... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History VII:2 (July 1985) Home | Issue Contents THEORY WORKSHOP Exodus and Shishak Unraveled Michael S. Sanders Two major questions have remained unresolved in recent years regarding the revised chronology. Did the Exodus take place at the end of Early Bronze III or Middle Bronze IIC? Who was the Shishak who sacked the Temple of Rehoboam? I believe we can now answer both these questions. I submit this outline in advance of a paper in order to enable those workers in the field to present any valid criticisms or perhaps to assist them in their continuing efforts to unravel the past. The solution of the first question is finally given by Manfred ...
27. The Gold of Exodus by Howard Blum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1998:2 (Mar 1998) Home | Issue Contents The Gold of Exodus by Howard Blum (Hodder & Stoughton, 1998) The gold of the title is that supposedly left buried or lying about near Mt Sinai or Moses' Mountain by the Israelites, following the incident of the Golden Calf and the making by Bezalel and Oholiab of the Ark of the Covenant. Whether the protagonists of this strange adventure story, Larry Williams and Bob Cornuke, find any gold I shall leave to readers to learn for themselves. The story is told and embellished by a journalist with direct access to them, their printed versions and several official documentary ...
28. The Scenario of Exodus [Books] [de Grazia books]
... From: God's Fire, by Alfred De Grazia Home | Issue Contents CHAPTER TWO The Scenario of Exodus Amidst the escalating terrors of the plagues, the Egyptian government struggled to control the total situation. Boldly exploiting the disasters, Moses and his followers hastened to organize the Exodus. Negotiations proceeded in an ever more tense setting, The antagonist of the God-King Pharaoh Thaoi Thoum was the man Moses. What Moses was really like and what his background was will be portrayed later. In anticipation, here one may consider that Moses was a Hebraic Egyptian raised in a royal household, on the princely level of an adopted son of a princess. He had a named father whom he ...
29. The Exodus in the Pyramid Texts? [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Workshop Vol 4 No 4 (Mar 1982) Home | Issue Contents The Exodus in the Pyramid Texts?Walter Warshawsky It is assumed by Velikovsky and his supporters that the Exodus occurred after the Thirteenth Dynasty of Egypt. It is also assumed that there is little overlap in the first thirteen dynasties. These assumptions have not been tested. The cause for these assumptions seems to be the underlying assumption of progress in development of both language and pottery, as western civilisation sees it. It is not clear that catastrophically-minded people would develop language and pottery in the same way that we do, especially as regards the speed, the severity and the direction of the changes ...
30. Solving the Exodus Mystery by Ted T. Stewart [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS C & C Review 2004:1 Incorporating Workshop 2004:2 (May 2004) Home | Issue Contents Solving the Exodus Mystery by Ted T. Stewart ISBN 0-9718680-0-X (1999). Biblemart.com. Reviewed by: Laurence Dixon This is an unusual book in that the author openly states that his 24 year project to solve the Exodus Mystery was inspired by Velikovsky's Ages in Chaos, Courville's The Exodus Problem and its Ramifications, and Aling's Egypt and Bible History. He also benefited by visiting Palestine with Ron Wyatt, author of Discovered Noah's Ark. In his preview of volume two he states he gleaned invaluable material from Rohl's Pharaohs and Kings and quotes from ...
31. The Cloud of Jehovah [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... The Tabernacle Soon after the Sinai spectacle, still at the very beginning of their wandering, the newly liberated Israelites undertook the construction of a center of worship: the Tabernacle. It was a sizable structure but nevertheless portable, designed to be readily assembled or disassembled. The details of the design are given in excruciating detail in the book of Exodus. Much of the Tabernacle was made of fabric or hides, but there was an astounding amount of metal as well: 29 talents and 730 shekels of gold (Exodus 38:24) 100 talents and 1775 shekels of silver (Exodus 38:25) 70 talents and 2400 shekels of copper (Exodus 38:29) In ...
32. New Archaeological Dates for the Israelite Conquest Part II [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... built. [3 ] These facts coupled with the discrepancies between the late Bronze Age remains and the biblical account of the conquest have led John Bimson, lecturer in Old Testament at Trinity College, Bristol, England, to credit the MB IIC destructions in Palestine to the Israelite invasion. [4 ] Bimson believes that the date for the exodus in 1 Kings 6:1 is approximately correct (he dates the exodus to c. 1470-1460 B.C ., during the sole reign of Thutmose III). The conquest would have taken place forty years later, c. 1430-1420 B.C . So Bimson redates the end of the MB II period (usually placed at ...
33. Velikovsky's Sources Volume Four [Books]
... fire and water wrought great destruction of what is on the earth" (Colson, vol.vi). This must, as Colson points out, refer to the Flood of Noah and the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, neither of which has anything to do with V's scenario whose action takes place later, principally in the Book of Exodus. Earth-bound floods, of course, are easy enough to account for without the need for postulating anything so grand as a passing super- comet. But to what might a rain of heaven- sent fire refer, if it is not to V's naphtha? The key seems to lie with Sodom and Gomorrah, at least as far ...
34. A Critical Re-appraisal of the Book of Genesis, Part Two [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... language. The Graf-Wellhausen system has dominated the field of Biblical research for more than a century, as was explained in Part One. Consequently the entire Pentateuch is considered by scholars to be a late product - even those parts which deal with the "Egyptian Epoch" of Israelite history (i .e . from the Patriarch Joseph to the Exodus). Biblical critics today claim that those narratives which deal with the sojourn of Israel in Egypt were the work of authors who had very little knowledge of Egypt and matters Egyptian [1 ]. As Professor Yahuda explains, Egyptology failed to provide a solution, not because the Egyptian element was lacking but "only because after the rise ...
35. Untitled [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Proceedings of The Third Seminar of Catastrophism and Ancient History (1986) Home | Issue Contents Some New Factors Bearing Upon the Date of the Exodus William H. Shea I. Introduction The oldest historical writing in which an attempt was made to connect the biblical Exodus with Egyptian history is found in the works of Josephus (c . 90 A.D .) . There he employed some statements from the Egyptian priest Manetho (third century B.C .) to link the Exodus of the Israelites with the expulsion of the Hyksos from Egypt. If this connection were correct it would date the Exodus to the end of the fifteenth (Hyksos) dynasty in the ...
36. The Exodus Problem and Its Ramifications [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History X:1 (Jan 1988) Home | Issue Contents INTERACTION The Exodus Problem and Its Ramifications Donovan Courville Some fifteen years have elapsed since the publication of my volumes under the title, The Exodus Problem and Its Ramifications. In the course of this interval I have altered my position on a few points of significance, and my thinking remains open on some others. On the fundamental deviations from the conventional views, I remain firm in my positions. These include (1 ) the setting of the Exodus/Conquest era at the end of Early Bronze but redated to the mid-to-late fifteenth century; (2 ) a recognition of the famine in ...
37. Conclusion [Books] [de Grazia books]
... material of a great and true story of disaster and survival. The story centers upon a scientific genius - Moses - and a new god - Yahweh. Yahweh is recognized as a great comet, as an electrical presence on earth, as the hallucinations of Moses, and as all cognate mental and social behavior in the times and places of Exodus, the Wanderings, and the invasion of Canaan. Of Yahweh, Vriezen has stated correctly: "If this God has to be typified in one word, that word must be: Power; or, still better, perhaps: Force. Everything about and around Yahweh feels the effect of this. He as it were electrifies his ...
38. Thera and the Exodus: the Cause and the Effect [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Chronology and Catastrophism Workshop 1990 No 2 (Dec 1990) Home | Issue Contents ARTICLES Thera and the Exodus: the Cause and the Effect by David A. Slade "An attempt has recently been made to link the Jewish Exodus chronologically with the Thera eruption, with the suggestion that there was some causal relationship between the ten plagues of Egypt and Theran vulcanism. Only in two aspects does this suggestion seem at all possible. The temporary retreat of sea-water and darkness which could be felt' lasting for three days can be rationally explained as seismic and volcanic phenomena" [1 ]. So wrote J. V. Luce, Senior Tutor in Classics at Trinity ...
39. Exploring Exodus (Review) [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History IX:2 (July 1987) Home | Issue Contents BOOK REVIEW Exploring Exodus (Review)By Nahum M. Sarna Reviewed by Herbert A. Storck Exploring Exodus is the long awaited sequel to Nahum Sarna's Understanding Genesis, which appeared about twenty years ago. Sarna's current contribution is a worthy successor to the Genesis volume. The first two sections, "Introduction" and "The Oppression," deal with what is known of the historical background to the Exodus. Thereafter chapters follow on the birth of Moses and his commissioning, the plagues and passover, the route of the Exodus, the ten commandments, the laws, and finally the ...

