... Chronicles', synchronises the early Israelite monarchy of Saul, David, Solomon and Rehoboam with the late XVIII and early XIX Dynasties of Egypt and the Late Bronze Age in Palestine (rather than the XXI and XXII Dynasties and early Iron Age). Part Four, Discovering the Israelites', deals with the time of the patriarchs Joseph, Moses and Joshua, which is synchronised with the Twelfth and Thirteenth Dynasties and the Middle Bronze Age. Part Five consists of five appendices, which cover the dating of Shoshenq I; TIP genealogies; radiocarbon dating; Sothic dating; and Assyrian chronology. Rohl bases his chronological revision on the study of two of the key periods in Egyptian and ...
522. Instability of Super Uranus [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Earth, Gaea. The Chinese legend pictures Heaven as T'ien, at first a marble-like ceiling, unbroken. According to the Iroquois of north Eastern America, the Chief of Heaven was persuaded into marriage by "Fertile Earth" (Awenhai) and impregnated her by his breathing. The Hebrew Book of Genesis, a creative compilation, probably by Moses, of earlier legends, describes in its opening verses the Demiurge brooding over the combined celestial and earthly universe; "The Earth was a formless void, there was darkness over the deep, and God's spirit hovered over the water." as the editors of the Jerusalem Bible comment, most of these images are intended to describe how ...
523. The Laughing Gods [Books] [de Grazia books]
... the lucky god of gamblers, the messenger, the robber, the friendly night. He leads downwards into Styx and upwards into heaven (as a planet rises and sets). He guides the flocks. He is a helper, a healer; he is - writes Otto - Priapus, Tychon, and Perseus. He may have inspired Moses as scientist and electrician. He caries a snake-entwined rod, nowadays the symbol of healing medicine. He is younger than Apollo, older than Athena. He can laugh. His responsibility here is as spectator, apparition, and "extra" brought in to reinforce the climax of the story with more bodies. But he not only laughs ...
524. The Golden Age and Nova of Super Saturn [Books] [de Grazia books]
... - were all accomplished before Saturn appeared. Various scholar identify the Biblical Elohim as Saturn (de Santillana and von Dechend, p146; Tresman and O' Gheoghan; Cardona, 1973a; and others). More likely, the story adopts the designation of god employed during the Saturnian Age (as for example, it was assertedly retold by Moses in Genesis). But "Elohim" at the beginning of Genesis is behaving like the great inactive demiurge brooding over the Pangean chaos, who then becomes activated as Super Uranus in the troubled phase, and creates the world, as mankind, born on the sixth day, received and perceived the Cosmos. Whereupon a more detailed account ...
525. The Oracle of Cadmus [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Jezebel's wrath, he spends 40 days and nights traveling from the Beersheba wilderness to Mount Sinai-Horeb[15] to experience a personal revelation accompanied by fire, wind, and earthquake. This corresponds to the Pentecost/Shavuot-time second Venus contact at the exodus, seven weeks after the first, according to Velikovsky, when the Children of Israel under Moses were assembled at Sinai.[16] Down to Elijah's time the Earth's orbital path may have similarly been littered with debris from the earlier encounter. Pentecost as well as Passover, therefore, might have been a regular season for falls of aromatic and combustible hydrocarbon substances- manna and "fire from heaven". Akhnaton's God As the ...
526. "Stonehenge Viewpoint?" Biased View (Forum) [Journals] [Kronos]
... with the planets. 8. See, for instance, Cicero, De Natura Deorum, 2.20.51; Pliny, Natural History, 2.4 . 9. I. Velikovsky, op. cit., p. 165; Cf. Pseudo-Philo, Biblical Antiquities, ch. 12, where it is stated that when Moses came down from Mount Sinai, "the light of his face overcame the brightness of the Sun and Moon". Likewise, Manilius wrote of Sirius: "Hardly is it inferior to the Sun, save that its abode is far away and the beams it launches from its sea-blue face are cold." - Astronomicon, 1. ...
527. Abraham to Hezekiah: An Archaeological Revision Part II [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... was re-emerging as a major world power. For approximately five centuries Egypt had been dominated by the Hyksos, but these foreigners were finally expelled and Egypt began to rebuild a foreign empire under the leadership of the early 18th dynasty rulers. Velikovsky has identified the Hyksos rulers as the Amalekites of Scripture who invaded Egypt as the Israelites, led by Moses, were leaving.(48) Egypt, so recently devastated by the ten plagues, was unable to resist the foreigners who ruled the land of the Nile during what is known as the Second Intermediate Period. According to Velikovsky's reconstruction the Hyksos/Amalekites ruled in Egypt from the time of the Exodus until the second half of the ...
528. Floods and Tides [Books] [de Grazia books]
... mountain in Armenia, called Baris, upon which it is reported that many who fled at the time of the Deluge were saved; and that one who was carried in an ark came on shore upon the top of it; and that the remains of the timber were for a great while observed: this might be the man about whom Moses the legislator of the Jews wrote... The steady increasing and decreasing of waters is a tidal as well as a deluge phenomenon. The ten-month duration assigned the flood seems more to indicate a long-range tidal attraction of a celestial body; a flood, even if universal, would not take so long to recede as the 74 explicit ...
529. Fire and Ash [Books] [de Grazia books]
... as earlier described, the Tower of Babel succumbed to fire in part. During and after the Exodus, repeated references to the heavenly fire are encountered. It comes in all its forms; lightning, gas blasts, burning naphtha falls. These are elaborately treated by Velikovsky in Worlds in Collision and by the present author in God's Fire: Moses and the Management of Exodus. In all, von Fange quotes 37 different passages from the Bible referring to, or prophesying, destructive fire from heaven [8 ]. Both Donnelly and Velikovsky claim the myth of Phaeton - the one writer for a Great Comet of an earlier age, the other for the events of the mid-second millennium ...
530. Collisions and Upheavals [Journals] [Pensee]
... for several days. On the edge of the darkness, the peoples of Iran witnessed a threefold night and a threefold day. Chinese sources speak of a holocaust during which the sun did not set for many days and the land was aflame. Peoples and nations everywhere, uprooted by disaster, wandered from their homelands. CELESTIAL DRAGON Led by Moses, the Israelites fled the devastation which brought Egypt's Middle Kingdom to an end. As they rushed toward the Sea of Passage, the glistening comet, in form like a dragon's head, shone through the tempest of dust and smoke. The night sky glowed brightly as the comet's head and its writhing, serpentine tail exchanged gigantic electrical bolts ...
