In the defense of kimish, sometimes, things are made to appear what they are not, and vice versa. No one here is qualified to say who is ultimately correct commenting on subjects like this. Everything is speculation at best.

I have thought it through. And isn't it quite possible that places and things change names over thousands of years? Think that through.
Was America called "America" 500 hundred years ago even though it's been called that for a few hundred years? Hopefully you get the point.edit on 2-10-2011 by kimish because: (no reason given)
Err, but the 'Red Sea" has been known as the Red Sea since biblical times.
And Israel never covered all of eastern europe as you postulate.
Go ahead and think that through.

No. It is not 'speculation' to say that'red sea was still the 'red sea' 2000 years ago.

Do we really "know" this? Earth's crust has undergone many changes in its past. Also, what could be considered "biblical times", is quite the debatable subject, just to throw it out there..

But it is. Have you seen the "Red Sea" recently? Did you see it anytime in the past ten thousand years? If so, I do apologize.

Yes, we do know this. Well, clearly you dont. But those of us who accept fact do.

And a little research and homework will show you that not only one body of water was referred to as the Red Sea. Words, names and meanings do change over time and through translations.
Marinate on that.edit on 2-10-2011 by kimish because: (no reason given)edit on 2-10-2011 by kimish because: (no reason given)
The Biblical Book of Exodus tells the story of the Israelites' miraculous crossing of a body of water, which the Hebrew text calls Yam Suph. Yam Suph is traditionally identified as the Red Sea. The account is part of the Israelites' escape from slavery in Egypt. Yam Suph can also been translated as Sea of Reeds.

Not to be disrespectful, but, maybe in the future, you will look back on this and realize; you "know" nothing.

...Soo it's totally impossible, in your eyes and mind, that any other body of water could have been referred to as the "Red Sea"? Oh, and don't forget the hundreds of translations that the Holy Cannon has been through. The translation aspect alone needs to be held into the utmost consideration.

Have fun with that. When you learn to read history, look back on this and know you know nothing .

Sure, it's \possible'. It's POSSIBLE you are a red monkey. It's 'possible' the Israelites were actually 'native americans' (despite all actual evidence tot he contrary), but that doesnt mean its real.
Your conjuring flights of fancy and ignoring all actual evidence.
