In this episode, the scroll opens wide as Ruben B. follows the forgotten footpaths of empire, prophecy, and identity — revealing how ancient nations were woven together long before European history claimed the story.

From Malta to Turkey, from Polynesian sailors to Roman governors, from Hebrew apostles to Trojan princes, Episode 7 uncovers a world far more connected — and far more spiritual — than we were ever taught.

Before Paul ever shipwrecked on Malta, the island was already a trading hub shaped by Polynesian craftsmen, Semitic navigators, and ancient Hebrew merchants. Their cedar ships and early alphabets influenced Greek and Latin cultures for centuries. By the time Paul arrived, Malta had already been touched by Israel, Africa, and the nations of the sea.

Ruben shows how Malta became a crossroads:
Polynesian | Hebrew | Roman
A meeting place of languages, alphabets, and spiritual destinies.

Then the journey widens into Turkey — the ancient land where East meets West. From Troy to Ephesus, from Galatia to Pergamon, the region was once the philosophical and spiritual gateway of the Greco-Roman world. The seven churches of Revelation? All in Turkey. Paul’s missionary journeys? Mostly through Turkey. Greek and Roman identity? Born on Turkish soil. And religious movements? Launched from its coastlines.

This episode reveals why Turkey became the launching point for the gospel, the site of the Council of Nicaea, and the bridge that carried Hebrew truth into the Gentile world.

But the story does not end there.

Ruben brings us into Rome — into the Colosseum itself — exposing who really paid for its stones, who really designed its engineering, and who really built its walls. Spoils from the destroyed Temple of Yahweh funded the arena. Enslaved Hebrews and Africans laid the stones. And Rome’s “genius” was built on the minds and hands of conquered people whose sacred sciences they appropriated.

From Polynesia to Malta, from Turkey to Rome, this episode uncovers a single truth:

The ancient world was connected by breath, blood, trade, prophecy, and destiny — and the stones still remember.

This is where modern voices rise to restore what empire tried to erase.

This is where ancient wisdom meets modern power.
