Correction: THE DECLARATION OF ARBROATH re-established Scotland's already long-standing Celtic-Christian tenets of freedom of the sovereign individual, and consequent independence of the nation (which at that time included Northumberland), from the time of Cáin Adomnáin 697A.AD.
Something to consider:
The stolen Stone of Scone was recovered from Westminster Abby on Christmas Day 1950 ! On the Dead Sea Scroll's solar calendar, after the Vernal Equinox starting the next Biblical Year, it was placed on the altar in the ruins of Arbroath Abbey on the 11th April 1951.
With a 21st March Vernal Equinox that year, this means that the Stone of Scone was placed on the
altar of Arbroath Abby on the last seventh day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread: a Holy High Day !
So in the same BIBLICAL year:
• 1951 was 3400 years and the 68th Jubilee after the Exodus from Egypt ! (Working with a 4BC birth of Christ)
• Before the next Vernal Equinox King George VI died on the 6th of February 1951.
• Queen Elizabeth II immediately ascended the throne - although only later coronated.
i.e. The Stone of Scone was recovered in the Jubilee 7x7 49th year of 1950, and later placed on the High Altar of Arbroath Abby on the seventh day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread - in the Jubilee 50th year of 1951 !
The Declaration of Scottish Independence drafted at Arbroath Abby and dated the 6th April 1320, was also in the midst of the Feast of Unleavened Bread:
The vernal equinox was the 20th March that year and the 7th April was the 4th day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread that year: the day of Christ’s resurrection on the Biblical annual calendar.
So 631 years later (6+3+1=10), on the last 7th Day of Unleavened Bread, being a High Day, the Stone of Scone was placed on the High Alter in the ruins of that very same Arbroath Abby, wrapped in the “Saltire” or “Saint Andrews Cross” - the national flag of Scotland.
Saint Andrew was the brother of Peter, and also an apostle and disciple of Christ.
In the 1320 “Declaration of Arbroath” the Scott’s claimed to be Israelites who migrated from Egypt to Spain to Ireland and then to Scotland !
Legend has it that the Stone of Scone would sometimes groan when a king was crowned on it. It is now apparent that the Stone of Scone had a flaw in it. It had a faint fracture that could be the cause of the noise when some weightier kings were crowned sitting on it: the fracture gradually progressed further and further under the weight and hence the “groans”.
When it was removed from beneath the coronation throne in Westminster Abby on Christmas Day 1950, it finally broke into two pieces in the process.
The smaller piece was secretly returned to Scotland almost immediately and the larger piece was returned sometime later.
Once re-assembled and re-enforced into the semblance of one stone, it was placed on the alter as described above.
When it was later back in Westminster Abby, Queen Elisabeth II was coronated on a broken Stone of Scone - what is the significance and implication of that as we see history unfold ???..
Nice video - great work
Thank you♥️
Don't think for a minute the Queen's gonna give you independence @!
I do wish it for you tho
As long as there is one hundred Scots we are sovereign
What do you think America is? the 4th Signer of the Declaration of Arbroath was the War Master and Chief the Earl of Ross, who's descendant Col. George Ross was last to Sign the Declaration of Independence (by Date) his Niece made the Flag, as Ross' surrounded Washington and 12 out of 13 Governors at the Time of the Revolution were Scottish. Don't worry though if that makes you Sore, Major General Robert Ross later burnt down the White House for you, and sacked DC! I think personally because the US did not Pay Ross back, for it was a John Ross who gave up his personal treasury to his Cousins the French Crown to Fight the English Crown, to never be paid back, and starting the US 1st International Relationship! Not to be Confused with Betsy's Husband John Ross who died on a Prisonship who still to this day has Surviving letter between him and many a Founding Father! But lets not Forget George Washington's personal Land Lawyer Senator James Ross and all the other Ross' that were Instrumental in Setting Up this Great Nation! Under Ross... You know the National Anthem is when Major General Robert Ross sacked DC and the Fleet particualry the ships Erebus's Rockets Red Glare, Burst in the Air, and the US Flag 1st styled by Betsy Ross was still there. With the Ship Erebus later captained by Sir James Clark Ross when he discovered Antarctica! and the Ross Sea, and Ross Island where McMurdo Station is. One could write a Whole Novel of One Sentences for the Feats of Ross! And FYI, Clan Ross is the Gentry of the Great Clan Ross, which was Clan Arias (Anrias) in the time of the War Master and Chief, the 1st Earl of Ross Fearchar the Son of the Priest! And we can be traced all the way back to Egypt some 2000 years ago, some say why an Egyptian Billionaire owes the Castle the Current Cheif of Ross, Barron Ross of Ross (for short) is titled too. If you want, I bet he would be King for you! Those Kings our Ancestor who signed the Declaration were talking about, 113, were our Direct Ancestors, and Ross' often had a Claim to throne in with the other major contenders! He would Make a Fine King Mee Boi!
Sounds stilted
If you're going to speak Scots then speak Scots, not this garbled Scenglish where words you just can't quite manage to fully commit. It really jars on the ear and falls between two stools. I find it patronising. As George Michael the great English poet once said "If You're gonna do it do it right, yeah"
He's speaking with a Doric accent
I,m Scots, he is speaking Scots, in a sort of fake effected way
@@docribby He's switching between Doric and English and it fries my brain!
