A Body of Evidence

Amenhotep

Amenhotep, you 
Fly with your chariots, yon
That Nuweiba beach.
Yet, the walls of water crash
Down upon you, and the Jews,
They flee to Sinai. 

The Wandering Israelites

Oh, you wandering 
Apiru, in the desert 
So long: Estsablish 
Yourselves! And break the Hittite 
Empire You "Sea People!"

Historicity of Genesis; Flood, Nimrod and Battle of Siddom

Mid-24th Century Anomaly, 
It collapses all civilizations;
Almost like a global flood? Then
The Earth divides during the life of Peleg, and then
Sargon that Nimrod, built His empire, 
And three hundred years later, would,
Ride, Abraham! and pursue those Elamite foes.
Make haste to avenge Ur, to impose that Amorite King
Melchizedek, king of Salem, to instill Babylonian rule.

The Gospels as Witness

Mathew, if first written in Aramaic,
Papias says John Son of Thunder
Said Matthew was written by Matthew in Hebrew,
Does this not prove Matthew was written by
Matthew? Papias XX says John the Elder is
John Son of Thunder, and that John dictated his Gospel to Papias.
Luke is also considered a premier Historian.
Evidence that Demands a Verdict, 86.
And Mark is written by memory,
On the testimony of Peter.
And would Q not most likely be the man Jesus Himself?

Pi Ramses

Pi Ramses,
You are named
Right when the
Prophet, good
Moses, lived.
You are proof
Exodus
Was written
Nigh the year
One thousand
Three hundred
Before Christ.
Right before
Moses would
See the land
That our God
Promised him.
Twenty years
Is within
A margin
Of error.

King Tut

Anubis sits atop a vessel
In the pattern of the Ark of the Covenant.
How the LORD God freed Israel
From idolatry, and gave them a pure law.
For, instead of Anubis,
It is the Law of God
Between the Cherubim.
The Curtains of the Tabernacle
Cry out that Exodus was real.
So does the Ark of the Covenant.
So does all evidence prove the LORD Jehovah Jireh.

How also the Covenants between Egypt and the Hittites
Prove Moses, for a learned man of Egyptian Royalty
Wrote the Torah. Only one of such education could.


Evidence in a Timeline

A Biblical Timeline of Evidence Corroborating Scripture:
24th Century BC – Flood myths appear on every continent and in every ancient civilization, including the Americas, which would be impossible, had not the Flood actually happened. There is also the 24th century Anomaly, which wipes out all civilizations on Earth, and leaves evidence in Ireland with tree rings. The Genealogical Records in scripture also helped me find this event.
1950bc - The Lipit-Ishtar, which has a law on it, number 27, that Abraham followed with Hagar, that God told him to ignore. Abraham corresponds to this in the Genealogical record. 
1800bc - Wadi el-Hol, found in Egypt, shows the earliest alphabet resembling that of proto-hebrew.
1750bc - We see the influence of Abraham on the laws of Mesopotamia, in the Hammurabi's Code, where some of the Hebrew laws in the Torah are first found. Which is likely, also, the reason Sumerian Legends contain Biblical material, was an original source penned by Abraham.
1420bc - The Temple of Soleb has the name of Yahweh inscribed in Egyptian Hieroglyphs, and shows Bound Hebrew Slaves on the Pillars, making mention of the fact that the Israelites were wanderers in the land of Egypt before they were enslaved.
1330bc - The Cult of Aten begins, which corresponds with Moses in the Genealogies. The Cult of Aten was an unexpected conversion to Monotheism by the Pharaoh of Egypt, which likely occurred as a result of the miracles performed by Moses. Also, Moses' genealogical record lines up right with it.
18th Egyptian Dynasty – Egyptian Chariot spokes are found off the coast of Nuweiba beach, and many more like pieces remain under the Red Sea.
1250bc - Joshua's Altar. In Joshua's Altar there are Kosher animal ashes, along with the lead tablet described by the book of Joshua, and it is situated at the rear face of mount Ebal. It is even in the pattern of a Jewish Altar, with ramps instead of steps. Also found at the same dig site are mentions of King Hezekiah (Circa 790bc) and Jeremiah (Circa 600bc). The tablet has both El and Yah in it.
1050bc - A fragmented clay artifact is found in Khirbet Qeiyafa, containing Hebrew Mnemonic verses and the name of God (El), of interpretive transcriptions of the law. On the pot, it talks about being charitable to slaves, and judging them mercifully, and a rebuke against idolatry.
840bc - Tel Dan Stele records the death of King Jehoram, and reveals that he is from the HouseDavid---a Portmanteau of the Dynasty's Heraldry.
597bc - The Nebuchadnezzar Chronicles are a direct reference to the Jewish Captivity, of Babylon sacking Jerusalem. Ezekiel had already been taken captive, along with Israel, therefore, the  captivity had already begun. Ezekiel records the Sack of Jerusalem and how bad it will be. As well as Jeremiah the Prophet.
537bc - Edict of Cyrus, which records the restoration of the Jews back to Israel.
100bc – The Great Isaiah scroll was transcribed, and still has the prophecy of Isaiah 53, detailing how a man's soul must be offered as a sin offering. Predating Christ by at least 130 years.
31ad – Christ sweats blood, and dies of a heart attack. The Gospel record shows Christ sweating blood, a condition called hematohidrosis, which happens because of severe stress, and also a heart attack, when His side was punctured with the spear, water flowed from the wound. Which is from a pustule sack developed around the heart during Pre-Cardiac Arrest.
31ad – Under the Emperor Guangwu, of the Latter Han Dynasty, there is record of the Darkening of the Sun which happened for three hours during the Crucifixion. In the records, twice it is declared, “A man has died for the sins of all the people. Man from heaven died.”



