#ConnectingTheDots

We will read the scriptures literally as we connect the dots.

Moses’ mother was a Levite, Jochebed (Yo'Cheved, Numbers 26:59), which means, "Yahweh’s honour" or “Yahweh is glory” (NOBSE Study Bible Name List&Jones' Dictionary of Old Testament Proper Names).
2/ Moses' siblings were given in the Hebrew Scriptures as Aharown (Aaron) (Exodus 4:14) and Miryam (Miriam) (Exodus 6:20 and Numbers 26:57-59).

At the age of 40, he fled to Midian where he lived for 40 years (Exodus 2:11-15).
3/ Moses was married to two wives, Ziporrah, the daughter of Jethro, a Midianite priest (Exodus 2:21) and Saba, a Cushite/Ethiopian (Numbers 12:1-2).
4/ Zipporah meant "shining, resplendent, radiant or enlightenment." “Whoever saw her would acknowledge her beauty. She is called Zipporah, meaning "look" and "see" how beautiful!
5/ She is called "the Cushite" (Numbers 12:1) because just as the Cushite woman is distinguished from other women by the color of her skin, so too was Zipporah distinguished from other women by her beauty” (Talmud, Sifre Beha’alotcha 99).
6/ “She was a Cushite as black as a raven. Zipporah was from Midian and they are Ishmaelites who are black because of effects of the sun and its heat…” - Isaac Abarbanel (1437-1509).
7/ "There are those that say that Moses had ruled over Cush and taken to wife a Cushitess. The correct explanation in my view is that the Cushite woman [about whom Miriam and Aaron spoke] is Zipporah for she was a Midianitess, and the Midianites are Ishmaelites.
7/ contd They dwell in tents and due to the heat of the sun they have no white skin whatsoever. Zipporah was black and similar to a Cushite woman." - Abraham Iben Ezra (1080-1164)
8/ “Midiates were descended from Midian, who was the son of the Hebrew patriarch Abraham by the latter’s second wife, Keturah (Genesis 25:1-2).
8/ contd Jethro, priest-leader of the Midianite subtribe known as the Kenites, & his daughter Zipporah (a wife of Moses), influenced early Hebrew thought: it was Yahweh, the lord of the Midianites, who was revealed to Moses as the God of the Hebrews.” - Encyclopædia Britannica.
9/ Based upon the meaning of Zipporah ("shining, resplendent, radiant or enlightenment"), one is bound to consider her as the renamed Nefertiti, who was the wife of King Akhenaton (formerly Amenhotep IV; reigned c. 1353–36 BCE) of ancient Egypt and also hailed for her beauty.
10/ Nefertiti flourished 14th century BCE and her name translated as “a beautiful woman has come” - britannica.com/EBchecked/topi…
11/ Jethro is “Yithro” in Hebrew & it means “eminent or excellency” - a title of respect, not a name (NOBSE Study Bible Name List and Jones' Dictionary of Old Testament Proper Names).

His actual name was "Reu-El/Ragu-El," (Exodus 2:18) which means "friend of the Divine."
12/ The Abrahamic God’s glory being mentioned in the name of Moses’ mother, Yo'Cheved (Yod Chehbed), is that of ancient Egyptian YAO/IAO/Amun/Atum/Amen because the deity only revealed himself later to Moses on Mt. Sinai (Exodus 3:13-15 and 6:3).
13/ The mythical Moses’ father is given as the little known, Amram, a member of the Levite lineage (Exodus 2:1 and Numbers 26:58).

