The Jews’ Six-Pointed Star

The so-called “Star of David” is “an ancient symbol” purportedly used by Egyptians, Hindus, Chinese, and Peruvians. The Universal Jewish Encyclopedia, 1943, volume 9, p. 506.

The ‘Star of David’ was Originally the ‘Star of Moloch’

“In the book, The Book of Talismans, Amulets and Zodiacal Gems [by William Thomas and Kate Pavitt, 1961, p. 38], the six-pointed star or hexagram is again called the Seal of Solomon. It is described as an ancient talisman and the book admits that it did not originate with King Solomon…It was used in the practices of worship to Ashteroth and Moloch long before Solomon was born.” O. J. Graham (Protestant, born Jewish), The Six-Pointed Star, 1984, p.33.

The six-pointed star was used on coins issued by the murderous Canaanite-Jew King Herod.

The Six-Pointed Star is From the Jewish Cabala

The six-pointed star is a major symbol in Jewish Cabalist teachings. The Universal Jewish Encyclopedia, 1940, volume 2, p. 614-620 and volume 9, 1943, p. 507.

The six-pointed star became the Rothschild (Jewish) family’s personal symbol in or before 1822 and was made the Jewish Zionist Symbol at the First Zionist Congress in 1897. The Six-Pointed Star, p.50-51 and The New Standard Jewish Encyclopedia, 1992, p. 618.

Lack of Knowledge Leads People to Presume ‘David’ was the Israelite ‘King David’

Due to lack of knowledge, many people make the totally unwarranted presumption that the “David” associated with the “Star of David” is King David of the Israelites. (King David was not a Jew.)

‘David’ of ‘The Star of David’ was Actually Menahem ben Duji

A much more reasonable conclusion is that the “David” in the name of “The Star of David” is an Ashkenazic Jew named Menahem ben Duji who changed his name to David-al-Roy and claimed he was the messiah. David-al-Roy was the original Jewish Zionist. In the 1100’s, he led an attempted Jewish invasion of Palestine that ended in failure. He used the six-pointed star on his battle flag. Curiously, the first Jewish writing that contains the name “Star of David” is from the 1100’s, precisely at the time of David-al-Roy. Some Jewish writers are of the opinion that it was at the time of David-al-Roy that the “Six-Pointed Star” became a nationalistic emblem of the Zionist Jews. David-al-Roy was supposedly killed in his sleep by his father-in-law who was a paid assassin. The Six Pointed Star, p. 21-22; Arthur Koestler (Jewish), The Thirteenth Tribe, 1976, p. 136-137; The Universal Jewish Encyclopedia, 1939, volume 1, p. 206-207 and volume 9, 1943, p. 507.

Jewish Statements on King David

It’s unlikely that the “David” of the “Star of David” is the Israelite King David…despite all the permitted folklore and misdirection in that direction. The reason is that Jews have had a hesitant and mixed opinion of King David.

On the one hand, Jews claim Israelite King David “is the incarnation of the people’s soul; he is one of the most important figures in the history of mankind.” The Universal Jewish Encyclopedia, 1941, volume 3, p. 482.

On the other hand, Jewish commentators say the praise of the Israelite King David in the Jewish Babylonian Talmud is “offensive” and was the work of Christian infiltrators who put the praise of David in the Bible to pump up King David’s stature all because Jesus Christ is a descendant of King David…and the Christians wanted the Babylonian Talmud to glorify King David so this false glory would reflect favorably on Jesus Christ.

Finally, on the third hand, the Jewish Babylonian Talmud and other Jewish sources make bizarre and unfavorable statements about King David.

Christian Infiltrators Wrote Praise of King David into The Talmud

Michael L. Rodkinson (Jewish, real name M. Levi Frumkin) in his translation of the Jewish Babylonian Talmud said that “Jews-Christians” infiltrated the Rabbis and wrote offensive passages in the Talmud.

Rodkinson makes this statement:

“[Israelite King] David, however, was found wholly stainless, the goblet was predestined for him, and only he was allowed to grasp it and praise therewith the Omnipotent! This legend is to be found in Talmud (Pesachim, 119).” The Babylonian Talmud, Rodkinson Translation, Volume 10, First Section, Appendix A, p. 135.