The Bible's Reliability, As Supported by The Evidence 

So, to begin, the Bible is the only surviving document of any great length from before 1000bc. It was first written—and we know this—at about 1300bc. Which is when the Exodus took place, if you study the Genealogical records of the kings dating back from Persian restoration.

And that’s important because if the Bible were written at 1300bc—it was started then—it’s pretty much what the Bible claims. And the religion was formed by Moses, when they were out in the desert. And there’s actually several pieces of evidence that suggest this happened.

The first, is a temple in Soleb, which has the name of Yahweh inscribed on it, and also a depiction of bound slaves. That’s actually in an Egyptian ruin, and I’ve seen it on a video. Which, is important because on that pillar, it says the Jews were a wandering people. Which is also what the Bible says. And when the slavery was initiated, it doesn’t say that. Only that the Jews were indeed enslaved, and they worshiped Yahweh.

So, another piece of evidence was found off the coast of Nuweiba  beach. They found thousands of scattered Chariot spokes and wheels and other such things. And they recovered one, which dated exactly to the 18th Egyptian Dynasty. Which, was again, around 1300bc.

So, you’d think if this happened, there’d have to be some great revival in Egypt. The overwhelming evidence that God showed Himself to Pharaoh would have to have some impact on society. And it did. Akhenaten, a famous pharaoh, commissioned his state to be Monotheistic, and worship Aten. And, this is exactly dated at the Exodus. So, around 1340 is when Akhenaten lived. Forty years in the wilderness, there’s then going to be the conquest of Canaan. Which, you’d think there’d be historical evidence, and there is. Every siege the Bible mentions, there’s archaeological evidence supporting it. The conquests of the Jews is supported in the Late Bronze Age Collapse. There were diseases proceeding forth from God to help the Israelites win. And there’s a sharp reduction of populations during the thirteenth century. So, all of that lines up with the Biblical record.

But, you’d think if the Jews existed, they would have left evidence. Well, they did. There’s a structure that is patterned off of the biblical pattern of an altar. It was found on Mt. Ebal. There was Kosher animal ashes discovered at the site. The best records of the site date to about 1250bc. They found the lead tablet talked about in Joshua. They found the Tetragrammaton on that tablet. They found references to Jeremiah and Hezekiah—who visited the altar. And so, this is evidence yet again of the Jews right after the Exodus.

