WOW!!!

This Day…

February 21, 362: Athanasius returns to Alexandria so he can lead the fight against various Christian heretics such as the Arians. His negative views about the Jews were really part of his fight against Christian heretics. His “anti-Jewish rhetoric served to stigmatize Christians who resisted” the efforts of Athanasius “to reform the Alexandrian (local) practices of Lent and Easter along more international (catholic) lines.” For more on this view of his works and writings one should read “Jewish Flesh and Christian Spirit in Athanasius of Alexandria” by David Burke, Journal of Early Christian Studies - Volume 9, Number 4, Winter 2001, pp. 453-481[1]

364-378 A.D. The task of finding water for Constantinople came to a new Roman ruler named Valens 328-378 who ruled from 364-378. He carried out an audacious plan to create an aqueduct that was the largest in the world. It would transport spring water a staggering four hundred miles. It was longer than all other Roman earlier aqueducts combined. Byzantine Mason’s adorned their bridges with religious carvings. Unlike the Romans, the Byzantines selected Christian, not Pagan, symbols. [2]

February 21, 1519. All Jews expelled from Ratisbon/Regensburg.[3] February 21, 1519: Jews Expelled from Regensburg.[4] Upon the death of Maximilien, the Jewish community at Regensburg numbering approximately 800 souls, (one of the oldest in Germany,) was expelled. The synagogue was destroyed and a chapel, built in its place. About 5,000 gravestones were taken from the Jewish cemetery and used for building the Christian house of worship.[5]

1519: Erasmus’ second edition Novum Testamentum (1519) served as a basis for Luther’s German New Testament (1522)[6] Martin Luther leads Protestant Reformation and challenges the doctrine of ‘Servitus Judaeorum’ “…to deal kindly with the Jews and to instruct them to come over to us”. [7]

1521: Spain conqueres the Aztecs.[8]

Aztec sculpture of Chicomecoatl. Mexico, 1350-1521.[9]



















Stone sculpture of a deity, probably Xochipilli, Aztec (1350-1521). Mexico.[10]



Aztec artwork, Spanish documents, and archaeology all tell us that sacrice was central to Aztec religion. From mild bloodletting to violent death, sacrifice offered thanks to the gods while maintaining the natural order of the world. Rulers also used the threat of sacrifice to intimidate peoples under their control including Aztec citizens. They also encouraged the beliefd that it was an honor to sacrifice one’s life to help preserve the world and its order.[11]





[12]

Sherri Maxson translates the Aztec calendar at the Field Museum.

1521: King Henry VIII has a fever which is believed to be malaria. He is 6 ft. 3 in., waist 32 in. chest 39 in. The average height at the time was about 5 foot 6 in. [13]

February 21, 1743: George Frederic Handel's oratorio, "Samson" premiered in London. The musical was based on the figure depicted in the Book of Judges and is another example of how Jewish culture enriched the culture of the Western World.[14]



February 21, 1766: Hugh Crawford, who had been one of Croghan’s associates in the Indian trade before 1755, conducted Pontiac safely to Oswego where the treaty of friendship was renewed and presents given.[15]



February 21, 1777: On this day in 1777, George Weedon is promoted to the rank of brigadier general of the Virginia Regiment of the Continental Army.

Weedon was an innkeeper in Fredericksburg, Virginia, at the outbreak of the Revolutionary War, but had previously served as a lieutenant under George Washington in western Virginia during the French and Indian War. As the revolution began, Weedon was commissioned lieutenant colonel of the Third Virginia Regiment under Hugh Mercer in 1775. On August 13, 1776, he acceded to Mercer's command as colonel of the 3rd Virginia Regiment. In the fall and winter of 1776, Weedon marched with his troops of the Virginia Regiment alongside General George Washington and the Continental Army in campaigns against the British in New York and New Jersey, including the Battles of Trenton, Brandywine and Germantown. He also commanded Pennsylvania and Virginia regiments in Nathanael Greene's division at Valley Forge.

