He has more parallels with Zeus. Vengeful, petty, loves adoration etc. Those aren't particularly characteristics of Saturn.

That's meaningless. It's like naming any two gods and saying they're the same, because any god can change into a dominant position. You can do it with a thousand different dominant/father gods from across the world and it still doesn't mean anything because rough analogy doesn't cover the specifics of a god, even being near-identical (which none are) doesn't mean they're one in the same.

Cont.

I barely know about this, but:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_(deity)
>Greek equivalent Cronus
>Israelite equivalent Yahweh

I assume it was symbolized as the bull (Taurus) because it's from premoses times. Moses symbolized by the ram (Aries). Jesus by the fish (Pisces). The next , Jesus says will be a man bearing water (Aquarius).

This is the so called 'Procession of he Equinox' which is based on astronomical fact.
It's kind of mind bending to think about.

As for Saturn, it's technically the seventh day on Saturday which is also Shabbos.

Retard.
These are characteristics you later project because you can't appreciate the cultures. The basic view is a soft 'might is right' so these gods are gods because they're strong and willful. No one would care about a weak god. Gods do what they will, not what a religion (human) dictates. Sensibilities are generally different now because no one believes in gods, the christian god is not really a true god. It's an atheistic placeholder. Merely a box to shove shallow philosophical generalisations and rules into, not a being of its own mind and will, not a character. Gods are vastly superior to humans and can provide support/favour/power to said humans, yet are not bound either way. That is why they are worshipped, not because they're a good tool of control or because they're so kind and loving. Do you expect a king to care about some nameless peasant of no renown? No, but he might spare the peasant some bad circumstances if the peasant pays tax and works hard. And he might make the peasant a noble if he proves his worth a hero, or he might think him uppity and execute him. He's king, he's not beholden. Actually, a king is more beholden than a god. A god is just limited by power when interacting with other gods, a king is quite severely limited by social and economic factors.

Exactly, Zeus was a chad, Yahweh was a yandere. Zeus would never bother with """immaculate""" conception, or strike down followers who worshipped other than him.

OT God is inarguably a much more powerful God.

>"born of a virgin"

>He evidently never read the original Hebrew text of Isaiah, but settled for reading the Greek translation, the Septuagint.
>The word in Isaiah (7:14) translated as "virgin" is alma, which just means young woman, irrespective of her sexual history. The Hebrew word for virgin is betula

>>11629646
I agree. The Christian God is indicative of Pisces traits, which is why there are constant fish references in the NT and why you see the Jesus fish on the bumper of cars.

It's also interesting to note that the Bible seems to be (OT) what the powerful do and (NT) how the masses should behave.
>Then Jesus said to the (gentile) woman, "I was sent only to help God's lost sheep--the people of Israel."

What if I told you that Jesus, the so called bread of life - meant to represent all of his followers, was meant to replace the Tree of Life that was lost so that the chosen can once again feed on it as they did before they were banished from Eden?
