Reshep "Il Toro del cielo" (dio egizio di origine semitica,sposo della dea,anch' essa semitica,Qadesh)



(....)RSP/Reshap is a reference to Mars. But as noted, a reference to a
planet is awkward with any significance to an eclipse event,
especially since the zodiac house is far more fundamental. So the
question is whether or not Reshep is an appropriate reference to the
zodiac house this eclipse occurs in, which is Taurus.

Please understand that, indeed, Reshep could be a reference to Mars
and still be a reference to Taurus. Gods and goddesses identified
with both constellations as well as planets, as in the case of VIRGO,
the virgin mother goddess also being associated with Venus. But
given a clear-cut choice between a casual planetary association
rather than the zodiac house of occurrence, Reshep is far more
fundamental as a reference to TAURUS.

It is thus after the fact when comparing the imagery of Reshep, its
associations in the Egyptian pantheon and the general concept of the
god in comparison to the imagery, associations and titles of Taurus
that we find consistent overlapping. For instance, the title used
for Reshep in Hyksos-period Egypt was "Lord of Heaven" which is the
title of Taurus which was also "Lord of Heaven" only translated
as "Bull of Heaven." Lord, which is Bel/Baal also means bull. So
the precise title alone associates Reshep with the bull of heaven.

There is also iconography of Reshep via his Syrian crown combined
with the tassel of a bull and a bull's head in some of the Egyptian
iconography that is a direct association between Taurus or the "Bull
of Heaven" and Reshep as the angry god. So it would not be at all a
surprise if at Ugarit Reshep was used as a designation of Taurus.
Reshep was considered a bull and so there's a natural connection.(.......)

Bull-headed god seated on a Winged Sphinx throne (understood by some scholars to be a Cherubbim throne), with raised hand for a benediction/blessing, staff in other hand. Incense burned before him. He wears the White crown of Pharaoh with a tassel, rather like the crown worn by the Late Bronze Age god Reshep (a Syrian war-god, whose names may mean "burning," as in fever, a god of plague).

Reshep The Syrian War Go



Reshep (Rahshaf, Rasap, Rashap, Resep, Reshef, Reshpu) was a Syrian plague and war god whose worship in Egypt dates from around the Eighteenth Dynasty. Because of his martial skills, he was closely associated with the pharaoh in battle. Amenhotep II established a stelae near the Sphinx at Giza depicting Reshep and Astarte watch over him as he prepares his horses for war. However, he could also use his skills to protect the common people from disease. In particular, he was thought to be able to repell the "akha" demon who was thought to cause stomach pains.

Resheph was often considered to be the husband of Qadesh (another goddess imported from Syria) and the father of Min. However, he is also described as the husband of Itum in connection with his power to control disease. He was linked to Set because they were both associated with the antelope, but he was also associated with the Theban war god Montu. The Greeks associated him with Apollo and to the Vedic Rudra. He was also associated with the Babylonian death god Nergal and ocassionally with Mars (again because of the military connection).

He was known thoughout the ancient near east and Egypt as Reshep-Shulman. However, he also had specific epithets in different locations. The Phoenicians referred to him as "Reshep gen" (Resheph of the Garden) and "bal chtz"('lord of the arrow') while the Hittites described him as a "deer god" or "gazelle god". In Egypt he was known as "Lord of the Sky" or "Lord of Eternity" and an area of the Nile valley was renamed the "Valley of Reshep". It is thought that his name originally derived from the hebrew for "flame" or "plague". Reshep was depicted as a man with a Syrian style beard brandishing a mace or axe above his head. He generally wears the crown of Upper Egypt with the addition of a gazelle skull at the front and a ribbon at the back.

KTU 1.78 dates Akhenaton/Exodus to 1386BCE

(....)a more responsible reading for this reference would simply be the
particulars of an eclipse event that occurred between 5am and 6am with the
sun rising in Taurus.

If we presume that perhaps the surface of this text was charred because the
text was out either drying or perhaps on some table under current
consideration and the fire that caused this was the same one mentioned to
Akhenaton in his 12th year, which is reasonable though not the only
explanation, then you potentially have a circumstantial marker for the 12th
of Akhenaton in the only eclipse date possible which is 1375BCE. This is the
year an ecilpse occurred during sunrise between 5am and 6am and the only
eclipse that does so.

Based upon the SBT (strict Biblical timeline) which uses extensive Biblical
reference for a timeline that ignores all conflicting extra-Biblical
references (ala "The Romance of Biblical Chronology" by Martin Anstey), the
Exodus is dated to 1386BCE based upon the 19th jubilee from 455BCE which
dates the 1st of Cyrus (Martin Anstey proposed that the Persian Period was
82 years too long, 357BCE455BCE for first of Cyrus). Jubilees are every 49
years; 49 x 19=931+455=1386). This means that Akhenaton's first year
(1375+11=1386BC) falls at the time of the Exodus. Considering this and
placing Akhenaton in the context of the king that ruled after the Exodus we
note a few interesting things.

1. He was not the first-born son, so would not have died.

2. He dismissed all the gods of Egypt as "worthless" which was part of the
intent of the ten plagues. One of the Ten Commandments required outlawing
the worship of any other gods.

3. He focussed on a new, single god, represented by light but refused to
make an image of the god, which was one of the ten commandments, not to make
an image of YHWH.

4. Akhenaton had a phobi of darkness, but not simple darkness, complete
darkness in the absence of artificial light. Night is not that fearful if
you have a torch so why the panic? During the three days of darkness though,
no artificial light was possible so it was total darkness which is a basis
for the fear factor of being in the dark without any light that Akhenaton
wrote about and thus focussed on Aten being a God of light versus darkness.

5. Further, the usual dating for Akhenaton is around this general time
period anyway and he would have become along with his father Amenhotep III
the pharoahsof the Exodus with the Biblical timeline dating the Exodus in
1386BCE. The eclipse only improves his chronology by moving his first year
by a mere 8 years.
