The end cards of these videos kill me every time. Incredibly underrated channel. The UA-cam algorithm is really dropping the ball here. Only 1.05K subs is spectacularly unjust for the quality and effort put into these videos.
One question: In the Bible is written that Canaan was the son of Ham, son of Noah. How come the Canaanites were semites, descendants of Shem, another son of Noah?
Sorry I missed this question. Basically, the author of Genesis 10 wanted to maintain a strong distinction between the nations of "Canaan" (the competitors of Israel when it came to controlling Palestine) and Israel, so they lumped Canaan with Egypt. Depending on when it was written there might have been other political concerns involved as well. Genesis 10 suggests that the Judaean elite, at the time of writing, are aligned with the Arameans (Syrians/Seleucids), Assyrians, and other Mesopotamian groups in opposition to the Egyptian sphere of influence (Egypt, Phoenicia, Philistia, Nubia), with the Greek world (Japheth) a neutral third party. Genealogies in the Bible aren't necessarily based on heredity and actual family relationships. They're more a reflection of the author's contemporary ethnic and political worldview.
*He Who Rides On The Clouds 🌥:* Baal is a western Semitic title that means Master or Lord. While it can actually refer to a large number of different deities, Baal in this case refers to *Hadad,* the Canaanite and Syrian god of rain, fertility, life, agriculture and thunder, particularly popular in *Ugarit and Aleppo.* He was worshipped in many ancient Middle Eastern communities, who considered him one of the most important gods in their respective local pantheons. He was at least in part derived from the Sumerian god Ishkur, but their character differed substantially; while Ishkur represented the destructive power of storms, the western Semitic Baal was the master of *life-giving rains vital for farmers.* Thanks to his huge influence, Baal was designated as the universal god of fertility, and in that capacity his title was Prince, Lord of the Earth. He was also called the Lord of Rain and Dew, the two forms of moisture that were indispensable for fertile soil in Canaan In Ugaritic and Hebrew, Baal's epithet as the storm god was *He Who Rides on the Clouds.* In the Baal (Lord) Cycle he's frequently called "Aliyan Baal" or "Baal, the victorious." In Phoenicia, he was called Baal Shamen, Lord of the Heavens. In Syria, hail was seen as a phenomenon closely related to him. He was also the king of the gods, and, to achieve that position, he was portrayed as seizing the divine kingship from *Yam (or Yaw "YHW"), the sea god, described as a tyrannical ruler.* Baal was probably also regarded as the *source of royal authority for human kings*, and myths and prayers depict him as an *ally and protector of humans.* In his main myth, the so-called Baal Cycle, Baal was locked in mortal combat with Mot, the personification of death and sterility. If Baal triumphed, humanity would thrive; but, if he were to be vanquished by Mot, humans would suffer and their crops would wither away. While the myths present a decisive conclusion to the conflict, some scholars assume it was believed to repeat in cycles. Like many deities of the ancient Near East, Hadad was always represented in a horned headdress. In art, he's often shown holding a club and thunderbolt or two clubs. While Mesopotamian depictions of the storm god and the famous Baal stele depict him as a typical bearded Near Eastern god, many Canaanite depictions are instead more similar to Egyptian warrior gods and beardless. Baal was also frequently associated with bulls. The bull was a widespread symbol of divinity in ancient Mesopotamia and areas infuenced by it. Other storm gods from cultures closely related to that of ancient Canaan, like Hurrian Teshub and Hittite Tarhunna, were depicted very similarly to Baal in art, and their myths shared many similarities as well. The Egyptian god Set in his generally positive aspect as a god of foreigners was also associated with Baal, taking his role in the Egyptian adaptation of the Yam (Yaw) narrative. Baal is usually associated with the goddesses Ashtart (commonly called "the Face of Baal," indicating particularly close bond between these two deities), a western Semitic equivalent of Ishtar, and Anat, both of who are often interpreted as his consorts. Anat is also called Baal's sister, though it's unclear if they share the exact same parents, as in Ugaritic texts Baal calls two separate gods, El (the husband of Asherah) and Dagan, his fathers. Whether the two fathers were one and the same or if one of these was simply a courtesy title indicating superior status is a matter of scholarly debate, though cultic rather than mythical texts regard Dagan as separate from El. The name Baal, or Ba'al, is used as a substitute of Hadad in some ancient texts and in common modern usage. This is possibly derived from the fact that in ancient Canaan only priests were allowed to utter the divine name, in much the same way as in Judaism where only priests were allowed to utter the name of God, so common people simply referred to him as Baal. It's also possible the title was eventually deemed to be integral to Hadad's cult it functionally became his main name. The word ba'al and its plural form were also used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to cult images, and in this context they were regarded as false gods. *Because of this, several demons were derived from Baal, including Bael and Beelzebub.* Many of the most famous biblical references to Baal, for example the tale of *Jezebel, are related to the traditions of the cities of Sidon and Tyre,* where the title of Baal was applied to *deities other than Hadad.* (Neither Elijah nor Jezebel were good for Israel 🇮🇱 in this story)
Great Great Great Production! It's as though I'm threading this together with my own research and materials, though it's all mostly new and very informative to me. ❤️🌎🙏🏻
Always liked the idea that it came from 'kinahhu', the Hurrian word for 'purple'. Purple dye was a major export of Canaan. I also like the idea that there was a strong Hurrian ancestry in Canaan, as suggested by DNA originating in the chalcolithic Zagros and Bronze age Caucasus appearing in Canaan from 2500 BCE to 1000 BCE.
Thanks for the comment. I like the 'purple' idea too, but the more recent scholarship says a connection is unlikely, so I didn't bring it up. I didn't know about the DNA thing.
Wow! Endlich mal eine aufschlussreiche Sendung zu den Kanaanitern und deren wahren historischen Hintergrund. Die biblische Polemik und Apologetik springen ja sofort ins Auge, dass da etwas nicht stimmen kann. Danke für diese tolle Aufklärung.
Hi Richard, thanks for the comment. What I mean is that the Deuteronomistic History (the books of Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, Samuel, and Kings) in its canonical form tells a continuous story that ends with the fall of Samaria and Judah and the exile, so it’s looking back at those events in the past, and its theology is highly concerned with the loss of homeland as the result of sinning against Yahweh. The speech of Moses in Deut. 29-30 is particularly concerned with the fall of Jerusalem and exile (a future event within the narrative, but a past event from the author’s perspective). Scholars generally see the Tetrateuch (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers) as even later than Deuteronomy. The priestly source in particular treats Judaism as an exilic or post-exilic religion overseen by classes of priests instead of by a monarchy. It’s a topic much too vast for a UA-cam comment, but there are many more reasons to date the Pentateuch and DH to exilic or post-exilic times in their final form.
Much of what he says is baseless assumptions and hypotheses. If you need context for reading your Bible you need to read the academic work yourself, don’t trust a UA-cam video.
@@redrkstone Thx brother. I understand what you're saying. Are you a devout Christian? Are you in the middle? Do you have a background in theology? I'd like to know more.
I heartily encourage everyone who wants to know more to read the original sources, which I list in the description. The ones by Mary Buck, Israel Finkelstein, Donald Redford, and Seth Sanders are especially useful. "Baseless assumptions" is a bit unkind. I can show you solid academic sources for every element of my video.
I just found you, this is very good, congrats. I just wish that it would be more paced (slow) because there is a lot of info and it's hard to assimilate, I just can not read that fast.
Excellent video! I do feel like the Canaanites did express their literary culture, we just lost their writing to History. There are a ton of cultures throughout the Bronze Age Near East, that lost their writing, such as the Kingdom of Mitanni. Archaeology is very selective in what it preserves (especially writing objects), but thats my perspective. But good job its a great video!
I mean, if you consider the fact that hebrews/israelites/judeans are canaanite peoples, the best selling book in the world, the Bible, is kind of their literary culture.
There are writings of the war of kadesh The south was an Egyptian colony The north a hiites one The ones that created Judea were from Egypt The akenaton people They let them live there
Professor Israel Finkelstein, an Israeli archaeologist, thinks that the Jews were in fact Canaanites living in the plateaus around Jerusalem who had abandoned their religion to worship a single god Yahve!
No. Hebrews wrote the Bible with bias, Enslavement, and entitlement in mind. Canaan is the son of Ham, or extension. Now, why in the hell would Hebrews curse themselves into eternal slavery?? Do some research on Ham and Kamose and Ahmose I who had to force the foreigners out (Hyksos) and why. We are seeing some of the issues in real time today. Same “land without a people”
Read your history! The “jews” are exiled Babylonians .. one of their kings is literally named gudea.. they mixed with cannanites and Egyptians and Ethiopians and Scythians .. Abraham came from Ur. In Iraq which is Babylon /sumer .. it seems the original Babylonians are depicted with black hair and blue eyes be there later Carthaginians.. we’re as cannanite /phonecians tend to have red hair at times … I think they are proto Celtic/semetic and mixed with aryans/asians/egyptians/some African
Isra-El, Samu-EL, Jo-EL, Mica-EL Dani-EL I would wonder why the names of the prophets ended in EL. I understand the close connection now between the Israelites and the Canaanites.
“But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”” Joshua 24:15 NIV
It's basically the other way around. Some Canaanite tribes/kingdoms became "Jewish" when they adopted the god Yahweh during the Iron Age. There's some evidence that Yahweh was worshiped first by tribes in Edom to the south, and then was adopted by Israel (the northern kingdom) and Judah. Association with a particular god became an important part of nation-building, so the Moabites starting with king Mesha (probably) began identifying Chemosh as their national God, even though they worshiped many gods just as the Jews continued to do until much later.
Indeed! And there's an old hypothesis called the Midianite Hypothesis that says Yahweh was first worshiped by the Midianites and other people in southern Canaan before Israel adopted him as their god.
References at timestamp 12:36 are incorrect. Isaiah 29:46 doesn’t exist… & Every translation of the Bible has psalms 132:1-2 reading as the “mighty one of Jacob” NOT “bull of Jacob”…
Yeah, that was a typo that made it through. The correct reference is Isaiah 49:26. Regarding the Bull of Jacob, the citations shown on the right explain why that is likely the correct reading. (I am reliant on Hebrew experts here, but it is a widely held view.) The original unpointed Hebrew on its own is ambiguous and can be read either way. English translations usually follow the Masoretic pointing, which was introduced much later. I give a bit more of an explanation in my video on the golden calf: ua-cam.com/video/uixZFHPZ0oo/v-deo.html
One question: In the Bible is written that Canaan was the son of Ham, son of Noah. How come the Canaanites were semites, descendants of Shem, another son of Noah?
The genealogies and the Table of Nations are less about describing historical ethnic descent and more about describing relationships in the author’s own day and the self-image of the Judaeans/Israelites in relation to surrounding nations. Canaan was lumped with Egypt, Nubia, and Libya either to put cultural distance between Israel and its perceived enemy, or because there was still plentiful cultural influence from Egypt in Palestine whenever Genesis 10 was composed. Israel is made a cousin of the Assyrians, Arameans, and (probably) Babylonians, which is reinforced in the patriarchal narratives through stories about Abraham the Babylonian and Laban the Aramean. This perspective makes a lot of sense particularly if these traditions came from Judaeans living in Babylon who no longer saw the existing inhabitants of Palestine as true Jews.
Why are you constantly showing these white images of the Canaanites? Genesis 46:31 -> And Joseph said unto his brethren, and unto his father’s house, I will go up, and shew Pharaoh, and say unto him, My brethren, and my father’s house, which were in the land of Canaan, are come unto me; They are living among black people the HAMITES, Canaan was the son of HAM. Genesis 10:6 -> And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan. The whitewashing is unreal. . .
Thanks for the comment. The great majority of Bible art available to me online, both modern and historical, was produced by Eurocentric artists and painters who tend to depict Bible people and places in terms that are familiar to them, not only in terms of skin tone but also clothing, architecture, etc. I try to avoid the worst, but the history of religious art is still interesting in reflecting how each generation reinterprets the Bible and its stories.
Canaan mixed his seed with the fallen angels creating the nephyllim Rephaim etc (giants) therefore loosing their melanin. Canaanites ARE Caucasian/Asians. They are the seed of Satan read Enoch, genesis 6 etc. the seed was f the fallen
The Canaanites and Phoenicians (Sidon) are the same people. You are confusing your viewers by using Phoenicians and Canaanites in the same sentence. The word Phoenician is not mentioned in the Bible. It is the Greek work for Sidon.
Thanks for the comment. I did try to make it clear later in the video that after the Bronze Age, the label "Canaanite" is primarily used for the Phoenicians, particularly by the Greeks.
His name is not el it is Yahweh. el is a generic term just meaning god, just because they used that term doesn’t mean Yahweh is a Canaanite god. Yahweh has clear characteristics that are different from any other god, such as the fact that he claims to be the only true God. The Israelites did worship other canaanite gods but this was in defiance of the Torah and those are not the gods of Israel.
Abrahams God is El Elyon a domestic God. Yahweh is the god of the nomadic people the Shasu who Moses converted to in the desert. When the Israelites were exiled they taught them survival skills. Moses could not convince the Jews to give up their beloved stories from Genesis and so said they are the same God. The brutal God of the wilderness Yahweh and the domestic God El Elyon. That is why reading the Old Testament can be so shocking. One minute the violent God of war is vowing to reduce his enemies with such hate that they will be forced to consume their children, then a few pages later we are told the Lord is wise and compassionate ( El Elyon). This hybrid God has become the most worshipped Deity on earth. The Shasu didn't survive to see their triumph.
to far from right. Can not agree with this video sorry Canaanites were called Phoenicians by the Greeks Phoenicians were all over the mediterranean later became known as the Hebrews but originally a Hebrew was a Fire Priest
The book of Deuteronomy explains that because the true Israelites lived in Cannan after Moses and became disobedient to Gods word and became slaves all over the world mainly the Americas
You have some false logic: just because Egyptians considered Israelites as Canaaneans, you expect them to be right. But Abraham and family, though living in Canaan, are said to be different according to the bible. Also, Abraham is supposed to have been very successful and loved in preaching his religion. Your anti bible bias is trying to prove the bible wrong but you also could have proven the bible right with the same fact. Intention is all that matters