Then, there’s more evidence. Can you believe it? There’s a stele called the Merneptah stele, dated to around 1210bc, which names Israel, and Pharaoh boasts of having destroyed the Seed of Israel. Which, means he likely went through and burned all the records pertaining to them. As, Pharaoh and ancient civilizations were very keen on the records they kept. But, it mentions Israel by name. Obviously Israel wasn’t destroyed, as it’s still a people today. So, likely, this is just a fabrication of Pharaoh’s who would prefer them not to be in the Canaan strip, where they ensconced themselves, and also practiced their worship of God through the Law.

“But wait! The Bible wasn’t written until 400BC!” Nope. The Bible, because of something called Loan Words, was written in the thirteenth century. It was written in the Late Bronze age, due to Egyptian Words being used that didn’t exist at any other time. So, for that transference of data, the Bible would have had to be written around 1300bc and continued until, well, today actually. There’s still a record kept of the Jewish people, dating from this time of Moses to now.

And, you might say, “Well the Bible plagiarized Ancient Near East Myths.” Nope. Those myths are found in Assyrian libraries. The Bible does predate that. And, not to mention, there’s indirect references in the story of Abraham to a law found in Mesopotamian culture around 1950bc. It was on a law called the “Lipit-Ishtar”. And this was a law with regard to a prostitute—a concubine—and the person had to keep them like a wife. But, Abraham was told not to do this. Which shows, for that detail to exist into modern day, a continual transference of information dating back to at least 1950bc, but I would argue earlier.

So, there’s two different accounts in Genesis, and two different traditions being outlined. One of El (God) and the other of Yahweh. I believe these were both the same tradition, the one of El coming from Abraham, and the one of Yahweh coming from Jacob. And these two traditions, and the Law of God, came from the first instances of Monotheism in the world. So, the stories in Genesis were originated by the Jews, that’s what this evidence shows. And not only that, there’s two separate traditions—that’s why the Bible repeats itself sometimes, which I’ll get to later—and these two separate traditions were likely composed by witnesses of the events themselves. The slight differences are what we’d expect from witness testimony. It’s just a matter of fact, that this is what witness testimony looks like.

Which gets us to the prophets and the chroniclers of the Kings of Judah and Israel, that they were written down by witnesses, and transferred, as I’ve proven, at the time those events were taking place. So, the Old Testament, the entirety of it, were written by eye witness, and that I’ve just proven.

“Ah, but what about the New!” Here we actually have even more evidence to support. For one thing, Jesus actually existed. There’s about half a dozen references outside of the Bible to Jesus, some by famous historians. There’s internal evidence in the scripture saying Jesus lived, being that He sweat blood, a condition called hematohidrosis which the writers couldn’t have forged. And also He died, because the water flowing from His wound is consistent with a Heart Attack.  This heart attack, what happens is a pustule sac develops beneath the rib cage, in pre cardiac arrest, and when it ruptures, it creates what looks like water. And when the centurion punctured Jesus, that pus flowed from His wound. Which could only be consistent with an actual death. Jesus could not have survived that.

So, also, how do we know the Gospels are true? Well, again, people as early as 90ad, were quoting copious amounts of information from the Gospels, Clement, Ignatius, Polycarp, and it was already established at least then. What we do have is Papais saying who wrote two gospels. Matthew and Mark. Matthew was composed in Hebrew and later translated into Greek by Matthew. And Mark was given by Peter, who spoke it to him, and he wrote it down. Luke accompanied Paul, and therefore Paul, we know, met with James and Peter, being given the first creed of the faith, “He is God who died and raised”, and not only this, Luke would have known witnesses of the Gospel, too. So Acts and Luke were written through the testimony of first hand witnesses, so was Mark and Matthew.

The only one really difficult to believe based on evidence is John’s gospel. But, it was written at about 100ad to 120ad. Which if John were even 30 years old at Christ’s death, he could conceivably live to 120. That’s not out of the realm of possibility. Especially since Rome was a pretty hearty civilization. So, the Gospels were being written about 60ad, about thirty years after Christ’s death. Because they were copiously quoted by the Church Fathers at 90ad. I just showed that their origins are documented. And John could have lived to be 120, and if he were even an eleven year old when Christ died—who knows, right?—he could have been even younger when that Gospel was written. Which, we’re not talking about a lifespan outside of the reach of a human life. We’re talking thirty to seventy years after Christ died, that’s when the Gospels were written. Within the span of a human life.

