimathaea arrived in Glastonbury with Mary Magdalene/Bethany and was her companion and guardian, then he would be a guardian of Holy Grail. The Grail Romances of troubadors mysteriously connect Joseph of Arimathaea with Grail lineage...
Medieval tradition portrays Joseph of Arimathaea as a custodian of Holy Grail; and Perceval is said to be one of his lineage. According to other later traditions, he is in some way related by blood to Jesus and Jesus's family. (8)
Who was Joseph of Arimathaea?
Do we not, now, have enough information to make a plausible guess? In Gospels he is described as a rich man who was a secret disciple of Jesus. He supplied shroud in which body of Jesus was wrapped. 'It was Joseph of Arimathaea who obtained body of Jesus from Pontius Pilate. And he owned land with tomb in which Jesus was buried.'
The ownership of a private tomb indicates great wealth, fact that he could obtain body of Jesus from Pilate indicates not only great influence, but something else. Joseph of Arimathaea must have been a relative of Jesus in order to have claimed body from Roman authorities.
Then, there is matter of tomb. Was Jesus put into same tomb, and resurrected from same tomb, as one in which Lazarus was buried and raised? It 'seems' so from Gospels because this is only tomb mentioned during final days before Crucifixion and after it. This tomb was a cave whose entrance could be closed by a stone rolled in front of it. Lazarus was laid in it (John 11:38). Jesus was laid in it. At least, description of this cave-tomb are same for both Jesus and Lazarus.
If this deduction is correct, then cave-tomb was property of Joseph of Arimathaea, and this cave-tomb was on property at Bethany, at house of Martha, Lazarus and Mary. The same house where Jesus and his entourage had been offered extended hospitality. Joseph of Arimathaea must have been owner of this house in Bethany with its cave-tomb. He must have been father of Martha, Lazarus and Mary. He must also have been father-in-law of Jesus. Historical records tell us he became Roman Empire's Minister of Mines.
{The marriage at his house in Cana when water is turned to wine has no mention of name of groom but it does have a conversation with Jesus and Joseph of Arimathaea. We haven't included all of his reasoning and others who make same point because it makes sense and needs little more corroboration. This is why there is no hubbub about Mary traveling with Jesus. He followed code of his faith as a rabbi [teacher] and was therefore married as Mishnah calls for; there is a lot to prove Jesus was a devout man.}
