Brief History of the House of Israel. truth be known that the ancient Semites were smelting copper and mining turquoise in the Sinai peninsula, then trading it with the Sumerians as far as 4,000 BC, and populated the region even earlier, way before the king Menes of Egypt unified the Upper and Lower kingdoms into the 1st dynastic rule of the Old Kingdom, and any "Jews" and Arabs existing as we know it today. Abraham, aka Amenemhat, and his followers left Sumeria and Canaan, not Babylon which was much later, granted in the same region. The word Hebrew is derived from hapiru people, the workers of Egypt, who followed the exodus of the royal house of Israel, the House of David. The title Pharaoh, there was no such title during that time, Abraham was the first to have it. He was a prominent noble/rich Semite who also married into the Sumerian royalty and thus had much influence in the region. Hyksos had their own royalty, they simply were allies with the Semites and Sumerians against the Egyptians, more specifically the Menes/Min/Minos/etc families, who ruled most of the ancient world at that time. the story of the House of Israel started from the ancient Semites living in the Sinai peninsula who by the 12th dynasty invaded, in their fight back against the institutionalized Egyptian (King Menes dynasties) raids on their smelting and mining operations, along with the Hittite, so-called Hyksos, army, the lower Egypt, and installed their/our own king Amenemhat I (Amen is the head) aka Abraham (Father Ra of the land of Kham, i.e. black fertile soil of the delta region and the Mediterranean crescent, the old name for Egypt). The hold of this new royal house of Egypt, the House of Israel and later the House of David aka Thoth, lasted until the famous 18th dynasty, when all hell broke lose culminating with the exodus led by Akhenaten (Moses), around 880 BC. As you have noticed the conventional chronology is off by five centuries, as Immanuel Velikovsky has pointed out. there are many books that i have read, articles, conversations i have had with the biblical scholars, plus i have studied in the rabbinical college and did my own research. so, no links that would tell you this version of history, only bits and pieces. i am also systems analyst and programmer by degree so i have used my skills to process this ancient mythology into a coherent narrative. i mean, you can read Sigmund Freud and Ahmed Osman (Out of Egypt) about Moses Akhenaten, although Ahmed's position on Jesus being Tutankhamun is wrong, he was son of Cleopatra and Julius Caesar named Caesarion, Immanuel Velikovsky (Pensee VI), also 'The Age Of Velikovsky' by C.J.Ransom, about the alternative chronology, Behind The Bible by Hermes about the Egyptian connection, wrong as it may, it offers interesting insights, and many other books. The State of Israel I saw this meme going around, stating "100% of Israel settlements are illegal under international law," which is complete nonsense. "The irony is that a genuine Palestinian state already exists on the East Bank of the Jordan river. When Britain conquered the Turkish Ottoman Empire at the end of World War I, she allocated five million square miles of Ottoman territory to the local inhabitants. Britain gave 99.8 percent of the conquered land to the Arabs. Only one-fifth of one percent (0.2) of the land was reserved by Britain to establish a Jewish National Home to allow the Jews of the world (who were persecuted in many countries at that time) to return to their (ancestral) Promised Land after two thousand years of exile. The Balfour Declaration of November 2, 1917, declared that the whole of the British Mandate territory, including both sides of the Jordan river, was to be given to the Jews for their homeland."*1 This is Jewish territory already, the later carving up of Israel to allow the Palestinian enclaves within its borders makes Israel vulnerable and hard to defend, virtually impossible, according to the Pentagon and other military experts. "On 15 May 1948, as part of the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, Jordan invaded Palestine together with other Arab states, in which eastern Jerusalem fell into the country's control through several battles including Battle of Jerusalem and Battle of Latrun, the latter was a decisive Jordanian victory. Following the war, Jordan occupied the West Bank and on 24 April 1950 Jordan formally annexed these territories, an act that was regarded as illegal and void by the Arab League. At the Jericho Conference on 1 December 1948, 2,000 Palestinian delegates supported a resolution calling for "the unification of Palestine and Transjordan as a step toward full Arab unity"."*2 The problem nowadays is that Jordan does not want the West Bank anymore with the Palestinian Arabs there, since they are the minority in Hashemite Kingdom of the Jordan, and are not popular. *1 - p. 250 Apocalypse -- The Coming Judgment Of The Nations by Grant R.
