Ancient history tells a very interesting story about a mother and child which eventually becomes a major motif throughout most world cultures. The mother’s name is Semiramis and her child’s name was Tammuz. In this article, we will focus on the identity of the mother.
Who is Semiramis?
According to the historian Eusebius, Semiramis was the wife of Nimrod. In the Sumerian language, her name is “Sammur-amat.”
According to less trustworthy traditions, Semiramis was Noah’s granddaughter, and both the mother and wife of Nimrod.
Semiramis – The Mother and Wife of Nimrod
According to various legends, Semiramis became pregnant after engaging in an adulterous affair while married to Nimrod. Around this same time, Nimrod dies a violent and untimely death. In an effort to retain power and to hide her misdeeds, Semiramis makes a most audacious claim. She publicly declares that upon Nimrod’s death he had been resurrected as the god of the sun. As the sun-god, Nimrod used his sun rays to miraculously inseminate Semiramis with a child. This child was thus considered to be divinely conceived. The child’s name was Tammuz, which she claimed was the reincarnated Nimrod. (Thus, Semiramis was both Nimrod’s wife and mother.)
After the scattering that occurs at the Tower of Babel, this story of the miraculous conception of this child disseminated throughout the world and led to the rise of the various birth-death-rebirth cults that are littered through history. These mystery religions of future generations adopted different names for Semiramis and her child, Tammuz.
According to another tradition, Semiramis was the daughter of a goddess. She had mermaid-like features with the head of a woman and the body of a fish.
So exactly who is Semiramis?
Much speculation surrounds Semiramis throughout history. However, the image of a mother holding her child is pervasive throughout nearly every culture throughout history. This gives some credence to the import of Semiramis and her place in history.

THE SCRIPTURES NEVA MENTIONED SEMIRAMIS LET ALONE BEING D MOTHER AND,OR WIFE OF NIMROD. TAMMUZ WS ALSO NOT LISTED.WHY MIX D CROSS WT PAGANISM?WE OUGHT 2 B GUIDD ACCDNGLY.SO,LET US NOT MIX XTIANITY WT(BABYLNN/GREEK) PAGANISM AND MYTHOLOGY.
Eze Ugona, the Bible doesn’t mention cats either, that doesn’t mean they don’t exist!
The bible didn’t mention UFOs, so does that mean they exist also? Your logic is not consistent. It’s like saying an elephant has large ears then seeing a hare an saying it’s an elephant.
Obviously, you are mistaken. What do you think the chariot of fire was that took Elijah into the sky? The point is, if it can not be found in God’s Word, it either is not true, doesn’t matter, or both. Regardless, the Word of God is not an encyclopedia of the universe either, so believe what you want, but if it contradicts God’s Word, it is wrong. Historically this is always true whether you like it or not.
Scripture never said that Elijah even set foot in the chariot of fire but was taken up to heaven in a whirlwind. The chariot passed right between Elijah and Elisha and perhaps was an attempt to get Elisha’s attention away from his master Elijah and not receive the double portion of miracles as promised “If you see me go up”. Was this God who really wanted to know if Elisha had paid attention, or was this Satan who did not want Elisha to receive the double portion of miracle power from Elijah? Preachers have gotten this ascending to heaven in a chariot of fire WRONG because they refuse to believe the Bible and believe what it says. AllanThomas
Actually, the Bible does mention UFO’s
Sarah the Bible doesn’t mention ufo’s Ezekiel is often thought to be talking about a ufo if you read on and study the passage it’s talking about Gods throne and angles or cherubim surrounding God and eyes all around it. Not being a smart butt. I’m only trying to help give a better understanding of the passage. May the Lord bless you and keep you!
And the Bible does mention Tammuz in the book of Ezekiel 8:14. The women were weeping for him at the North Gate of the Lord’s house. God said it was a great abomination that they were weeping over Tammuz.
one thing i can say is ,that the truth is hard to accept espacially if it hits you…thats why people only believe that which suits them!
