What Of This Ralph Ellis?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Ask Jesus : One Thread

I've read some of Ralph Ellis' essays. Ralph seems to believe that Jesus was only a man who was next in line to be a Pharaoh.

Here is a website with some links to his intersting views.

What do you all think about his views?

Mt. Sanai was a pyramid?

Huh? ....that even the Scriptures describe it as it being like a pyramid.

Make that "Mt. Sinai".

As a kid, I would get bored late at night. We only had access to two t.v. channels. Once twelve midnight would arrive, the t.v. would go blank. As a result, I discovered a cheap divertimento using a lamp and my hands--shadow puppets. I could shape my hands into obscure forms that would give the illusion of creating images of common objects on the wall as shadow puppets. I guess that Ralph Ellis has become a master of "shadow puppetry", but instead of using lamps and hands, he has utilized history and conjecture for his "images". Is what he asserts just a bizzare contruction of precisely cut jigsaw puzzles made to fit into an illusion of reality or has history conveniently hidden away facts into mysterious and secret hiding places away from common man?

Shadow puppets are interesting and entertaining. As any divertimento should be, it takes us into a momentary world of make-believe. Ellis has, at least, accomplished a similar task with me. I will begin to get nervous if what he is writing is actually true.

I believe , Rod, that Mount Sinai is in Saudi Arabia. I don't have my book of maps with me to tell you the place I suspect it is. It is across from the Gulf of Akaba.

Mount Sinai now.

Israelites JourneyThrough the Wilderness

Midian is south of Edom, Rod, not in the Sinai peninsula. Midian in Saudi Arabia.

(This site offers many maps from the Bible http://www.keyway.ca/htm2002/keyway07.htm ) Bible Sites

Remember that Moses lived with his father -in- Law,a priest: Jethro . Medina (Al-Madinah), where Muhammad went in his exile was known as Yatrib (Jethro).

The Egyptians used to mine the Sinai peninsula. It was still under their control. So Moses must have to be in Saudi Arabia when he escaped from the Egyptians with the Israelites.

People I believe are worshipping at the wrong mountain!!! Possible places: Jabal Mazhafah, *Jabal al Lawz, Jabal az Zuhd, Jabal ash Shati, and *Jabal Shar. See map Mountains of Saudi Arabia by Gulf of Aqaba.

The Christian Yahwist PS: it is an interactive map, Rod. So click on it. Make sure you click by the Gulf of Aqaba (next to Sinai).

If you come across his book--"Jesus Last of the Pharaohs"--you might want to read it. The book tries to use historical facts as the means to conjure up a whole new understanding for Jesus and His "political" mission. It will turn everything upside down. I would even say that Ellis flies his commercial jets upside down just for the fun of it. The guy is a MENSA member and a pretty good psuedo-historian, in my opinion.

Ancient Aircrafts my foot.

They are really reaching high in thinking that this delta winged object is an aircraft.

People! that finely crafted brass(?) airplane looking thing is nothing more than a boat anchor belonging to some lucky fisherman.
