Book Synopsis Prophets and Pharaohs by : Ahmed Ella
Download or read book Prophets and Pharaohs written by Ahmed Ella and published by . This book was released on 2018-05-14 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ahmed M. Abul Ella explores some of the best-known stories and beliefs surrounding Egypt's role in the Old Testament. The author's writing offers a brave and, at times, controversial view of certain long-disputed debates that surround this fascinating era in world history, as he looks at events from an Egyptian standpoint.The author calls upon his extensive research and knowledge to present a wealth of information. He examines the enduring contradictions between events written in the Old Testament and those found on Ancient Egyptian temple walls, tombs, stelae, and papyri. Using well-known facts from the world of Egyptology, he is able to assign a fascinating historical context to the Old Testament stories. He proves conclusively that many of the Bible stories from the Old Testament do not sit comfortably with the indisputable chronology shown by Ancient Egyptian relics and artifacts.In addition to using clues from Ancient Egypt, the author provides a fresh viewpoint on the Exodus story by looking at the Koranic narratives in which Moses plays a key role. "Ahmed M. Abul Ella offers a vibrant and insightful perspective on one of the most crucial yet enigmatic events connected with Ancient Middle East history: the Exodus of the Hebrews with Moses and the story's interpretation in both the Old Testament and the Koran." - Miroslav Bárta

Book Synopsis By Way of Accident by : Ahmed Abul Ella
Download or read book By Way of Accident written by Ahmed Abul Ella and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-04-25 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is astonishing to think that many great archaeological discoveries occurred in Egypt only by way of accident during the 19th and 20th centuries. Even today accidents still play a vital, frequent and sometimes comical role, with new discoveries happening almost weekly and with many more secrets of the ancient Egyptian civilization still remaining. This book takes readers beyond these discoveries and their associated accidents. This book cannot be considered purely as an Egyptological and archaeological reading or even as dry history pages covering Egypt's modern era of the 19th and 20th centuries. Rather, it is a book that sheds light on the intimate links between the birth of Egyptology after the deciphering of the famous Rosetta Stone and the raging world politics and regional power shifts in Egypt and its surroundings. The book ties together the political storms of colonialism in the first half of the 19th century and the unsettling effect these upheavals had on Egypt during the reign of Mohamed Ali Pasha. In a storytelling style, the book is a journey through time and place. The book takes readers on a guided tour to most of Egypt's well-known monuments that were mainly discovered by simple accident or in which an accident played a major part leading to discovery. In addition, the book leads readers through time exploring ancient Egypt, the days of the pharaohs, ancient gods, rituals and public ceremonial festivals, with old and new stories that shed light on the true value of such discoveries in antiquity and modern day.

The revealed insights documented in this book helped the author, his church family and many in his sphere of influence to navigate through the global pandemic without fear, untimely death or incurable disease. This book "Pharaohs, Prophets & Plagues" will help every reader to recover properly from the last pandemic and to prepare you for similar storms in the future.

Book Synopsis Prophets, Lovers and Giraffes by : Orly Goldwasser
Download or read book Prophets, Lovers and Giraffes written by Orly Goldwasser and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2002 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book's central proposition is that the prominent feature of the hiero-glyphic script which Egyptologists call "determinatives" makes up an elabo-rate system of classifiers. All items of the lexicon take motivated pictorial classifiers. By this device, the script reflects the map of knowledgeorganization of ancient Egyptian culture. The book aims to reveal the principles and constraints governing the codification of the ancient Egyptian universe in this system. There is, to date, no comprehensive study, either in Egyptology or in cognitive linguistics, of the hieroglyphic classifiers as a structured system. The present work attempts to fill the existing hiatus by bridging the disciplines of Egyptology and cognitive studies, using the tools of the latter to elucidate the former and thus perhaps arrive at new perspectives on both. From the Egyptological angle, the book deals with the ancient Egyptians' nomenclature for "items in the world" and the relationship between lexicon and the knowledge organization. However, the events occurring in the picture-script render cognitive processes visible to our inspection hundreds of years before they have ripened into the Egyptian language. This "visibility" bears directly on a number of crucial questions in cognitive linguistics and ethnobiology. The book also includes an introduction to the hieroglyphic script.
Book Synopsis Akhenaten: Egypt's False Prophet by : Nicholas Reeves
Download or read book Akhenaten: Egypt's False Prophet written by Nicholas Reeves and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nicholas Reeves’s radical interpretation of a revolutionary king—now available in paperback. One of the most compelling and controversial figures in ancient Egyptian history, Akhenaten has captured the imagination like no other Egyptian pharaoh. Much has been written about this strange, persecuted figure, whose depiction in effigies is totally at odds with the traditional depiction of the Egyptian ruler-hero. Akhenaten sought to impose upon Egypt and its people the worship of a single god—the sun god—and in so doing changed the country in every way. In Akhenaten, Nicholas Reeves presents an entirely new perspective on the turbulent events of Akhenaten’s seventeen-year reign. Reeves argues that, far from being the idealistic founder of a new faith, the Egyptian ruler cynically used religion for political gain in a calculated attempt to reassert the authority of the king and concentrate all power in his hands. Backed by abundant archaeological and documentary evidence, Reeves’s narrative also provides many new insights into questions that have baffled scholars for generations—the puzzle of the body in Tomb 55 in the Valley of the Kings; the fate of Nefertiti, Akhenaten’s beautiful wife; the identity of his mysterious successor, Smenkhkare; and the theory that Tutankhamun, Akhenaten’s son and heir to the throne, was murdered.
Book Synopsis Who Were the Pharaohs? by : Stephen Quirke

