Great Video!!!

I’d easily watch a 20 minute video about the topics that you cover. 1 hour is long enough I probably wouldn’t pay attention to the whole thing unless it really piques my interest. But these are complex enough topics that 15-25 minutes can really bring a lot of needed nuance and context.

[@thestudyofchristianity]

Totally agree, maybe linger videos would be better. Thanks for your comment!

In just the last decade i've seen a huge shift in people now acknowledging that giants are a part of Biblical history, which is interesting. American churches in general have "explained away" the mention of giants and the nephalim in the bible because the subject is very strange (and actually more similar to legends of Greek myth).

The Rabbis say that the Philistines of Genesis are a different group of people compared to the Philistines of the Deuteronomistic history. The Philistines of Genesis only occupy "Gerar" and they are ruled by "kings". The raw Hebrew of Genesis 10:13-14 say that these Philistines come from "Casluhim". Finally, these Philistines signed a peace treaty with Abraham and Isaac. They are also small as implied by Genesis 26:16. In comparison, the Philistines of the Deuteronomistic history occupy Gaza, Ashkelon, Ashdod, Ekron and Gath (not Gerar). And these philistine rulers are described as "Lords" not Kings. The Hebrew terms are different. And like you said, these Philistines are described as from coming from Caphtorim. The reason that this is a new group of Philistines is because Abraham and Isaac signed a peace treaty with the Philistines of Gerar. So Moses and Israel cannot massacre them during the Canaanite conquest. This is what happened in Deuteronomy 2:23. The Avvites are a second term for the Philistines of Gerar/Casluhim. The new group from Caphtorim decided to take the Philistine name. The Philistine name seems to be quite powerful and influential, because even though the Philistines are destroyed in 2 Kings 18:8, the Philistine name survives to the Maccabee Greek era as shown in 1 Maccabees 5:68. THEN, the Romans decide to call it Palestine. Josephus confirms that Philistine and Palestine are indeed the same name. I hope this information serves you.

The im’s come from Mizraim: Casluhim, Caphtorim, emim, zamzumim, Philistim, nephilim Anakim. Also the gods come from Egypt. The peleset came from Egypt and were trying to go back. Before the Giants were wiped out a king named Chedolaomer had them in subjugation but they rebelled and so Chedorlaomer waged war on them. The ites may come from Canaan the Cannanite. Here’s a list of things that happened in 1200 bc: 1313 Moses exodus leaves Egypt Heracles born 1286 bc in Greece 1273 Moses dies Heracles sacks Troy 1246 1245 Joshua dies Herakles dies 1236 Judges rule beginning with Othniel 1228 1214 Seven against Thebes 1207 bc October 30 at 4:28 pm, solar eclipse. Joshua prayed to protect the Gibeonites. “Sun stand still”. 1204 The Epigoni 1199-1189 Trojan War 1184 return of the Herakladae or the Dorian Invasion

The denyen? Woowww thats the danaan(greeks) of the iliad who stayed in ships about 1200 bc in the Mediterranean. And they correspond with the biblical tribe of dan who stayed in ships about 1200 bc in the Mediterranean. So the Philistenes are greeks are sea peoples. Thats interesting.

Land of Canaan was under Egyptian denomination not Israel. Israel didn't exist, it is a religious name for a person. Egyptian called it Ratno. the peleast were moved into gaza by the egyptian themselves after defeating them they never conquered it.the greeks called the whole regione below Damascus Palestine or lower Syria. modern Palestinians are descendants of all groups that controlled that place islamised with time. if you notices they are homogeneous in their look that mean all civilizations intermixed with the canaanites. while modern Israel is total fabrication.

[@kaste94]

Some time after king Solomon's death, the land of Israel split, and the northern part was called The Kingdom of Israel, and the southern part was called Judah/Judea

[@starcapture3040]

@@kaste94 thats is the Torah a religious book not a history book. you have to tell the difference between the two. historians go by secular sources not religious ones. religious books aim is to deliver morale wisdom not history.

It also mentions history, still​@@starcapture3040