Where please put the scriptures…as your facts,dont just generalise!!
The Bible mentions the names of Nimrod and Tammuz, but nothing about Semiramis. We don’t have any detailed descriptions of these two characters. It’s better not to give more importance to Semiramis.
You see it through the eyes of what you’ve been indoctrinated to understand according to those who want to hide these truths from us. The understanding is similar to what a word means in legalese and plain English. There are two different meanings and they could both be under the same context. It just depends on who’s jurisdiction your coming from. Logic has no play in this. It is mind control and manipulation.
Well said because the enemy is always looking for way to confuse a person.One will be surprise of how many babies there are in Christ.And not understanding that most of the time there biggest enemy is themselves.
one thing i can say is ,that the truth is hard to accept espacially if it hits you…thats why people only believe that which suits them!

Read Ezekiel 1.
There is a book, by REV Alexander Hislop titled “The Two Babylons”. You should read it, because there is a LOT of good information in there.
That book has been discredited as Alexander hislop was proved to be a heritic.
Hislop’s book and all of his theories have been soundly refuted and quashed by translations of ancient cuneiform clay tablets that talk about Semiranis. The whole “Trinity” of Nimrod, Semiranis, and Tammuz we’re incorrect assumptions he made based on Greek historians. All of that Greek history has been completely overwritten by the older, Assyrian history written in the clay.
I bought into the Babylonian Trinity thing for a long time, but it’s silly supposition less than 200 years old.
YHVH showed Ezekiel the people and priests participating in semiramis (easter) & tammuz worship, even in his temple.
We’re told to “come out of babylon” from Genesis to Revelation.
You are correct to say we ought to come out of Babylon and we are warned throughout the Bible to do so.
Pagan worship was going on in the Temple as you say. However, Semiramus is not personally named. She may have existed. If she did, all we have on her is from traditions that are not Scriptural. The first historical reference to her is by Eusebius who speculated that she was Nimrod’s wife. The Bible says nothing of Nimrod’s wife.
Tammuz is mentioned but it’s the only time he is mentioned in the Bible [Exekiel 8:14] and all it gives is his name, which was that of a Phoenician idol.
Much of what we have is from non-biblical sources and is from tradition and speculation. Most of it may well be true. But, as the Bible does not go into those details, I think that must be for a good reason. There again, as Proverbs teaches, “It is to the glory of a king to search out a matter.” But we have to use wisdom.
Many people will miss heaven because they are foolishly scriptural/ biblical; many scientific discovery; archeological findings had shown that the source of scriptural document lies in classified MSS of the ancient; most Christians today live in the past when anything not found in the bible must not be taken to be true
She’s called the queen of heaven it all goes back to ba’al worship which was something that was done in Babylon
Semiramus his wife of and the son of Cush. When Cush found out what was going on Cush killed Nimrod. After his death Semiramus claim that Nimrod came back to life and was to be worshipped as the Sun god. But still later she said Tammuz was her husband, which she had many children. Since then not much has changed. Except today we have more sinful things happening throughout our world.
Hello check out kjv 1611 her name is mentioned her but other version her name is different ..l .queen of heaven
hello.. it is important to know this because it is whence the idol worship originated….Nimrod means we will rebel…Babel means confusion through mixture. I believe that Ashteroth and many other Baal and idol worship all over the bible have their origin from Tammuz and Semiramis…..
Its not confusion…
when we are taught this things…
Fact
Actually scripture does mention Semiramis, possibly many time. She is mentioned as the queen of heaven in Jeremiah 44:17-25. She is very possibly the same entity, that was worshiped as Ashtarte, and Ishtar (modern day Easter). Tammuz is mentioned by name in Ezekial 8:14. In fact, all idolatry has a link with Nimrod, his wife Semiramis and Tammuz. It is very likely they are the the same entities as Osiris, Isis and Horus. Remember that languages changed at the tower of Babel, that Nimrod, might have been the driving force behind. Josephus( a Jewish historian whose writings support scripture) goes into great detail about Nimrod, who set himself up as a solar deity, and may be the forerunner of all solar deities.
