"Broad vision and a proper perspective. - I have greatly increased my knowledge of the ancient Egyptians and the very diligent Jewish writers in this book, but I am unable to verify the rabbinical placement of Moses. I am profoundly impressed by Ove von Spaeth's vast knowledge."
          "Danish author Ove von Spaeth appears to be one of Denmark's boldest scientists. - He takes a distinctive approach as a historian. To himself he prefers a rather withdrawn life - with no interviews or being a motif for the photographers of the press. Better, von Spaeth fills the imagination of his readers with his discoveries about Moses ...(and) has prepared a brilliant, logical solution or true stroke of genius."
          "Ove von Spaeth is steadily an acute and captivating scientific explorer whose interpretations of the figure of Moses should be followed with great attention."
          - F.J. Billeskov Jansen, Ph.D., Professor in Literature Science, at the University of Copenhagen, - Politiken, daily

-

          "There are large gaps in the knowledge of official research in several of the same topics presented in the book. And a good many researchers with an urge for authoritarian "truth" in this world shy away from openly admitting the size of these gaps. The writer's knowledge and unprejudiced vision in this regard actually outdistance with sophisticated expertise the researchers who only think of imparting knowledge on what was agreed once upon a time."

          "A fascinating, coherent, interdisciplinary depiction of the origins of the prophet ...the Danish independent scholar and polymath, Ove von Spaeth, who after a supreme effort lasting many years may convince us that he has traced the origin and subsequent life history of Moses in a true deluge of sources. - With nothing less than formidable control of historical developments and interaction within the Mediterranean region and the Near East, Ove von Spaeth pieces together a profoundly fascinating puzzle that may very well turn out to be a true portrayal of Moses and his life."
          - Steen Voigt, Science editor, - Berlingske Tidende, daily

-

          "It is a Master-work …in my eyes anyway ...and would rate alongside the works of Flinders Petrie (founder of scientific Egyptian archaeology) ...believe me, the archaeological world need more Ove von Spaeth-s."

           "Your books about Moses ... How impressive what you have achieved in this field. Is it internationally known what is obtained here, about an essential period in the history of our civilization? Unfortunately, Danish language is not spoken or read by so many outside the frontiers of this country. I give the best wishes for your work - and send many greetings."

          "Rightly, Ove von Spaeth has chosen a vivid style in order to reach a wider circle of readers than mere specialists. Furthermore, his work is inter-disciplinary to an exceptional degree based on extensive and thorough studies within history, theology, archaeology, and history of religion, as well as history of astronomy. - The author argues that the Moses tradition in source material from Egyptology, the Bible, the Rabbinical Texts, and from a number of historians of antiquity also reflects special astronomical phenomena.
          With zeal and flair Ove von Spaeth has collected evidence from widely different sources to support his main thesis regarding Moses and his status and place in history. As a historian of astronomy I find the basic assumption worth testing in relation to biblical research, Egyptology, archaeology as well as general history."

          "This is a recommendation, a recommendation of an unusual piece of work, and the adjective 'unusual' should be taken in the most positive sense of the word imaginable. - This is the BOOK about Moses, truly a revolutionary work. - A stringent, disciplined work - and it reads like an exciting novel; an epoch-making interpretation!"
          - Jes P. Asmussen, Ph.D. et Theology, Professor, - at the Carsten Niebuhr Department of Near East Studies, University of Copenhagen

-

          "The author's fluently rapid style should be emphasized, too. He has a rare aptitude for passing on an extremely complex and sometimes not very accessible subject matter in a vivid yet logically structured and easily understood manner.
           Forming a sharp contrast to the short-sighted academics of modernity, finding in ancient literature merely words, Ove von Spaeth finds its imposing spirit, too. In other words one feels enriched as a human being, not just intellectually enlightened, when he with unusual insight and understanding explains the religious rationale behind innumerable phenomena of history as well as present time. Having read this work nobody will doubt the obvious relevance to modern people of studying antiquity. -
          No researcher has previously turned his or her attention on these matters which obviously deserve a wider audience. Ove von Spaeth truly risks his neck - which a genuine researcher must be willing to do, by the way, unless he is content to be a book-keeper. One thing is certain, however: Ove von Spaeth has thrown down an impressive inter-disciplinary gauntlet that cannot be ignored."

