The prose style of these kind of documents tends to be pretty epic. "i fall at your feet seven times" nobody nowadays talks with such spirit
Haha true... almost poetic. I wonder what it really sounded like when it was read aloud in the presence of the pharaoh.
Thanks for stopping by, really appreciate it. More to come, stay safe!
Pretty fawning and pathetic.
@@5Gazto I've worked with a lot of people who act just the same way when the boss is around.
Maybe because not everybody in those days could read…
@@5Gazto I’d say more pandering than pathetic. Though there is a servile tone to it.
It is the only channel on UA-cam which provide such deep information on ancient history.
Thanks so much for the kind words, glad you found this useful. Yeah, my goal is to provide enough detail so that you all really learn something but not too much that it becomes boring. Thanks again, I really appreciate it...stay safe!
I think that the idea of Israel being enslaved in Egypt for four centuries comes from the fact that Canaan was an Egyptian province. It makes since if you look at the history and read where Yahweh told Abraham that his descendants would be oppressed in a land that isn’t there’s for 400 years (Genesis 15:13).
always love hearing about events near the Bronze-Age collapse. Important lessons for an interconnected world.
Love all your videos. Here is something I came across about Egypt in Canaan.
Egypt maintained a fortress in Jaffa until 1126BCE.(Burke and Peilstöcker have found evidence of two catastrophic blazes, ten years apart, that destroyed Jaffa, the second one occurring in about 1126 B.C. That fire, Burke believes, marked the end of Egypt’s presence not just in Jaffa, but in all of Canaan)
Great video as always! Keep em’ comin’ 😁👍🏽
Since all conspiracy was removed these are my favourite videos
Would be really useful if you labeled part 1 etc in the title, to make them easier to find...or at least make each next segment pop up in a window at the end.
Yeah, sorry about that...it's a good idea. I'll add some pop ups and links soon. Here's the Canaan playlist which might help to sort the timeline out.

Very well made Cy. Like most your videos this is the 2nd time I have watched it and still picking up new details.
Love the narration on the intro of the Bronze Age. Very informative!

WHAT AN AMAZING WORK YOU ARE DOING SIR!
Subscribed and thank you!
Interesting summary, thanks for posting !
Thanks bud, appreciate the kind words...stay safe!
12 minutes well spent.
Thanks Husam, always great to hear from you. Also, love the Assyrian page! Stay safe my friend!
Some attention to the economic factors that lead to the end of the Late Bronze Age would be helpful. If I’m not mistaken, a collapse in the lowland urban economies was a driving factor in the movement of people into the central highlands and a pastoral way of life,
As well as the Climate Change and the increase of Seismic activity in the Eastern Mediterranean.
But what could’ve caused large groups to “run for the hills” as it were, if not imminent danger of goods and property?
Another great video on another great topic!
Thanks so much, I really appreciate it! More to come in the near future, stay safe!
Always enjoy your content Cy, top job mate!!!!
Thanks, appreciate it! Lots more on the way, stay tuned and thanks for watching!
3:55, 11:10, I like how the dots are connected.
I really recommend a book about pharaoh Hatshepsut of the 18th dynasty by Kara Cooney. Very accessible. She was one of the few great female rulers of the ancient world and was succeeded by Tuthmose III who lead the Egyptians in the battle of Megiddo.
Great playlist!
Thank you, glad that this was helpful!
An important topic, and very well done.

The philistines are interesting because although we believe them to be of greek origin (probably crete) over time they intermarried with the coastal canaanites eventually adopting there gods and culture before later on being absorbed by Judah.
It's my understanding that the Philistines were never "absorbed," by Judah. They disappeared without trace roughly around the time of the Assyrian conquest of Israel, and most historians assume they were wiped out in the same event.
@@ericspencer8093 They disappeared in 604BCE with the Babylonian conquest.
But, DNA testing shows there was interbreeding going on.
But, they were not absorbed, you are correct.
your videos are pure pleasure
thank you very much and keep going as im sure we all cant wait for the nest videos
Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate it and glad you like the videos. No worries, more are on the way! Thanks again and stay safe!
