The information above is from Zechariah Sitchin's research in the cuneiform records....... We can obtain the exact date of this battle and confirm that Abraham lived about 2000 BC. ..Adding the 400 years of the prophecy of Genesis 15 brings us to an Exodus date of 1500-1600 BC |
|
The 400 years of Genesis 15:13 need not begin until Joseph invited his father Jacob to Egypt, but that only gains us 2 generations more, the life-time of Isaac and Jacob, perhaps 150 years. Exodus occurs about 1400 BC. |
 |
However, if the Muslim lawyer Ahmed Osmon's identification of Joseph and Moses is correct, then the Exodus occurred about 1330 BC, and Moses was the great-grandson of Jacob! |
|
The Jews now give an even later date for the Exodus, to distance Moses from his real father (an Egyptian Pharaoh), assuming an Exodus about 1200-1250 BC! |
Simple arithmetic shows there is a gap of 2000-1330=670 years between Abraham and Exodus if we use Akhenaton as Moses, and 2000-1250=750 years if we use the mythical Moses supposed to live in the reign of Ramses II (of which there are no records). 6 people's lifetimes are involved, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Tihe, Akhenaton (Moses). However, only one, Abraham, had a child at 100 years old! 40 years is a much more likely generation for the others, and 5x40=200 years, not 670! If we use the usual generation time of 20 years, then 5x20=100 years! The most likely presumption to make about Isaac, since he is the only one we have no way of checking on, and is born under the most unlikely circumstances, is that he represents a number of unknown generations, and a rather dubious conection to the Sumerian General IB.RU.UM (Abraham). Had not the Hebrew editors of the Bible already alerted us to their inclination to change things to fit a predetermined pattern by leaving out the most important details of Abraham's identity, and also made Moses's connection to Tihe and Yuya (the real Joseph) very difficult to discover, we might be inclined to view Isaac as a real person. Let's be kind, and say there was a person named Isaac among a number of people who might have had some distant relationship to General IB.RU.UM. But that it is unlikely that God would expect the father of this person to "offer him up" as a blood sacrifice! |
Before the kindly God of Genesis created Adam and Eve as His special children, and even afterwards in many pagan lands, other gods were worshipped who did indeed expect human beings to offer their sons to these pagan gods! Hebrew editors of the Bible wanted to be at least a bit historical in this matter, but have ommitted in the case of Isaac, that first-born sons were the prefered sacrifice to these blood- thirsty gods! Ishmael not Isaac was firstborn! |

|
If we wish to be consistent with this blood-thirsty Pagan practice of pre-history, and assume that any of the Abraham story other than Genesis 14 and the story of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah is historical, then Abraham would be required to offer up Ishmael his first-born, not Isaac. |
| The Hebrew copyists of scripture were often priests, who depended on offerings and sacrifices of animals for their wealth and livelihood. They again appealed to this "First-born Sacrifice" tradition for a major money-making scheme in other "Mosaic" Laws. |

Numbers 3:13 "Because all the firstborn are mine; for on the day that I smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I hallowed unto me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast: mine shall they be: I am the Lord." Numbers 3:50 "Of the firstborn of the children of Israel took he the money; a thousand three hundred and threescore and five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary: 51 And Moses gave the money of them that were redeemed unto Aaron and to his sons, according to the word of the Lord, as the Lord commanded Moses." |
