Talk:Ahmose I/Comments

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Was this actually the pharaoh that Moses dealt with,as stated in the History Channels Decoding the Exodus?

There is no historical or archaeological evidence for Moses, and a number of Biblical scholars now believe that Judaism developed in Canaan and that the Exodus did not take place.--Doug Weller (talk) 19:25, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Is the Hebrew translation of Ahmose really (Brother of Moses)?

In Egyptian, 'Mose', 'Moses', 'Mes' etc. means 'son of' refA Structuralist Exercise: The Problem of Moses' Name Michael P. Carroll American Ethnologist, Vol. 12, No. 4 (Nov., 1985), pp. 775 and 'Ah' is a common part of Egyptian royal names referring to the moon god Iah. ref Shaw, Ian, The Oxford History of Ancient Egypt, Oxford University Press, 2003, page 209 ref

Hebrew didn't exist at the time of Ahmose, I'm not sure that is the right question.--Doug Weller (talk) 10:17, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

What is the hebrew translation of Kamose , Ahmose's older brother and was his name changed?

See above. When he took the throne he took, as usual, a throne name, which was Wadj-kheper-re--Doug Weller (talk) 10:17, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

Where might I be able to see a picture of the golden artifact in the greek museum depicting the ark of the covenant?

I have found pictures showing the parting of the sea there,National Archaeological Museum of Athens Greece.(online)

Will most of the text of this dynasty need changed to reflect the findings found in the

 ( Decoding of the Exodus )?

Um, no it won't, since that's not a particularly good source... for anything... Thanatosimii 17:52, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
