Is the Old Testament a Made Up Mythical Story?

“It will come as an unpleasant shock to many that the God of Israel, YHWH, had a female consort and that the early Israelite religion adopted monotheism only in the waning period of the monarchy and not at Mount Sinai.”

– Ha’aretz Magazine, October, 1999

Supposedly, an Israelite empire flourished in the 10th century BC, during a time of temporary weakness of both Assyria and Egypt. Yet the fabled empire of David and Solomon remains just that: a fable, unsupported by any evidence – and empires normally leave a great deal of evidence. The ’empire’ has no monuments, no inscriptions and no artifacts.

In reality, separate and distinctive chiefdoms developed in Samaria and Judah in the 9th century. They were never a ‘united monarchy.’ The north was larger, richer and more developed – and soon succumbed to the Assyrians.

Judah, in reaction, produced its pious, biblical fraud, castigating the apostate kings of the 8th – 9th century northern kingdom of ‘Israel’ and elevated its own importance in an earlier, fantasised empire – ruled from an imperial capital of Jerusalem.  – Kenneth Humphreys

“… in Jerusalem nothing has as yet been brought to light which can be ascribed to Solomon with certainty.”– Isserlin, p81.

Solomon … in the eyes of Israelite historians, marked the apex of Israelite achievement. Curiously, no reference to him or his father David, or their empire in a non-Israelite source is known …  – IsserlinThe Israelites, p72.

“The archaeological evidence in Jerusalem for the famous building projects of Solomon is nonexistent. 19th and early 20th century excavations around the Temple Mount in Jerusalem failed to identify even a trace of Solomon’s fabled Temple or palace complex.” – Finkelstein, Silberman, p128. The Bible Unearthed (Simon & Schuster, 2001)

“Jehoash Tablet” “First confirmation” of Solomon’s Jerusalem Temple? Only one problem – manufactured in Jerusalem in 2003!  Forger arrested

The Jews write in the Bible of splendid palaces, temples and an empire. Herodotus (484-425 BC) went through the region after the return of the Babylonian Exile. He is called the father of history. He was the Greek author of the first great narrative history produced in the ancient world, the History of the Greco-Persian Wars.

Herodotus was a wide traveler. His longer wandering covered a large part of the Persian Empire: he went to Egypt, at least as far south as Elephantine (Aswān), and he also visited Libya, Syria, Babylonia, Susa in Elam, Lydia, and Phrygia. He journeyed up the Hellespont (now Dardanelles) to Byzantium, went to Thrace and Macedonia, and traveled northward to beyond the Danube and to Scythia eastward along the northern shores of the Black Sea as far as the Don River and some way inland. These travels would have taken many years.

But according the Virtual Jewish World and other sources–

“The only classical writings extant referring to the Jews are *Herodotus ‘ Histories, but his acquaintance with them is at best highly superficial, and he considers them to be Syrians who practiced circumcision, which custom they had acquired from the Egyptians.

Aristotle does mention a lake in Palestine, but without connecting it in any way with the Jewish people. Thus, although the ancient civilizations of Egypt, Babylon, and Persia were familiar to the Greek men of letters and philosophers – they were apparently completely ignorant of the specific religion and culture of Palestine.

In Book of Kings the size of Jerusalem fitments to the Royal Palace included three kilometers of carvings, over hundred massive bulls and sphinxes and vast quantities of Lebanese Cedar carried over 500 miles and decorated with gold and silver. The throne had six steps and two lions stood beside the stage. Twelve lions stood on one side and on the other upon the six steps. King Solomon’s drinking vessels were of gold , none were of silver.

“Solomon … began to build the house of the LORD … And the whole house he overlaid with gold … And within the oracle he made two cherubims of olive tree, each ten cubits high … And he overlaid the cherubims with gold … And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers.” – 1 Kings 6.

Where did all this come from? Apparently an imaginative individual went to Damascus, capital of the Assyrian Empire and saw a real palace,

“And king Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, and saw an altar that was at Damascus: and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest the fashion of the altar, and the pattern of it, according to all the workmanship thereof.

And Urijah the priest built an altar according to all that king Ahaz had sent from Damascus: so Urijah the priest made it against king Ahaz came from Damascus.” – 2 Kings 16.10,11.

From Wikipedia:  “Those for what is customarily called Solomon’s Temple are indirect and some are challenged. There is limited physical evidence of Solomon’s Temple, although it is still widely accepted to have existed.” – (my takeaway)- don’t need proof apparently.

other sources: Bible History Daily–

But is there evidence that such a prosperous time existed for ancient Israel and Judah? If so, can these achievements be attributed to Solomon? Although no direct textual or archaeological evidence of Solomon has been discovered, archaeologists continue to look for clues that can substantiate key aspects of his reign as described in the Bible, including his legendary wealth, trade connections, and building projects.

Records one historian,
“The first millennium of Jewish history as presented in the Bible has no empirical foundation whatsoever.” – Cantor, The Sacred Chain, p 51.
The Actual History

The extraordinary thing about this ‘history’ – complete with dialogue between man and god – is that it was not written until more than a thousand years after the supposed events.

The Gog-Magog Situation

Tracing the Jews (the people of Judah), back through Hebrews in Canaan and Israelites in Egypt, to a noble ancestor called Abraham and the whole melodramatic story of the Exodus, was concocted at a much later date, after the tribal leadership of these Judaean tribesmen had been taken into exile and had learned the rudiments of civilization from the Babylonians. This is dated at 598-538 BC.