Julien, my video does not mention Abraham, so it's not clear what you disagree with me about. I am simply presenting the findings of mainstream archaeology.
When the anunnaki arrived the only city within the Middle East was Canaan , the Elohim anunnaki were going to ethnically cleanse the entire city however some of pure genes were saved to begin again. This is how the Gods changed. This why they were taught to forget
Saint Louis ship: 900 jews freed by the Nazis in a ship, The Captain called many countries in South, Central and North America to accept them and all refused.. Later the British government brought them to Palestine... Many people are dying...
Your conclusions are based off biased assumptions, not what’s written in archeology. The archeology does not contradict the Bible’s records. They actually don’t provide conclusions on their own. Now if we’re to add to this discussion the fields of tradition and mythos… a very different conclusion is made than the one your video presents.
The sources are in the description, and I can provide many, many more. If you disagree with any specific item and have an academic source that supports an alternative view, you're welcome to post it here and I'll have a look.
@@InquisitiveBible Your sources are fine, they do great work in analysis. The problem is none of them provide explicit proof for the narrative you’re presenting: that the biblical authors are fabricating lies about what literally happened If you have any real evidence that proves it, you’re welcome to present it and we’ll all be sure to look it over
@@InquisitiveBible Not what I disputed- your sources are fine, they do excellent analyses. The problem is _none of them_ provide proof for the narrative you’re pushing: the one about how biblical authors conspired and lied about public history If you have any evidence for this, you’re free to present it and we’ll be sure to look it over.
Good research, but why in the world would you use the Google name of God that is fairly recent in time just a few hundred years old and from only ONE source, rather that the proven “HEBREW” name of God (El) found in THOUSANDS of HEBREW, not Greek ancient manuscripts. 😢. What name do you find in the most ancient and accepted accurate HEBREW codex’s? Instead of a single non-Hebrew source, try researching the 2,000+ Ancient Hebrew codexes such as the Aleppo, and Leningrad codexes? Other than that, good research.
Thanks for the comment, Robert. I don't quite understand your point about the name. In the Hebrew Bible, God is either referred to as YHWH or as El and its derivatives (Elohim, Eloah, Elyon, etc.). It's the latter name that I'm mostly interested here in connection with Canaanite culture.
@@InquisitiveBible I’m sorry I should have been more specific; in the oldest trusted Aleppo Hebrew Masoretes codex where the scibes by accident used All Three vowel pointers Pronouncing Yehovah Seven Times. Yeshua’s name is taken from Yehovah, meaning Yehovah’s salvation. You will find this in the second most trusted ancient Hebrew codex; the Leningrad, also pronounced as Yehovah. The seven occurrences in the Aleppo are: Ezekiel 3:12, Samuel 15:1 (folio 44v), and to be brief also in the Leningrad Bible dated at 1008CE; Leviticus 25:17. There are many more including also the KJV that has it 7 times (not that I rely on KJV), but certainly more than German popularized Yahweh. That is not even Hebrew, but instead points back to the god of Jupiter 😬. I put quite a bit of this at www.2theway.org
Not ONE SINGLE "Hebrew" source/codex of the Bible will you be able to find the Greek/German Yahweh pronunciation, however you will find the pronunciation used at the time of Yeshua/Jesus in over 2,000 HEBREW codex's and bibles. You'll even find it in the 1st 1611 KJB, the current ASV and several others. Don't go with the uninformed mainstream Google group, look to HEBREW sources if you care to actually know the best pronunciation of the most high's name given in Ex 3:14&15. You'll also find it in the very most important MAIN codex's for bible translations,- the Aleppo and Leningrad code's. God placed His personal name nearly 7,000 in His scriptures of old, we should do our very best to honor what He truly honors,- His own unique name YEHOVAH! @@InquisitiveBible
Egyptologist Donald Redford argues that conquest of Egypt by the Hyksos involved significant destruction (for which there is archaeological evidence) and was not a peaceful takeover. The Hyksos were Asiatics of unknown origin, but they were almost certainly from the Levant, and there are some material remains suggesting Phoenicia or northern Canaan. (Source: Redford. Egypt, Canaan, and Israel in Ancient Times. 1992. Especially pages 100 and following.)
Canaan was Levant, not Arab. Arabs are from the Arabian peninsula and colonised the Levant, west Asia, central Asia, North Africa. Stop be proud of colonizing others.
Scott, as I hope the title and introduction make clear, this video is about describing the Canaanites as they appear in the archaeological and historical record, and then comparing that to the Bible's use of the term 'Canaanite'. The sources provided in the description are all peer-reviewed papers and books by experts in the field. If there's anything specific you disagree with, feel free to provide more detail.
I don’t like how you frame this, @InquisitiveBible : your conclusions are based off biased assumptions, not what’s written in archeology. The archeology does not contradict the Bible’s records. They actually don’t provide conclusions on their own. Now if we’re to add to this discussion the fields of tradition and mythos… a very different conclusion is made than the one your video presents.
Abram waa a Chaldean from Ur, he betrothed his first cousin, Sarai and with a few more Ivries ( sons of Eber) left the land of Ur, north of later what would be known as Babylon, after the fall of Nimrod ( in the land of Shinar). The early Hebrews ( having crossed over from pagan idol worship , such as Abram's father and whole existing culture, and made their way through the valley's and fields of the land of already existing Canaan ( named so, due to the seizing of land inherited to Shem, son of Noah, not Keenan, who illegally seized the land belonging to Shem. After years of idol worship to the gods Baal, Moluch, Ishtar, Ashara, and Talmuz, they were sacrificing children, to their gods in bloodied altars near the Mount Hermon where the fallen angels made a pact before the great flood. This all took place witt the ancestors of these abominations, the Rafaim. They were still giants, but not as large as the Nephilim of Antedeluvian scale. After Abram, who was given Abraham by YHWH, not YahWeh, but the true name YAHUAH, the one ELOHIM, the most high. Abraham was given Goshen , a most fertile land by the Nile delta, by the Pharoah. Later after many years, the new Assyrian Pharoah did not remember the pact made to Abraham and took his descendents as indentured slaves and servants, until eventually Moses came back to become reacquainted with Aaron his estranged brother, and we all know what happened as a result of the Ramses Pharoah ..when they re-entered Canaan, the multi nation Canaanites, the Amarites, Jezubites, and Perizites, etc, were taken down by Joshua and his armies witg the help of YAH, and the constant presence of the Ark of the Covenant. The rest is history. Some Hebrew tribes that were allotted land in Canaan, stayed clear of intermarriage with Canaanite women, some disobeyed, some forgot who to worship based on Torah laws not pagan sacrifices and abominations. Maybe that us why mention of the details of their incredibly wicked societies wasn't worth giving details other than Og of Gog. There has been a plaque hammered out by Joshua after making an offering of his seizing Jericho, that they were cursed cursed by YAHUAH forever for their atrocities and child sacrifices. Your history doesn't even touch on those chronicles does it?
Canaanites came from Ham and Ham committed sexual sin with his Father Noah (Gen 9:22), and the curse was laid upon Canaan the son of Ham for his sinful act.
Canaan = Scorpio. The Canaanites/Philistines are the five signs found in Revelation 9.5. The scorpion (Scorpio constellation) is the leader of Sagittarius thru Pisces. These five signs make up the body of Jesus (as the winter sun). The winter season was a period of hunger, sickness, cold, rain, slavery, and death where it was important that the crops saved from summer were to be shared with all. Craig is pushing for the killing of Jesus (as the winter sun) who called for this sharing of the crops. This is explained in Matthew 25:35-40 ...... for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’ “Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’ How does this compare to the “Christians” who support the murder of the Palestinians and theft of their homes?
Thanks for the comment. In political terms, the kingdom of Samaria (=Israel) was a separate entity from Phoenicia, but the biblical picture of Israel extends further to include what were probably Phoenician lands, particularly in the case of northern tribes like Zebulon and Naphtali where all the epigraphic finds are apparently in Phoenician rather than Hebrew.
Did you just make up your own Bible verses?? Lol where is Isaiah 29:46? And Pslams 132:1-2 says Might one or "Abir" of Jacob ...that does not mean bull, parim or par is bull in Hebrew. Bunch of hot steam from this channel...going no where.
Michael, thanks for the comment. I provide a fuller explanation of “bull of Jacob” in my Golden Calf video. This link includes the exact timestamp: ua-cam.com/video/uixZFHPZ0oo/v-deo.htmlsi=8rLbEUyvHWI2ALXm&t=367 What the scholars I have consulted believe is that the Masoretic text has been mispointed. The unpointed Hebrew of the original manuscripts can just as easily be read ‘abbir ya’aqob, “bull of Jacob”. John Day considers this the correct reading, and Chaim Cohen makes a case for this reading on linguistic grounds in his 2015 paper “The BH-Akk. Simile … in the Speech of the Assyrian King”. > Bunch of hot steam from this channel...going no where. A little civility wouldn't kill you.
@@InquisitiveBible I can't find a single reputable Hebrew scholar that says Abbir means bull. It most overwhelmingly means Strong/ mighty (in Assyrian), Winged (Hebrew), or Strong Aroma (in Arabic)....all such semetic roots pointing towards a name meaning an Angel which we know to be mighty if the Lord uses it. What's more there are at least 3 Hebrew words that mean Bull that are used over 150 times in the Bible. And you think the writer forgot all of those words and used a obscure unused word to say Bull.... com'on let's be serious...is this channel just for your cognitive dissonance....seems hot and steamy to me. Keep it to yourself.
Check The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew (1993), which I believe is the standard Hebrew dictionary for academic work. Volume 1 (Aleph), page 106. It's the second definition under the entry for abbir. 2. mighty animal. a. bull, Is 10:13, 34:7, Jr 46:15, Ps 22:13, 50:13, 68:31, Si 7:31 This is followed by a long list of contextual examples, many of which have the meaning "bull". The reading "bull of Jacob" is accepted, in addition to the aforementioned John Day and Chaim Cohen, by Rainer Albertz (A History of Israelite Religion in the Old Testament, 1994, p. 309), Ralph Klein ("The 'Sin' of Jeroboam", 2018), and too many others to bother naming.
@@InquisitiveBible listen and I will teach you of understanding....just because a word has a secondary association doesn't mean that association is the appropriate or necessary translated word in the context . Let's look at Isaiah 10:13 as you referenced. Isa 10:13: "For he saith, By the strength [coach] of my hand.." That verse contains the word "Coach" which could mean reptile (secondary association) or it could just mean the primary definition of "strength" as is often the literary style of Hebrew to call to attention a literal thing as to make a metaphor to describe a characteristic of completely different object, not to be taken literally. If God wanted to refer to a reptile literally he could have used any of the following word, לטאה, just like if he meant to say bull he would have used any of the words that are known to have a primary stable definition for Bull: פּר, בּקר, etc. Or do you present that Isiah 10:13 is supposed to read according to your style: Isa 10:13: "For he saith, By the [reptile] of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom;... So is God saying He is a reptile or is he making a metaphor as to the swift, decisive, and unchanging plan of his action (like a reptile). Would we go on to Call God the Reptile of Jacob? If we continue in Isaiah 10: for I am prudent: and I have removed the bounds of the people, and have robbed their treasures, and I have put down the dwellings/inhabitants like a [bull]" Here God is using a smile obviously because he uses the prefix "כ" before the Abir. Which means "like". So "like a bull" at most but better "like a mighty man". We know that Abir is an ancient poetic name for God. Not meant to say God is a bull. Just as we know God is called a mighty man of war. Is God a man? That's a much more interesting question. If you think God can be a bull surely you think God can be a man? Another example...Do you understand the history of the word susi? one of its secondary meanings is horse, but that is not what Susi means primarily. If You were to translate every incident of susi as horse you would have a very confusing time.
Israel's Polytheistic Background and the Ugaritic Texts Is Yahwism (J source) and Leviathan/Lotan (P source) in the Ugaritic texts? In 1 Kings 22:19-22 we read of Yahweh meeting with his heavenly council. This is the very description of heaven which one finds in the Ugaritic texts. For in those texts the *sons of god* are the *Sons of El.* Other deities worshipped at Ugarit were *El Shaddai, El Elyon, and El Berith.* Yam, also known as Yaw (YHW from Mt Ebal curse tablet; oldest Yahweh inscription ever found), is the Ugaritic god of rivers and the sea. Also known as Judge Nahar ("Judge River"), he is also one of the *Elohim* or *sons of El,* the name given to the Levantine pantheon. Others dispute the existence of the alternative names for Yam/Yaw, claiming it is a mistranslation of a damaged tablet. Despite linguistic overlap, *theologically this god is not a part of the later sub regional monotheistic theology, but rather is part of a broader Levantine polytheism.* He is also known from Egyptian sources, which present him as an enemy of Set (at the time viewed as a heroic *slayer of monsters* and similar to Levantine and Anatolian weather gods). Yam is the deity of primordial chaos and represents the power of the sea, untamed and raging; he is seen as ruling storms and the disasters they wreak. The *seven-headed dragon* Lotan is associated closely with him and *the serpent* is frequently used to describe him. Despite his antagonistic role in myths, YHW was sometimes invoked in theophoric names, indicating some degree of cult, which sets him apart from another similar figure, Tiamat. As Yam's myth is generally believed to be older than the Enuma Elish, it's possible Tiamat was partially patterned *after* him. Of all the gods, despite being the *champion of El,* YHW holds special hostility against *Baal Hadad, son of Dagon (or El).* Yam is a deity of the sea and his palace is in the *abyss* associated with the depths, or Biblical tehom, of the oceans. (This is not to be confused with the abode of Mot, the ruler of the netherworld.) In Ugaritic texts, Yahweh's special enemy Hadad is also known as the *"king of heaven" and the "first born son" of El,* whom ancient Greeks identified with their god Cronus, just as Baal was identified with Zeus, Yam with Poseidon and Mot with Hades. While Baal Hadad was the lead god in Ugarit, in the Baal cycle it is Yaw who is favored by El, and he even briefly rules over the other gods. Baal only rises to power after vanquishing him with the help of his allies Kothar-wa-Khasis, Astarte and Anat. Yam's ultimate fate is unclear, as the text makes references to both death and captivity, and in later sections of the myth Baal talks about Yam/Yaw as if he was *still alive and a possible threat.* While in the past researchers, especially those belonging to the myth-ritual tradition, interpreted the myths of Baal, Yhw and Mot as a representation of the cycle of seasons and thus related to fertility rites, this view is challenged in more recent scholarship as incorrect or simplistic. His name comes from the Canaanite (Israelite) word Yam, meaning "Sea."

