    Small Scale City Models. What do we know about them?

    The main building of the 3rd Temple as per Ezekiel 40-48 will be a tall narrow building 100 cubits tall and 20 wide (opinions of the cubit have it between 18 & 24 inches) and will have gates 50 cubits by 10 cubits. This may seem unaesthetic and structurally unstable, but this is the tradition

    London: Chronology of Events published in 1686

    The model of a 1600 London from the opening minutes of the 1944 movie "Henry V" is remarkable. Who made it? Maybe we really are tiny people living in a giant's realm!

    Has KD read the new books by Mickoski "Exposing the Expositions: Ancient Rome in America 1851-1915"? and Levi's "Evidence of the Old World"? Can KD give us a mini-critique on them?

    "…scientists have announced tantalizing hints that the universe is actually relatively small, with a hall-of-mirrors illusion tricking us into thinking that space stretches on forever….Weeks and his colleagues, a team of astrophysicists in France, say the WMAP results suggest that the universe...
