Atomic Number of
Radon (Rn) = 86 (86 protons & 86 electrons); Atomic weight = 222. Radon is a noble gas that is colorless. Radon is a decay product of the radium salts used in the luminous paint of the numerals.

1: In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2: And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep.

In the 85th Psalm, the prophet longs for the communion of the sanctuary: 6. Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee? 7. Show us thy mercy, O Lord, and grant us thy salvation. 8. I will hear what God the Lord will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly. 9. Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land. 10. Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other. 11. Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven. 12. Yea, the Lord shall give that which is good; and our land shall yield her increase. 13. Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps. Psalms 85.6-13 (1048 BC), | ||||||

85th Book of Enoch describes the Second Dream-Vision of Enoch told to Methuselah:
1. And after this I saw another dream, and I will show the whole dream to thee, my son. 2. And Enoch lifted up (his voice) and spake to his son Methuselah: 'To thee, my son, will I speak: hear my words incline thine ear to the dream-vision of thy father. 3. Before I took thy mother Edna, I saw in a vision on my bed, and behold a bull came forth from the earth, and that bull was white; and after it came forth a heifer, and along with this (latter) came forth two bulls, one of them black and the other red. 4. And that black bull gored the red one and pursued him over the earth, and thereupon I could no longer see that red bull. 5. But that black bull grew and that heifer went with him, and I saw that many oxen proceeded from him which resembled and followed him. 6. And that cow, that first one, went from the presence of that first bull in order to seek that red one, but found him not, and lamented with a great lamentation over him and sought him. 7. And I looked till that first bull came to her and quieted her, and from that time onward she cried no more. 8. And after that she bore another white bull, and after him she bore many bulls and black cows. 9. And I saw in my sleep that white bull likewise grow and become a great white bull, and from Him proceeded many white bulls, and they resembled him. And they began to beget many white bulls, which resembled them, one following the other, (even) many. Book of Enoch, LXXXV.1-9 (circa 105 B.C.-64 B.C.) translated by R. H.

Chapter 85 of
Pistis Sophia (circa 150 A.D.): It came to pass then, when Jesus had finished speaking these words unto his disciples, that Mary Magdalene started forward and said: "My Lord, be not wroth with me if I question thee, because we question thee concerning all with precision." And Jesus answered and said unto Mary: "Question concerning what thou desires to question, and I will reveal it unto thee in openness without similitude, and all concerning which thou questions, I will say unto thee with precision and certainty. I will perfect you in all power and all fulnesses, from the interior of the interiors to the exterior of the exteriors, from that Ineffable to the darkness of darknesses, so that ye shall be called 'the fulnesses perfected in all gnosis.' Now, therefore, Mary, question concerning what thou may question, and I will reveal it to thee with great joy and great exultation." Mary again questions Jesus. It came to pass then, when Mary had heard the Saviour say these words, that she rejoiced in exceedingly great joy and exulted, and said: "My Lord, will then the men of the world who have received the mysteries of the Light, be superior to the emanations of the Treasury in thy kingdom? For I have heard thee say: If I lead you into the region of those who have received the mysteries of the Light, then will the region of the emanations of the Light-land count for you as a speck of dust because of the great distance in which it is distant from it, and because of the great light in which it is,' that is the Light-land is the Treasury, the region of the emanations, will therefore then, my Lord, the men who have received the mysteries, be superior to the Light-land and superior to those emanations in the kingdom of the Light?"

In Chapter 85 of
The Aquarian Gospel, John, the harbinger, censures Herod for his wickedness. Herod sends him to prison in Machaerus. Jesus tells why God permitted the imprisonment of John. 3. The city of Tiberius, upon the shores of Galilee, was Herod's home. 8. The followers of John were warned to speak not of the trial and imprisonment of John. 10. They could not talk about this better life that Herod called the Heresy of John. 11. When it was known that John had been imprisoned by the tetrarch court, the friends of Jesus thought it best that he should not remain in Galilee. 12. But Jesus said, I have no need of fear; my time has not yet come; no man can stay me till my work is done. 13. And when they asked why God permitted Herod to imprison John, he said, 14. Behold yon stalk of grain to perfectness, it is of no more worth; it falls, becoming part of earth again from which it came. 15. John is a stalk of golden wheat; he brought unto maturity the richest grain of all the earth; his work is done. 16. If he had said another word it might have marred the symmetry of what is now a noble life. 17. And when my work is done the rulers will do unto me what they have done to John, and more. 18. All these events are part of God's own plan. The innocent will suffer while the wicked are in power; but woe to them who cause the suffering of the innocents. The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ, Chapter 85 Transcribed from the Akashic Records by Levi H. Dowling DeVorss & Co., Santa Monica, CA, 1908, Reset 1964, p. 128 |
