Cancer is a strange cell.
You can go along for years in remission
and then one day it pops its head up again.
If you ever have it you will never be free of it.
Pray for the day there will be a permanent cure.

A SMALL REQUEST...


Dear God,
I pray that You will guide someone to find a cure for cancer.
In Jesus Name, Amen









Thirteenth Century BCE

The Israelites first appear in the historical record in an inscription dating from the thirteenth century BCE commemorating a victory of the Egyptian pharoah Merneptah. “Carved off is Ashqelon, seized upon is Gezer,” reads the stela, an inscribed pillar. “Israel is laid waste, his seed is no more.” [1]

Merneptah was the fourth ruler of the Nineteenth Dynasty of Ancient Egypt. He ruled Egypt for almost ten years between late July or early August 1213 to May 2, 1203 BC, according to contemporary historical records. He was gthe thirteenth son of Ramesses II, and only came to power because all his older brothers, including his full brother Khaemwaset, had predeceased him, by which time he was almost sixty years old. [2]

The ABCs have come a long way since they were invented more than 3,500 years ago. The workmen of Sarabit adapted most of the original Proto-Sinaitic letters from pictographs fouind in Middle Egyptian hieroglyphs. This easily learned alphabetic script survived relatively unchanged for hundreds of years until, around 1200 B.C.EE., a more linear, abstracted script developed among the cities and kingdoms of Iron Age Syuria and Palestine. As the alphabet was adopted for Phoenician, Greek and then Latin, the letters became ever more abstracted, and in the end, no longer bore any resemblance to thje original pictorial chacters invented by the Serabit miners. Modern Hebreew letters developed through the Aramaic alphabetic tradition, although they retain the names of many of the original Proto-Sinaitic letters. [3]

1220 BC: People from the Aegean will soon settle on the western coast of Canaan, where they will be known as the Philistines. [4]

1220 BC: Pharaoh Merneptah claims victory over several sites and peoples in Canaan, including the territory of Israel. This is the earliest contemporary notice of Israel.[5]

1220 BC: The Stela of Merneptah, in which the Egyptian king claims to have destroyed many peoples and places in the land of Canaan, including “Israel.” The claims are surely exaggerated, but the mention of Israel indicates that a people of that name is located in Canaan at about 1230 BCE.[6]

1220 BC: According to tradition, the Hebrews, based at Kadesh on the Sinai-Negev border, meet resistance in trying to enter Canaan, so they circle the Dead Sea and encamp in Moab.[7]

1220 BC: The city of Jericho, which according to the book of Joshua was destroyed by the Israelites, show no archaeological signs of ruin. Nearby Ha-Ai, whose destruction is likewise attributed to the Israelites, was ruined no later than 2500 BCE. Other sites, such as Hazor, Devir, and Lachish evidence destruction, but it is not clear at whose hands- Egypt’s, the Philistines’, other Canaanite states’ or Israel’s Other sites said to fall to Israel, such as Gebeon and Hebron, do not yet exist.[8]

1220 BCE: In the course of the next two centuries, Israel comprises a somewhat loose confederation of 12 tribes, though the identity of these tribes shifts. One gathers from the Book of Judges that in wartime Israel is united and led by a man or woman endowed with a devine charisma. In fact, the unity imputed to Israel in this period may be exaggerated; virtually every leader, or “judge,” operates in the confines of one’s own tribe.[9]

1220 BCE: The destruction of the Tower of Babel, (Genesis 11) may recall the triumph of Tukulti-Ninurta I, who may himself be recalled (in Genesis 10:8-10) as the legendary Nimrod.