          "Cross-bordering. - An Important Place in History: It is a great pleasure for me to have the opportunity to recommend to the readers a close acquaintance with Ove von Spaeth, the Researcher and Writer. Ove von Spaeth belongs to a minor circle of persons, who have distinguished themselves through history by being able to make use of their eminent abilities and without being dependent of our society's established hierarchic structures and habitual thinking.
          Ove von Spaeth's research is interdisciplinary and is being carried out in borderlands, for instance between Humanities (also as spiritual studies) and natural science. This area represents an insatiable demand for comparative and cross-border research. However, the area is a total desert in respect of established researchers' investigations.
          Not only has Ove von Spaeth devoted his life to the research and communication of his discoveries in this field - he has also been able to handle the task to such a degree where his research is bound to result in occupying an important position in history.
          But as is the case with everybody within the mentioned circle of persons - with no exception - only the future, and unfortunately to a minor degree the present, will appreciate the importance of this research. As it is, I am honoured to have the privilege of apprising Ove von Spaeth's thoughts and results."

          "On the basis of my translation/interpretation of Tycho Brahe's "Urania Titania", the ancient horoscopes being published in this connection are historically reconstructed by Mr. Ove von Spaeth, who for many years has been researching on the history of astronomy.

          "Ove von Spaeth goes over the numerous, cultural-historical threads with a fine-toothed comb and "old-fashioned" spirit of research. Ove von Spaeth manages to establish a deeper understanding of a historical cultural tradition such as the Law of Moses and avoids the pitfall in which everything boils down to "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth". - A polymath's tour de force that deserves a comprehensive readership of careful readers and which definitely can and should serve as a source of inspiration several generations ahead."

          "I share with you an affinity for ancient Egyptian history, of which you are an authority. On two occasions, in 1962 and 1992, I had an opportunity to visit Egypt. As I gazed upon the Pyramids that have withstood the times of human history, I found myself deep in thought and marvelled at Egypt's abundant, ancient wisdom that offers humanity sound lessons for overcoming the problems encountered in an increasingly turbulent contemporary society. ... It is my sincere hope that through exchanges that heighten peace, culture and education founded on Buddhist humanism we can further expand multi-fold paths of mutual trust. ... Heartfelt wishes for further success in your important endeavours."

          “ Over the course of many years, Ove von Spaeth has dealt frequently with the sixteenth-century Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe, who has also been a focus of my research, and studied widely in the literature on Tycho Brahe and other subjects that have become the focus - and writes on aspects of traditions that reach in time from Egypt to the Renaissance, at which point they touch upon Tycho Brahe.“

          “ The way in which the author combines data from different language sources and countries up to and including computer mathematically controlled historical astronomy, can nothing else than convince the unlearned and probably in all substance also in one or more ways the expert … and in addition I will express my admiration for what the author has been able to appropriate and build on, as it appears, to a coherent whole - for comprehensive documentation of what other people partially and with some narrow entrances have suggested or tried to reach. “

          "Heinrich Schliemann, who proved more than a hundred years ago that the Homeric poems were based on historical facts. Just like Ove von Spaeth, who gave up his job as a printer, Schliemann discontinued his job as a merchant, in order to start finding proofs of his hypothesis. Followed by a lot of adversity and mocking, sarcasm and shake of heads from the learned people, Schliemann found his Troy … This could be one aspect for the Danish parallel to Schliemann."