At that point a Persian-sponsored priesthood settled in Judaea and wrote a sacred history, known to the Jews as the Torah (or Pentateuch ) and to the Christians as the first ‘five books’ of the Old Testament. Together with the ‘Prophets’ and ‘Wisdom’ literature this voluminous text purports to be an account of the trials and tribulations of the Jews through the previous two millennia.

Curiously and inexplicably in the span of history after the return from the Babylon Exile no biblical text gives the conquest of Palestine by Alexander the Great (in 323 BC) a mention. Ptolemaic Egypt’s loss of her Palestinian provinces to Syria in 198 BC is unrecorded. Personages like Julius Caesar and Pompey the Great are overlooked. And the books of Maccabees – which should tell us the ‘recent’ story of the successful Jewish rebellion against Greek rule in the second century BC – are blatantly filled with error and incoherence.

      • I have studied the Bible seriously since 1986 and have been through the gauntlet regarding all of these twists and turns. The best way to understand the Bible is to realize that it is speaking about the lawful justification of the unmoved mover’s (Jehovah – he is causing to become) intervening and remediating the genetic tampering of his creation. The main theme of the bible isn’t about anyone’s salvation. It concerns the vindication of Yahweh’s (Jehovah’s) name and right to rule based on his law by means of the Kingdom (heavenly ruled) arrangement. How many ‘religions’ or ‘scholars’ have communicated this to anyone?

      • Russ Winter, read the story of man, Jesus, the soul, from Edgar Cayce’s point of view.

        It’s the only thing that makes since.

        The latest biography, “Edgar Cayce; An American Prophet” is the best place to start because it has the entire story condensed.
        The information Cayce revealed (assuming it’s true) about Atlantis is the most complete information we have.
        We are the people from Atlantis.

        Read the book and you’ll understand why the old testament is symbolic. Based on true stories but so incorrect that it should be used as a symbolic guide not literally.

        Short version, a soul named Amelius led the other souls into the material world. We got trapped. God could not rescue us from the spirit world it had to be done from within.
        After 32 incarnations Amelius in his 33rd incarnaton as the man we call Jesus embraces the Christ Consciousness (thinking like God, patience, unconditional love, willingness to forgive, …).
        He overcomes the karmic cycle (reincarnation) and sets a pattern for everyone to escape.
        {Rudolph Steiner claimed the “anti-christ”, born in America during the second half of the 20th century, would attempt to use advanced technology to trap us in the material world.}

        The Hebrew played an important role but now by carrying their status beyond the appointed time have become a vehicle for tragedy and evil.

        Another book that you should own in your library is “Lost Secrets of the Sacred Ark” by sir Laurence Gardener.

        Gardener a Scottish Freemason (deceased) explains that the Egyptians and the Hebrew were turning gold into mono atomic form (powdered) by using a high direct current D/C electrical charge.
        The powdered form is a super conductor at room temperature ( he claims). Laurence believed the ark of the covenant was a capacitor (stores an electric charge).
        When powdered gold is placed inside the ark it became incredibly powerful.
        The book contains an amazing amount of history reference the Egyptians and Hebrew including genealogy charts for both groups.

    • I think there is a higher power, I just reject the idea that it is kind and benevolent, because there isn’t a shred of evidence to suggest that. If Yahweh is so kind and caring why does he create a world run by trillionaire psychopaths that dominate humanity while billions of other people on Earth struggle to survive? You Christians can never give a coherent answer to that question, which is why I reject your faith. Christians also cannot explain why we live in a world that REWARD sociopathic behavior rather than punish it. The only answer you guys can give is that these evil men will get theirs in the afterlife, which cannot be scientifically proven. What can be proven is that they do not face punishment on this Earth.

      The creator, obviously, is a piece of shit just like the people he keeps in power. You do not achieve the power and wealth of Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos without some sort of divine backing, for all you know Yahweh and Satan are the same being. I have a Christian friend that tries to convert me but I poke so many wholes in his arguments that there is little he can do, he sent me the Bible and I tossed it in the trash.

      I do not know what is the truth of life on this Earth but I do not believe it is what Christians or Muslims say it is. If there is a God he could have created a world where GOOD MEN rise to the top most of the time instead of evil men but I suspect the world is the way it is to keep mankind in check because if we had good people in charge we would not need a creator in the first place and might ultimately rise to his level. I suspect what Christians call God or Yahweh is probably some sort of Type 7 extremely advanced alien civilization that created us as some sort of experiment. This is hinted at in the Alien films by director Ridley Scott, who seems to know than he lets on and hides truth in fiction.

        • Said to be one of, if not the oldest, Book in The Bible.

          Job.

          Where God Said, verbatim, KJV :

          Job 2:6
          “And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he is in thine hand; but save his life.”

          King James Version (KJV)

          ( Do what You will, just not ALLOWED to kill Him) to paraphrase.

          What You said ?

          ” One thing Christianity gets is there are demons and monsters. ”

          Can’t have just one side of anything, now can we ?

          At the begining of the night, there is but One Unpardonable Sin.

          Feel free to ask algore.

