Job 38:12-13 Does Venus Shake out the Wicked?
By: Kevin Heckle
To the point of Job 38:12; seems odd that the passage would repeat itself a morning and a morning. The two different words Hebrew words are H1242 boqer and H7837 shachar. I certainly agree that the light of day sheds light on the darkness of sin. Some love the darkness other than the light because their deeds are evil. However, I believe the Word of God is telling us something more:
God uses the planet Venus for Judgment upon the Earth
Before I explain, let’s look at the latter word shachar. The KJV interprets shachar as ‘dayspring’ only once, ‘morning’ twelve times and various counts for ‘day, early and light’. Once in Psalms 22:1 it is interpreted as “Shahar” which is indicative of the etymology. Shahar is a cognate of the Canaanite ‘goddess of the dawn’ and “Shalim” as its brother, “god of the dusk”. These were identified by the prominent Biblical archeologist William Albright in his book ‘Yahweh and the gods of Canaan’. In the Dictionary of Deities and Demons in the Bible, Shahar is identified with Venus as its ‘morning star’ version and Shalim as the ‘evening star’ version of Venus. Shahar and Shalim were conceived of by the Canaanites as the ‘beginning and the end’. By the way, many scholars believe Shalim is in the word Jerusalem.
To the ancients, Venus was two different stars: the morning star as it appeared in the east and the evening star as it appears in the west. In fact, the origin of our words the east and west were from the Greek mythical characters Eosphoros and Whesphoros. Most Modern Greek spellings of the latter drop the digamma or W and the mythical character is known as Hesperous instead. The words were combined into Phosphoros (G5459) when the Greeks discovered the two celestial bodies were really one and the same. G5459 phosphoros is identified as the DAY STAR in 2 Peter 1:19, as arisen in your heart (Jesus).
Venus spends about 292 days as its eastern version and 292 days as the western, although it is only visible for 255 days or so per side. Morning star to morning star is 583.92 days as is evening star to evening star.
Job 38:12b-13 (God causes) the dayspring (Shahar) to know his place, that it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?
Is it possible that God has used the dayspring, in a specific place (conjunction with the sun) to take hold of the ends of the earth (gravitationally) that the wicked would be shaken (EARTHQUAKE) out of it?
The first Biblical occurrence of the word Shahar is in Genesis 19:15:
And when the morning (H7837 Shahar) arose (ascended), then the angels hastened LOT saying , Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city (Sodom).
We all know what happened next.
In Joshua 6:15:
On the seventh day, at the ascending (H5927) of Shahar (H7837 interpreted as day) they compassed the city seven times.
We all know what happened next (the ground started shaking).
Song od Soloman 6:10
Who [is] she [that] looketh forth as the morning (H7837 Shahar), fair as the moon, clear as the sun, [and] terrible as [an army] with banners?
The American Institute of Physics (#325, story #4) it was reported that the tail of Venus, an ion plume, was detected by SOHO as reaching the earth orbit. It is plausible that this ion plume was illuminated (similar to an aurora) in the distant past streaming from the orbiting Venus like a terrible army with banners.
However, is there any evidence that Venus has caused wide spread destruction like an earthquake? Below is a chart indicating the possibility. Orbital resonance's are not completely understood. It could be that the ancients recognized its effects thousands of years ago.
The chart lists earthquakes of 6.0 and larger occurring within plus or minus one month of an Earth-Venus-Sun conjunction (every 292 days) from 2004 to present. All caused injury, death or destruction of property. In 2004, a 6.9 occurs within 2 days of the transit of Venus; In March of 2005, an 8.6 earthquake occurs in Indonesia on the very day of the conjunction; In 2006, two conjunctions occurred and at the same times, a total of ten 6.6 or greater earthquakes occurred within under 14 days of the conjunctions; in 2008 the 8.0 earthquake in Peru was particularly severe, within 1 day. In 2010, Haiti had an earthquake within one day of the conjunction causing over 250,000 deaths. The last conjunction in October of 2010 occurred only two days after a 7.8 earthquake in Indonesia.
