9. The forty martyrs who were tortured to death by nre, oold, and frost.

11. Sophronius, Patriarch of Jerusalem.

25. ~KHMtt<a<!o &[Kc<tM!NMB 2)e!p<!)fB. Gabriel came to Marv announcing to her the Messiah. From this day until the day of His birth M a little more than 9 months and 5 days, which is the natural space of time for a child's sojoum in the mother'a womb. Jesus, though he had no human father, and though supported by the Holy Ghost, was in Hia earthly life subject to the laws of nature. And so It is only proper that 10 also His sojourn in the womb of His mother should have been in agreement with nature.

The mean place of the moon at noon of this day, Monday the 25th Adhâr A. Alex. 303, for Jerusalem, was about 50 minutes in the first degree of Taurus. Those, now, who follow in the matter of the ~MBtMdMr (:.e. a certain method of investigation for the purpose of finding the ascendena or horoscope under which a child is born) the theory of Hermes the Egyptian, must assume the last part of Alies and the beginning of Taurus as the ascetK~M of the Messiah. However, Aries and Taurus were <MCMn!tt~ at the time Christ was born, during the day- 20 time, because the mean place of the sun for Jerusalem for noon of Thuraday following after the night in which Christ was born, is about 2 degrees and 20 minutes of Capricorn. The above-mentioned time of Christ's sojourning in His mother's womb (9 months 5 days) is, according to their theory, a conditio si'tM g<t<! )t0): for every child that is born in the night of Christmas, when the moon is standing under the earth at a distance of circumference from the degree of the horoscope. Now, knowing so much about the moon's place on the day of the Annunciation, we find that the horoscope (of the hour of Christ's birth) was near 24 degrees of Pisces. And if we compute the mean place of the moon 30 for the 25th of Kânûn I. for the time when she stands under the earth at thé distance of circumference, we find the horoscope to have been nearly 20 degrees in Aries.

Both calculations, however, (that of the astrologers and AlMrunî's own) are worthless, because those who relate the birth of Christ relate that it occurred at night, whilst our calculations would lead to the assumption that it oecurred in the day. This is one of the considérations which clearly show thé worthlessness of the .N~u~ro. We shall dedicate a special book to the genera and apecies of the N~tttHHMM, wheM we shall exhaust the subject and not conceal the truth, if God permits 40 me to live so long as that, and if He by His mercy delivers me from the remainder of pain and illness.

Adhâr.
