His Sons Isaac’s son Esau—*...may have sold his birthright to his younger twin brother Jacob-Israel (whose descendants became kings of Judah), but now through Tuya and Yuya, descendants of Esau did indeed become pharaohs of Egypt. These particular pharaohs became known as the “Amarna Kings”— they were Akhenaten, Smenkhare, Tutankhamun and Aye, who ruled consecutively c. 1367-1348 B.C. (p. 184) Palestine remained under Egyptian rule at this time. If the covenant was to be taken literally, it would appear that the selling of the birthright by Esau to Jacob had no effect whatever; it was not until after the Amarna period that the lines from Esau and Jacob were united through marriage, subsequently descend- ing to the Davidic kings of Judah. (p. 184) Moses Manetho Manetho says that Moses was a Heliopolitan Priest dismissed to the mines because he contracted lep- rosy. After the lepers were sent at their own request to Avaris, Moses became their leader. He prohibited the worship of other gods and permitted animal sacrifice. He also sent to Jerusalem for 200,000 “‘shep- herds,” really called Solomites or the Hyskos, to come to Egypt that had once been expelled by Pharaoh Thotmosis. On the arrival of these people, the Pharaoh of the times called Amenophis retreated to Mem- phis and then to Ethiopia. The Solomites and false Egyptians set fire to houses and treated the populace disgracefully. They also stole all the wealth of the country. After 13 years, Amenophis returned and con- quered these usurpers. (See p. 124 of Sacred Science Chronicles by Robert Siblerud) Despite the complete illogicality of this action...the story then becomes even more implausible, for along came the Pharaoh’s daughter, who seemed to care nothing for her father’s dictate. She discovered the baby and immediately began conversing with the boy’s sister, who just happened to be close by. The sister then returned the baby to its mother, who was paid by the princess to nurse him. Hence, the boy was back were he began, and any fear of the authorities and their death-threat seems to have been con- veniently forgotten. Eventually the princess adopted the boy as her own son and called him Moses, with no one leveling any query about the child’s natural parents. (p. 187) 221 Appendix B: Book Abstracts Yuya’s elder son was ANEN who rose to power in the reign of Amenhotep III. The younger son AYE became Pharaoh in 1352 B.C. His Daughter Tiye His daughter was Tiye, who later became the older and second wife of Amenhotep LI. Tutankhamun was also a descendant (see p. 183). The Amarna Kings Manetho stated that Moses was a priest at Heliopolis. Josephus says he commanded the Egyptian army in the Ethiopian war. Adopted by a Princess It would have been very unlikely for an unmarried princess to adopt. Moses Cast on the River Atlantis, Alien Visitation, and Genetic Manipulation
