[QUOTE]Originally posted by ausar: [QB] Have you ever read the book Egypt,Caanan,and Israel by Donald Redford. How about Israeli archaeologist named Israel Finkelstien? My sugestion if to read some of these books that present hard archaeological fact yet at the same time do not try to mimize the biblical accounts. My knowleadge of Caanan is not as vast as it is with ancient Egyptian soceity. What I do know comes from my understanding of Egyptian history. I know that Egyptians were set up as garrisons in some parts of Palestine,however,none of these people were numerous enough to leave mass populations. Egyptians themselves were very weary of being buried in foregin lands as in the case of the stories of Sabni and Sinhue. Both these accounts deal with how these Egyptians were forced back into their homeland to be buried alongside the Nile. Egyptians sometimes allowed local people to run their own territories while extracting tribute from them. This was most likley the case with Palestine or other parts. Even in Nubia most of the viceroys of Kush were native Kushites,but sometimes they were Egyptian. The Africaness of the Egyptians does not rely on Hebrew folklore,but on current archaeological and anthropological studies. We don't need the Bible[Torah] to justify the blackness or Africaness of the ancient Egyptians. Could you show me where in traditional circles the pressence of Abraham is accepted by most academics. Present evidence please. From reading the biblical story of Abraham we discover that Abraham loans his sister/wife to the pharoah. She gives the unidentifiable pharoah some veneral diease. Know tell me also why Abraham treats an Egyptian princess,Hagar,like total trash. Even Yaweah condems the poor Egyptian women. Such a close connection to people who won't even accept an Egyptian women. [/QB][/QUOTE]
