This is a third book of the sequel "Jesus", "Tempest" and "Solomon" by Ralph Ellis. And even though it's not necessary to read the previous books to get the author's point, it's a good idea to get them as well.
The author's theory, equating Hyksos to Israelities, finds more evidence when he comapres Historical figures of Pharoahs of 21st Dynasty to their biblical couterparts.
What I like the most about the book is that not only it describes interesting alternative history theory, but that author seems to be able to substantiate his theory with the evidence taken from historical accounts, from Bible, Koran and other scriptures.
You should read this book with open mind, knowing that it is a radical alternative history book, as Ralph appropriately warns in each of his book.

I applaud the efforts of Ralph Ellis. However, more details and more specifics are needed to draw accurate conclusions. The author has correctly noted that there is the obvious connection between the Hebrews and the Egyptions, but the specifics and accurate identifications are somewhat off-base. Interested readers should invest in the books " Moses and Akhenaten" and "The Hebrew Pharoahs of Egypt" both written by Ahmed Osman.

So let me get this straight. A few hundred years after the Jews freed themselves from Egyptian slavery, Solomon (the son of King David, who was a Jew from Israel) was Egyptian? This is what I call `historical propaganda'. Just because there are photos of an unspecified Egyptian-looking relic - has nothing to do with the Solomon connection. How do people get away with A) choosing a propaganda hypothesis, B) gathering proof to suite their needs & C) making people believe with words & pictures.
Am not entertained. Solomon was indeed The King of Israel and was not Egyptian, sorry.
