 TIDAL in the Bible Encyclopedia - ISBE (Bible History Online)
Tidal is mentioned in Gen 14:1,9 in the account of the expedition of Chedorlaomer of Elam, with his allies, Amraphel of Shinar (Babylonia), Arioch of Ellasar, and Tidal, who is called "king of nations" (the King James Version) (goyim, Targum `ammin).
Though we have here the long-sought name of Tidal, it may legitimately be doubted whether this personage was the ruler of that name mentioned in Gen 14.
If he be, as is possible, the same personage as is mentioned in Gen 14, he must have fought against Arioch's son, conquered his domains and been killed, in his turn, by either the Biblical Chedorlaomer or another Elamite ruler beaming the same or a similar name.

 The Biblical Flood and the Ice Epoch
Here tidal forces are amplified to an extent of being some 15 to 25 times as high as they are in the open oceanic locations of lower latitudes.
Hence the tidal upheaval from within the Earth must have been very much greater than the tidal upheaval on the Earth's surface, involving her relatively minute oceans.
The drag was effected in an arcuate, sweeping pattern on the inside of the Earth's crust.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Deluge
Thirdly, if the Biblical Deluge was geographically universal, the sea water and the fresh water would mix to such an extent that neither the marine animals nor the fresh-water animals could have lived in the mixture without a miracle.
It has been suggested that the axis of the earth was shifted on account of the earth's collision with a comet, or that powerful volcanic eruptions raised new mountains in the sea, or that an earthquake caused a tidal wave to overrun certain portions of the dry land.
In order to uphold their division of the inspired text into the so-called J and P documents, they maintain that the Akkadian story was copied partially in the J and partially in the P documents, and that the Biblical "Redactor" reunited these two partial accounts into one.

 On Finding an Ice-Age Book
"As the waters fail from the sea and the flood decays and dries up, so man lies down...." This seems to be an illusion to coastal waters failing and retreating before a tidal wave attacks the shoreline.
It is apparent from Job 7:12 that men learned how to protect themselves from tidal waves by setting a watch over the sea.
The fact that the two records which always have played the same tune only becomes recognizable when one plays the geological record at the same speed as the Biblical record!

 Chedorlaomer
The king of Larsa was Eri-Aku ("the servant of the moon-god"), the son of an Elamite prince, Kudur-Mabug, who is entitled "the father of the land of the Amorites." A recently discovered tablet enumerates among the enemies of Khammu-rabi, Kudur-Lagamar ("the servant of the goddess Lagamar") or Chedorlaomer, Eri-Aku or Arioch, and Tudkhula or Tidal.
When he ascended the throne, the country was under the suzerainty of the Elamites, and was divided into two kingdoms, that of Babylon (the Biblical Shinar) and that of Larsa (the Biblical Ellasar).
Chedorlaomer - (= Khudur-Lagamar of the inscriptions), king of Elam.

 Noah: The Hunt for the Unicorn Killer Boneman Humor
My daughter would have soiled herself to see so many animals all in one place, (animals are her thing), but I'm equally certain she would've been traumatized to see so many men, women, children and kitties being flattened by tidal waves of water.
Turn that freak from a Unicorn into a eunuch--chop chop) I'm sure NBC pulled out all the stops, in the second half of this juiciest of all Biblical stories.
To be honest, I wasn't able to watch the second half of it--I had to work--I'm sure I missed the boat.

 B.H. Roberts (part 2)
These events in the Book of Mormon are described as being attended with great terrors--with storm and tempest, and three hours of tremendous earthquakes which caused mountains to rise from plains, and mountains to sink to valleys; which buried cities beneath new raised mountains, and sank others beneath tidal waves of the sea.
hese are further extracts from the debate quoted on the page "B.H. Roberts and the Book of Mormon." Here I respond to the attempts of another debater, a Mormon, to elevate the Book of Mormon to biblical status by giving him some questions about certain passages in that book, and citing B.H. Roberts on them.
Roberts [1857-1933], a leading Mormon writer and apologist, and a member of the First Council of the Seventy of the LDS Church, can hardly be considered an "anti-Mormon" source on the subject at hand, and I intend to cite his work again in a moment.)

 The Biblical Flood, the deluge of the Scriptual Genesis record, the Bible Noah Ark flood, the Noah's Ark flood.
A majority portion cleaves the surface of the seas and causes massive disturbances to the seas and tidal waves that run onto the land.
Of course, there have been many proposed theories as to the configuration of the global surface at the time of the flood, but for now it is convenient to assume that this configuration was as it is today.
Including a sudden rise of sea level due to a comet induced flood followed by a relatively rapid melting of the ice sheets due to a sudden warming of the climate.

 Ebla Forum: View topic - From Manetho to Minimalism
It is similar to many minimalist claims, such as Whitelam's claim that Biblical Archaeology has been changed by a "tidal wave of postmodernism".
What scholars use Manetho for is primarily in the numbering of the dynasties (which, notably, disagrees with many other records), but because of the nature of its transmission, none of the "details" about any of these dynasties are taken seriously, and the earliest lineages are similarly taken with mighty shovelfuls of salt.
I would say that it is likely that Manetho and the author of the Turin Papyrus had access to a king-list like the one at Karnak, so their chronological sequence is probably verifiable to a limited extent, but anything beyond that certainly isn't.

