I think one of the big mistakes some make, is assuming it was only the Hebrews/Israelites that worshipped YHWH. The Bible itself tells us, other peoples did too, we have gentiles long before Moses who did in Genesis all over the place. One, Melchizedek, was even called a king and priest of YHWH, yet had nothing to do with the Hebrews.

According to the Bible, Edom is the land of Esau, Jacob's brother. Being that according to this identification the Edomites are a people related to the Israelites, is it possible that among the Edomites there were those who worshipped YHVH, even before the time of the Exodus?

I've never been able to identify a mountain as Seir. Just its general location in Edom, maybe close to the King's Highway. Laban means white and is mentioned in DT 1:1. One possibility is Al-Lajjun, a Jordanian region of phosphorite-bituminous chalk 26 miles east of the Dead Sea. Or another is Abu Al-Luson which is a town 17 miles south-west of Ma'an.

This is interesting on another level. It shows that an army can be sustained when traveling on a lower route across Sinai. If we knew how the Egyptians got to Edom. If they crossed from Suez to Ezion-Geber. Or, from Tell el-Maskhuta to Beer-sheba then from there across the Negeb and Zin to Edom. The logistic might of been of interest to say Moses. One additional thought. Kadesh-Barnea was most likely at Petra. This was a holy site for a number of various worshipers. One could be Yahweh.

We are only told that the opposition is a bunch of atheistic short-sighted biggots, Rohl is the top tier, Douglas and others are also okay but Ramses ones are totally wrong and blind). I would really like if you could make a video about Philistines. Why are they and their cities mentioned during Abraham and other patriarchs? Why do they have semitic names? When exactly did the real Philistines come to that region in Bible history and are there any proofs of that in the Bible (like a sudden change of names from semitic to Philistine names). Why is the word Philistine almost always translated as a foreign in Septuagint? How to understand the table of nations concerning Philistines? Its such an interesting and huge topic, and it relates to the early vs late exodus debate and could be made into a small series of videos. But anyway thank you for your content again, God bless you 😃

Thomas Romer is an exegete, philologist and biblical scholar who has written several books to demonstrate that Yahweh is only an invented God, that Moses and a copy of Sargon, etc….thank you in advance for your answer (sorry for my bad english i am french)
@ancientegyptandthebible
Жыл бұрын
I am aware of Römer's views, and needless to say I think they are flawed. Moses is not a copy of Sargon. The only similarities are in the birth narratives and even then there are too many differences to make that assertion of copying credible. Moreover, there are also difficulties with the idea that the Shasu invented Yahweh let alone originated with the Shasu, so to double-down on that hypothesis is fraught with speculation. Now, that doesn't negate the hypothesis, but it does cast serious doubts about the evidentiary power of it. Nevertheless, some have suggested that the Kenite hypothesis is a potential origin of Yahweh, which would be reasonable given the Biblical narrative. But even if you could trace the origins of Yahweh to a specific locale, that would not necessarily mean that Yahweh is an invented God. That is an intellectual leap that goes too far in my opinion.

So.. "shasu" would be the Egyptian term similar to a nomadic tribe. There can be other tribes (shasu) without making it impossible for the "shasu of YHW" to be the Israelites. Also, that timing fits rather perfectly. Solomon's temple was built around the year 960 BCE. And 1 kings 6:1 dates that as "480 years after the Israelites came out of Egypt." Putting the start of the Exodus around 1440 BCE, during the reign of Thutmose III. Would Thutmose II know about the nomads of YHW? Of course. They were his servants. They hadn't left yet. Even though they were only actually "nomadic" (physically wandering) for 40 years (putting entry to Israel at AROUND 1400 BCE)... They had picked a spot they liked, but they would still be considered more of a "tribe" (shasu) than a "legitimate nation" by Egyptian standards as they wouldn't have a king for a few centuries. And yes, if you read Judges, they had quite a few times where they were defeated and subdued. No, they weren't to live intermixed with Edomites, no.. but from Egypt's perspective, all those guys were around the same area, off to the east. Just like if you ask any American today where Guatemala and Honduras are... Yeah, they're both down south (even when people understand that they are distinct countries). ... Sounds not all Shasu we're Israelites, of course not. But the "Shasu of YHW" probably were. Especially considering the Defixio recently announced to have been found at an alter on Mt. Ebal... An alter with a ramp, and the burnt bones of exclusively kosher animals, with a curse in the name of YHW in Paleo Hebrew, dating to approximately the same time as that inscription (around 1400 BCE). Seemingly in accordance with the command Israelites were given to set up an alter and pronounce curses on that very mountain. Seems like an increased amount of supporting evidence.