1220-1200 BCE: Joshua and the Israelites invade Canaan.[10]

1208 BC: Merneptah Stele 1208 BC

Most of the hyroglyphic inscription celebrates Merneptah’s victory over Libia, his enemy to the west, but almost as an after thought he mentions his conquest of people to the east, in just two lines.[11]

1208 BC: The text reads, “Ashcelon has been brought captive, Gezer has been taken captive, Jenoham (in the north Jordan valley) has been seized. Israel has been shorn, Its seed no longer exists. [12]

1200 B.C.: The Jews first appear in the historical record as a group of tribes living in the hills around the Dead Sea about 1200 B.C. [13] The League of the 12 Tribes was formed (Amphictyony: the political and cultural union of the inhabitants of the region for the protection of a centrally located shrine). The league was founded on the common origins and religious worship of the tribes. The Judges (tribal leaders) watched over the religious worship and the observation of God’s law (1200-1000).[14]

1200 BCE “Sea Peoples” from Aegean invade the eastern Mediterranean. [15]

1200 B.C.: The beginning of the Iron Age.[16]

1200-1025: The period of the Judges and the confederation of the tribes of Israel in Canaan.[17]

May 2, 693: The Sixteenth Council of Toledo, which had opened on April 25, met for the last time. Among its other accomplishments, the council took further steps in the on-going, ever more vicious, suppression of the Jews by the Christian Visigoth. The law code, which granted “tax freedom to Jewish conversos” now transferred the tax obligation to Jews who had not converted. Also, the council ruled that “converts were allowed to trade with Christians, but not until” they had proven themselves “by recitation of creeds and eating of non-kosher food. The council also enacted penalties against Christians who entered into business transactions “with unconverted or unproven Jews.” [21]

May 2, 907: King Boris I of Bulgaria died. At the time of his death, Boris was actually a monk having abdicated his throne in 889. During his reign, Bulgaria continued to provide a refuge for Jews fleeing from Byzantine persecution. According to some reports, there was an attempt to convert the pagan Bulgars to Judaism. True or not, Christianity would become the state religion.[22]



960-1030

Crucial to the development of these communities was their rabbinical leadership. Rabbenu Gershom (960-1030), born in Mainz, is known as the father of Ashenazic Jewry. He and his rabbinical court established Torah basis.[23]

961: The great age of pilgrimage begins with the tenth century. The Arabs lost their last pirate-nests in Italy and southern France in the course of the century; and Crete was taken from them in 961.[24]

969: Casual references in the chroniclers tell us of frequent pilgrimages though the names of the actual pilgrims that we now possess are inevitably only those of the greater personages. From amongst the great lords and ladies of the West there came Hilda, Countess of Swabia, who died on her journey in 969.[25]

970: Other pilgrims to the Holy land include Judith, Duchess of Bavaria, sister in law of the Emperor Otto I, whose tour took place in 970.[26]

976

FINDANUS, Second son of Doungallus, was seized of the estate of the Tombermory in the Isle of Mull and Findanus Castle (Dunakin) in the Isle of Skye, known by the name of MacKinnon Castle in the present day; this castle was the residence of the Lairds of MacKinnon till the 14th century, when Strathardill, also in Skye, became their seat. Findanus and his bride, the Norse princess nicknamed ‘Saucy Mary,’ ran a heavy chain from Skye to Lochalsh and levied a toll on all shipping passing up and down. It is from him that the MacKinnon chiefs obtained their Gaelic Patronymic. that Cell, son of Findgaine, a Mormair (Earl) of Alban (Scotland), was killed in a foray by the King of the Cenell Conall in O’Failge A.D. 976;[27]



MacFindanus MacAlpin, son of Findanus, called MacFingon MacAlpin, acquired further property in the Western Isles and in the shires of Perth and Ross. For some period after this the descendants of Alpin frequently assumed the patronymic of MacAlpin in addition to their other appellations.[28]



May 2, 1108 (20th of Iyar): Solomon Ibn-Farussal was murdered shortly before the forces of Islam defeated the Christians at the battle of Ucles. Yehuda Halevi composed an elegy upon hearing of Ibn-Farrusal’s murder. Ibn-Farussal reportedly was “in the service of a Christian prince” who had sent him as an emissary to the Spanish city of Murcia. The “Christian prince” may well have been Alfonso VII, the monarch who led the Spaniards to defeat at Ucles.[29]