You're not far off. There's a Canaanite tribe called the Kenites in the Bible, and they are literally the "people of Cain". (The spelling is the same in Hebrew.) I cover that a bit in an old blog post: wp.me/p4jfyy-iDS
All of Cain's descendents were wiped out during the great flood. We're all descendant from Noah's three sons, Canaanites are probably descendanted from Ham.
The Philistines were apparently Mycenaean Greeks who came to Canaan at the end of the Bronze Age as part of the so-called Sea People invasion. Within the biblical timeline, Abram would have lived around 2000 BCE, some 800 years earlier.
The philistines were a people that came from the line of mizram the father of the Egyptians that why in some bibles the cheif of the philistines Ebimelech was called pharaoh
You’re referring to the Table of Nations in Genesis 10, which shows how the author perceived the relationships between nations in his own day. The genealogy is *schematic* and not a list of historical individuals. Mizraim means “two lands” and refers to the united Egyptian monarchy of Upper and Lower Egypt. It was never a person’s name and would have been meaningless prior to dynastic Egypt. The Egyptians themselves called their country Kemet, meaning the land of black soil. The Bible recognizes in several places that the Philistines came from outside Palestine-either Casluhim (Gen. 10:14) or Camphor (Amos 9:7). Camphor is probably correct, since it likely refers to Crete. Archaeology shows that the Philistines were a migrant group from Greece at the end of the Bronze Age who brought Mycenaean material culture with them. Everywhere the Philistines lived, we find Mycenaean pottery.
@@InquisitiveBibleso what does that tell you? I mean if the people residing there were different from the people we see today then that means that Ancient Greece and by extension Ancient Rome had hammitic origins
If you review the Curse of Ham which was extended to his son Canaan, you might the realize bias, hatred, and entitlement the authors wrote with. The Old Testament is used by most or all religions, it was written by Hebrews. - Wrote a group was cursed into enslavement - Wrote a land was promised to themselves - Wrote in Hebrew, which is based on the Proto-Canaanite alphabet, the aforementioned We know the Exodus overlaps with Hyksos being forced out. Kamose and Ahmose I are the two brothers that forced them out. Google Ahmose I sister-wife. Then, research on who the Hyksos (foreign rulers) was, it could be two ethnic groups that includes Hebrews. That story of Kamose and Ahmose I could be the idea behind “Moses”. Meaning, Moses was just an alias when the Hyksos fled. There’s the strong potential for bias and projecting. Hebrew also see Jesus as a false prophet.
“Levant” is the label commonly used by historians and archaeologists for the region of West Asia encompassing Canaan, the Transjordan, and Syria. It's convenient because it doesn't refer to any specific ethnic group or political entity. I'm not aware of Africa ever being used as a label for this area.
there was no levant because Canaan was black. Levant or Lavan means white. In the bible Canaan was Ham's son Ham was the father of all of the Africans, not the negroes. Canaan encompassed today what we call Israel, Lebanon and Syria. This was Canann and it was all black. The Cannannites were Hammites which means they were black..@@InquisitiveBible