Absolutely great content and I love your videos. Do you plan on making any videos on the history of the Kingdom of Van/Urartu and their various predecessors (Hayasa-Azzi, Arme-Shupria, Nairi confederations)?
Hi, thanks for stopping by and the kind words. Wow, you must have hacked into my computer because a video on Urartu will be coming out in the next couple of weeks. Right now I'm working on a relatively long video on Assyria and right after that will be one on Urartu. Stay tuned and stay safe!

Thanks so much for the stopping by and the kind words, I really appreciate them! 100k is the goal...getting there slowly but surely thanks to viewers like you! More to come, stay tuned and safe!
Great vid as always
you are really on to something in your presentation of history.
I feel we really need to revisit these histories previously limited to dusty yellow pages written by people trying their best, given limited methods hundreds of years ago in many cases, and also realize how recording of history worked in the past especially before the advent of the printing press.
Most probably some dates and numbers recorded by medieval, classical ancient etc historians are quite off but nonetheless refer to events from differing perspectives or preserved traditions.
But it's crazy how much we CAN reconstruct of the past thousands of years later.
Thanks again for stopping by, always a pleasure to read your insightful comments. Yeah, I agree that precise dates can be problematic and inconsistent, not just in medieval times but even these past few decades. For example, three of the books that I used just for this video had conflicting dates for the reigns of the 19th Dynasty pharaohs (in one case, a difference of a decade). It's also really interesting how different translations of the same text can be different. Still, I'm so grateful to all of the people who put their heart and soul getting this info to us. Even if the dates are off, it still gives us a good framework to work with.
Thanks again for stopping by...more to come soon, stay safe!

Hi, can you make a playlist for your Canaan videos? Greetings from Europe.
Your wish is my command! Just made one, if you click under Playlists, you should see it. Any problems, let me know. Thanks for stopping by, stay safe!
I wonder if the Canaanite ruler shown at 3:05 is the king known in the Bible as Solomon. He is surrounded by Israelite motifs such as doves and pomegranates. Maybe he was so expert at giving peace to Canaan that is rule was remembered.
Great historical teaching! This helps those of the Abrahamic Faith to connect the dots!
I can listen to these forever, can you talk about the ancient israelites from an archaeological and historic viewpoint??
For sure! That's coming up in the next few weeks, tied in with their neighbors and their wars with Assyrian and Babylon. Thanks so much for stopping by, I really appreciate it... stay safe!
Warning. Do not use biblical narratives over factual history.
For instance the captive exile to Babylonia was not real. There was however a migration which was volentary. If you make the bible factual then all of it becomes factual thus making very weird situations.
Example: Joshua coming from Moab and going genocidal in Canaan killing women, children, and prisoners of war ranging from 3.000 to 10.000. The killing of legion size quantities wouldn't go unnoticed in an literary part of the world however there are only bible notes...
@Huey M Hi, hope all is well on your end and thanks for stopping by. I actually don't do that. Everything in the video is based off of archaeology and textual (not religious) sources. If you view this or the other videos in the series, you'll see that I've not used the Bible once as a historical source, I only mention it to relate some of the information to what many in the audience may be familiar with. For example, most people have heard the name Jericho from the Bible, and I may mention that, but when it comes to discussing the history of city, I use archaeological and textual sources, not religious ones. Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks and stay safe!
@@hueym2196 The Babylonian Exile is a historical fact. And there was no "genocide"; that's an anachronistic term that means "race killing"
@@hueym2196 What literary sources from 12th or 11th century BCE Canaan exist in which you'd expect to see these things mentioned? The literary parts of the Eastern Mediterranean suddenly became a lot less literary around this time.
And would you also dismiss the propaganda of other civilizations - particularly Egyptian, Babylonian, and Assyrian - that is the only real literary record we have of most events before the classical era as irrelevant to "factual history"? The simple fact is that no one was writing "factual history" until at least Herodotus, and most of what even he wrote was based on legend, rumor, and myth. (We do also have some diplomatic correspondence, of course, but it is *extremely* fragmentary and only includes a tiny fraction of overall events from the late bronze and early iron ages.) Why are, for example, the king lists of ancient Mesopotamia any more valid historical sources than the Bible? that's not to ay we take those sources at face face value, but they are all valuable evidence.
