Delitzsch is very interesting; but Baudissin's 'Studien zur Semitischen Religionsgeschichte' would come closer to what you need. There are several other important Germans Schrader, Bunsen, Duncker, Hommel, and so on." "Unluckily I I don't read German readily," Theron explained with diffidence.
In addition to a conspicuous central peak, there are several small craters, and low short ridges in the interior. HOMMEL. Adjoins Vlacq on the S. It is a somewhat larger and a far more irregular formation.
Rawlinson, iii. 68, 22, occurs a deity, 'swine of the right hand, i.e., propitious. Rawlinson, ii. 59, 23. The second element in Pap-sukal is the common Babylonian word for 'servant, or 'messenger; other deities therefore standing in a subsidiary position are also called Pap-sukal. So e.g., Nebo and Nusku. See further on and compare Hommel, Semiten, pp. 479, 480. Inscription B, col iii. 2.
Hommel and others interpret that Gilgamesh accomplishes the 'forty-five days' journey' in three days. This I take to be the meaning of the numbers introduced at this point. The text is badly mutilated. There is no limit to the rule of death. Death alone is 'immortal. As Haupt correctly interprets. This appears to be the sense of this rather obscure line. See below, p. 507.
BIELA. A considerable ring-plain, about 55 miles in diameter, S.W. of Janssen, with a wall broken on the N.W., S., and E. by rings and large enclosures. There is a central mountain, but apparently no other details on the floor. ROSENBERGER. This formation, about 50 miles in diameter, is one of the remarkable group of large rings to which Vlacq, Hommel, Pitiscus, &c., belong.
NEARCH. A ring-plain, about 35 miles in diameter, on the S.W. of Hommel, forming part of the Vlacq group. TANNERUS. A ring-plain, about 19 miles in diameter, between Mutus and Bacon. It has a central mountain. MUTUS. A fine but foreshortened walled plain, 51 miles in diameter. There are two ring-plains of about equal size on the floor, one on the N., and the other on the S. side.
On every side except the W., where the border is unbroken, and descends with a gentle slope to the dark interior; ring- plains and smaller depressions encroach on its outline, perhaps the most remarkable being Hommel a on the N., which has an especially brilliant wall, that includes a conspicuous central mountain, a large crater, and other details.
He arrived "at the idea of the unity and indivisibility of the Supreme Being," and only as "in course of time this doctrine was changed and corrupted ... the dualism of God and the devil arose." "Monotheism was superseded by Dualism." Both Dr. F. Hommel and Friedrich Delitzsch agree on the question of an early Arabian and Sumerian monotheism. Dr.
It has been suggested that since the statues of Telloh are those of the priest-kings, only the priestly classes shaved their hair off. See an interesting discussion of the question by Professor Hommel, "Arabia according to the Latest Discoveries and Researches." Sunday School Times, 1895, nos. 41 and 43. See Hilprecht, Old Babylonian Inscriptions, i. 16-18.
Hommel demonstrates from the personal surnames contained in the inscriptions the existence of a "very exalted monotheism" in the most ancient times of the Arabian nation, about 2500 B. C., and among the Semitic tribes of northern Babylonia. This "monotheistic religion" degenerated under the influence of Babylonian polytheism.