•

• 1111: “In the beginning of his reign, Alfonso VII (1111) curtailed the rights and /liberties that his father granted the Jews. He ordered that neither a Jew nor a convert may exercise legal authority over Christians, and his held the Jews responsible for the collection of the royal taxes. [30]



May 2, 1160: In the Montpellier region of southern France, an agreement was concluded according to which every priest who stirred up the people against the Jews should be excommunicated. The Jews in return pledged to pay four pounds of silver every year on Palm Sunday.[31]

1163

In 1163 Nur ad-Din saw clearly the next step in the unification of the Arab world against the European occupation. Nur ad-Din ordered Shirkuh, Salin’s charismatic uncle, to undertake a succession of invasions to the south and ordered the young Saladinb, now twenty six years old, to accompany his un cle. Reluctantly, Saladin complied.[32]

1164

In 1164, with Saladin in command of the vanguard of the army, Shirkuh conquered Cairo. But within weeks he forced to withdraw when Crusader forces came to the aid of the Egyptian caliphate.[33]

May 2, 1187 A.D.

Overnight the Templars mustered eighty knights from the Templar castles at Caco and La Feve. Ten Hospitalers joined the expedition, among whom was the Master of the Hospital himself, Roger des Moulins, who was on his way to Tiberias as a conciliatorty envoy from the King in Jerusalem. A company of forty knights from the royal garrison at Nazareth joined this band before dawn, and they set out into the hills near Mount Tabor to search for the infidels. Somehere after midday this stalward band came upon the force of seven thousand Muslim soldiers in a a swale near a fresher called the Springs of Cresson, only two miles from Nazareth.[34]

May 2, 1481: The Pope called upon all Christian princes to send back to Spain the Jews who had fled from the Inquisition.[35]

May 2, 1605: Massacre of the Jewish community of Bisenz, Austria.[36]


May 2, 1611: The King James Bible is published for the first time in London, England, by printer Robert Barker. For many Jews (as well as non-Jews) the language of the King James Bible is the only version of the TaNaCh they know.[37]



May 2, 1670: King Charles II of England grants a permanent charter to the Hudson's Bay Company to open up the fur trade in North America.[38]



May 2, 1729: Birthdate of Catherine II, also known as Catherine the Great, Czarina of Russia. Regardless of how history views this German princess who replaced her husband on the throne of Russia, she was responsible for Russia acquiring most of its Jewish population. Under her reign, Russia acquired much of Poland and its large Jewish population. Her record of treatment of the Jews, is mixed to negative. As a follower of Voltaire, she could not help but be swayed by his low opinions of the Jews. Her policies led to the creation of what would be called the Pale of Settlement.[39]





May 2, 1757: In 1756 war broke out again with the Indians and the French. Of 29 men from his area who volunteered for duty, George Gotlieb was the first. He served in the military as a Sergeant in the PA Militia (Major James Burd's Co., First Regiment of Foot) March 3, 1756 — May 2, 1757 during the French & Indian Wars. A good deal of his time was spent building a frontier fort (Fort Augusta) on the east bank of the Susquehanna River just below the junction of the North and West Branches (where Sunbury, PA stands today). Colonel Burd spoke glowingly of George Gotlieb in his handwritten journal — on file in the Pennsylvania archives. It was here that pay records begin with "Geo. Gotlieb" then "Geo. Gotlip" and end with "Geo. Cutlip." The name change was complete. [40]



May 2, 1782

To his excellency, General Irvine, commander-in-chief of the western department.



