Chronology of the Prophets in the Old Testament
The Prophecy of the Popes, attributed to Saint Malachy, is a list of 112 short phrases in Latin. They purport to describe each of the Catholic popes (along with a few anti-popes), beginning with Pope Celestine II (elected in 1143) and concluding with a pope described in the prophecy as “Peter the Roman”, whose pontificate will end in the. Buy The Queen's Prophet at Angus & Robertson with Delivery - <p><b>Inspired by Vel zquez's baroque masterpiece, <i>Las Meninas</i>, <i>The Queen's Prophet</i> is an imagined account of the dwarfess Maribarbola of Spain (featured prominently in Vel zquez's painting) and her struggle for survival and self-determination at a time when dwarfs were.
Deuteronomy18 -'And if you say in your heart, 'How shall we know the word which the LORD hasnot spoken?'--'when a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the thing doesnot happen or come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken'

Blessings if they followed the LORD and curses ifthey forsook him. Moses their great leader warned the people of Israel not todisobey the LORD or else:
Deuteronomy28:49-50 - 'The LORD will bring a nation against you from far, from theend of the earth, as the eagle flies; a nation whose language you will notunderstand; a nation of fierce facial expressions, that doesn't respect theelderly, nor show favor to the young.'

From the previously-on segment, it does seem like we’re going to see John this episode, and that’s a relief. And the cold open revealed Geillis, so I’m glad to be back on somewhat even footing with my expectations vs. reality for the show.
I am sad that they still had Geillis rape Young Ian. (Yes, it’s rape. He’s 14 and she’s in her 50s, so consent isn’t possible, even if you discount the fact that he’s her prisoner and she has all of the power, which also negates consent. And oh, yeah, he’s drugged, too. Rape.) This has always been a problematic section of the books for me, and I’d hoped they wouldn’t include it in the show, or would at least cut the rape of a minor. The scene was striking enough with her bathing in blood and revealing just how crazy she is—we didn’t need the rest. I’m glad to cut to the credits.
The title card is odd, only because this must have happened before the cold open. So it’s weird to get it afterward.
Is it just wishful thinking on Jamie’s part that the Porpoise hasn’t yet made it to Jamaica? I get his reasoning, but the Artemis didn’t exactly make good time—being waylaid by storm and a broken mast. Unless the Porpoise ran into similar misfortune, there’s every reason to believe they would have made it into port days if not over a week earlier. And if the Porpoise was carrying the new governor (and I’m going to be angry if it was, because I really, really wanted to see Claire and John on the ship!), then the fact that a ball is scheduled would indicate that it has already arrived. (EDIT: Having seen the whole episode, he’s already been there a month, so, I’m still mad about the missing scene, but in the grand scheme of things it’s not a huge deal.)
But I suppose Claire and Jamie don’t know that—and we, the audience, don’t know it either.
I’m liking some of the other streamlining they’re doing in this episode, though—particularly with Temeraire and having him assist them at the ball (and their reason for attending). I also appreciate getting more information about the Brahan Seer prophecies, and that Geillis gives a different provenance for the treasure on the Selkie’s isle and why she knew where it was/wanted it. That was always a problem for me in the books.
The encounter with Archibald was a bit odd. I felt like they were trying to imply that he knew who Jamie and Claire really were, but I’m not sure how he could. Geillis knew Jamie’s real name even back at Leoch, but she’s been gone from Scotland for a very long time. How would she know about him going by the name Malcolm?
Or maybe I’m just reading too much into it, and the moment is only meant to show dramatic irony—that we, the viewers, know where Archibald is staying and with whom, and Claire and Jamie don’t.
I’m also liking that they are pressing hard on Claire and Jamie’s dislike of slavery. Jamie is from this time, and understands the realities of the world in which they’re living (hence him buying Temeraire in the first place), but he abhors the idea of enslaving another person, and looks truly chagrined when Claire says it will take a hundred years in America.
But Claire, it hasn’t ended yet. It’s still happening, right now. And I will link my readers to this article that gives you some ideas of ways to fight back. There are lots more articles like that. Find a way that works for you, and do it. And that’s not even engaging with the huge problem of forced prison labor that happens every day in the US. Slavery isn’t over. We just call it by a different name now. But I’m getting into dark territory. Let’s get back to the episode.
The interlude with Yi Tien Cho was interesting. They’re walking an incredible tightrope between turning the character into a parody and acknowledging the reactions that upper-class women of the time would have had to seeing him. Gary Young’s acting is saving it so far, because he gives the role a great amount of dignity and gravitas that keeps the scene from careening into comic relief.
Oh, but his shared glance with Margaret is so lovely. OK, they pulled that one off, and I’m happy to dance wherever they are leading me with these two.
And then they followed it up with a moment that reminds me why I’m still watching this show after a season that has had quite a few disappointments. I both needed to fan myself and fell deeply in love over that drawn-out, longing look between Claire and Jamie. This is the first time since they’ve been reunited that I actually felt like they were in love. Like they’ve finally reconciled the people they are now with the ones they remember, and come out on the other side stronger together. This is what Outlander is all about.
The scene with John is absolutely pitch-perfect. Jamie so earnest, wanting to hear about Willie, John pleased to be able to report good news and also yearning, his feelings put on display when the sapphire is revealed, Claire feeling awkward and like a third wheel. Perfection. This episode is rapidly catapulting to my favorite of the season.
I think they’re setting up Margaret and Yi Tien Cho in the garden in place of the dead woman—so more like he is “ruining” Archibald’s sister than being accused of murder. Which is good, in one sense, but terrible in another, because these two are beautiful together.
And so are Claire and John. Oh, so much delicious tension. Both of them trying to feel out what Jamie means to the other—and both jealous of the relationship he has with the other. And yet they’re striking sparks off each other in ways that are going to play out so, so well in the future. Lovely, lovely, lovely is all I have to say about that!
OK, I do have one more thing to say. What the heck is this piece of jewelry around Claire’s neck? Or rather, what is that clasp on her pearls? I can’t stop looking at it. It looks like a sparkling slug. There have even been times when the play of light on it in the scene made it look like it was moving and glistening wetly. Ick. Now I’ll return to real commentary, promise.
Well, that was until Geillis actually brought it up in the show! But knowing it’s black coral actually makes sense to why it looks like a slug, so now I understand. But really, Claire. Haven’t you learned anything about trusting/being friends with Gillian Edgars/Geillis Duncan-Abernathy?
And then to have Claire give the stink eye to Jamie and John for chatting and drinking is just the best. Love, love, love everything happening in this episode.
I’m freaking out over here right now, y’all. Margaret’s prophecy is so much more than we have ever gotten about the Brahan Seer prophecies and the reason why Bree and her family were attacked at Lallybroch in the 80s and I’m DYING. I really, really, really want to know if this is canon for the books, because it will blow my mind if it is.
Officially best episode of this season, and not just because of that. It’s actually very well plotted with clear character motivations, even given the deus ex machina coincidence-machine, and the pieces are fitting together with cohesion and purpose. Y’all, I am officially excited about Outlander again. Sad it took them 12 episodes to get here, but at least we’ve arrived.
I like having a moment with Fergus and Marsali and having that turn into them warning Jamie about Captain Leonard’s arrival. I’m also very glad that nothing bad happened to Margaret or Yi Tien Cho—and I’m hoping that he helps her escape from Rose Hall in the next episode and they go live happily ever after.
Having Temeraire find the signs and go off to join the maroons was nice. I think that will play out in the next episode when they need the help of the escaped slaves to go to Abandawe.

