Plato - Timaeus

Plato Socrates

Psalm 2 The One enthroned in heaven laughs

Psalm 2 ,  
(1)  Why do the nations conspire and the peoples plot in vain? 
 (2)   The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the LORD and against his anointed, saying,
(3)  “Let us break their chains and throw off their shackles.”

(5)  He rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
(6)  “I have installed my king on Zion, my holy mountain.”

The Upanishads

Within the table are certain events for which Bible chronologers sometimes disagree. For those events I have provided an internal link to some further discussion that is written below the table. The following questions are examined: (1) The age of Terah when his son, Abraham, was born, (2) the period over which the children of Israel were slaves in Egypt, and (3) the period over which the judges led Israel.

Merneptah (Israel) Stele 1208

The princes are prostrate, saying, "Peace!" Not one is raising his head among the Nine Bows. Now that Tehenu (Libya) has come to ruin, Hatti is pacified; The Canaan has been plundered into every sort of woe: Ashkelon has been overcome; Gezer has been captured; Yano'am is made non-existent. Israel is laid waste and his seed is not; Hurru is become a widow because of Egypt.
