Hi, I'm Varrok!
 
Seems like I've never made myself a welcome thread. How rude of me. Bet most of the folks don't recognize me yet, and I just can't let it happen. Hello

It's a variation on the spelling of Nero Ceaser's first name in Hebrew. Jeeze.

Shade667 10-01-2014 09:04 AM

I still dont understand, but I wont press you to explain it.

MeechMunchie 10-01-2014 10:26 AM

666 (or rather, 616) was a Hebrew codename for Julius Caesar, used by anti-establishment Jews to avoid persecution.

Shade667 10-01-2014 07:06 PM

Oh, ur talking about the numbers in my name?

It really was just a random number...

Jeez. I'm glad you explained that so I don't have to admit that I had no idea what you were going on about. I mean, even if you hadn't spelled 'Nero' as 'Nazon' I wouldn't have been able to work it out.

Also, I don't know if there's an accepted Hebrew spelling of Caesar Nero. He dates well after the biblical period, after all.

EDIT: I spent a fruitless ten minutes on the internet trying to find a page in Hebrew of the time Nero was mentioned in the Talmud. No such luck. I did learn that legend holds that Nero converted to Judaism, though. That's exciting.

So what you're telling us is Rome burning was the fault of the Illuminati as well?

No. Why would you even consider the Illuminati as being involved? Obviously it was the Elders of Zion!

I feel we've had this exact exchange before

I'm an old duffer going senile.

Wow... The new guy is far more popular than I was when I made my introductory thread...

Varrok 10-03-2014 08:20 AM
