This is a book of pseudo Archaeology, drawn largely from literary references, and an example of arguing from inadequate research. While it was seen as an amusing sidelight to the pursuit of real history, it did stir interest in th period, and certainly made some money for the writer. Dr. Velikovsky, a psychiatrist became quite a well known figure due to series of highly imaginative reconstructions of the sober work done by Petrie, Murray, and later men such as Cunliffe, whose efforts seem to be far more founded in Fact. However this book and its followers did start several lively conversations in my life. Nowadays one could see his corpus becoming useful to the anti-scientific writers in the field of biblical examination. ( ) Imagine if you will, the history you learned of Egypt, the Israelites, the Hyksos, the Minoans, the Assyrians, and the Mycenaeans was out of sync by six hundred years. In essence, six hundred years are missing from the Israelites’ history or six hundred extra years have been added to Egyptian history with events that never occurred, kings who never reigned, and battles with no historical evidence. To add to the confusion, was a geological upheaval that adversely affected the six societies above as the Israelites were leaving Egypt. Velikovsky’s writings were roundly criticized by historians of the day so he decided for this book, he would locate autochthonous writings for each society and compare them for specific periods in time. He appears to have a valid case with these points; 1. Hyksos=Amalekites. 2. Sextus Julius Africanus said the Amalekites were from Arabia 3. The earthquakes and plagues were experienced by both the Hyksos-Amalekites in Arabia and the Hebrews in Egypt. 4. The span of years between the Middle and the New Kingdom isn’t 200 years (according to popular history) but 600 years which is the span of Hyksos-Amalekite rule in Egypt. 5. The Exodus took place during a time geological upheaval and after the Hebrews left Egypt, the Hyksos-Amalekites invaded Egypt 6. Proofs of his theory are taken from Hebrew, Egyptian, and Arabian writings. 7. The Hyksos-Amalekite capital of Auaris will be found by digging at Rhinocular (He was pot on with this; check Archaelogy.org for more info) 8. The Hyksos-Amalekites were defeated by Saul of the Israelites and Kamose who became Pharaoh 9. Hatshepsut = Queen of Sheba, Punt = Palestine 10. Hatshepsut lived at the same time as Solomon 11. Thutmosis III lived at the same time as Rehoboam (son of Solomon) and Jeroboam. Thutmosis III took away the treasures in the Temple of Solomon but left behind the Ten Commandments and the Ark of the Covenant 12. Crete was destroyed by the same geologic upheaval that occurred at Exodus 13. Kadesh = Jerusalem 14. 18th dynasty in Egypt ~ David Solomon ~ Late Minoan ~ Late Mycenaean ~ 1000 B.C (~ means same time period) 15. Retenu = Palestine 16. Amenhotep II = Zerah in Bible = Terra to the Hittites 17. The El Amarna letters were not written 1410-1370 B.C. but in 870-840 B.C. 18. Amenhotep III Akhenaton ~ King Jehosaphat in Jerusalem 19. El Amarna letter ~ Elijah and Elisha in Jerusalem ~ Shalmaneser of Assyria This book is not an easy read but for lovers of Egyptian, Israelite, and Assyrian history, it is a necessity." Although I don't agree with everything Velikovsky writes about, amazingly he has gotten more right than many of the scientists who study such fields (physics, astronomy, history, etc.). This book was a real eye-opener for me, so I bought as many of his other books as I could get my hands on. I am reading them as the mood strikes me and my time allows.

This is the first volume of the series Ages in Chaos, in which Immanuel Velikovsky undertakes a reconstruction of the history of antiquity. With utmost precision and the exciting style of a presentation that's typical for him he shows, beyond doubt, what nobody would consider possible: in the conventional history of Egypt - and therefore also of many neighboring cultures - a span of 600 years is described, which has never happened This assertion is as unbelievable and outrageous as the assertions in Worlds in Collision or Earth in Upheaval. But Velikovsky takes us on a detailed and highly interesting journey through the - corrected - history and makes us a witness to how many question marks disappear, doubts vanish and corresponding facts from the entire Near East furnish a picture of overall conformity and correctness. You will meet an Egyptian eyewitness of the biblical plagues and the mysterious Queen of Sheba. You will find out to where her legendary visit led her. You will, moreover, learn surprising details about the temple of Solomon and learn who was behind its sacking. In the end you do not only wonder how conventional historiography has come into existence, but why it is still taught and published. Just as Velikovsky became the father of "neo-catastrophism" by Worlds in Collision, he became the father of "new chronology" by Ages in Chaos. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
