... Thebaid cycle appear to have originated in historical events that took place in the palaces of Egypt, wonder may persist about certain cliches of mythological character interwoven in the story of Oedipus. He was exposed as a child, or doomed to die, threatened by a decree of a king, and so were Sargon I, king of Assyria, Moses, Jesus, even Judas Iscariot,1 and a host of historical, semihistorical, and purely legendary characters. It may well be that the detail of the exposure of the infant Oedipus in the wasteland was but a legendary ornamentation and addition to the actual happenings that occurred to his historical prototype, and that all that took place following ...
302. The Nature and Scale of an Exodus Catastrophe Reassessed [Journals] [SIS Review]
... the pillar as a cometary tail, and a similar theory has been offered in a different context by Clube and Napier (1982: 218-223). However, no natural explanation makes sense of all the biblical references to the pillar of cloud and fire; it descends and stands at the door of the tent of meeting when God meets with Moses (Exodus 33:9 ; 40:34-38; Numbers 11:25; 12:5 ); and it rests over the tabernacle when Israel is camped, lifting in order to signal that it is time to move on (Numbers 9:15-23); centuries later it manifests itself at the dedication of the Temple (I ...

304. Manna as a Confection [Journals] [SIS Review]
... absence of any more direct confirmation; it would suggest the presence of at least some radium in the cloud, thus amply justifying the instructions of Exodus 19 and Exodus 33, vv.17-23 that no ordinary mortal can approach the God of the cloud at all closely and expect to survive the encounter. Another suggestive occurrence is the time when Moses' face shone so strangely after he came out of the cloud that the others kept their distance from him (Exodus 34, vv.29-35). Many similar pointers can be picked up from an informed reading of the Old Testament. It may be noted that strontium, barium and radium can all make luminous paints and that the ...
305. Society News [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... present, with the main topic being the Pharaoh of the Exodus. Bob Porter produced a chart of different placings for the Exodus in Egyptian history, ranging from the conventional view to that of Velikovsky. The latter was supported by Tony Chavasse who went over the evidence in some detail, in addition suggesting there were 3 exoduses and perhaps 2 Moses, viz the story of Zipporah in Exodus 4.24-25. The main exodus happened during the 13th Dynasty, a list of whose kings in the Turin Canon includes Khaneferre Sebekhotpe, who has been equated with Chenefres in whose time Moses was born according to Hebrew legend. The Turin Canon, which is damaged and incomplete, could have ...
306. The Cornell Lecture: Sagan on A Wednesday [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... larval contamination of the Earth is anyone's guess." (6 ) According to Sagan: Now the Pharoah eventually relents, the Israelites are permitted to leave- there's, according to Exodus, a few hundred thousand of them, they approach the Red Sea, the host of the Pharoah follows them, the Pharoah hardens his heart again, and Moses has a rod and taps it on a rock and the Red Sea opens. Okay, the Israelites go across, not getting even slightly damp, and then the host of Pharoah follows them and, about halfway across the Red Sea, the Red Sea comes washing back and everybody drowns, but the Israelites get away. But Pharaoh ...
307. Indra: A Case Study in Comparative Mythology [Journals] [Aeon]
... Verethragna finds a close homologue in the Armenian hero Vahagn (Vahagn is apparently the Armenian transcription of the Parthian name Verethragna), of whom little is known apart from the fact that he too was renowned as a dragon-slayer. (72) All that remains are a few fragments of the myth of his tumultuous birth, described as follows by Moses of Chorene (the leading historian of Armenian lore): "Heaven and earth were in travail, the purple sea was in travail; a red reed had its birth in the seas, from the stems of the reed came forth smoke, from the stems of the reed came forth a flame, and from the flame sprang a ...
308. The Sign and the Seal by Graham Hancock [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... by Graham Hancock This exciting book is described by the publisher as part adventure story, part historical detective work. I found it, very enjoyably, just that. The subject of the author's quest is the Ark of the Covenant, that is to say the container made by the Israelites to house the tablets of stone inscribed by God for Moses. The story begins and ends in Ethiopia, and is very much bound up with recent history. The excitement is in Graham Hancock's descriptions of his encounters with those involved in the civil war, with local and other historians, and particularly his accounts of the present day acting out of ancient traditions. Hancock was formerly East African correspondent ...

310. Discussion on Velikovsky, Victor Clube's book [Articles]
... , the Hebrew patriarch, and since all these fellows who dealt with Ancient Babylonia read the Bible first and read that Abraham came from Ur of the Chaldees, as it's written in the Bible, not of the Sumerians, the Bible in this is somewhat clear, they needed a civilisation before Abraham. Abraham was placed some 400 years before Moses, so with Abraham we are already 1800, 1900 BC, and then he lived in a flourishing, urban culture with a monetary economy, and this takes some time to develop, and then we have to move up to 2400, 2500 to begin with an urban culture, and then we need a pre-urban culture and we end ...
