... kith and kin who had been claimed by death; he invoked a miracle for the sake of the woman who had welcomed him kindly to her house. (14) GEHAZI Gehazi, proved untrustworthy by his conduct on this occasion, again aroused the ire of the prophet when he disregarded the order not to accept money from Naaman, the Syrian captain. He did not succeed in deceiving the prophet. On his return from Naaman he found Elisha occupied with the study of the chapter in the Mishnah Shabbat which deals with the eight reptiles. The prophet Elisha greeted him with the rebuke: "Thou villain! the time has come for me to be rewarded for the study of ...
152. Another Velikovsky Affray: the Histories [Journals] [SIS Review]
... not speak their language. He then turned his attention to war; he had triremes built, some on the Mediterranean coast, others on the Arabian gulf (The Red Sea for Indian Ocean trade) where the docks are still to be seen, and made use of his new fleets as occasion arose; and in addition he attacked the Syrians by land and defeated them at Magdolus, afterwards attacking (Cadytis) Gaza, a large town in Syria... Then after a reign of sixteen years, he died, and was succeeded by his son Psammis' [10]. The canal was a significant undertaking: according to Herodotus, the length of the canal is ...
153. The Saturn Problem [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Teshub (equivalent of Zeus) climbs Mount Hazzi (Greek Kasios) to espy the gigantic Ullikummi (equivalent of Typhon). An Ugaritic text tells us that the Phoenician name for Hazzi was Spn or Saphon, evidently the origin of the name Typhon' [61]. This nexus of geographical and phonetic links demonstrates how important the Cilician-North Syrian coast was in the development of the Greek myths of theogony and theomachy. As the region was dominated by the Hurrians for much of the Bronze Age, it provides corroborative evidence of the Hurrian contribution to Hesiod. It would seem likely that the Bronze Age Greeks learnt of the Hurrian myths not via the Hittites of central Anatolia but through ...
154. The Lion Gate at Mycenae [Journals] [Pensee]
... due to the existing state of chronological affairs (47). The Gordian knot of art historical controversy is not so easily cut, either. As Demargne has asked, "to what extent was the Mycenaean world influenced by Syria or Egypt either directly or via Cyprus .. .. Conversely, to what extent were the civilizations of the Syrian towns, of the Egypt of Amarna and the XIXth Dynasty, accessible to Aegean influences (48)?" Nevertheless, one thing is certain and that is the fact that according to the now accepted art historical framework, we have a renowned work of monumental sculpture which time wise exists in apparent "splendid isolation " and alien in ...
155. The Hebrew Patriarchs in Greek Tradition (Part I) [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... most of her children settled in Syria. The youngest of them was Bethuel. There is, likewise, no tradition to connect Bethuel with any abduction or residence in Egypt as is claimed by the most popular tradition about Epaphus. But in all the accounts, Epaphus is specifically linked with Syria, as was Bethuel who twice was called The Syrian' [Genesis 25:20 & 28:5 ]. Now Epaphus had two children - Lybya and Lynsianassa while Bethuel also had two children - Rebekah and Laban. LYBYA the daughter of Epaphus bore twin sons to Poseidon. These twins, Agenor and Belus, hated each other from birth. REBEKAH the daughter of Bethuel bore twin ...

... name Hammurabi occurs frequently), and also a surprising number of Egyptian-looking deities or other motifs, such as the winged disc and the ankh. Collon states (p . 185 under the heading Egyptianizing Figures and Motifs' - emphasis added throughout): "The sealings from level VII at Alalakh provide the first datable examples of Egyptian scenes in Syrian glyptic and would indicate that contact was maintained between Egypt and Northern Syria during the period of Hyksos domination, or at least during the first half of the 17th century BC. Dr John Schmidt, with whom I discussed the question, has suggested that contact between Egypt and the Near East, which is documented for the later periods, ...

... before Babylon city was recognised as the capital. So, was Ur simply the word for capital city', much as we say town' meaning London (and has descended to us through Latin as Urban')? The trade in Woolley's Ur was not sheep and goats which were the mainstay of Abraham's life! However trade in North Syrian cities was.

158. Velikovsky and the El-Amarna period [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ) Tutankhamun 9 years (676-667) Ay 4 years (667-663) On these dates, El-Amarna must be dated to 700-670BC and it is no surprise to find a stele of Thutmose IV with a Saitic text. In both conventional and Velikovsky's history, nothing is known about Tutankhamun's opponents, although he is known to have fought against Ethiopians and Syrians. The Ethiopian Dynasty (712-657) with kings Shabaqo (712-698), Shebitqo (698-690), Taharqo (690-664) and Tantamani (664-657) was much later. On the above arguments we might know the name of his opponent: it could have been Taharqo. Furthermore Akhenaten (identified with Anysis) becomes a contemporary of Shabaqo ...

... ." She was the Shekinah, a mystic word often variously typified as a Lotus, a Rose, an Egg, and by symbols that were oval, as a Cup, a Boat or a Moon. "God when He meditates on Divine Beauty, is said to be one; but when He creates to be Bi-Une. The Syrians symbolized this communion by their image of Ad-Ad, the Sun-Father, shooting down his splendid rays toward the Earth, while she sent forth rays of splendor upward that met and mingled with His beam."[2 ] She was also the Argha, a most ancient form of the "Ship," the Ark that floated over the ...

... ), according to 2 Kings 3:1 . Jehoram (Joram) the son of Ahab ruled twelve years (900-889 B.C .) . It was also accounted the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat (2 Kings 1:17). Thiele has plausibly argued that when Jehoshaphat went to war with Ahab against the Syrians (Arameans) at Ramoth-Gilead in the battle in which Ahab was mortally wounded, Jehoram was named heir-apparent. [12] In the fifth year of Joram of Israel (896), while Jehoshaphat was still alive, Jehoram was reaffirmed as king of Judah. He began to reign alone after the death of Jehoshaphat- but then killed ...