      • The creation story addresses your question. Humanity was gifted free will by the Creator and the first of us used it to choose sin. After, we are all kicked out of The Garden of Eden and made to play the game of life where we choose to follow the fallen angels (devil, demons) or God. If we win the game (follow God) we can end in heaven with Him. If we lose the game, we are damned. It’s a generational curse (I think. Hopefully theologians can correct me if wrong.) where we have been banished and now must prove our worth. It actually can nearly be scientifically proven that the evil doers get theirs. There are plenty of testimonies online from those who were sent into hell during near-death experiences. While not scientific, it cannot be ignored. Add to that, Christianity, especially Roman Catholicism, CAN in fact be proven “scientifically” to be true through a combination of scientifically impossible documented miracles (many for which evidence is still available) and accurately fulfilled prophecy. When this evidence is examined together, it does in fact constitute scientific proof. As for your contention that God could have created a world where good man rise to the top: He did! but it’s not that simple. We are in world of spiritual collectivism. If humanity collectively was holy enough God would not allow the satanists to dominate. It’s collective punishment and collective rewards. We are punished for sin by getting what we deserve for rulers. We all have to work to sanctify each other or we will be punished by evil oppressors ruling over us even in this life. A part of scripture that addresses this is when satan tempts Christ. Worship me and all these kingdoms will be yours. Yeah unfortunately that’s real. The rulers of the world are satan worshipers. During the middle ages in the holy Roman empire, some of the rulers were saints, and society wasn’t evil and oppressive like now.

      • The early Gnostic Christians addressed exactly these points you make, positing a true, all-creating God (later the Father of Christ) and a ‘lower creator’ (demiurge in Greek, and usually associated with the Hebrew ‘Jehova’) who simply entrapped man’s primordial spirit into corrupted, physical bodies that die. In their peculiar, but intriguing, cosmology, the Serpent represented not Satan (which is really what Jehovah the Demiurge was), but rather an early emissary of the Christ spirit, instructing man to reject Jehovah’s prison planet (i.e., the ‘Garden of Eden’). Those early Gnostic Christians, however, were shortly thereafter ruthlessly suppressed by what we might now call ‘mainline’ Christianity, which dogmatically insisted that Christ was the son of Jewish Jehovah, the vary entity worshipped by the Pharisees who had Jesus put on trial and condemned to death for heresy! Look into it …

    • and another one ! Solomon tagged atheists as insane lunatics over 2 millenia ago….great research revealing the satanists…but keep your atheism in your pants…no one cares

  1. Google also hates the Bible. It’s incredible to see the results. As for haaretz, not so much. Especially since it’s a spiritual journey and we test all things. Where we don’t know we have faith. Whenever I question the Bible I go back and read it and it always turns out that I’ve internalized something someone else said. For example, I had it in the back of my mind that Jesus said, I will kiss you with the kisses of my mouth and I was a little uncomfortable till I looked it up and was it was Solomon lol. So yeah, AI hates the Bible and antibible bias is universal and we get Russel brand and the other UN new age celeb clique pretending to be one “Christians”. None of this matters in the least, it’s so much chaff blowing in the wind along with the “rudiments of Babylonian civilization”

  2. The Exodus story was the spun story on the second expulsion of the Hyksos Tribe from Egypt. Hyksos were precursors to the Hebrews. Just like today, Jews twist and spin the truth for their own benefit, this includes outright lies as their Talmud sanctifies lying to Gentiles. The “experts” say the timeline from the bible do not match the two, historically documented, Hyksos Expulsions but at this point, we know most of the “experts” are liars.

    Exodus 12:35-36 :”The Israelites did as Moses instructed and “asked” the Egyptians for articles of silver and gold and for clothing. The Lord “had made” the Egyptians favorably disposed toward the people, and they “gave them” what they asked for; so they plundered the Egyptians.”
    They set Egypt on fire too as the fled. The Jews were never slaves in Egypt, but they did try and enslave the Egyptian people. They were not “allowed to leave” their behinds were kicked out. Even Abraham himself was a scoundrel. He pimped out his own half-sister-wife, Sarah, unbeknownst to the Egyptians, to get his thieving foot in the door of Egypt. All of the bible characters we are supposed to emulate are smarmy.

    A god that takes joy in murdering children is psychopathic.

    There is no context in which this remotely resembles wisdom or love. This historian, bible scholar, published author and former minister, goes into much detail on his channel, to explain the truth about the not so holy book. https://odysee.com/@truthhertzradio:b/The-Hyksos-Occupation-of-Egypt-Part-1:0

  3. Most of what you and I know as “history” is very fake. Herodotus himself was a Phoenician writer of phony history, lies, and promoted fake events like Alex the great (phony), the Persian/Greek wars (also fake) , and kept well hidden the Phoenicians. You wont find any truthful history of the Jews unless you view them as who they truly were and are : Phoenicians. Even the word “Jew” is phony, just a made up name the Phoenicians would invent for themselves, along with fake Jewish history of themselves just to make it appear legit. Of course those old baddies (the Persians) , brought in the Torah because they were Phoenicians as well.

  4. Sorry. But not falling on this antichristian propaganda
    Jesus Christ is God
    He rose from the dead
    Is now sitting at the right hand of YHWH

    • Wrong!
      Jesus was a soul in a human body just like you.
      He embraced the Christ Consciousness and became like God but not God.

      You don’t have a soul. You are a soul. You have a human body as a temporary shell for the soul.

      You the soul, the real you, are an immortal consciousness created by God. Nothing in the universe can harm you.
      Only you can destroy yourself through sin.

  5. Quoting cryptojews like (((Isserlin))) and (((Finklestein))) who don’t believe in or follow the Old Testament tradition — to debunk both the Old and the New. Classic blunder. Bravo.

    • Is there archeological or historical evidence for these tall tales claimed in the Old Testament or not? The answer is no. The blunder is going totally with unfounded faith alone.

      • Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good testimony. By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.
        Hebrews 11:1-6 NKJV

          • Russ, these people are hopeless. No matter how much evidence you show them that the Bible is false, all they can do is regurgitate what they have been taught. Notice that all they do is quote scripture, they never provide any evidence to counter what you are saying.

            A lot of these people are conspiracy believers, but still they have been duped and cannot see it. A lot of them will vote for Trump in November and then as soon as he gets into office he will betray them again, break all his campaign promises and turn the USA into a Zionist police state just like you predicted.

            The difference between me and Christians/Muslims is that I recognize that my beliefs may be wrong. I am always willing to change my beliefs when new evidence comes in showing it. But these people will never change their beliefs no matter how much evidence shows they are wrong, and this is one of the many reasons I reject all organized religion.

            • Fatima 1917: a miracle was promised for October 13, several months in advance. 70,000 people gathered in Portugal to witness the scientifically impossible, Miracle of the Sun. Miracle and prophecy put together: how do you explain it, except God is real and it’s all true? Science can still not reproduce the miracle that occurred that day. again, 70,000 people attested to it. No one is denying it.

              • It also occurred just before the October/November Revolution. The two events are, probably, linked.

            • What you’ve written here tells me that you are probably further along the path to the true Creator than most of the self-described ‘Christians’ nowadays, who have sadly fallen for yet more Judaizing heresies of various sorts — there have been so many of those in the two millennia since the destruction of ‘Solomon’s’ temple around 70 AD. Organized religion is and always has been a scam created and perpetuated by the Illuminati and their predecessors in order to heard man (the ‘sheeple’) towards their fake apocalypse (which is occurring now). The minute any church/mosque/temple tells you that you are not free to use your God-given powers of reason to analyze your world and your history, feel free to get up and walk right out, shaking the dust off your feet. On the Day of Judgement, as Jesus would say, it shall go better for Sodom and Gomorrah than for them!

          • Russ Winter, I have no choice but to reference Edgar Cayce and Rudolph Steiner because I have no other sources for this information.

            The famous book (still in print) “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill is the secular version of this topic, “faith”.

            Choose a worthwhile achievable goal. Have complete faith that you will succeed. Work hard towards that goal. And the universe has no choice but to allow you to succeed.
            The ‘faith’ that you will succeed is the key.

            Jesus symbolically used the example of the faith of a mustard seed and “the mountain must move”.

            Because we are Consciousness is the reason it works that way.
            Consciousness is first cause the physical is the result.
            Thoughts are things.
            Thoughts are powerful.
            So be careful what you have in your thoughts.

            Cayce said prayer is the most powerful force in the universe.
            One man praying could save a city. 12 men praying together could save a nation.

            The elites use these same principles to access that power through occult practices.

            Trump according to Glenn Beck (and others) follows these practices.
            The author of “The Power of Positive Thinking”, Norman Vincent Peale, reportedly was a preacher at Trump’s family church.

            Think of us as a avatars ( souls in human bodies) in the ultimate virtual reality machine symbolized as “The Garden of Eden” (Earth).
            We are conscious spiritual beings having a material experience and need these magnificent human bodies to interact in the material world.
            And that’s why “faith” is real.

            How’s your talking monkey suit holding up?

              • Russ, you ridiculed the concept of “faith” as if it’s a fairytale for the peasants. Or to quote Marx “religion is opium for the masses”.
                During the late 1800’s there was a movement to eliminate the sacraments from Catholicism.
                Rudolph Steiner defended the practice, claiming that if the sacraments were eliminated the religion would faulter, and religion is needed as a guide for the soul (or so he claimed).

                Cayce claimed that most people need “rote routine” for a religion.

                The “talking monkey suit” reference was to point out that the human body that you are in will grow old and eventually die.
                And for many it will be a like a wrinkled leather sack sitting in a nursing home.
                Is that all that we are?

                So which religion is correct?
                None of them?

                Is religion the problem?

                Your wife and daughters have car problems in a bad neighborhood. They take a shortcut through a dark alley to safety.
                Just in front of them a door opens. Large black men holding something in their hands exit the building. A sign lights up above the door, “Bible Study”.

                African author Jonas E. Alexis is considered a Christian apologist. He is known for arguing with Jews about Judaism vs Christianity.
                He studied the history of the Catholic Church with the intent of writing a book critical of Catholicism.
                He said he was surprised to find out that wherever the church went life generally got better for the community not worse.

                Edgar Cayce was asked, “Who is Israel?”.
                He replied.
                “All of us. The collective souls of mankind. We are Israel.”
                The Cayce version of Jesus has God, through Amelius (Jesus), trying to save all of us.
                “No soul left behind.”

                The Jews have a version where only they (18 million souls) are Israel (God’s people).

                Sir Laurence Gardener (author) asked 3 of Europe’s top rabbi’s for the definition of Israel.
                He got 3 slightly different definitions.
                Is-Ra-El
                Basically, Those who submit to El Shaddai.

                Would the world be a better place without Christianity, as distorted as it is?
                Was paganism better?

                Jesus summed it up as “love each other as I have loved you”.
                What part should we reject?
                There’s nothing in Christianity that would require us to tolerate mass immigration, porn, transgenderism, unconditional support for Israel, … .
                Israel is a nation state predicated on the rejection of Jesus Christ.

                Jesus rejected Judaism and the Jews had him killed. That’s the story in the gospels.

                Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.

                • Straw man fallacy argument. Is it a requirement of the faith that one believe every tall tale and myth that comes down the pike? I don’t think so and it can be scrutinized.

