Thanks for such great and wonderful information! ❤
Just ordered Dr. Petrovich book from Is Genesis History's website, thank you!
Thank you again and again from India (goa) for deep informations. GOD bless you sir...
Praise to the LORD GOD! Thank you so much Dr. Petrovich, now I know why Josheph refer himself as father of Pharaoh in Genesis 42:6, only make sense when it has a transition over the throne in 14 years period! And how the new Pharaoh in Exodus 1:8 didn't know Josheph, because transition from the Middle Kingdom to New Kingdom!
6 Now Joseph was the governor of the land, the person who sold grain to all its people. So when Joseph’s brothers arrived, they bowed down to him with their faces to the ground. Genesis 42:6 what are you talkin about
@@sirnunez7923 My bad! The verse I mentioned above is 45:8
"So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God. He made me father to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household and ruler of all Egypt.”
Thank you for let me know!
I also thought what! Thank you. What a great verse. Joseph is a metaphor of Jesus. Jesus is the Sceptre, King of Kings over the world in its fallen nature. Only he truly knows the famine and pestilence. He is also the rescuer in times of a spiritual desert. Num 24:17 “I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth.”
Very m convincing. Thanks for all the hard work. Can't wait for the next episode!
Hallelujah
Wonderful vid , thanks so much. Awesome how God works ..😊🕊️
Fascinating stuff!
Excellent.
Utterly Fascinating!
Thank you 💖
Hmmm, great info. Well worth consideration. Thank you.
Fascinating!
Thank you this was so cool!
Excellent Real News Report!!!
Love the facts
The table of Dr. Petrovitch appears to be similar to Bietak's but leaves out that C/2 and C/3 only were defined by changes in the Palace District art. The dates of the reign of the pharaohs are different. One can still find the original paper of his from Toronto University online where he exactly reproduces Bietak's timeline table.
Can I have more information about your book?
Who did you publish with?
Thanks from South Korea.
I have a question, and a statement.
Statement: From what I learned years ago, that the Egyptians looked down on shepherds as unclean, lower class people.
So, if they engraved a shepherd's crook/staff into stone, common sense tells me that they are depicting someone other than an Egyptian.
Question: When they lay a graph out on a perspective dig, start digging and discover the true alignment of the ruins below, why don't archaeologist realign there graph, so it lines up with the ruins below?
Gen 46:34 “That ye shall say, Thy servants' trade hath been about cattle from our youth even until now, both we, and also our fathers: that ye may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination unto the Egyptians.” Egypt is a metaphor of the world and Shepherds are a metaphor of men of God, with their flocks. The world hates God fearing leaders.
The Israelites were only in Egypt for around 215 years. The genealogies don't add up to 430 years from Kohath (who went with Jacob to Egypt) to Moses being 80 at the time of the exodus so it's impossible they were there that long. Also the Exodus happens too late if 430 years is taken. Galatians 3:17 also tells us the 430 year period was actually from Abraham to the giving of the law, so again this makes it impossible for the Israelites to have been in Egypt for that long. The Israelites were 215 years in Canaan before going to Egypt (before God gave them that land) and another 215 years in Egypt. The Septuagint says in Exodus 12:40 "and the sojourning of the children of Israel while they sojourned in the land of Egypt AND the land of Canaan was 430 years."
I have looked up 3 versions and all 3 says only egypt does not mention Canaan
@@ronnietolliver7483although the hebrew word "Mizraim" already entails the philistines.
If you count 400 years backwards from Exodus, you get the period when Isaac is 5 years old and that coincides with Abimelech stopping up at Abraham's well.
And if you count 430 years from Abraham's arrival in egypt to Exodus, you get the same date for Exodus.
185 (years in Philistia) +215 (Egypt)= 400 ---- 400 years of sojourning of the Abrahams descendants (Genesis 15).
30 years is the time period from Abraham's arrival at Egypt in 1921 BC until the weaning of Isaac and Abimelech making a treaty with Abraham (Genesis 21) in 1891 BC. 400 years from here, you get 1491 BC for Exodus.
