Sir Isaac Newton has been regarded as one of the greatest scientists of all time. But very few people know that he was deeply interested in the occult & he was a devout Christian.
The great mind applied scientific approach to study scripture & Jewish mysticism. He was so passionate about it that he even learned Hebrew to understand esoteric Jewish philosophy, the mysticism of Kabbala and the Talmud.
Recently Israel's national library has digitized his occult collection and it has been posted online. Which means now these studies are available for everyone to see on the net & the famous prediction of the apocalypse in 2060 is also amongst the texts. It’s a unique opportunity to understand what this scientist discovered so many years ago. He strongly believed that scripture provided a ‘code.'
‘Today, we tend to make a distinction between science and faith, but to Newton it was all part of the same world,' said Milka Levy-Rubin.
'He believed that careful study of holy texts was a type of science, that if analyzed correctly could predict what was to come.'
The papers cover topics such as interpretations of the Bible, theology, the history of ancient cultures, the Tabernacle and the geometry of Solomon's Temple. The collection also contains maps that Newton sketched to assist him in his calculations and his attempts to reveal the secret knowledge he believed was encrypted within. He attempted to project what the end of days would look like, and the role Jews would play when it happened.
