| Well, simply to make it easier to navigate through the information (that and I want to be one of the cool kids) I moved this out of the thread about the last video because it was intermingling too much with the information concerning the hierogyphlics. |

And with the coming of the new thread, I've found that all three men ARE linked to Egypt.
http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa3612/is_199701/ai_n8746399/pg_5 (Baudelaire)
Rambam was the head of the Jewish Egyptian Community.
Abenerza spent some portion of his life in Egypt. I'm looking into it further to find a deeper link |

| ok...so, I know Baudelaire quite well, he's my all time favorite poet. I don't see how in any way Baudelaire is related to Egypt. Him mentioning Egypt in one of his poems is not surprising. In the 19th french century, Egypt was like really hype and all artists referred to it one way or an other. But really, other than parisian fashion, there is nothing linking Baudelaire to Egypt. I'll dig a little more into the reference to Baudelaire in OpAphid's video though... |

| I'm wondering if the reason Baudelaire had a question mark next to his name due to the fact that he never actually went to Egypt. Or perhaps I'm trying too hard to link all this TO egypt and it's something else. |

| "Everything is in the hands of Heaven, except the fear of Heaven." (Berachos 33b) Ultimately, everything is in God’s hand…except our decision to either fear (and serve) Him, or not. [Note: The exception alluded to above is discussed by Rambam. He explains that in the case of extremely wicked individuals, like Pharaoh, the ultimate punishment from God may be the removal of their ability to repent after a certain point.] |

Video description was updated:
Perhaps Rambam and Abenezra were right...
...but what if Baudelaire was correct instead? |

| The above quote about choosing seems to fit in well with what Opaphid is saying. |
