... his own work in the area- to buttress his arguments. (The only major exception was his demonstration that Nebuchadnezzar and Hattusilis were the same person psychologically: Even then, the psychological argument was secondary to historiographic ones.) I have already suggested that Velikovsky felt compelled to reorder history in order to refute Freud's notion that Akhnaton- not Moses- was the world's first monotheist. But Moses and Monotheism, the book in which Freud developed that thesis, was not only a negatively charged motivator, it was also a positive inducement as well. Many of Freud's suggestions in that book were reinterpreted in a Velikovskian sense. For example, at one point Freud discussed the phenomenon of ...
132. The Place of Horemheb in Egyptian History [Journals] [SIS Review]
... place of Eternity', Maya later undertook the restoration of the tomb of Thutmose IV, an enterprise which he marked with a graffito in the tomb dated to Year 8 of Horemheb [20]. A further link between the Amarna period and not only Horemheb but also Ramesses II is provided by the account in the Memphite tomb chapel of Mose of a prolonged lawsuit over the ownership of some land [21]. This account was written after a hearing of this case in Year 18 of Ramesses II (against which Mose later appealed) at which his mother, Nubnofret, widow of Huy, had failed to establish her claim to the land. An earlier stage of these ...
133. Preface to the Antiquities of the Jews [Books]
... shall accurately describe what is contained in our records, in the order of time that belongs to them; for I have already promised so to do throughout this undertaking; and this without adding any thing to what is therein contained, or taking away any thing therefrom. 4. But because almost all our constitution depends on the wisdom of Moses, our legislator, I cannot avoid saying somewhat concerning him beforehand, though I shall do it briefly; I mean, because otherwise those that read my book may wonder how it comes to pass, that my discourse, which promises an account of laws and historical facts, contains so much of philosophy. The reader is therefore to ...
134. Homo Schizo Meets God [Books] [de Grazia books]
... , and they cannot find it." It is doubtful, I would speculate, that Velikovsky was an agnostic, and I very much doubt that he was an atheist. The sense of moral destiny, or right and wrong is too strong in his books for that. At the same time, however, just as Freud quailed before Moses, Velikovsky gives us the imagery of Ahab and Saul quaking before the prophets of God, and his sympathies are clearly with the sinner kings.... Velikovsky kept some orthodox Jewish practices rigorously, but insisted that he only did so for the sake of his wife. As they enjoyed 57 years of sympathetic accord in their marriage ...
135. Quantavolution and Catastrophes Series [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... rationality, and located in myriad constellations of sublimation. The Disastrous Love Affair of Moon and Mars: Celestial sex, earthly destruction, and dramatic sublimation in Homer's Odyssey. A complete but incredible case can be built up from an ancient chant that has Mars, Moon, Venus, and Earth in close and destructive encounters. God's Fire: Moses and the Management of Exodus. I have found no book that deals adequately with the psychology of Moses, and therefore have portrayed fully the workings of his mind. No study has properly embraced Moses in his two great capacities as a manager and scientist, and so I have reconstructed these his qualities as well. Furthermore, the Exodus ...
136. The Chronology of Israel and Judah Part IId [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... of fear and rebellion, Israel was sentenced to wander in the wilderness until the older generation had died off. In Numbers 14:33-34 and Acts 7:36 we find that the Israelites wandered there for forty years (1492-1452). It was 38 years between the time the Israelites first came to Kadesh and the time they returned under Moses and crossed the brook Zered (Numbers 21:12-13; Deuteronomy 2:14). Probably during the late summer or early autumn of the fortieth year (1453) Israel defeated two Canaanite kings who ruled east of the Jordan, Sihon king of the Amorites at Heshbon and Og king of Bashan (Numbers 21:21-35). ...
137. Velikovskian Catastrophes in the Revelation of St. John [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... heaven, and did cast them to the earth.[Revelation 12:4 ] And he does great wonders, so that he makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men.[Revelation 13:13] No need to explain the nature of the catastrophes. Like the Egyptian sorcerers imitating the signs of Moses and Aaron (Exodus 7:11,12,22; 8:7 ), so the devil and his servant will have the power to cause Velikovskian catastrophes. And the forth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. And men were scorched with great heat ...
138. The Woman Who Wondered (Prof. Dr. Hertha von Dechend) [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... with many of your questions (and makes my answers so nonspecific) is the retrocession of unreasonable attributes by later commentators onto earlier people/places/things. For example (gee, I've always wanted to wing something like this): "The preceding age [to Pisces, RDF], that of Aries, had been heralded by Moses coming down from Mount Sinai as two-horned, ' that is, crowned with the Ram's horns, while his flock disobediently insisted upon dancing around the Golden Calf', that was, a Golden Bull', Taurus." Hamlet's Mill, see above, p. 60. Because such statements are not supported with references, many scholars ...
139. From the Death of Saul to the Death of David [Books]
... God, he thought he should offend him, if, while he himself continued in houses made of cedar, such as were of a great height, and had the most curious works of architecture in them, he should overlook the ark while it was laid in a tabernacle, and was desirous to build a temple to God, as Moses had predicted such a temple should be built. (8 ) And when he had discoursed with Nathan the prophet about these things, and had been encouraged by him to do whatsoever he had a mind to do, as having God with him, and his helper in all things, he was thereupon the more ready to set about ...
140. A CRITICAL RE-APPRAISAL OF THE BOOK OF GENESIS [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... so saturated with Egyptian elements, from first chapter to last, that one is forced to admit that the entire narrative was written from an Egyptian perspective. This latter discovery is Professor Yahuda's great contribution. The combination of these excellent theses, based on solid archaeological evidence enable a conclusion to be reached which is perfectly harmonious with the tradition that Moses substantially composed the Book of Genesis. Nor do these theses upset another tradition; namely that Moses may have borrowed from other sources. In fact Wiseman's argument shows emphatically that Moses did rely on written sources. However, his sources were extremely ancient and precise, and were quite different from the dubious sources which the documentists propose as being ...
