... family leader, or prince. The elippe that float and carry cargo and people were ships and the elippe that dabbled in the affairs of men are possibly chieftains. if so, it would also explain some apparent exaggerations in the Hebrew record. For example, since "eleph" is "thousand", a wall falling and killing twenty seven thousand people would more likely have been a wall falling on twenty seven "chieftains". The words ilph a, aluph and eleph all have the forms aleph, lamed, phe. Gold and silver are always popular, but the popularity of some items is a function of time. During the time of Amenhotep Ill and IV ( ...
232. Night of the Gods: The Pillar-Axis as Tower [Books]
... Fomorach. The Fomorians were the ocean-giants of the North, of Lochlann. Now here is a mythic plain of a mythic tower, which I theorise to be but another of the endless cosmic symbolisings of the plain of the heavens and its tower-axis of the universe. This great battle of the war in-heaven has, like its parallel of the Seven against Thebes, a doublet in the second battle of Moytura between the same powers, Seven years afterwards. Nuadha Silverhand (airgeatlaimh) and Lugh Longarms (lamh-fada) and Balar Evileye or Mightyblows are of course divine powers; and the battle takes place on the eve of Samain (Baal-shemain = Lord of heavens) our All-Halloween. The ...
233. Paired Sets in the Hebrew Alphabet [Journals] [Aeon]
... the Egyptian words mentioned above. The eighth letter of the alphabet, heth, has a name that sounds similar to Hebrew ahath, ehad, "one," which in turn resembles Egyptian hat, "front," "forepart," "beginning." We should note that in cyclical terms, the eighth in a cycle of seven is the first- the beginning- in the next cycle of seven, and also that the number seven in the Middle East is "specially sacred, symbolic, perfect and mystic, and it has always been so (Budge 1930:433)." Among other things relating to seven, the seven day week is supposed to ...
234. The Two Faces of Love [Books] [de Grazia books]
... understandable (" Beaufort 10" in navigation has the surface of the sea foaming, hence sperm) and a turbulent setting in which Aphrodite-Moon (does Dione relate to Diana?) was destructively involved and Zeus' activity might have been construed as an attempted (and actual) ravishment of the Moon in the days of the birth of Athena seven hundred and more years before the Love Affair. The Homeric "Hymn to Athena" reproduced in chapter X chants of the foaming seas resulting from her birth. "Sea" foam, we can see, had reason to be brought in a second time on a later date. Of the name "Aphrodite" itself, a case ...
235. The Ring of Truth by Isaac Vail [Books]
... happen when this immense ocean of vapor condenses? Will the rapid vapors unite with the tardy ones and form a single large ring, or will the mass segregate into independent rings of different velocities? It is plain that a ton of matter moving at the rate of 25,000 miles per hour cannot coalesce with a ton of matter moving seven thousand miles per hour slower, any more than two projectiles with these different velocities can strike the same target at the same time, or move together in the same orbit. When these vapors condense they must occupy much less space, and the inevitable tendency would be for the outer vapor to condense into a ring by itself. The ...

... Lagash, "also relate his efforts to impose respect for earlier customs and to curb the rapacity of priests and officials in oppressing the poor with illegal exhortations."(110) Fragments of the code of Ur-Nammu of Ur have also been found.(111) Then there are the ana ittishu, extracts from ancient codes which preserve the seven "Sumerian Family Laws," together with three tablets upon which are inscribed "some 25 laws in the Sumerian language," three of which actually correspond with provisions in Hammurabi's famous code.(112) There is also a code from Eshnunna which, while not as old as some of these others, is still 50 years older ...

238. The Legends of the Jews: Volume III [Books]
... thou believe that one who has construction of the Tabernacle in his hands will remain a poor man?" Moses said nothing, but resolved, as soon as the Tabernacle should have been completed, to lay an exact account before the people, which he did. But when it came to giving his account, he forgot one item of seven hundred seventy-five shekels which he had expended for hooks upon which to hang the curtains of the Tabernacle. Then, as he suddenly raised his eyes, he saw the Shekinah resting on the hooks and was reminded of his omission of this expenditure. Thereafter all Israel became convinced that Moses was a faithful and reliable administrator. [358] ...

... will say, If Moses, through whom the Torah and the laws were given to us, does not make the pilgrimage to the sanctuary, how much less do we need to do so! ' Thou wouldst then cause nonobservance of My commandments. I have, furthermore, written in the Torah through thee, At the end of every seven years, in the set time of the year of release, when all Israel is come to appear before the Lord thy God, in the place which He shall choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their hearing. ' If thou wert to live thou shouldst put Joshua's authority in the eyes of all Israel to ...
