Hebrew History
Originated in Mesopotamia and migrated to Canaan. Although the Canaanites already inhabited the land of Canaan, Abraham thought that God had promised the land to him. Scholars are not sure today how the taking of Canaan came about, but we do have the accounts from the Bible. And although the Bible is a historical book, it is not a historical document. The Hebrews wrote the Bible not to keep track of historical events, but to teach lessons and lift the spirit of the Hebrews in hard times.
According to the Bible, the Hebrews migrated to Egypt because of drought and famine in the land of Canaan sometime after 1700 B.C.E., where they were enslaved. During this time, Moses is tasked with liberating the Hebrews from Egypt. In the Hebrew tradition, the Hebrews returning to Canaan from Egypt is called the Exodus.
The Hebrews then structured their leadership with 12 tribes. Each tribe had elders known as Judges under God for around 200 years. Eventually, the Hebrews felt the threat of the Philistines, which made the Hebrews elect a king for the first time, named Saul. This first king was charismatic, but did not live up to the expectations of the Israeli people. Along came king David, who was very popular. David was also a writer and a brilliant politician. Scholars attribute the creation of this Israeli kingdom to David. David also turned Jerusalem into the kingdom's center and brought the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. The Ark of the Covenant was an elaborately crafted, gold-covered, wooden chest containing the two tablets bearing the Ten Commandments given to Moses by God. It also included Mana (the food provided by God to the Israelites in the desert) and Aaron's rod (Moses' walk stick that had miraculous powers). The Ark of the Covenant is considered the most sacred relic to the Israelites.
When David died, his son Solomon became king of Israel and further developed the kingdom. One of his major achievements was building a Temple for God. Now Jerusalem was complete. It had a king, a city, and a temple. This was the only temple for worshiping the Hebrew God. But, to accomplish this, Solomon had to increase taxes. Lots of construction meant that money was needed for the projects. "Old tribal patterns weakened as urban life expanded and some people gained wealth. A large measure of economic equality had .

Unit Lesson
New Kingdom
Unit II covers the steady emergence and changes of societies in the Eastern Mediterranean as well as the
unfolding events in the Middle East, all of which will continue to have profound consequences for the future of
Western civilization.
In 1567 BC, Egypt entered the New Kingdom after rebelling against the Hyksos, who had conquered them
several decades prior. Egypt had risen again, with its holdings including Libya, Palestine, and Syria, in
addition to Egypt itself. Pharaohs now portrayed themselves as the son of Re, the sun god, as interest in
worshiping the sun god increased. Land gods were also worshipped by the average Egyptian for their
connection with the lands.
The post empire period: This period, after 1085 BC, encompassed ten dynasties. Egypt was dominated by
various countries during these centuries, including conquest by Alexander the Great in the fourth century BC.
The Greek Hellenistic dynasties, known as the Ptolemies, would control Egypt until it fell to the Romans in
30 BC.
The Hittites: These people migrated into Asia Minor from areas of Asia around 1750 BC and built a powerful
state. The Hittites created a powerful army based on their knowledge of forging iron, giving them the strongest
available weapons at the time as the Hittites had access to large quantities of the ore. By 1200 BC, the Hittite
Empire dominated West Asia and threatened Mesopotamia. Suddenly in 1200 BC, the Hittites lost everything.
A mysterious group known to history only as the “Sea Peoples,” annihilated the Hittites and then, disappeared
themselves (McKay et al., 2014).
Between approximately 1200 BC and 1000 BC, a new Hebrew kingdom materialized as they returned from
their enslavement in Egypt. David, King from roughly 1000 BC to 970 BC, defeated the Philistines, who had
encroached on the area in the Hebrews’ absence, and after a series of battles, reestablished Jewish
dominance of Palestine. His son and successor, Solomon, ruled from about 970 BC to 930 BC. His rule was
marked by the strengthening of the king’s authority and increased trade. Solomon oversaw construction of the
famed Temple in Jerusalem, where the Ark of the Covenant was traditionally placed. Divisions among the

Palestine's Real Story - Occupited Palestine - the Arab LandArab Muslim

The Jews occupied palestine through Belfore declaration and forced out the original inhabitants who scattered all over the world after losing their ligitemate right in their land and to live peacefully on their own land.

Egypt’s stability is in stark contrast to the Ancient Near East of the same period, which endured an overlapping series of cultures and upheavals with amazing regularity. The earliest royal monuments, such as the Narmer Palette carved around 3100 B.C.E., display identical royal costumes and poses as those seen on later rulers, even Ptolemaic kings on their temples 3000 years later.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