                  • Russ, if you want the best argument ever made that the story of Jesus is myth, Jordan Maxwell had it posted at his website some years ago. He died recently.
                    Before he posted it he said that he had never posted it publicly because it is just too much for the average Christian to process.
                    And he earned a living through selling his books and DVDs to mostly Christians (by default).

                    As you read it you instantly realize that this is a dangerous document for the Catholic Church and would have led to a quick death in the past.

                    I was sort of immunized (IMHO) from already reading the Rudolph Steiner material about “Jesus” and Christianity.
                    Steiner died around 1925, but gave a rebuttal to the Jordan Maxwell material 100 years earlier.

                    Some things cannot be proven from a material point of view.
                    You cannot prove that you love your child, wife, mother. There’s no “material” test. But we all believe it because we’ve all experienced love ourselves.

                    According to Cayce some spiritual concepts cannot be understood from a material perspective (filtered through a human brain). It’s like trying to explain the concept of color to someone born blind. There’s no reference.

                    If anybody can find that Jordan Maxwell post arguing that the story of Jesus is myth. Please post a link. He did his homework.

                    Alledgididly in 1996 a Russian entrepreneur, Vladimir Megre, met a beautiful woman in the Siberian forest, named Anastasia.
                    He wrote a series of 9 books that she supposedly dictated for the Russian people.
                    Short version: She wants the Russian people to avoid the materialsm of the West particularly eating processed commercial food.

                    In book 6, “The Book of Kin” Anastasia advises every family to maintain there own history book to prevent the elites from changing history.

                    In book 6, chapter 6(?), Anastasia’s grandfather, out of nowhere (first mention of Jews), tells Vladimir Megre a story about an Egyptian priest.
                    6 Egyptian priests come up with a plan to rule all people.
                    One priest takes the dregs of society out into the wilderness for 2 generations, 40 years. When they emerge they have a completely new identity.
                    They are God’s chosen people and the Egyptian priest is called Moses.

                    This is one hell of a story, 2400 pages, and most of it impossible to verify (sound familiar).

      • I believe you on that and you’re making a good point. Definitely curious on what’s up with the lack of evidence for these old testament stories, but there’s too much evidence for more recent Christian history to change my mind about the truth of Christianity. Would like to understand though what’s going on with those sections of the OT.

  6. First Hyksosian Occupation: Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Tell your brothers, ‘Do this: Load your animals and return to the land of Canaan, and bring your father and your families back to me. I will give you the best of the land of Egypt and you can enjoy the fat of the land.’ Genesis 45:17-18
    Yet the bible would have us believe the Hebrews were the victims of the Egyptians.
    Genesis 45: 17-18
    Isn’t that how they always work it? Worm their way into the seat of power and then bring in their fellow tribe members to take completely over?

  7. Everyone of us has a spiritual connection to the creator. I suggest try using it and stop believing the thousands of years of “its safe and effective” characters. These are the same perpetrators that now spell your name 10 different ways in capital letters, stole all of grandpa’s gold in the 1930’s. You want a connection with God, make it yourself and stop putting your faith in horseshit.

    And if you really feel brave, try this.

  8. Wait, are you trying to tell me that the jews wrote a book, and in the book they also just happen to be the chosen ones by God to rule over the rest of mankind?
    ….Amazin’
    Now you know why some of the best writers in Hollywood are jewish…always good at spinning a tall tale.

    • Well I think calling themselves chosen people is their alibi for the ill reputation and conduct they’ve demonstrated in modern times…

  9. I’m glad that you point out that no biblical texts ever gives those fake “historical” events a mention. The stories of Alex the great , Caesar maybe, and other fantasies , including the personality Jesus C were all written years and years, centuries later. Written by paid historians and propagandists, like Herodotus. It’s no different than it is today, where lies upon lies and distortions are laid on you from everywhere. Such things are not mentioned by biblical texts because those were made up.

  10. There is the Arch of Titus, built by the brother of Titus, showing the Romans carrying off the spoils of war from Jerusalem in 70 A.D. There is definitely an account given in history books about the actual destruction of Jerusalem: thus there was something great there to be destroyed. I do acknowledge that you are referring to the first temple but that was destroyed by Babylon and Assyria.

    The point that you can’t find anything extra Biblical alluding to it that wasn’t written by Jews is unlikely. Many Greeks were followers of Judaism at the time and made trips to Jerusalem. Regarding ancient Israel you have an Assyrian account of Sennacheribs siege of Jerusalem. It’s a great read.

    If Alexander the Great wasn’t real then who spread Koine Greek to the furthest regions of the middle east? Traders I suppose you would say…

    What about all of the little things that are extra biblical that corroborate the Bible? Jordan’s Petra, fossils in locations that can only be a world flood, the Egyptian civilization, etc.

    The reality is this. I have talked to many agnostics amd atheists and it always comes down to good vs evil and Satan vs. God. Satan has crafted a parallel narrative that tries confuse people in every scenario. The flood has non biblical flood accounts in folk lore for example, but God gave us His rainbow!!! (Beat that Satan!) God tells us what happened in Egypt and Satan confuses with the Hyksos. Maybe the Egyptians by law required a false narrative to make their kingdom look powerful in the aftermath of defeat? I can also add that the Bible is extremely congruent. The best writer in the world today could not write a book that size and it be so well constructed. Itis God’s words to mankind.

    • Straw man argument – The only thing I can say is “English MF do you speak it?