What do you do with the not-so-perfect fact that the places mentioned in the Book of Exodus could not have been built until the reign of Seti I and Ramesses II?

The document that mentions these Shasu are encountered while Thutmosis II is on campaign in Canaan. Isn’t it a problem if you claim the Israelites were living both inside and outside of Egypt at the same time prior to the exodus? > Even though they were only actually "nomadic" (physically wandering) for 40 years (putting entry to Israel at AROUND 1400 BCE)... They had picked a spot they liked, but they would still be considered more of a "tribe" (shasu) than a "legitimate nation" by Egyptian standards as they wouldn't have a king for a few centuries. The problem is that Shasu of Yahw are part of a conquest narrative of the area around Mt. Seir. These references to Shasu of Yahw occur no earlier than 1389 BC. Wouldn’t this be a problem for your “perfect fit”? 51 years after the exodus, shouldn’t the Israelites have already entered the Promised Land and conquered Jericho, Ai, and Hazor? But is not also a problem that Hazor was not destroyed until around 1220 BC?

Don’t you think it is a problem that conquest toponym lists were recorded in sequential order? You did realize that the Egyptians did not randomly gather place names into lists? These lists are arranged in the sequential order that these conquests took place. This is why all the tribes of the Shasu are mentioned next to each other. They are all living around Mt. Seir in Edom. > ... Sounds not all Shasu we're Israelites, of course not. But the "Shasu of YHW" probably were. Why were the “Shasu of Yahw” probably Israelites? Where’s the evidence for this?

The amulet find is highly contested and was announced by a group known to alter the data to arrive at 1446 BC exodus dates. None of the raw data for that find has been released.

@Ancient Egypt and the Bible 1- Regarding the translation of shasu: I would point to the context of there being "shasu of" different areas and peoples as evidence of this applying to different groups. But, we can simply disagree there. 2- k, which places could not have existed until then, and why? For example, if you're referring to something like "the city of Ramses" because it couldn't have been ned Ramses until after the Pharaoh by that name ruled... I would point out that the title of your channel is "Ancient Egypt." Should we say "Egypt could not have existed at that time, because it would have been referred to as Kemet or Misr or Mizraim, depending on who was speaking and when? And the concept of "Egypt" did not exist for many centuries? I would acknowledge that Joseph would never have known a city called "Ramses." It was Avaris at the time. And just like we translate hieroglyphics written about "Misr" as "Egypt," the book of Exodus may use later names for cities. 3- Not really... The last kings of those lands were kings of the Canaanites and Edomites and Moabites and Midianite, etc. Calling those lands by those names is normal. As of the 14th-12th centuries, Israel still had no king, and Egypt wasn't fond of the people, hence referring to them as simply a shasu that murdered the real kings of those lands, rather than an actual kingdom in it's own right. As another example, some people today absolutely refuse to refer to "Palestine" as having ever actually existed. Or to "Palestinians" as a real group of people. Political bias and revisionism still happens today. Always has. 4- Yes, IF the Exodus started somewhere around 1440 (I wouldn't argue +/- a decade or so), then they would have finished their conquest of that area, and taken Jerusalem by 1400. They weren't confined to a single city. I won't claim to know the exact borders at exact points in history, but Mt. Seir is quite close. If a pharoh went along Israel's southern border, and conquered some other tribes, including sacking some Israelite city in the vicinity of the mountain, it's not surprising for some Israelite city to be around there. Amenhotep I and II (and Thutmose IV) all brag about victories over the "tribe of YHW", the Aperu (which could be Hebrews), and the nation of Israel (Merneptah Stele)... Skepticism is fine, of course, if there is some specific other group that goes by those names, sure, point it out. It's possible for other groups to have similar names! But, if there's no evidence to suggest that beyond that "this might not be who it seems to be" simply because there is no other evidence (as long as we deny each piece of evidence on the basis of there being no other pieces, because we've denied them as well)... Then that's not skepticism anymore. For example, you're citing precise years like "1389 BC"... What makes you so confident in the accuracy of those specific dates beyond the record kept by those people? If we consider the records kept by Egypt to be historical... And the records kept by Assyria and Babylon and Persia, and every other country to be historical... Why do we presume the (more specific) records kept by the Hebrews to be completely mythical, no matter how many archeological finds keep turning up that keep coinciding with those records.

