... material was quite logically taken from the vanquished monster, Ymir, Tiamat, or, in our case, Tohu It had caused the demolition of the old vault; it was now used to furnish the material for the new one. With the help of the Babylonian parallel and the remnants of the dragon-conquest myth scattered in the literature of the Bible, we may now reconstruct verses 6-8 as follows: God heaved up [therefore heaven'] one half of the body of Tohu, which he had split, and used it as a safeguard [is this the final sense of rakia, firmament?] against any further cataracts of the waters of the ocean that is above. ...
362. Discussion on Velikovsky, Victor Clube's book [Articles]
... in which we equate the Sumerians of the third millennium with the Chaldaeans of which a vast amount of written material and not a single trace of their own culture have been found, so we equate the Sumerians with the Chaldaeans of the first millennium for the very simple reason which was neglected by all of ancient historians and archaeologists who were all Bible fundamentalists: If we talk today of Old Babylonian civilisations, we do it for the reason that in the beginning we needed a high civilisation before the dates of Abraham, the Hebrew patriarch, and since all these fellows who dealt with Ancient Babylonia read the Bible first and read that Abraham came from Ur of the Chaldees, as it's ...

... 27 years of his reign - so R-J s 40 years becomes a tight fit. What, then, is the monumental evidence for a great conquest in Ramesses' 40th year (the 5th year of Rehoboam)? David Rohl Replies: In order to answer this question of regnal years we should first look at the data given in the Bible and relate it to Ramesses II. 1 Kings, 3 states that Solomon took his Egyptian wife before the completion of work on the Temple of Jerusalem. The Temple was completed in Year 11, therefore we have a terminal date for the marriage. From a point before Year 11 of Solomon to Year 5 of Rehoboam is thus an ...
364. Bookshelf [Journals] [SIS Review]
... viruses in space has been able to accept the possibility of deliberately-constructed spores; and an article offered to Nature, we are told, has suffered the ignominy of rejection. Against all this, the "cosmic catastrophe" involved - a "flare-up" in the Sun - seems positively tame .. . - R. M. L. Bible Convention K. M. Kenyon: THE BIBLE AND RECENT ARCHAEOLOGY (London: Colonnade, 1978). JOHN BIMSON Dame Kathleen Kenyon's important excavations at Samaria, Jericho and Jerusalem, and her contribution to the development of precise stratigraphical analysis, made her one of the most important Palestinian archaeologists, and her death in August 1978 was a ...
365. The Hamon-Gabriel-Mars Connection (Forum) [Journals] [Kronos]
... " can also be translated as "sound". "At the sound of the noise the people fled" would therefore make for a better translation even if it renders the verse somewhat tautological. "Qol", however, is not the debated word. Actually Forrest should have paid greater attention to Robert Young's Analytical Concordance to the Holy Bible on which he relied for his Hebrew translation. There the word "hamon" is translated inter alia as "multitude".(2 ) And it is "multitude", rather than "noise", that is meant by "tumult" in the King James' translation of "H /hamon". Thus the verse ...
366. The Jewish Science of Immanuel Velikovsky [Articles]
... the age of seventy-eight, he ended his years in the land of Israel, he devoted his life, his fortune, his peace of mind, all that he had, to the realization of what was once an idea, the renaissance of the Jewish people in its ancient land. He contributed to the revival of the language of the Bible and the development of modern Hebrew by publishing (with Dr. J. Klausner as editor) collective works on Hebrew philology, and to the revival of Jewish scientific thought by publishing, through his foundation, Scripta Universitatis, to which scientists of many countries contributed and thus laid the groundwork for Hebrew University at Jerusalem. He was the ...
367. Freud and Velikovsky Part I [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... the Egyptologists, so confident that the Nile country had never contained any document describing it? He resolved to look for himself among the records of the Pharaohs and their scribes. Those who have done likewise, who have scrutinized the Lamentation of Ipuwer, the Prophecy of Neferrohu, the ruined shrine-stone of El Arish, in the light of the Bible without fear or favor, will know how Balboa felt when he beheld the Pacific Ocean from the Darien peak. Toward the end of September 1939 Freud took the morphine that put him to death. A fear which had tortured him at odd moments for over eighty years, the dread of being blinded in one eye, drove him to ...
368. Chronological Implications of a Proper Identification of the Labyrinth: Part II [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Egypt and the Near East, beginning in the middle of the 8th century BC. On numerous points Herodotus substantially agrees with biblical sources and epigraphic material that elucidate the period after c750 BC. Modern chronologies of the Saite period differ by only a few years from the chronology deducible from Herodotus. Herodotus had Ethiopians in Egypt about when both the Bible and Assyrian inscriptions suggest Ethiopians were in Egypt (although I must confess to doubts about the dating of the Assyrian material). Herodotus places the decline of the Assyrian empire and the destruction of Nineveh at about the same time as does the Old Testament. In turn, both Herodotus and the Bible appear to be consistent with Babylonian epigraphic ...
369. Assyria: is the Conventional Profile Believable? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... appears to be good cause for scholarly support for the conventional concept. However, when we follow into the reigns of Shalmaneser V and Sargon II, those who expect to find the same harmony are in for a sad awakening - mainly because annals for the Shalmaneser conventionally called V' are non-existent. The Limmu List [18] and the Bible [19] contain what remains of the exploits of this apparently aggressive, effective and short lived Assyrian. These are the six entries attributed to the conventional regnal years of Shalmaneser based on Luckenbill. Date King Year Limmu, Eponym Given Historical Event 727 TP3 19 Bel-harran-bel -usur Against Damascus Shl 5 1 Shalmaneser takes his throne 726 2 Marduk-bel-usur ...
370. Floods and Tides [Books] [de Grazia books]
... tidal) waters continued to rise. Next, 74 days were occupied in the "going and decreasing." Not until another 40 days passed did Noah send out a raven. Then 21 days were taken to send out three successive doves. A further 86 days occurred before the total experience ended. Thus 371 days passed. If the Bible is historically accurate, even only generally so, a tidal catastrophe is depicted in which rains played a minor role. Even granting that all the overrunning of the land and climbing of mountains was accomplished by tides, there remains in mind a question respecting the origin of the oceanic waters. The continental slopes and shelves were permanently inundated at ...