Amram was the son of Kohath, who was a son of Levi.
14/ Yo'Cheved was a daughter of Levi (Numbers 26:59), the son of Leah (Genesis 29:34) because the original Levi had come to Egypt 430 years earlier (Exodus 12:40) and therefore Levi could not have been the father of Yo'Cheved.
15/ Yo'Cheved (Shifrah/Shiphrah) and her daughter, Miriam (Puah), are accredited as being midwife and nursing maid, respectively (Exodus 1:15).
16/ Rashi, a Reform Jewish independent school offering Hebrew and secular education in an environment infused with Jewish values and learning, states that Yo’Cheved was called Shifrah/Shiphrah after “because she would put the new into proper (physical) condition.”
17/ Miriam was called Puah “because she would make loud noises and speak and articulate to the newborn, as do women who pacify a child that is crying.”
18/ The Jewish Midrash (interpretive writings of the Hebrew Scriptures) says that Shiprah & Puah were the mother & sister of Moses (Yo’Cheved & Miriam), respectively. "The ancient Rabbis identify Shifra with Yo’Cheved, Moshe's mother, & Puah with Miriam, Moshe's sister.
18/ contd
By making a Midrash that Miriam was Puah the midwife, Miriam becomes a much greater figure. She & Yo’Cheved assume the status of the mothers of the entire Israelites."
19/ The Talmud (commentative writings) says: “Because of their devotion to the Jewish people, they were rewarded with grand dynasties. Yo'Cheved/Shifrah becomes the ancestress of the Kohanim (the "priests") & the Levites; Miriam/Puah becomes an ancestress of David.”
20/ The myths surrounding Moses' birth&names

Three months after Yo’Cheved had given birth to the child, the matter became known to the palace, & so she acted quickly before the officers arrived.
21/ contd She took a reed-basket & placed the child inside it & set it on the bank of the Nile. She stationed his sister a short distance away ... (Exodus 2:4).
22/ The daughter of Pharaoh came down along with all the women of Egypt to the bank of the Nile in order to bathe as was their custom, & she saw the basket floating on the surface of the water (Exodus 2:5).
23/ Although the daughter of Pharaoh who rescued Moses is not named, there is one mentioned in I Chronicles 4:18 as Bithiah/Bithiyah, and the Midrash identifies the two as the same person.
24/ The Pharaoh’s daughter dispatched her maid to retrieve it, and she opened (it) and saw the child (Exodus 2:5).
25/ And when the women of Egypt who had come down to the Nile approached in order to nurse him, he refused to nurse from them,...in order to restore him to the breasts of his mother.
26/ His sister asked the daughter of Pharaoh, ‘Shall I go & summon for you a nursemaid from the Israelites?’ (Exodus 2:7) She responded, ‘Go!’ She went & summoned his mother (Exodus 2:8).
27/ She (the daughter of Pharaoh) said, ‘Take the child & nurse him for me, & I will pay you a wage of two silver pieces daily.’ (Exodus 2:9)
28/ Two years later she brought him to the daughter of Pharaoh, & he became her son, & she named him Moses, ‘because I drew him up out of the water’ (Exodus 2:10).
29/ The symbol of ancient Egypt was the Lotus&Papyrus, & the ark in the bullrushes was symbolic for the birth of royalty, humankind & death, while #Moses is found in a reed-basket floating within water. The papyrus represents Lower Egypt & the lotus represents Upper Egypt.
30/ The Talmud's account: “His father named him Hever, because it was on his account that he was reunited with his wife; his mother named him Jekuthiel because she suckled him herself;
30/ contd

his sister named him Jered because she descended to him at the river in order to learn his fate; Aaron named him Avi Zanoah because ‘my father abandoned my mother and then returned to her due to this (one)’;
30/ contd

Qahat his grandfather named him Avi Gedor because it was due to him that God repaired a breach in (the security of) Israel, for the Egyptians would no longer cast their male infants into the Nile;
30/ contd

his nanny named him Avi Soco because a deity concealed him in thatch-work from the enmity of the Egyptians (all of these names emanate from 1 Chron 4:18); and Israel named him Shemayah ben Natanel for it was in his time that God hearkened to their groans.
30/ contd

When he (Moses) was three years old, Pharaoh was seated at his table ready to eat." –

i.(a) Bithiyah (ancient Egyptian) - her name means, “daughter of the pre-Israelite name of Yah/IAO” according to the Talmud & Christian Concordances. ‘Bat-Yah,’ Daughter or house of the deity
31/ contd

i (b) Yo’Cheved (Hebrew) - her name means, “Glory of the pre-Israelite name of Yah/IAO.” Also known as ‘Shifrah.’ Before they knew the deity as YAHOVAH, the Hebrews worshipped the Canaanite deities, the male Baal & the female, Ashtoreth (Joshua 24:2 & Exodus 6:3, 6-7).