Thanks for the comment. I don't know much about the theory you're proposing, but the Kinana tribe was located near Mecca in the 7th century CE, so that's a pretty large gap in both geography and time.
Read the Bible these people are very confusing. There is all kinds of religion out and different beliefs most are oculus. The Bible talks about Baal, read for yourself. Satan is in this world having his evil teachers to confuse you , he has shot time here and American’s become one of the most evil nations. Think they know it all. When Obama’s came in White House he brought a lot demons and you cannot get rid of. He is one of Satan’s that is working through to destroy the true. People need read the Bible, stop listening to all this and ministers. There are very few good ministers. All these people in churches look so, sad. I never seen so, many churches and how dark inside no, light. We need stop pay attention to these people. As you read God speaks. You have to read more than once. Read over and over. Read Old Testament before New. Your ministers are confusing, they skip around to one chapter and read verse never read whole chapter all goes together. You can not pick verse out each sun day and different chapters it would be like puzzle does not fit together.

One question: In the Bible is written that Canaan was the son of Ham, son of Noah. How come the Canaanites were semites, descendants of Shem, another son of Noah?
Sorry I missed this question. Basically, the author of Genesis 10 wanted to maintain a strong distinction between the nations of "Canaan" (the competitors of Israel when it came to controlling Palestine) and Israel, so they lumped Canaan with Egypt. Depending on when it was written there might have been other political concerns involved as well. Genesis 10 suggests that the Judaean elite, at the time of writing, are aligned with the Arameans (Syrians/Seleucids), Assyrians, and other Mesopotamian groups in opposition to the Egyptian sphere of influence (Egypt, Phoenicia, Philistia, Nubia), with the Greek world (Japheth) a neutral third party.
Genealogies in the Bible aren't necessarily based on heredity and actual family relationships. They're more a reflection of the author's contemporary ethnic and political worldview.
I really appreciate the amount of work that you put into these videos. I always learn something from them.