@@morielrorschach8090 I'm posting on this video again because many videos use the Soleb and Amara-West Temple inscriptions as proof of the Israelites were n Canaan during the reign of Amenhotep III 1389-1351 BC. One of the problems is that Garstang found two Amenhotep III scarabs in tombs at Jericho. Putting the date of the end of Jericho at least 17 years after the 1406 BC early date of conquest. There is no +/- 10 years allowed with the early date exodus. It has to be 1446 BC or not. The second bird in the Soleb 'ywh' inscription is damaged and may be a falcon. The reason the 'yhw' inscription doesn't indicate it is a god may be because there were no idols. Egyptians may not recognize a god without idols.

Likewise, there's also about a +/- 20 year range for the ascension years of each pharoh. If you're interested in some dry reading, you can search for a paper called "Bayesian modelling of an absolute chronology for Egypt’s 18th Dynasty by astrophysical and radiocarbon methods" ... which lays out some evidence that would suggest Amenhotep III could have reigned earlier than wikipedia suggests... potentially early enough for his scarab to appear in Jericho. ... at least less of a problem for the 15th century exodus than the suggestion of a 13th century exodus (and Jericho seeming to have fallen a couple centuries earlier).

@@morielrorschach8090 With the discovery of the Amarna letters there is more synchronism dating than when Garstang had his discovery. Interestingly he gave the start date of Amenhotep III as 1410. to work around the problem. I expect to see more fabrication of the temple date when others realize the implication of a later Amenhotep III. The scarab date problem is fatal to the early date exodus. It presents no problem at all for the late date. The 'yhw' in Seir presents some problems for both dates. For the early dates there is a question of why were some Israelites left behind and settled at Kadesh Barnea? (Kadesh Barnea is not within the Promised Land otherwise Moses couldn't go there.) And why weren't the tribes in Edom unified into one single group in the record if they unified to oppose Moses? How did the Egyptians get to Edom? By land they would have to pass through and conquer the towns in the Negev and Zin that Joshua took. No Bible record of that exists.

"Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God" (Genesis 14) Melchizedek was not an Israelite, nor would that term have had any significance at that period since there were no Israelites yet. But, Melchizedek worshipped God. "I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty (El) , but by my name the LORD (YHWH) was I not known to them" (Exodus 6) The great insight revealed to Moses at Mt. Horeb was that of the existential reality which is God (יהוה). That is, God is existence in and of Himself and not simply the greatest among objects which exist. God is existence. God is the singularly self-evident axiom from which all else is derived: ipsum esse subsistens. "And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM (יהוה) : and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM (יהוה) hath sent me unto you... this is my name forever" (Exodus 3) "and you shall call His name JESUS (יהוה saves) for it is He who will save His people from their sins" (Matthew 1) "I, even I, Am the LORD (יהוה) and apart from Me there is no Savior" (Isaiah 43)

“When Elyon (The Most High) gave the nations an inheritance, when he divided humankind, he set the bounds of the peoples according to the number of Bull El’s children, and Yahweh’s portion was his people, Jacob, the lot of his inheritance.” How did the Israelites depict YHVH in the Bible when given the chance? A Golden Bull. Were they agricultural or were they herdsmen? Semitic, Proto-Canaanites, their rulers, the Hyksos, are all WELL before the Israelites, but it doesn’t mean they didn’t have those pre-existing influences to draw from for their stories. Moses’ origins are lifted from King Sargon of Akkad, but giving him a position of temporary rule, lines up with what the Hyksos were. Temporary rulers in a foreign land. El, Ba’al, and Asherah were amongst their pantheon of gods, El being the most high. Amenhotep the II did imprison some Semitic peoples, and Amenhotep the IV was the first ruler to mandate Monotheism. The Israelites likely were NOT the Shasu, or vice versa, however as nomadic tribes traveling thru their lands, this Yahu Storm/War God may have been adopted into their pantheon. Soon, the Cult of Yahweh gets strong enough to start rewriting history. He who controls the narrative and all that… Soon, the puzzle pieces start coming together. Why did the Deuteronomic Class make a subtle distinction between Yahweh and El(ohim), and call Yahweh the Bull El? Why did the Torah depict Yahweh AS a Bull God? Lastly, hundreds of years before Isaiah, the Canaanites have the myth of Ba’al, the Son/Sun of God (El), outshining the interloper Attar (Venus), as It tried as the “Morning Star” to reach the Heavenly Zenith. Why do the Israelites keep “forgetting” their God, and have to pull down Asherah poles (some temple remains still have a place for “Yahweh’s Consort, Asherah”, so he stole El’s peoples and his woman, and then killed and buried her under the front porch boards). Yahweh = Yahu, and it’s pronounced Yahoo, the sound of the wind blowing. Seems hilariously fitting.

