 Marduk's Competition

 in the Age of Aries:

 the Hebrews

 and Moses and Elijah

                  

    

      Marduk, son of the god Enki, was a full-blooded Anunnaki, but married the human Sarapanit, daughter of the biblical Enoch.   For a long time commander of those astronauts who manned the space station on Mars, he had the sympathy and support of these villains of both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, who in Genesis 6:2 "---saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose." Immediately after Marduk's wedding, these divine "sons of God" started a rebellion that, so far as the Bible is concerned, is still going on as I write this.    Shamgazl, the leader of this rebellious group, is the "Satan" of the Bible.

      After many other adventures that I have not mentioned in this short series of pages, Marduk has a half-human, half-divine son named Nabu, who Marduk sent forth to recruit soldiers and kings who are prepared to accept Marduk as their god, and turn their backs on the traditional gods they served before.   

       Critical to Marduk's plans are a group of five cities in the plain where the Dead Sea is now located.   Nabu gains their allegiance, and when they revolt from their original gods 4 kings from Mesopotamia attack to bring them back into subservience, taking Lot captive.  Ibruum (Abraham), a general not a shepherd, rescues Lot and vanquishes the marauding kings."

       "Ibruum (Abraham's) goal is to protect the Anunnaki space port in the Sinai peninsula, but the Bible neglects to tell us that, its main Old Testament plot being to promote One God, whose name is YHWH - Jehovah, Who has no need for spacecraft.   But Who does have a close association with a mountain in the Sinai, where He lives amongst smoke and fire, speaks with a voice of thunder, and carves commandments in stone tablets with his finger.   (Exodus 19, 20 etc)"

      "Obviously the biblical editors promoting "Moses" and his laws are remembering, and alluding to the fire and smoke that destroyed another mountain in the Sinai, and the Celestial Chariots  parked nearby.  But many years passed between Abraham and Moses, and a lot of history got lost during this period of time."

      "Because we depend on the Bible to tell us what we need to know we fail to note the glaring descrepancies and contradictions.   So here's Lot, living again in Sodom, now supposedly taken over by homo- sexuals, whose vile activities force YHWH, who is a hater of homosexuals, to destroy not only Sodom, where these homosexuals live, but also 4 other cities about which we know very little."  

      "In the real history, Marduk and Nabu, living now in Babylon, hardly miss the people who used to live in the smoking ruins of the Cities of the Plain, but go on to a bright future in Babylon, while all the former cities of the gods south of Babylon are contaminated by radiation and their former inhabitants either fled or dead."

Marduk, God of "Aries"

       "The Lost Book of Enki"  ends with Marduk and Nabu his part human son being accepted by the other Anunnaki gods as being ruler of the Middle East and Egypt, which was the civilized world of 2000 BC. 

      Page 315 "Babili (Babylon), where Marduk supremacy declared, by the Evil Wind was spared;  All the lands south of Babili the Evil Wind devoured, the heart of the Second Region it also  touched.   When in the aftermath of the Great Calamity Enlil and Enki to survey the havoc met,  Enki and Enlil the sparing of Babili as a divine omen considered."

      "That Marduk to supremacy has been destined, by the sparing of Babili is confirmed!   So did Enki to Enlil say.   The will of the Creator of All it must have been!  Enlil to Enki said."

--------------

      "Beseiged by thoughts, Enki a decision made:  All the events and decisions, starting with Nibiru to this day on Earth,   To put in a record, a guide to future generations to become;   Let posterity, at a time by destiny designated,   The record read, the Past remember, the Future as prophecy understand,  Let the Future of the Past the judge be!   These are the words of Enki, Firstborn of Anu of Nibiru."

Fourteenth Tablet

   The words of the Lord Enki.

Written from the mouth of the great lord Enki,  not one word missed, not one word added, by the master scribe Endubar, a man of Eridu, son of Udbar.   By the lord Enki with long life I have been blessed."

Enuma Elish Tablets

 

NOTE by Dr. Robert F. Holt, MD, MPH.  I first became really interested in Zechariah Sitchin's books in July 1993 and read through 2 or 3 of them in that month.  He seemed to be giving reasonable answers for some puzzling topics in the Bible.   When I read about the Nuclear Holocaust in The Lost Book of Enki written in 2002, I was critical, thinking perhaps this was not supported by the original.  So I went back to his 1985 book The Wars of Gods and Men. There it was with full documentation.

Wars of Gods and Men

"The Fateful Century"

BC 2123   Abraham born in Nippur.

      2113   Enlil entrusts the Lands of Shem to Nannar; Ur declared capital of the new empire.   Ur-Nammu ascends throne, is named protector of Nippur.   A Nipperian priest -- Terah, Abraham's father -- comes to Ur to laison with its royal court.

      2096  Ur-Nammu dies in battle.   The people consider this untimely death a betrayal by Anu and Enlil.   Terah departs with his family for Harran.

     2095  Shulgi ascends the throne of Ur, strengthens imperial ties.  As empire thrives, Shulgi falls under charms of Inanna, becomes her lover.  Grants Larsa to Elamites in exchange for serving as his foreign legion.

     2080  Theban princes loyal to Ra/Marduk press northward under Mentuhotep I.  Nabu, Marduk's son, gains adherents for his father in Western Asia.

