... ") in Hittite hieroglyphic and in Phoenician (or Hebrew). In it Asitawandas declares that he is a Danunian of the house of Mopsus. Now, you know that this ties him to the "Dan" forms, but Mopsus was a Greek seer. It can be theorized that the name "Mopsus" also designates the prophet Moses. We will support that theory later. Next to Cilicia was the old Aramaean state of Samal who was called by Olmstead the Northern Judah, as its name was close to Judah. It will also be shown that Judah and Dan, which were neighboring tribes, were also traveling companions. One short stop before we reach the Peloponnesos ...
382. Astronomy and Chronology [Journals] [Pensee]
... in the very same order that is a legacy of Julius Africanus who wrote in the third Christian century"(2 ). Africanus, one of the Fathers of the Church, preserved the legacy of Manetho of the third pre-Christian century. Manetho was an Egyptian writer, historian, polemicist, and anti-Semite, inventor of a baseless identification of Moses with Typhon, the evil spirit, and the Israelites with the Hyksos; also, contradicting himself, he identified Moses with the rebellious priest Osarsiph, of much later times, who called to his help the lepers of Jerusalem in his war with his own country. In composing his history of Egypt and putting together a register of its ...
383. Bookshelf [Journals] [SIS Review]
... that of Asimov and Martin Gardner. In his book "Can You Speak Venusian?" (7 ) he devotes a chapter to Velikovsky, and we are treated to the familiar recipe of distortion blended with ridicule. Venus acts like "a cosmical ping-pong ball" and Velikovsky's historical methods are on a par with "the man who identified Moses with Middlebury by the simple expedient of deleting the -oses and adding the -iddlebury". This latter criticism connoisseurs will recognise as being out of Albright by Gardner. Moore might be intrigued to know that twenty years after writing these words, the eminent Professor Albright suddenly, and unexpectedly came to Velikovsky's lectures and, in the words of Velikovsky ...
384. Scientific Prehistory [Books]
... TR-logs were set up. Furthermore, there is no way to know whether or not the Stokes Smiley requirements applied in the BC period, for example, in Egyptian dating. Note also that the fractures (actually formed by release of load, not slow and uniform comparing it with the Egyptian name of stratification.) They continue right through Moses, Imhotep. the fossil itself. Egypt was the "land of Ham", so no Pharaoh dated earlier than about a hundred years after the Flood would be properly dated. Table 2-1 shows ages of several Pharaohs from published historical, TR-dates and ER-dates together with NER corrections from ER data. Clearly there has been a tendency over ...
385. Human Sacrifice - Then and Now [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... is founding twins with the death of only one and we begin to get a glimpse of the complexities in distinguishing the bad from the good, or God from Satan. There is much evidence for sacrifice in the early history of the Israelites, with Yahweh a god of high places, indistinguishable from the mountain gods of the Andes. Although Moses is credited with the inaugural reforms of monotheism and banishing sacrifice and idol worship, this drastic change in thought from god as fierce and vengeful to god as love and justice actually occurs between Isaiah and Jeremiah. Now there were no victims to expiate cultural misbehaviour and the individual became responsible for the good of his society by rigid adherence to ...
386. Planet Worship In Judea In The Seventh Century, Part 2 Mars Ch.5 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... woman . . . and shall stone them with stones, till they die" (17:2-5) Thus we see the centuries-long struggle for the Jewish God, Creator and not unanimated planet, itself a creation, being carried on in the closing decades before the exile to Babylon with the help of the book whose authorship was ascribed to Moses. When the people of Jerusalem were exiled to Babylon, and groups of refugees succeeded in escaping to Egypt, taking with them Jeremiah, they said to him: "But we will certainly . . . burn our incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offering s unto her, as we have done, ...
387. The Genesis of Israel and Egypt [Journals] [SIS Review]
... insisted that it was with Menes that the people of the Nile valley became a cultured and literate nation. Both characters were also regarded as religious innovators. Thus in Genesis 17:9 Abraham initiates the custom of circumcision, a ritual that was to stay with the Hebrews throughout their history and was to become a central religious duty. In Moses' time, the instrument used to perform the operation was a flint knife - suggestive of the custom's remote antiquity (Exodus 4:12). Now recall that circumcision was one of the most ancient customs of Egypt, assumed to have been introduced either at the end of the predynastic, or near the beginning of the dynastic period ...
388. Jericho, Part 1 Venus Ch.6 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... blocked the water for over twenty-one hours; at Damieh (Adam) the people crossed the river on its dry bed." The fall of the walls of Jericho at the blast of the trumpets is a well-known episode, but it is not well interpreted. The horns blown by the priests for seven days played no greater natural role than Moses' rod with which, in the legend, he opened a passage in the sea. "When the people heard the sound of the trumpet," it happened that "the wall fell down flat."(72) The great sound of the trumpet was produced by the earth; the Israelite tribes, believing in magic, ...

... bred separately. The fact that Africa contains both humped, zebu, cattle and the flat-backed taurine European type, could be explained if Arab invaders brought only zebu males to breed with the stock already present. Mitochondrial DNA is only passed down via the female and would therefore not show the introduction of zebu material from the Indian source. MYTH Moses and Sargon The Myth of the Goddess p. 466 The bitumen and pitch painted on Moses' baby basket to keep it afloat in the bulrushes of the Nile are an anachronism because the Egyptians apparently did not know of these materials until Ptolemaic times. As a repetition of an earlier myth involving the baby who became Sargon of Akkad, ...
390. Mount Sinai, Part 1 Venus Ch.4 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... exceeding loud; so that all the people that was in the camp trembled. . . . And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke . . . and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly. And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice."(9 ) The Talmud and Midrashim describe the Mountain of the Lawgiving as quaking so greatly that it appeared as if it were lifted up and shaken above the heads of the people; and the people felt as if they were no longer standing securely on the ground, but ...
