... of his career that the desert would be the scene of his activity, which not only came true in the present order of things, but also will be true in the latter days, when he will appear in the desert again, to lead into the promised land the generation, arisen from their graves, that he brought forth from Egyptian bondage.[112] Wandering through the desert, he reached Mount Horeb, which is called by six names, each conveying one of its distinctions. It is "the mountain of God," wherein the Lord revealed His law; "Basban," for God "came there"; "a mountain of humps," ...
372. Objections to the Revised Chronology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... confirming Velikovsky's reconstruction, they tend to refute it and it is important to note that not only are radiocarbon dates lower than the orthodox chronology demands in cases where Velikovsky differs from the orthodox chronology, but also in cases where Velikovsky agrees with the orthodox chronology. Thus, according to Velikovsky (in agreement with orthodox chronology), the 26th Egyptian dynasty began about 663 B.C .: however, a radiocarbon dating of an object of the 25th-26th dynasties gave the date 280 B.C . ( 130), about 400 years too late. Again, according to Velikovsky (again in agreement with orthodox chronology) the Pharaoh Nectanebo I ruled about 380 BC, but a ...

FROM THE CAPTIVITY OF THE TEN TRIBES TO THE FIRST YEAR OF CYRUS.CHAPTER 1.HOW SENNACHERIB MADE AN EXPEDITION AGAINST HEZEKIAH; WHAT THREATENINGS RABSHAKEH MADE TO HEZEKIAH WHEN SENNACHERIB WAS GONE AGAINST THE EGYPTIANS; HOW ISAIAH THE PROPHET ENCOURAGED HIM; HOW SENNACHERIB HAVING FAILED OF SUCCESS IN EGYPT, RETURNED THENCE TO JERUSALEM; AND HOW UPON HIS FINDING HIS ARMY DESTROYED, HE RETURNED HOME; AND WHAT BEFELL HIM A LITTLE AFTERWARD. 1.

... in it) has not substantially changed. B. The method depends also on the condition that during the same period of time the influx of cosmic rays or energy particles coming from the stars and the sun has not suffered substantial variations. To check on the method before applying it on various historical and paleontological material, Libby chose material of Egyptian archaeology, under the assumption that no other historical material from over 2,000 years ago is so secure as to its absolute dating. When objects of the Old Kingdom and Middle Kingdom of Egypt yielded carbon dates that appeared roughly comparable with the historical dates, Libby made his method known. With initial large margin of error and anything ...
375. Yosef Hayim Yerushalmi, "Freud's Moses" [Journals] [Aeon]
... Freud was obsessed with Moses is generally acknowledged (interestingly enough, Freud had earlier been fixated upon the figure of Athena(1 )) . His overwhelming feelings of guilt and awe before Michelangelo's Moses, his compulsion to publish Moses and Monotheism despite its controversial nature, are well-known. What is less well-known is that Freud was similarly obsessed with Egyptian culture.(2 ) Beginning about 1900, Freud's preoccupation with Egypt increased to the point where it influenced many of his later works. Moses and Monotheism, finally published as a whole in 1939, represents the culmination of meditations which had been fermenting for over three decades: The desire to understand the roots of advanced culture (Greek ...
376. A Chronology for the Eighteenth Dynasty [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ) 1977 G. J. Gammon Geoffrey Gammon has an Honours B.A . in History from London University and is currents studying for a Diploma in Archaeology at the Institute of Archaeology, London University. A crucial test of the revised chronology presented by Velikovsky in "Ages in Chaos" is whether the new synchronisms adduced between the XVIIIth Egyptian Dynasty and the Israelite Monarchy and Divided Kingdom form an internally consistent sequence. Using the latest available data, Geoffrey Gammon has devised a working model for the chronology of the XVIIIth Dynasty that accords with the chronology of Israel drawn up by Biblical scholars. The reconstruction of the chronology of the ancient Near East is a formidable task, fraught ...
377. The Legends of the Jews: Volume II - Joseph [Books]
... was a simple young man, one of the despised race of the Hebrews, slave to the captain of the guard, and he interpreted our dreams to us, and it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was. Therefore, O king, stay the hand of the hangmen, let them not execute the Egyptians. The slave I speak of is still in the dungeon, and if the king will consent to summon him hither, he will surely interpret thy dreams."[166] JOSEPH BEFORE PHARAOH "Accursed are the wicked that never do a wholly good deed." The chief butler described Joseph contemptuously as a "slave" in ...
378. The Lion Gate at Mycenae [Journals] [Pensee]
... . Sometimes, this can only be ascertained through a comparison with objects of known or supposedly known date from other cultures. In the case of Mycenaean art, as with so much of ancient art, Egypt has served as a primary source for the establishment of an absolute chronology (13). "Of course, any shortening of the Egyptian or the other chronologies [involves] a corresponding shortening of Minoan chronology, and hence of the chronology of other Mediterranean cultures and indeed of the chronology of the whole of prehistoric Europe (14)." Attempts to substantiate an absolute chronology through the use of the "Carbon 14" method (15) have not always proven satisfactory ...

... to be adaptable from one restricted area and culture, the Judaic, to several grand civilizations - Byzantine, West European, Islamic, and American. The Ark of the Covenant, "the Vehicle of Yahweh," symbolized, as well as played a critical part in, the whole story. Its electrical functions represented the achievements of the Egyptian theocratic establishment from which Moses, one of its luminaries and scientific managers, was expelled. The Ark was the centerpiece around which the aggregate of survivors of the flight from Egypt were organized into a new nation. The Ark gave voice to the new god, Yahweh, distinguishing him from related old gods, and lent credibility to his ...
380. Hammurabi and the Revised Chronology [Journals] [Kronos]
... even several decades later. A connecting link was actually found between the First Babylonian Dynasty and the Twelfth Dynasty of Egypt, the great dynasty of the Middle Kingdom. At Platanos on Crete, a seal of the Hammurabi type was discovered in a tomb together with Middle Minoan pottery of a kind associated at other sites with objects of the Twelfth Egyptian Dynasty, (5 ) more exactly, of its earlier part.(6 ) This is regarded as proof that these two dynasties were contemporaneous. In the last several decades, however, a series of new discoveries have made a drastic reduction of the time of Hammurabi imperative. Chief among the factors that demand a radical change in ...
