My standard response when asked to reconcile ZetaTalk with every other
prophecy in the world is to say "if it differs from ZetaTalk, its
wrong". The fact that a long night occurred on the West Coast of the
Americas, and a long day occurred in the Middle East is well recorded in
folklore. Since sun-dials, not clocks, were in use then, NO ONE knew
how long or short the time span was. They estimated. I quote:
Worlds in Collision, The Most Incredible Story
[A] story is told about Joshua ben Num who, when pursuing
the Canaanite kings at Beth-horon, implored the sun and the
moon to stand still. Joshua (10:12-13):
And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people
had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is it not written
in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of
heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.
Worlds in Collision, On the Other Side of the Ocean
The Book of Joshua, compiled from the more ancient Book
of Jasher, states that the sun stood still over Gibeon and the
moon over the valley of Ajalon. This description of the
position of the luminaries implies that the sun was in the
forenoon position. The Book of Joshua says that the
luminaries stood in the midst of the sky. Allowing for the
difference in longitude, it must have been early morning or
night in the Western Hemisphere.
We go to the shelf where stand books with the historical
traditions of the aborigines of Central America. The sailors
of Columbus and Cortes, arriving in America, found there
literate peoples who had books of their own. In the
Mexican Annals of Cuauhtitlan, written in Nahua-Indian,
it is related that during a cosmic catastrophe that occurred
in the remote past, the night did not end for a long time.
Sahagun, the Spanish savant who came to America a
generation after Columbus and gathered the traditions of
the aborigines, wrote that at the time of one cosmic
catastrophe the sun rose only a little way over the horizon
and remained there without moving. The moon also
stood still. The biblical stories were not know to the
aborigines. Also, the tradition preserved by Sahagun
bears no trace of having been introduced by the missionaries.
