... happened to him, Ahab took courage, and readily led his army against the king of Syria; for, as I suppose, fate was too hard for him, and made him believe that the false prophets spake truer than the true one, that it might take an occasion of bringing him to his end. However, Zedekiah made horns of iron, and said to Ahab, that God made those horns signals, that by them he should overthrow all Syria. But Micaiah replied, that Zedekiah, in a few days, should go from one secret chamber to another to hide himself, that he might escape the punishment of his lying. Then did the king give ...
... were within commiserated their condition, and received them in again. And when Hyrcanus sent to Antiochus, and desired there might be a truce for seven days, because of the festival, be gave way to this piety towards God, and made that truce accordingly. And besides that, he sent in a magnificent sacrifice, bulls with their horns gilded, (22) with all sorts of sweet spices, and with cups of gold and silver. So those that were at the gates received the sacrifices from those that brought them, and led them to the temple, Antiochus the mean while feasting his army, which was a quite different conduct from Antiochus Epiphanes, who, ...

... high Andes and the migration of the Mongols to central Asia and China. Introduction As related by Clube and Napier [1 ], on June 18th 1178 AD four wise men of Canterbury were sitting outside on a clear, calm night, a half Moon standing placidly in the starry sky. Suddenly they noticed a flame jutting out of a horn of the Moon. Then the Moon trembled and its colour changed slowly from brilliant white to a darker reddish tone. Such a colour remained for all the time the Moon was visible during that phase. This story is found in a manuscript version of Canterbury annals, attributed to the cleric Gervase and was shown to Clube by an English ...
294. Ancient Near Eastern Chronology: To Revise or not to Revise? [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... ). Religio-myth seems to have been attached to an historical event- in much the same way as the cosmic myth of Romulus and Remus has been attached to the story of the foundation of Rome. We might imagine that religio-myth is also affixed to the description of the person Moses, the central character in the storyline. The idea that horns grew out of his head has obvious cometary parallels which indicates Moses has absorbed some divine characteristics which might be further demonstrated by the addition to the storyline of the religio-myth of the inauguration of the rite of circumcision. It is unlikely that this rite originated in the second millenium by reason it has very ancient roots demonstrable by reason it is ...

... Joshua to Esther IX. THE LATER KINGS OF JUDAH Joash Three Great Prophets The Two Kingdoms Chastised Hezekiah Miracles Wrought For Hezekiah Manasseh Josiah and His Successors JOASH When the prophet Jonah, doing the behest of his master Elisha, anointed Jehu king over Israel, (1 ) he poured the oil out of a pitcher, not out of a horn, to indicate that the dynasty of Jehu would not occupy the throne long. (2 ) At first Jehu, though a somewhat foolish (3 ) king, was at least pious, but he abandoned his God-fearing ways from the moment he saw the document bearing the signature of the prophet Ahijah of Shilo, which bound the signers ...

... , thus creating the Big-Hole area? Casual observation of this area shows a crater 150 miles in diameter, the bottom of which is over 1000 feet below the surrounding terrain. The base-rock which forms the floor of the Big Hole is identical in composition to that surrounding it. The Big Hole has Yellowstone Park to its west, the Big Horn Range to its east, and other ranges north and south. Rocky debris is scattered to the north-west in southern Montana. The tilted inner circle of rocks, 500 to 1000 feet or more in height, constitutes proof of the impact which caused it. The size of this "celestial body" would have had to have been 75 ...

... 181. 24. Ibid, 166. 25. Galileo was the first in modern history to see the phases of Venus, and he used a telescope. Of course a lot of people claimed they could "see them with the unaided eye after they were discovered; however, this would not adequately explain the ancients fascination with the "Horns of Venus. 26. Mere is a difference between a drawing and a photograph of the same comet. An ultraviolet wavelength of light that the eye cannot see washes out the fine structure in the photographs and this often produces the common image of a comet. However, the drawings are more likely to give the type of impressions the ...

... mountain, yea, they durst not even stay near it, lest God smite those who pushed forward, with hail or fiery arrows. [197] The day of the revelation announced itself as an ominous day even in the morning, for diverse rumblings sounded from Mount Sinai. Flashes of lightning, accompanied by an ever swelling peal of horns, moved the people with mighty fear and trembling. God bent the heavens, moved the earth, and shook the bounds of the world, so that the depths trembled, and the heavens grew frightened. His splendor passed through the four portals of fire, earthquake, storm and hail. The kings of the earth trembled in their ...

... . A cylinder seal from Mesopotamia depicts a goddess, also with raised wings, standing on the twin-peaked mountain of myth from which the god Shamash rises. She is flanked by the god Ea and an archer guarding a lion [3 ]. A votive pin from Luristan at the end of the 2nd millennium BC (orthodox) depicts a horned figure with raised arms flanked by two standing figures [4 ] but perhaps most significant is the middle register of the coffin of Artemidorus from the Fayum in Egypt dated from 2nd century AD [5 ]. This is typical Egyptian artwork with Horus and Thoth flanking the emblem of Osiris. As this emblem has attributes of the world pillar ...
... as the Cimbric or Cimmerian Chersonesus or Peninsula. They were no wild barbarians. Plutarch, in his life of Marius, tells how they formed their infantry in immense hollow squares like the, Macedonians and as the British did fifty years ago! Their cavalry was superbly mounted, an iron cuirass protecting the body, the helmet adorned with the horns or other emblem of a wild animal or bird. Their former victories, their tallness of stature, their ferocious air, their savage shouts and unusual method of fighting all combined to strike terror into the hearts of the Roman legions. They had no desire to make war on the Romans, they protested, a people whom they respected ...
