From Episode 8 (listen here) : Nebuchadnezzar's Ishtar Gate at Babylon announcing the animals in the city zoo. Nebuchadnezzar's city of Babylon was a wonder even in antiquity. Here are some pictures of the great Ishtar Gate that welcomed visitors to the capital city while also advertising attractions in the city zoo. Here is a lion. You will remember that the Bible says that Daniel was fed to the city lions (twice):

Below: Here is an extinct aurochs (au-ox), a huge bull that was undomesticable by man and ferocious. Killing one was considered a very manly feat. Having captured one alive and put into one's zoo, even more so. Slaying one was on Julius Caesar's "bucket list" just to give you an idea. We know this creature lived with man because we have both its bones and eyewitness accounts from antiquity. The species survived in Europe until 1627 AD, when the last recorded aurochs died in the Jaktorów Forest, Poland. Its bones are on display just like we display Dino-dragon bones.

Below is a hunter's horn made from the last aurochs bull on earth. It belonged to King Sigismund III of Poland.

Below is one of the famous cave paintings from France. These are aurochs. Even then, men liked steak with their eggs! From Lascaux, France.

We also have images of men hunting, and being killed by aurochs-es. They were not domesticateable and very fierce. We know that the Greeks fought them and one wonders if one kept in a maze in Crete was not the impetus for the stories of the Minotaur of King Minos. Below is an ancient wall painting of men attacking the now extinct aurochs.

Also on the gate was Nebuchadnezzar's captured pet dragon. Today we are told that it is the only "mythical" beast on the gate. Does that make any sense? Why fill your gate with images of real animals, captured for your real city zoo, and include one "mythical" one? People coming to the zoo expected to see the creatures, and the eyewitnesses say they did. A dragon was merely a "terrible lizard" and today we have found their bones too. We call them dinosaurs now. A dinosaur is just a dead dragon. John the Revelator saw one that had "an arrogant horn" on the top of its head. Below is a picture of Nebuchadnezzar Ishtar Gate:

Here's a close up from another image on the other side with a better preserved horn. (With eyes to see, you start to see that it is all connected.) Daniel killed it under a challenge from the Persian Emperor who thought it was a god. (Who keeps a "god" in their zoo?). If only we had pictures like the above hunting of an aurochs of our ancestors drawing dino-dragons, or of men interacting with them. Hmmm....

Below a cave painting of a man and a dinosaur together.

From Episode 10 (listen here): Julius Caesar's actual face. Many people wonder how it is that we know what some historical figures looked like. Our ancestors were not as dumb as we suppose. They would take plaster or clay and make an impression of a person and then, after it had dried, they had a mold. By pouring more wet plaster into this mold they could make an exact 3D representation of the person. If the person were still living they would call it a "life mask." If they were dead, a "death mask." Below is Julius Caesar's actual death mask. He looks a little off, because he had been stabbed to death repeatedly. You can see that look on his face. Incidentally, Julius Caesar wrote about his killing an aurochs in Europe. It was something he always wanted to do. It was on his "bucket list."

From Episode 12 (listen here): Below is a sketch of Napoleon crowning himself while the Pope keeps his hands in his lap so as to refuse a blessing on him.

From Episode 14: QnA #2 (listen here):

We see the current coastlines of the world and believe that these were always the coastlines, but the fact is that before the days of Peleg the coastline actually ended at the continental shelf. Below is an illustration showing the current coastline and continental shelf between France and England.

From: extremesciene.com: "The continental shelves are not considered part of the ocean floor proper, but as the flooded margins of a continent. Under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, the name continental shelf was given a legal definition as the stretch of the seabed adjacent to the shores of a particular country to which it belongs. With a few exceptions, the shelf break of the continental margins is located at a remarkably uniform depth of about 460 ft (140m). Scientists believe this depth marks the ancient shorelines of the continents during past ice ages, when sea level was lower than it is now. Along the shores of most of the major continents around the globe, the sea floor slopes gently downward so gradually that a wide shelf forms just offshore. The width of these relatively shallow shelves varies from just a few miles to several hundred miles from shore. At the outermost edges of these shelves the sea floor slopes abruptly and steeply to the abyssal plain. Scientists believe that the continental shelves mark the true outline of the land forms that are our continents and were exposed as shorelines in the geologic past when sea levels were much lower than today." So, before Peleg's day, England, France, and all Scandinavia were connected by land.

From Episode 42 (listen here): The Coming of Apollyon as mentioned in the Book of Revelation has been much discussed by Christians lately. Many believe that Apollyon (also known anciently as "the destroyer" is a super-demon. In ep. 42 of the Gospel Feast Podcast we explore our believe that Apollyon is the actually the Sun (the solar disk at the center of our solar system; i.e. the Sun in the sky.)

Apollo (Attic, Ionic, and Homeric Greek: Ἀπόλλων, Apollōn (GEN Ἀπόλλωνος); Doric: Ἀπέλλων, Apellōn; Arcadocypriot: Ἀπείλων, Apeilōn; Aeolic: Ἄπλουν, Aploun; Latin: Apollō).

Past cultures as diverse as the Aztec in Meso-America and the Medieval French in Europe made "sun calendars" to try and better understand when the Sun would cease to be friendly and get angry. Here are some images of that:

Above: This is the Great Solar Calendar (El Monolito de la Piedra del Sol) which modern scholars believe gives the great final date as December 21st 2012. They believed that it forecasted the end of all things. 9+ years later we know (some of us always did) that it had nothing to do with the end of creation but was rather the Aztecs speculation as to when the Sun (Apollyon in the Greek) would become oppressive. Below: The so-called Great Cross of Hendaye (Croix d'Hendaye). It is a stone cross located on the town square of Hendaye, in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, in southwestern France. Below-er than that: A close up of the Sun being angry.