Excellent summary - looking forward to the promised follow up!
*He Who Rides On The Clouds 🌥:*
Baal is a western Semitic title that means Master or Lord. While it can actually refer to a large number of different deities, Baal in this case refers to *Hadad,* the Canaanite and Syrian god of rain, fertility, life, agriculture and thunder, particularly popular in *Ugarit and Aleppo.*
He was worshipped in many ancient Middle Eastern communities, who considered him one of the most important gods in their respective local pantheons.
He was at least in part derived from the Sumerian god Ishkur, but their character differed substantially; while Ishkur represented the destructive power of storms, the western Semitic Baal was the master of *life-giving rains vital for farmers.*
Thanks to his huge influence, Baal was designated as the universal god of fertility, and in that capacity his title was Prince, Lord of the Earth.
He was also called the Lord of Rain and Dew, the two forms of moisture that were indispensable for fertile soil in Canaan In Ugaritic and Hebrew, Baal's epithet as the storm god was *He Who Rides on the Clouds.*
In the Baal (Lord) Cycle he's frequently called "Aliyan Baal" or "Baal, the victorious." In Phoenicia, he was called Baal Shamen, Lord of the Heavens.
In Syria, hail was seen as a phenomenon closely related to him.
He was also the king of the gods, and, to achieve that position, he was portrayed as seizing the divine kingship from *Yam (or Yaw "YHW"), the sea god, described as a tyrannical ruler.*
Baal was probably also regarded as the *source of royal authority for human kings*, and myths and prayers depict him as an *ally and protector of humans.*
In his main myth, the so-called Baal Cycle, Baal was locked in mortal combat with Mot, the personification of death and sterility.
If Baal triumphed, humanity would thrive; but, if he were to be vanquished by Mot, humans would suffer and their crops would wither away.
While the myths present a decisive conclusion to the conflict, some scholars assume it was believed to repeat in cycles.
Like many deities of the ancient Near East, Hadad was always represented in a horned headdress.
In art, he's often shown holding a club and thunderbolt or two clubs. While Mesopotamian depictions of the storm god and the famous Baal stele depict him as a typical bearded Near Eastern god, many Canaanite depictions are instead more similar to Egyptian warrior gods and beardless.
Baal was also frequently associated with bulls. The bull was a widespread symbol of divinity in ancient Mesopotamia and areas infuenced by it.
Other storm gods from cultures closely related to that of ancient Canaan, like Hurrian Teshub and Hittite Tarhunna, were depicted very similarly to Baal in art, and their myths shared many similarities as well.
The Egyptian god Set in his generally positive aspect as a god of foreigners was also associated with Baal, taking his role in the Egyptian adaptation of the Yam (Yaw) narrative.
Baal is usually associated with the goddesses Ashtart (commonly called "the Face of Baal," indicating particularly close bond between these two deities), a western Semitic equivalent of Ishtar, and Anat, both of who are often interpreted as his consorts. Anat is also called Baal's sister, though it's unclear if they share the exact same parents, as in Ugaritic texts Baal calls two separate gods, El (the husband of Asherah) and Dagan, his fathers.
Whether the two fathers were one and the same or if one of these was simply a courtesy title indicating superior status is a matter of scholarly debate, though cultic rather than mythical texts regard Dagan as separate from El.
The name Baal, or Ba'al, is used as a substitute of Hadad in some ancient texts and in common modern usage. This is possibly derived from the fact that in ancient Canaan only priests were allowed to utter the divine name, in much the same way as in Judaism where only priests were allowed to utter the name of God, so common people simply referred to him as Baal.
It's also possible the title was eventually deemed to be integral to Hadad's cult it functionally became his main name.
The word ba'al and its plural form were also used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to cult images, and in this context they were regarded as false gods. *Because of this, several demons were derived from Baal, including Bael and Beelzebub.*
Many of the most famous biblical references to Baal, for example the tale of *Jezebel, are related to the traditions of the cities of Sidon and Tyre,* where the title of Baal was applied to *deities other than Hadad.*
(Neither Elijah nor Jezebel were good for Israel 🇮🇱 in this story)
❤❤❤
Baal Hadad was worshipped by the Edomites when Esau and Jacob were enemies 😅
The 8th King of Edom returning is Baal Hadad..

This was very great!
Great Great Great Production! It's as though I'm threading this together with my own research and materials, though it's all mostly new and very informative to me. ❤️🌎🙏🏻
Always liked the idea that it came from 'kinahhu', the Hurrian word for 'purple'. Purple dye was a major export of Canaan. I also like the idea that there was a strong Hurrian ancestry in Canaan, as suggested by DNA originating in the chalcolithic Zagros and Bronze age Caucasus appearing in Canaan from 2500 BCE to 1000 BCE.
Thanks for the comment. I like the 'purple' idea too, but the more recent scholarship says a connection is unlikely, so I didn't bring it up. I didn't know about the DNA thing.
Interesting idea.

Great stuff as always, an incredible amount of research.
Thanks, Lachlan.
What are you referring to when you say that the pentateuch looks back at the fall of judah and samaria in past tense?
Hi Richard, thanks for the comment. What I mean is that the Deuteronomistic History (the books of Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, Samuel, and Kings) in its canonical form tells a continuous story that ends with the fall of Samaria and Judah and the exile, so it’s looking back at those events in the past, and its theology is highly concerned with the loss of homeland as the result of sinning against Yahweh. The speech of Moses in Deut. 29-30 is particularly concerned with the fall of Jerusalem and exile (a future event within the narrative, but a past event from the author’s perspective).
Scholars generally see the Tetrateuch (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers) as even later than Deuteronomy. The priestly source in particular treats Judaism as an exilic or post-exilic religion overseen by classes of priests instead of by a monarchy. It’s a topic much too vast for a UA-cam comment, but there are many more reasons to date the Pentateuch and DH to exilic or post-exilic times in their final form.
* Yes ,thank you .Very Interesting !!
Hey dude, thanks for your work. It really helps me with much needed context when reading the bible critically. Cheers 🍻
Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it.
Much of what he says is baseless assumptions and hypotheses. If you need context for reading your Bible you need to read the academic work yourself, don’t trust a UA-cam video.
@@redrkstone Thx brother. I understand what you're saying. Are you a devout Christian? Are you in the middle? Do you have a background in theology? I'd like to know more.
I heartily encourage everyone who wants to know more to read the original sources, which I list in the description. The ones by Mary Buck, Israel Finkelstein, Donald Redford, and Seth Sanders are especially useful.
"Baseless assumptions" is a bit unkind. I can show you solid academic sources for every element of my video.

Thanks! I’ll keep that in mind.
Great scholarship. Dude gotta gift
Excellent video! I do feel like the Canaanites did express their literary culture, we just lost their writing to History. There are a ton of cultures throughout the Bronze Age Near East, that lost their writing, such as the Kingdom of Mitanni. Archaeology is very selective in what it preserves (especially writing objects), but thats my perspective. But good job its a great video!
Thanks for the comment. It's nice hearing the perspective of someone who has been studying the same area.
I mean, if you consider the fact that hebrews/israelites/judeans are canaanite peoples, the best selling book in the world, the Bible, is kind of their literary culture.
great video paul
Thanks for watching!
There are writings of the war of kadesh

