GGS11s6: Mary's post-Chanukah Timeline and wry Commentary, cont.
Channel: Brain Outy
Date: 2012-03-29

Mary next accounts Time from Caesar crossing the Rubicon, forward to Millennium, with wry wordplay: intro to her use of Haggai 2:22.  For easier viewing, download the newly-revised MagnificatMeterDraft2.doc;  it now lists the historical references next to her meter numbers, and how Zecharias plays off Mary's meter.  Synoptics series Episodes 12-21,  will introduce her use of Haggai 2, in much more detail.  (Haggai 2 tells us the Lord was to be born on what we now call, Chanukah.  That's why Mary's Magnificat is a timeline of Chanukah.)

Correction re Mary's focus on Tiberius, in her syllable 150 = 13BC, before he even came to power.  Due to Augustus' bouts of illness, Tiberius' co-regency periods were several; often unofficial, not merely from 12AD forward.  In 13BC, he was consul (see http://books.google.com/books?id=XohfAAAAMAAJ&pg=PR42&q&f=false ).  Augustus kept preferring other successors to Tiberius; but the others, successively died.  Meanwhile, Tiberius was asked to give up everything, including his wife -- Augustus had Tiberius divorce Vipsania and marry Augustus' daughter Julia -- to be 'eligible' for succession.  So Mary wryly tags him with 'lifts the humiliated'.  The year before she spoke, Tiberius was compelled to marry Julia:  due to Augustus' prior favored folks, all dying.  So Mary dates a current scandal, back to when he first became eligible as successor (i.e., due to consulship, when only age 29-30).

Agrippa died the same year: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_Vipsanius_Agrippa ; but Cambridge says early the following year, http://books.google.com/books?id=JZLW4-wba7UC&pg=PA97&q&f=false

So did Lepidus.  Here's the Res Gestae: http://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Roman/Texts/Augustus/Res_Gestae/2*.html

How ironic.  In 13/12BC, Antipater, who in 5BC was disgraced, had been 'lifted' to be Herod's heir: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antipater_(son_of_Herod_the_Great)
How ironic.  In same year, law passed forbidding lower soldiers to marry: http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/4135186?uid=3739920&uid=2129&uid=2&uid=70&uid=4&uid=3739256&sid=55963834443

Another correction:  Christ's Scheduled death is mapped in Luke 1:55's kathos elalEsen pros tous pateras.  He would actually die earlier, ending at pros.  I kept confusing the two distinctions in the video, sorry.
