... Egyptian Dynasties, all sorts of revisions have been made which have vitiated the former lists of the 18th and 19th Dynasties, and as a result once again the truth is obliterated. All I need say at this moment is that Menophres was the son of Ramses II, Miammun, and that in the former's reign the Exodus took place under Moses according to Manetho, and so we begin to realize that the Flood epoch took place in a very vital period of pre-history, when, as we are told, the land of Egypt before the catastrophe suffered from the various plagues which compare with the phenomena described by Enoch. In his reign, therefore, happened the terrible event which ...
... of the Winged Globe surmounting a rod, and other symbols. "I would now," observes D'Alviella, "be more inclined to admit that it was first of all an instrument, a weapon, a religious or military ensign."13 Symbolical it was, but in effect it represented a "serpent rod", such as Moses and Aaron produced before Pharaoh, which defeated the inferior rods of the Egyptian Magi to the monarch's great indignation. It is related to the "rods" of the Assyrians which enabled them to march through nations. It was the symbol of a gun, the serpents indicating that it was a weapon which produced fire and slew. It ...
643. A Personal Report on, and Irreverent Look at, the World Conference 'Planetary Violence in Human History' Portland, Oregon, January 3-5, 1997 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... prophets and the early Greek philosophers were contemporaries. When and why did they conceive of celestial motions as not originating in the whim of the gods but as being subject to laws? The largest obstacle these claims is scepticism about the historicity of the spiritual fathers in different areas: they are legendary figures who accrete legends. The best example is Moses: textual criticism has demolished the idea that he wrote the Pentateuch but it is central to Jewish faith. Thales lived during this period of innovation. Diogenes said of Thales that he was the first to teach that water was the source of everything and the cosmos was full of divinity. He discovered the seasons and divided the year in ...
644. "Worlds in Collision": Reviews and Reviewers [Journals] [Aeon]
... ." The editors responded to her objection to Nichols by wondering rhetorically if Worlds in Collision really did support the veracity of the Bible: Or does it follow the line of those who have tried to "explain away" Jesus' miracles or make them acceptable to modern Thomases by attributing them to material causes? Does Dr. Velikovsky present Moses and Joshua as inspired leaders, understanding divine power and supported by it, or as charlatans...attributing to spiritual causes phenomena that the doctor strains credulity to explain...? The Monitor's editorial position, trying to maintain a skeptical balance against Velikovsky on both Christian and scientific grounds, was further exemplified by R. C ...

... now know it? There is a tradition that the 12 labours of Hercules were related to constellations some of which are the same as those in the present zodiac, but not all. The next meeting is planned for Saturday 8th November 1997 at 2pm at 16 Oman Avenue, London NW2. David Salkeld will introduce papers by Damien Mackey concerning Moses and Job and their place in history, followed by discussion. Martian Canyon According to New Scientist, 11th October 1997 (p . 22), the latest pictures from the Mars Global Surveyor, now in orbit around the planet, have revealed a chasm more than twice as deep as the Grand Canyon and extremely steep-sided. According to ...

... . the Huns and the Scythians. In particular there are arguments that this may have been the case concerning the great Scythian invasion of Middle East and Egypt, referred to by Diodorus. Elsewhere [26] I argued that the Hyksos who invaded Egypt at the time of Dudimose (Tutimaios in Manetho), just after the Hebrews escaped under Moses' leadership in 1447 BC, as Velikovsky claimed (cf. [27]) and Rohl [28] confirmed, were Scythians, as wild and destructive as the Mongolians at the time of Genghis Khan, and that their name means exactly the clan of the horsemen. I shall also argue that the place where the Hebrews spent ...

... so far as to say that I see them rushing in the other direction." Derek Shelley-Pearce: "Perhaps you could just shed some light on that, I received this recently from our late esteemed editor of the Review, Malcolm Lowery, chapter 2, the "Story of Jason and the Argo", he ties it up with Moses, but he doesn't name an author, are you aware of this? He mentions here The Mystery of Greek Ancient History"- the Greeks knew they did not originally inhabit the land they came to occupy, the land was originally called Pelasgia and those who lived there called Pelasgians. The Greeks remembered conquering the Pelasgians. The reason ...
648. The Israelite Origins of Monotheism and the Prohibition of Killing [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... , among Israelites, of a general prohibition of killing, I assume that the belief in a single, invisible, and almighty God brings with it the renunciation of human sacrifice to planetary deities. However, as Abraham's achievement cannot be maintained in practice outside Mesopotamian influence, the much clearer formulation of the prohibition (and of monotheism) under Moses remains unexplained. In my opinion Abraham's ability to reject human sacrifice- with monotheistic reasoning through astronomical erudition- is the traditional reason for the Israelite institutionalization of the general prohibition of killing. I shall now pass to the real circumstances of the Exodus as a secondary reinforcement of the renunciation of murder, especially infanticide. It is well known ...

... was toward the end of Jeroboam II's reign, which ended in 753 B.C .( 18) Josephus presents us with an interesting story, not found in the Old Testament, about Uzziah's state of alarm. His response was to usurp the duties of the high priest and offer a sacrifice himself, something forbidden by the law of Moses, and a horrible desecration in the eyes of the priesthood. In addition, at the same time he was struck with a malady which Josephus identifies as leprosy. We think it was a stroke, a result of a ruptured vein in the brain, which was borne from the frenzy of fear of the flyby events of the day ...

... He sacrificed himself to prove humans can resist tyranny and evil, giving people a symbol. Today in Islam they say don't lend to the poor - what everybody does. They changed their terminology - this is not religion. When Jesus introduced the concept of love, this was to show the connection between man and God. Jesus, unlike Moses and Mohammed, never agreed to the persecution of others. M and M put to the sword those who did not believe, in thousands. In Eastern religions and the original Christianity there is no room for such an aggressive action. Benny P said that in Jewish tradition there was a vengeful god who killed thousands and destroyed cities - ...