You are so right…people fail to read their bible and notice that semiramis is in the bible just that different region and mation have their name for her but Ashtoreth is her hebrew name the original bible language..lot was hidden for people not to get..
Not everything is in the Bible. We have to follow the clues and dig very well, there is the truth.
Obedience!
The Lord is at the door. Loo
Thank you finally someone who has actually studied!! People tend to believe anything anyone says anymore because they are too lazy to do the research themselves! The Lord said my people perish for lack of knowledge!
I’m going to agree with Michael Wall. The Queen of Heaven was a title given to one of the ancient pagans’ favorite sex and fertility goddesses to whom they prayed and made offerings but she since she was worshipped all over the ancient world throughout various periods of history, her names change according to the language spoken by her devotees. Semiramis, Ishtar, Astarte are just 3 of her names. Others are Astoreth, Aphrodite, Isis, GAIA, Diana and many more. In the Book of Acts we read about Paul and Silas nearly getting killed for teaching the pagan Ephesians the Gospel neat the Temple of Diana and winning many to Christ who then were ‘deserting Diana’. There’s a lot that could be said about this pagan religious cult but surfice it to say that it was ‘nature worship’… the worship of “Mother Earth/Mother Nature”
Thank you Michael Wall so much for those bible verses.
Ezekiel 8:14 mentions Tammuz. Also the Hebrew calendar…one of their months is Tammuz,as a reminder of their disobedience to God. It’s very interesting. Do some research on the subject. It’s deep stuff.
Yet Christianity WAS mixed with paganism-it’s called roman catholicism
Good for you!!! Therefore truth Christians should reject the infamous doctrine of the TRINITY created by the Roman Catholic Church. Matthew 28:19 doesn’t direct to a trinity, directs to a baptism and being born again in the Name of the Father (Saviour through Jesus ) of the Son (there is not other name to be saved just Jesus) of the Holy Spirit ( as the Father poured His Holy Spirit after the baptism on the Son and now Jesus having the experience being a human and be tempted in all senses, leaves His Spirit to comfort His people), then we are born again in Spirit and truth.
This is absolute truth. Baal worship clothed in enough Christianity to fool believers. This is taught in Western Civilization courses in colleges. It’s historical facts.
so you know you enemy; so you understand that this culture is no different- they worship the same pagan god. The Books of Jashur & Enoch were omitted – but why ? Greek mythology? I’m starting to think – these were not myths- but the result of nephilim. It works in the whole pattern – Our King Jahshuah is True- His mocker – well — mocks Him.
If you think the Bible doesn’t mention Semiramis and her son, Tammuz, or the worship of Nimrod (Noah’s great-grandson and Semiramis’s husband) as a Sun god, then you haven’t read Ezekiel 8: 13-16.
You can’t be serious!!!
If you celebrate ANY holiday that YHWH doesn’t say to recognize then You my friend ARE, HAVE BEEN & Probably Will continue to do Pagan rituals because you don’t know History.
Thats Biblical as well as proven World history.
Check the facts before Bro.
Incorrect ‘Ashtoroth’ is called queen of Heaven. Semiramis is Greek just in structure, both Semi & Ramos. Eusibus mistake is being a historian but thinking he is a linguist. In Akkadian there is no word Semiratt because you can’t take an icon based language and add a Greek prefix!
