A Lost Book doesn't Make Up for Lost Time
Format: Paperback
I bought the hard back copy of this book years ago & what an interesting read with great time lines & beautiful color photos. Someone borrowed the book & I forgot who I loaned it to. After years of trying to remember where it went, I at last bought it again as a paper back through Amazon.com. It's a used book with no marks & only a slight indentation on a few pages on the side. Now that I am looking into it & remembering it once again, I am over loaded with too many historical theories. Maybe it's my fault for being a book reader rather than an Egyptologist.
I am going to write down some simple time frame theories & you will see what this book is about:
General View: The Hebrews came into Egypt through reuniting Joseph & his brothers. They experienced the Amarna period of primitive Monotheism. Akhenaton was over thrown & polytheism was reinstated as the Hebrews were enslaved. Moses came during Rameses II & the Exodus was during the last years of Rameses II or the Pharaoh Marneptah.
Amarna period of Akhenaton 1352-1337/1334 BC
Rameses II 1279-1213 BC
Exodus last years of Rameses II or Marneptah.
Problems: Biblical History is off by 180 years if counted back from the creation of Solomon's temple. Rameses II was a great conquer, & both he & his son Marneptah never wrote of 10 plagues or an Exodus. Both died as old men & their mummys are still with us.
David Rohl's Theory: revised Egyptian history by shortening the 3rd Intermediate Period by almost 300 years.
Tutimaios known as Dudimose is the Pharaoh of the Exodus
Exodus 1447 BC
Amarna period of Akhenaton = time of King David approx. 1000 BC. Proof: letters written between an Egyptian Pharaoh & King of Israel during that period.
Rameses II = Shishak of 921 BC sack of Jerusalem. Proof: Rameses II used a monogram that comes close to Shishak.
Problems: goes against establish Egyptian time frames or "If the Bible doesn't fit the Egyptian time frames then make the Egyptian time frames fit the Bible". Akhenaton is no longer the 1st political monotheist & seems out of place not influencing Moses & writing letters to King David.
From Another Book I Read - "Akhenaton & Moses" by Ahmed Osman
Ahmed Osman's Theory: Akhenaton is the same person as Moses
Amarna period of Akhenaton 1352-1337/1334 BC
Exodus after the overthrow of Akhenaton by Rameses I
Problems: Moses doesn't die overlooking the Promise land of Canaan as stated in Deuteronomy 34 but dies without a known grave as did Akhenaton. Moses monotheism doesn't deal with a solar disc as a symbol of the one God or a replacement of a lesser Egyptian God, but is from an inherited convent.
Other Dates of the Exodus:
Josephus 1552 BC
Sedar Olam Rabbah 1440 BC
Book of Jubilees 2410 BC
Early Church Fathers 1570 to 1320 BC
I need to research Immanuel Velikovsky ideas on this subject matter. I just bought the book & will review it.

Correcting the Biblical Chronology
Format: Hardcover
When I first begin my study of the Bible, I had purchased another book on archaeology and the first thing I realized is that nothing fit. The time of Solomon was impoverishment in Israel. When you read the Bible Solomon was the richest king ever. David Rohl's book Pharaohs and Kings changed all that. He persuasively shows where the chronology is wrong and when corrected things fall into place. What is commonly called the old testament comes to life. It is the greatest book on Biblical Archaeology ever written. Thank you David !!!

Long expected and now explained mystery of Israels sojourne in Egypt
Format: Hardcover
Beautiful, detailed and well explained text book. Very hard for the history of the Bible to be accepted by so many scholars. However,
archeology and history just keeps proving it totally reliable over and over again. If you want to see the pieces of the puzzle of ancient mid-east and Bible history fall in place - get this incredible book. The highly credentialed and acclaimed archeologist, David Rohl has
really done an outstanding job in this presentation. Read and learn!

An addictive read
Format: Paperback
A friend loaned me his copy and I couldn't put it down. Very well written and extremely informative.
Why conventional Egyptology doesen't attempt to adhere to the obvious evidences I will never understand.
After returning my friends copy to him I not only bought one for myself but have purchased others for friends and family. This book is especially helpful for one who is interested in understanding which Old Testament persons are being referenced in various accounts.Moses did not deal with Raamses the Great