You count 430 years backwards from 1491 BC , you get 1921 BC.
You count 480 years after Exodus in 1491 BC, you get 1011 BC (3 Kings 6:1).
480 years from the Exodus to the first year of the building of the temple fits with this too.
The New Pharaoh not knowning Joseph is not a probelm, because any pharaoh could have known his reforms and effects of it.
We are talking about a Pharaoh who doesn't recognize Joseph and his deeds and perceives them as nothing.
We need a revision of chronology.
More importantly, though, what relevance does this have to the Bible? Well, in the conventional chronology, there is little more than circumstantial evidence for the exodus. James Hoffmeier and Kenneth Kitchen have argued for an exodus during the reign of Rameses II (13th century according to mainstream chronology). There are enormous problems with this identification. For example, it contradicts the biblical figure of 480 years between the exodus and the building of the Temple. Furthermore, we have Rameses’ mummy- he clearly didn’t pursue Israel into the Red Sea. Most importantly, however, we have these words from Pharaoh’s counselors:
(Exodus 10:7) Then Pharaoh's servants said to him, "How long shall this man be a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve the Lord their God. Do you not yet understand that Egypt is ruined?"
The exodus and the plagues of Egypt were not minor events in the ancient world. If they occurred, they brought about the ruin of Egypt, probably for an extensive period of time.
The backbone of any revisionist chronology must be the devastation of Egypt. The book of Judges doesn't even mention Egypt as a hegemony, because its power had shattered.
The basic outline of Egyptian history by mainstream historians is as follows:
1. Old Kingdom.
2. First Dark Age
3. Middle Kingdom
4. Second Dark Age
5. New Kingdom
6. Sack of Thebes
As you can see, there are two dark ages here. Revisionists such as Donovan Courville have argued that the Old and Middle Kingdoms actually ran parallel to each other, and that the two dark ages ought to be identified. That’s neither here nor there at this point (though it will be). We only have to ask whether one of these ages corresponds with the events surrounding the exodus. And it does.
When Israel comes out of Egypt, in Exodus 17, they discover and fight a group of Semites called Amalekites- but why are the Amalekites there? In the second dark age of Egyptian history, a group of Semites called Hyksos invaded and quickly conquered Egypt, ruling brutally for several centuries until finally being expelled by Ahmose I (thus inaugurating the New Kingdom). Their brutality was legendary. Furthermore, Manetho, an Egyptian historian, records that in the reign of one of the last Middle Kingdom Pharaohs, Dudimose, Egypt was “smote by God” (he says that he forgot the reason) thus allowing the Hyksos to conquer Egypt without a fight.
That sounds like the exodus.
There’s more. The Ipuwer Papyrus has long been noted for its parallels to the Book of Exodus- but the connection has been dismissed, because the chronology doesn’t line up. On a revised chronology, however, it fits together. The Ipuwer Papyrus declares that “the river is blood” that “the children of the neck are slain” that “gold and lapis lazuli have been strung on female slaves” that “darkness is everywhere” and that the Hyksos from the east have invaded and conquered.
That sounds like the exodus.
On Kenneth Griffith revised chronology, Hyksos are semitic Abrahamite tribes in general. It most specifically refers to the Amalekites after the Exodus in 1491 BC. They (most likely Ishmaelities and the sons keturah, as they were said to have a trade of incense and incense route basically went from canaan up to haran down to southern mesopotamia. The Akkadian swords look exactly the same in style as of the hyksos. It is highly plausible that before the Israelite hyksos (in the eyes of egyptians) entered egypt in 1706 BC, the Abraahmite tribes brought in chariots and these kinds of swords).
