... the heavens. And from it a stone' was cut out without any visible agency, whereupon the whole image soon crumbled into pieces. These the wind carded away like the chaff of the summer threshing floors'. And the stone became a great mountain, and filled the whole Earth'. Significantly enough the greatest cosmological book of the Bible, the Revelation of John, contains the words: A door was opened in heaven. ' This heaven', ouranos, is descriptive of the great covering' disk of the Tertiary satellite. The word thyra, door', stands for any kind of opening or hole. The third important account, and probably the best one ...

... of an earthquake. If they stood on the northern banks of the Dead Sea they would have been on subsoil which would liquify during an earthquake and the whole area would have slipped into the sea, leaving no archaeological remains. Fires could also have started in underground oil deposits, accounting for the rain of brimstone and fire depicted in the bible. Volcanic trigger New Scientist 8.11.97, p. 20 A sudden dramatic climate shift, with huge temperature rises 55 Myrs ago, may have been triggered by volcanic eruptions in the Caribbean which changed the atmosphere and cooled the surface waters, altering ocean currents and eventually caused the release of methane hydrates, causing greenhouse warming ...
883. The Date Of The Loss Of Atlantis (The Atlantis Myth) [Books]
... time. The whole passage, Luke ii 22-39, is fraught with a mass of dark, forgotten meanings, and the matter is made more difficult still, because the `myth' of Christ, that is, the mythological trappings with which the historical Jesus has been overlaid -has been explored only very little. Whatever real historical background the Bible story may have, the reader may concur with me if I interpret the superimposed mythological material as follows: the `presentation of the Lord' stands for the `first appearance of the new world-master, the Moon'; the aged Simeon (whose name means: `the hearkener forward') who cannot die before he has seen ...
884. Recent Developments in Near Eastern Archaeology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... , we seem to have Maskhuta dated too early by at least 50 years, probably much more since we have no reason as yet to assume that the Thasian amphora is early in its series (it is unpublished) or that Greek pottery is correctly dated. Maskhuta is summarised by its excavator, J. S. Holladay, in Anchor Bible Dictionary Vol. 4 (ABD 4), pp. 588-592, and in greater detail in Cities of the Delta, part 3: Tell el-Maskhuta, 1982. ABD 4, p. 590, states that two successive destructions probably mark a second poorly documented campaign of Nebuchadrezzar in 568 B.C . and the Persian Conquest of ...
885. Planet of the Greeks by Meres J. Weche (Book Review). C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... . The 3rd Dynasty (N ) was contemporary with 2nd (S ); Khnum-Khupi built Gizeh pyramids and Sphinx which symbolised the Khemetic deity Atum Kheprer who protected the pyramids and the king's ka. 4th Dynasty kings usurped this and took credit for them. III Creation Weche notices a similarity between the Khemetic Heleopolitan Theology and that of the Hebrew Bible. The work of the six days' is expanded, via Enoch and the Jewish Aggada, into the Seven Heavens, Earths and Ages. God is said to have destroy the earth using the planets 6 times. We live in the Seventh Creation. Weche gives his dates for the catastrophes ending the Ages: 2730, 2130, ...

887. The Wayward Sun [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... refusal to cooperate and so the tribe came to be known as the Pima.15 In fact, "A'a'tam" means "people." Part of the A'a'tam's history was carried across the centuries in an age-old myth of a great flood that had once overwhelmed the earth. Their tale of the flood included an event absent from the frontiersmen's Bible. Using the symbolism of a magical baby created by an evil deity, the myth told how the screaming child "shook the earth," catapulting the world into the horrors of the great flood.16 The A'a'tam now feared that the sky was insecure. Corrective measures were called for and the Earth Doctor created a grey spider that ...

... ocean. Past Strength New Scientist 10.3 .01, p. 27 New methods of measuring the strength of the Earth's past magnetic field reveals that it was three times stronger than it is now when the dinosaurs were around. Sound From Space New Scientist 6.1 .01, pp. 14-19 Noisy meteors are mentioned in the Bible and there are plenty of modern reports of sounds heard from both meteors and auroras. It is suggested that it must be due to electromagnetic radiation in the form of very low frequency radio waves which are turned into sound by a variety of transducers such as wires, pine needles or even the listener's dry hair. The radio waves could ...

... incorporate the ratio of 210:400 that is reported in the Shitah Mekubbezet (7 ): the sidereal period of .593 is 210/400 of the later sidereal period of 1.1295. (This source is discussed in greater detail in a separate article in this issue, in relation to the vital statistics of persons in the Bible.) Velikovsky mentions this Midrash from the Shitah Mekubbezet, but he is reluctant to accept the exact ratio of 210:400 (8 ).

890. Nor Heaven Nor Earth Have Been at Peace: The Contemporary Foundations of Shakespeare's Cataclysmic Imagery (Concluded) [Journals] [Kronos]
... the sea became blood.... Then the third Angel blewe the trumpet, & there fell a great starre from heauen burning like a torche.... And the name of the starre is called wormwood: therefore the third parte of the waters became wormewood. - (Revelation 6:13, 8:7-12, Geneva Bible) We should find proof, therefore, that unusual celestial phenomena were very frequent in Shakespeare's day. Such proof is readily at hand, and it is no accident that the rise in Elizabethan astrology coincided with an amazing number of comets and eclipses of the Sun and Moon that occurred roughly between the period 1577-1596, in which at least ...
