In Judaism, Tannin is sometimes conflated with the related sea monsters Leviathanand Rahab by Christians.[19][clarification needed] Along with Rahab, "Tannin" was a name applied to ancient Egypt after the Exodus to Canaan.[2] Could the depiction of the sea- monster in the Gasc family’s two ‘ Poussins’ be another veiled allusion to a wyvern/dragon?

www.nationalgallery.org.uk/artists/david-teniers-the-youngerDavid Teniers was the most famous 17th-century painter of peasant life. He enjoyed international popularity in his own lifetime and during the 18th century, especially in France. Teniers's success was marked by the acquisition of a country house in 1662 and by the grant in 1680 of a patent of nobility. His work was imitated by many followers, including his son, David Teniers III.You are correct, Ruby,I do believe that the St.Augustine was commissioned to hide the St.Anthony to hide the Voivre. To paint over a Teniers painting, one of the most famous and successful artists of his time, a person who would choose to do so, would have to have a very good reason for doing so.To hide the ‘Vouivre’ would be a very good reason. www.rennes-le-chateau-archive.com/ndm_autres_amenagements.phpThis site has a lot of information re. Notre Dame de Marceille in Limoux. The plan of the interior of the church shows the position of the painting relative to rest of the structure.

The word Tannin is used in the Hebrew Bible fourteen times. Aaron's staff becomes Tannin in the Book of Exodus (Exodus 7:9-12), it is used in the meaning "snake" in the Book of Deuteronomy (Deut 32:33) and Psalms (Psalm 91:13)The rod of Aaron has previously been shown to be able to be equated with The Virgin Mary. The rod of Aaron can also be equated with Tannin meaning a ‘ sea monster’, dragon, or ‘ serpent’. Since Wyvern -> Viper -> Vipera -> serpent, the rod of Aaron can also be equated with the Aaron. Since the rod of Aaron also can be equated with the Virgin Mary, it can be concluded again via this route that The Wyvern and The Virgin Mary can be equated with each other. Know this key is like the great serpent staff. If the phrase ‘ great serpent staff’ is interpreted as referring to ‘ the rod of Aaron’ this passage would support the idea that the Key refers to The Virgin Mary.

The raised hand of da Vinci points to the growth of the secret and the answerI have never been entirely happy with my previous explanation of this clue. I think the following, although ending up referring to the same thing - the wyvern - just feels better. The Raised -> reared(synonym) -> rear de -> arriere(F.) of -> stern(F.) of -> spiegel(D.) of -> mirror(D.) of Hand -> manus (L.) -> handwriting Points to the Growth -> tier(D.) -> beast(G.) Of the secret and the answer The mirror handwriting of Da Vinci points to the secret of the beast and of the answer.The mirror handwriting of Da Vinci can be interpreted as a reference to the Jabberwocky in Alice Through The Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll, since the Jabberwocky appears in a “ Looking Glass book” in which the words are printed in mirror writing like Da Vinci’s handwriting. www.google.co.uk/search?q=Jabberwocky+mirror+writing&client=safari&sca_esv=31e7785c1264b268&channel=ipad_bm&tbm=isch&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjzuf6vwbyFAxW7UEEAHVKdBe8Q_AUIBigB&biw=768&bih=922#imgrc=CyXW2UJWR3XZ3Mwww.google.co.uk/search?q=Jabberwocky+mirror+writing&client=safari&sca_esv=31e7785c1264b268&channel=ipad_bm&tbm=isch&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjzuf6vwbyFAxW7UEEAHVKdBe8Q_AUIBigB&biw=768&bih=922#imgrc=jr7o7fW7cGfijMen.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sockburn_WormIn the folklore of Northumbria, the Sockburn Worm was a ferocious wyvern that laid waste to the village of Sockburn in Durham. It was said that the beast was finally slain by John Conyers. The tale is said by many to be the inspiration for Lewis Carroll's poem Jabberwocky which he wrote while in Croft-on-Tees and Whitburn.[1]The image of the Jabberwocky in John Tenniel’s famous illustration, depicts the creature as a creature akin to a Wyvern, which was said to be the inspiration for the creature in “ Alice through the Looking Glass”. It can be concluded therefore that the ‘ secret of the beast’ ’ is ‘ Wyvern’ and that ‘ the answer’ is also the beast - Wyvern. Discover the word and write without a pen to answer without a letterWord -> God -> 7 15 4 -> 1745 -> Wyvern -> the Beast -> 666 -> Duncan Jolyon Burden( 6 letters in each part of his name) This interpretation of this clue suggests that to submit an entry one needs to write to Duncan ‘ without a letter’. If ‘ letter’ is interpreted as referring to a message written on a piece of paper, ‘ without a letter’ could be interpreted as as meaning an e-mail. I liked this explanation as the beast Wyvern also generated the answer to the question of how to submit an entry. The number 1745 however can also be correlated with ‘ Begone! I hold the secrets of God - Maranatha ( translation of I Tego Arcana Dei)) which has an English Gematria value of 1485 which is an anagram of 1458 which can be correlated with 1457 by colel and thus with 1745 the English gematria value of ‘Wyvern’ The ‘ I Tego Arcana Dei’ - Maranatha’ book was Green in color. Green is said to be the color of a Vouivre/Wyvern. ‘ ‘Without a letter’ could also mean to write a book. If the word is ‘ God’ , which can be equated with the number 1745, this links up with the title of the green book ‘ Begone! I hold the secrets of God’ - Maranatha’. This title could then be interpreted as ‘ Begone! I hold the secrets of Wyvern”. This seems to be consistent with exactly what the puzzle reveals - the secrets of the Wyvern. Since the competition is said to be over, I have taken the clue to mean to write a book.

