Saul’s writings obscure though they are, do apparently make reference to the terrorists’ atrocities of our present world including the recent events of 9-11.
On wings of fire
a terror sweeps through
Faith of man is tested
as the city recoils in fear
This verse is remarkably more direct to the 9-11 attack than the garbled prophesy attributed to the famed seer Nostradamus which has over the years been misquoted to such an extent that it bears little resemblance to his original French text which states:
Volcanic fire from the center of the earth
will cause trembling around the new city:
Two great rocks will make war for a long time.
Then Arethusa will redden a new river.
It is interesting that Saul used the term terror to encapsulate the aftermath of the attack.
While inscribed some 2000 years ago, his description ‘On wings of fire’ has proven to be chillingly accurate to describe the airplanes that slammed into the World Trade Towers those months ago.