In vi, 19, indeed, P records God's command, "thou shalt bring two of a sort into the ark"; but is it inconsistent with this, if 120 years later, when Noe is about to enter the ark, J relates the more accurate Divine specification, "of all clean beasts take seven and seven...

 Island Presbyterian Church
Rev. Kevin Backus, senior pastor at Bible Presbyterian Church, Love Road, Grand Island, NY has just returned from Colombo, Sri Lanka where he spent ten days working with Calvary Reform Presbyterian Chapel, training people in Biblical counseling and preaching in Colombo and outlying regions.
This is in the area that was just extremely hard-hit by the tidal wave and he was glad to say he was back home when it hit.
"The church that I was ministering at was a quarter mile or less from the Bay of Bengal," Rev. Backus said this week.

 The Khazar Origin of Ashkenazim, Descendents of Magog.
The plain, blunt conclusion to the matter is that Gog and Magog have clearly and stealthily -- albeit, in a slow-motion tidal wave -- invaded from the north as per Biblical prophecy.
Yes, Gog and Magog have invaded the entire world, and what is even more astonishing is that it was done with not only the blessing of professed Christianity, but with their financial support and liturgical encouragement.
They have been so hypnotized and "drugged" by the idea of supporting and funding the marvelous "return of the Jews to their homeland" that they are as lemmings being willingly herded into the sea.

 The Biblical Flood, the deluge of the Scriptual Genesis record, the Bible Noah Ark flood, the Noah's Ark flood.
Therefore, one must consider the possiblility that a large portion of the damage of the flood was due to a "washing down" and "washing over" effect, as with flash flooding and tidal waves, instead of the standard interpretation of a deep standing flood of water that covered the entire globe.

 THE DAYS OF NOAH and the "Sons of God"
Then, in the days of Noah, a new and startling event burst upon the world, and fearfully accelerated the already rapid progress of evil, leading to such a tidal wave of violence and wickedness over the earth that there was no longer any remedy but utter destruction.
As we read that there were giants "also after that," it is to be remembered that when we come to the days of the Canaanites in the Biblical account we find encounters with giants in the land when the Israelites arrived there.
In the days of Noah, men were rapidly multiplying on the Earth, and by implanting their own "seed' in humanity these malignant beings might be able to enlist in only one generation a vast multitude as allies against God.

 CIDAT Equipment Data-Masamune
Following Sephroth's appointment as Head of Security at Blizzard Entertainment, the eight slots in the handle of Masamune were used to summon forth a group of goblins based upon the seven biblical sins.
In any case, the CWALers attempted to cripple Sephroth's plans by discarding Masamune into the ocean, but it returned to the dark warrior in a tidal wave the next day.
Masamune behaves identically for no two people, and to date only Sephroth seems to be able to tap his weapon to the fullest extent, judging by the speed with which he is able to do so.

 Using Lasers To Deflect Earth-Bound Asteroids
The Biblical flood (9600 BC), has been ascribed by geology Professor Alexander Tollmann to cometary fragments crashing into the ocean and causing 'almighty' tidal waves.
In 1996, archaeologist Dr Richard Kroon produced what is considered definitive proof that dinosaurs were made extinct by an asteroid collision.
Professor Victor Clube of Oxford University has suggested that cometary debris was responsible for the most recent Ice Age, 100,000 years ago.

 The Gods of Greek Mythology
He may have also been Orotal (equivalent to the biblical Thurgal or Tidal, or Turkish Tarkan or Kurdish Turgut) the god who was worshiped by the Arabs who Herodotus identifies with Dionysus.
Egyptian texts from the reign of Tutmoses III indicated that the Greek tribe of the Danai who were descended from Danaus (1472 BC) were known to the Egyptians and made tribute to Tutmoses III in 1457 BC at the same time that the Danids the daughters of Danaus married and then murdered the sons Aegyptus.
His father Agenor was the Hyksos Pharaoh Aaqenenre 1610-1569, who according to Manetho was Janins 1596-1571 and probably corresponds to Yakhuber c.1600 in other extant Egyptian inscriptions The Cadmus who was husband of Harmonia was a different person who based on the Theban king lists reigned from 1436-1380 BC.

 IBSS - Biblical Archaeology - Mt. Sinai
Professor Goedicke thinks a giant tidal-like wave called a tsunami caused by the eruption of Santorini, destroyed the Egyptian army, and the eruption formed the pillar of cloud and fire in Exodus (Shanks 1981, 42-50; Oren 1981, 46-53).
Ogyges "lived at the same time of the Exodus from Egypt" (Eusebius 1981, 524).
Note that at the time of Ogyges there occurred the first great deluge in Greece.

 BIBLE AND SPADE: Ch III- Abraham
More significant still is the apparently undesigned coinci­dence of the Biblical chronology: one line of tradition fixing the date of Abraham by numerical 'dead-reckoning' as about 2100 BC [This figure is calculated from data given in Genesis (chiefly P), where Abraham's migration from Haran is put as 1,125 years before Solomon's Temple (967 BC), i.e.
These four kings are named Am-raphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goiim (Gen.xiv.9).
Amraphel king of Shinar is clearly a Hebrew rendering of Hammurabi king of Sumer.
