[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mystery Solver: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mystery Solver: The rivalry with corresponding aggression and destruction marked a chaotic period, wherein Israelites amongst themselves and against other groups, struggled to survive and attain political domination, making record keeping quite difficult. Hence, under such situations of relative chaos, sparse and scattered reference to a [i]questionably intact[/i] social group under the "Israelite" banner would have had to go up against greater odds against survival for the ages to come...[/QUOTE]Hence, [i]***[b]While Israel’s allies shared political and military allegiances, they didn’t share religious views[/b]. *** In addition, [b]many of the Egyptians who left Egypt with Moses did not subscribe to Atenist orthodoxy[/b]. The [b]presence of Canaanite, Greek and Egyptian deities and priests within the Israelite ranks fueled dissention among the mainstream Atenists[/b], leading [b]to a variety of conflicts, intrigues, and schisms.[/b] It is at about [b]this point in history that our inquiry into Israel’s origins ends.[/b] Shortly [b]thereafter the monarchy[/b] emerged. Under King David, [b]a fusion of ideals seems to have taken place.[/b] On the one hand, [b]he established the orthodox Atenist view as the central religion of ancient Israel.[/b] On the other, however, [b]he (and Solomon after him) seems to have encouraged all the other factions to worship in their own way, as long as they recognized the fundamental supremacy of the Atenist priesthood.[/b] Much of the [b]subsequent Israelite writing about this time revolves around these religious feuds and schisms[/b].
