Book The God of Egypt   Second Edition  Placing the Biblical Exodus in Egyptian History

Download or read book The God of Egypt Second Edition Placing the Biblical Exodus in Egyptian History written by Pamela Dawn O'Neal and published by Broken Oak Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did the Israelites ever sojourn in Egypt as the Bible describes? Most archaeologists would say no, mostly because they prefer to relegate the Bible to a collection of myths, and not as reputable as those from other civilizations. Indeed, most books in academia today maintain that there is no evidence of Hebrews ever living in Egypt, so the Exodus never happened. But if one considers the Bible as accurate history, and then compares it to recorded Egyptian history, one finds that event after event follows in chronological order, and the archaeological evidence is there to support both sides of the story for over five hundred years. This book, THE GOD OF EGYPT, presents a theory that the histories of Egypt and Israel follow a synchronous timeline, one that is based on the Bible and ancient Egyptian evidence. Decades of research paint a very different picture of events in ancient Egypt than do most other publications.

Book The Exodus from Egypt and the Desert of Amenta

Download or read book The Exodus from Egypt and the Desert of Amenta written by Gerald Massey and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2008-11-01 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When roughly classed, the myths and legends generally show two points of departure for migrations of the human race, as these were rendered in the stellar and solar mythology. One is from the summit of the celestial mount, the other from the hollow underworld beneath the mount or inside the earth. The races that descended from the mount were people of the pole whose starting-point in reckoning time was from one or other station of the pole-star, determinable by its type, whether as the tree, the rock, or other image of a first point of departure. Those who ascended from the nether-world were of the solar race who came into existence with the sun as it is represented in the legendary lore... from The Exodus from Egypt and the Desert of Amenta It goes unappreciated by modern Egyptologists, but it is embraced by those who savor the concept of a hidden history of humanity, and those who approach all human knowledge from the perspective of the esoteric. Gerard Massey 's massive Ancient Egypt: The Light of the World first published in 1907 and the crowning achievement of the self-taught scholar redefines the roots of Christianity via Egypt, proposing that Egyptian mythology was the basis for Jewish and Christian beliefs. Here, Cosimo proudly presents Book 8 of Ancient Egypt, in which Massey roots the story of the Hebrew exodus deep in Egyptian legend. From wilderness deserts and promised lands of plenty to magical rods and twelve tribes, Massey explains how the Hebrew tale descended from the story of Ra. Peculiar and profound, this work will intrigue and delight readers of history, religion, and mythology. British author GERALD MASSEY (1828 1907) published works of poetry, spiritualism, Shakespearean criticism, and theology, but his best-known works are in the realm of Egyptology, including A Book of the Beginnings and The Natural Genesis.

Download or read book God s Story the Exodus written by Ken Bray and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-03-17 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you stand on the plateau of Giza, as the ancient Egyptians called it, and come in sight of the pyramids, it is unbelievable. It raises the question I guess how did they do it. Well actually, that is a western question, it is a good one, scholars debate it, and you would be interested in looking at the various theories. However, I think the more Eastern question would be why did they do it? Because you see in the east, things like the pyramids are simply functional, oh, it had a function it is a tomb of a Pharaoh who called himself god on earth, and it is his tomb. However, in the east, a story is always put in concrete language in pictures and metaphors, so really what we have is a story. God had a story also. It went like this. There was a watery chaos, it is called formless and empty in Genesis, but hovering over it was the presence of the Creator God and He spoke. Out of the watery chaos came order, beauty and harmony, it was amazing, in fact, God said it was good. Then sin entered the picture and God's beautiful order began its slow but sure descent back into chaos. Chaos first effected individuals, Cain and Abel, and Abel's blood cried out and God heard it as only God can do but then the chaos caused by sin became a kingdom and the whole world is affected. Then they build a tower because they wanted to be like God themselves and we get what you might call the Anti-Kingdom, that is, evil that has become a system really, a whole civilization in a way. So when God brought Israel out of Egypt there were really two stories that were being told. One is the Egyptian story in stone and the other is the story God gave His people in the book, the Bible, and I think you are going to see why God brought Israel to Egypt, He brought them there so they could see more clearly both stories. The power of God of the Hebrews displayed at the Red Sea that night centuries ago was unbelievable. And the Hebrews as they came out of the Red Sea and saw the power of God that had divided the sea and then had returned it to its place stood and called Him King. However, the God of the Hebrews was not finished yet with His people He had selected to be His presence in the world. He had to mold them and shape them. There was a mountain He wanted to take them to, God led Moses and the nation of Israel, and he wants to lead us as well, not only lead us but also to partner with us to bring His message of Shalom. In the pages of this book, we will be focusing on two things. First, how story shapes story, how the story of the exodus shapes other stories in the New Testament. Second, our relationship with God and God's relationship with us so come with me as we follow in some ancient sandal prints as we look at God's story as it is rooted and set in Egypt and see how God began to mold His people to be His witness in the world.

