Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Shepherd Kings of Egypt It is not difficult to believe that such a son might have been born to Hezron, and have been the head of a Tekoite family, although his name and those of his children never again occur in the annals of the Jews. But how(1 Chron. ii. 24,) did Hezron, who (Genesis xlvi. l2,) went down with his brethren into Egypt, and(1 Chron. ii. 21,) married a daughter of Machir, the grandson of Joseph, there, come to die in Caleb Ephratah, which was situated in Palestine? The question at once arises, "Is this the same Hezron? I think not. I would even question that the father of Asshur bore the name of Hezron, and see in this verse a corruption of the text, of which there are, unhappily, too many in the books of Chronicles. I am compelled, indeed, to regard the appearance of the grandson of Judah in connection with the father of Tekoa as an instance of Rabbinical interpolation or tampering with the original of the genealogies here recorded. Hezron, the son of Pharez, cannot have been in any sense the father of Asshur, although he may have entered upon the domain which was once the possession of this ancient hero. I need not apologize for finding Gentile names in the early chapters of the first book of Chronicles. Lord Arthur Heryey has already found that the Kenezites of chapter iv.13 are not Israelites, and Professor Plumptre has expressed himself in a similar way even in regard to Temeni, one of the sons of Asshur, whom he connects with the Edomites. There is, as I have shewn in my last paper, mention made of professedly Gentile families in different parts of the second and fourth chapters, and the whole argument of that paper has been deemed conclusive for the non-Gentile character of the majority of the genealogies of both of these. The Jerahmeelites, called descendants of a son of Hezron, I have proved to be distinct as a people, not only from the Hezronites, but from the tribe of Judah itself. Turning to the genealogies of Caleb or Chelubai, which is certainly not a Jewish name, we find such Midianite appellations as Rekem and Zur (1Chron. ii. 43, 45; comp. Numbers xxxi.8). Among them also we find Maon, a name applied to no Israelite in any part of the Bible, but designating (Judges x. 12, 2 Chron. xxvi. 7,) an inimical tribe allied with Sidonians and Amalekites, Philistines and Arabians. In 1 Chron. iv. 41, the word erroneously rendered "habitations" in our English version is clearly the name of this tribe, as many writers have indicated.

Book excerpt: After the pharaoh of Egypt suddenly awakens and sits up in bed, sweat drips from his body. Continually plagued by horrifying nightmares, Rahotep is once again shaken to his core. While pacing the palace halls in the dark of the night, he wonders what is happening to him. The dreams surely carry a message from someone. Unfortunately, he has no idea of the source of the important message. Desperate to have his dreams interpreted, Rahotep is visited by Joseph, a faithful Hebrew servant who is rumored to have the gift of foretelling catastrophic events. When Joseph tells him what is to come in the future, Rahotep proclaims Joseph to be second in command of his kingdom. Meanwhile in the Palace of Knossos, the Minoan bull-leapers are preparing for their tournaments. But it is not long before a chain of archeological events, devastating famines, and ruinous plagues overshadow the land and instigate a Hebrew exodus. The Shepherd Kings is a voyage back to a time of pharaohs and prophets and tragedy and triumph that brings an ancient story to life.

This book was released on 2016-08-13 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Egypt Under the Amenemhats and Hyksos And who eventually expelled them from the country. Their departure was the first and greatest Exodus from the Delta, and it became the historic fact around which, in later centuries, the Hebrews hung the tradi tions of their greatness in Egypt, and their expulsion therefrom. In fact, late writers like Josephus have entirely confused this great Exodus with that smaller Exodus during which the descendants of the Patriarch Jacob were obliged to ee to Palestine. The kings of the xviiith Dynasty understood the serious danger with which Egypt was threatened by the nomadic Semitic tribes of her north-east frontier, and took steps immediately to obtain possession of cities and towns in Southern Syria, from which they could control the movements of the restless and rebellious tribes in the neighbourhood. How they succeeded in effecting their purpose is brie y described in this and in the followmg volume. Chronologically, however, the period treated in the present section is full of difficulty, and in the present state of Egyptological knowledge no satisfactory account of it can be given. The compilers of the King Lists were themselves hope lessly perplexed, and it is evident that many parts of their chronological systems are entirely artificial. The Turin Papyrus would probably have helped us out of this difficulty, but no reliance can be placed upon it as an authority for constructing the chronology of Dynasties XII - XVII. In spite of recent assertions to the contrary, the remarks by Rosellini, de Rouge, Birch. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Ancient Egyptian Books of the Earth written by Joshua Aaron Roberson and published by Lockwood Press. This book was released on 2014-06-23 with total page 595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collections of scenes and texts designated variously as the "Book of the Earth," "Creation of the Solar Disc," and "Book of Aker" were inscribed on the walls of royal sarcophagus chambers throughout Egypt's Ramessid period (Dynasties 19-20). This material illustrated discrete episodes from the nocturnal voyage of the sun god, which functioned as a model for the resurrection of the deceased king. These earliest "Books of the Earth" employed mostly ad hoc arrangements of scenes, united by shared elements of iconography, an overarching, bipartite symmetry of composition, and their frequent pairing with representations of the double sky overhead. From the Twenty-First Dynasty and later, selections of programmatic tableaux were adapted for use in private mortuary contexts, often in conjunction with innovative or previously unattested annotations. The present study collects and analyzes all currently known Book of the Earth material, including discussions of iconography, grammar, orthography, and architectural setting.
