MOSES - FREUD


In his book Moses and Monotheism, Sigmund Freud wrote that  Moses was an Egyptian, rather than a Jew.

Freud proposed that -

1.Moses had been a priest of Akhenaten

Akhenaten was "the world's earliest recorded monotheist."[9] 

Monotheism

2. Moses fled Egypt.

3. Moses was murdered by his followers. [1]

'The biblical account of Moses is reinterpreted by Freud in light of new findings at Tel-El-Amarna. (Archaeological evidence of the Amarna Heresy.)

'Freud explains that centuries after the murder of the Egyptian Moses, the rebels regretted their action, thus forming the concept of the Messiah as a hope for the return of Moses as the Saviour of the Israelites

'Freud claimed that repressed (or censored) collective guilt stemming from the murder of Moses was passed down through the generations; leading the Jews to neurotic expressions of legalistically religious sentiment to disperse or cope with their inheritance of trauma and guilt.'

  1. Will the Germans have neurotic expressions concerning their post-WWII trauma and guilt and will it involve bringing back Bismarck, Kaiser Wilhelm or some other German luminary??

  2. Re: Germans guilt in above comment: CIA pdf on COUNTER SPY (now Covert Action Magazine). Including their disclosure of operatives names led to the death of a CIA agent in Greece... Israeli attempted sinking of the USS Liberty (34 deaths); true number of Jews would undermine the myth that Nazis killed 6 million Jews.... Kissinger regarded Nixon as a dangerous anti-semite, another disclosure that Deak was a CIA asset led to his silver fraud being investigated etc. PDF here. https://www.cia.gov/readingroom/document/cia-rdp88-01314r000100360016-9?fbclid=IwAR0jPRnuVOBiPAeI16IZ8Tq3pV4z7yHA9VaL0DcM_ncrwptejpzHLcJR6xg
