... of the modern medical profession). It resembles the Hindu trisula, which in turn "bears a singular resemblance to the sign of the planet Mercury...."[37]. Furthermore the caduceus "produced fire and would slay," says Goblet [38]. It is too similar to the serpent-entwined magical staff of Moses for the staff to have been independently contrived by him. In the turbulent electrical atmosphere of the times, wands could be made to produce glowing and crackling discharges with fair reliability. Thus would priests be tied to the gods [39]. It may also be notable that the Hebrew word for "planet" and "luck" ...
... North Pole. Why not call it "oblique" or slanting right away [n22 We have more of this mythological species of oblique posts or trees — e.g ., the Rigvedic "sacrificial post"— and even Bears are not afraid to inhabit the one or the other. See F. G. Speck and J. Moses, The Celestial Bear Comes Down to Earth: The Bear Sacrifice Ceremony of the Munsee-Mohican in Canada (1945).]? 159 Whether bent or oblique, Grimm rightly says that it is "worthy of remark that Hallinskidi and Heimdal are quoted among the names for the ram [n23 TM, p. 234. Rydberg (p ...

... will send forth the sceptre of thy strength out of Zion" (Ps. 110: 2). Moloch and Typhon signify Lords and have sceptres too. Prehistoric stone age cultures have rods, "batons." carved with animals and occasionally with phallic shapes or as snakes, ultimately achieving the storied fame of the brazen serpent's rod of Moses [43]. Snakes appear everywhere in early human symbolism [44]. Like the rod, the cometary analogy - the writhing form slithering through the sky - is too obvious to be missed. The earliest Chinese Dragon was serpentlike but with feet. Until recently it was taught in Christian schools that the serpent of the Garden of ...

... location of Pi-Ramses which together with Pi-Thom were the store houses built by the enslaved sons of Israel under the viziership of Ramesses I. For those of us who are in any way supportive of the Heinsohn reconstruction of history, it is interesting that whereas there seemed little hope of doing other than relegate Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph and Moses to the realms of celestial mythology, Osman's conclusions appear to have provided an opening for these persons being historical characters, albeit at a much later stage of history in which the 18th Dynasty is shown to commence in the 7th century BC. One other writer has also placed Joseph in the 18th Dynasty to my knowledge, and that is ...

... a "doorpost," or frame of a door at such an improbable place as Huwawa's great cedar "forest." Why not also try to look out for the "enclosing of Gog and Magog" accomplished by Alexander and told still in the 18th Sura of the Koran, the same Sura which deals with the coming to life of Moses' travel-supply-fish at the "confluence of the rivers?" This "enclosure" is a great theme of medieval folklore, kept fearsomely alive by the sudden appearance of Mongol invasions. The story ran that Alexander had built iron gates over the mountain passes, that the monstrous brood of the Huns, spawning over the limitless plains of the ...
627. Catastrophism and Anthropology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... various theomachies and apocalypses of the ancient documents as distorted reports about cosmic disasters. Consequently, he became the father of modern catastrophism' (Clube) and the first scholar who, again, related past catastrophes to religious beliefs, ceremonies and rituals [52]. On Aegean sites, archaeological research has produced almost identical findings. Thus, Moses Finley used the classical term for the ancient flood and fire catastrophe [] in order to point out the difference to human destructions. Archaeology', Finley claimed, reveals cataclysms, but it cannot tell us the circumstances or even who the participants were' [53]. And from another angle, Finley underlined the catastrophic aspect of ...
628. Three Views of Heinsohn's Chronology [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... be among the oldest of civilisations. It was the already advanced Assyrians who brought civilisation to Egypt! But it is not only the Egyptians who are exposed by Heinsohn's hypothesis. The Hebrews were guilty of the same thing. They spoke of an advanced literate civilisation in Israel centuries before the Assyrians arrived. Thus not only Abraham, but also Moses, Joshua, the Judges, David, Solomon, along with the entire histories of the northern and southern kingdoms, must be consigned to the realms of mythology - or at best allegory. And this is indeed what we find Dr Heinsohn doing. But the difficulties do not end there. On the contrary, they spread to every ...
629. The Burning of Troy [Books] [de Grazia books]
... the earth the proverbial "wrath of the gods," not only Olympian gods, but Hebrew, Egyptian, Babylonian, Olmec and other gods [35]. Unfortunately, for twenty-five years, the assemblages of ideas and facts of Schaeffer and Velikovsky, "an extraordinary polymath," in the words of the late Columbia University classicist, Moses Hadas, were subjected to unscientific vilification. Schaeffer, Professor at the Sorbonne and a renowned excavator, has been hardly cited for his magnum opus. Few scholars have been ready to confront the anomalies of their own findings. One exception was Spiridon Marinatos, who plunged to his death in 1974 at the famous site of his work. ...
630. A Catastrophist Reading of Religious Systems [Journals] [SIS Review]
... be destroyed in the future as it was (or almost was) in the past. Mosaic Judaism contains no Armageddon. The perceptive individual, therefore, should be concerned with how to live a proper life on Earth, not with the afterlife, for such concepts in my opinion (pace Maimonides) did not enter Judaism until long after Moses. The world can be made better, says Judaism, it can actually be perfected and God wants it so, and that alone is the divinely-ordained mission of the believer, through whose observance and purification this world and the people in it can be purified. The emphasis is heavily actual. Mosaic Judaism can therefore also be read as ...
