The Paraíba Stone Inscription is a script of Phoenician text dated to approximately the sixth century BCE that was found in 
Paraita, the easternmost state of Brazil. The text tells of the Phoenician Masonic “Merchant King” and “King Hiram” who is called Tyrian King Hiram III (r. 554-533 BCE) in the text.
The Paraíba Inscription also mentions the “Sidonian Canaanites”, who are also known as the Phoenicians, who set sail around Africa and ended up on the shores of Brazil during the nineteenth year of the reign of King Hiram, some 500 years BC. The stone was said to be found in 1872 by slaves on the plantation of a man named Joaquim Alves da Costa.
Here is the complete Paraiba Stone translation:
“We are children of Canaan from Sidon of the Eastern Kingdom of Merchants and are cast, I pray, here beside a central land of mountains (with this) offered choice gift to the Most High Gods and Goddesses in year 19 of King Hiram, I pray (still) strong, from the valley of Ezion-geber of the Red Sea.
Thereby (we) journeyed with 10 ships and we were at sea together assuredly two years around the land of Ham. We were separated by the hand of Baal and no longer remained among our companions, I pray, we have come here, 12 men and 3 women at this new land. Devoted, I make, even whom men of wealth bow the knee, a pledge to the Most High Gods and Goddesses (with) sure hope.”
The Phoenicians sailing to the Americas to places such as Brazil and colonizing the area is by no means a new idea and it has been written about by many experts over the last few hundred years. In the Rio de Janeiro National Museum there are said to be tombstones with Phoenician, Syriac and Sanskrit inscriptions that were found in the Brazilian countryside. (more…)

At the time of the Masonic King Hiram and Phoenician rule of the Holy Island of Crete, it was one of the few places in the world that 
had plenty of skilled Masons, wood and metal workers to complete the job. Please keep in mind that these masons are real people who were well documented by many historians.
For example, in the legend of Hiram, he is said to be a cunning man. In 2 Chronicles ii., 13, ‘And I have sent a cunning man (endued with understanding) of Hiram my fathers. In the Hebrew text, the word rendered ‘ my father’s’ is in English letters ‘ Abi.’ (The Hebrew word ‘Ab’ signifies ‘father,’ ‘Abi,’ my father, and ‘Abiv,’ his father.)
You will also find in ancient Crete a family of builders who had descended from one of the first documented builder masons who specialized in wood, Daedalus. He is one of the most famous artists and builders of Crete who were the forerunners to the Grecian building communities, and Roman collegia. The very same ancient guilds which modern Freemasonry descends. (more…)