I think it's also possible that Shasu of yhw are "hebrews", and the conquest of Canaan was done by others (if that happened). Later there was an alliance of tribes - one of them was the shasu and they bought their god, others brought their conquest stories in the mix. So maybe the origin story of the israelites is the combined version of different tribes' different events, heroes etc.

You are mistaken. There is a time problem because there is a geography problem. The Shasu of Yahu were located in Edom.

And because these designations are given in geographic order and the "Shasu of Yahu" is very close to the "Shasu of (Mount) Seir", the "Shasu of Yahu" must be in Edom.

@@ancientegyptandthebible No need to get testy. I am trying to determine, as a layman, what is definitive here, and what is tentative. I'm not looking to plant my metaphorical flag into what could be a life raft. I appreciate you sharing your take on these questions to deflate the life raft if that is what it is. It seems to me that your logic in the video suffers somewhat by *equivocation*. At the outset you use the term "shasu" as if it represents a distinct ethnic or tribal group, which, if I understand it properly, it simply refers to nomads. Of course, there will be references to nomads who are *not* Israelites. The same equivocation pops up again in reference to the depictions of "shasu" and other Levantines. This is not helpful to viewers, such as myself, who are new to this subject and trying to get their moorings, or others who do not have very keen critical analytical skills. You seem to have more scholarly caution in the video, but more dogmatic in your responses. I looked at a map of the time and Edom seems to have shared an extensive border with Canaan. So it appears the *same* general geographical region is involved. Maybe we're dealing with a "distinction without a difference" on this point? This common border seems to quite extensively muddy the waters. The question isn't where was Canaan and where was Edom, but were the incursions of Amenhotep III strictly limited to inside the borders of Edom, with no deviation? I am dubious that this point can be proven. Seir seems pretty definite. But what about the other references? Are they defintively place names in Edom? This is not my bailiwick, so I'm probing the plausibility of your proposition. If the other references are definitively within Edom, and outside of Canaan, then this would add plausibility to your argument, but still fall short of a canonical demonstration. I have read that the term, "Yahu" appears here for the very first time in the extant historical record. If this is correct, and it is a *place* name, where was "Yahu" *before* this time and where did it go *afterwards* ? It seems a little forced to contend that it shows up only here in this one reference and that it is a place name. Granted, absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, but an argument from silence is not a definitive demonstration. The biblical narrative has it that the name of God, Yah(hu) Yah(weh) originates slightly before this time as revealed to Moses. In any event, this is the name of the Hebrew god. It makes sense that the term should pop up right at this historical juncture if it is a reference to the god of the Hebrews and the people of the god Yahu.

They purposely damaged the inscription. He added Seir to make them edomites, thus white. The Israelites are clearly described both implicitly and explicitly. No pale whites in Egypt were Hebrew. The inscription is actually in Nubia, modern day Sudan. The ppl made up the nihlotic people's of Africa, of which Abram was a chieftain. He later changed his name to Abraham, a Semitic name. They play games with semantics rather than stated what's obvious. The Egyptians described themselves, the Africans of the day and the white man. All on the Rosetta stone. When Champollian took it off a nubian soldier. He was embarrassed at their depictions of whites. They call them the Tamahu. A word which means stranger. Whites were never considered Shasu or Hebrew or Israelite. They forced their way into the narrative.

Your history is as bad as your geography and Middle Egyptian. Amenhotep III came to the throne no earlier than 1390 BC. If the early conquest date is correct, then Amenhotep III wrote that over 20 years after the Israelites crossed the Arnon. Early daters need to stop using the high chronology and the terrible apologetics associated with the early date--it really makes them look ahistorial, unbiblical, and ridiculous.
