... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History VI:2 (July 1984) Home | Issue Contents INTERACTION The Sacred Mountain Charles H. Seitz Immanuel Velikovsky proposed that Saturn was in a stationary position at the North Pole until the time of the Deluge, when it became a nova. Behind Saturn was Jupiter and the rest of the planets. The explosion not only dumped water on the Earth and for seven days became a bright light that radiated terrestrial life, but caused Venus to emerge from the red spot on Jupiter and begin an orbit that, at the time of the Exodus, threatened collision with the Earth- diverted only at the last minute by Mars. Various planets threatened ...
222. The Caves Of England. Ch.2 Revolution (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... NOT AVAILABLE Contents The Caves Of England In 1823, William Buckland, professor of geology at the University of Oxford, published his Reliquiae diluvianae (Relics of the Flood), with the subtitle, Observations on the organic remains contained in caves, fissures, and diluvial gravel, and on other geological phenomena, attesting the action of an universal deluge. Buckland was one of the great authorities on geology of the first half of the nineteenth century. In a cave in Kirkdale in Yorkshire, eighty feet above the valley, under a floor covering of stalagmites, he found teeth and bones of elephants, rhinoceroses, hippopotami, horses, deer, tigers (the teeth of which were ...
223. Vox Popvli [Journals] [Aeon]
... So good of you to remind me of my subscription. However, since AEON seems to subscribe to Talbott's theory, rather than to Velikovsky's, it would only aggravate me. Talbott's theory is not based on celestial mechanics, as he himself has said. I am not interested in it for this reason. But if Velikovsky's work on the deluge- Saturn and the Flood and Jupiter of the Thunderbolt- should ever, by some miracle, be published, I would appreciate it if you'd let me know. End of the Century Earl R. Milton, from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, writes: About the date of the turn of the century: Contrary to popular belief ...
224. The New Science of Immanuel Velikovsky [Journals] [Kronos]
... not just one person or even a handful of people, but an entire tribe or culture. It must make sense of a problem or mystery in the common experience of a community of people. The first twelve chapters of Genesis, for instance, bear little resemblance to anything that is likely to have happened historically, except perhaps for the Deluge. Yet, this work attempts to answer fundamental questions-how the world began, how evil, suffering, murder, and the discord produced by language differences came about -in ways that speak meaningfully to the common existential concerns, not merely of one culture, the Israelites, but of generations of men and cultures across two millennia. Myth, ...
225. The Great Father [Books]
... creator-king and his original age of abundance was far broader than any local tradition. And the story was not limited to Egypt. According to the theologian and historian Eusebius (who relates the account of the Babylonian priest-historian Berossus), the ancient tribes of Chaldea owed their civilization to a powerful and benevolent figure named Oannes, who ruled before the Deluge. Prior to Oannes, the tribes lived "without order, like the beasts." But the new god-king, who issued from the sea, instructed mankind in writing and various arts, the formation of cities, and the founding of temples. "He also taught them the use of laws, of bounds and divisions, also ...
226. Thoth Vol II, No. 10: June 15, 1998 [Journals] [Thoth]
... Eden, the Golden Age, the eternal spring, and the timeless time would refer to events in the sky, not on earth. CARDONA: In my opinion, they refer to both. AMY: Drawing any conclusions regarding terrestrial conditions would be unfounded. CARDONA: Not necessarily. As but one example, think about this: The Deluge is said to have drowned Earth in its waters. "Earth," here, can be understood as the CELESTIAL earth. But what was there that was seen in the sky during this event that was interpreted as water. Why water? Fire (light mixed with darkness) would have been more appropriate had the event been strictly ...
227. Planets in the Bible: I -- The Cosmology of Job [Journals] [SIS Review]
... disaster is clearly described; see the "shadow of death" discussed by Dr Velikovsky (46). ii) ( Kesil/Saturn) "calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth" - Saturn was not active during the Exodus disaster: this more likely harks back to the Deluge. Further on in Chapter 5, Amos again introduces the subject of the period of wandering in the wilderness for 40 years (5 :25), when "ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch [literally the tabernacle of your king] and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves ...
228. H. H. Hess and My Memoranda [Journals] [Pensee]
... state his belief that water in quantity would be found under the lunar surface. I remember how he showed me a winding rill or rift photographed on the moon and wished me to agree with him that it was caused by running water. I discussed with him my views, namely that the moon was once showered by water of the universal Deluge, but that all of it or almost all of it dissociated before the later cosmic catastrophes. The face of the moon we see was formed in those later catastrophes. On May 19 I wrote down a few of my advanced claims concerning the moon and handed it to Hess' research assistant, who strongly supported the view that large ...
229. The Creation of the Earth -- the First Account [Books]
... during the later stages of the disintegration of the former satellite the waters of the terrestrial oceans, which had beers held in the tropical zone in the form of a girdle-tide', had started to ebb off to the north and south, inundating considerable land-areas. After the complete breakdown all the waters of the girdle-tide surged off in a great deluge. For a considerable time yet the redistributed waters were anything but calm because the much-distorted geoid was only gradually regaining a more spherical shape and the seismic shocks kept agitating the waters considerably. This state of diluvial turbulence was alluded to in the tdhu passage of verse 2a; the subsequent state of quasi-rest is described in the tehom passage of ...
230. Father Kugler's Falling Star [Journals] [Kronos]
... time those who live upon the mountains and in dry and lofty places are more liable to destruction than those who dwell by rivers or on the sea-shore. And from this calamity we are preserved by the liberation of the Nile, who is our never failing saviour. When, on the other hand, the gods purge the earth with a deluge of water, the survivors in your country are herdsmen and shepherds who dwell on the mountains, but those who, like you, live in cities are carried by the rivers into the sea. Whereas in this land, neither then nor at any other time, does the water come down from above on the fields, having always ...
