... name. During one of the catastrophes, when the world burned, the sun stood still on the horizon. How, I thought, could the Indians have known the relation between the disturbance in the earth's rotation and the burning of the world- unless such events had really taken place? I thought of parallels in the Scriptures: Between the Exodus and the day of Joshua at Ajalon about fifty-two years passed. Brasseur, though a clergyman and missionary, had never noticed any similarity between the Mexican and biblical stories; neither had he conceived of a cosmic disturbance in which planets participated; he believed that the continental catastrophe had seismic causes, connected with sudden elevation of mountains, subsidence ...

... Chaos" series; cf. P.A .F . Infos. 6 and 8) brought to light the experiences repressed by the human collective - catastrophes caused by celestial bodies - of which one of the most terrible was the worldwide conflagration caused by Venus at the beginning of the 15th Century BCE, at the time of the Israelite exodus from Egypt (in the books "Worlds in Collision" and "Earth in Upheaval"; cf. P.A .F . Infos. 1 to 5, concerning the confirmation by Pioneer Venus results). Doesn't it go without saying that just this all-embracing analysis of our past must lead to the answers to the challenge raised ...
378. A LATER DATE FOR THE PHAETHON EVENT? [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... , an identification which I shall accept without demur. However, Venus seems to have caused most of its havoc at the Spring Equinox (in Nisan) rather than the Summer Solstice (in Tammuz). However, Patten et al. seem to have overlooked two vital pieces of information in formulating their argument. The first is that the Exodus contact and its sequelae were prolonged and repeated - there were four further contacts between Earth and Venus after the crossing of the Red Sea, as evidenced by four standing-stills of the sun and moon (3 ). The Venus orbit should have been somewhat disturbed by these contacts, and an autumn contact is not necessarily to be expected as ...

380. Mount Horeb and Judah's Sacred Treasures [Journals] [Aeon]
... then mention of the consecration ceremony carried out by Moses with the appearance of the "cloud and the Glory of God," exactly as it transpired on Mount Horeb. The most significant clue, however, is that the mountain is actually identified as the one on which Moses had seen "God's heritage," the same words used in Exodus 15, 17 to define Mount Horeb. This conclusion has seemed so incredible to most exegetes that they have preferred to strain the sense of the text, opting instead for Mount Nebo. The main reason for their reluctance to accept Mount Horeb probably stems from their identification of Mount Horeb with Gebel el Musa in the Sinai, which would ...
381. Foreword and Introduction to Ages in Chaos [Velikovsky]
... Ages in Chaos Foreword Immanuel Velikovsky Ages in Chaos was conceived in the spring of 1940. It was then that I realized that the Exodus had occurred in the midst of a natural upheaval and that this catastrophe might prove to be the connecting link between the Israelite and Egyptian histories, if ancient Egyptian texts were found to contain references to a similar event. I found such references and before long had worked out a plan of reconstruction of ancient history from the Exodus to the conquest of the East by Alexander the Great. Already by October of the same year I had come to understand the nature and extent of that catastrophe. For a decade after that I worked simultaneously on ...

... Derek Douglass's letter in Workshop 4:1 . He starts off with special pleading that the atheist declaration "must evoke .. . sympathy from the catastrophist". Why? He does not deign to tell us. He then goes on to make a number of totally irrelevant statements, e.g ., the events of Creation, Exodus, etc., "can now be explained by a natural sequence of causes and effects". Does he think God is an "unnatural" cause? Anthropomorphism crops up: he creates a mythical struggle between God and "Mr Science", alleging victory for science without citing evidence for this claim. He comes up with some ...

The odor of formaldehyde, like the odor of Sagan's evidence, seems to get worse. Formaldehyde, when itpolymerizes, becomes carbohydrates. But Sagan still seems to think manna is a hydrocarbon where he states, "In Exodus, Chapter 16, Verse 20, we find that manna left overnight was infested by worms in the morning-an event possible with carbohydrates, but extremely unlikely with hydrocarbons. Moses may have been a better chemist than Velikovsky."5 In the Atlantic Monthly, Mannfred A. Hollinger of the University of California, Davis, Department of Pharmacology ...

