... also known as the First Born God, the epithet of Horus, son of Osiris. In hymn 393 of the Pyramid Texts the sky is overcast, the stars are darkened, the celestial expanses shake (or explode) and the bones of the earth tremble .. . etc. Warshawky made a connection between the Judgement of Thoth and Moses receiving the Law on Mount Sinai and went on to suggest that the punishment of Seth, the Bull, being ridden by Osiris, is the same story as Balaam riding a donkey [12]. As a result, Warshawky claimed the Pyramid Texts must have been written after the Exodus - either the Exodus preceded the Old Kingdom or ...
432. The Knowledge Industry [Books] [de Grazia books]
... . Sloan Foundation. Warren Weaver was a career philanthropist, wrote a good general survey on probability and, like many another, was a nice man. New York University named its Computer Center after him. (For a photo of it, in context, see Deg's Politics for Better or for Worse.) May 4, 1964 Professor Moses Hadas Columbia University New York 27, New York Dear Professor Hadas: As long-time subscriber to Reporter magazine- actually since it started- I was very much interested in your excellent review in a recent issue of "Hebrew Myths: The Book of Genesis." by Robert Graves and Raphael Patai. I did draw a long, deep ...

... , the evening land) and carry her to the west. Arabia (also Erev) kept its name, "the evening land,"(13) though it lies to the east of the centres of civilization-Egypt, Palestine, Greece. Eusebius, one of the Fathers of the Church, assigned the Zeus-Europa episode to the time of Moses and the Deucalion Flood, and Augustine wrote that Europa was carried by the king of Crete to his island in the west, "betwixt the departure of Israel out of Egypt and the death of Joshua."(14) The Greeks, like other peoples, spoke of the reversal of the quarters of the earth and not merely ...
434. Emperor Yahou, Part 1 Venus Ch.4 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... The flood of Yahou is sometimes regarded as simultaneous with the flood of Ogyges. The flood of Ogyges did not occur in the third millennium, but in the middle of the second millennium before this era. In the section entitled "The Floods of Deucalion and Ogyges," the synchronism of these devastations with the catastrophes of the days of Moses and Joshua will be demonstrated and supported by ancient and chronological sources. When we summarize what has been told about the time of Yahou, we have the following data: the sun did not set for a number of days, the forests were set on fire, vermin filled the country, a high wave "reaching the sky" ...
435. Catastrophism And Planetary History [Journals] [Kronos]
... been artificially separated by generations of thinkers who understood history as a verbal or mental reality that was given a flowery format by superstitious reporters. When the two accounts of the plagues are placed side by side, as Velikovsky does in the initial chapters of Worlds in Collision, the intensity of that incident clearly stands out and the traditional interpretation of Moses as the divine magician playing with Pharaoh subsides and begins to disappear. That the Hebrews attributed the causative energies to their god there can be no doubt. But that they experienced highly traumatic and unusual happenings cannot be doubted either. When emotion is restored to the interpretation of ancient sources and the same intensity is discovered present in similar descriptions ...

... have done likewise, I found that Samuel Bochart, a scholarly writer of the seventeenth century, in his book Hierozoicon,(13) has a passage in which he maintains that the plagues of the days of the Exodus resemble the calamities that Typhon brought in his train, and that therefore "the flight of Typhon is the Exodus of Moses from Egypt."(14) In this he actually follows the passage transmitted by Plutarch.(15) But since Typhon, according to Pliny and others, was a comet, Samuel Bochart was close to the conclusions at which we arrive, travelling along another route. 1. Mount Casius, mentioned by Apollodorus, is the ...

... population fits the Midrashic comments, long believed exaggerated, about the great multitudes occupying them. As to what Cardona describes as "the evidence of the Medeba map" (actually a mosaic floor of the second century, Common Era): it belongs 2000 years after the time of Abraham, at least, and at least 1500 years after Moses and the Exodus. All that need be said, therefore, is that the framers of that map made the same mistake that Cardona did. They saw the mountain sites and drew their conclusions, but they got it wrong. As to where the sites of the fabled cities should be- that at least is easy: they were ...

... Egypt on the night of the tenth plague; a "mixed multitude" of non-Israelites left Egypt together with the Israelites, who spent their first night in Sukkoth (huts).(13) "The lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook. . . . Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron."(14) They were brought out of Egypt by a portent which looked like a stretched arm"by a stretched out arm and by great terrors," or "with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders."(15 ...

... they stand in the Bible but require scheduling to be fully appreciated. Once that scheduling is done the beauty and simplicity of the instructions become apparent and, for our intentions, most illuminating. We must be aware and appreciate that these instructions must have worked successfully. Quite often in the Bible the Jews are exhorted to follow The Law of Moses'. This comprised not only the Ten Commandments but also all the smaller laws and instructions handed down to Moses through the agency of God. Not least among these were the Sabbath rules. Basically the instructions pertaining to the Sabbath are as follows: the Israelites were to commemorate fifty-one 24 hour Sabbaths and one Sabbath of 48 hours duration ...
