651. Velikovsky And Planetary Catastrophe [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... strange consistency of planetary mythology one must ultimately ask the question asked more than 45 years ago by Immanuel Velikovsky, author of World in Collision. At the heart of Velikovsky's controversial thesis was a seemingly outrageous idea. He claimed that planets, moving on quite different courses than observed today, formerly disturbed the motions of the Earth and caused great destruction to ancient nations. These extraordinary events, Velikovsky claimed, are recorded in ancient chronicles, myths and rites around the world, sources that are simply incomprehensible in terms of celestial motions today. Velikovsky contended that the planet Venus, just a few thousand years ago, possessed a spectacular, comet-like "tail" and its orbit intersected that ...

... . I take it that this passage was originally a reference to the unsuccessful close conjunctions of the planet Luna which preceded the capture. According to Isa. xxi. 8, the heavens were most anxiously scanned at the conjunction times, by day and by night, for the `grievous vision' of a `treacherous dealer' and `destructive spoiler' (Isa. xxi 2). According to Jer. i 13f, the dreaded phenomenon looked somewhat like a `seething pot', and when it appeared in the heavens `an evil broke forth out of the north upon all the inhabitants of the land'. These calamities happened periodically, Jer. li 46, ...

... power of God." Then said God to the Angel of Hell, "Go and show hell unto Moses, and how the wicked are treated there." Immediately he went with Moses, walking before him like a pupil before his master, and thus they entered hell together, and Moses saw men undergoing torture by the Angels of Destruction: some of the sinners were suspended by their eyelids, some by their ears, some by their hands, and some by their tongues, and they cried bitterly. And women were suspended by their hair and by their breasts, and in other ways, all on chains of fire. Nasargiel explained: "These hang by their ...

... Egyptian plagues. The suppressors ruled between the Middle and New Kingdom and were called Hyksos ( Amalekites ) . The archetypical conception of a Typhon's brood (children of the dragon Apop) preceded the Manethonian confusion of Hyksos and Jews. "The Cacodemon Typhon with his brood is already known to us from the Heracles myths as a personification of the destructive and ruinous elements in nature, who are subdued to world harmony by the divine fighter." (39) At whatever date the equation of Typhon's (dragon's-serpent's) brood with the Jews took place, by the time of the spread of the New Testament, we find this conception already firmly established. Thus, Jewish scholars are called ...

... it to be genuine' but most modern Egyptologists do not accept it as being factual'. In spending a lifetime as an Egyptologist and also for many years being involved in British archaeology, I have gained through the latter a full understanding of dangers in the explorations into stone, so am fully aware of the risk of poisoning from a destructive radon gas which has probably been undisturbed by excavation for years. Do Egyptologists receive adequate medical advice during their course work? It seems highly unlikely. In the past, if people were taken ill or unwell during the clearing of a tomb containing granite and dust, (such as that of Tutankhamun) this indisposition could have simply been ...

... very unlikely mechanism. If the cross-sectional diameter of this column was relatively small, it would not have been visible from a distance. On the other hand, had this diameter been such to enable the visibility of the column from all over Earth's northern hemisphere, such a vortex would have caused a continuous storm all over that hemisphere. The destructive quality of this vortex would certainly have been mentioned by the ancients. Besides, a vortex does not match the description presented by Talbott. [113] The most important attributes Talbott assigns to the polar column are the following: a column of fire and light; a golden mountain; silver mountain; a mountain composed of a fiery ...

658. Confusion Breeds on Assumptions [Journals] [SIS Review]
... | Issue Contents Confusion Breeds on Assumptions G. P. Williams The author proposes that there were two distinct major catastrophes – the Deluge, which ended the Paradisical Age, and the Flood, which ended the Golden Age and ushered in the Modern Age. He uses geological and mythical evidence to show that the first catastrophe was due to the destruction of a world mountain and the second was due to an axial tilt. My investigation into ancient records and mythology was prompted by my interest in the land-forms of the world and from the geomorphological information conveyed in their shapes. While the erosion and decay of the land-forms within a continent are the objects of geomorphology, continental land-forms in their ...

... this spiral-bound, soft-cover notebook, the author presents his case in black and white illustrations, depicting aspects of the physical model he espouses together with its ancient symbolic references, each of which is accompanied by explanatory text. Basing his analysis on universal mythological themes, Talbott concludes that the Golden Age of the Gods, as well as its final destruction, corresponds to events that actually occurred and were etched in human memory like ancient software. Talbott deduces that major changes in the planetary order brought about Earth-threatening catastrophes. According to his model, the first civilizations originated in ritual practices honoring, imitating, and re-living these dramatic celestial events. His assertion, following Velikovsky, is that the ...

Introduction In Worlds in Collision [1 ] Velikovsky introduced a catastrophic scenario, in which the planets Venus and Mars moved on highly eccentric orbits that crossed the Earth's and caused catastrophic destruction which was witnessed by man's early ancestors. In 1950, when his book was published, the Space Age had not started and digital computing was in its infancy. It was believed that the orbits of all the known astronomic bodies were stable and had existed for a very long time. Under these circumstances the leading astronomers of that time ...