... been thought, but only 50,000 years. But if sodium were taken as the basis of computation and other sources of accretion were reckoned with, the age of the Dead Sea, strangely enough, would be less than 6,000 or even 5,000 years. (1 ) Was it formed in the days of the Exodus, when Mount Sinai erupted and some debacle took place at the Sea of Passage? Was the catastrophe felt also in Egypt? Does any Egyptian document speak of a catastrophe? I inquired and consulted books, but no book on the history of Egypt mentioned any such catastrophe. Then I came upon a reference to a sage, Ipuwer ...
42. The Levites and the Revolts [Books] [de Grazia books]
... From: God's Fire, by Alfred De Grazia Home | Issue Contents CHAPTER SEVEN The Levites and the Revolts The "Hebrews" of Exodus were of various degrees of Hebrew-ness. Many were quite Egyptian. Many others were assimilated to Egyptian culture. The most important larger group were traditionally loyal Elohists. Few could have been Yahwist, inasmuch as Moses was only then expounding the new cult. In what would have been Goshen, at Tell ed-Dab'a, a town of the Middle Bronze Age has recently been excavated. It reveals a heavy non-Egyptian, Palestinian aspect. Skeletal remains, etymology, and artifacts disclose a heterogeneous population of Semitic and other backgrounds [1 ]. This would ...

