Columbus solved the Jewish Question 500 years ago.
Few historical records of Christopher Columbus mention his motivations and intentions that led him to discovering the New World. But they tie in very closely with a promise of God to Adam recorded in one of the lost books of Eden.
According to that ancient writing, when Adam kept wanting back into the Garden of Eden, God explained He would fulfill a covenant with him “after” 5,500 years. He gave this as a promise. If we measure this period from the time of Adam, believed to be 4004 BC, it would extend to about the year 1496 AD.
Christopher Columbus was a devout student of the Holy Scriptures. By the early 1490's, he had apparently come to believe the time was drawing near for this same "redemption" of man by God. He thought if he went abroad he could find a great population of people (the real Jews, as this was at the time the phony Jews were being thrown out of Spain), whom he could show needed to go restore Jerusalem to Christianity. He felt a calling to be the man to go and tell them. So he persuaded Queen Isabella to finance his mission to do so, as he felt it was a mission ordained of God.
What he found instead, in 1492, is what many long believed would become the New Jerusalem of Revelation and Zechariah. His successful voyage soon inspired many other explorers. And it seems God's promise to Adam was officially fulfilled when John Cabot claimed the Northern American continent for England in 1497, the very first year “after” the 5,500. It would also become referred to as "The New World" because many Christians believed it to be the one Jesus spoke of.
One has to wonder if Christopher Columbus ever realized he seems to have helped fulfill the ordained mission of his time after all.