Book excerpt: EGYPTIAN ARCHAEOLOGY. This is an accessible and informative guide to the major pharaohs of Ancient Egypt, their names and their cartouches. It is a concise guide arranged chronologically. It is illustrated with colour photographs for the first time. It is a perfect reference for beginners and scholars alike. The first four chapters of this book are divided by period, covering 3000 years of history from the dawn of Egyptian writing to the use of royal names under the Roman emperors in Egypt. With the help of ancient hieroglyphic texts and modern research, they give an indepth but accessible history of Ancient Egyptian royalty and society. The final chapter provides an extensive list of royal names and displays the principal cartouches for all the major kings of Ancient Egypt as well as some lesser-known but equally intriguing pharaohs. It also details the key events and characteristics of each reign.
Book Synopsis Jesus in the House of the Pharaohs by : Ahmed Osman
Download or read book Jesus in the House of the Pharaohs written by Ahmed Osman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2004-03-15 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A provocative thesis that the historical Jesus was connected to the royal 18th dynasty of Egypt • Contends that Jesus, Joshua, and Tutankhamun were the same person • Provides evidence from church documentation, the Koran, the Talmud, and archaeology that the Messiah came more than a millennium before the first century C.E. • Shows that Christianity evolved from Essene teachings Although it is commonly believed that Jesus lived during the first century C.E., there is no concrete evidence to support this fact from the Roman and Jewish historians who would have been his contemporaries. The Gospel writers themselves were of a later generation, and many accounts recorded in the Old Testament and Talmudic commentary refer to the coming of the Messiah as an event that had already occurred. Using the evidence available from archaeology, the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Koran, the Talmud, and biblical sources, Ahmed Osman provides a compelling case that both Jesus and Joshua were one and the same--a belief echoed by the early Church Fathers--and that this person was likewise the pharaoh Tutankhamun, who ruled Egypt between 1361 and 1352 B.C.E. and was regarded as the spiritual son of God. Osman contends that the Essene Christians--who followed Jesus’ teachings in secret after his murder--only came into the open following the execution of their prophet John the Baptist by Herod, many centuries later. Yet it was also the Essenes who, following the death of Tutankhamun and his father Akhenaten (Moses), secretly kept the monotheistic religion of Egypt alive. The Essenes believed themselves to be the people of the New Covenant established between their Lord and themselves by the Teacher of Righteousness, who was murdered by a wicked priest. The Dead Sea Scrolls support Osman’s contention that this Teacher of Righteousness was in fact Jesus.