And what is your "factual" basis for stating that the captive exile to Babylonia was not real? There's plenty of extra-Biblical evidence that it was - most prominently the sharp decline of literacy in Judah at the time, not to mention the complete destruction and disinhabiting of Jerusalem, and the Cyrus cylinder, which, while it doesn't specifically mention Judah or Jerusalem, refers to the Neo-Babylonian practice of involuntarily deporting conquered peoples and Cyrus' policy of allowing them to return to their former homes. If this is something that the Babylonians habitually did, and the returning Judeans say that that was what happened to them, I think the burden of proof lies pretty heavily on anyone claiming to know for a fact that they were lying.
After Canaan can you go onto Phoenicia and then Carthage since they are all successors of each other? Thanks for the video it's almost impossible to find good videos on Canaanites
Absolutely! They're all on the list...hopefully these videos will be out by Fall. Thanks for stopping by and the suggestions, stay safe!
Phoenicia is not successor of Canaan. It was always Canaan. Greeks just renamed the Canaanites Phoenicians because of the purple dye. That's it.
@@crdesigns7322 Ancient Canaan was quite diverse at this point where 6 canaanite languages were spoken.
The Stele does not say ‘Israel’ but rather ‘Is-ri’ So, can the Merneptah Stele be used as a reference source for the history of Ancient Israel? The Minimalist and Maximalist defer greatly on this issue. Merneptah claimed on the Stele that “Is-ri is laid waste, his seed is no more“. Provan, et al argue that an ethnic group (Israel) cannot be lumped together with City-States[5][5] such as Ashkelon and Gezer. Therefore, the Is-ri that Merneptah is referring to cannot be the Israel of the Bible.
Miller and Hayes also seem to agree with this concept ─ that it is difficult to pinpoint the Is-ri of the Stele with the Israel of the Bible. But they acknowledge that it could be an early reference to Israel[6][6].
I agree it's not necessarily Israel, but the writing says isriar, not isri, and they are refered to as a group of people.
Can u do a video about land of punt
Can you incorporate in Canaan (or other) videos something about Moab, Edom, Ammon, Nabatu, Arameans tribes.
And in future Canaanite videos, can you distinguish between archeological facts and biblical history.
Thanks!
Hi, thanks so much for stopping by, I really appreciate it. Sure, I'll do a short video on those kingdoms/states soon. With regard to the videos, they're really all based on archaeology and textual sources. I don't use religious texts as sources, only mention if something appears that people may be familiar with. For example, the term Canaanite, Philistine and Israel appear in the the Bible, which I mention, but I don't use the Bible as a historical source because it was written down many years after the events it describes took place. That's my general approach. Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks and stay safe!

I checked. The Hyksos had had a run at being a line of Pharoes, but this expulsion to Canaan, and Egypt's decision to occupy Canaan thereafter was the result.
It is said the Hyksos were Semitic of sorts ...
Maybe this is how the OT story of Jews escaping Egypt came about.
But the OT timing is way off.
The comments section here really is a thing of beauty. Original content be the spark that ignites a fire
Amarna letters are akkadian influence partially but they are Canaanite styled and influenced mainly and purely.
I swear I was just about to research this period and this video popped up, feeling lucky!!
Hey man, long time no see! Hope you're doing well during these unprecedented times...stay safe my friend!
@@HistorywithCy I am fine. Its very kind of you to ask. I hope you are fine as well
Could you look into the Lydian civilization? It is known as the first Western civilization. It is Turkish and I am half Turkish. It also started, to some extent, thanks to the serious Assyrian interventions and support (for a price ofcourse) I am also half Iraqi so it feels like my parents got married 🤣🤣
we are under siege ,now,Israel needs us now,
Definitely, I'll do one on Lydia, Lycia and a couple other Anatolian kingdoms soon. I also want to do something in more detail on Croesus and Lydia's war with Persia. It'll happen, hopefully sooner than later. Stay tuned and more importantly, stay safe!
Hey, did you mention the dark ages? Or the Dorian invasion or the return of the Haracladai, Weren’t they part of the sea peoples too? Along with some Hittites?
