About the Book
Conventional biblical scholars tentatively position Moses during the Ancient Egyptian New Kingdom reign of Ramses II. Not much evidence supports this view. However, the Egyptian Twelfth Dynasty stories provide so many details which match Exodus details, that these coincidences strongly suggest that both sources are describing the same events. Also, a theory from the controversial Immanuel Velikovsky – that the Passover angel was a comet – fits into this reconstruction. In addition, a reading by psychic Edgar Cayce identifies the “abused Hebrew” as Moses’ previously unknown sister, Sidiptu. The reading hints that Moses killed the pharaoh who despoiled her. This reconstruction not only identifies Moses in the Egyptian literature, but also this sister and nine other characters, seven pharaohs among them. Includes: -a chart identifying the 12th Dynasty pharoahs as characters of the Exodus -a merged chronology of the 12th Dynasty stories with Moses´ life events -a seven page parallel chronology matching events of the bible with Egyptian 12th Dynasty events -twelve family trees that position Moses and his role in some of these Egyptian stories -14 selected stories summarized and superimposed on Exodus events -a 67 page glossary of relevant items -a twelve page bibliography
