You got a range of plus or minus, you know, 50 years, depending on, you know, where it's at. But this particular one was, it was, it was sent by the, by basically an army guy named Hori. And so he's, he's reprimanding this another kind of scribe or, you know, or a correspondent for, for his lack of battlefield presence. And so. But what he does though is he mentions this, this group which, which is well known in Egyptian, called the Shosu. And these are typically Canaanites. Now. So you got to think in terms of when, when God told Abraham basically in Genesis 15 and 17, hey, I'm going to give you this land, but I'm going to. Or going back to Genesis 12 even, I'm going to give you this land. But your people are going to go into Egypt for 400 years, right? So what you see happen is it's, it's like that was the, that was the, the turning point for, for Satan to refill the land with Raphael. Because the word Rafaim, we see. And we see nephilim in Genesis 6. Then you're like, well, where'd they all go? Well, Raphael, the word Raphaim appears in Genesis 14 as being over in the land. So while they were gone down in Egypt, Satan fills the land with all of these tribes. You can read about the whole area, actually, not just Canaan, but down into Moab, into Edom. Just read Deuteronomy 2 and 3. So all those places are really close to Egypt. So Egypt is interacting with these giant tribes. And these are tall tribes. Again, According to Deuteronomy 2 and 3, Moses is recounting that they're great and as tall as the Anakim, and they're connected with the Nephilim. And then King Og was the last of the Raphaim. So you have all of these. Well, these, these, all these tribes were called the Shosu, which is what this particular scroll was describing in relation to Egypt, that they were tall. And so you see some of this when you go down to like, Luxor and Karnak, all those areas, and you go to all the major temples. I've been there many times, and it's pretty cool to see this stuff. And so one of the interesting things about it, I'll just give this last thing, is that normally if you're the pharaoh and you're getting your inscription on the wall, you're like this big, tall guy and everybody else is a bunch of schmucks and you're there beating on them. Well, in this case they actually show the enemy, the shoshu here, as being really, really big. That's, that's interesting because that's contrary to the typical propaganda of Egyptian, you know, basically hieroglyphs and stuff.

Do you think that we're going to see the veil thinning between now and whenever the Lord returns? Do you see that becoming more and more the norm where the supernatural is going to become more and more obvious,

if I can put it that way, 100%. Because I think that again, we know that all, all, all gloves are off once, you know, the Rapture happens and the tribulation begins. But there's no doubt, I think that already there is. If in, in looking around at our culture, you think about whether it's the New age abductions, I will say this, that America is, is relatively, relatively speaking isolated or separated. And, and all you have to do is ask any missionary you go to the three third world countries, like spiritism is everywhere. The veil is already removed there. So. But in the west, you know, the, the, the erudite, sophisticated, technologically savvy, materialist, naturalist west, well, we don't believe in spiritism. We don't believe in the soul. So I think Satan has his reasons for keeping us in this view. But it goes back to like the Screwtapes letters where in some cultures they, they, instead of them denying that they're spirits, they just get them to worship the ones that they want. The devils get them, the demons get them to worship there. But over here in this sophisticated scientific west, you keep them thinking that Satan doesn't exist. And so in that sense, I think that is going to probably, certainly, I think it'll be lessons between now and the start of the tribulation.