I wonder if abimilku is one of the abimelechs of the old testement
Oh...
Akhenaten did it again!
Ok, let's be serious.
I am really liking this small collection of videos on canaan, and I can't wait for the next one.
I am also realy surprised that the city of Jerico, the oldest city in recorded history, was still standing in those times
It's just insane.
It's also kinda of unfortunate that the city met it's ultimate demise because of an earthquake, rather than because of an enemy army.
I guess that is the reason for the mytholocization of the destruction of the city.
With the whole: "destruction of the walls of Jerico" thing.
I am really looking forward on a video about Jerico, can you tell?
Anyway.
Great video as always.
Can't wait for the next one.
I found out that I forgot to watch your videos about Mesoamerica.
So I'm gonna give them a look today.
I am making a short comic about a maya man for my school.
The videos about mesoamerica are definitively going to help.
👋
Hi, hope that you're doing well in Italy. We're the same here... hopefully this thing is leveling off but they're now saying that it may get worse in summer. Who knows, just got to hang in there. Wow, the comic idea is amazing...I'd love to check it out. I haven't done a video on the Maya yet but that will be my next video on Mesoamerica, hopefully done by the end of this month or early next. If there's anything that I can do to help with regard to sources for artwork, please don't hesitate to ask.
As always, thanks so much for stopping by and please stay safe out there!
@@HistorywithCy
Well.
Thank you.
That would be very helpfull indeed.
I initialy had some problems with my research, since the majority of artists seem more interested in reconstructing the great cities of the classical Mayan period, while my comic is focused on a mayan jungle village in the postcoassical period of mayan history, you know, when the spaniards invaded the remaining maya lands and ended their fragmented civilisation for good.
The comic is a 3 pages short story about a maya village merchants (not a rich man like the merchants of the great cities. All mayans were selfsufficient, and they all selled their products around the country) who is about to reach his home after a long journey
However, while he is remenissing the good times with his friends and family, the story shows a spaniard expediction attacking and pillaging the village.
The story ends with the spaniards shooting the merchant's family with their arquibuges.
The merchant hear the sound of the arquibugues and mistakes it for the sound of lightnings, stopping in his track and wondering if it's about to rain
While smoke is seen emerging from the woods in the last pannel.
(This is a reference on how the mesoamericans confused the sound of the arquibugues with that of lightnings and thunders)
I managed to eventualy find some amazing illustrations of mayan villages and clothing.
I even learned that all Maya settlement had a "world tree" in the center of the city or village.
I am sure that in your next video you'll manage to expose the grandeur and sophistication of this deeply spiritual group of cultures.
And that you will also talk about Tayasal, the last standing city of the Maya lands.
Hopefully you'll also explain why the whole mesoamerican human sacrifice thing is less monstruous than the media loves to show to the pubblic.
What the people do not understand, is that the mesoamericans did not kill without reason.
They only killed their captives of war.
Unlike the old world, were war evolved into blood bath in the battle fields, the mesoamerican warfare evolved in a unique manner.
Instead of killing in the battlefield, they captured the enemies and killed them later.
In this aspect, we can see that their human sacrifices were no different than classic murder in war.
The only difference is that the whites killed the enemy immediately.
While the mesoamericans killed them later.
Not only that.
But this metod of warfare actualy caused way less casualities than the wars in the old world.
Since only a few of the captured enemy soldiers were killed, and the others were left alive.
@@HistorywithCy
If you wanna find more interesting stuff for your next videos, I raccomand the site "mexicolore".
They explain in detail the lifes, beliefs and mindsets of the various cultures of mesoamerica, with an obvious major emphasis on the Aztecs, since they are the ones we know more about

I remember finding Israel Finkelstein's "The Bible Unearthed" within two months of it's publication date of 2002. It was about the only real archaeology book in the archaeology section. Everything else was "Forbidden Archaeology" I went ahead and bought it. I figured if i'm into all knowledge, and archaeology, then why not Biblical Archaeology? Never thought I'd pick up the Bible!
