... survived only in Arabic texts that were later reintroduced into Christian Europe during the 13th century. [13] The map of Indicopleustes (a .k .a . Cosmas of Alexandria) is demonstrative of the backward way of thinking that threatened to overwhelm the theocracy of Medieval Europe. Cosmas boasted that the principal source for his inspiration was the Bible. Thus, he sacrificed geographical accuracy for scriptural purity. His world was a flat Earth situated at the center of the universe. At the very center was Palestine and the Holy Lands. Cosmas did not deny the existence of lands across the ocean from the Old World; he simply identified anything beyond the "Known World" of ...

... permafrost on which they spent their lives, causing them to become immersed in icy water, which then refroze within a matter of hours. Only a blast of heat from the sky could have had such an effect, a blast such as occurred at the Tunguska river." Hoyle claims that these events are contained in ancient myth and the Bible.8 Otto Muck, a distinguished German physicist, engineer, and inventor, states: "Yet they [the mammoths] were preserved, and remained preserved to this day in the arctic climate of modern Siberia. So the mammoths must have entered the cold storage conditions very soon after their death. This means that the critical transition ...

... ancients had also some strange fictions of silver which fell from heaven, and with which it had been attempted, under the Emperor Severus, to cover bronze coins." [17] An image of a rattlesnake with a tail of gold, and descended from heaven, was worshipped by the Inca as the god of riches. In the Bible (Job 21) it is said of the horrendous dragon Leviathan, "he shall strew gold under him like mire." And Chan reports that in ancient Mesoamerica "yellow was the color of gold, the teocuilatl or excrement of the gods."[18] The dragons that are the substance of most ancient myths and of ...

He contributed to the revival of the language of the Bible and the development of modern Hebrew by publishing (with Dr. I. 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 the Hebrew University at Jerusalem. He was ...

... the wine of the Eucharist..." [42] Since Passover, as a New Year festival, must also have been connected with Saturn, the eating of the paschal lamb must owe its origin to a similar practice. Bronson Feldman was also of the opinion that "the sacrifice [of the paschal lamb] appears in the Bible almost explicitly as a substitute for the firstborn male child of the house." [43] In telling the story of Jesus, however, his followers reversed the process.
