The Ancient Egyptians & Israelites

Ethnic Makeup of the Ancient Egyptians, Israelites, and Hyksos Ethnic Makeup of the Ancient Egyptians, Israelites, and Hyksos A comparative look at the peoples of the Nile and the Levant in the New Kingdom period (18th–19th Dynasties). Ethnic Makeup of the Ancient Egyptians The Egyptians of the New Kingdom (ca. 1550–1189 BC) were primarily a Northeast African population rooted in the Nile Valley. Their features reflected a mixture of indigenous Saharan, Nubian, and Nile Delta ancestry. Genetic studies of royal mummies and skeletal remains reveal a population connected to both Sub-Saharan Africa and the ancient Near East, consistent with Egypt’s geographic position as a crossroads of Africa and Asia. Royal families often intermarried with foreign princesses to cement alliances. For example, Amenhotep III married women from Mitanni and later Ramesses II married Hittite royalty. This resulted in foreign admixture at the highest levels of society, though the g...

The Time Warp Model

Time-Warp Model: Genesis Days → Cosmic Time

Time-Warp Model — Genesis “Days” → Cosmic Time

This page shows the fitted mathematical mapping we built to align the six Genesis “days” (as ordered epochs) with modern cosmic history. It preserves the biblical order while mapping each day to scientific waypoints (Earth formation, Cambrian, humans, etc.).

The model (in plain language)

We treat Genesis day index s (1 → 6) as the input and map it to cosmic time T(s) measured in Gigayears after the Big Bang. The mapping is monotonic and tunable so it preserves sequence while stretching/shrinking durations to match scientific anchors.

Equation:
T(s) = 13.8 · ( s^p / ( s^p + Ï„^p ) )   [Gyr after Big Bang]
Best-fit parameters
p3.210   |   Ï„ (tau)1.87133758   |   Ymax = 13.8 Gyr
Interpretation

With these parameters, the model front-loads cosmic time so the early, formative cosmic/planetary epochs occupy the earlier Genesis indices, while biological diversification and humans map to later Genesis “days.”

Anchors used for fitting

Each anchor pairs a Genesis day index with a scientific waypoint (Gyr after Big Bang).

Fitted curve & anchors (interactive)

Hover over anchor dots to see labels. X axis = Genesis day index (0–6). Y axis = cosmic time in Gyr since Big Bang (0 → 13.8).

Equation: T(s)=13.8·s^p/(s^p+Ï„^p)
p = 3.210
Ï„ = 1.87133758

Notes: this is a modeling tool — anchors and parameters can be adjusted to explore alternate fits. The mapping is monotonic (order preserved) and intentionally front-loaded so early cosmology gets mapped to early Genesis indices.

References & context: This model is illustrative: parameters were fit to a chosen anchor set (CMB transparency, Earth formation, early life, GOE, Cambrian, humans). It offers a way to reconcile sequence while leaving room for scientific durations.

The End is Near Part 1: End Of The Age

Where Are We on the Biblical Timeline? Where Are We on the Biblical Timeline? Understanding time, prophecy, and God’s big picture plan in light of Scripture and history. The Big Framework 2 Peter 3:8 says that “with the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.” Many Bible students take this to mean that human history unfolds in a pattern of seven thousand-year “days” that parallel the seven days of creation. Six days of human labor and history, followed by a seventh “Sabbath day” of rest — the millennial reign of Christ. Where Are We Now? According to the Hebrew calendar, the year is currently 5785 (as of 2025). If the calendar is accurate, humanity is approaching the close of the sixth “day.” That would place us near the threshold of the seventh millennium, often associated with the reign of Christ on Earth. The Margin of Error Here’s where it gets interesting. Scholars and historians...

Fake News (It's Deeper Than Donald Trump)

Shalom, family. If there is one undeniable thing to credit to the current President of the United States it's his ability to make a headline, be it "good" or "bad". America is hypnotically polarized between idol gazing or hate watching his every move. He is never short of a quotable one-liner or catchphrase that becomes meme-worthy material.  One particular Trump-ism that seemed to stick in this cultural & political climate is "fake news." And while many of us use it ironically, I can't help but acknowledge the timing of this catchphrase as spiritually significant. A hallmark of the current age. What do I mean by that? Well, for you saints who are into eschatology (end-times prophecy) you are probably already aware of the discussions that are being held in practically every religious space at the moment about the last days. I would say with the quickening and escalation of world events and catastrophes that even the secular spaces have tapped i...

An Urgent Warning to the Church

Shalom, family. It's been a little while since I've last posted. These past 2 weeks have been nothing but blessings for my family and I. Our adoption of my son was approved by the courts, I was baptized on April 17th, Easter Sunday was a beautiful gathering at my parents house, and today my son got a new personal record of 2:27 for the 800m at our local invitational. Life has been good personally. Nevertheless, there are also some serious matters that took place and are taking place in the world--specifically the Church--that I feel compelled to address.  As you probably already know, Pope Francis passed just a day after Easter. My heart goes out to saints of the Catholic body as they grieve this loss. While surfing Youtube yesterday I saw a reaction video from a Christian channel about the antichrist appearing. A man named Aba Al-Sadiq stood at a podium in a dimly lit room and preached a sermon in front a crowd of what looked to be mostly muslims. At the end of the sermon he s...