      I specifically addressed the issue of Solomon’s Temple (so called First Temple) and that period (800-900 BC). I made no further claims other than to note many key historical figures don’t turn up in the OT. Titus was post OT. Greeks showed up in Jerusalem in numbers well after the Captivity.

      Even the Sennacherib account in the OT is bogus. Yes the Assyrians invaded Judah about 700 BC. Though the biblical narrative holds that divine intervention by an angel ended the Assyrian siege of Jerusalem by destroying the Assyrian army, an outright defeat is unlikely as Hezekiah submitted to Sennacherib at the end of the campaign. Contemporary records, even those written by Assyria’s enemies, do not mention the Assyrians being defeated at Jerusalem

      Of course there is archeological evidence for some aspects of the later period of OT, just not for what I addressed or the period I addressed.

      Straw man Fallacy:
      This fallacy occurs when your opponent over-simplifies or misrepresents your argument (i.e., setting up a “straw man”) to make it easier to attack or refute. Instead of fully addressing your actual argument, speakers relying on this fallacy present a superficially similar — but ultimately not equal — version of your real stance.

    • “I do acknowledge that you are referring to the first temple but that was destroyed by Babylon and Assyria.”

      That’s precisely the point of the article: there is no archaeological or historical evidence that any such temple ever existed BEFORE the end of the Babylonian Captivity. The temple foundations (the actual structure was dismantled by the Romans after 70 AD) that have been found date to approximately the 6th century BC, after the return of the Israelite clergy from Babylon.

      “If Alexander the Great wasn’t real then who spread Koine Greek to the furthest regions of the middle east?”

      Indeed, at one point, there were Alexandrian (i.e., Seleucid) kingdoms as far east as Bactria, on the present-day border of Afghanistan with Tajikistan! But for the record, Alexander the Great is never even mentioned in the Bible — at least not by any readily identifiable name.

      “What about all of the little things that are extra biblical that corroborate the Bible? Jordan’s Petra, fossils in locations that can only be a world flood, the Egyptian civilization, etc.”

      All attested by numerous ancient sources apart from — and often before (in the case of the Great Flood) — the Bible. And notice that nowhere in his article does Russell question any of those events or places.

      “The flood has non biblical flood accounts in folk lore for example, but God gave us His rainbow!!”

      OK, so you’re now conceding the point about the Great Flood? That’s progress! But was there any ancient civilization that actually denied the existence of rainbows? At any rate, all the ancient tongues probably had words for ‘rainbow’ — in the specific cases of Greek and Latin, I know that for a fact. They associated the rainbow with the Greek goddess ‘Iris,’ whom they considered to be another messenger of the gods (similar to Hermes).

  11. I don’t think you can claim straw man here Russ 😆. Your title says: is the Old Testament a myth or made up. I am addressing several of your points spot on.

    The account of Sennacherib’s siege that I was referring to was an Assyrian account. You can go find it. It’s also in the scriptures as you talked about but there is an Assyrian account.

    Is there another book of “fiction” that has caused the world to be this upset? I have never seen debates, textual critics, and councils set up to debate any other book of “fiction.” Is it so obviously fiction or does man’s sin harden his heart to truth? Paul said the scriptures are folly to the Greeks and a stumbling block to the Jews.

    1 Corinthians
    20.Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
    21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
    22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
    23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
    24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
    25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

    One last point, in my opinion denying the Bible as reputable causes problems of logic when exposing international organized Jewry. The Bible is an invaluable source on why the Jews do what they do. If you don’t examine their lifestyles through the Bible then why not come to the conclusions that most people do? That is the conclusion that Jews are just very smart and successful. I am driven to expose Jewry because of many principles in the Bible like Paul says they are against humanity and are trying to keep the Gentiles from hearing the Gospel. (they never stopped doing this!)

    • Again I ask, “English do you speak it?”

      The title of the post was posed as a question with a clear question mark. It was not a declarative statement. The post itself did probe into specific elements of the OT that demonstrate mythical aspects. I made declarative statements about those aspects but not necessarily the OT in it’s entirety.

      Proper debate style without fallacious arguments would ask that you address those aspects.

      Your comment about Sennacherib and the Assyrians is fair game and of interest. I responded that the biblical account of this historical event was bogus as well in that it claimed more miracle Hebrew victories that were unconfirmed by actual history. I don’t see that you refuted my rebuttal.

    • “The Bible is an invaluable source on why the Jews do what they do. If you don’t examine their lifestyles through the Bible then why not come to the conclusions that most people do?”

      There’s a lot of truth to that, I’ll certainly concede! But the Old Testament is hardly the only source we have of the behavior of the Jews! What if aspects of the Jewish scripture were simply an ancient form of predictive programming, used to make the Jews “do what they do”? Sadly, such techniques work on us Goyim, too! Beware, for example, of the ‘apocalypse’ scam, which is being perpetrated by the Illuminati even as we speak.

    • “What if aspects of the Jewish scripture were simply an ancient form of predictive programming, used to make the Jews “do what they do”? Sadly, such techniques work on us Goyim, too! Beware, for example, of the ‘apocalypse’…”

      That’s good stuff.

      If that’s true then the Jews would be born into the most intense system of indoctrination imaginable. A mixed race group of mutts, who have practiced inbreeding for generations, conned into believing they are God’s chosen little dandelions.

      It brings up several lines of inquiry.
      What if whoever created the “Jewish diaspora” (which is basically a weapon), died along time ago and now the “creation” is on auto pilot? Like Frankenstein the monster outliving Dr. Frankenstein the creator?