According to Rodkinson, the above quote is an example of an offensive passage in the Talmud…offensive because it glorifies Israelite King David. Here’s Rodkinson’s analysis of the above quote from his Appendix to the Talmud:

“In like manner [to other offensive passages] the forgoing David legend may have originated in these circles [the ‘Jews-Christians’ infiltrators writing portions of the Talmud]. Indeed, David was far from being stainless; he himself was conscious of it and expressed it in a penitential psalm to which we refer (Psalm 51). But as the pretended ancestor of Jesus the adherents of the latter surrounded him [King David] with dazzling though undeserved glory. (We [Rodkinson], in our new edition of the Talmud have omitted both legends concerning David, as we are certain they are not to be ascribed to the Rabbis of the Talmud; see also our edition (Betza, 49) footnotes. We have omitted the whole saying but Maelitis, for the same reason.” The Babylonian Talmud, Rodkinson Translation, Volume 10, First Section, Appendix A, p. 136.

Here’s a quote that Rodkinson also rejects but nevertheless is part of The Babylonian Talmud, this quote continues the quote given three paragraphs above:

“… (Pesachim, 119). But the very same so highly revered David is somewhere else coupled together with dogs, and, in defiance of all shame and discretion, treated even worse than a dog—in the sense of Justus and Ecker. It is namely recorded: David died, and his son and successor to the throne Solomon, had his messenger ask in the college as follows: ‘The remains of my royal father are exposed to the scorching sun rays, the dogs of my father’s household are hungry and menace them, may I in view of all this touch on the day of Sabbath the remains, and have them sheltered?’ Hereupon came the answer: ‘First of all satisfy the hunger of the dogs by having a carcass cut to them; thereafter put upon your father’s corpse a loaf of bread or a child, then you may have it removed into the shade.’ Contemplating this, Solomon made in his later years the utterance: ‘Truly the living dog is better than the dead lion.’ Thus reads the legend in Talmud (Sabbath, 32.)” The Babylonian Talmud, Rodkinson Translation, Volume 10, First Section, Appendix A, p. 135.

The Praise of King David in the Talmud Is Offensive to Certain Jews

Saying good things about King David was offensive to certain Jews. Why? Because the Christians (and The Holy Bible) stated Jesus Christ is a descendant of King David!

[Louis Marshall, the President of the American Jewish Committee from 1912-1929 and other members of the American Jewish Committee were among the Jews financing Rodkinson’s edition of The Babylonian Talmud.]

This Sounds Like a ‘Twilight Zone’ Story Starring Robert Redford

The Universal Jewish Encyclopedia repeats the Jewish Babylonian Talmud story under “DAVID” but does not reject it:

“The story of David’s death is related [in the Jewish Babylonian Talmud] as follows: David, fearing that his end was near, devoted his days to the study of the Torah, knowing that as long as he did this the angel of death had no power over him. However, when the destined day approached, which happened to be a Sabbath, the angel of death, instead of coming near David, made a loud noise in the garden; David stopped his study, went out to investigate and fell and died. His body lay on the ground for some time, since it could not be moved on the Sabbath; finally Solomon devised the expedient of using it as a means of transporting the food to the palace dogs, since they could be fed on the Sabbath. Thereupon the wise successor of David exclaimed: ‘A living dog is better than a dead lion’ (Eccl. 9:4; Sab. 30ab).” The Universal Jewish Encyclopedia, 1941, volume 3, p. 482.

Bizarre Jewish Statements About King David

Some of the bizarre Jewish stories involving King David are:

King David was born already circumcised.

When God created King David, God had only allowed David to live three hours, but when Adam heard about it, Adam gave David 70 years of his (Adam’s) life…and that’s why Adam lived only 930 years rather than the 1000 years God had originally planned. [Of course, God had originally planned eternal life for Adam not the 1,000 years claimed by the Talmud.]

King David had the ability to give a person leprosy…and that’s how David defeated Goliath…he first gave Goliath leprosy…which soften Goliath up for the kill.

The Universal Jewish Encyclopedia, 1941, volume 3, p. 482.

Conclusion: It’s David-al-Roy’s Zionist Battle Flag Symbol

Considering all of the above, the “David” of the “Star of David” is almost certainly the early Jewish Zionist David-al-Roy and certainly not the Israelite King David.
