Presenter talking about curses reminded me of David's warning to Solomon about Shimei who had pronounced a curse on David. David told him to let him go down to sheol in blood. When David died Solomon told Shemei not to leave Jerusalem and his life would be spared. When Shimei left to get his slaves who had run away Solomon handled his business and had Shemei killed. Ancient cultures did not play and blood libel was for real.
Very interesting. The question that came to mind after viewing this was this: Is there a story or an event in the surviving religious texts (Tanach, Old Testament) that corresponds to the Merneptah conquest referred to in the stele?
Not really. It happens roughly around the time of the battle of Deborah against the Canaanites, and some have tried to see this as a reflection of the Merneptah event. But I and most others are not convinced by the interpretation.
Ken Nicholson You have to sign up for the course to see them. It's free. But you have to enroll, because the videos are not public. www.coursera.org/course/biblefuture
Ken Nicholson Whether or not you have time to participate in the course in a timely fashion, videos for Coursera courses are often available for longer times than the course actually runs, so you could go back a bit later to view them. You can elect to take a course for a certificate or just for personal study, as I do. I highly recommend you enroll.
My only real problem with this is that corn was not indigenous to any part of that area so I don't know where you're getting the word for corn and I don't think it should be used I think if it's referring to a particular kind of seed it should be its specific kind of seed that way we maintain accuracy
In English texts the word corn is often used to mean wheat and corn was called Indian corn (i.e. Native American corn) after the English came to America.
"Town majors?" (3:55) You have got to be kidding me! How did Emory figure the best translation for 'client king in a Canaanite city state' is town major?
No you need to show and prove that the mention of these nomads are specifically talking about Israelites of the bible. Otherwise that is a false dichotomy.
For your consideration from the Annals of Human Genetics, Volume 70, Issue 2, March 2006, Pages 195-206; Mitochondrial DNA Diversity in the Polish Roma The last sentence of this abstract describes three alleles in Haplogroup K common and specific to both Roma (gypsies) and Ashkenazi Jews, two groups that did not and do not intermarry. The presence of those three alleles in these two founder groups must then necessarily be ancestral. Roma has bee identified as an Indo-Aryan language, which is confirmed by the identical geometries of the Hindu Star of Goloka (Satkona) and the Jewish Star of David. There are still a group of Jews living in India who call themselves the Bene Israel (Bene being rather a perversion of the Hebrew word B'nai (children) and this group receives a mention in the Qu'ranic sura titled, "The Children of Israel". The current theory in anthropology is that Jews migrated into India from Iran, Iraq and the Russian Caucasus; however, what if this is in error and these ancient people were the Aryans of old who left India following the cataclysmic Thera eruption to take advantage of the regional chaos that ensued in the aftermath? It should be noted that any sort of invading army mentioned in the Merneptah stele would have walked to Canaan since the oldest horse breed in Israel was only invented in 1948 and that animal is a mix of local Arabians and British warmbloods brought to Palestine during the years of the Mandate.

Silly blunder: Libya is of course found to the west, not the south, of Egypt.

No mention of an Exodus, no mention of parting the red sea, no other mentions of these "Israelite nomads"???
