... this in its proper place. Before we enter into the discussion of the creation accounts in the Book of Genesis, let me stress that in order to get at their factual content it is not permissible to consider them by themselves and judge them solely on their own merits. Nor is it permissible to consider them only in connection with the Babylonian story, in spite of their probably close relationship with it. The matter of the first chapters of the Book of Genesis consists of cosmogonic myths and these should be compared with all similar myths which have come down to us, no matter from which people in which part of the Earth. The creation of the world' is necessarily ...
602. Isaiah, Part 2 Mars Ch.1 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... and Joel, is explained by the Talmud5 as an earthshock, the field of action of which is the entire world, whereas a regular earthquake is of local character. Such a shaking of the earth, disturbed in its rotation, is vizualised also as a "shaking of the sky," an expression found in the Prophets, in Babylonian texts, and in other literary sources. Then the prophecy was fulfilled. Amid the catastrophe Isaiah raised his voice: "Fear, and the pit, and the snare [pitch6] are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth . . . for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth do ...
603. March 23rd, Part 2 Mars Ch.2 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... I found in Jean Gattefossé and Claudius Roux, Bibliographie de I'Atlantide et des questions connexes (Lyon, 1926), under No. 1184, but these authors also were unable to trace the publication. Cf. P. Jensen, Kosmologie, III, R561, 5a: "A great star fell." Jupiter was known to the Babylonians as the "great star." How large was the star? Jensen asked. 15 Tractate Sanhedrin 96a. ...
604. Jonsson's 'Gentile Times' (Letter) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... years, then his son Naba-ahi-idina for 38 years, then his son Itti-Marduk-balata for 27 years up to year 1 of Darius I. Hence the company records cover the 83 year period from Nebuchadnezzar up to the first year of Darius Hystaspes. These dated records agree perfectly with all the other lines of evidence, such as king lists, the Babylonian Chronicles, and royal inscriptions. This evidence collectively does not support Velikovsky's arguments [1 ] that Neriglissar ruled before Nebuchadrezzar. It also proves that the Persians followed the Neo-Babylonians, and were not contemporary with them. I hope this incontrovertible evidence, offered in such clear and scholarly detail by Olof Jonsson, will not be ignored by those ...
605. Forum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... (Ginzberg, Vol III, p. 20). More commonly it is put that Michael was the guardian angel of Israel, although there exist lesser traditions that have Gabriel or both angels as guardians (see Ginzberg, Index, under the respective names). Perhaps the reason for this variation in opinion lies in the fact that the Babylonian Haggadah prefers the angel Gabriel, whereas the Palestinian Haggadah prefers Michael (Ginzberg, VI, p. 362). What conclusions are we to draw? Clearly, we are not to jump to the conclusion that Patten et al. were correct in their unsupported assertion that Mars caused all the events from Sodom to Hezekiah. The archangels ...

608. A Hypothetical Ancient Telescope [Journals] [Horus]
... it is certain that, if the shadows of lunar mountains actually were observed, they are several standard deviations from the visual acuity of the human eye alone. In short, such an observation is impossible without a telescope. The Full Moon as seen from space [NASA] Ishtar with a crescent above her head as shown on an ancient Babylonian chalice Venus There are many ancient observations of Venus as a crescent and symbolic depictions with crescents of the goddesses representing Venus. Personified as Ishtar or Astarte, crescents appear everywhere temples or votive structures are found. Astarte bore a crescented staff. Even in the Judeo-Christian tradition, Satan is also called Lucifer, the "bearer of light. ...

610. Sky Dragons and Celestial Serpents by Alastair McBeath (Book Review). C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... astronomical studies of long barrows and hill figures in Britain [1 ], Spica was a common source of alignment. It is very bright. It is also positioned very near the tail of Hydra. In Assyrian and Akkadian texts Spica is called the propitious one of seed' and can be translated as ear of wheat'. In the Babylonian MUL.APIN Spica is a furrow' which indicates Hydra was involved in ploughing the sky, or the god-comet, and perhaps in actually seeding the stars, a term equitable in describing a disintegrating comet. Chapter 6 is titled Living Sky Serpents and he applies this term to comets, meteors and some shapes taken by the aurora borealis ...
