The Birthstones

 The stones numbered for the children of Israel in Exo 28 - the second was topaz - which is the birthstone for November - why is No. 2 the birthstone for No. 9 (or even 11 in our whacked-out calendar – The Gregorian)? Unless October is the first month. 
 
Topaz means "to see" and was so named for an island in the Red Sea that was difficult to find and from which a yellowish stone was mined in ancient times. Pay attention! We have a yellow stone in the midst of the Red Sea (The Holy See?) which is a difficult (a cult? is a religious sect isn't it? and an occult is a shadowing effect of a planet or moon that hides a source of light from another which is a hard thing indeed to distinguish) island to see.
 
What do you get when you mix yellow and red? You get orange - keep that in mind when we talk about the numbers and their colors (but that is much later).
 
Here's a shocker: The topaz on the Ephod (the Urim and Thummim) represents the tribe of Dan. We all know what happened to Dan? He was excluded from the list in Rev. 7. Also it's history is deep in Apostasy and Idolatry where the two "Holy Cows" show up once again (isn't there a website or a computer company called 'TwoCows'?).
 
Gen 49:16 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
Gen 49:17 Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward.
 
Dan is the tribe where Samson arose out of and was a judge in Israel. He did, as all Israel eventually did, he intermarried with the heathen around him and was corrupted because of it. Samson is a good example of why mortal men cannot reign and rule in this world without the power getting the better of them. He is a good lesson to us in that only when he lost his eyesight did he ever please the Lord. 
 
 2Co 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
 
October's birthstone is the sardius which in Hebrew is called 'odem' which reminds one of 'Adam' which has the same meaning of - ruddy or red. That correlation is obvious enough not to merit explanation for most. Since Adam is the first man then the first month would link significantly back to the "ruddiness" of Adam. 
 
Keep in mind that the birthstones are said to come from the Urim and the Thummin in Exo 28.
 

Also the 'ober' in October is an old German word meaning - upper. Upper as in 'first'(?).
