... when he cannot offer an explanation which fits an obvious pattern he suggests scribal error. He dismisses Stenring in a footnote (p . 5), referring to him only indirectly via Larsson's work. He would have benefited from reading Stenring. Lisa Aaronson misrepresented my presentation of Stenring's findings. His work can be checked by anyone who begins at Genesis 1:5 so evening came and morning came, the first day' and counts the passage of days. The significance of dates, ages, time periods are revealed which explain apparent inconsistencies in the text, making it clear that they are deliberate and not a matter of scribal error. Stenring calculated that the data must have been ...
... be said of the Ethiopians, and here, it is essential to recollect, they were the Cushites of the Scriptures, and Cush was the eldest Son of Ham, or Ammon, or Hammon, the senior of nations which included Mizraim, or Egypt, Canaan and Phut, all ethnologically related according to the genealogy of the Book of Genesis. There is really no substance in the belief that the Ethiopians dwelt in Africa (except for various colonies), an error for which I fear we must blame Herodotus more than any classic writer, although the Phoenicians themselves, with their secretive policy respecting sea routes and world geography (the ostensible object being to retain the monopoly of ...
233. The Cyclic Nature of Ancient Catastrophes [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... By inductive logic Mercury and Venus remain. In The Biblical Flood and the Ice Epoch (1966) I conjectured it was Mercury. Since then I have changed my mind and I now consider Venus to be the more likely candidate. Furthermore, while the low eccentricity of the Venusian orbit is most difficult to explain in any cosmology or astronomical genesis system, yet a catastrophe involving (a ) the dismemberment of a binary, and (b ) the use of the Earth for a turnpoint to move to an inside orbit once, and (c ) perhaps even twice, is an approach containing more possibilities, more potential, than any other of which I am aware. Velikovsky ...
234. Review, Notes and Letters [Journals] [Pensee]
... Dr. Velikovsky's translation in verse 5 is correct, be translated there the same way. This would mean that also there has been a historical period of time when Earth was without a Sun. Psalm 72 therefore does not support Dr. Velikovsky's thesis. It is a pity, however, that Dr. Velikovsky dismisses the first chapter of Genesis as a myth, a tale brought down from exotic and later sources. Dr. Velikovsky, in doing this, follows the lead of Bible-critics of the uniformitarian-evolutionist school. It was students of this school who also dismissed Dr. Velikovsky's discoveries as exotic and mythical. Yet Genesis 1 leaves room for Dr. Velikovsky's thesis that earth has ...
235. The Science of Evolution (Part I) [Journals] [Kronos]
... phyla are unknown and probably unknowable: "Our ignorance is so great that we dare not even assign with any accuracy an ancestral stock to the phyla Protozoa, Arthropoda, Mollusca, and Vertebrata. The concrete evidence relative to the "heyday" of evolution seriously impairs any transformation theory. In any case, a shadow is cast over the genesis of the fundamental structural plans and we are unable to eliminate it. (p . 17)" Monogenesis plays no significant part in Grassé's conception of evolution except to emphasize the historical nature of it. Paradoxically, Grassé slights historical evidence for repeated biogenesis in the past as part of his effort to demonstrate historicity. However, it is ...
236. The Age Of Man In America [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... the Bering land bridge were hell on Earth. In spite of no evidence of man in these regions 12,000 years ago, in spite of man's supposed lack of technology to live above 60 N latitude, and the impossible conditions at the crossing area, this land bridge theory is accepted. Jeffrey Goodman, in his book, American Genesis, has written an extremely readable and well-documented analysis of the Bering land bridge myth.58 For the reader with an interest in the broad range of evidence which contradicts this anthropological dogma, I suggest that this insightful research be perused. The lack of evidence for the migration of man into America via this route, and the number of ...
237. Part IV: Conclusions [Ragnarok] [Books]
... Roman, Egyptian, and Assyrian kings and queens, in the presence of such stupendous facts as these! Good reader, your mind shrinks back from such conceptions, of course. But can you escape the facts by shrinking back ? Are they not there? Are they not all of a piece -Job, Ovid, Rama, Ragnarok, Genesis, the Aztec legends; the engraved ivory tablets of the caves, the pottery, the carved figures of pre-glacial Europe ; the pottery strata of Louisiana under the Drift ; the copper and iron implements, the brick pavements and cisterns, and this coin, dragged up from well-holes in Illinois? And what do they affirm? That this ...
238. 'Worlds in Collision' After Heinsohn [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Deluge with a nova of Saturn which unleashed water over the entire Solar System; when the planet was next seen, after a period of invisibility, it had rings. In the aftermath Jupiter collected much of the dispersed material and, rotating ever more swiftly, underwent fission'. The Deluge event itself he finds stripped of planetary associations in Genesis but associated with planetary figures in the Egyptian Osiris, the Babylonian Tammuz and the Greek Cronos [15]. He associates the appearance of Saturn in rings during a period of Jovian dominance of the sky with such myths as the Egyptian story (from Old Kingdom Pyramid Worlds in CollisionTexts and other sources) of Isis gathering the body parts ...
239. The Two Major Censuses in the Book of Numbers [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... in this chapter eleph is liberally translated as "thousands," thereby converting David's feast for his military officers from all Israel into a banquet for 340,000 persons. Usage where Eleph is not "Thousand"There are occasions where eleph or alluph is not translated as "thousand," and it is usually in a military context: Genesis 36:15 These were the dukes of the Sons of Esau... (In over 30 instances in this chapter alluph is translated as "duke," which indicates governmental if not military leadership.) Judges 6:16 And he said unto him, Oh my Lord, wherewith shall I save Israel? Behold my family ...
240. A Fire not Blown [Books]
... an axe, has the same consonants as the Greek antron, cave. Antron probably means a cave formed by a split in the rock. The Lydian word pel, cave, is related to the Greek spelaion. Pelekus is the Greek for a sacrificial axe, and it was in the days of Peleg that the earth was divided [Genesis X:25]. Furthermore, the German spellen means to split. Q-CD vol. 13, A Fire Not Blown, Ch. 3: Katreus 18 The name of Katreus, the successor of Minos, may have ka as a significant component. The treus' is probably tereus', which happens to be the name of ...