www.rennes-le-chateau-archive. The subject of the St.Antoine painting at Notre Dame de Marceille, like virtually everything to do with RLC, is full of contradictions. Since I first became aware of the painting many years ago, there appears to have been a lot of argument on the other side of the Channel about what was painted, who painted what, and when. www.reinedumidi.com/ndm/tentations%205.htmOne of the latest developments appears to be the finding of the article in the short lived newspaper “ Panurge” shown in the above link. In this article the painting is claimed to be by Mathieu Fredeau and to have represented St.Antoine being tempted by Satan in the form of a beautiful woman. It further goes on to say that Abbe Gasc, offended by the woman, painted over her and in it’s place painted the cartoonish winged demon seen in the Reynie et Certain engraving of the interior of the Church( seen in the image at beginning of the link).The inference here seems to be that the original painting of St.Antoine being tempted was by Mathieu Fredeau, and that Teniers was not involved anywhere in the production of the painting , and neither was the painting ever changed into a St.Augustine! On the basis of all this contradictory information about the painting, as regards the question of where the truth lies, I am not quite sure. What is apparent to me however is that the likeness of the figure of St.Anthony is identical with the likeness of St.Anthony in other versions of St.Anthony being tempted by David Teniers the younger. On this basis alone it would not be unreasonable to refer to the painting as a Teniers. www.reinedumidi.com/rlc/basilics.htmWhat is also apparent to me is that the ghostly image of the Vouivre/ basilisk type figure showing through the ‘ dark murk’ above the shoulder of St.Antoine would have been present at the time of Antoine Bigou, as it is too well painted to have been painted by Henri Gasc who only seems capable of the childlike flying demon creature seen in the Reynie Et Certain engraving. The creature also seems to be showing through a layer/ layers of paint/ bitumen that has been applied at a later date.It can be concluded therefore that this creature was painted either by Mathieu Fredeau or perhaps by David Teniers the Younger. Either way it would have been visible at the time of Antoine Bigou. The only question then which remains unanswered, is what does ‘ pas de tentation’ mean? www.rennes-le-chateau-archive.com/ndm_saint_antoine.phpThe simple answer is that it means ‘ no temptation’. On reflection,the argument that the painting was changed from a Temptation of St.Anthony into a St.Augustine is unconvincing to me. The original painting, whether it be by Teniers, Mathieu Fredeau or some other follower of Teniers, is of very high quality, and to paint over such a high quality painting is virtually inconceivable to me. Also the arguments regarding the flaming heart, smoke and crozier are also unconvincing as they are based on comparisons to an engraving done of the painting from a great distance, at an acute angle to the painting, and after the modifications of Gasc. ‘Pas de tentation’ therefore seems unlikely to refer to a Temptation of St.Anthony changed into a St.Augustine. There is however another possible meaning of ‘ Pas de tentation’. If it is taken to mean ‘ No temptation’ this has always struck me as a very vague statement. It can be interpreted in many different ways. My discomfort with this meaning has lead me to look at the phrase from a different angle. Pas -> sap( anagram. ) -> succus(L.) -> vigour(L.) ->vigor(L.) -> Virgo -> a girl(L.) de -> of Tentation-> temptation Using the above ‘ pas de tentation’ can be understood as ‘ temptation of a girl’. ‘Temptation of a girl’ is what the ‘Panurge’ article apparently says was represented in the Mathieu Fredau painting! Using this argument it can be interpreted that ‘Pas de tentation’ refers to the state of the Temptation of St.Anthony painting at the time of Antoine Bigou, St.Anthony being tempted by a girl( and other monsters) , before Abbe Gasc carried out his mutilation of the painting. Since the winged creature above the shoulder of St.Antoine is likely to have been present in the Fredeau/Teniers original painting, it would have been visible at the time of Antoine Bigou and so the phrase ‘ pas de tentation’ can be understood as an instruction to find the Voivre/ winged monster in the Temptation of St.Antoine painting at Notre Dame de Marceille.

