Readers comment: "irrefutable and well documented."
The
Six-Pointed Star is going into its fourth edition. There have been thousands of
letters over the years and comments are available upon request. The questions
which are asked of this author are: "What made you even remotely curious that
the six-pointed star might not be "Jewish"? After all, it is called the "star of
David" and has it not become the international insignia of Jewishness and the
State of Israel?" The controversy and the challenge are answered in the book.
The quest began at York University, Ontario, Canada, when an Orthodox Jewish
friend of mine was investigating Messianic Judaism. Our intellectual
conversation covered many topics which included the so-called Star of David,
which he said he did not use as the symbol G-d really gave the children of
Israel was the seven-branched Menorah. Being a journalist, he challenged me
to explore the six-pointed star. And I accepted the challenge, with the plan
that I would prove its Jewishness. After all, I wore one and felt I had to
defend it, even to him. That was the summer of 1979 and the research took me
four years to complete. I found a few Jews who knew it was not Jewish, and these
are mentioned in the book. Others did not think about it, and most did not care
whether it was orignially occult or not -they did not think it mattered. I
checked Jewish sources and all their encyclopaedias attested that it was not
originally Jewish and was not used as the symbol for any of the twelve tribes of
Israel. Jewish sources said it wasn't originally Jewish. So, what was it? That
took four years of research. From archive to archive, library to
library...history book to history book. The first mention of the star ?? was in
Amos 5:26("But you carried a tabernacle for your Moloch, the image of your idols, the star of your god, which you made to yourselves") regarding the trek from Egypt to Canaan. Then in 922 B.C., when
Solomon married the daughter of Pharoah and went into magic and witchcraft and
built an altar to Ashtoroth and Moloch. The book traces the six pointed star
from Egypt to Solomon, to Arab magic and witchcraft, to Druid use(references
are documented). The book traces the star through freemasonry usage to Mayer
Amschel Bauer, who, in the 17th century, changed his name to depict the red
six-pointed star (or shield) which he had hung on his door in Germany, and thus
began the family of "Red Shield" or Rothschild. The research carried on through
this family, to their court of arms, to Cabala, to astrology, to Hitler and his
putting a yellow six-pointed star on all Jews during the holocaust, to the
Zionist symbol, and finally to the flag of the State of Israel and beyond.
Because this symbol is comprised of a six within a six within a six (6 points, 6
triangles, 6 sides of the hexagon in the middle) the research also included a
look at the 666 prophecies in the Book of Daniel etc., regarding the "wilful
King" (anti-Christ) and the "mark of the beast". The Scriptural
significance of the number seven and a Biblical description of the real Messiah
and the seven-branched Candlestick (Menorah) which God gave to the children of
Israel as an everlasting covenant (which is also mentioned in the New
Testament) is covered. All the sources are written at the bottom of each
page making it easy for readers to see and check for themselves. I started out
to defend this symbol, but ended up shocked and quite devasted with the evidence
gleaned from the academic research. It is the only book on the origin and
history of the six-pointed star or hexagram. Have a good read, check the
references yourself, and I would be happy to hear your comments. All the best to
you.