Not to mention, Papais' source for who wrote Matthew and Mark was St. John, proving he was indeed alive at 90ad, only a decade before the Gospel of John was written at the earliest.

And again, it’s important to understand that historians documented some of these disciple’s deaths. Some of these men knew Jesus, or were related to Jesus, and they died on the testimony that Christ raised, and ate and broke bread with them. They were willing to sometimes die unspeakable deaths just for this testimony. Which, is important because a person doesn’t die willingly for what they know isn’t true. It’s one thing if the faith is far removed, and it’s a story. But these people lived it… and they would be the first to know if it were faked. And, Josephus documents that James, the LORD’s brother, died by stoning for this testimony.
So… both Old and New Testament are sufficed in the evidence. And they are witness accounts from the time periods. So, I firmly believe in them.

To conclude, there’s clear evidence of Judaism existing prior to Babylonian Captivity. And  the evidence puts it at right when Judaism claims to have been founded. So, it’s actually older than most of the sources we have from the ANE.
It’s neat, actually. El (God) and Yahweh are probably the original monotheistic faiths. The evidence points to this, too, and I think Genesis was meant to combine the traditions of El and Yahweh into one master tradition. That being the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

And as for Jesus, there's clear reason to believe the Gospels are eyewitness accounts, and not fabrications.






Podcast The Evidence for Jesus Transcription

So I'm gonna go over a comprehensive analysis of the evidence that the scripture is true. So the first thing, how do we know the Bible's true? First thing that always comes up is the flood. Couldn't happen? Well, there's actually flood myths in every continent on the Earth, where there's people inhabiting it, and how does that happen? It's not a very good explanation to say that it's because they lived in flood plains; the fact is, it always has the same story of one person surviving on boat or some other object. And that's a common theme throughout all of them, which shows a common origin of the myth, which isn't so much a myth, if you think that had to have actually happened if this is what's dispersed across the entire world.
 
Second thing is the Lipit-Ishtar, and this is a law of Mesopotamia that basically described what Abraham's behavior toward his prostitute Hagar was, and this was in 1950 BC. And it's important that we understand this because in 1950 BC, this is when Abraham would have lived. If you take up all the genealogies, I mean, all the chronologies of the kings and stuff from Persian restoration, which we have an exact date for that it lines up exactly with 1950, etc, because the judges would overlap. And that's just a fact. And so right when Abraham is said to live, we find the Lipit-Ishtar. which shows not only that Abraham lived possibly but also a continual transference of written data because this would have been impossibly hard to forge with bronze age information technology---it would have been impossible to forge a detail like that.

And then there is something called the Wadi El Hol, which was a inscription in Egypt of cave scribings of basically ancient Canaanite script (even more ancient than Canaanite script). And for those of you who say that there was no other people who had a different language in Egypt, there actually are words written on the cave wall at Wadi El Hol, and this is dated to around 1850 BC, right around the time when Joseph would be coming to Egypt and his people going there.

Which gets to another thing, is in 1450 BC, Pharaoh erected a pillar at the temple of Soleb. It has the name of God Yahweh and also shows bound slaves being led away, and the slaves are called a wandering people. Now this is important because the Jews, they were a wandering people through the land of Egypt, and then they were enslaved and their God was Yahweh. 

Okay, next 1340BC, we see right at the tip of the 18th Egyptian dynasty, two things actually. One is that there's chariot spokes that an archaeologist, although this is disputed, took out of the Red Sea at Nuweiba beach, and he had it accredited by a prominent artifact historian and they dated it at 18th Egyptian dynasty; and this artifact shows that there was chariots from that time period off the coast of Nuweiba beach, and they found tons of them, but again, this is a disputed artifact.