Weedon resigned the post he was given on this day in history one year later when, at Valley Forge, Congress promoted a rival Virginian and French and Indian War veteran, William Woodford, to a position outranking him. Although he never returned to full duty in the Virginia regiment, Weedon continued his service to his country by leading a brigade of Virginia militia during the Battle of Yorktown in October 1781. Woodford was captured during the siege of Charleston and died in captivity in 1780. Weedon lived to see the new nation established; he died in 1793.

Weedon's orderly book--his record of orders and battle plans--from Valley Forge remains in the holdings of the American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia.[16]



February 21, 1780: It is the gracious order of His Serene Highness that no person belonging to the lower staff or commissaries is to be married in the future without the knowledge and consent of his Excellence Lieutenant General von Knyphausen, whose approval or refusal, after an investigation, is to be final. [1] [17]

Winch, Charles, Framingham, Private, Col. Benjamin Tupper's[18] (10th) regt.; service from Feb. 21, 1781, 22 mos. 7 days.[19]



February 21, 1787: Congress calls for a Constitutional Convention, to take place in Philadelphia.[20]



February 21, 1825

[21]

Deposition signed by Theophilus McKinnon (4th greatgranduncle) and William H. McKinnon, Justice of the Peace, (3rd greatgranduncle), February 21, 1825.

1848

Theopolis McKinnon voted for Taylor in 1848.[22]



1848: At the end of his second term Joseph Vance ( compilers 2nd cousin, 7 times removed) retired to his farm in Urbana. Although he did not hold regular office again, he served as a delegate to the national Whig convention in Philadelphia in 1848 and as a representative of his district to the Ohio Constitutional Convention of 1850-1851. He took a leading part in the debates and was chairman of the committee on public institutions. On his way home from attending sessions of the convention in Cincinnati in December 1850, he suffered a stroke of paralysis and was forced to give up his duties. He died at his home near Urbana on August 24, 1852.[23]



1848: The Washington Monument’s architect, Robert Mills, a freemason, based his design on an ancient Egyptian symbol of power, the obelisk. It is 555 feet. [24] On February 21, 1885: The Washington Monument is dedicated in Washington D.C.[25]



February 21, 1848: Karl Marx published the "Communist Manifesto. " Marx was not Jewish but his father was. This fact has not stopped a myriad of anti-Semites including Adolph Hitler from equating Judaism with Communism.[26]



Sun. February 21[27], 1864

Had preaching twice saw many old acquaintance – weather warmer[28]



February 21, 1865: Late Sept.? After spending four weeks in Libby Prison in Richmond, VA, Gilbert Prey (from Job Kirby's 104th New York Volunteer Infantry, Possibly Job was here as well) was sent to Salisbury, North Carolina for two weeks and then on to Danville, VA, until he was exchanged nearly six months later on February 21, 1865.[29]



February 21, 1865: Confederate troops commanded by General Braxton Bragg evacuate Wilmington, North Carolina.[30]



February 21, 1885: The Washington Monument is dedicated in Washington D.C.[31] In 1848 the Washington Monument’s architect, Robert Mills, a freemason, based his design on an ancient Egyptian symbol of power, the obelisk. It is 555 feet. [32] The Washington Monument, built in honor of America's revolutionary hero and first president, is dedicated in Washington, D.C.

The 555-foot-high marble obelisk was first proposed in 1783, and Pierre L'Enfant left room for it in his designs for the new U.S. capital. After George Washington's death in 1799, plans for a memorial for the "father of the country" were discussed, but none were adopted until 1832--the centennial of Washington's birth. Architect Robert Mills' hollow Egyptian obelisk design was accepted for the monument, and on July 4, 1848, the cornerstone was laid. Work on the project was interrupted by political quarreling in the 1850s, and construction ceased entirely during the American Civil War. Finally, in 1876, Congress, inspired by the American centennial, passed legislation appropriating $200,000 for completion of the monument.