Professor Israel Finkelstein, an Israeli archaeologist, thinks that the Jews were in fact Canaanites living in the plateaus around Jerusalem who had abandoned their religion to worship a single god Yahve!
Thanks for the comment. Dr. Finkelstein is a monumental scholar in the field, and I relied on his work a lot for this video.
So what’s the war for?
Canannites pretending to be Jews lol. Check out ELIAM and Robert Sepher and others… like key words rh negative, holy grail
No. Hebrews wrote the Bible with bias, Enslavement, and entitlement in mind.
Canaan is the son of Ham, or extension. Now, why in the hell would Hebrews curse themselves into eternal slavery??
Do some research on Ham and Kamose and Ahmose I who had to force the foreigners out (Hyksos) and why.
We are seeing some of the issues in real time today. Same “land without a people”
Read your history! The “jews” are exiled Babylonians .. one of their kings is literally named gudea.. they mixed with cannanites and Egyptians and Ethiopians and Scythians .. Abraham came from
Ur. In Iraq which is Babylon /sumer .. it seems the original Babylonians are depicted with black hair and blue eyes be there later Carthaginians.. we’re as cannanite /phonecians tend to have red hair at times … I think they are proto Celtic/semetic and mixed with aryans/asians/egyptians/some African
Thank you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Many israelites took canaanites wife, Bible told that Sarah, Rebecca, Lea, Rachel and Dinah were original mesopotamians mother-line.
Indeed, and we don't find the same antagonism toward Canaanites in most of those patriarchal stories that we find in books like Joshua.
“But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.””
Joshua 24:15 NIV
So would it be accurate to say that the Canaanites were jewish peoples? Or did the tribes believe in their own gods? 7:52
It's basically the other way around. Some Canaanite tribes/kingdoms became "Jewish" when they adopted the god Yahweh during the Iron Age. There's some evidence that Yahweh was worshiped first by tribes in Edom to the south, and then was adopted by Israel (the northern kingdom) and Judah. Association with a particular god became an important part of nation-building, so the Moabites starting with king Mesha (probably) began identifying Chemosh as their national God, even though they worshiped many gods just as the Jews continued to do until much later.
The Bible aknowledges that caananites from Midian in Sinai worshipped Yahwe before Moses did.
Indeed! And there's an old hypothesis called the Midianite Hypothesis that says Yahweh was first worshiped by the Midianites and other people in southern Canaan before Israel adopted him as their god.
References at timestamp 12:36 are incorrect.
Isaiah 29:46 doesn’t exist…
& Every translation of the Bible has psalms 132:1-2 reading as the “mighty one of Jacob” NOT “bull of Jacob”…
Yeah, that was a typo that made it through. The correct reference is Isaiah 49:26.
Regarding the Bull of Jacob, the citations shown on the right explain why that is likely the correct reading. (I am reliant on Hebrew experts here, but it is a widely held view.) The original unpointed Hebrew on its own is ambiguous and can be read either way. English translations usually follow the Masoretic pointing, which was introduced much later. I give a bit more of an explanation in my video on the golden calf: ua-cam.com/video/uixZFHPZ0oo/v-deo.html
Thanks for the thoughtful and quick reply
Book of Jubilees found in the Dead Sea Scrolls will tell you where the Canaanites came from
Hebrew emerge as a separate tongue after the bronze age collapse so did the Israelites.They were caananites too.
One question: In the Bible is written that Canaan was the son of Ham, son of Noah. How come the Canaanites were semites, descendants of Shem, another son of Noah?
The genealogies and the Table of Nations are less about describing historical ethnic descent and more about describing relationships in the author’s own day and the self-image of the Judaeans/Israelites in relation to surrounding nations. Canaan was lumped with Egypt, Nubia, and Libya either to put cultural distance between Israel and its perceived enemy, or because there was still plentiful cultural influence from Egypt in Palestine whenever Genesis 10 was composed. Israel is made a cousin of the Assyrians, Arameans, and (probably) Babylonians, which is reinforced in the patriarchal narratives through stories about Abraham the Babylonian and Laban the Aramean. This perspective makes a lot of sense particularly if these traditions came from Judaeans living in Babylon who no longer saw the existing inhabitants of Palestine as true Jews.
@@InquisitiveBible Thanks for the lecture...

Thanks for the comment. The great majority of Bible art available to me online, both modern and historical, was produced by Eurocentric artists and painters who tend to depict Bible people and places in terms that are familiar to them, not only in terms of skin tone but also clothing, architecture, etc. I try to avoid the worst, but the history of religious art is still interesting in reflecting how each generation reinterprets the Bible and its stories.

You whitewash everything else why not whitewash the TRUTH
The Canaanites and Phoenicians (Sidon) are the same people. You are confusing your viewers by using Phoenicians and Canaanites in the same sentence. The word Phoenician is not mentioned in the Bible. It is the Greek work for Sidon.
Thanks for the comment. I did try to make it clear later in the video that after the Bronze Age, the label "Canaanite" is primarily used for the Phoenicians, particularly by the Greeks.

His name is not el it is Yahweh. el is a generic term just meaning god, just because they used that term doesn’t mean Yahweh is a Canaanite god. Yahweh has clear characteristics that are different from any other god, such as the fact that he claims to be the only true God. The Israelites did worship other canaanite gods but this was in defiance of the Torah and those are not the gods of Israel.
Abrahams God is El Elyon a domestic God. Yahweh is the god of the nomadic people the Shasu who Moses converted to in the desert. When the Israelites were exiled they taught them survival skills. Moses could not convince the Jews to give up their beloved stories from Genesis and so said they are the same God. The brutal God of the wilderness Yahweh and the domestic God El Elyon. That is why reading the Old Testament can be so shocking. One minute the violent God of war is vowing to reduce his enemies with such hate that they will be forced to consume their children, then a few pages later we are told the Lord is wise and compassionate ( El Elyon). This hybrid God has become the most worshipped Deity on earth. The Shasu didn't survive to see their triumph.
Yea so that’s definitely not what happened whats your evidence
to far from right.
Can not agree with this video sorry
Canaanites were called Phoenicians by the Greeks
Phoenicians were all over the mediterranean
later became known as the Hebrews
but originally a Hebrew was a Fire Priest
Palestinians have such a beautiful and diverse history
Israelites. Stop stealing history.
The book of Deuteronomy explains that because the true Israelites lived in Cannan after Moses and became disobedient to Gods word and became slaves all over the world mainly the Americas
You have some false logic: just because Egyptians considered Israelites as Canaaneans, you expect them to be right.
But Abraham and family, though living in Canaan, are said to be different according to the bible. Also, Abraham is supposed to have been very successful and loved in preaching his religion.
Your anti bible bias is trying to prove the bible wrong but you also could have proven the bible right with the same fact.

Your conclusions are based off biased assumptions, not what’s written in archeology.
The archeology does not contradict the Bible’s records. They actually don’t provide conclusions on their own.

@@InquisitiveBible Not what I disputed- your sources are fine, they do excellent analyses. The problem is _none of them_ provide proof for the narrative you’re pushing: the one about how biblical authors conspired and lied about public history

Good research, but why in the world would you use the Google name of God that is fairly recent in time just a few hundred years old and from only ONE source, rather that the proven “HEBREW” name of God (El) found in THOUSANDS of HEBREW, not Greek ancient manuscripts. 😢. What name do you find in the most ancient and accepted accurate HEBREW codex’s? Instead of a single non-Hebrew source, try researching the 2,000+ Ancient Hebrew codexes such as the Aleppo, and Leningrad codexes? Other than that, good research.
Thanks for the comment, Robert. I don't quite understand your point about the name. In the Hebrew Bible, God is either referred to as YHWH or as El and its derivatives (Elohim, Eloah, Elyon, etc.). It's the latter name that I'm mostly interested here in connection with Canaanite culture.
@@InquisitiveBible I’m sorry I should have been more specific; in the oldest trusted Aleppo Hebrew Masoretes codex where the scibes by accident used All Three vowel pointers Pronouncing Yehovah Seven Times. Yeshua’s name is taken from Yehovah, meaning Yehovah’s salvation. You will find this in the second most trusted ancient Hebrew codex; the Leningrad, also pronounced as Yehovah. The seven occurrences in the Aleppo are: Ezekiel 3:12, Samuel 15:1 (folio 44v), and to be brief also in the Leningrad Bible dated at 1008CE; Leviticus 25:17. There are many more including also the KJV that has it 7 times (not that I rely on KJV), but certainly more than German popularized Yahweh. That is not even Hebrew, but instead points back to the god of Jupiter 😬. I put quite a bit of this at www.2theway.org
Not ONE SINGLE "Hebrew" source/codex of the Bible will you be able to find the Greek/German Yahweh pronunciation, however you will find the pronunciation used at the time of Yeshua/Jesus in over 2,000 HEBREW codex's and bibles. You'll even find it in the 1st 1611 KJB, the current ASV and several others. Don't go with the uninformed mainstream Google group, look to HEBREW sources if you care to actually know the best pronunciation of the most high's name given in Ex 3:14&15. You'll also find it in the very most important MAIN codex's for bible translations,- the Aleppo and Leningrad code's.

Egyptologist Donald Redford argues that conquest of Egypt by the Hyksos involved significant destruction (for which there is archaeological evidence) and was not a peaceful takeover. The Hyksos were Asiatics of unknown origin, but they were almost certainly from the Levant, and there are some material remains suggesting Phoenicia or northern Canaan. (Source: Redford.