Consider this: the Krakatoa volcanic eruption in Indonesia (the most powerful in recorded history) on August 27, 1883, was within 22 days of the conjunction of Venus-Sun-Earth, along with a superior conjunction of Mercury-sun-Mars, perpendicular to the VES alignment 9-18-1883
I wondered why the great Tsunami of 2004 didn’t coincide with the other apparent correlations. However, it quite possibly is related to the transit of 2004 which occurred 200 days earlier. I did find a mathematical and orbital relationship between those dates.
The Venus transit (rare occurrence in cycles of 243 years) occurred on June 8, 2004. The regular conjunction cycle is 583.92 days on average from one conjunction of the same type to the next of the same type. Five 583.92 day conjunction periods falls nearly on an integer number of 8 years (2921.93 days) at 2919.6 days. 1/1000 x 2919.6 = 2.9196. 583.92 ÷ 2.9196 = 200 days. June 8, 2004 plus 200 days equals December 25, 2004. The 9.0 earthquake/tsunami occurred within 16 hours.
The planetary configuration was as follows: Earth-Venus and Mercury were in alignment; and Mars-Venus-Sun was in inferior alignment. This configuration may have placed extraordinary strain on earth’s tectonic plates, causing the Earthquake/Tsunami on the 26th.
Doubling John’s 1260 (2520) days and add it to December 25, 2004 and the result is 11-19-11. On this date, the planetary alignment is the SAME, except Mars-Venus-Sun are in superior alignment, with Venus-Mercury-Earth alignment rolled on the opposite side, parallel to the 2004 configuration.
The Transit of 2012 on June 6 is at the opposite pole of the sun, just as this alignment is on the opposite side. Using the same math as before yielding 200 days, subtract it from 6-6-2012 and the date is as pictured above 11-19-2011.

The numbers of Daniel 12:
1260 (assumed), 1290, 1335
Forward sum – 3885, forward difference – 1365, reverse difference – 1215
Average – 1295, Average of 1295 & 1365 = 1330, Average of 1295 & 1215 = 1255
3885 ÷ 1215 = 3.1975308; 365.2421896 (tropical year);
182.621 x 3.1975308 = 583.936 days
3885 ÷ 1330 = 2.9210526; 2.9210526 x 1000 = 2921.0526 = 13 x 224.696 (Venus Orbital Tropical Period is 224.695 days)
1215 years is five 243 year transit periods. Transits occur in 129.5, 121.5 year (over lapping 8 years) 105.5, and 113.5 year intervals.
The precess (CW) period of the 8 year cycles, moving every fifth conjunction clockwise (as viewed from the NP sun) returns in 1199 years sidereal, 1215.0276 years tropical (observed) and mathematically it takes a 1255 years for full tropical return to the first conjunction. This 1255 year conjunction period if occurring on the equinox, will recur on the equinox every 1255 years, even though the equinox moves 17.53± degrees in 1255 years.
1290 is 2.5 x 360 plus 1 x 390. Inverseà1335 is 2.5 x 390 plus 1 x 360.
360 + 390 = 750; 750 x 583.9206 (sidereal) =437940.45 days = 1198.9947 sidereal years – full sidereal return
1295/3.5 = 370; (370+360)/2 = 365
370 + 390 = 760; 760 x 583.9202 (tropical) = 443779.34987 days = 1215.0276241 tropical years or 355.1526 days ahead of 1216 (divisible by 8) ~ median time 1215.51381205 years.
1215.51381205/3885 = .312873568; 2300 (Dan 8); 2300 x .31287356809 = 719.6092066190 days; 719.6092066190 – 365.2421896 (tropical year) = 354.36701(Lunar Year of 12 x 29.530585 days per month average) this is a difference of 33/100ths of a second from the actual average month.
The sanctuary (Nisan 1 equinox) is reconciled by 2300 mornings and evenings. From Venus eastern heliacal rising (morning star to morning star) and Venus western appearance (evening star to evening star) on average is 583.92 day interval. Ideally, if the 5th conjunction occurred on exactly an even integer number of 8 tropical years then 584.387503 would be the ideal period (mathematically).
584.387503 x 2300 = 1344091.2569 days or 3680 years. If one lunisolar cycle of precession is a ‘great week’, then 3680 years x 7 is 25760 years. This is within 9.55 years of the precession estimated time period.
