>>21090417The Romans borrowed many of their deities from the Greeks (and Greeks got them from the Babylonians), it is in fact to them that we owe the present names of the planets in the western world so that, to this day, the planets still bear the names of the gods.
>Kronos became Saturnus, the god of civilization>Zeus became Iuppiter, Diespiter, or simply lovis, and, like his counterparts throughout the world, was considered king of all the gods.>Ares became Marspiter, also known as Mavors a god of war as blood-thirsty as his Greek counterpart Aphrodite became Venus retaining her position as the queen of Jove and feminine beauty.Hermes became Mirqurius and was honored as the god of merchandise.
etc.
and let us be honest: it has long been known that Saturn was the god of the jews.
In more recent years, for instance, Carl Jung knew very well that Saturn was the star of Israel.
Much earlier, Aurelius Augustinus was more explicit when he informed his readers that the ancients considered the planet Saturn as the god of the jews.
Throughout the Middle Ages, the jews were largely known as the "People of Saturn" (as so, incidentally, were the Scythians).
This belief, however, is much older than that since even the Roman historian Tacitus (c. A.O. 55-117) described the Jews as worshipping the planet Saturn as their god.