Canaan was Levant, not Arab. Arabs are from the Arabian peninsula and colonised the Levant, west Asia, central Asia, North Africa. Stop be proud of colonizing others.
Those people were black. Egyptians were black and the
cannaan sites were black
Skin colour doesn't matter.
The land of Canaan means Egypt, it is a nickname for Egypt. They are not a separate race, they are just tribes.
Really, read your Jewish bible if you wish, but don't bother anyone else.
Both Judaism as well as Islam are condensed versions of Canaanite/Phoenician beliefs.
elaborate, I'm interested
Islam is Arabian, not Levant.

Waaaaaay off. You are omitting tons of important info from the Bible that explain all of the issues you are bringing up...
Scott, as I hope the title and introduction make clear, this video is about describing the Canaanites as they appear in the archaeological and historical record, and then comparing that to the Bible's use of the term 'Canaanite'. The sources provided in the description are all peer-reviewed papers and books by experts in the field. If there's anything specific you disagree with, feel free to provide more detail.
@@InquisitiveBibleu removing the bible as a historical source says a lot about
@@hopefulson1881That’s because it’s not a reliable historical source, as most scholars in the field acknowledge.
@@yohei72 that’s funny because they seem to always confirm it one way or another
I don’t like how you frame this, @InquisitiveBible : your conclusions are based off biased assumptions, not what’s written in archeology.
The archeology does not contradict the Bible’s records. They actually don’t provide conclusions on their own.
Now if we’re to add to this discussion the fields of tradition and mythos… a very different conclusion is made than the one your video presents.
Abram waa a Chaldean from Ur, he betrothed his first cousin, Sarai and with a few more Ivries ( sons of Eber) left the land of Ur, north of later what would be known as Babylon, after the fall of Nimrod ( in the land of Shinar).
The early Hebrews ( having crossed over from pagan idol worship , such as Abram's father and whole existing culture, and made their way through the valley's and fields of the land of already existing Canaan ( named so, due to the seizing of land inherited to Shem, son of Noah, not Keenan, who illegally seized the land belonging to Shem. After years of idol worship to the gods Baal, Moluch, Ishtar, Ashara, and Talmuz, they were sacrificing children, to their gods in bloodied altars near the Mount Hermon where the fallen angels made a pact before the great flood. This all took place witt the ancestors of these abominations, the Rafaim. They were still giants, but not as large as the Nephilim of Antedeluvian scale. After Abram, who was given Abraham by YHWH, not YahWeh, but the true name YAHUAH, the one ELOHIM, the most high. Abraham was given Goshen , a most fertile land by the Nile delta, by the Pharoah. Later after many years, the new Assyrian Pharoah did not remember the pact made to Abraham and took his descendents as indentured slaves and servants, until eventually Moses came back to become reacquainted with Aaron his estranged brother, and we all know what happened as a result of the Ramses Pharoah ..when they re-entered Canaan, the multi nation Canaanites, the Amarites, Jezubites, and Perizites, etc, were taken down by Joshua and his armies witg the help of YAH, and the constant presence of the Ark of the Covenant. The rest is history. Some Hebrew tribes that were allotted land in Canaan, stayed clear of intermarriage with Canaanite women, some disobeyed, some forgot who to worship based on Torah laws not pagan sacrifices and abominations. Maybe that us why mention of the details of their incredibly wicked societies wasn't worth giving details other than Og of Gog. There has been a plaque hammered out by Joshua after making an offering of his seizing Jericho, that they were cursed cursed by YAHUAH forever for their atrocities and child sacrifices.
Your history doesn't even touch on those chronicles does it?
Canaanites came from Ham and Ham committed sexual sin with his Father Noah (Gen 9:22), and the curse was laid upon Canaan the son of Ham for his sinful act.
Canaan = Scorpio.
The Canaanites/Philistines are the five signs found in Revelation 9.5. The scorpion (Scorpio constellation) is the leader of Sagittarius thru Pisces. These five signs make up the body of Jesus (as the winter sun).
The winter season was a period of hunger, sickness, cold, rain, slavery, and death where it was important that the crops saved from summer were to be shared with all. Craig is pushing for the killing of Jesus (as the winter sun) who called for this sharing of the crops.
This is explained in Matthew 25:35-40 ...... for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’ “Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’
How does this compare to the “Christians” who support the murder of the Palestinians and theft of their homes?
Those people and so-called Israel are one and the same..they were Phoenicians..
Thanks for the comment. In political terms, the kingdom of Samaria (=Israel) was a separate entity from Phoenicia, but the biblical picture of Israel extends further to include what were probably Phoenician lands, particularly in the case of northern tribes like Zebulon and Naphtali where all the epigraphic finds are apparently in Phoenician rather than Hebrew.
Like my comment
Did you just make up your own Bible verses?? Lol where is Isaiah 29:46? And Pslams 132:1-2 says Might one or "Abir" of Jacob ...that does not mean bull, parim or par is bull in Hebrew. Bunch of hot steam from this channel...going no where.
Michael, thanks for the comment. I provide a fuller explanation of “bull of Jacob” in my Golden Calf video. This link includes the exact timestamp: ua-cam.com/video/uixZFHPZ0oo/v-deo.htmlsi=8rLbEUyvHWI2ALXm&t=367
What the scholars I have consulted believe is that the Masoretic text has been mispointed. The unpointed Hebrew of the original manuscripts can just as easily be read ‘abbir ya’aqob, “bull of Jacob”. John Day considers this the correct reading, and Chaim Cohen makes a case for this reading on linguistic grounds in his 2015 paper “The BH-Akk. Simile … in the Speech of the Assyrian King”.
> Bunch of hot steam from this channel...going no where.
A little civility wouldn't kill you.
@@InquisitiveBible I can't find a single reputable Hebrew scholar that says Abbir means bull. It most overwhelmingly means Strong/ mighty (in Assyrian), Winged (Hebrew), or Strong Aroma (in Arabic)....all such semetic roots pointing towards a name meaning an Angel which we know to be mighty if the Lord uses it.
What's more there are at least 3 Hebrew words that mean Bull that are used over 150 times in the Bible. And you think the writer forgot all of those words and used a obscure unused word to say Bull.... com'on let's be serious...is this channel just for your cognitive dissonance....seems hot and steamy to me. Keep it to yourself.
Check The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew (1993), which I believe is the standard Hebrew dictionary for academic work. Volume 1 (Aleph), page 106. It's the second definition under the entry for abbir.
2. mighty animal. a. bull, Is 10:13, 34:7, Jr 46:15, Ps 22:13, 50:13, 68:31, Si 7:31
This is followed by a long list of contextual examples, many of which have the meaning "bull". The reading "bull of Jacob" is accepted, in addition to the aforementioned John Day and Chaim Cohen, by Rainer Albertz (A History of Israelite Religion in the Old Testament, 1994, p. 309), Ralph Klein ("The 'Sin' of Jeroboam", 2018), and too many others to bother naming.
@@InquisitiveBible listen and I will teach you of understanding....just because a word has a secondary association doesn't mean that association is the appropriate or necessary translated word in the context . Let's look at Isaiah 10:13 as you referenced. Isa 10:13: "For he saith, By the strength [coach] of my hand.."
That verse contains the word "Coach" which could mean reptile (secondary association) or it could just mean the primary definition of "strength" as is often the literary style of Hebrew to call to attention a literal thing as to make a metaphor to describe a characteristic of completely different object, not to be taken literally. If God wanted to refer to a reptile literally he could have used any of the following word, לטאה, just like if he meant to say bull he would have used any of the words that are known to have a primary stable definition for Bull: פּר, בּקר, etc.
Or do you present that Isiah 10:13 is supposed to read according to your style:
Isa 10:13: "For he saith, By the [reptile] of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom;...
So is God saying He is a reptile or is he making a metaphor as to the swift, decisive, and unchanging plan of his action (like a reptile). Would we go on to Call God the Reptile of Jacob?
If we continue in Isaiah 10:
for I am prudent: and I have removed the bounds of the people, and have robbed their treasures, and I have put down the dwellings/inhabitants like a [bull]"
Here God is using a smile obviously because he uses the prefix "כ" before the Abir. Which means "like". So "like a bull" at most but better "like a mighty man". We know that Abir is an ancient poetic name for God. Not meant to say God is a bull.
Just as we know God is called a mighty man of war. Is God a man? That's a much more interesting question. If you think God can be a bull surely you think God can be a man?
Another example...Do you understand the history of the word susi? one of its secondary meanings is horse, but that is not what Susi means primarily. If You were to translate every incident of susi as horse you would have a very confusing time.
Israelites no cannint 😂. The Shem
Israel's Polytheistic Background and the Ugaritic Texts
Is Yahwism (J source) and Leviathan/Lotan (P source) in the Ugaritic texts?
In 1 Kings 22:19-22 we read of Yahweh meeting with his heavenly council. This is the very description of heaven which one finds in the Ugaritic texts. For in those texts the *sons of god* are the *Sons of El.* Other deities worshipped at Ugarit were *El Shaddai, El Elyon, and El Berith.*
Yam, also known as Yaw (YHW from Mt Ebal curse tablet; oldest Yahweh inscription ever found), is the Ugaritic god of rivers and the sea. Also known as Judge Nahar ("Judge River"), he is also one of the *Elohim* or *sons of El,* the name given to the Levantine pantheon.
Others dispute the existence of the alternative names for Yam/Yaw, claiming it is a mistranslation of a damaged tablet. Despite linguistic overlap, *theologically this god is not a part of the later sub regional monotheistic theology, but rather is part of a broader Levantine polytheism.*
He is also known from Egyptian sources, which present him as an enemy of Set (at the time viewed as a heroic *slayer of monsters* and similar to Levantine and Anatolian weather gods).
Yam is the deity of primordial chaos and represents the power of the sea, untamed and raging; he is seen as ruling storms and the disasters they wreak.
The *seven-headed dragon* Lotan is associated closely with him and *the serpent* is frequently used to describe him.
Despite his antagonistic role in myths, YHW was sometimes invoked in theophoric names, indicating some degree of cult, which sets him apart from another similar figure, Tiamat.
As Yam's myth is generally believed to be older than the Enuma Elish, it's possible Tiamat was partially patterned *after* him.
Of all the gods, despite being the *champion of El,* YHW holds special hostility against *Baal Hadad, son of Dagon (or El).*
Yam is a deity of the sea and his palace is in the *abyss* associated with the depths, or Biblical tehom, of the oceans. (This is not to be confused with the abode of Mot, the ruler of the netherworld.)
In Ugaritic texts, Yahweh's special enemy Hadad is also known as the *"king of heaven" and the "first born son" of El,* whom ancient Greeks identified with their god Cronus, just as Baal was identified with Zeus, Yam with Poseidon and Mot with Hades.
While Baal Hadad was the lead god in Ugarit, in the Baal cycle it is Yaw who is favored by El, and he even briefly rules over the other gods. Baal only rises to power after vanquishing him with the help of his allies Kothar-wa-Khasis, Astarte and Anat.
Yam's ultimate fate is unclear, as the text makes references to both death and captivity, and in later sections of the myth Baal talks about Yam/Yaw as if he was *still alive and a possible threat.*
While in the past researchers, especially those belonging to the myth-ritual tradition, interpreted the myths of Baal, Yhw and Mot as a representation of the cycle of seasons and thus related to fertility rites, this view is challenged in more recent scholarship as incorrect or simplistic.
His name comes from the Canaanite (Israelite) word Yam, meaning "Sea."