Book The Ark of the Covenant in Its Egyptian Context

Download or read book The Ark of the Covenant in Its Egyptian Context written by David Falk and published by Hendrickson Publishers. This book was released on 2020 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Although much has been written about the Ark of the Covenant, few authors engage the wealth of information available that pertains to Egyptian material culture. [This] is the first book to explore the complex history of sacred ritual furniture in Egypt that predated the ark by hundreds of years. Within Egyptian culture, over four hundred examples of ritual furniture exist that shed light on the design and appearance of the ark. These examples form patterns that provide context for the Israelites' understanding of the ark at the time of its construction. That understanding would have been obvious to the Israelites of the time, but has since become obscured over the millennia. This groundbreaking book is the first to connect the Ark of the Covenant with the archaeology and chronology of ancient Egypt"--

Book The Evolution of the Exodus Tradition

Download or read book The Evolution of the Exodus Tradition written by Samuel E. Loewenstamm and published by Magnes Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Exodus from Egypt is the climax of Israel's prehistory as related in the Pentateuch. It may be subjected to two types of historical inquiry, the one focusing on Israel's national history, the other on the history of her traditions. The work concentrates on the second type of inquiry. In a comprehensive literary analysis, the narrative in the book of Exodus is compared not only with its parallels throughout the Bible, but also with the later, post-Biblical accounts found in the Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha and in the Hellenistic and Midrashic literatures.

Book Israel s Exodus in Transdisciplinary Perspective

Download or read book Israel s Exodus in Transdisciplinary Perspective written by Thomas E. Levy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-28 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible's grand narrative about Israel's Exodus from Egypt is central to Biblical religion, Jewish, Christian, and Muslim identity and the formation of the academic disciplines studying the ancient Near East. It has also been a pervasive theme in artistic and popular imagination. Israel's Exodus in Transdisciplinary Perspective is a pioneering work surveying this tradition in unprecedented breadth, combining archaeological discovery, quantitative methodology and close literary reading. Archaeologists, Egyptologists, Biblical Scholars, Computer Scientists, Geoscientists and other experts contribute their diverse approaches in a novel, transdisciplinary consideration of ancient topography, Egyptian and Near Eastern parallels to the Exodus story, the historicity of the Exodus, the interface of the Exodus question with archaeological fieldwork on emergent Israel, the formation of biblical literature, and the cultural memory of the Exodus in ancient Israel and beyond. This edited volume contains research presented at the groundbreaking symposium "Out of Egypt: Israel’s Exodus Between Text and Memory, History and Imagination" held in 2013 at the Qualcomm Institute of the University of California, San Diego. The combination of 44 contributions by an international group of scholars from diverse disciplines makes this the first such transdisciplinary study of ancient text and history. In the original conference and with this new volume, revolutionary media, such as a 3D immersive virtual reality environment, impart innovative, Exodus-based research to a wider audience. Out of archaeology, ancient texts, science and technology emerge an up-to-date picture of the Exodus for the 21st Century and a new standard for collaborative research.