      Create a script for the peasants to believe in. The monster (Jewish Diaspora) gets their own huge nation, Eretz Israel, the anti-christ comes and sits in Jerusalem, Jesus comes back and has Scotty beam all the Christians up to heaven.

      If Jesus does not come back, everybody is screwed.

      I think that goes along with Nick Fuentes recently saying, “The gentiles are so f…ing stupid, I’m thinking of switching sides.”

      Yossi Gurvitz, born in Israel and trained in Yeshiva School. He came to believe that Talmudic Judaism is evil. He, like Nick Fuentes, believes the Christian Evangelicals are just too stupid to help.

      His video, “When Israel is Mighty” is a MUST view. I believe he died not long after making this video.

      You’ll have to search for the video. It’s easy to find:

      “When Israel is Mighty” by
      Yossi Gurvitz

  12. Russ leaves no stone unturned, we’ll give him that. David Duke has been talking a lot lately about how the Old Testament is full of Jewish influence whereas the New Testament is the New Covenant and Jesus threw away the idea of genealogical lineage which is what the Jews base their chosen-ness on up to the present day (no inter-marriage!). Christianity is about equal treatment for everyone: love, kindness, decency.

    • Well put. And I would also add : the notion that modern-day Jews are even of the same ‘lineage’ as the ancient Israelites is itself completely unproven, potentially making modern Judaism false on two accounts!

  13. The Old Testament was written after the New Testament by the jews in a sneaky attempt to tie the two together. To defile the New Christian Church and Jesus to the Deranged jews who were always worshipers of SATAN, the entire bullshit ancestry of Jesus in the Old Testament is FAKE, going back to David and all the other evil jewish cannibal elites like Solomon, all belong to the darkness of HELL. They made it all up. Now the Popes wear tiny hats and scriptures from the book of satan the old testament are recited in the Catholic Church Mass. It is sickening. First of all everything that is lauded as good in that wretched book is actually evil. The jews believe evil is good and good is evil. They are the spawn of satan and exactly like him. Even Martin Luther spoke out saying the jews were always rewriting the Bible, that is what jews do. They control gentiles with LIES.

  14. Good point. Only in their belief is there an actual lineage but they abide by that kooky ideology. In reality there is all sorts of inter mixing throughout the centuries. We all know about the controversies regarding Ashkenazi and Sephardic; I heard only 3 percent of Israelis have actual “Hebrew” blood line and as Duke points out the Jews were part of a major regional group in ancient times (the name escapes me at the moment) of which many various Middle Eastern peoples descended. Of course, the term “anti Semitic” was a Jewish invention to trick the goyim but most Jews are not of Semitic origin, as noted, and as we all know the Palestinians are the real Semites (a language group)! Jimmy Dore reported recently that the real number of Palestinians murdered by the Chosenites is 680,000 in the latest genocide against them by USrael. And so it goes… (Kurt Vonnegut)

  15. I questioned why Esther is in the Bible and why modern women are encouraged to emulate Esther. I mean all she did was ask the man who she was sleeping with to spare her and her people, which of course any woman in that situation would do. I don’t see her as a heroine. We see modern women all around us asking their husbands, boyfriends, etc. for favor. And that is the conclusion that I have come to about the old testament. We can still see people today doing the same things that are described in the old testament. We can still see the crime syndicate described in the old testament operating in the world today. The purpose of the old testament is to describe how even if you are called chosen by God, that humans invariably turn their backs on God and, in so doing, defy their purpose for existence which is to be with God. It is then up to each individual to choose to be reconciled to God through Christ. The old testament describes falling away from God while the new testament describes redemption but it is up to the individual to accept the free gift of salvation and not up to a race or group of people. I think the proof that the people described in the old testament were true is simply by looking around you to see how reprehensible humans are and that we are all in need of a savior.

  16. Imagine the jews somehow persuaded christians to pray and believe in a false god named Jesus or Yahweh, when in reality those names are of the evil one? The “bible” was “translated” from Greek scriptures to Hebrew while the jews were held prisoner in Babylonia. The jews again “translated” from Hebrew to English and produced many versions since. And every once in a while they contrive some type of evidence supporting their stories and lies, like the dead sea scrolls.

    Doing a small amount of research, the bible states the last words of Jesus were? “Forgive them father, for they know not what they have done”. Reading a direct translation from the Greek scriptures to English, you would notice one word moved. In Greek, Jesus said “Forgive them NOT father, for they know what they have done”. The entire book is riddled with lies and deception so Christians will pity and sympathize for the worlds deceivers. Shame on you for devoting so much effort praying to a false entity you do not know or fail to find the truth.

    • Rex, wait until you hear what Rudolph Steiner had to say about where “wisdom”, “progress”, came from.

      Steiner was born with what we today would call psychic abilities. He was called a “seer”.
      He claimed he could access the “Akashik Records”, a record of all human activities.
      Steiner was raised in a small Austrian village and mentored by a Catholic priest with access to a very good library.
      He came to believe that the story of Jesus Christ was metaphor based on earlier and similar stories of a sun god born to a virgin.
      Once he could “see” the Akashik Records, Steiner was stunned to discover that the crucification happened as described.
      Steiner said the dark spiritual entities (bad guys?) thought that once they killed Jesus they would prevent him from succeeding. When he died they instantly realized they had made a mistake and it was checkmate.

