... the Israelites, and so trap them on that desolate sand bar between the Mediterranean and the lake. Thus, if a Thera tsunami arrived during the escape the small force of pursuing Egyptians might have been overwhelmed, but any forces sent along the highway south of the lake would probably have survived. They still would have been able to attack Moses and his followers as they exited from the eastern end of the sand spit. The Yahwist's route which avoids the concentration of Egyptian forts along the "Way of the Philistines" is much more likely to be correct. It presumes an escape along the Wadi Tumilat to the "Wilderness Road" across Sinai (or perhaps south into Sinai ...
482. The Stone of Shamir (Vox Populi) [Journals] [Kronos]
... .(2 ) To the Greek and Latin information about the comet that Velikovsky gathered with truly marvellous painstaking, I am now able to add a notice I found in Gershom Scholem's Sabbatai Sevi: The Mystical Messiah.(3 ) On page 438 of this fascinating volume we learn that, in the year 1666, a young man called Moses Suriel from Brussa, Turkey, presented himself to fellow Jews as a prophet, upholding the claim of Shabatai Zevi (Sabbatai Sevi) to the crown of anointed (christ) sovereign and savior of the Israelites. "By way of confirming his message he pointed to a comet that had appeared in those days, and explained that the ...

... made in about 1500 BC or whenever it was- where are the fossils from that period? Dr Milton: How do you know that, when we take some- to choose an era at random- take a Cretaceous specimen, that in fact it's not from 1500 BC? Questioner 1: My point is that, for example when Moses and his lads were taking a trip along this Valley and when the Earth did its jog, and the mile-high sea would indicate that the collapse would be accompanied by this phenomenon, why don't we find complete soldiers, or parts of soldiers, that clearly come from that historical era- fossilised? Dr Milton: They find mixtures of ...

... a non-existent Dark Age in the ancient near-east and Mediterranean due to a miscalculated chronology of ancient Egypt. Rohl's theory is said to be revolutionary' and demonstrates that archaeologists have been looking in the right places for evidence of the Israelites – but in completely the wrong time' – and also, For the first time the lives of Joseph, Moses, Joshua, Saul, David and Solomon are examined from an historical perspective .. .. '. Pioneering'?, Revolutionary'?, For the first time'? I think not!James may have subsequently produced a different chronology to that of Velikovsky (and, with his own revision, gone more into depth) ...
485. The 1552 Exodus [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Joseph" (Exodus 1:8 ) was likely the Hyksos Salatis, who took control of the Egyptian delta about 1663. The sons of Israel were "more and mightier" (Exodus 1:9 ) than the Hyksos, but it was a Hyksos pharaoh who oppressed the Israelites as slaves. It was a Hyksos princess who adopted Moses. The Egyptian pharaoh Ahmose drove the Hyksos from the delta, and the sons of Israel got a new taskmaster. When Moses returned to Egypt the Hyksos who sought his life were all dead (Exodus 4:19), crushed by the Egyptians. Now it was God's turn to crush the Egyptians. The pharaoh of the Exodus ...
486. Discussion [Journals] [Aeon]
... all follow with such interest. If it were not for his hidden fundamentalism, we would not likely have anything to discuss here and now. In truth, can anyone honestly say that their research into the complex and intriguing subject of man's historic career on this planet is completely unbiased by a hidden agenda? Which of us is not like Moses, striving to see the "face of God," hoping to carry the truth to a "wayward" people? Who among us is not trying to trace his roots to the "beginning" to see the "first cause?" Is this not blatant Biblical fundamentalism on the face of it? Why, then, should ...
487. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Review]
... used to detect underground water by picking up a minute electrical signal produced when ground above water is hit. Another strange phenomenon is that of booming sands from certain deserts and dunes around the world. Electrical charges can build up in dry sand and may be part of the explanation for why these sands emit sounds from time to time. The Moses coil defies gravity New Scientist 26.7 .97, pp. 42-43 Two Japanese researchers succeeded in recreating the Red Sea phenomenon by surrounding a tube of water with a coil of superconducting wire. When a current flowed in the wire, creating a magnetic field in the tube, the water parted and moved to the ends of the ...

... the following context: "Why really, the river is blood. If one drinks of it, one rejects (it) as human and thirsts for water." (ANET p. 441, col. 2) This does tie in neatly with Ex. 7:20 and Ex. 7:24, thus: "And Moses and Aaron did so, as the Lord commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and smote the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood." (7 :20) "And all ...

... , it had resulted for the Jews in their release from bondage, and this gave them a new dignity and self-respect - reinforced by such episodes as the destruction of Sennacherib's army - which led them to feel that Man was far more important in the universe than polytheism allowed. This feeling was strengthened by the arrival of a great leader, Moses, who had the ability to give the new nation a direction, whilst providing a doctrinal interpretation of both celestial and earthly events. (Mr Maccoby did not feel that the message of Man's greatness was taken as applying solely to the Jews, but thought the Jews felt chosen to carry the message to mankind as a whole.) ...
