# 4 Mazzaroth, Babbler and The Talker

"Hey Talker, are you hearing me ?" asks the Babbler. "I'm here", I reply. "Whats with this Mazzaroth material floating around in here", Babbler inquires. "Was doing some research, and up pops the word " Mazzaroth", I reply. "Whats that got to do with anything you do", Babbler shouts back. So I explain the why and what of it, this way:
Had learned a long time ago that certain books, programs, courses, and unusual words, that come into my awareness, are there for a reason.The word "Mazzaroth" caught me totally by surprise. So I followed up and saw that it would apply to an old and long standing question I've never acted upon before.
Things like the "wise men" mentioned in the bible, following a star to locate the messiah. All the references to the stars and fortune telling, astrology and so on. Had often questioned the beginning of astrology, and how it originated, things of that nature. So the word Mazzaroth, has opened a door, so to speak for further research into that aspect of the bible and astrology. I've shown the index of what is covered in the book and is posted on the site.
Have included a link to reach the site, if one is as interested, as I am.