Anyways, what I found was more than just Biblical Archaeology. Lots of good talk about cultures that can switch between hunter/gatherors to agricultural civilizations depending on what worked at a given time, to perhaps Archaeologies greatest mystery - the Bronze age collapse, the Aegean Apocalypse. Whatever you want to call it. Before it was the city of Troy, the Minoans, the Egyptians at the height of their powers. What happened?
Lots of debate! I'm on the side of the iron age weapons. Someone, whether Minoans, Myceneans figured out how to make iron on demand, and made weapons. They then went and raided the old Bronze age civilization. How else does a few "sea peoples" take down the Hittite eimpire, the Minoans, the Myceneans, the Bronze age Mesopotamians. The Egyptians barely held them off due to location. They defeated them in the sea, and had a desert between them and the Levant.
Yep, Eric Cline is the go-to for that
I don’t know if iron is actually that superior to bronze at killing. Iron working overcame bronze working because iron ore is much more common than the ores for bronze, not because you can kill better. Maybe later iron working techniques and refinement became better but at first it probably wasn’t much better than bronze.
@@seanbeadles7421 Maybe they reached a certain stage of maturity about 1200 B.C.
One should keep in mind that this period in Canaan was still very primitive and sparsely populated. The so-called "cities" of Canaan were actually little more than small villages of, at most, a few thousand people. For example, excavations at Megiddo revealed the "royal palace," to be a mere five or six small rooms built of rough stone, surrounded by a cluster of one room hovels. We're not dealing with a grand civilization here.
great clip! shame about the irritating drum tapping that went for way too long ...
Great video cy!
but i have a note about merneptah stele, modern researches proved that the word "israel" was not mentioned but the word is "eseraro/iseraro" so its maybe a reference to some tribe in the jezreel valley in northen canaan, keep up the good work.
Agreed. The hyroglyph is a symbol for tribe not country. History is twisted still to much to fit a bible narrative.
Hi, thanks for stopping by and your comments, I really appreciate them. Yes, I know that hieroglyph is for a people, not a state such as a kingdom. Though I did say "Merneptah, the pharaoh names several peoples..." after the quote I did use the word nation, which some may think to mean a kingdom, though that was not my intention given that I was talking about tribes of displaced peoples. Thanks for bringing it to my attention, I appreciate it. Thanks again and stay safe!
@@HistorywithCy You are correct. A nation are an ethnic people with simular customs and traditions. But most people would confuse it with a nation-state where a plot of land is part of the equetion. One note thou. The word pharaoh is also biblical for the House of the king of Egypt. The king had many titles but none sound remotly like pharaoh. If it was Ramses-phi, the city by Ramses II then the Children of Israel fled from Egypt basicly into Egypt.
In a bit of esoteric knowledge IsRaEl is the cleaning of the mind so to speak. The stories are not meant to be taken real, for the OT then mostly justifies corruption. Even with that the stories are still full of corruptions in esoteric sence. But for the name: Is(Isis-Hathor the physical birth, the morning) Ra (Ra-Hokrakthy the collector of the soul bringing it to enlightenment, the rise and fall, daytime) El (Osiris, El head pantheon Canaan, the end goal of the awakening of the soul, the rebirth, night)
Egypt is the metaphor for igonrance that clouds the mind, corruption, the promised land is the metaphor for a clear mind, enlightenment. The writers of the Tanch did a bad job copying stuf of the Sumerians, Akkadians, Babylonians, Khem, Canaanites, etc. The fragmented parts are for worship of a twisted wargod Haddad in a lunar setting. The NT is bending it back to solarworship with the full esoteric knowledge teachings.
Anyway you do a great job. Just leave out the bibel or at least say it is fictional or something. You are the one bringing out content and that is more then the majority of us here can say. Keep going.
Huey M Israel was not a tribe, but a group of Hebraic tribes who are related.
Huey M what a load of shite and it’s Tanakh not Tanch.
Love it as usual ! But the Battle of Kadesh was in 1274 BC, not 1289 BC (around 7:25) ;-). Hire me as your copy editor ! Just joking.
