... R. de Vaux illustrates from Egyptian archives, when Joseph was first introduced to the Egyptians he was considered to be a slave from the land of the ibh'rim.[8 ] Only after he was given his freedom and a high rank among the Egyptians did they cease calling him "Joseph the ibh'ri slave." Furthermore, Yahweh calls Moses' people in Egypt the "children of Israel" during his period of exile in the desert, but tells him to refer to Yahweh as "the God of the ibr'rim" when he confronts the Pharaoh.[9 ] In other words, Yahweh is to be represented to pharaoh as the god of slaves while the phrase " ...
282. Part III: The Legends [Ragnarok] [Books]
... sons and daughters. Has the book of Job anything to do with that great event which we have been discussing? Did it originate out of it? Let us see. In the first place it is, I believe, conceded by the foremost scholars that the book of Job is not a Hebrew work; it was not written by Moses; it far antedates even the time of Abraham. That very high orthodox authority, George Smith, F.S .A ., in his work shows that " Everything relating to this patriarch has been violently controverted. His country; the age in which he lived; the author of the book that bears his name; have ...
283. Letters [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... the letter M': the MU', MEM' or MA' - Water' or Deluge' cycle. It was made up of 2,300 year lots, 600 year lots and 40 year lots. One such cycle, as per Daniel's prophecy, ended in 69/70 AD at the destruction of the Jerusalem temple. Moses used the 600 year component of this cycle but deliberately ignored the other composite parts in order to place the end of Noah's 600th year on the 600 year cyclic date of 2331 / 30 BC. Then he reduced the 427 Hentis (60 year periods) to literal years of the first eight Semitic Postdiluvian Patriarchs (Contemps of the 8 ...
... pointed to certain rocks as having been formed before the existence of animals and plants : selecting unfortunately as examples certain formations of limestone and sandstone in his own country, now known to contain, though sparingly, the remains of animals and plants, strata which do not even rank as the oldest part of our secondary series. Steno suggested that Moses, when speaking of the loftiest mountains as having been covered by the deluge, meant merely the loftiest of the hills then existing, which may not have been very high. The diluvian waters, he supposed, may have issued from the interior of the earth into which they had retired, when in the beginning the land was separated ...
285. The Destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah [Journals] [Kronos]
... the Valley of Siddim, where the cities were located, became an inner sea. Sulphur and brimstone fell from heaven, one of the best cultivated areas was overturned, and fire from beneath and fire from above accomplished the desolation- all this is described; but not at the appearance of a sea. However, when the Israelites under Moses and Joshua reached the area in their flight from Egypt, they found a sea there.(1 ) Thus, it seems to have appeared after a catastrophe later than the one that destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. But if there were no Dead Sea much before the time of the Exodus whither did the Jordan flow, assuming it was ...
286. From the Great Extremity to which the Jews were reduced to the taking of Jerusalem by Titus [Books]
... (13) Court of Israel. (14) Of the court of the Gentiles. (15) What Josephus observes here, that no parallel examples had been recorded before this time of such sieges, wherein mothers were forced by extremity of famine to eat their own children, as had been threatened to the Jews in the law of Moses, upon obstinate disobedience, and more than once fulfilled, (see my Boyle's Lectures, p. 210-214,) is by Dr. Hudson supposed to have had two or three parallel examples in later ages. He might have had more examples, I suppose, of persons on ship-board, or in a desert island, casting lots ...
... But in the judgments they exercise they are most accurate and just, nor do they pass sentence by the votes of a court that is fewer than a hundred. And as to what is once determined by that number, it is unalterable. What they most of all honor, after God himself, is the name of their legislator [Moses], whom if any one blaspheme he is punished capitally. They also think it a good thing to obey their elders, and the major part. Accordingly, if ten of them be sitting together, no one of them will speak while the other nine are against it. They also avoid spitting in the midst of them, ...
... who was a Jew, but had been driven away from his own country by an accusation laid against him for transgressing their laws, and by the fear he was under of punishment for the same; but in all respects a wicked man. He, then living at Rome, professed to instruct men in the wisdom of the laws of Moses. He procured also three other men, entirely of the same character with himself, to be his partners. These men persuaded Fulvia, a woman of great dignity, and one that had embraced the Jewish religion, to send purple and gold to the temple at Jerusalem; and when they had gotten them, they employed them for ...

... to go into the caverns of the rocks , . . into the clefts of the ragged rocks .. . when he ariseth to shake mightily the earth. Note 30. The `bloody moon' is mentioned in many myths. Cf. also a report coming from a tropical asylum where the waters of the girdle-tide subsided (Assumption of Moses, x. 5 and 6) When the judgment day comes `the sun shall not give light . . . and the horns of the moon shall be changed and broken and entirely turned into blood. And the circle of the stars shall be disturbed. And the sea shall retire into the abyss . . . . ' ( ...
290. Ancient History Revisions: the Last 25 years - a Perspective [Journals] [SIS Review]
... archaeological and art history problems to this day. By the end of the 19th century, many historians had suggested that the monotheistic cult of Akhenaten of Dynasty XVIII, who established a new capital at Amarna dedicated to Aten worship, was a direct result of a Hebrew influence. In 1939 Sigmund Freud, exploring the history of religion, wrote Moses and Monotheism [7 ] in which he linked Moses and Akhenaten. This caught the imagination of one of his students by the name of Immanuel Velikovsky. 3. Immanuel Velikovsky and Revisionists 1952-1974 3.1 Velikovsky and Ages In Chaos Velikovsky, initially a practising psychiatrist, was intrigued by Freud's book. After moving to New York just ...