And that is the pillar of chronological revisionism. Once the exodus is plugged in at this point, one can plug in the conquest forty years later. And what does one see at the end of the Early Bronze Age and the beginning of the Middle Bronze (a new chronology archaeological date for the exodus)? Well:
1. You have a very short layer of nomadic settlements in the Sinai wilderness.
2. You have five conquered cities in the region of Midian, apparently corresponding to what occurred in Numbers 31.
3. In the land of Canaan, the walls of Jericho have fallen outwards, and the city has been totally burned, the grain was not taken and left unsettled- except one small portion of the wall, as Rahab lived in the wall.
4. You have the temple of baal-berith destroyed in the right timeline of the bronze age, during the period of the Judges
5. A dramatic, higher culture, very quickly conquers and replaces an older culture. This is the case in cities all over Canaan.
The relation of the Hyksos to the Amalekites provides another insight into biblical history. Why was it that Saul had to fight the Amalekites in 1 Samuel 15, centuries after the exodus? Revisionists have argued that this is because the Hyksos had just been expelled from Egypt. Hard revisionists like Courville put the expulsion in the life of Saul, while softer revisionists like Rohl date it a century or so earlier. The situation is thus: the Amalekites have been expelled from Egypt by Pharaoh Ahmose, and King Saul is sent to destroy them before they reenter Egypt. Elsewhere in Samuel, David encounters an Amalekite with an Egyptian slave. Saul takes the daughter of Ahimaaz (the grandfather of Ahmose I). Saul's defeat of Agag chronologically synchronizes with Ahmose defeating Apop or Apophis and this suggests that Saul and Ahmose were allies.
This also explains why Egypt and Amalek reappear on the scene at the exact same time in biblical history, which otherwise appears a very curious coincidence. Egypt virtually never appeared throughout the period of the judges, because they were still ruined and ruled by a barbaric people. But within a few decades, Amalek is kicked out and Egypt revives, so that Pharaoh gives his daughter to Solomon.
Speaking of Solomon, taking Courville’s relative dates for Egypt and Israel, this explains why so many people have thought that Israelite proverbs borrowed from Egypt. Actually, when you fix up the chronology, the 18th dynasty (which displays enormous similarity to biblical material) was influenced by Solomon. Allusions to Solomonic proverbs are on the walls. David’s Psalms appear to influence some of their own poems. Love poems such as the Song of Solomon become popular.
I suggest to search Kenneth Griffith's papers on academia or answers research journal.
He had a video series with Seraphim hamilton and now are preparing a video about euhemerism and a detailed rebbutal of one of the criticisms of one of their earlier videos in the series of ancient history and the bible, although they made a mistake and they admit that instead of a picture of a boat which they had, they mistakenly included a picture of a shrine in a slide and misinterpreted it.
There are two Pharaos who die in the year of the Exodus in 1491 BC - Kaankhra sobekhotep, or Konkaris (after whom the hyksos, or the amalekites invade egypt and take his kind of cartouches, for example, Khyan) and Merenra II, based on the external sources.
There is just too many syncrhonisms between the Medes, Scythians and Cimmerians, and the New Kingdom Hittites to be placed in the 1st millenium BC.
For example, according to this revised chronology of egypt, the 19th dynasty can be brought down to VII-VI etc. BC, as the New Kingdom Hittites were actually the coalation of Medes, Scythians and Cimmerians and were reigning upon the conquered Hittites, similar to what Odoacer did to rome.
Identifications can be made in the Kings. Hatusilis III is Cyaxares I the great mentioned in the treaty of kadesh as kedezar (maybe I'm butchering it).
Two of the kings of scythians or cimmerians can be identified as Cyaxares and astyages (Shandakshastra and Ishtivegu).
Tudgamme the cymmerian can be identified with one of the hittite kings as their deeds are basically identical and etc.
Classical historians never knew the Kingdom of a name of the new kingdom hittites, but always refered to them as medes, scythians or cymmerians, depending on the historian.
And the New Kingdom Hittites was placed right in this era before they found the treaty of kadesh that pegged it back hundreds of years earlier.
But When they dug Hattusa they found a persian layer, then a hittite layer, then a phrygian layer. So, seems like that Persians conquered the hittites, huh?
