- Valuable findings about the Bible’s greatest
prophet who was a highly educated
Egyptian prince and a claimant to the
throne. He created an advanced code of law but
many of his revolutionary and
visionary innovations were later ignored ...
Did Moses' creation text contain Egyptian
teachings?
How could Moses have invented the alphabet?
What did Moses know, in the scriptures,
about the stars?
How much of the texts are documented by
historical data
New knowledge about the real person behind the myth and his influence as
well as importance for our current cultural contexts. Antiquity greatly
esteemed Moses for his versatile talents as a military commander,
philosopher, mystic, magician, healer, inventor, and a learned astronomer.
The book utilizes and
re-vitalizes unique material from new discoveries and finds, revealing
unknown aspects of the enigma of the historical Moses. As well, it uncovers
Moses' far-ranging and exceptional achievements as recorded in rare and
ancient sources.
The Mosaic Law, for
example, is a most advanced ancient code with remarkably modern elements:
environmental laws, social laws, asylum rights, human rights law, debt
relief, animal protection, hygiene rules, and military ethics.
In addition, the book
uncovers an astronomical background for the Pentateuch texts which mention
stars and celestial bodies as well as his calendar for the Israelites. The
book contains a comprehensive presentation of historical relationships to
the world's first alphabet - the Sinai-alphabet - also indicated in the
Bible which is the oldest book written with the use of the alphabet.
Moses is one of our
early history's most insightful and spiritual personalities. The book also brings to light much intriguing but often
ignored material about Moses' extraordinary and eventful background
in and outside of Egypt.
"... an impressive
depiction of a man straddling the dividing line between history and

Moses is known as one of the most insightful and spiritual personalities
of early recorded history. After several decades of painstaking research
into the sources of ancient history, the book introduces a number of
surprising discoveries about Moses, brought to light through years of
meticulous research.
Moses appears more
frequently in our modern usage and conceptual framework than most other
Biblical figures. But what was his real identity? Many often suppressed
sources have been studied and compared to the most recent achievements
of research. This includes the revelation of several items of previously
unnoticed evidence about Moses' historic and dramatic fate, in and
outside of Ancient Egypt.
The unusual data about
Moses' status and activities include several rediscovered historical
pieces of information previously rejected by researchers due to the more
limited perspective of their respective eras. Some of these notions,
such as that Moses was a fictional character, gained a foothold in
scientific approaches - even to this very day. But there is simply too
much evidence and tradition to enable his historical presence to be
wiped out.
A bibliography of rare
great proportions is added to the book, additionally supplemented and
updated by sources from the other volumes. It probably constitutes the
most comprehensive collection of scientific works, articles and
treatises about Moses in the world. The book also includes a
comprehensive bibliography of Egyptian astronomy and chronology.
In the book, a series of
previously enigmatic circumstances in the old scriptures about Moses are
presented with a direct connection to ancient history. The new, specific
and interesting information, which hereby receives a wider audience, is
in several instances actually capable of renewing and expanding
knowledge of Moses and his continued influence down through the ages.

work's main character is captivating, and the sources trotted out by the
author bear witness to a fantastically erudite author whose method of

From the reviews on "Prophet and Unknown Genious", vol. 5 of the
Moses-series :
"... The fifth and final
volume of the impressive series on the historical and Biblical Moses which in
quite a unique manner provides an interdisciplinary presentation of material
from sources of religion, antiquity and ancient history. ... Each chapter can
stand alone and, as in the previous volumes, concentration and absorption are
required to maintain breadth of view. This is not a difficult, scientific text,
but its contents are very compact and full of detail. It concludes with fifty
pages of source references. The statements from renowned researchers and
professionals on the cover and in the preface bear witness to the respect
surrounding this work which is bordering on history and prehistory. ..."

"... Ove von Spaeth
enchants us with age-old knowledge rewritten in contemporary language so
everyone can participate in following the promising journey of Moses on several
levels many thousands of years ago. A masterpiece that simply must be read, and
readers will benefit and advance even further by reading it more than once. ..."

"... This is the 5th and
last volume of the great book-series on Moses. ... It began with the detection
of Moses being born originally to become a pharaoh of Egypt - it means, too,
that he was an initiated - but he was repressed because of a plot from the
priests and of power struggle in the family. However, it did not prevent him
being what he was incarnated to be - the very 'renewer' of the culture. In this
vol. 5, it is examined more closely how he actually had a decisive renewing
influence on our cultural history. - Ove von Spaeth has been digging out many
sources and brought to light many intriguing things which other historians have
ignored. ..."
- Ruth Olsen,
editor, - Ny Verdens Impuls Journal
"... Even in our modern
times it makes a virtual impact on us that 3,500 years ago Moses was connected
to conditions so impressive and surprising in our early historical and cultural
heritage.
The established knowledge
suffers - of natural reasons - from huge gaps in research. In the light of much
new material, some parts of the established knowledge on the past will often be
incorrect. There are many angles, and all historians know that there is no authoritarian "belief"
for a given historical sequence - not one unambiguous
truth. - In "Prophet and Unknown Genius", however, its writer Ove von
Spaeth has realized that the task of history writing is to explain and to
understand, and not to pronounce politically correct - and presently fashionable
- sentences on history. ...
Extraordinary discoveries
have been presented - and a pleasantly thorough research. This one contributes
to prove that it is possible - successfully - to put forward extraordinary
demand for quality in the promoting of insight in a complex, ancient world and
its history of culture. Also, the book is an intellectual achievement, which -
across dividing borders of traditional schools - has been carried through as not
only an especially valuable, but in fact an upheaval, expanded research. And in
the same time it is a highly inspiring reading. ... "

"... The Danish writer,
Ove von Spaeth, has written five books on Moses entitled: 'The Suppressed
Record', 'The Son of Pharaoh's Daughter', 'The Vanished Successor', 'The Secret
Religion', 'Prophet and Unknown Genius'. Unfortunately, I have not been
able to read all of his work. But based on what I have read, and through
communication with the author, I'm confident he has historically located the
individual that wrote the chapters translated in this manuscript. He places
Moses in Egypt in 1500 BC ... ".

"... All history is a
manifold topic, because - when you become absorbed in it - it makes doors and
windows open to all the four corners of the earth, and you discover that all of
the history is coherent. Postscript: It is remarkable to observe the
discovering/disclosing of researchers' or scholars' uncertainty and
minus-knowledge derived from "methods" and "systems" which are self-contrived!