          "He (Ove von Spaeth) is our guide on a wonderful journey to the Meccas of the mysteries of religion and to the cradle of our culture and religion. His ability to synthesize so many religious, historical and archaeological lines of thought is quite an achievement and communicating it to others is an even greater exploit. ...Ove von Spaeth writes in a light style without excessively long theoretical links - within the religious and historical material. This is knowledge that has unfortunately been met by thundering silence in some circles. Never have I seen or read such an intensely work as his books on the historical Moses."

Concerning the characteristics of the opposition from some press medias, not least among certain academic reviewers - you seem to be up against something which once was denounced as forces of darkness.

          "His incredible systematic and detailed research is a cornucopia of enlightening information about the life and deed of Moses and is transferred to us in a vivid language. - I can only repeat my great admiration for the impressive research, its logical conclusions, and the inspiring way of writing. Obviously the resistance that especially Ove von Spaeth's books are being met with from some Egyptologists and many academic theologians is a result of a hurt, professional pride, or let us just use the correct designation, i.e. envy. At this moment a number of Egyptologists and theologians would wish that it was they who had presented this research for gaping and jubilant colleagues!"

          "Concerning Moses, the immensely strong archetype and cultural figure in the mind of the western world, a remarkable world-class research work has now been carried out by Ove von Spaeth. With his detailed insight in quite a number of interdisciplinary studies and his rare ability to create syntheses, Ove von Spaeth is able to prove connections of sources establishing a new comprehensive picture of Moses.
          With a firm base in existing facts he "in a renewing way writes the history" and extends conspicuously the perspective on the introduction to the religion and the cultural impulse which so thoroughly has shaped us in our part of the world. This is a most welcome and needed renewal of our ideas about central impulses as to the cradle of our European culture."

          "I did not know that the majority of the "learned" world considered Moses a fictive person. It made me very happy that I found your books about Moses at the library... I know that you are more than aware of the opposition because of the work you are doing, but you may also know so well how to protect yourself, otherwise you would not have come this far.

          "The writer has spent more than 20 years on his studies and worked with these magnificent books - described by science as "future biblical research", "broader spectra of source material than other researchers in this line", "history-making interpretation", etc. - and about human enrichment, exciting perspectives and incredibly informing history writing. -
          It is an achievement to be able to write about such distant years with thorough documentation - (and) it requires a huge amount of self-discipline... The many years of work absorbed Ove von Spaeth almost completely. The work has been so important to him that material occupations and other sorts of well-being became insignificant to his way of living. He does not flaunt (any) status; to him that is of no value. Most professional reviewers have seen this work as the best documented solution in modern research to the Moses question."

In all, it is the most ambitious undertaking of research in the genre of religious-cultural and historical studies... it is also the most comprehensive interdisciplinary science project in this field carried out by a single individual."

          "As far as research is concerned, Ove von Spaeth has passed the major test of apprenticeship long ago with his treatise on the ancient Egyptian star map, the oldest star map in the world - and in addition the master test with his five volume work about the historical Moses. A hallmark of quality, also striking in his many articles. All seeking persons can find answers in Ove von Spaeth's texts informing women and men of today, the teacher, the priest, and in particular the researcher - here, everybody can find the most unique and subtle information. Such concentrated knowledge in such a way of clarity and wisdom is hard to find elsewhere ...
          Ove von Spaeth's books presenting knowledge beyond the ordinary - his texts are new groundbreaking research being known all over the world. At many universities around the world the contents of his books are discussed and young researchers in particular are very concerned about his pioneering findings ...
          He writes in a special manner, which in a sense is of the old ideal, yet contemporary, and he uses a special technique and providing a new way of looking at things. At the same time it is genuine fine research also with such an extremely richness of sources and references, and the author being in total control of the matters when he writes. It is unique."