But then you have the cult of Akhenaten's. What could change a Pharaoh so radically, if not witnessing that your slave peoples' God acted on their behalf by helping them cross a sea? What else can cause this? I don't see anything else. It's just randomly Akhenaten up and starts worshipping Aten. Why this is, it's probably because the Jews showed some pretty strange stuff and some strange miracles, and it convinced the Pharaoh to become, now they say it was monotheistic. Some people dispute that but it doesn't matter. There's a change in the religion; that shows us at the very the least something new is added to the Pantheon that wasn't there before. 

Then you have in 1250 BC, a newly discovered thing is the altar at Mount Ebal, which is exactly where it was supposed to be. And it was patterned off of a Jewish altar, and had ramps instead of steps. They did some scientific analysis on the ashes found at the site. They found only kosher animals, although they did find some deer and some wildlife. But it was all kosher animals showing that there was actually a Jewish altar. They found a lead tablet mentioned in Joshua, and on it, it mentions both El and Yah, but this is important because it's a huge thought up until now in academia that El and Yah were two different traditions that were merged together around 950 BC. This is actually not true because in 1250 BC, we have these two traditions right next to one another. Now while I do believe that there were two traditions, El from Abraham and Yah from Jacob at 1250bc, it's probably around 1300 BC when Joshua would have been conquering Canaan and writing the Bible. This shows that the Bible is being created at this time period it describes, which we'll get to the next thing. This is actually a concurrent proof that they already merged the two traditions of Jacob and Abraham and also that this was an important discovery because they were worshipping the God of Jacob Abraham and Isaac from 1300 BC, which is right when the Bible was said to be written. 

And we know that the Bible was also written at this time because of concurrent late bronze age phraseology that would have only been found in Egypt in the late bronze age; so we can pin the Bible as being written around 1300 BC.  So right at the time period when Moses would have been conquering Canaan.

And even more evidence than this--- I know there's a lot isn't there? It's pertinent to understand that right at this time period, there's a late bronze age collapse that can't be explained by anything except plagues, and what does God send before the Israelites? Not to mention, there's about three sieges that are mentioned in Scripture. Every one of them has been archaeologically discovered, including Jericho. There's a site of Jericho; they're all sieges, and this shows that these sites were actually conquered by Israel. 

And if this isn't enough, there's one more piece of evidence called the Merneptah Stele, which was erected around 1210 BC, which has the name of Israel on it and likely the reason for this is that Pharaoh said he destroyed the seed of Israel completely. What he probably meant was he destroyed any record and censored the Israelites from ever existing. 

Okay, so now we get into other stuff because this was all the Exodus and before the Exodus--- Now we're after the Exodus and at Khirbet Qeiyafa, they found a tablet, a clay pot that had inscriptions on it from the law of telling you how to treat slaves nicely and praising God; and also, there's Sinai 349, which basically is a censure against Baal worship. 

Okay, we have lots of evidence here, I'm gonna have to go over it all.

Then jump forward about 200 years, you have a Stele called the Tel Dan Stele, which has a battle written on it, basically, exactly what the Bible says. It was king Jehoram who was in the battle and it's exactly what the Bible says. And guess what! It says HouseDavid on it; the house of David, showing that there was indeed a second kingdom of the Davidic bloodline, which is important. 

So now we've established that the scripture was written in 1300. We're seeing that it's actually being written at the time periods it describes. 

Okay, fast forward a little bit more. You got the siege of Babylon at Jerusalem. And this is pretty well known, and is really not that disputed, but we'll go over it anyways. The Nebuchadnezzar Chronicles, which chronicles Nebuchadnezzar sacking of Jerusalem. Fast forward about another seventy years, you get the Edict of Cyrus sending them back home, and then you fast forward about another 300 years, in 100 BC, you get the Dead Sea Scrolls, which has Isaiah perfectly preserved. It's exactly within 99% accuracy of what we have today. Very few little things change. But the important thing is that Isaiah 53 is still in the Scripture perfectly preserved. This is exactly what's in our Scripture today, but it's clearly a prophecy of Jesus. And I find that to be one of the most revealing facts that when we have these "quote unquote" scholars saying that there are anachronisms in the Bible, this proves that those anachronisms are not actually anachronisms, but are fulfilled prophecies.

