... so, as his beloved Princess-Forward turns out to be extremely jealous. Now, after this Far Eastern interlude, Samson's own tragedy can be seen in better focus (Judges XVI): 173 19. And [Delilah] made him sleep upon her knees; and she called for a man, and she caused him to shave off the seven Iocks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him. 20. And she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he wist not that ...

... and April 8, 1955 8 .Johnson in Libby, Radiocarbon Dating, p. 106. 9. In the field of archaeology, I expect the radiocarbon tests to confirm that the time of the Eighteenth Dynasty in Egypt must be reduced by five to six hundred years, and the time of the Nineteenth and Twentieth Dynasties by a full seven hundred years, as I maintain in Ages in Chaos. ...
524. Prologue: The Good Earth (Mankind in Amnesia) [Velikovsky]
... possibly on different orbits, had developed life on them. Gone forever are the little green men- the Venusians, the claimed sighting of whom was accepted as a fact by gullible people. Then there were the Martians, a breed of strange design, who existed in the fantasy of many but were detected by nobody. It is nearly seven and a half billion miles across the orbit of the farthest planet, and over twenty-five trillion miles to the next star, with the domain of our Sun stretching over an area of an equal diameter. Our solar system is meaningful, more than for anything else, as the abode of man. Nature is certainly generous and free-spending to ...
525. Galileo And Giordano. Ch.2 To Know And Not To Know (Mankind in Amnesia) [Velikovsky]
... pantheist Giordano Bruno, who removed both the Sun and the Earth from their exalted positions by pronouncing the fixed stars to be suns, themselves surrounded by planets. Galileo and Giordano were punished according to their trespasses: Galileo to eighteen days in the prison of the Inquisition and house arrest till the end of his life; Giordano Bruno to over seven years' imprisonment and death at the stake. Bruno, however, renounced not only the Aristotelian immovable Earth in the center of the universe, but also the dogma of the Immaculate Conception. This he had done early in his life, when he deserted his cell in the Dominican monastery at Nola on the slopes of Vesuvius- a ...
526. Dismayed And Confounded. Ch.7 Chronicle Of Our Time (Mankind in Amnesia) [Velikovsky]
... shown to uncounted millions, the Russians export their art to Greece- the Bolshoi Ballet- but the Americans export atomic weapons; the Greek organisers of a demonstration of protest against atomic weapons are mauled and the permit for a public meeting is revoked. In Soviet Russia, however, no such permit would ever be asked for or given. Seven brave men who one day assembled on the huge Red Square to demonstrate for liberties were sent to psychiatric wards, this being the new punishment for dissent, whereby the government avoids the embarrassing situation of holding trials of people whose only crime is unconventional thinking. Then where is the land of promise? Are the eight hundred million blue ants ...
527. Amenhotep III and Tiy. Part 1 (Oedipus and Akhnaton) [Velikovsky]
... is permeated with love for boys, which is also honored by this literature."7 Before that, in Athens at the end of the seventh and the beginning of the sixth centuries, sexual relations between a man and a youth were so general and the people of Athens were so little scandalized by it that Solon, one of the seven wise men of ancient Greece, referred to pederasty as the privilege of a free man.8 Before ascribing to their gods this unnatural urge, the Greeks had to come to regard it as respectable. It is true that Homer did not attribute to the warriors of the Achaean host relations that were later called "Greek love," ...

... of evil . . . it expiates mortal sin and forms the one insuperable barrier to the attacks of Aeshm, the incarnation of Fury (Sayast la-Sayast, VIII. 18; XVIII, 3f.); it is especially obnoxious to demons, whose power it impairs (Dinkart, III. 82); it is the second of the seven good works of religion, its neglect the fourth of the thirty heinous sins, and it is the ninth of the thirty-three ways of gaining heaven. It is even said to have been prescribed by Zarathustra as the eighth of his ten admonitions to mankind (Dinkart, III. 195)."9 This religious book of Dinkart also ...
529. King Ay and a "Tumult of Hatred". Part 2 (Oedipus and Akhnaton) [Velikovsky]
... in denying burial to an unhonored and unhallowed corpse, "a time not long to be delayed shall awaken the wailing of men and women in thy house. And a tumult of hatred against thee stirs all cities. . . ." We may figure out who the avengers were: these were the Epigoni. In Greek tradition, the Seven against Thebes and their armies were repelled, but after ten years their sons, the Epigoni, returned and ravished Thebes. From whence came the foreign bands, first called by Smenkhkare to help him to regain the throne, will be disclosed in the light of the history of the period that followed the close of the Eighteenth Dynasty, ...
530. Introduction (Peoples of the Sea) [Velikovsky]
... being of the very long-lived cedar of Lebanon, could cause the divergence and if only short-lived material like reed, seed, or papyrus was used the result would point to ca. -840. Dr. Ralph confirmed that radiocarbon age is a reflection of the time the rings were formed, not when the tree was felled. But it took seven more years. In the spring of 1971 the British Museum Laboratory processed reed and seed from the tomb of Tutankhamen-namely, the reed of a mat and kernels of a palm. The latter showed the age of-899 and the former of -846. I learned these figures from a letter by Dr. Edwards, curator of Egyptology in the British ...
