... argument in spite of a critique against it by R. Borger. Moreover, the alternating of both "b "and "p " in Ugaritic texts recommends that we cannot be dogmatic with respect to reading apiru as the correct one. Lastly, the admittedly difficult references to " h a-bir-a-a" also seem to exclude reading PIR in middle Babylonian. Accordingly, the reading h abiru should now be preferred. These arguments are directly based on van der Veen's research (pp. 25-26). However, . . . the discovery of the verb " h abaru," in relation to h abiru in newly published Mari texts, now adequately proves that the noun h abiru can ...
562. The Myth of the Tower [Books]
... of reports in the mythology of other peoples. Gunkel has attempted to separate also the material of Genesis xi.19 into a tower-building myth and a city building plus language confusion myth and, it must be admitted with great skill. However, led astray by the redactor's gloss about Babel', he supposes the myths to be of possibly Babylonian origin. Unfortunately this very theory deprives him of the basis for his case, for in the ancient Orient no city' was ever without its ' ziggurat', nor was a ziggurat' ever built without a city'. We must therefore try another division of the material, approach it from another, angle and, chiefly go ...
563. Dragon-Slayers (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... , fiery beings which followed him in armies', dense swarms, making a great noise, like the Qetto which followed Apepi, and the monsters in the train of Tiāmat. But the dragon-slayer myth is not restricted to Aryans; it is as world wide as the dragon myth itself. The Jews tell of Michael and Satan, the Babylonians of Marduk and Tiamat, the Egyptians of Ra and Apepi. The Algonkians tell of the Great Horned Serpent' which once in the past had a great struggle with the Thunder Birds'. Another striking, though much less frequently found, feature of the dragon-slaying myths is the fact that it is sometimes a descendant who kills his sire ...

... planet Saturn.(6 ) Heidel also tell us that "Cronos [Saturn] is called El by the Phoenicians."(7 ) In Job 22:12-14, El is associated with Eloah,(8 ) while Morgenstern tells us that "in this role of the all-knowing god El seems to have much in common with the Babylonian deity, Enki-Ea, the all-wise one."(9 ) As others have already shown, Enki-Ea was merely another name for Saturn.(10) In a more direct way, Albright also equated El with the Latin Saturnus.(11) We therefore ask: What did the planet Saturn have to do with the Creation of ...

... or 246.2 ) year total for the kingdom of Israel will be similarly subject to cumulative rounding error. The dates of Egyptian dynasties XVIII and XIX can only be derived from such cross-links with the Kings of Judah as can be found, though there is also always the possibility of being able to date Ramesses II from purely Assyrian/Babylonian/Hattian links between Hattusilis and Tiglath-Pileser III or his successors (as may well be possible on the basis of leads given by Dr Bimson in Dating the wars of Seti I', which is a remarkably comprehensive article). The XY era of the Ninsianna tablet analysis offers an independent check on both the Egyptian and the Palestinian dates ...

Similarly, many psalms of the Scriptures commemorate the great discharges. "Then. the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken... ...
569. The Reliability of Biblical Synchronisms in Constructing an Historical Chronology from Rehoboam to Hezekiah [Journals] [SIS Review]
... length of each king's reign, the age at accession of the Judean kings and the corresponding regnal year of the king of Israel until Hezekiah's accession. It should therefore be a straightforward matter to construct a chronology for the reigns of the kings of Judah and Israel. A simple computation, however, not only fails to synchronise with Assyrian and Babylonian data but is also internally inconsistent. The chief difficulty is that there is no way of knowing whether or not co-regnal years have been included in the reign when the accession date to a co-regency is expressed in the co-regnal years of the other junior king. The date is not fixed and reign lengths can be telescoped or expanded. The ...
570. Letters [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... of resources out of Mesopotamia, and of the great temples of Babylon being left in a ruinous condition at the end of the Achaemenid period. The Herodotus passage from which Emmet quoted in C&CW 2004:4 , p. 35 told only of the payment of tribute to the Persians, not of any benefits being received by the Babylonians in return. The neglect of Babylon, after the reign of Xerxes I (i .e . for two-thirds of the Achaemenid period) is also a feature of accounts by more recent historians. Thus, for example, the index of Albert Olmstead's History of the Persian Empire refers to four pages under Darius I and Babylon', ...
