Book Egypt s Record of Time to the Exodus of Israel  Critically Investigated

This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1869 edition. Excerpt: ...for it obviously excludes the Persian, as we have seen--concurrently with which the native dynasty might thus be understood as prolonged in its unrelinquished rights, though not in power; so that the 135 years of the Persian dynasty in Egypt might doubtfully appear to be included in those of the preceding native dynasty. But again, there are the four Ethiopian kings, who, in the above Manethonian table, are allowed together thirty'six years; and if these were deducted on the same principle, the Canicular Cycle would not be complete at Alexander's date. Manetho might veil this circumstance to suit the purpose of flattering the Greek dynasty; but the sum of the years from the commencement of the cycle would thus strictly be reduced to not more than 1425. The statement of Diodorus here comes to our aid, with its more detailed information, derived probably from Manetho. Fifty'two descendants of Menes, he tells us, reigned more than 1400 years. Menes himself, however, as Eusebius states, reigned sixty years; and the dynastic lists ascribed to Africanus would prolong his reign to the sixty'second. Menes, therefore, and those fifty'two descendants, on this reckoning, reigned together 1461 years, equal to a Canicular Cycle. It is almost as if this duration of the reign of Menes might have been assigned by ancient chronologists just to round off the cycle. But plainly the reign of Menes came within the period preceding the cycle, either as included in the 443 years of the fifteen generations which were counted for the completion of a supposed preceding cycle; or else before even these. The succession of those fifty'two descendants, measured from the beginning of the cycle, being only somewhat more than 1400 years, ...

Book The Exodus

    Book Details:
  • Author : Richard Elliott Friedman
  • Publisher : HarperCollins
  • Release : 2017-09-12
  • ISBN : 0062565265
  • Pages : 222 pages

Download or read book The Exodus written by Richard Elliott Friedman and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Exodus has become a core tradition of Western civilization. Millions read it, retell it, and celebrate it. But did it happen? Biblical scholars, Egyptologists, archaeologists, historians, literary scholars, anthropologists, and filmmakers are drawn to it. Unable to find physical evidence until now, many archaeologists and scholars claim this mass migration is just a story, not history. Others oppose this conclusion, defending the biblical account. Like a detective on an intricate case no one has yet solved, pioneering Bible scholar and bestselling author of Who Wrote the Bible? Richard Elliott Friedman cuts through the noise — the serious studies and the wild theories — merging new findings with new insight. From a spectrum of disciplines, state-of-the-art archeological breakthroughs, and fresh discoveries within scripture, he brings real evidence of a historical basis for the exodus — the history behind the story. The biblical account of millions fleeing Egypt may be an exaggeration, but the exodus itself is not a myth. Friedman does not stop there. Known for his ability to make Bible scholarship accessible to readers, Friedman proceeds to reveal how much is at stake when we explore the historicity of the exodus. The implications, he writes, are monumental. We learn that it became the starting-point of the formation of monotheism, the defining concept of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Moreover, we learn that it precipitated the foundational ethic of loving one’s neighbors — including strangers — as oneself. He concludes, the actual exodus was the cradle of global values of compassion and equal rights today.

Tell the children of Israel to go forward. But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea. And I indeed will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them. So I will gain honor over Pharaoh and over all his army, his chariots, and his horsemen. Then the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I have gained honor for Myself over Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen.'" - Exodus 14 The story of the Ancient Israelites in Egypt is one of the most famous stories in the world, and one of the most contentious from a historical standpoint. Today, most people know about the relationship between the ancient Israelites and the Egyptians from the Old Testament book of Exodus, and the numerous feature films that often depict the dealings between the two peoples in contentious ways. The deadly plagues, the crossing of the Red Sea, the arduous 40 years the Israelites spent in the desert, and the Ten Commandments all make the Exodus unforgettable, but they've also left generations of scholars wondering just how accurate the Scripture is, with some seeking to prove the historicity of the account and others trying to tie it to the Babylonian exile of the Israelites in the 7th century BCE. It is true that the Egyptians and Israelites had, at times, a difficult relationship that stemmed from Egypt's status as an imperial power and the Israelites as a conquered people, but their shared history began long before the Biblical Exodus, and continued long after both peoples were no longer relevant as ancient powers. Indeed, a closer examination of the Israelites' ties to Egypt reveals that there is more to the story than just the book of Exodus, and that the fortunes and miseries of the Israelites were often inextricably intertwined with that of their Egyptian neighbors. The story of the Israelites in Egypt begins in the first book of the Old Testament, Genesis, when the Israelites were known as Hebrews, and ends after Egypt passed under foreign rule and the Israelites became known by their more modern appellation: Jews. The Old Testament provides the backbone of the ancient sources for the story of Israelite-Egyptian relations, but archaeological evidence from Egypt and the Levant, along with textual sources from Egypt and Mesopotamia, also provide a fuller picture of the two peoples' geopolitical interactions. A study of the sources reveals that ancient Israelite-Egyptian relations were truly complex, and that the events of the Exodus were merely just a few in a series that ebbed and flowed, according to the desires and abilities of either people. Both the Israelites and Egyptians used their relationship with the other in order to obtain wider geopolitical objectives in the ever changing world of the late Bronze Age and early Iron Age Near East, and at times they battled together against other nations, notably the Babylonians and Assyrians. The Ancient Israelites in Egypt: The History of the Egyptian Enslavement of the Jews and the Exodus to the Promised Land looks at the historical record behind some of the world's most famous events. Along with pictures depicting important people, places, and events, you will learn about the Israelites in Egypt like never before.
