The Naming of John

In the following paragraphs I will show how the title-name John the Baptist is synonymous with the title-name Zechariah, as well as its correlation with Lazarus (Osiris). The first chapter of Luke makes it clear that there was disbelief and amazement by the masses regarding the naming of Zechariah's son John the Baptist, in that John was supposed to have assumed the title-name Zechariah after his father. Luke 1:59-66 states "And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zachariah, after the name of his father. And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John. And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name. And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called. And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all. And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spake, and praised God. And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judæa. And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him". 

The root of the term Zechariah (Zechar: Zeker: Sakhar) is synonymous with the act of Baptism (as well as with the dawn) as follows. In ancient Sumerian, the very first ruler -Sargon I- is titled 'The Sakhar Lord' which means 'The Baptism Lord'. It is interesting that in Judaism, Baptism does not exist. It does, however, exist in ancient Egyptian tradition, with a connection to the term Seker. In the fifth Hour of the Egyptian Book of the Duat, there is a Lake of Fire which symbolizes both the Baptism by Fire and the Water Baptism, as the waters of this lake torment evil-doers, but are refreshing to the upright. The deity whom rules over the fifth hour of the duat is named Seker, which is interesting because according to the New testament, it is not John the Baptist who baptizes with fire, but rather the one who comes after him (supposedly speaking of Jesus). In Hebrew, the Iah suffix translates as Lord. As such, the title-name Zechariah literally means Baptist (Zechar=Sakhar=Seker) Lord (IAH). In calling the Baptist John, his parents did not take away from the fact that he was nonetheless still to be the Lord of the Baptism: John was his name, and Zechariah ('Baptism Lord' - alternately, 'The Baptist') was - at the time of his naming - his title to come.

There was one main reason why John's parents did not 'name him Zechariah' upfront. John could not be title-named Zechariah until after his father had transited into his own next station, which would have been the station of Holy Ghost: the El Azar(us), or Lazarus... aka, Lord Osiris. As scripture records, Zechariah ascended to the station of Osiris right after he wrote down John's name. Luke 1:67 states "...And his father Zachariah was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying...". The term Osiris literally means "The Holy Ghost (Asar/Osir) Embodied (is)" - a reference to the Egyptian Holy Trinity of Ptah (Father) Seker (Son) and Asar (Holy Ghost). There could not be two Zechariahs or two Osirises at the same time, which would have been the case had Zechariah and Elizabeth named John Zechariah prior to his father's ascension: proper chronological syntax had to take place in order to guarantee proper continuity. As such, shortly after John was named, Zechariah ascended to the title of Osiris, which in turn allowed John to simultaneously ascend to the title of the Baptist (Zechariah).