Below: Some of the signs of Apollyon's power. 1st some pictures of the dreaded Asian Hornet. People who have been stung by one say it's like a hot knife to the skin; and they can sting repeatedly again and again. Then, after that horror, some pictures of a monster locust. These creatures really exist on Earth, right now.

What will mankind do if the changes in nature cause these to multiply and swarm in their full force as an army? Note the "body armour." Interesting and terrifying, no?

One of Apollo's many nicknames was Parnopius in ancient times or (/pɑːrˈnoʊpiəs/ par-NOH-pee-əs; Παρνόπιος, Parnopios), from πάρνοψ, "locust". He was the god of locusts? Why?

Above: The Angry Sun as the Persians understood him: Terrible and powerful. We all know that while the Sun does make plants grow and warms the Earth, the ancients saw him as "the Destroyer." He could be gracious and warming and mean and complicated; exactly like the Greeks describe Apollo. He was both GREAT and Terrible. Stay too long out in the Sun and you get "burned." Actually, the Sun is ultimately the destroyer of anything left in his rays too long. By this brilliant light all things are seen as they truly are. Note this revelation from the Lord: "Which truth shineth. This is the light of Christ. As also he is in the sun, and the light of the sun, and the power thereof by which it was made. (D&C 88:7)

What does that make you think of? How about this?

Above: Here note that the Sun's announcement is a gift to Zion. Does this not fulfill the Lord's statement that His great day would be BOTH great and terrible? Great for those who run to the arms of the His mercy in this His day and terrible for those who will cry out "Hide us from the Face of the He who sits on the Throne, the Lamb of God!" See, it all hangs together in Restored Christianity; the home of the ancient and the sometimes "unspoken" modern.
(As we say in the Gospel Feast Series, "When in doubt, stick with Brother Joseph."

From Episode 47 (listen here): The El Shaddai Stone used in sacred Restored Christian "Mormon" Architecture and Symbology. Ultimately it is a areola and nipple. When the symbol is feminine it is nurture, growth and transformation. When the symbol is masculine it is a sign of strength and protection. Both are found in a family beneath a parent's wing. For a child, and husband, there is no place more nurturing than wrapped in mother's arms held against her breast. For a child and wife, there is no place more evident of male love and protection than held against a father's chest. Thus the sign becomes one of home again in the Celestial palace of our Heavenly Parents. (As a side note for those over the age of 21... How many times have you heard morons and Darwinists express puzzlement at male nipples? They are as dumb as the monkeys they hold up as their fathers... The ancients taught that when a husband and wife became "one flesh" a joining of their individual electrical currents passed from the male phallus (positive charge) into the wife which travelled up into her brain and out through her breasts (positive charge) into the male nipples then up into his brain and down again through his phallus. This created a circle pattern and joining that was considered a sacred experience. The ancient Jews taught this concept to newly married couples after they were taken to the temple's porch and allowed to gaze into the two grand bronze mirrors that stood opposite each other beside the feminine doors, between the masculine pillars. (It was also called the Saturn Stone but that is another lengthy feast, but if you can't wait, you can find the secret to it here.)

From Episode 77 (listen here): As discussed in our QnA feast together on the so-called "Lost Ten Tribes," here are the images discussed.

From Episode 84 (listen here): For all of the images and illustrations mentioned in ep. 84 on the Prophet Joseph Smith photographed. Follow this link.

This is the only photograph of the Prophet Joseph Smith authenticated by his own family in the 1800s during their lifetimes. All other proposed photographs of him are wrong.

From Episode 85 (listen here) & 86 (listen here): Here are the pictures of Jupiter mentioned in our podcast.

Above: NASA's photograph of Jupiter from its "North Pole." In order to capture the image with their camera sensor, they were forced to block out the center with the grey dot as you see above. The light emanating from the center was incredible intense. It is our speculation that it is the Shekinah Glory of the Lord that left Solomon's Temple with the Lord's War Chariot. Either way, do note how Jupiter is literally made up of "wheels within wheels" and "many eyes." This is exactly as Ezekiel described it.
Below: Jupiter's opposite pole. Note that without the forceful Shekinah Glory burning the camera sensor, this image has more depth of color and field. Note again how it is literally "wheels within wheels" and filled with many, many eyes! The better to All-seeing eye you with, my dear!

Do note that while the images for eps. 47 & 77 (above) connect to Saturn, these below connect to Jupiter. In terms of "signs in the heavens" Saturn is understood symbolically to be our Father God and Jupiter is understood symbolically to be Jesus Christ. This is the secret to understanding ancient mythology correctly. They are broken stories which originally taught the truths of the Plan of Salvation.
Below: Jupiter, literally wheels within wheels and full of eyes. This is what Ezekiel saw and what he tried to describe. This is the mighty war chariot of the Lord. It is also the correct meaning of Joseph Smith's version of the 2nd Facsimile, figure 3 in this restoration of the Book of Abraham.

Below: Further evidence that all humanity saw the Lord's War Chariot (Jupiter) when he came near the Earth is the old Greek Key, also known as Zeus's Meander. It is a sytlized interpretation of Jupiter's moving wheels within wheels and the War Chariots to meander wherever the Lord wished to meander. First several examples of Jupiter's swirls as the Greek's pictured them in honor or Zeus. Second a close up of a "meander" as photographed by NASA in 2017. Jupiter is Zeus in Latin.

From Episode 100 (listen here): Here are the pictures of Joseph's Hypocephalus mentioned in our Centennial Podcast.