Hi, thanks for stopping by and your comments, always appreciate them. Yeah, I've seen all sorts of dates for that event... 1289, 1285, 1274, 1275 etc. I used 1289 because it was consistent with the sources on Canaan that I was using. I think the differences come from coinciding the reigns of the two kings involved, Ramesses II and Muwatalli II. Ramesses II had a very long reign while Muwatalli II's was relatively short. Egyptologists and Hittite scholars don't all agree on Muwatalli II's reign (most likely 1295-1272 BC) and exactly where it coincides with that of Ramesses, which I think is where the problem in chronology comes from. 1274 BC works for me as well.
Thanks again for stopping by, appreciate your comments and love hearing your thoughts/views and learning from them. Stay safe!

Sort of but not really. Born in US but lived in several countries as a youth. Thanks for stopping by, appreciate it!
History with Cy That makes sense. Some of the ways you pronounce some words, like “cunieform” and “archaeological”, sound like someone who learned English based on standand phonetic rules despite English not being a strictly phonetic language given its many borrowed words from other languages.
In any event, you present great content. Keep it coming!
Well done! Could, then, the biblical account "exodus" be nothing else but a memory of Egyptian rule over them? I. E., it wasn't an exodus of the Israelites out of Egypt, rather an exit of the Egyptians out of Canaan?
Jesus: I believe that the Hyksos included Pharaoh, whom God mentioned in the heavenly books
So palestines are the sea people from north ? from balkan ?
The Hykso's brought the horse, chariot, bronze weapons and more to Egypt. It obviously was not they're neighbors, but someone from more Anatolia/Black Sea area. The horse and chariot are an IndoEuropean thing.
Yeah a lot of people believe that the Hyksos got it from the Hurrian-speaking peoples of what's today northern Syria/Iraq and southwestern Anatolia. It makes sense because there had been a lot of contact between the peoples of Canaan and Hurrians, let alone other peoples, before the Egyptians got there. By that time though, Chariots had become part of the armed forces in Babylonia and Assyria too. Thanks again for stopping by, I really appreciate it...more to come soon, stay safe!
Hyksos are Canaanites not hurrians and NOT jews/hebrews either of way way later and outside.
They spoke a Semitic language though and there's ample evidence of their Canaanite origins.

People who get too deep into the bible should listen to these videos. Humanizes many of the people treated as "gods" in literature. Which helps to realize much of all of those stories are just astrological allegories
You hear much of the same harsh talk in these old stories as you do the bible. Thus you realize like a movie or any other book it is used to create fear.

appreciate your teaching on this....id like more on the israel conquest!
The Israel conquest is a myth. read the Bible for that one.
Hmmm, I don't know about the Biblical story, but I will be doing something on the early kingdoms of Israel and Judah and the wars with Assyria and Babylonia in the not-too-distant future. Thanks again for stopping by, I really appreciate it...stay safe!
The more acheologists dig in Canaan the more comfirmation that the bible is fiction.
But if the conquest was real for arguments sake. After that conquest Solomon was according to the bible the richest king in the world (god did not knew about Mayans and pre-colombian cultures etc). He had 99 wives. He constructed the temple (measurements fit Karnak temple) and filled with gold and linnen with a 24 hour sacrifice industry of burn, peace, sin, etc. offerings of bulls and pidgeons preverrably. Yet there are zero mentions by the Assyrians, Hittites, and Khem which traded with the Children of Israel.
Go Beiruta!
Yes, hope everyone there is safe! Thanks for stopping by, appreciate it!
Mitanni were Indo-Iranian not hurrian (atleast the ruling class).
Yes, the ruling perhaps due to their names and the presence of some Indo-European deities in treaties, but the people were majority Hurrian-speaking, which why they're generally called the "Hurrian Kingdom of the Mitanni." Thanks for stopping by, really appreciate it...stay safe!
A little softer tone like the guy who does Historytime would probably increase your subscribers. Some people like me use these history videos to calm the mind in preparation for sleep.
Yeah been working on my voice and I think you'll notice a change in the more recent videos, especially the last one on Babylonia. Thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it and I love History Time - was one of my greatest inspirations when creating this channel. Thanks for watching!