44. Ancient History Study Group Report on meeting of 6th March 1999 [Journals] [SIS Review]

From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1999:2 (Feb 2000) Home | Issue Contents Ancient History Study Group Report on meeting of 6th March 1999 John Crowe John Crowe: The Exodus In a way, we began with the Exodus. It was Velikovsky's belief that the Biblical Exodus story was based on one or more actual catastrophic events that was the seed from which stemmed his life's work as a catastrophist and ancient historian. The Exodus of the Hebrews was the Genesis of the SIS. Velikovsky also believed that the effects of such events must have extended well beyond the borders of Egypt and hence must have left their calling card within the archaeological record. Many SIS members ...
45. On the Survival of Velikovsky's Thesis in 'Ages in Chaos' [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... suggests that the task turned out not to be so readily accomplished as he had at first anticipated. It was apparent to some conservative Old Testament scholars, including the writer, that his thesis held the potential for arriving at a proper correlation of the unique incidents of biblical history with Egyptian history. Of primary significance are the incidents of the Exodus, the Israelite conquest, the era of enslavement, and the time of Solomon. But until it has been demonstrated that the late history and chronology of Egypt can thus be rationally condensed by these 500 years, there seemed little basis for placing unconditional confidence in his proposals. A degree of basis for hope in this direction could be ...
46. Some Preliminary Remarks About Thera and Atlantis [Journals] [Kronos]
... do not coincide with his own assessments in his earlier article. It seems particularly important to remember certain facts about the dating of Thera's Late Bronze Age volcanic eruption, since several Velikovskians have seized upon this event as confirmation for a 15th century global cataclysm probably caused by a Venusian near-collision, and a likely triggering device for the miracles of the Exodus, including the days of darkness, the pillars of smoke and fire, and the splitting of the Sea of Passage. This notion does not square with Velikovskian cosmology or chronology for four major reasons. First, Thera's explosion is dated to the 15th-century by the standard chronology. The event is firmly fixed in the Late Minoan I ceramic ...
47. Is Early Bronze the Time of the Exodus? [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]

From: Catastrophism and Ancient History V:2 (July 1983) Home | Issue Contents INTERACTION Is Early Bronze the Time of the Exodus?Marvin Luckerman Professor Emmanuel Anati, an Italian expert on rock art, lectured recently at UCLA, "Har Karkom: A Holy Mountain in the Desert of Exodus." Surveying in the Negev Mountains, he had explored a mountain called Har Karkom which had many examples of rock art, one of which was particularly surprising. It depicted a series of worshipers, but instead of a god there was only a slash where the figure of a bull or some other deity should have been shown. After working at Har Karkom a few ...

... (LB IIB) in the conventional; Solomon is towards the end of the Late Bronze Age (LB IIB) in the New Chronology but in the Iron Age (IA IIA) in the conventional. The question of Jericho's position on the archaeological time line has been asked by SIS people and also Velikovsky. Can the dates for the Exodus and Moses be calculated from the biblical material? This is usually done by taking Year 1 of Solomon as around 971 (according to Thiele and others) and adding 480 years from his Year 4 (967), when the Temple was constructed, to give a date of 1447 for the Exodus. According to the biblical tradition, ...

50. And it Came to Pass, in the Days of Amraphel King of Shine'ar: Biblical Veracity and Non-biblical Chronology [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... simpler days, say a century ago, every schoolboy knew that Abraham was the first Hebrew Patriarch and a contemporary of the Babylonian king Hammurabi (renowned for his law code). Biblical criticism, asking for the scientifically required independent corroboration for the deeds of Abraham, raised doubts regarding his very existence (and the veracity of other Patriarchal and Exodus tales in the Bible); archaeology, invariably confirming the biblical data from the Books of Kings onward, appeared less generous concerning the earlier feats. Was there an Exodus? Since the event is not (so it is generally held) mentioned in Egyptian records, doubt is in fashion. And if it did happen, when? ...