Dear Sir: We the inhabitants, who live near Mr. Alex. Wells mill, being very unhandy to any other mill, and daily open and exposed to the rage of a savage and merciless enemy, notwithstanding the great attention paid by the general to our frontiers, and ordering men to be placed on the river, yet those inhabitants who live near enough the mill to fort there, fine ourselvesunable to guard the mill and carry on labor for the support of our families; and so, of consequence, cannot continue to make a stand without some assistance. And it is clear that if this mill is evacuated many of the adjacent forts, at least seven or eight, that now hope to make a stand, must give up; as their whole dependence is on said mill for bread as well as every expedition from these parts. And scouting parties that turn out on alarms are supplied from here. Therefore, we, your humble petitioners, pray you would order us a few men to guard the mill so valuable to many in these parts in particular and the country in general. May 2, 1782. [Signed] James Edgar, Henry Graham, David Vance, Arthur Campbell, Joseph Vance[41].[42]



VII.— IRVINE TO MOORE.



FORT PITT, May 2, 1782.

Sir: — I did not receive till yesterday your excellency’s favor of the thirteenth of April. I will make minute inquiry into the matter you require and transmit the best accounts I can obtain as early as possible [of the” Gnadenhuetten affair”]. In the meantime, I beg to refer you to the bearer hereof, Mr. David Duncan, whose business leads him pretty much ahroad and I am persuaded he can give a tolerable general account.[43]





May 2, 1799
Dear Uncle David,
I am writing you at this time to see if you will handle my share of the estate of my Dad. I understand Noble is to handle his niece (‘s) for her and you know what a crook he is.
And Uriah Springer has Moses share for him. Moses would have got all Dad (s) estate because he is older by state law. I do not know who will handle Wm. (‘s) share being he is the only son of step mother, so he will (receive) her share when she passes on. I do hope Moses will get his share for he is in the east and it will be hard for him.
I saw the agreement that was in the Bible and it was in his (John’s ) hand writing. My step Mom is to get one third. Moses and I and half br. Wm. To get the rest equal. So let me know if you will help me on my share. If you will, let me know by return mail.
As ever you nep, Rich Crawford.[44]

[42] Washington-Irving Correspondence by Butterfield, pages 299-300.

[43] Washington-Irving Correspondence by Butterfield 1882.

[44] Following are ten points which describe the time and true meaning of the letter.

· 1.The estate consisted of bounty lands, warranted by the state of Virginia, for the services of Col. William Crawford, and his son, Lieut. John Crawford, who fought ion the Virginia Continental Line Establishment. Therefore, Virginia’s state law was in control, since the land in question was located in the Virginia Military District of Kentucky and Ohio.

2. Noble Grimes, the uncle to Richard’s and Moses’s step mother, Effie (nee Grimes) Crawford, was to represent her, as her Power of Attorney, in the settlement of her 1st husban’s (Lieut. John Crawford) estate. Richard, here labled Noble Grimes (uncle to his step-mother), as a crook, thus doubting the honesty of Noble Grimes.

3.Moses Crawford (brother to Richard and the only two sons of Lieut. John Crawford, by his first marriage to Frances Bradford), was to receive his share of his father’s estate from Uriah Springer. As before mentioned, Uriah Springer was the second husband of Sarah (nee Crawford) Harrison, (sister of Lt. John Crawford, whom he married after her first husband, William Harrison was killed while on the Ohio Sandusky Expedition, like her father, Col. William Crawford), Captain Uriah Springer, seemingly was the executor for the share of Moses Crawford.

4.Not knowing who would manage the share of his half-brother, William; Richard keenly remembered that William was to receive the step-mother’s share, ‘after she passes on.” Richard was the only son of his father and step-mother. Thus, William may be considered the only child by Lt. John Crawford’s 2nd marriage.

5.Richard mentions his brother Moses as living in the east at that time. (May 2, 1799.) that it would be difficult for Moses to obtain his share, as Richard regretted. Proving that Richard and Moses were on good terms. (See Moses Crawford, son of Lt. John Crawford, in Lancaster and Dauphin counties, Pennsylvania.

6.Understanding the state law of Virginia, regarding the oldest son as “heir at law” to his father’s estate, without an available will of his father, Richard knew full well, that his brother, Moses, would inherit his father’s estate.

7. During the years of 1836 and 1838, a search for the will of John Crawford was done and none was found.

8. Requesting an answer from his Uncle David Bradford., by return mail
