Spoken like a true
Jew. Topix of 2012 Doug Mason flashback. It’s apparent that your conclusions
are predicated to justify the Palestrina war of 1947/8. I’m assuming you can
also correlate the six day war of 1967/8 to indicate some other assertion over
the timeline of creation.
1947 is the year the Jews are restored to their
homeland to complete the final
Covenant week of 49 years from 1947-1996. This is a
jubilee period of 49
Years following the "great tribulation"
which was the HOLOCAUST. That being
The case we can easily date the precise year of the
Exodus, since the Exodus
Occurs 49 years after the 70 jubilee weeks begin. So
let's do the math:
1947 + 49 = 1996
70 jubilees is a period of 3430 years.
70 x 49 = 3430 years
3430 - 1996 = 1434 +1 (no Roman zero year) = 1435 BCE
1435 BCE
- 49 = 1386 BCE.
Biblical time line is an essential part of
the starting point for creation. To suggest that people are incorrect is an ambiguous
assertion. The WTS holds its theory, creation date of 4026 BC. Under their
understanding of decades of research brings the Exodus around 1513 BC. A more
realistic view would see how secular time lines approximate biblical reckoning.
By correctly looking at secular history, the closet Pharaoh would be either
Thutmose I or II. The assertion of Amenhotep III would then fall under
Amenhotep I since Amenhotep III was a more passive Pharaoh as described by Rogers Fund,
1956
Amenhotep III, ninth king of Dynasty
18, was heir to the expansionist policies of his predecessors and ruled over an
empire at the height of its political, economic, and cultural power. It was
also an empire at peace, relying on diplomatic exchanges to ensure the
stability and revenues of Egypt. During his long reign, Amenhotep III
transformed the religious landscape at Thebes, building a great temple to
Amun-Re at Luxor and making major additions to the Temple of Karnak. On the
west bank at Thebes, he built an enormous palace complex with an artificial
lake at Malqata, where he celebrated three sed or jubilee festivals. His
mortuary temple was one of the largest ever built, but little remains today
except the famous Colossi of Memnon, actually a pair of colossal statues of
Amenhotep III that stood before its pylon.
Thutmose I (sometimes read as Thothmes, Thutmosis
or Tuthmosis I, meaning Thoth-Born) was the third Pharaoh of the 18th dynasty of Egypt. He was given the throne after the
death of the previous king Amenhotep I. During his reign, he campaigned deep into
the Levant and Nubia, pushing the borders of Egypt further than ever before. He
also built many temples in Egypt and built a tomb for himself in the Valley of the Kings; he is the first king
confirmed to have done this (though Amenhotep I may have preceded him). He was
succeeded by his son Thutmose II, who in turn was succeeded by Thutmose II's
sister, Hatshepsut.
His reign is generally dated from 1506 to 1493 BC,
but a minority of scholars, who think that astrological observations used to
calculate the timeline of ancient Egyptian records and thus the reign of
Thutmose I, were taken from the city of Memphis rather than from Thebes, would date his reign from 1526 BC to
1513 BC.

Under that assertion, since Aaron was the
first born in that family yet harm didn’t come to him, then the understanding
would suggest an earlier ruler of Egypt such as Ahmose
I for Aaron and Amenhotep I for Moses. Now science has proven that Amenhotep I
and Thutmose I were not related bringing in harmony the first born killed by
the 10 plague of God in the biblical account.
• - The pharaoh of the Exodus begun his reign
shortly before 1513 B.C.E.
• - Connected to two Egyptians "Jannes and
Jambres" (Ieneni and Puimre?)
• - The pharaoh of the Exodus' contemporaries
mummies might show signs of plague. (See: Thutmose II)
• - The pharaoh is predeceased by his firstborn.
(Amenmose)
• - The pharaoh of the Exodus dies at during the
spring of 1513 B.C.E.
• - Possibly no mummy left. (Dr. Hawass' statement
in 2007)
• - Possibly named Thutmoses, based on Josephus'
writings.
Independent study of
scripture and science would help to understand the difficulties time lines can
be to a novice. However to be sure, in general, all historians do agree on the
18 Dynasty to be the most probable.
Another problem with
timeline is the legitimacy both Arabs and Jews fight over. Both sides obscure
ancient history to show just cause to their claim of being the rightful owners
of disputed lands. Such fallacies can be seen through archeological expertise
driven by both sides. Hiding or destroying evidence that would be in support or
against historical facts make it much more difficult to arrive to a definitive
conclusion to those of us that truly seek only the facts thus making modern
historians and archeologist more suspicious as to their intent of seeking fame
verses facts. A handicap that past historians and archeologist didn’t endure.