Ending with Jamie being captured makes sense, but I can’t help but feel like this is now false conflict. The freaking governor of Jamaica is in love with Jamie. He isn’t going to let anything bad happen to him. But I can also see that Jamie is having those exact thoughts—and that’s why he’s confident to send Claire on to Rose Hall to find Young Ian.
So in general, this episode kicked ass, and I am very, very happy about that. There are still threads dangling for next week (like Jamie handing Claire the pictures, so that Geillis can find out about Brianna), but this felt more like a two-part episode than anything else, so while we’re definitely hanging in the middle, once the next episode airs I’ll be able to watch them back-to-back and that feeling will go away.
One thing that I miss in this episode is the particular piece of dialogue between Claire and John when he talks about being born the wrong person for someone. It doesn’t fit into the episode, so I understand why they cut it, but I miss it very much. It’s my favorite quote from the books, and I think it perfectly encapsulates the odd triangle between John, Jamie, and Claire. We certainly got a sense of that in the acting, but I liked having him actually say it in the books. Maybe they’ll fit it in later in the series.

I just watched Lani’s vlog over at Sex and Whisky, and she and I are on exactly the same page, as usual. The coincidences are so far out there, and yet, the show is embracing them with flair. When the characters are strong and the story is well-told, I’m willing to go with it. But if you’re looking for another voice that’s saying everything I am, go watch her videos for this season. It was fun watching her this week, since she’s so happy and that’s exactly how I’m feeling right now.
