ABSOLUTE CHRONOLOGY OF THE ANCIENT WORLD
based on Astronomy and the Pharaonic Lists of Kings
|
|
|
THE MIDIANITES of MOSES
are the HYKSOS of Egyptian History
and of the15th Dynasty of Ancient Egypt
|
|
|
A review of the Egyptian hieroglyphs shows the following parallels of names. There are many errors in the readings by Egyptologists.
|
|
|
There are 5 known Hyksos Kings - and 5 Midianite Kings in the Bible
|
|
The Cartouches of the Kings are pictured and explained at Cartouche.
|
|
|
Hyksos King Scheschi (Maaibre) is Midianite King EVI
|
|
Hyksos King Jakobher (Meruserre) is Midianite King REBA
|
|
Hyksos King Chian (Sueserenre) is Midianite King HUR
|
|
Hyksos King Apopi I (Auserre) is Midianite King ZUR
|
|
Hyksos King Apopi II (Aqenenre) is Midianite King REKEM
|
|
|
The "King" Anather is the Biblical Judge GIDEON (Jerubboseth) and his name points to his leadership in the founding of New Salem, i.e. New Jerusalem - see the cartouches. In other words, Jerusalem was founded after the outbreak of the volcano Santorin on Thera which must have destroyed the old city.
|
|
no cartouches
|
The "King" Jakbam is Gideon´s son ABIMELECH (Jephtah). There is no cartouche around the names because, as the Bible reports, Gideon refused kingship.

Moses
is born circa 1708 BC
according to Artapanus
|
At the age of 40, before Exodus, Moses first fled [ca. 1667 BC] from Egypt and sought refuge among the Midianites (2 Moses 2, 15) who - on the basis of Egyptian Hieroglyphs - were none other than the Hyksos, which the British Museum Dictionary of Ancient Egypt describes as follows (p. 136):
|
|
The
Hyksos
|
HYKSOS: "...a Palestinian group...
who migrated into Egypt during the late Middle Kingdom (c. 1800-1650 BC) and rose to power in Lower Egypt during the Second Intermediate Period (1650-1550 BC)."
|
|
The
Midianites
|
MIDIANITES (also called ISHMAELITES, Enc. Brit.):
The Lion Handbook of the Bible notes that the Midianites "were descendants of Abraham through his second wife, Keturah."
(1 Moses 25,2 and 1 Chronicles 1,32) Abraham had sent all the sons of Keturah into the desert. As noted in the Encyclopaedia Britannica, "they engaged in pastoral pursuits, caravan trading and banditry... Jethro, priest-leader of the Midianite subtribe the Kenites, and his daughter Zipporah (a wife of Moses), influenced early Hebrew thought: it was Yahweh, the lord of the Midianites, who was revealed to Moses as the God of the Hebrews."
|
|
What did Moses have to do with the Midianites?
|
Moses took Zipporah as his wife and the priest Jethro became his father-in-law. In spite of this, because of the alliance of the Kenites with the Moabites in the days of Exodus, Moses ordered his people to handle the Midianites as enemies because of ther idolatry (4 Moses 22, 4-7, 5 Moses 16-18) and indeed their five kings Evi, Rekem, Zur Hur and Reba (5 Moses 8) and all their cities were burned to the ground (5 Moses 10).

As noted in the Chronicle of the Pharaohs by Peter A. Clayton, newest excavations clearly indicate that the cities in the northeastern Nile Delta were completely destroyed at the end of the Hyksos period.