     2055  On Nannar's orders, Shulgi sends Elamite troops to suppress unrest in Canaanite cities.   Elamites reach the gateway to the Sinai peninsula and its Spaceport.

     2048  Shulgi dies.  Marduk moves to the land of the Hittites.  Abraham ordered to southern Canaan with an elite corps of cavalrymen.

      2047  Amar-Sin (the biblical Amraphel) becomes king of Ur.   Abraham goes to Egypt, stays five years, then returns with more troops.

      2041 Guided by Inanna,  Amar-Sin forms a coalition of Kings of the East, launches military expedition to Canaan and the Sinai.   Its leader is the Elamite Khedorla'omer.   Abraham blocks the advance at the gateway to the Spaceport.

      2038  Shu-Sin replaces Amar-Sin on the throne of Ur as the empire disintegrates.

      2029  Ibi-Sin replaces Shu-Sin.  The western provinces tilt increasingly to Marduk.

      2024 Leading his followers, Marduk marches on Sumer, enthrones himself in Babylon.  Fighting spreads to central Mesopotamia.  Nippur's Holy of Holies is defiled.  Enlil demands punishment for Marduk and Nabu;  Enki opposes, but his son Nergal sides with Enlil.

      As Nabu marshals his Canaanite followers to capture the Spaceport, the Great Anunnaki approve the use of nuclear weapons.   Nergel and Ninurta destroy the Spaceport and the errant Canaanite cities.

     2023 The winds carry the radioactive cloud to Sumer.  People die a terrible death, animals perish, the water is poisoned, the soil becomes barren.  Sumer and its great civilization lie prostrate."  

    

     "Its legacy passes to Abraham's seed as he begets -- at age 100 -- a legitimate heir: Isaac."

Moses, Hero of the Torah

     In his first major book The 12th Planet, Zecharia Sitchin mentions "Moses" only on page 26. "When Moses built for the Lord God a 'residence' in the desert, he did so according to very detailed instructions provided by the Lord. --- Twelve hundred years before Moses, Gudea made the same claim."

     In his third major book The Wars of Gods and Men, Sitchin speculates on pages 288 and 289 that "Moses" was the adopted son of Hatshepsut, the eldest daughter of Thothmes I by his official spouse.  When Hatshepsut could not produce an heir after marrying her brother Thothmes II, and her brother died, she continued to call Moses her son. Thothmes III, mothered by a harem girl, was Egypt's greatest warrior king, and was wary of people in the area where Moses' kinfolk lived, and Moses fled his death decree, but returned to free the now-enslaved Israelites during the reign of Aminophis II,   Sitchin dates the Exodus at 1433 BC, exactly when Moses was eighty years old (Exodus 7:7). 

      Virtually all scholars disagree.   Although the margin of the KJV dates the Exodus (with a question mark) at 1491 BC, others say it was 1446 BC and the "late date" scholars say 1250 BC.  The vary latest scholars doubt that there was an Exodus at all.

     All sorts of explanations have been advanced for the miracles in Egypt that the Torah asserts happened when Moses demanded that Pharoh allow the Israelites to sacrifice in the wilderness, an excuse that Phraoh correctly saw as an excuse for his slaves to escape.   Most believe these were natural events exaggerated by biblical writers who wrote 700 years or more after Sitchin's date of 1433 BC.

      And most modern scholars are quite certain that this type of crossing of the Red Sea by the Children of Israel has occurred only in old Hollywood movies.

Elijah, the Fiery Prophet

      Once one leaves the magical happenings of the Torah and progresses to the more conventional happenings of 1 and 2 Samuel, 1 and 2 Kings, and 1 and 2 Chronicles,  Judah is able to accept the God of Saul and David, which is YHWH - Jehovah, but  the northern 10 tribes of Israel struggle on still worshipping the Elohim, the original gods of Canaan, whenever pressure is not brought on them to conform.    King Ahab and queen Jezebel are made the villains of the story of the prophet Elijah, who by prayer brings down fire from heaven (reminiscent of what happened at Sodom) on a sacrificial ox soaked with 12 barrels of water.  The people agree to (temporarily) serve YHWH - Jehovah.

       Later Elijah turns over his Schools of the Prophets to Elisha, a farmer who is chosen by Elijah as his successor.  Elisha gets to watch as Elijah is taken to heaven in a Chariot of Fire, reminiscent of those thousands of years before Moses, in the time of Ibruum, when such happenings were relatively commonplace.  

       The authors of 1 and 2 kings could not visualize mechanical craft that could fly, however, so they describe Elijah's exit vehicle as follows: 2 Kings 2:11 "And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven."   The date 896 BC appears in the margin of my Bible by 2 Kings 2.  That's about 450 years after Moses and the Exodus (early date) or 250 years after Moses and the Exodus (late date).  And about 900 years before the Advent of Jesus Christ and the New Testament. 

        It is my goal in this series of pages not to prove the Bible

      "wrong" but to fill in some details that the Bible's authors

        left out because they judged them unsuitable for those

        they saw as their target

        congregation or audience  --

        and to re-interpret some symbolism and parables for

        a more modern and better educated group of readers.
