... – in the Americas, China, India, etc. Pendle Hill in Lancashire is a British example, having connections with witches and things that go bump in the night. It was also associated with visions and the beginnings of the Quaker movement and, in more recent years, with UFO's. This might add a further dimension to the Moses story and the Mountain of God. Could it have been a light phenomenon associated with tectonic activity in the bowels of the mountain that Moses experienced, possibly even an element of radiation? The alternative might be an electrical event of some kind [see Emmet Sweeney's Horeb: The Mountain of God' in this issue]. Comments by ...
252. Caananites, Chronologies and Connections, by Susan Cohen [Journals] [SIS Review]
... shows that the MB ceramics of strata F are plentiful in the eastern Delta, and only there, and postulates that it was from the eastern Delta that Nehesy ruled a separate kingdom). This book is an impressive addition to our knowledge of this era and important with respect to those postulating alternative chronologies. The Exodus from Egypt led by Moses has been considered to have occurred in at least three places in Egyptian history; at the end of EBIII (Courville), at the end of MBIIc (Velikovsky, Bimson, Rohl), or at the end of LB. For the EBIII supporters, the MBI period is Joshua's tribal occupation and the MBIIa period must occur during ...
253. Egyptian Influence Upon Early Israelite Literature [Journals] [Aeon]
... Lord was with Israel from the beginning, emphasizing divine support for the Israelite army. Lori Rowlett [95] asserts that Joshua 1:1-9 utilizes the language of a war oracle, [96] common to ancient Near Eastern cultures such as Egypt. [97] In the Book of Joshua we read: "After the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, the Lord said to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people, into the land which I am giving to them, to the people of Israel. Every place that the sole of ...

... of Piazzi Smyth but his work, the first truly methodical survey of the Giza site, showed that all of the seemingly significant calculations of his predecessors had been founded, literally, on so much sand and rubble'. The author concludes that the riddle of why people believe in Pyramidology lies not with Egyptologists, but with psychologists'. Moses and the Exodus Jeremy Bowen is the latest to investigate the historicity of Moses and the Exodus. In Moses (BBC1, 1 Dec. 2002), he made a valiant attempt to find a historical setting for them, yet seemed unable to break away from the supposed link to Ramesses II, fatally weakening his case. Bowen started ...

... helpful guidance of the law of God revealed to him.[8 ] It was, therefore, Israel who was taken into special consideration at the time man was made. All other creatures were instructed to change their nature, if Israel should ever need their help in the course of his history. The sea was ordered to divide before Moses, and the heavens to give ear to the words of the leader; the sun and the moon were bidden to stand still before Joshua, the ravens to feed Elijah, the fire to spare the three youths in the furnace, the lion to do no harm to Daniel, the fish to spew forth Jonah, and the heavens ...
256. A Criticism of the Revised Chronology [Journals] [Pensee]
... his followers have committed the opposite fallacy of assuming Velikovsky's entire theory to be proved by evidence that some of his predictions about Venus, the moon and Jupiter may be correct). Hopefully, in the future other specialists in ancient history will join the discussion and present their views on Velikovsky's theories. Velikovsky's position is that in the days of Moses, the Exodus and the conquest of Canaan under Joshua (which he dates to the fourteenth century B.C .) a universal catastrophe overwhelmed the earth-a comet (which later became the planet Venus) passed close to the earth causing tidal waves, earthquakes, pestilence, unnatural darkness, death and other destruction, while causing a temporary ...
257. The Genesis of Israel and Egypt by Emmett Sweeney [Journals] [SIS Review]
... CR 1996:2 [1 ], so my own summary of it will be fairly brief. The introduction sets the scene, citing the repeated failure of historians through the ages to identify, from Egyptian hieroglyphic sources, Biblical characters who were associated with Egypt. Thus the giants among the ancient Hebrews, such as Abraham, Joseph and Moses, are now considered either to be legendary characters, or to be too insignificant to warrant a mention in extant Egyptian annals. Attempts to find archaeological proof' for the existence of such characters receives short shrift from the Establishment of conventional archaeologists and historians. In their opinion, if you're looking for the lunatic fringe, start here. ...

... people from among the nations of the earth." To make the true relation between God and Israel known to the prophet, he was commanded to take to wife a woman with a dubious past. After she had borne him several children, God suddenly put the question to him: "Why followest thou not the example of thy teacher Moses, who denied himself the joys of family life after his call to prophecy?" Hosea replied: "I can neither send my wife away nor divorce her, for she has borne me children." "If, now," said God to him, "thou who hast a wife of whose honesty thou art so uncertain ...

260. The Periodic Cyclicism Of Ancient Catastrophes [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... . From this comes the old wives' tale that Friday the 13th might be unlucky. March 20-21 is notable in several other ways. To astronomers it is the vernal equinox. To farmers, students and others it is the first day of spring, and to Israelis it is the anniversary of their Day of Independence, the night when Moses led the Hebrew slaves out of the land of Egypt. March 21 was also a date of destruction and chaos, of diastrophism and catastrophism, in ancient Rome. It was their "Tubulustrium". The Romans feared Mars to the point that Mars veneration dominated Roman religion for 1,000 years. In Latin, tubicen means " ...