Four scenes hold the tempted view of the ShepherdsFour scenes ->scenes on p. 7,8,9,10 of LRB -> budding staff -> rod of Aaron -> The Virgin Mary -> La Vierge -> The Virgin -> Virgo -> A girl -> The Temptation of St.Anthony Hold The tempted view -> Painting of St. Antoine with the girl as temptation Of the Shepherds -> of the pastor(L.) s -> of the Pasteur(F.) s-> of the priest s The Temptation of St.Anthony holds the tempted view of the priest.This clue can be interpreted as referring to the painting of St.Antoine with the girl as a temptation as described in the ‘Panurge’ article. www.rennes-le-chateau-archive.com/ndm_autres_amenagements.phpThe pulpit( chaire) at Notre Dame de Marceille was opposite the painting of The Temptation of St.Antoine - the tempted view of a girl - ( see floor plan in above link) so this painting would have been in the direct line of view of a priest preaching from the pulpit. . Since Virgo = La Vierge = The Virgin Mary, the Teniers ‘Temptation of St.Anthony can be said to hold the Key - The Virgin Mary.

“ Look to the armoured King of Terrors ....”en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ouroboros_1.jpgAn etching of a wyvern eating its own tail
“ Armoured” COULD refer to the scales of the Wyvern, ( like those depicted in the etching of a Wyvern depicted above) which act like real armour. This COULD explain why the figure of ‘ The King of Terrors’ on p.10 of the LRB is depicted dressed in armour.

www.biblestudytools.com/lexicons/greek/nas/lenos.htmlLenos - tub, vatI have previously indicated that the ' naked lady in a tub' is one of the ways by which the correct location of the tomb can be recognised. ' A naked lady in a tub' in the context of thinking about alchemy, immediately conjures up the idea of the ' bain - Marie' named after one of the first alchemists Maria the Jewess/Prophetess, since a bain-Marie is a water- bath. This link suggests that the naked lady in a water bath can be equated with Maria or The Virgin Mary. In ancient Greek a tub, or wine-vat can be translated as ' lenos'. The naked lady in a bath tub -> The Virgin Mary in lenos-> The virgin Mary in le son- The Virgin Mary in the (Fr.) son -> The son in The Virgin Mary Exactly the same idea has previously been shown to be a correlate of the phrase ' Et In Arcadia Ego’ - Also in the Virgin Mary I(Jesus,her son) The naked lady in a tub therefore can be understood as indicating the location of the tomb of Jesus and The Virgin Mary since Jesus in the Virgin Mary indicates two people.

The Curse of Oak Island Season 11
The Team welcomed researcher John Edwards into the War Room, who presented them with his theory that the Ark of the Covenant is buried on the island. [...] The Team find three possible locations where the Ark of the Covenant may be buried, and they’ve already started digging. [...] The Team uncovers a brand new stone feature at the exact spot where an expert told them to dig for the Ark of the Covenant. The Team arrives in Italy and the Netherlands this week to research the route the Templar Knights may have taken while transporting treasure from the Holy Land to Oak Island. [...] The Team examines underground tunnels in the Netherlands for Templar clues. [...] The Team has found evidence that the ship thought to be buried in the Swamp is a Viking ship and that the Vikings helped the Templar Knights bring treasure to the island.
In the final episode for Season 11, back on the island, the Team spray-paints a location for drilling with a massive letter X, and Mr. Lagina said, "That’s the spot, man; I can feel it." That actually happened.
As you state that the Ark of the Covenant can be equated with the Virgin Mary, is the body of the Virgin Mary not then buried on Oak Island?

The etymology of the word OAK is that it comes from the Middle English word spelt AKE and OKE, which in terms of the spelling look as if they could be mis-read as 'A KEY' and 'O KEY'. O-A-K? Or O-A-KEY?
ISLAND. Read as a pun based on the pronunciation of the word, 'EYE-LAND', a reference to the obverse of the Great Seal of the United States.
