... 800 years (more exactly: in 794 1/3 years). By means of the average of 800 years which it took the conjunction to pass from one "fiery triplicity" to the other, Kepler reconstructed history: 4000 B.C .

493. The Empire Strikes Back [Books] [de Grazia books]
... phrase "to smite the houses" refers to an earthquake in view of the fact that Eusebius, St. Jerome, and the Midrashim all confirm this interpretation. Margolis' sarcastic repetition of the word "obvious" is wholly without justification. Margolis accuses Velikovsky of saying that St. Augustine puts the birth of Minerva at the time of Moses whereas Augustine "says the opposite." This would be a serious charge if true but it is doubly untrue, both as to Augustine and Velikovsky. The relevant passage in The City of God (Book XVIII, Chapter 8) reads that Minerva was born in the time of Ogyges and Velikovsky quotes it (Worlds in Collision, ...
494. The Velikovsky Affair [Books] [de Grazia books]
... which notwithstanding all its absurdities has been received with great applause [56]. Whiston was ridiculed for quoting the Old Testament in matters of astronomy and at the same time, condemned for not having taken literally the story of creation in Genesis: He says that the common notion of the work of six days is absolutely false, and that Moses' description is not an exact and philosophical account of the origin of the universe. ' On the first point Buffon declared that the true naturalist must leave the interpretation of the Scriptures to the theologians, and on the second point he agreed with Newton that the solar system is so exquisitely designed to operate in the most perfect manner' ...

... , which has a close affinity in sound with their word for Buck, and so they made the celebrated tower into a hunter. ' ! ! In the last year, the developing method of Phillip Clapham has irresistibly reminded me of Mackey. The reader may also call to mind Patrick Moore's unkind comparison of Velikovsky with the man who identified Moses with Middlebury, because both began with the letter M' (Do You Speak Venusian). Velikovsky stretched the boundaries of philology in making some of his identifications but rarely to the breaking point. Generally he cited an authority or gave clear examples of analogous derivation to support his ideas. I am afraid Phillip Clapham fails to support his ...

... seems, because of the actual physiological effect of food shortage in its various aspects . . ." Mr O'Gheoghan might like to consider this: it certainly corresponds to what commonsense would lead us to expect. Whilst it does not weaken his case for radiation-induced barrenness, it means we must retain famine as strong alternative explanation. (ed) Moses and Monotheism Sir, With a legalist and an economist of the University of Bremen (at which I teach), I am working on population study, in which the prohibition of killing is taken as a variable to be considered. I am concerned to go behind this and explain the killing-taboo from historical conditions, and this led me ...

... of electrical potential between split rocks, such as the Brazen Threshold' of the Oedipus at Colonus. Visits to mountain tops, where lightning was known to strike frequently, aided if necessary by a bothros as at Chamaizi. Fires on hill tops may in some instances have been mimesis, in an attempt to atttract lightning. The reports of Moses and his visit to Mount Sinai would have been influential. Worship of the bull: protection of the Apis bull. Slaughter of bulls and goats. Drowning the bull for the release of the divine element. Eating the bull; compare the Etruscan vacl, banquet.

... be ascribed to the symbol. I would also suggest that the "sandal-strap" meaning is perfectly in order. The foot is a common unconscious symbol of the phallus - ask your nearest psychiatrist. Binding the foot makes it androgynous, neutralises it, brings it under control. ALFRED DE GRAZIA Dept. of Politics New York University Mutwa, Moses and Myth Sir, I want to express first my great satisfaction with the Glasgow Conference and to thank especially all the organisers whose efforts made it such a success. The open spirit of the debates was a wonderful experience, which I hope will continue in your pages. It was marvellous to meet everybody. I also want to express ...

... , etc., instituted by Herod in his theatres, were still, as we see here, looked on by the sober Jews as heathenish sports, and tending to corrupt the manners of the Jewish nation, and to bring them in love with paganish idolatry, and paganish conduct of life, but to the dissolution of the law of Moses, and accordingly were greatly and justly condemned by them, as appears here and every where else in Josephus. Nor is the case of our modern masquerades, plays, operas, and the like "pomps and vanities of this wicked world," of any better tendency under Christianity. (14) Here we have an eminent example ...