In February 1885, the Washington Monument was formally dedicated, and three years later it was opened to the public, who were permitted to climb to the top of the monument by stairs or elevator. The monument was the tallest structure in the world when completed and remains today, by District of Columbia law, the tallest building in the nation's capital.[33]







February 21, 1921: On February 21, 1921, Judge E. B. Stiles of the Delaware County District Court of Iowa ruled against the defendants, holding that the Buck Creek district was illegally constituted and that the board of directors possessed no authority under the law. To make matters worse, the judge ordered the defendants to pay the costs of the court proceedings. The second battle of Buck Creek was over and the opponents of consolidation, comprising mostly Catholics, had won. Another battle was just beginning. Within a matter of days, Warren H. Winch (the compilers great uncle), the president of the Union School Township board of directors, called a meeting of the board. Winch was the person who only a few days earlier had been the president of the board of directors of the Buck Creek consolidation School District. By now the board was fully polarized into pro and anti school consolidation factions. It waisted little time in passing a resolution formally delimiting the boundaries of the Union No. subdistrict and directed the president to file a new plat of the Union School Township with the county auditor[34].



The Third Battle of Buck Creek:

“If at First You Don’t Succeed, Try, Try Again”



The formation of a consolidated school district in the Buck Creek area had been something of a crusade for the Buck Creek Methodists for almost a year. After the cross-burning incident at the Buck Creek Fair, Catholic opposition to consolidation took a similar form. From that time onward, Catholic families, like their Methodist neighbors, increasingly thought of the controversy in Catholic versus Protestant terms. If Catholic families wished to preserve their country schools, they had little choice but to mobilize as Catholics, not simply as members of particular rural neighborhoods. The Buck Creekers were already mobilized as Methodists, but with apparent victory on the consolidation issue seemingly snatched away by the district court, anti-Catholic feelings among them intensified dramatically. Within a matter of a few weeks, the Ku Klux Klan had signed up almost every man in the Buck Creek Church with ten dollars in his pocket. As Buck Creekers flocked to the Klan, cross burnings became more commonplace. Among Catholics, suspicions ran high. Lifetime friendships dissolved as Catholics suspected their Protestant neighbors of belonging to the Klan. Even lifelong friends and neighbors Warren Winch and “Jimmy” Kehoe no longer spoke to each other. The third battle of Buck Creek was on and it was as shrill as it was misguided.[35]

February 21, 1928: First Conference of Masonic Grand Secretaries' held in Washington, DC, February 21.[36]

1928. The Masonic Services Association raised $86,316.58 for Puerto Rico hurricane relief.[37]

February 21, 1942: In France, Jacques Bielinky described the responses of his non-Jewish fellow citizens to anti-Jewish policies, expressing contempt for their lack of making any attempt to prevent the dismissal of their Jewish colleague. “They did not make the move; cowardice has become a civic virtue.”[38]

February 21, 1943: Dutch Roman Catholic bishops protested against persecution of Jews. This came as part of the response to Nazi recent roundups of Jews in Amsterdam.[39]

Jeff, I don't really think the quote from Matthew:1-5 is anti-semetic. rather I think that the point is that you should truly practice the way of the lord not flaunt your observance for public recognition and then behave as if it was not your standard. I think Martin Luther would use this passage to take to task the catholic Church during his time. eg, indulgences. Hows the leg?



My two cents.



Pete







Pete; I think most people would agree with you. Even for now, in 1519, Martin Luther stands up for the Jews, at least until he realizes they will not voluntarily convert and even he will unleash his own anti-Semitic venom. But on this day the Jews are still being expelled, in Regensburg, Bavaria not far from Werneck, home of Franz Gotlop aka Francis Godlove, and the current Pope who would join the Hitler youth.



The following words of Mathew 6:5 were written about 10 years after the destruction the Temple. Christianity is still on the run. “So whenever you give alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be praised by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward.”



Isn’t Mathew talking about the destruction of the Temple and the Jews being thrown into slavery as “their reward?”



And so he goes on and says it again, “And whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, so that they may be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward.”

Maybe he means “meeting places” when he says synagogues, but today, only Jews go to synagogues. What reward have the Jews received?



Leg is better, thanks!





Jeff
