THE MIRICLE DEVICE - SHAMIR
BY DR. MATEST M. AGREST
In many ancient texts a miracle device called the Shamir is mentioned. It was used in lapidary work to make seal engravings on very hard stones and for cutting large stones in quarries for use in building the Temples in Jerusalem where iron tools were forbidden to be used. The most ancient of such texts known to the author are the following: - A Treatise "Abot" of the Babylonian Talmud (the beginning of the first age AD). In Chapter 5 it is written: "Shamir" was created in the six days of the world creation."(It was unbelievable that such a miracle device . had been constructed by man). "The Mishnajot" treatise "Sotah" (the beginning of the second age AD). It is written in chapter 9 that "when the (second) Temple was destroyed the Shamir ceased". - In the "Sotah" 48b, of the Babylonian Talmud (3-5, age AD) it is written that Moses brought the Shamir from the desert to make the Ephod (breast plate) for the high priest Aaron according to the covenant: "Then take two lazulli stones and engrave on them the names of the sons of Israel". (Exodus 28.9). "On the two stones you shell make seal engravings - the work of a lapidary - of the names of the sons of Israel". (Exodus 28, 11). To fulfil these covenants was very complicated because it was forbidden to write and save the names of the Israeli sons in ink. It was written: "engrave on them..." At the same time it was forbidden to use any iron tools while making the Ephod. For this work Moses brought from the Desert a special device - Shamir. As it is written in the Babylonian Talmud "Sotah" 48 B: Firstly the names of the Israeli sons have been written on the Lazuli stones in ink on the stones were engraved (the work of lapidary was burned out).- In the treatise "Gitin", 68-69 of the Babylonian Talmud (3-5, ages AD) it is written that Solomon used the Shamir for building the (first) Temple. As stated in the Book 1 Kings, 6, 7: "And the house when it was in building was made of stones made ready at the quarry (there was neither hammer, nor ax, nor any tool of iron heard in the house while it was in the building)". Solomon said to the Rabbies: "How shall I manage without iron tools?" They replied. "There is the Shamir, which Moses brought for the stones of the Ephod...", and Solomon obtained it from Ashmedai, Prince of Demons. More the 30 years ago I realized that the Shamir had the same ability as that of contemporary laser, the discovery and construction of which was one of the distinguished achievements of science and engineering. Therefore, in some of my lectures, I appealed to scientists to investigate all historical sources about the Shamir. Let us investigate here the historical reality that the Ephod existed more than a thousand years from the time of Moses. Millions of Jews saw the two stones attached to the shoulder pieces of the Ephod worn by the high priests. To many of them it was known that the names of the 12 sons of Israel on the lazuli stones of the Ephod had been engraved by means of a miracle device, the Shamir. We further note the historical reality of the existence of the two Temples in Jerusalem and that they had been built without using any iron tools. Also by means of the miracle device, Shamir. These essential questions remained: Who constructed the Shamir? Where did Moses get the Shamir? Who invented the Shamir more than three thousand years ago? The first similar device, the laser, was constructed by T.H. Maiman in 1960 AD. The answer to all these questions may be - the extraterrestrial visitors to Earth". This means that in the time of Moses there was a paleocontact and Moses was given the device for generating laser rays along with instructions for its use. The Shamir was destroyed along with the destruction of the second Temple of Solomon

This article is based upon the author's pamphlet entitled "The Ancient Miricle Device Shamir", published and coopirighted in 1995, which will be the subject of Dr. Agrest's lecture at the 24th Anniversary World Conference of the Ancient Astronaut Society to be held at the Adam's Mark Hotel in Orlando, Florida, August 3-8, 1997
Dr. Agrest, a PHD in Science, Physics an Mathematics, is the author of over 100 scientific articles and 5 monographs on the subjects of of mathematics, physics and astronomy. In his Astronauts of Yore, published in the 1961, Dr. Agrest worked out his own his own hypothesis about a visit of exraterrestrials to Earth many years ago. Studying the first chapters of Genesis in the Bible an the corresponding pages of the Zohar, he concluded that modern translations of the word "nefilim" should be translated as the "fallen ones". Hense, instead of "Giants were on the Earth , were on the Earth in those days" the passage should be read as "Nefilim, fallen on the Earth, were on the Earth in those days." In 1992, after 22 years as Chief of the University Leningrad's Science Laboratory, Dr. Agrest retires and emigrated to the United States. He lives at 1635 Wallenberg Blvd., Apt. 201, Charleston, SC 29497 USA