Sure thing. And I have taken notice of what you’re saying in other videos. You do excellent work and reveal things that big media like history channel doesn’t. I keep up with the war in Ukraine and certain NATO allies like Germany frustrate me so these videos on ancient history is very calming.
hi caption please And let me know when you have it working and I will come back to watch thank you :-)
For sure, thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate it! Stay safe!
@@HistorywithCy hi guy thank you for you're reply and I'm back to watch thank you and thank you for the caption well you have very good night now to watch I love you're channel I like how you present history always interesting thank you :-)
Man ,your content is okay,,,but the music is daamnrn loud and your voice is competing with the music,.,.so it's kinda hard to focus
Abi-milku
And that map at the end should be the solution for dividing Israel today. Palestinians take Philistine, Israel takes its original position and Jerusalem/Judah becomes a separate independent state, New Judah.
So where does this leave the Jewish exsdous???
Stay safe? Safe from what?
all does nations that in the end.. i think does are tribes of hebrews... judea and israel are part of them also israel and judea are kindoms made by hebrews tribes after many of the people wanted to get close to the global world... who was all about kindoms and kings...
Man I really think some Hyksos we're Israelites
Israel your take on Israel History is flawed .....🤷🏽♂️
Hi, thanks so much for stopping by. Sorry to hear that but could you please explain as to why you think this take on history is flawed...thanks.
What would Pharaoh care for a random band of Nomads like Israel? Thats pretty sus...
And many more that my tribe accent is not like people in the country. Sorry. The bad guys who killed our tribe, betrayal. Pleased to create IO, AI. Everything is revealed. Ilon Mak warns. Don't hurry to build Hahaha. Hmm! Coincidentally, I have the same surname as God. Confused with the round world.
Exodus never happened
True, if you notice Cy does not mention it but in passing on the previous Canaan video.
Jebusalem, was the city of the Jebusites David attaked and apparently destroyed ,and this all for no acceptable raison.
Since Jebusalem is the city in which our King and Saviour Jesus Christ was crucified without a process, and anew without any acceptable raison, Jerusalem should now be renamed as JESURALEM by the acclamation of the whole Christianity....
Awesome video, thank u. So Israel's existence is documented before the arrival of the Philistines and no mention of anything called "Palestine" hmm.... 🤔 it's almost like Israel actually belongs right where they are 😂
Well, the culture that was «Israel» that time was probably not similar to todays culture, and the culture of the Philistines were totally erased, and so has nothing to do with todays «Palestinians» except the name it self.
And anyhow, the way we define rights to land in our modern society does not take into account a culture that was there 3000 years ago, only the cultures present at the time that state borders were defined.
And at that time, during the colonial occupation of the British, there was muslims, jews and christians there.
@MrKn0w17A11 your response kinda reads like you're arguing against what I said, but I can't really tell what your counterpoint would be. Do you have a bottom line? Are you saying Isreal doesn't have a right to exist right where they are?
Let me get you right.
Canaan son of HAM.
Ham son of NOAH.
Africas real name is HAM after NOAHS son HAM.
HAMMITES are THE AFRICANS.
They are all BLACK.
Incorrect. The Hebrews came from Abraham who came from Ur. Ur being a Sumerian city. The Sumerians are Semitic. So the Hebrews are Semitic. NOT black!
PackHunter117 you’re correct. Ur in modern day Iraq. DNA from ancient and current Jewish population, language, and religious cult also supports this.
@@PackHunter117 The Sumerians were not a semitic people. Their language is an isolate, meaning it has no known connection to any other languages we know of, including any semitic languages. And frankly as someone who is learning to read both Sumerian and Akkadian (Akkadian being the semitic language of the Babylonians and Assyrians) I can tell you they are really nothing alike in just about every way imaginable (both in grammar and vocabulary, for example there are virtually zero Sumerian-Akkadian cognates, save one or two lone words from Sumerian)
By your logic the Hebrews have non semitic origins, due to having Sumerian ancestry.
I should probably point out that there were multiple cities in northern Iraq that went by the name "Ur", and whose population did speak a semitic language, and were semitic.
What does Ham's genealogy got to do with anything in the video???
Ian Abrams Absolutely nothing since the Canaanites are descendants of Shem not Ham