Book Synopsis Pharaohs on Both Sides of the Blood-Red Waters by : Allan Aubrey Boesak
Download or read book Pharaohs on Both Sides of the Blood-Red Waters written by Allan Aubrey Boesak and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the civil rights and anti-apartheid struggles, are we truly living in post-racial, post-apartheid societies where the word struggle is now out of place? Do we now truly realize that, as President Obama said, the situation for the Palestinian people is “intolerable”? This book argues that this is not so, and asks, “What has Soweto to do with Ferguson, New York with Cape Town, Baltimore with Ramallah?” With South Africa, the United States, and Palestine as the most immediate points of reference, it seeks to explore the global wave of renewed struggles and nonviolent revolutions led largely by young people and the challenges these pose to prophetic theology and the church. It invites the reader to engage in a trans-Atlantic conversation on freedom, justice, peace, and dignity. These struggles for justice reflect the proposal the book discusses: there are pharaohs on both sides of the blood-red waters. Central to this conversation are the issues of faith and struggles for justice; the call for reconciliation—its possibilities and risks; the challenges of and from youth leadership; prophetic resistance; and the resilient, audacious hope without which no struggle has a future. The book argues that these revolutions will only succeed if they are claimed, embraced, and driven by the people.
Book Synopsis Jesus, Last of the Pharaohs by : Ralph Ellis
Download or read book Jesus, Last of the Pharaohs written by Ralph Ellis and published by Edfu Books. This book was released on 1997-04-21 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a little-known fact that the exodus of the Hyksos pharaohs from Egypt to Jerusalem is an incredibly similar event to the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt to Jerusalem. Classical historians and theologians will not entertain any connection between the two, because this infers that the Israelite leaders were actually pharaohs of Egypt. However, Ralph Ellis has taken this obvious comparison and demonstrated the royal Egyptian ancestry of the Judaic patriarchs and also of Jesus. Ralph has also uncovered evidence for the New Testament Saul (St Paul) in the historical record, a discovery that brings with it several new accounts of the life of Jesus. Saul, the inventor of Christianity, was actually Josephus Flavius, a well-known historian. Jesus was the governor of Tiberias and owned a castle there; and he may have died during the siege of Jerusalem in about AD70, rather than AD 33 - crucified along with two of his compatriots. Followed by "Tempest & Exodus" and "Eden to Egypt". Latest version v5.6 Hyksos, Shepherd Kings, Jacob, Sea People, Jesus, Saul, Jerusalem, Egyptian False Prophet, historical Jesus.
Book Synopsis The Pharaoh's Daughter by : Mesu Andrews
Download or read book The Pharaoh's Daughter written by Mesu Andrews and published by WaterBrook. This book was released on 2015-03-17 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book in the Treasures of the Nile series Anippe has grown up in the shadows of Egypt’s good god Pharaoh, aware that Anubis, god of the afterlife, may take her--or her siblings--at any moment. She watched him snatch her mother and infant brother during childbirth, a moment which awakens in her a terrible dread of ever bearing a child. When she learns that she is to be become the bride of Sebak, a kind but quick-tempered Captain of Pharaoh Tut’s army, Anippe launches a series of deceptions with the help of the Hebrew midwives—women ordered by Tut to drown the sons of their own people in the Nile—in order to provide Sebak the heir he deserves and yet protect herself from the underworld gods. When she finds a baby floating in a basket on the great river, Anippe believes Egypt’s gods have answered her pleas, entrenching her more deeply in deception and placing her and her son Mehy, whom handmaiden Miriam calls Moses, in mortal danger. As bloodshed and savage politics shift the balance of power in Egypt, the gods reveal their fickle natures and Anippe wonders if her son, a boy of Hebrew blood, could one day become king. Or does the god of her Hebrew servants, the one they call El Shaddai, have a different plan for them all?

Book Synopsis The Hebrew Pharaohs of Egypt by : Ahmed Osman
Download or read book The Hebrew Pharaohs of Egypt written by Ahmed Osman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2003-09-19 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reinterpretation of Egyptian and biblical history that shows the Patriarch Joseph and Yuya, a vizier of the eighteenth dynasty king Tuthmosis IV, to be the same person • Uses detailed evidence from Egyptian, biblical, and Koranic sources to place Exodus in the time of Ramses I • Sheds new light on the mysterious and sudden rise of monotheism under Yuya’s daughter, Queen Tiye, and her son Akhnaten When Joseph revealed his identity to his kinsmen who had sold him into slavery, he told them that God had made him “a father to Pharaoh.” Throughout the long history of ancient Egypt, only one man is known to have been given the title “a father to Pharaoh”--Yuya, a vizier of the eighteenth dynasty king Tuthmosis IV. Yuya has long intrigued Egyptologists because he was buried in the Valley of Kings even though he was not a member of the Royal House. His extraordinarily well-preserved mummy has a strong Semitic appearance, which suggests he was not of Egyptian blood, and many aspects of his burial have been shown to be contrary to Egyptian custom. As The Hebrew Pharohs of Egypt shows, the idea that Joseph and Yuya may be one and the same person sheds a whole new light on the sudden rise of monotheism in Egypt, spearheaded by Queen Tiye and her son Akhnaten. It would clearly explain the deliberate obliteration of references to the “heretic” king and his successors by the last eighteenth dynasty pharaoh, Horemheb, whom the author believes was the oppressor king in the Book of Exodus. The author also draws on a wealth of detailed evidence from Egyptian, biblical, and Koranic sources to place the time of the departure of the Hebrews from Egypt during the short reign of Ramses I, the first king of the nineteenth dynasty.