Read Ezekiel 8:14 you will find the people of Israel worshiping Tammuz
So if tammuz was born on the 25th when was Jesus Christ born cos it’s so confusing
I think the Bible mentioned Tammuz in Ezekiel 8:7-10
I full agree with you if the bible dont say it. Its not right… that story with Semiramis dont add up… even cain was still talk about in the bible… the bible only speaks facts.. have a bless day
Which scriptures are you reading? The KJV with only 66 books, was compiled in 1611, and dropped 17 books from its predecessor. This included the Books of Enoch, Jasher, and Jubilees. The Book of Enoch is referenced in Danel 7, and the title Son of Man originates from it as well, and Jude also reference material from it. The Book of Jashar (upright), is mentioned in Joshua 10 and 2 Samuel 1. Got to be careful of the scribes (false writers) and the pharisees (false teachers), read many different versions and compare and contrast them, and pray for guidance from the Rauch Hakodesh (Holy Spirit) for discernment.
The Bible mentions Tammuz being worshipped cried for by women in the church. It doesn’t mention Nimrod but it mentions the Sun being worshipped in from of the Church by people who turn their back to the Temple if God. Read Ezekiel 8:12-16.
The Bible mentions Nimrod in Genesis 10:8-12, and again briefly in 1 Chronicles 1:10 and Micah 5:6. The Genesis reference says Nimrod was “a mighty hunter before the Lord,” but since the first century has been interpreted to mean “a mighty hunter against the Lord.”
The Bible DOES however mention Tammuz.
True Christian Church (Born again believers) are guided by the everlating only God who is Omnipresent, Omniscient , and Omnipotent. He’s everywhere at once, has all knowledge (science), and is all power. His book – the bible – is unlike any book of man or spirit being for He is the creator of all in existence. All other demi gods and beings are His creations. Fallen angels (his watchers) can do no more than absorb God’s reality and twist it (lie) for they hate mankind’s destiny and will use their limited life to destroy them. These will soon perish, so that it is beneficial to call upon God and compare all other stories with the earliest Bibles. His truth always comes forth if your heart is for Him. He can’t be hidden from any of mankind.
And the Bible does mention Tammuz in the book of Ezekiel 8:14. The women were weeping for him at the North Gate of the Lord’s house. God said it was a great abomination that they were weeping over Tammuz.
I understand where you come from…the bible focus on the History of God and His Covenants from the beginning till now… doesn’t mean the world didn’t have a history… and for you to have deeper of understand it’s good to know world history… Jeremiah 10… if you read that without world history you won’t understand what Jeremiah talking about… as a student you know learned both world to really understand why God really hate certain things… Apostle Paul is great example of knowing what people believe in their time and used the Word to related to them… A true one who loves God’s Word should also see the World history (history that is not myth or legend) that’s make our Faith in the Word of God solid…
please before studying any other scriptures,make sure you have the requirements that God requires from us all and thats to repent and be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and ye shall recieve the gift of the holy Ghost…Acts 2:38…be born again(learning again how to walk,talk,hear and see)For God will reveal unto those who has the gift of the holy ghost(spiritual walk,mouth,ears and eye)they will see the revelation that God put infront of them…the spirit of Christ will lead all…

Ezekiel 8:14 mentions Tammuz.
Does the scriptures mention christmas… (Is pagan sol invictus )(which is not Messiahs birth time)And the Messiah was crucified on Passover ….Easter is a pagan celebration…..Yahwehs people perish for lack of knowledge…Hosea 4:6…We have been taught by wolves in sheep’s clothing…
The common saying “where there’s smoke there’s fire” couldn’t be more true here. The Mother and Child is found in all cultures, far preceding the birth of Christ, the Messiah. This Mother of the Babylonian Mystery Religion is depicted in many ‘so-called’ Christian churches. Even on the nations postage stamps. The worship of Semiramis and Tammuz continues to this day, but will end when Jesus Christ returns as King of all the earth. Then as it says in Joel, people will say “come let us go up to the Mountain of the Lord, to the House of Jacob’s God, He will teach us His ways, we will walk in His paths…..” God speed that day!
