... of death" corresponds with the description of the Ermitage Papyrus: "None can live when the sun is veiled by clouds." At intervals the earth was lighted by conflagrations in the desert.(15) The phenomenon of gloom enduring for years impressed itself on the memory of the Twelve Tribes and is mentioned in many passages of the Bible: "Thou hast . . . covered us with the shadow of death" (Psalms 44:19); "The people that walked in darkness . . . in the land of the shadow of death" (Isaiah 9:2 ). The Israelites "wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way .. . hungry ...
532. ONElist : NewChronology [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... the New Chronology proposed by David Rohl to explore his framework of chronology discussing the various disciplines of science to understand and refine his proposals. While there are other alternate chronologies in circulation, our prime goal is discussion of David Rohl's chronological outline. This is not an Orthodox Chronology group, nor is it a free-for-all on New Chronologies. The Bible is used & accepted as a historical document. There are still so many exciting things to figure out just on Rohl's chronology and archaeology in the book "Pharaohs & Kings" that there simply is no time to get off track into other alternative chronologies. Beginner or scholar - if you are excited about David Rohl's work, I hope ...
533. Forget Amnesia [Journals] [Aeon]
... , not from something as dubious as trauma-induced amnesia. The astronomers who led the charge against Velikovsky in 1950 were students of nineteenth century scientists. This previous generation experienced first hand the confrontation between science and religion. Their acolytes, well versed in those superannuated pitched battles, were determined to maintain science as a religion-free zone. Someone quoting the Bible as scientific evidence? Come on, get rid of this guy! The denial that humans witnessed cosmic catastrophes constitutes an integral part of the contemporary worldview. Yet this entrenched judgment may perplex future generations of scholars. When the cultural structures that preserve our worldview are swept away by the next intellectual revolution, antipathy to cosmic catastrophism may no ...
534. The Most Incredible Story, Part 1 Venus Ch.1 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... fallen in very great numbers for they struck down more warriors than the swords of the adversaries. To have killed persons by the hundreds or thousands in the field, a cataract of stones must have fallen. Such a torrent of great stones would mean that a train of meteorites or a comet had struck our planet. The quotation in the Bible from the Book of Jasher is laconic and may give the impression that the phenomenon of the motionless sun and moon was local, seen only in Palestine between the valley of Ajalon and Gibeon. But the cosmic character of the prodigy is pictured in a thanksgiving prayer ascribed to Joshua: Sun and moon stood still in heaven, and Thou ...
535. Review: The Gentile Times Reconsidered: Chronology and Christ's Return, by Carl Olof Jonsson [Journals] [SIS Review]
... to have Jonsson's findings pounded into their heads. No one interested in ancient chronology can afford to ignore him. After describing in the Introduction the series of events that led eventually to his excommunication, Jonsson devotes Chapter 1 to a fascinating account of those who have predicted the end of the world - or whatever - on the basis of the Bible. Numbers like 1260 have been very popular, though they lose much of their punch as time goes by. I had been unaware that so many had engaged in these pursuits. The Jehovah's Witnesses are not alone. Chapter 2 is an overview of Biblical and Secular Chronology'. The next two chapters constitute the core of Jonsson's book ...
... attention on Paul Goodman's essay was his insight in comparing the experience of the persistent reaction of the survivors of Hiroshima with the experience and the subsequent attitude of the Israelites of the days of the Exodus, an event long passed into history; he actually starts his piece by referring to Martin Buber's book on Moses: ". .. the Bible story cannot be taken literally yet is not unhistorical: something, happened that was, to those people, super-natural or crazy, and the account we have received was their attempt to cope with the experience, to regain their wits, to reconstitute themselves in the world that had been transformed". This parallel was not drawn by Professor ...

538. Editorial C&AH 9:1 [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Velikovsky's approach to catastrophism. The second article is by Dorothea Kenny, who teaches at California State University at Fullerton. Her work is on the mythology of Ireland, where catastrophic motifs surprisingly enough seem to underlie many ancient stories. The last article is by Michael Sanders, continuing his historical and archaeological revision with Ramses III as Shishak of the Bible. Catastrophism and Ancient History continues to grow. It is getting requests from scholars around the world for individual articles from our recent issues.

539. Natural Evolution And Revolution. Ch.2 To Know And Not To Know (Mankind in Amnesia) [Velikovsky]
... repeatedly interrupted the flow of natural history. Darwin followed Charles Lyell, who was a lawyer by education and who argued the theory of uniformity not as a savant, but as a barrister; it was his book which Darwin read when he travelled on the H.M .S . Beagle and which, as he acknowledged, was his Bible. Obviously there was a psychological need in Darwin to shut his eyes to contrary evidence, but also a similar need in both the academic and the lay society to get rid of the natural revolution by embracing natural evolution. One wonders at the avidity displayed by scientists in the acceptance of the Darwinian theory. None of the arguments that ...
