... underground, and are altogether different in nature and habit from the denizens of the upper world. (28) When the Cainite wanted to descend to his dwelling-place again, it appeared that he could not return thither. Not even Asmodeus could bring the thing about. So he remained on earth, took unto himself a wife, and begot seven sons, one of whom resembled his father in having two heads. When the Cainite died, a dispute broke out among his descendants as to how the property was to be divided. The double-headed son claimed two portions. Both Solomon and the Sanhedrin were at a loss; they could not discover a precedent to guide them. Then ...

... , like Velikovsky's own, is however based on the laudatory hymns of the Rig Veda. There is more to the Maruts than that. Forrest, like Velikovsky, whom he criticizes for being selective, failed to take the origin, history, and evolution of the Maruts into consideration. Some of this follows below. Originally the Maruts numbered seven.(14) As the seven children of Saturn, they may be compared with the sevenfold ring which surrounded the Saturnian Sun of Night in primeval times.(15) These seven rings were also the original Pleiades.(16) In Hindu mythology, the god of the planet Mars (Kartikeya/Skanda/ Kumara)( ...

... peculiar to God. But the space of the twenty cubits, is, as it were, sea and land, on which men live, and so this part is peculiar to the priests only. But at the front, where the entrance was made, they placed pillars of gold, that stood on bases of brass, in number seven; but then they spread over the tabernacle veils of fine linen and purple, and blue, and scarlet colors, embroidered. The first veil was ten cubits every way, and this they spread over the pillars which parted the temple, and kept the most holy place concealed within; and this veil was that which made this part ...
... REIGN OF DARIUS, ZOROBABEL WAS SUPERIOR TO THE REST 1N THE SOLUTION OF PROBLEMS AND THEREBY OBTAINED THIS FAVOR OF THE KING, THAT THE TEMPLE SHOULD BE BUILT. 1. AFTER the slaughter of file Magi, who, upon the death of Cambyses, attained the government of the Persians for a year, those families which were called the seven families of the Persians appointed Darius, the son of Hystaspes, to be their king.

... common all over the world. The number of ages differs from people to people and from tradition to tradition. The difference depends on the number of catastrophes that the particular people retained in its memory, or on the way it reckoned the end of an age. In the annals of ancient Etruria, according to Varro, were records of seven elapsed ages. Censorinus, an author of the third Christian century and compiler of Varro, wrote that "men thought that different prodigies appeared by means of which the gods notified mortals at the end of each age. The Etruscans were versed in the science of the stars, and after having observed the prodigies with attention, they recorded ...

... , of course, because variations in the suns energy output do not fit in with his scenario! Accordingly, Is.30:26 receives no mention in "Again Isaiah" " Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the Lord bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wound. Behold, the name of the Lord cometh from afar, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire: And ...

... Oxfordshire Refs: 1. K.A . Kitchen, The Third Intermediate Period in Egypt, Aris & Phillips Ltd., Warminster, 1986, p. 407, para. 369. The Queen of Sheba Adam Green (Letters, C&CR 1997:2 ) has suggested that the word Sheba' should perhaps read Sheva = seven. Adam is thinking in terms of a Queen that was Egyptian rather than a goddess consort of the god of Jerusalem, Salmanu (variously Hyam Maccoby and Tom Chetwynd in SIS). It is worth noting that goddesses such as Anath and Ishtar were closely associated with the number 7 and Isis with 70. Indeed, the dance of ...