The canaanites were black people read the bible.
Descendents of Cain... hence Cannanites.
You're not far off. There's a Canaanite tribe called the Kenites in the Bible, and they are literally the "people of Cain". (The spelling is the same in Hebrew.) I cover that a bit in an old blog post: wp.me/p4jfyy-iDS
@@InquisitiveBible Interesting, thanks.
All of Cain's descendents were wiped out during the great flood. We're all descendant from Noah's three sons, Canaanites are probably descendanted from Ham.
@@herbertthepervert9129 Or, possibly, through the wife of one of Noah's son's. There were 8 people on the ark.
There were philistine people in canaan in Abram days
The Philistines were apparently Mycenaean Greeks who came to Canaan at the end of the Bronze Age as part of the so-called Sea People invasion. Within the biblical timeline, Abram would have lived around 2000 BCE, some 800 years earlier.
The philistines were a people that came from the line of mizram the father of the Egyptians that why in some bibles the cheif of the philistines Ebimelech was called pharaoh
You’re referring to the Table of Nations in Genesis 10, which shows how the author perceived the relationships between nations in his own day. The genealogy is *schematic* and not a list of historical individuals. Mizraim means “two lands” and refers to the united Egyptian monarchy of Upper and Lower Egypt. It was never a person’s name and would have been meaningless prior to dynastic Egypt. The Egyptians themselves called their country Kemet, meaning the land of black soil.
The Bible recognizes in several places that the Philistines came from outside Palestine-either Casluhim (Gen. 10:14) or Camphor (Amos 9:7). Camphor is probably correct, since it likely refers to Crete. Archaeology shows that the Philistines were a migrant group from Greece at the end of the Bronze Age who brought Mycenaean material culture with them. Everywhere the Philistines lived, we find Mycenaean pottery.
@@InquisitiveBibleso what does that tell you? I mean if the people residing there were different from the people we see today then that means that Ancient Greece and by extension Ancient Rome had hammitic origins
If you review the Curse of Ham which was extended to his son Canaan, you might the realize bias, hatred, and entitlement the authors wrote with.
The Old Testament is used by most or all religions, it was written by Hebrews.
- Wrote a group was cursed into enslavement
- Wrote a land was promised to themselves
- Wrote in Hebrew, which is based on the Proto-Canaanite alphabet, the aforementioned
We know the Exodus overlaps with Hyksos being forced out. Kamose and Ahmose I are the two brothers that forced them out. Google Ahmose I sister-wife.
Then, research on who the Hyksos (foreign rulers) was, it could be two ethnic groups that includes Hebrews. That story of Kamose and Ahmose I could be the idea behind “Moses”. Meaning, Moses was just an alias when the Hyksos fled.
There’s the strong potential for bias and projecting.
Hebrew also see Jesus as a false prophet.
That was Africa back in the 3550 BCE. There was no Levant, that is a recent name
“Levant” is the label commonly used by historians and archaeologists for the region of West Asia encompassing Canaan, the Transjordan, and Syria. It's convenient because it doesn't refer to any specific ethnic group or political entity. I'm not aware of Africa ever being used as a label for this area.
there was no levant because Canaan was black. Levant or Lavan means white. In the bible Canaan was Ham's son Ham was the father of all of the Africans, not the negroes. Canaan encompassed today what we call Israel, Lebanon and Syria. This was Canann and it was all black. The Cannannites were Hammites which means they were black..@@InquisitiveBible

Equivalence is drawn between two subjects based on flawed or false reasoning. When attempting for an interpretation of research results, A true scientist must be leery of extrapolating beyond the range of the data and conscious of the underlying assumptions to avoid drawing invalid conclusions.
The tendency to “discover” tiny clues from which they fabricate entire myths-all of which just happen to “disprove” the Bible, extrapolating the little data that they have to claim that they know more about ancient cultures and beliefs than the very people who lived at that time, spoke that language, read those Scriptures, and worshiped that God. The Bible refers to such scholars as “claiming to be wise, they became fools” (Romans 1:22)
Ignoring the biblical account on the idolatry of the Israelites, whereby the biblical text say Israel later fashioned a new religion similar to the Canaanites around them. Judges 17 KJV for example trying to make God as an idol image like the Canaanites among them.

Thanks for the comment. I don't know much about the theory you're proposing, but the Kinana tribe was located near Mecca in the 7th century CE, so that's a pretty large gap in both geography and time.
Read the Bible these people are very confusing. There is all kinds of religion out and different beliefs most are oculus. The Bible talks about Baal, read for yourself. Satan is in this world having his evil teachers to confuse you , he has shot time here and American’s become one of the most evil nations. Think they know it all. When Obama’s came in White House he brought a lot demons and you cannot get rid of. He is one of Satan’s that is working through to destroy the true. People need read the Bible, stop listening to all this and ministers. There are very few good ministers. All these people in churches look so, sad. I never seen so, many churches and how dark inside no, light. We need stop pay attention to these people. As you read God speaks. You have to read more than once. Read over and over. Read Old Testament before New. Your ministers are confusing, they skip around to one chapter and read verse never read whole chapter all goes together. You can not pick verse out each sun day and different chapters it would be like puzzle does not fit together.
