Isaiah 13:10
(10) For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.

Notice that while describing the “coming” of Jesus, Isaiah sees that the “constellations” are also affected by this coming. What does this Hebrew word “kesiyl” translated “constellations” mean? Strong’s Hebrew Definitions describes it as follows:

kesîyl
The same as H3684; any notable constellation; specifically Orion (as if a burly one): - constellation, Orion.

Brown Driver Briggs, a Hebrew Lexicon, describes it like this:

BDB Definition:

1) constellation, Orion
1a) Orion, the constellation
1b) constellation (general)
Part of Speech: noun masculine

It looks like the primary definition of this word is “Orion.” Brown places this as the number one definition (1 and 1a), while Strong’s says that this is the “specific” meaning of this Hebrew word. When the Septuagint (LXX) translates this verse into the Greek language, it translated kesiyl as literally “Orion.” While Isaiah does not specifically say that the Lord will come “through” the constellation of Orion, he certiantly mentions it within the “context” of his “coming.

Wow! That was some EXCELLENT observation, Scripture and references for Orion!

Many people argue the Bible is not to be taken literally but the writers certainly reference a physical location in space.

Do you believe we will see an "army" from the direction of Orion. I vaguely remember an Isaiah scripture that says God's army is coming from a far away planet or Heavenly place.

The Bible should always be read in context and when you come across scripture that seems to contradict what the Prophet/Apostle is saying than take all verses in that topic and dissect it. For instance many scholars and scoffers are on the fence about Paul, but when you break down Paul's writings it is in accordance to scripture. As far as the "army you speak of", I'm assuming the second coming of Christ which the skies will be filled with millions of angels. The Orion system seems very plausible for His return but again nobody can be 100% correct on this but I know people's hearts will fail them because they were not in Christ at this moment.

On a lighter note I have always imagined when Jesus returns with His army. This is the song that He will sing with the Angels singing the background.


 Quoting: M.E.


His coming will be loud and visible, and righteous. He wishes none would perish it will be as trumpets sound in battle. Many will hide from His appearance in rocks and caves and will beg for sudden death but it won't happen. I can assure you and I know your video was rhetorical but judgement for mankind will not take on any earthly form of music.
