Do your children know this? – Do their teachers? – Do you? Who Was Haym Solomon?
Read
this fascinating history of the $1 bill all the way to the bottom to
know about Haym Solomon. You may be in for quite a surprise!
On
the rear of the One Dollar bill, you’ll see two circles. Together, they
comprise the Great Seal of the United States. The First Continental
Congress requested that Benjamin Franklin and a group of men come up
with a Seal. It took them four years to accomplish this task and another
two years to get it approved.
If you look at the left-hand circle, you’ll see a Pyramid.
Notice
the face is lighted, and the western side is dark. This country was
just beginning. We hadn’t begun to explore the west or decide what we
could do for Western Civilization. The Pyramid is uncapped, again
signifying that we weren't even close to being finished. Inside the
Capstone you have the all-seeing eye, an ancient symbol for divinity. It
was Franklin's belief that one man couldn't do it alone, but a group of
men, with the help of God, could do anything.
“IN GOD WE TRUST” is on this currency.
The Latin above the pyramid, ANNUIT COEPTIS, means, “God has favored our undertaking.”
The Latin below the pyramid, NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM, means, “a new order has begun.”
At the base of the pyramid is the Roman numeral for 1776. (MDCCLXXVI)
If
you look at the right-hand circle, and check it carefully, you'll learn
that it’s on every National Cemetery in the United States. It’s also on
the Parade of Flags Walkway at the Bushnell, Florida National Cemetery,
and is the centerpiece of most heroes' monuments. Slightly
modified, it’s the seal of the President of the United States, and it’s
always visible whenever he speaks, yet very few people know what the
symbols mean.
The Bald Eagle was selected as a symbol for victory
for two reasons: First, he isn’t afraid of a storm; he’s strong, and
he’s smart enough to soar above it. Secondly, he wears no material
crown. We had just broken from the King of England. Also, notice the
shield is unsupported. This country can now stand on its own.
At the
top of the shield there’s a white bar signifying congress, a unifying
factor. We were coming together as one nation. In the Eagle's beak you
read, “E PLURIBUS UNUM” meaning, “from many – one.”
Above
the Eagle, we have the thirteen stars, representing the thirteen
original colonies, and any clouds of misunderstanding rolling away.
Again, we were coming together as one.
Notice
what the Eagle holds in his talons. He holds an olive branch and
arrows. This country wants peace, but we will never be afraid to fight
to preserve peace. The Eagle always wants to face the olive branch, but
in time of war, his gaze turns toward the arrows. An
(untrue) old-fashioned belief says that the number 13 is an unlucky
number which is almost a worldwide belief. You'll almost never see a
room numbered 13, or any hotels or motels with a 13th floor. But think
about this: America, which relies on God (not a number) to direct and lead, boldly chose:
13 original colonies,
13 signers of the Declaration of Independence ,
13 stripes on our flag,
13 steps on the pyramid,
13 letters in “Annuit Coeptis,”
13 letters in “E Pluribus Unum,”
13 stars above the eagle,
13 bars on that shield,
13 leaves on the olive branch,
13 fruits,
and if you look closely,
13 arrows.
And
finally, notice the arrangement of the 13 stars in the right-hand
circle. You’ll see that they are arranged as a Star of David.
This
was ordered by George Washington who, when he asked Haym Solomon, a
wealthy Philadelphia Jew, what he would like as a personal reward for
his services to the Continental Army. Solomon said he wanted nothing for
himself, but he would like something for his people. The Star of David
was the result. Few people know it was Solomon who saved the Army
through his financial contributions ... then died a pauper. Haym Solomon
gave $25 million to save the Continental Army, money that was sorely
needed to help realize America's and our freedom and independence from
England.
Therein lies America's Judeo-Christian beginning. Most
American children do NOT know any of this. They aren't taught because
their history teachers do NOT know this. (They were not taught!)
On
America's Freedom: Too many veterans gave up too much to let the
meaning fade. Many veterans came home to an America that did not care.
Too many veterans never came home at all. They served, they died for you
and for me.
I hope you will share this information with many so
they can learn about the UNITED STATES DOLLAR BILL, and what it stands
for. America is at a critical juncture. When Trump leaves office, the
"liars, criminals, gangsters, thieves, murderers, and God-haters"
will try to take over again. It is We the People who must demand
good government. Because of God's promise in 2 Chronicles 7:14, America
has been given a reprieve for her past sins. Donald Trump is not the "savior" of America. The
only way America will heal is for the majority of Americans to honor and obey Yahweh, the creator God and sustainer of the universe.
Let's do whatever we can to save her while never, ever forgetting: It is God in whom We Trust!