There are supposed reserved cartouches of Merenptah in one of the supposed babylonian destruction layers of one of the cities (cannot remember, but you can watch the series I said) when this already suggests that Merneptah himself destroyed the city.
There's more to tell, but I won't continue.
The book of Griffith will probably be 1000 pages or will surpass it and will be of a great value.
The book "1174BC The Exodus Decoded" by Rick Medved is a fantastic resource to show the 215 years in Egypt and the date of the Exodus. (It might be out of print.). If you seek truth, then find this book.
I would add something in regards to Khyan following Khaakhra, or Konkraris: fieldwork by Egyptologists in 2010 and 2011 into the remains of the former 12th Dynastybuilding, which was still in use at the time of the 13th dynasty, led to the discovery of a large adjoining hall which proved to contain 41 seals showing the cartouche of the Hyksos ruler Khyan together with nine seals naming the 13thdynasty king Ka-ankh-ra Sobekhotep. This indicates that Khyan, who was first of the Amalekite/Hyksos rulers, immediately followed Ka-ankh-ra, and and apparently claimed his belongings by putting his seal on some of them.

Really? You actually expect people to read this whole long diatribe without offering a point that you are attempting to prove at the beginning? That's the appropriate method of the art of argument and logic.
430 years from the call of Abram, 215 years from the time Jacob moved into Egypt, says the Book of Jasher.
I've been trying to get a copy. Where did you find it?
The original book of Jasher has been lost. The book of Jasher we have now has been show to be modern forgery.

I'm betting in the next four years the conditions in Egypt will change so that archeologists can proclaim their true findings without having to worry about pushback from the Egyptian government
Professor, pls use a stake or pointer.
17:00 "NOW, WHO ARE THESE ASIATICS?" - The answer is scandalous
Tell me Dr. Petrovich ... might Avaris come from Ab (father) erets (land)?
I cant wait until we can ask Jesus the true history. We can guess now, an educated guess, still a guess. Heck i bet we can watch it all like a movie or something like it.
Chronology is not correct. The Exodus was 1445. Moses was the Gt grandson of Levi, 4 generations. The 430 years date from the time Abraham entered Canaan.
You need to remember that you are dealing different calendars here as well as different interpretations of period lengths by ancient historians and the dating is poorly understood and could be off by a hundred or more years depending on perspective. Biblically, tracing back 480 years from the build of Solomon’s Temple takes us to the Exodus being 1513 BC. Add 215 (half of the 430 prophesied years) to that and you get 1728 which is perfectly within the right timeframe for all of this to have happened. If you want a more scholarly assessment of the situation I recommend reading Biblical Archaeology: The Date of the Exodus According to Ancient Writers by Dr. Stephen C. Meyers.
You all should watch a spade unearths the truth by Walter veight. Tutmoses the third was the exodus pharoah and 1450 fits the timeline perfectly with his disappearance and a new pharoah. He was the greatest pharoah ever and it is just like God to take down the number 1 to prove He is the only true living God. The reason there are so many different versions is because Satan deceives many false teachers. This guy with his 215 theory needs to do a reality check. Isaac went down to Egypt way after his dad Abraham was dead. If you don't believe that then your calling God a liar. He dictated the Bible to men He chose. There's a lot of facts ignored here. You will see those facts in the above mentioned lecture.
Does anyone know the y-dna of the Hyksos in Avaris?
if anyone knows about the DNA it's probably Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson
Its just one story and it last your entire life
The exodus was in year 1313. The Jews were in Egypt for 210 years.
Almost all time-lines would disagree. Modernism is the real problem. They scoff at credible facts.
I respect you I mean of course you deserve respect look at all that studying you put in and I follow you on more than one account but I know you know better than keep saying Asiatic I know who you know these black people were you are a Christian you should have love and peace in your heart just tell the whole truth these people was not agiatic these people were black and the Jews in Israel has no relations to these people they are Caucasians while the so-called African American with no identity the true children of Israel but nobody wants to tell the whole truth