Saul, according to the Hebrew Bible, was the first king of the combined Kingdoms of Israel and Judah. His reign is traditionally placed at approximately in the 10-11 century BCE, which marked a transition from a tribal society to statehood.
It is important to point out that Saul is a descendant of the Tribe of Judah and rightful heir but that he is listed as the first king of two combined Kingdoms being that of “Israel and Judah.”
The Hebrew Bible likewise connects prophets with kings of Judah and Israel from the first (Saul) to the last (Zedekiah).
In this article, I would like to share with you my research showing that King Saul can be connected to many other names in history from around the same time like in the Bible to an important prophet named Obed or Obediah and in ancient Hebrew (Phonecian) history as King Abibalus of Bediah and Bedan and in Masonic lore has Hiram Abiff.
Most scholars and researchers might easily be deceived into thinking that two, three and even four or more different persons were intended to be documented by the ancient authorities when passing down this history.
However, I have found that these names have been changed from the true birthname to a given surname or royal title and to add to the confusion, a biblical name and or narrative that comes down to us by the Church Doctors who were charged with doctoring the original writings in order to conceal the truth from the profane ie: uninitiated.
Last but not least, we now have 2,000 plus years of different authors writing in several different languages spanning hundreds of years to the point we are at today where making sense of the Babylonian chaos seems like an impossible task.
However, as I have proved in previous articles such as King Hiram’s Son: Ithobaal, Abibalus: King Hiram’s Father is the Widow’s Son and The Widow’s Son, it will be observed that these different names (surnames, biblical names, etc.) are of the same or similar signification, and they can be connected to one another in which initiated readers who have done their true Gnostic work could make no mistake at the various connections.
IS KING SAUL’S REAL NAME KING ABIBALUS OR BIBLICALLY AS OBED OR OBEDIAH?
Before I go in-depth into this research in future articles, I would first like to point out the many striking similarities between all these people whether it be King Saul, Obed, Obediah and or King Abilalus who I believe can be proved to be all the same persona rendered “otherwise called,” accurately enough.
For example, here are some significant biblical and historical synchronicities that simply cannot be ignored;
ALL THESE KINGS HAD SONS NAMED ITHOBAAL WHO WAS MURDERED
King Saul named his fourth son Ithobaal (Ἰθόβαλος; Hebrew Ethbaal, Ishba’al, Latin – Ithóbalos, Εἰθώβαλος; Eithṓbalos – meaning with Baal).
King Hiram had a son named Ithobaal (Ἰθόβαλος; Hebrew Ethbaal, Ishba’al, Latin – Ithóbalos, Εἰθώβαλος; Eithṓbalos – meaning with Baal)
King Abibalus had a son named Ithobaal (Ἰθόβαλος; Hebrew Ethbaal, Ishba’al, Latin – Ithóbalos, Εἰθώβαλος; Eithṓbalos – meaning with Baal).
THEY WERE ALL FIRST KINGS OF VERY IMPORTANT KINGDOMS
Saul was the first king of the United Kingdoms of Israel and Judah
King Abibalus was the first king of Tyre (Byblos)
An Obediah is listed as a son of Jonathan, who is the son of Saul.
Obediah was a royal official and or prince of his family.
THEY ALL HAVE STRONG TRIBE OF JUDAH CONNECTIONS
King Saul was from the Tribe of Judah
Obediah is listed in the genealogy of the tribe of Judah and as the grandfather of David (1 Chronicles 3:21) (B.C. 470.)
An Obadiah was sent out by King Jehoshaphat of Judah to teach the law in the cities
Obadiah is a book of the Old Testament about the conquest of Jerusalem in 586 BC during the reign of King Zedekiah, the last King of Judah.
The last verses of the book of Obadiah reveal that Judah will be saved and the kingdom shall be the Lord’s.
King Abibalus’ (Hiram Abiff – Father Hiram) coffin has lions decorating the exterior indicating his possible tribal affiliation to Judah.
THEY WERE IN CHARGE OF OR GOVERNORS OF PALACE/TEMPLES AND RELIGION FOR THE KING
Hiram was in charge of building projects for King Solomon.
Obadiah, who was in charge of the palace. lit.(‘al-habbayith [tH5921/1004, ZH6584/1074]) An officer of high rank in the court of Ahab, who is described as “Obadiah who was over the house”(1Ki 18:3).
SERVANTS TO THE KING
King Saul sent three different groups of servants who prophesied to King David.
Now there was a servant of Saul’s household named Ziba.https://biblehub.com/hebrew/strongs_6717.htm
They summoned him to appear before David, and the king said to him, “Are you Ziba?” “At your service,” he replied. (2 Samuel 9:2 )
King David calls himself Saul’s servant three times in the bible. (l7:32, 34, 36)
King David says “I am the son of your servant Jessee of Bethlehem.”
Hiram was a servant to King Solomon whom he gave supplies and Masons.
Obed means servant and Obediah means servant of God.
TYRE CONNECTIONS
At the end of the reign of King Saul, King Abibaal had arisen in Tyre.
His son Hiram came to rule at the time when King David was engaged in bringing the whole of Israel into subjection.
During the reigns of David and Solomon, Israel had a warm relationship with the people of Tyre (1 Kings 5: Iff.).
ALL OF THEM REIGNED OR LIVED IN OR AROUND THE 10TH CENTURY BC
King Saul reigned approximately in the 10th century BC.
King Abibalus or Abi-Baal reigned approximately in the 10th century BC about the end of the right of King Saul and the same time that David was the king by the tribe of Judah.
40 YEARS
Like King Saul and King David, King Solomon reigned for 40 years.
PRIESTS AND PROPHETS OF BAAL
Abibalus was a priest of Baal.
Obediah was a priest of Baal and hid one hundred of the Lord’s prophets in caves and gave them supplies.
In “The Babylonians (Against the Greeks, 1.21)” Josephus said Nebuchadnezzar besieged Tyre for thirteen years in the days of Ithobaal [III], their king; after him reigned Baal [II], ten years; after him were judges appointed, who judged the people.
CONCLUSION
It is obvious that from these various synchronicities and what appear to be surnames and birth name changes that Saul who is called the first King of the United Kingdoms of Judah and Israel can also be connected to the first King of Tyre (Byblos or Giblim) whose name was Abibalus who I have tied to Hiram Abiff that then connects us to Obed or Obediah of whom both are famously known as “The Widow’s Son.”

(By 33rd Degree Freemason, Manly P. Hall) – When the mob governs, man is ruled by ignorance; when the church governs, he is ruled by superstition; 
and when the state governs, he is ruled by fear. Before men can live together in harmony and understanding, ignorance must be transmuted into wisdom, superstition into an illumined faith, and fear into love.
Despite statements to the contrary, Masonry is a religion seeking to unite God and man by elevating its initiates to that level of consciousness whereon they can behold with clarified vision the workings of the Great Architect of the Universe.
From age to age the vision of a perfect civilization is preserved as the ideal for mankind. In the midst of that civilization shall stand a mighty university wherein both the sacred and secular sciences concerning the mysteries of life will be freely taught to all who will assume the philosophic life.

“The Amen, the true and faithful witness,” Rev. i. 14.
Amon (Ammon, Amun or Amen) is “The Hidden One” who is “King of the Gods,” and the “Lord of the Thrones” of the visible and the invisible worlds. The “Creator God” who was the mysterious soul of the universe which reveals itself in light. Amon is the light, creator, builder and grand architect of the house and temple. Amon is the Hi-Ram, and those of you that are familiar with Freemasonic allegories and history, can relate Amon to the Hiram Abiff of Solomon’s Temple.
“The Hidden One” who is “King of the Gods” and the “Lord of the Thrones” is not some God you will find outside of yourself in the heavens or carved onto an idolatrous stone by the grand architect of the Universe. Nor will you find this Grand Master inside of a Freemasonic lodge. Au contraire Solomon! This God is hidden deep within you and you must Know Thyself in order to find the mysterious Creator God who is the hidden one, King of Gods and the Lord of “Your” Throne.
The throne where King Amon is located is in Ammon’s Horn or the hippocampus situated in your house, or what is more commonly called the head.