Muchos serán purificados, emblanquecidos y refinados; los impíos procederán impíamente. Ninguno de los impíos comprenderá, PERO LOS ENTENDIDOS COMPRENDRÁN. Daniel 12:10
Cierto. Pero si vamos entender las Escrituras, es necessario para nosotros para que tenga en cuenta la 2 Pedro 1:20, 1 Ts 5:21 y 1 Juan 4:1. De lo contrario, se inclinara hacia nuestra propia
Que Dois los bendiga.
Lo siento. Mi perdi la palabra comprension!
Whatever had been passed down from Adam & Eve down through the Generations … many wanted Prophecies of the Learned to come to them, because they wanted to feel to be the Chosen People.
Israel stood out, and still stands out.
Jesus Christ who is from Israel was the only one who fulfilled all the yearnings of the Old and satisfied all the curiousities of the New.
God Bless, because Jesus IS God.
Semiramis is the third person of the Babylonian trinity, with Easter another name for Ishtar,which is another name for Semiramis, Santa being Woden, another name for Nimrod, Cupid is probably Nimrod, a mighty hunter before Elohim, and the Tammuz tree has been around for thousands of years prior to Christianity falsely claiming it as its own invention. The word ‘glory’ esteems Semiramis, the title ‘lord’ means ‘ba’al’, the title ‘god’ is another name of ‘gad,’ which can be traced back to Nimrod, with the word ‘sanctify’ being of Pagan origin, along with the following words; holy, hallowed, sacred, bible, grace, divine, deity, theos, christ, jesus, church and gospel, which has been shortened from ‘god-spell, which the Babylonian Mystery Religion seems to possibly have been, with every religion incorporating the practices of this trinity with their religion (syncretism). Every word that Christians use Pagan words to describe can usually be traced back to this trinity, have non-Pagan equivalent english terms and words like ‘eloah’ and assembly, Messiah, Yahusha, Good News, Master, Hebraic Scriptures, sovereign, redeemed, etc., so why does Christianity insist on using these Pagan-based words? Of course, I have just scratched the surface, for their is much more to be told…
I have asked in another forum the question whether searching out and finding out these”secrets” would get us closer to “Heaven or Hell”,Are these things that important that we waste time gaining knowledge..one’s associaation with his creator is paramount moreso than critercising what has already been done…and christianity….Heaven help us all
I will answer this question for you, even though it has been years since you asked. Yes, it is important. You yourself answered your own question in that you state “one’s association with his creator is paramount.” If you do not know your creator you can easily be fooled to worship a false god. By knowing these things spoken here, although not salvational, it might help you or someone else realize who it is that is being worshiped. True salvational knowledge revolves around this one verse. Knowing this allows you to know the false as well.
And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. John 17:3
If this is the surface I can only imagine what could be lying beneath.. Please the next time you make such claims back them up with FACTS…
If these aren’t the proper words for the Almighty Creator, what are the proper words.
I personally believe you’re heading in the right direction, however I learned a long time ago, when you point out a problem you should also be equipped to provide the solution.
I agree with all that you have written. Thankd for sharing. Maybe some of these people might take enough interest to do their own research and find truth as well. For those that want to know the truth, they must be willing to search. Study to show yourselves approved.
the first time Christ is prophesied in the bible is gen. 3:15 ever since then the imposter has been trying to imitate
his resemblance. One day our faith shall be our eyes .we can deny or guess what really happen in the past ;but with todays technology we wont be able to deny the present/future.