385. Trisms and Planetary Iconography [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... produced evidence showing that the two celestial objects that produce a trism between them may be planets and have hinted that the trism, itself, may have been considered a god. As such, the Babylonian designation for "god" was three stars depicted horizontally. (10) Now, let us examine another Velikovskian planetary scenario: the Hebraic Exodus from Egypt. According to Velikovsky, both the protoplanet Venus' approach and proximity to the Earth caused the devastation that accompanied the Hebraic Exodus from Egypt. (11) The following are some illustrations which support Velikovsky's contention: Figure 42, is my sketch of part of a wall painting from the catacombs beneath the Via Latina in Rome ...
386. Bronze Age Destructions in the Near East [Journals] [SIS Review]
... series of catastrophic events took place between 776 and 687 BC and was associated with activity by the planet Mars. Some seven hundred years earlier, in the 15th century BC, the planet Venus, which was then on a cometary orbit, came close enough to Earth to cause the biblical events known to us as the plagues which preceded the Exodus of the Israelites from Egypt and the so-called "long day of Joshua", when it was recorded that the sun "stood still" in the valley of Beth Horon. In this book, Velikovsky synchronised the Exodus with the end of the Egyptian Middle Kingdom during Manetho's XIIIth Dynasty and the conquest of Canaan with the end of the ...
387. Herakles and Velikovskian Catastrophism [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Velikovsky's Revised Chronology the Jews left Egypt as the Hyksos entered. After 40 years of travel through the desert the Jews reached the border of the Promised Land, ready to enter. Then Moses died.8 Augustine, who preserved many chronological dates of great value in his De Civitate Dei, wrote that Busiris lived during the time between the Exodus and the death of Joshua,9 and the chronicle of Eusebius and Hieronymus made Busiris contemporary with Joshua. About human sacrifice in Egypt I found more. In a fragment of Manetho10 we read: "The rite of human sacrifice at Heliopolis [or Eileithyiaspolis]11 in Egypt was suppressed by Amosia." We can choose among three ...
388. The el-Amarna Letters and the New Chronology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... source independent of Egypt in order to test the placement of the 18th Dynasty offered by the New Chronology. We suggest that this independent source on Syro-Palestine, the home of the el-Amarna minor correspondents, should be none other than the Old Testament and in particular the two books of Samuel. Because the conventional chronology places the el-Amarna period before the Exodus and Conquest, the question of comparing the biblical history of the Early Monarchy period with the data from the el-Amarna archive has never previously arisen. Nevertheless, much of the ground work has already been done for us by orthodox scholars. It will be seen that the scholars whose observations we shall draw upon and who identify for us the ...
389. Mountain Myths (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... ' or to set up high', each one of which is significant. Another holy mountain of the Jews is Horeb, or Sinai. Either of these names is highly significant and reveals it as a deluge refuge: Horeb means the Dry One', and Sinai means mountam of the Moon-god Sin'. Scattered in the book of Exodus we find a tangle of excessively edited' myths of cosmic upheaval, which are most difficult to unravel and straighten out. We have the plagues' in Egypt' (Exodus vii- xii); the flood phenomena (xiv); the fearful presence' of the Lord' upon the Mount (xix); the altar' with ...

The following were elected to serve as officers for 1980/81: Harold Tresman Chairman Bernard Prescott Treasurer Geoffrey Gammon Secretary Malcolm Lowery Editor, SIS Review Brian Moore Information Officer Val Pearce Overseas Publication Secretary. After the business of the Meeting, there was an excellent talk given by Dr Newgrosh on the subject of Venus Before Exodus. He outlined the ideas of Martin Sieff on the catastrophic destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, and made a strong case for there being parallels with Exodus and Joshua's destruction at Jericho. There was, he said, compelling evidence for Venus being the catastrophic agent - both from mythological and archaeological viewpoints. It is hoped that a fuller version ...

