Gnostic Mysteries of the Bible | The Mysteries of Anointment

The Judeo-Christian Bible is replete with profound symbolism, most notably the mysteries pertaining to the anointment of prophets and kings.  This lecture explores the esoteric meaning of anointment through oil (Hebrew: שֶׁמֶן shemen, semen, or creative sexual energy) and how this spiritual force aids the sincere practitioner of any religion towards psychological purification and redemption. This lecture also explains the Gnostic Gospel of Philip, the Book of Genesis, the anointment of Jesus before his Passion by the woman of Bethany, as well as the coronations of King Saul and King David in the Old Testament.
