A:Ezekiel 8:14 describes women in the Temple of Jerusalem 'weeping for Tammuz'. The women were weeping because the fertility goddess Ishtar (or Asherah) had condemned her lover, the shepherd-god Tammuz, to hell after herself being crucified and resurrected. Another name for Tammuz was Dumuzi.
Tamarah Benima was born in 1950, in Amsterdam, Noord-Holland, Netherlands.
Ezekiel 8:14 describes women in the Temple of Jerusalem 'weeping for Tammuz'. The women were weeping because the fertility goddess Ishtar (or Asherah) had condemned her lover, the shepherd-god Tammuz, to hell after herself being crucified and resurrected. This is a brief portrait of the Hebrew people before they had become entirely monotheistic.
A:Tammuz, also known as Dumuzi, was the shepherd-god and lover of the goddess Astarte or Inanna. Ezekiel 8:14 describes women in the Jerusalem Temple 'weeping for Tammuz'. We now know they were weeping because Inanna had condemned him to hell, after herself being crucified and resurrected. Origen says of Tammuz in his "Comments on Ezekiel" (Selecta in Ezechielem) that "they say that for a long time certain rites of initiation are conducted: first, that they weep for him, since he has died; second, that they rejoice for him because he has risen from the dead." Note that Origen could not have observed Jews worshipping Tammuz, since they did not worship Tammuz in the post-Exilic period. Tammuz was also the name of the tenth month of the Jewish calendar, and is still used as the Iraqi name for the month of July.

No. The Christian Easter is the celebration of Christ's resurecction. ANSWER the pagan origins of Easter are, it was named Easter after the godes eostre, attis is said to have resurected on the same date, and its thought by soem that this is where the story origionates
Demons or vampires most say........but the fact that they come in a "boat" to get Dumuzi (Inanna's husband) seems a little weird.They come to bind his hands and neck....like some sea-faring enemy? Tammuz and his galla are part of Sumerian/Babylonian mythology, but had become popular throughout the Middle East in the 6th and 5th centuries BCE.
