... year around 3450 B.P . was the most devastating since the fall of Saturn; 1453 B.C . may be the exact year by present retrospective reckoning; the superb work of Velikovsky guides us in this as it does elsewhere in these pages [4 ]. It was a year when the plagues struck Egypt, as the Bible recounts, and the exodus of some Hebrew and Egyptian survivors occurred. Every city in the world must have been shaken and damaged. Tidal floods swept over every coastal culture. Volcanoes erupted. The Earth was scorched by lightning, covered with dust, ashes, gravel, obnoxious and noxious gases, struck repeatedly by slow-speed meteorites, and ...
542. Ebla and Velikovsky [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Islamic tradition they were identified with Damascus. Beyond the Ebla references and the Koran there is no other mention of this triad of cities.8 Jerusalem As in so many cases of controversy over whether a person or place is mentioned in the Ebla tablets, one of these concerns Jerusalem. Velikovsky had pointed out in Ages in Chaos that the Bible indicates that before David's capture Jerusalem was called Jebus or Salem. When the El Amarna tablets refer to the city of Jerusalem, consequently, it was supportive of placing the Ebla record after David's time. It was already known, however, that the Execration tablets of a much earlier period (The Middle Kingdom) called the city Jerusalem ...
543. About the SIS. How to Join [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... Act, 1960) - registration number 286264 About SIS Internet Digest The SIS was founded in 1974 in response to a growing interest in the works of modern catastrophists, notably the highly controversial Dr Immanuel Velikovsky. In his books Worlds in Collision, Earth in Upheaval and Ages in Chaos he argued that the ancient myths and sources such as the Bible contained records of planetary catastrophes in the Earth's history and, based on this, he suggested that geology, cosmology and ancient history should be reconsidered. In cosmology he proposed that electricity played a much larger role than in the orthodox scheme and that Venus in particular was a young planet. In ancient history, he proposed that the orthodox ...
544. A Catastrophic Calendar [Books] [de Grazia books]
... prevails among the scientists who are first to leave the fold of uniformitarianism. Of these, certain writers ascribe the catastrophes to extraterrestrial sources, such as Urey and Ager, others to internal stresses of the Earth. At the other extreme of catastrophism would be scientists such as Donald Patten, who holds closely to a time schedule permitted by the Bible. Calculating back from Biblical references, he hypothesizes the Universal Deluge of Noah (caused by a near passing astral body) at 2800 B.C . and then musters as much scientific evidence as he can to show that this is possible and provable. Patten also matches up other catastrophic references in the sacred scriptures to a set of ...
545. The el-Amarna Letters (Concluded) (Ages in Chaos) [Velikovsky]
... he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria" (II Kings 9:14);8 on this front Jehu was anointed by the messenger of Elisha (II Kings 9:4 ). Josephus Flavius gave the name of the place for which Ahab battled with the Syrians as Aramatha in Galadene.9 Ramoth of the Bible and Aramatha of Josephus is Iarimuta or Rimuta of the el-Amarna letters. The battles and wars waged for this place in the years when Samaria suffered from famine are well explained by the letters: the high land of Gilead was the breadbasket of the entire region, and famine had not touched it. Ramoth in Gilead is prominently mentioned in ...

547. Ancient History Study Group, September 1993 [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Stenring's The Enclosed Garden, published in Sweden in 1966 but currently unobtainable in Britain. A few pages of Stenring's numbers and diagrams published in 1952 are available in the British Library. David Roth introduced Gerhard Larsson's The Secret System, 1973 (also in the BL), which follows Stenring's ideas closely. Larsson posits that dates recorded in the Bible were devised in c230BC, using a system of three different calendars: one of 354 days, one of 365 (solar) and one of 365 ¼ days (standard). He proposes not that these individual calendars had been used historically but that the author(s ) of the system manipulated historical datings in such a way that ...

549. Five Midianite Cities: A Response to Dwardu Cardona's "The Cities of the Plain" [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... to synchronize ancient Hebrew history with the rise and fall of material culture in the archaeological record. [3 ] In the particular case of the five sites under discussion there seem to be only two possible explanations for their destruction and abandonment. My own explanation is that this was part of the Israelite conquest of Canaan which, if we follow Bible chronology, occurred c. 1400 B.C . Cardona's explanation is that these sites were the ones destroyed by the catastrophe of Genesis 19, usually dated c. 2000 B.C . In this writer's opinion Cardona has chosen the more spectacular and attractive explanation, but at the same time the one with the least evidence to support ...
550. Untitled [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... C .; connecting that date with the period given in this text establishes the Exodus at c. 1450 B.C . I have explored the arguments of these two main views which put the Exodus in the fifteenth or thirteenth centuries in a summary article, "Exodus, Date of," in the revised edition of the International Standard Bible Encyclopedia (Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1982). While the attempt there was to be as objective as possible about the two proposals, the perceptive reader will note that the fifteenth-century date is favored. In recent times an extensive challenge has been brought against the traditional chronology employed by Egyptologists. The thrust of this challenge is to suggest ...