There is a story that Semiramis was fed by doves after her father died. Has anyone else come across that info. That would make some interesting ties between ‘doves’ as in Jonah which means dove/vex/oppress/wrongdoing and of course the dove over Jesus’ head. Then the Noah link. There is this from Hosea as well: They shall tremble as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of Assyria: and I will place them in their houses, saith the LORD. Now, I know that the swallow represents Isis, the Dove probably Semiramis/Ishtar. Three birds can be found in Gilgamesh, the Story of Ushnaptim (Noah) from the Babylonian scriptures, a swallow, a dove and a raven. The raven if you follow the pattern in the Bible Noah story is said to “go to and fro” …. as is Satan in Job. So were women simply maligned back then (nothing new) or is the raven the good guy? What about genesis where it states that it is the seed of the WOMAN that crushes … lots to think about here.
addendum: the dove and swallow were considered ‘clean’ birds in the OT, the raven was not, most likely due to the fact that it ate roadkill which could then contaminate humans. You might also find it interesting that the name El Shaddai means ‘breasts’ and ‘fertility’ … this is oddly juxtaposed to all the verses expounding that all shrines pertaining to female worship be destroyed. Then think “jealous god”
I just had a radical thought. I’m searching the various bloodlines postflood and how they connect. What if… She was “The Rebel”. Society often overlooked or under estimate the power of women. Especially as they are the weaker sex. Yet most of this false religion is based on female worship. The Queen of heaven. Her husband and son barely play any role? She could have been the master manipulator . She outlived all her husband’s. And if she was a granddaughter of NoahNOAH, her lifespan could have reached up to 430 years!
Nimrod is the son of Semiramis and Cush, son of Ham, who was the son of Noah. Nimiod married his own mother Semirasmis following the instruction from his pagan priest who got their instruction from their pagan sungod Molech in an act of incest in to acquire “the third eye” or the “All seeing Eye”, which evolve until today with th same knowledge by those who called themselves the “illuminati or illuminated ones”. This is Satan’s doing “The All Seeing Eye of Lucifer”. This is a great counterfeit because God himself alone with a promise to see into the spiritual realm. This dark knowledge is imparted by the Devil or Satan himself and the fallen angels to mankind as describe in the book of Enoc. Semiramis become the Queen of Heaven and a moon goddess. When Nimrod died, Semiramis had to maintain her grip & power over the people in Babylon. She then gave birth to a bastard son named Tammuz who she claim was the reincarnation of Nimrod, and through this she was able to subdue the people of Babylon. Because Tammuz was “Nimrod in th flesh” and “one” with his father who was “one” with his wife/mother through marriage, and so “the Unholy Concept of a Trinity is born”. My stomache aches to see all these and I think about my families an relatives who worship on Sunday without knowing all of these misleadings. I am not convince when I joined the true Church of God by studying slowly the histories furthering the bible scriptures and I believe that God will show whole truth in a near future before his devine son returns to take his faithful home.
bible is historical and history is factual.. the biblical events are unfolding each and every day. some have passed, some are happening and some will happen. bible could not contain all things, it could have been very big to carry and reading could have been done when you step on the pages. we must accept historical account which are bringing more light as they point to the word of God.
Conclusion I draw is Roman Catholicism is neo-paganism. No Salvation in Catholic Faith, I see all nuns and priest as priests and priestess of Pagan Cultic religion. God’s people in Roman Catholic Church come out of Babylon.
Ezek 8:14
Hi everyone, it’s my first visit at this web page, and
piece of writing is genuinely fruitful in favor of me, keep up posting
such articles.
Hi there, I am working on a research on The Semiramis. Do you have any references to her being the wife of Cush and giving birth to Nimrod?
Brethens,history has a lot to do with what is happening in our world today. The Bible was centered on God’s people and not paganism. The rise of paganism was from Nimrod before God confused them. The whole world was practising paganism all because of Nimrod. Abraham was the establishment of Christianity. He that has ears let him hear.
There is a lot of history that the Bible does not mention that we ourselves have to go back and do some study, and there is a lot concerning ancient paganism that has transpired throughout the church history throughout, much of our history comes the rulership of wrong of the entire world, where a lot of our pagan traditions are pagan worship and our pagan thoughts and rituals have come from. it is really important that we study all of biblical history so that we can tie in all that we do know with what that we don’t know, so that it can be complete and whole, the Bible does say that we perish because of the lack of knowledge
