The Exact Dead Center of the City of Jerusalem Is 666 LATITUDE & LONGITUDE 11:8. And their bodies shall lie in the streets of the great city which is called spiritually, Sodom and Egypt: where their Lord also was crucified. The Holy Bible, Revelation Latitude is shown as a horizontal line and is the angular distance, in degrees, minutes, and seconds of a point north or south of the Equator. Lines of latitude are often referred to as parallels. Longitude is shown as a vertical line and is the angular distance, in degrees, minutes, and seconds, of a point east or west of the Prime (Greenwich) Meridian. Lines of longitude are often referred to as meridians. Distance between Lines If you divide the circumference of the earth (approximately 25,000 miles) by 360 degrees, the distance on the earth's surface for each one degree of latitude or longitude is just over 69 miles, or 111 km. Minutes and Seconds For precision purposes, degrees of longitude and latitude have been divided into minutes (') and seconds ("). There are 60 minutes in each degree. Each minute is divided into 60 seconds. Seconds can be further divided into tenths, hundredths, or even thousandths. The exact center of the city of Jerusalem (Yerushalayim) is 31° 47' 00 N by 35° 13' 00 E. If we add the numbers we get:    31° 47' 00 N +35° 13' 00 E ---------------- 6 6 6 . 00 This, of course, may simply be a coincidence, but the probability of this happening is over 99,999,999 to one.

In Solomon's Power Brokers, by Freemasons Knight and Butler, wherein the authors describe " Solomon's New World Order", we read: "The location of Jerusalem is no accident, because it is an ideal place to observe sunrises and sunsets. The angle of shadows cast by the rising and setting sun vary by longitude. At the equator, every day is more or less equally divided into light and dark and the Sun rises due east and sets due west. At the poles, the Sun never sets in Summer and never rises in Winter. In between these extremes, the angle between the two solstices increases the further one travels away from the equator. The latitude of Jerusalem is 31 degrees 47' north, which means that the angle of the shadows cast by the winter and summer solstices is precisely 60 degrees. To observe this, all that was necessary was to draw a circle on the ground and place a vertical stick in the east and another on the other side on the west. On the morning of the winter solstice the easterly stick would cast a shadow 30 degrees north of center and that evening the westerly stick would cast a shadow 30 degrees south of west. On the morning of the winter solstice the easterly stick would cast a shadow 30 degrees north of center and that evening the westerly stick would cast a shadow 30 degrees south of west. The reverse would be the case at the summer solstice, creating a diamond shape inside the circle. A north-south line accross both angles produces a signature that is unique to this latitude--and at Jerusalem it forms a perfect six-pointed star that is known as either the Seal of Solomon or the Star of David. So, the symbol that has recently become the emblem of Judaism and of the modern state of Israel is a solar diagram that celebrates the remarkable geographical position that the city of Jerusalem occupies. Hiram Abif would have understood this perfectly well, because Jerusalem had been a famous place of worship for this very reason since the Stone Age. But his interest was in more than just the basic sunrise and sunset patterns. The name 'Jerusalem' in the Cannanite language means 'foundation for observing Venus rising', and Hiram wanted to calculate the movements of Venus and of the highly complex patterns of the Shekinah as it rises ahead of the Sun."
