38:27 brotheeeers!!! The word for star there is masculine not feminine!!
I can see what confused you ; I'd make the same mistake: the word is "αστερα" οr "astEra" (E as in "erebus" for pronunciation). A lot of Greek words ending in -α are feminine but not so for this one (and many others). Here it is a masculine word, and I actually don't think there is a feminine for "star"…
I'm Greek so I think the above point is legit 😛 there is a reason why Greek is the 2nd hardest language to learn after Chinese ; you can learn to communicate and speak but if you dare go a bit deeper in grammar you will face the completeness of the iceberg 😛
You can see for yourself here:

Look at the boxes and find the word "αστερα". That row corresponds to the English sentence "the star" and I know revelation says "a star" but then look at the word "πεπτωκότα" (pemptokOta) meaning "having fallen" as you rightly pointed out ; THAT is also masculine! Thus the combination of these words in that given form and order make it certain that the word for star right there is masculine ; not feminine, not neuter.
It's more or less the same concept as in Genesis 1:1 "…בראשית ברא אלהים" (Br-asheet b-ra Elohim…) the form and order of the words B-ra and Elohim make it clear "Elohim" is singular due to the form of B-ra, even if the word Elohim is plural. (It is a hint for the Holy Trinity btw).
I always enjoy the spirit of your disclaimers such as today's quest rather than corner on truth… and not to believe you but to check it out ourselves. It's not thus saith God, but rather, thus thinketh Rob. 😉 With this approach as well as your admission of actually changing your own position after further research, I have a great respect for you and your views. I perceive you to be a very sincere and dedicated searcher of truth, and I enjoy listening to your view on the various topics you discuss.
The whole reason George "Dubya" Bush sent troops to find weapons of "mass destruction" was really a cover to try to retrieve DNA of Nimrod/Osiris. He was successful too, I believe. They got his head that was in a jar. We gotta stay focused on Yeshua cause it's just a matter of time before they bring that Osiris/Nimrod DNA to it's culmination and then we all in trouble if we aren't where we're supposed to be in our faith and walk with Father
Spot on, Mr Skiba! Mr Hamp is in way over his head in this debate!
A lot of confusion here on both sides. A few points of clarification. Apollyon/Abaddon is a separate entity. It is neither Satan nor the AntiChrist. It has a specific function to fulfill at the end of times which it completes. End of Story. Full Stop. As to Apollo, he is the God of Prophecy and the Arts but never the God of destruction. Rob is confusing Apollo with Ares.