... Europe which had perhaps become submerged in the Atlantic Ocean. During question time, Wal Thornhill raised the question of Plato's date for Atlantis which was 9,000 years before the time of his Grandfather, Solon, and suggested that instead of omitting a "nought" in order to bring the time of Atlantian demise into the time of the Exodus with the advantage of ascribing the Velikovskian Venus catastrophe as the cause of the disaster, it might be better to consider the figure of 9,000 as correct and attribute the submergence of Atlantis to a former Saturn catastrophe.

394. Preface (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... whether what he is reading is invention or historical fact. On one point alone, not necessarily decisive for the theory of cosmic catastrophism, I borrow credence: I use a synchronical scale of Egyptian and Hebrew histories which is not orthodox. It was in the spring of 1940 that I came upon the idea that in the days of the Exodus, as evident from many passages of the Scriptures, there occurred a great physical catastrophe, and that such an event could serve in determining the time of the Exodus in Egyptian history or in establishing a synchronical scale for the histories of the peoples concerned. Thus I started Ages in Chaos, a reconstruction of the history of the ancient ...
395. Fifty Two Years Earlier, Part 1 Venus Ch.2 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... in the Desert is given by the Scriptures as forty years. Then, for a number of years before the day of the disturbed movement of the earth, the protracted conquest of Palestine went on.(2 ) It seems reasonable, therefore, to ask whether a date fifty-two years before this event would coincide with the time of the Exodus. In the work Ages in Chaos, I describe at some length the catastrophe that visited Egypt and Arabia. In that work it is explained that the Exodus took place amid a great natural upheaval that terminated the period of Egyptian history known as the Middle Kingdom. There I endeavour to show that contemporary Egyptian documents describe the same disaster ...
396. Summary and Closing Address [Journals] [SIS Review]
... . He mentioned an investigation at Tell ed-Daba where the presence of a female sacrifice indicated that the Israelites had already left at the time of the sacrifice, on the assumption that it was unlikely to have been an Israelite practice, and argued that the timing of that was compatible with his model but would not have been compatible with moving the Exodus date one hundred years before. The significance of that is not quite clear insofar as all James says, since it was James' model he was referring to, is that the Dynasty 18 starts a hundred years earlier, not necessarily that the Exodus was moved forward by a hundred years. That point still needs to be debated. ...
397. The Tutankhamun Deception (Book Review). C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... author believes the papyri had originally been stored within the kilts of the two sentinel statues and that Carter had partly deciphered the hieroglyphs in the interim, but was unable to prevent Breasted's arrival. Quoting Hoving [3 ], he reports Carter as once threatening to publish throughout the world Documents which will present a true and scandalous account of the exodus of the Jews from Egypt'. O'Farrell accepts uncritically the theories of his friend Ahmed Osman [4 ] that Yuya, the great-grandfather of Tutankhamun, should be identified with the patriarch Joseph; that Akhenaten was Moses and was driven with the Semites from Egypt; that Tutankhamun returned to the Aten religion and reinstated the old gods as mediators ...
398. De Grazian Discography (Reviewed) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... that The Divine Succession should be a compulsory textbook for all school religious studies. Human evolution may be an interesting topic, but the evolution of the gods may turn out to be much more significant for our understanding of the universe. God's Fire is an imaginative reconstruction of that central event for the Judaic, Islamic and Christian religions, the Exodus. If the event took place, as Velikovsky proposed, against a background of meteoritic showers and significantly enhanced electrical charge on the atmosphere, then many supposedly supernatural events in the biblical account are susceptible to a scientific explanation. De Grazia takes Velikovsky's scenario considerably further, particularly with regard to electrical phenomena, then goes on - drawing on ...