Onto the next thing, 31ad. In 31ad we know Christ lived and died because of two particular pieces of evidence. One is a work written by Phlegon of Tralles, which has a reference to the three hours of darkness during the crucifixion. Now, this is secondhand because it's written in someone else's work saying that this had existed previously. But it's pretty much authentic. And the reason why we know this, is because in China, there's another concurrent record from about 31ad talking about the same exact eclipse happening at Passover. And this is the Chronicles of Guangwu, when they even prophesied Christ, it said, "Man from heaven died and covers the sins of all the people. Yin and Yang are reversed." It's amazing stuff, amazing stuff. And this is actually in the Chronicles; you can actually look it up in the original text, it's still in there. It's amazing. I was dumbfounded, I didn't believe it. And I had to go look up the text to see if it was reality. It's actually a really in there. 

And then you have another thing that proves Jesus existed. So we can't have people saying that Jesus never existed. A couple of things. Actually, one is a Roman historian Tacitus, who basically said Jesus was crucified under Pilate. And we would know that if he had any reason to doubt this, he would have said Jesus didn't exist because Rome wanted to crush Christianity, at this time, and it would have been too easy to go out and lie about it, if they had not kept the records of crucifixions and stuff, which they did back then. It would have been too easy to go down there and see that this was fake, if it were. And he basically must have went down to the records of Rome, and see that Jesus was actually crucified under Pontius Pilate. So Jesus had actually existed. That's Tacitus of Rome. 

And then though, this was about 50 years after, it's really kind of silly, because you know, there's really no historian that talks of contemporary events that much, especially things like this that are happening among the peasants. This isn't really something that's really big news to people, except for the common people. But after about 50 years later, it's typical that if it's creating enough stir in society, it'll be talked about; but it's only 50 years, people: it's not that much. 

And then there's Jesus sweating blood in pouring out water from his wound. Now, this is consistent with the heart attack, the water coming out of this wound. There's a pustule sac that develops around the ribcage during pre cardiac arrest. And then there's hematohydrosis, which is a condition of sweating blood, which is a disputed passage right now in the Scripture, but it shouldn't be disputed at all, because basically, Jesus sweat blood. It's what happens when you get really, really, really, really, really, really anxious. You can sometimes sweat blood and this would happen to Jesus, and there had been no way these two things could have been forged. Absolutely no way. It's just impossible. The people don't even today think of it having anything but a mystical significance. We don't realize that this is medical conditions and people back then, they didn't think to add those type of details; they couldn't. They didn't have compendiums upon companions and medical records and Google and things like that, to know that it actually happened, which is also another reason why we can think that the Bible's not myths being put together because that's kind of stupid, because it just seems to be authentically the history of a people. The water is the real point there, that piercing wasn't part of crucifixion, so Jesus had to have been pierced on the cross.

Now, lets get into two of the apostles, and their testimonies and how I can pretty much say that their belief is proof of the Bible.

One is James the LORD's Brother. Josephus records that James the LORD's brother died by stoning, and this on the testimony that Jesus ate and broke bread with him after He resurrected.  And James died for it. The LORD's brother. Now you don't die for something you don't believe in. It's not like a thousand years later, where these people just had faith. They actually touched, lived, ate and broke bread with Jesus. And a common misconception that Jesus actually survived the crucifixion, he couldn't have, as the water flowing from his wound is indicative of certain death. It must have been catastrophic heart failure.

And not only that. we know that Jesus actually manifested to these people, because of Doubting Thomas. Doubting Thomas actually touched Jesus. He actually touched Him. And Jesus could have only but died. And doubting Thomas touched Him, and knew that this was His savior. Now this is so important because it's just more proof on the testimony of these men that Jesus actually raised from the Dead.

And as a last note, Papias is said to have dictated the book of John from John's word and testimony. And we'd have no doubt, that this were true, because Papias was a martyr of the faith, dying for the testimony of the truth of John's witness. And this is a final testimony, of a martyr, on the testimony that the Gospel is true.

There's a lot more than that that I've gone through, but it's just indisputable, based on evidence, that the Bible is true. Anyone who says otherwise is just lying through their teeth.