          "Like so many others I have read your books on Moses with great pleasure and surprise - surprise as to your abilities to search where it is necessary to search if one needs an answer and does not only want to "shine" among "ruminants". - I have especially liked these features:
-   your exciting reading written for me and everybody, served in a way so that everything goes down voluntarily, if only the eyes and the fingers can keep the pace,
-   that you weave in the sources in the text in an easily readable way - far better than a source summary. This was initially supportive of one's growing wish to recognize the fact that you are right in your hypotheses, and later of one's own conviction on these."

          "His approach - a combination of modern astronomical and mathematical evidence with archaeological materials and Egyptology - allows for a fuller understanding of the development of astronomy in ancient Egypt and to provide important chronological evidence.

          In his intense and comprehensive studies of star knowledge in Ancient Egypt, Mr. Ove von Spaeth has succeeded in wringing out so far unknown information of the oldest star map of the world. - And last but not least: in addition to his meticulous research and his ability to understand events and religious life of ancient times, Mr. Ove von Spaeth is a marvellous narrator. He makes us turn things upside down once again. And we really need that!"

          "Mr. Ove von Spaeth's background is not the current, scientific education, but rather an interdisciplinary knowledge and a huge long-life-collected material of sources. Indeed, his books about Moses are not appreciated in certain circles at the Parnassus. However, a more fair consideration of controversial points of criticism should be initiated - for instance instead of this cheap and scornful non-scientifical rejection that much to my personal amazement I as a listener witnessed in a lecture hall at the University of Copenhagen on 23rd November, 2003, at a meeting with the Danish Egyptology Society.  
          Everything considered, the thoughts and ideas of this writer and researcher deserve broader dissemination, because so much are definitely suitable for further debate and information, and are able to present some of history's recognized truths in unusual, new, unconventional cohesions leading to engagement and inspiration and further concentration on the subjects. 
          In particular through Mr. Ove von Spaeth's humongous work with the book-series on Moses that I know him as an enthusiastic, engaged, and very serious person, who does not claim to know the truth, but only suggests other and untraditional angles of interpretation."
          Ole Henningsen, Co-Editor, SUFOI Journal

          "With his work von Spaeth has brought back one of the great personalities of history from the misty world of myths - to which he has been relegated - now reinstalled into sheer reality. But during this endeavour the author has also been able to prove a very close connection between the ancient Egyptian perception of the world and a modern perceived realistic initiation psychology, this breathing new life and meaning into the gradually sectarian, petrified Christianity. In fact, via von Spaeth the Moses of 3,500 years ago becomes a life-giving source for modern people.
          At all times von Spaeth will find his supporters among psychologically and philosophically orientated historians. Nietzsche would have nodded approvingly at von Spaeth's - by the way - outstanding interpretation of Christianity's evolution from primary Christianity, its fall, and its ability to stay alive by means of secretly returning to its Egyptian roots and draw nourishment from that, and how this hidden side of Christianity all of a sudden came into flower as the humanistic movement of the Renaissance. - Ove von Spaeth says in photo-negative the same as Nietzsche in Antichrist. And so far also Kierkegaard, where he claims that modern ecclesiastical Christianity is diluted rubbish and being almost the opposite of the original meaning.
          Sigmund Freud would have accepted - as a matter of course - von Spaeth's hypothetical basis, which makes Moses an Egyptian. "The Egyptian factor" as von Spaeth calls it - as being also a fundamental element in living Christianity - would have been acceptable to different history authors such as Oswald Spengler and Egon Friedell. And the close relation between Christianity and Buddhism - it is this relation Wagner deals with in "Parsifal". Obviously, Carl G. Jung would have taken von Spaeth's side. - In today's England a man like Colin Wilson would not feel alienated to von Spaeth's ideas. -
          The documentation presented here by von Spaeth is hard to escape. ... A central basis of the analysis of his texts is von Spaeth's use of a principle adopted by Max Weber, the sociologist and anthropologist, who calls it "Verstehen". - A fascinating world opens up under Ove von Spaeth's magnifying glass."