      Steiner claimed that another “super sensible man” had been born in China around 2,000 years before Jesus.
      He gave the luciferian wisdom to mankind.
      And 2,000 years after Jesus another “super sensible” man will be born in the second half of the 20th century in America. The Catholic Church calls this man the anti-christ. The Jews call him Moshiach Ben David, their Messiah (not Trump) but soon.

      Steiner gave this lecture in Switzerland, 1919. It is translated from 19th century German and contains esoteric spiritual concepts so can be difficult to follow. Not the Sunday School version of Christianity:
      https://rsarchive.org/Lectures/AhrDec_index.html

  17. Biblical scholars and theologians have argued about these points regarding translations for centuries. So your point is well taken, however can you prove that Jews were the primary translators of the Bible from one language to another? I have never heard that especially regarding the New Testament. In your second paragraph you claim that Jesus’ last words were mistranslated. Do you have non Jew sources for such a powerful claim? I remember a Jewish friend of mine claimed that Jesus was just one of many loony prophets running around at the time. So it is easy to dismiss things that happened so long ago, depending on what truth or version of events you wish to believe.

    Btw, here is a great video that debunks the Darwinian ideology, not necessarily debunks evolutionary theory (it is just a theory that cannot be duplicated according to the scientific method); nor is it proof of God. But very interesting I did not know what lousy scholar Darwin was. Turns out Aristotle and Kant were the ones that offered irrefutable arguments in favor of morality as the basis for ontology and epistemology. Without morality everything becomes absurd (as the world seems today).

    Interesting, to ramble on, How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization by Thomas Woods, all you have to do is read the first couple chapters to see how that is convincingly true from both contributions to education, farming and industry aside from moral issues. What is the weak point in this truth of history is that if God gave humans the ability to base science and technology on spirituality, how did we get into such a pickle with AI etc. and WWIII on the horizon today?

    • Rex, I think it was David Wilcock that believed several of the Great books were written by the ‘elites” for lack of a better term.
      Charles Darwin’s book was one of them.

      Wilcock also believed that “The Wealth of Nation’s ” by Adam Smith was a fabricated work to mislead sovereign nations about the inherit value of gold.

      Wilcock alledgididly blew his brains out in 2025. George Norrie host’s the world’s largest talk radio show Coast to Coast AM. Norie was once asked who was the smartest guest he’d ever interviewed. He said he believed it was probably David Wilcock.

      Wilcock has a free digital book on his website in the free book section titled, “Financial Tyranny”.
      It has unique information about the central banking system. His chapter on the history of Freemasonry is the best information I have seen on that subject.

      His published books (about 4) are the best of their kind. Hidden information on all topics from the pyramids to antigravity propulsion.

      The digital book about the financial system, “Financial Tyranny”, has information no other book has (that I’m aware of.)
      Navigate to book section:
      Divinecosmos.com

      • Rex, this is a direct link to the digital format book, “Financial Tyranny:…” By David Wilcock.
        I could not access the full book.

        Around 3 days before David Wilcock alledgididly shot himself his biographer died while writing his biography.

        Wilcock claimed that he was told the most important secret the elites protect is the truth about the Central Banking system.
        Iran, I believe, is the last holdout, refusing to join the system.

        David Rogers Web has a 1 hour video (and book) titled “The Great Taking”.
        It’s about the new system they are planning with digital money.
        Web claims that the current military in the West would not be possible without printing money (deficit spending) disguised as borrowing from our grandchildren.
        This is a must watch video if you haven’t seen it.
        “The Great Taking”.

        This is the direct link to Wilcock’s “Financial Tyranny:…”
        Wilcock covers the concept of predictive programming. His example is the Jewish music industry promoting gangster rap.
        Related to the Jewish Frankfurt School from Germany that fled to Columbia University when Hitler came to power.
        They believed that whatever music you could make popular for young people would define the culture within 20 years.

  18. I should point out (if anyone cares) that when I wrote “good point” above I should have written it as a direct reply since some other comment got stuck in there from someone (some Mossad bot?) about the Bible being all BS etc. Anyway, I was replying to Digital Samizdat and not Gemma. If you are going to make huge claims about the Old Testament being written AFTER the New Testament bring along a lot of scholarly citations please. Otherwise it is obvious nonsense meant to disrupt, not inform.

    • “If you are going to make huge claims about the Old Testament being written AFTER the New Testament bring along a lot of scholarly citations please.”

      Okay.
      According to the story Ptolomy(sp?) had around 30 rabbis set up on an island off of Alexandria, Egypt and put the old testament together on paper around 300 AD.
      From the fantastic book, “Justinian’s Flea”.
      (About a plague during the time of Justinian. Highly recommended for the history of the era. Reads like a novel.)

      Apparently the original did not have any references to modern day Israel with borders that would include most of the oil reserves in the Middle East and the Suez Canal (Eretz Israel).

      Again, “apparently” the new and improved version (from the Jews’ point of view) that includes Eretz Israel was fabricated by many different rabbis centuries after the story of Jesus.
      This (supposedly) was added to the King James Version around the 1600’s.

      https://jamesperloff.net/an-overlooked-bible-controversy-septuagint-vs-masoretic-text/

  19. I recently discovered the work of Russell Gmirkin through the French writer Laurent Guyenot. Gmirkin’s thorough and scholarly research indicates that the Pentateuch was developed and written about the same time as the Septuagint from sources in the Library of Alexandria in 273-272 BCE.

    Gmirkin’s books are expensive, but I found PDFs of his three books in archives online.

    Here are links to Guyenot’s substack articles summarizing Gmirkin’s work in four parts.
