My Next Book Due in February 2019 Genesis
Chronology and Egyptian King-lists:
Volume 1: Egypt's Dynastic Period About this book Revealed! the hidden links between Genesis Chronology and Egyptian History The Book of Genesis
contains a 2,300-year chronology of Patriarchal births and
deaths, from Adam to Joseph. Most biblical scholars believe the
lists were fictional creations but Gary Greenberg, the provocative
author of The Moses Mystery, says the birth and death dates contain a
disguised but accurate chronology of Egypt’s dynastic history. Based on a deep and thorough examination of
the many problems in establishing an accurate Egyptian chronology,
Greenberg makes a compelling case that an alignment of the Genesis
birth-death chronology with the High Egyptian Chronology favored by
many Egyptologists demonstrates a
precise one-to-one relationship between most Genesis birth and death
dates and the starting years for Egypt’s first eighteen dynasties
and many of its most important kings.
Some of the surprising discoveries in
Genesis Chronology and
Egyptian King-lists
·
The
patriarch Enoch lived 365 years, a puzzling solar reference from a
lunar calendar culture. What very important astronomical and
chronological event (utilized by Egyptologists) happened in the year
he died?
·
The
patriarch Methuselah lived for 969 years, the longest-lived person
in the bible. What important Egyptian political period lasted 969
years and ended in the year Methuselah died?
·
The
patriarch Eber’s birth and death dates coincide with the same years
in which two of Egypt’s most important and celebrated political
events occurred. Find out what they were.
·
The
patriarch Peleg’s name means “divided.” What division occurred in
Egypt in the year Peleg died? Which important Egyptian king ascended
to the throne in the year Peleg was born?
·
The
patriarch Joseph guided the Pharaoh to unprecedented political power
in Egypt. What is the chronological and political correlation
between Joseph’s rise to power and the Thutmosid kings?

My Blog As of July 1, 2018 all news and updates about Gary Greenberg will appear on his blog site at www.biblemythhistory.com My primary (but not exclusive) focus on this blog will be to explore problem areas in biblical studies, both Jewish and Christian, that either remain unresolved in academic circles or that I believe need to be reconsidered from a new perspective. My main areas of concern are source criticism, outside influences, historical credibility of scriptures, and chronological issues. Hope you'll check it out and spread the word.

It deals head-on with many of the problems that have troubled scholars for years, including the difficult and inconsistent stories of Judas Iscariot, the involvement of Jewish authorities in Jesus' death, and the increasing tendency of the gospel authors to find ways to exonerate Pilate."