31/ contd
vi (a) Bithiyah (ancient Egyptian) - later married to Mered/Caleb, the son of Ezrah of the tribe of Judah (1 Chronicles 4:18). 'Caleb is also called (I Chronicles 4:5) "Ashhur," because his face became black.
31/ contd
vi (b) Yo’Cheved (Hebrew) - married to Amram a Levite & Levites were initiates of Egyptian Temple Greater Mysteries. Amram might mean, "high people, or people exalted."

Amram was the son of the union between Ankhenaten & Kiya.

vi (b) Yo’Cheved (Hebrew) - her daughter was Miriam (Mary in English, Maria/Mariam in Greek), a Levite also married to Caleb (Joshua 14:6), which was an abomination.
31/ vi (b) A priest was not permitted to marry a widow, a divorcee or a prostitute. He could marry a virgin provided she was not a foreigner (Lev. 21:7, 13, 14). It appears that a later provision permitted him to marry the widow of another priest (Ezek. 44:22).

31/ contd

viii (b) Yo’Cheved (Hebrew) - saved the mythical Moses life as Shifrah&Yocheved by giving birth to him (Exodus 2:2) hiding him (Exodus 2:2) & later nursing him (Exodus 2:8).
32/ From these 8 striking similarities around a conduct towards Moses, the names of the two women are Egyptian honouring the ancient Egyptian deity well before Yahweh was known to Hebrews.
33/ Before the #AbrahamicGod revealed itself to Moses, Hebrews worshipped the Canaanite deities, the male El/Baal&the female, Ashtoreth.

In another thread, Canaanites will be proved to be Africans & a tributary of Egyptians.
34/ "And Joshua said to all the people, "Thus says the divine of Israel, 'Your fathers lived of old beyond the Euphrates, Terah, the father of Abraham & of Nahor; & they served other gods (of Africans)." (Joshua 24:2).
35/ “And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, & to Jacob, as the Divine; but by my name Yahweh I was not known to them.” - Exodus 6:3, 6-7.

This provides the clear evidence that Bithiyah, the Pharaoh’s daughter, is the same person as Yo’Cheved, Moses’ mother.
36/ The circumstances of Moses’ birth were directly derived from the birth narrative of the third Akkadian King Sargon I (2,334–2,279 BCE), who established his kingdom in 2,200 BCE & conquered Egypt in 2,323 BCE after having become king of Akkad in 11 years earlier.
37/ The account ascribed to himself was: "I am Sargon, the mighty king, King of Agade. My mother was a Vestal (of lowly birth); my father I knew not; while my father's brother dwelt in the mountains.
38/ In my town Azupirani it lies on the banks of Euphrates my mother, the Vestal, conceived me. Secretly she bore me. She laid me in a basket of sedge, closed the opening with pitch and lowered me into the river.
39/ The stream did not drown me, but carried me to Akki, the drawer of water. Akki, the drawer of water, in the goodness of his heart lifted me out of the water. Akki, the drawer of water, as his own son he brought me up. Akki, the drawer of water, made me his gardener.
40/ When I was a gardener Istar fell in love with me. I became king and for forty- five years I ruled as king. In the palace of Sennacherib at Kouyunjik [Kuyunjik], I found another fragment of the curious history of Sargon...
41/ This text relates that Sargon, an early Babylonian monarch, was born of royal parents, but concealed by his mother, who placed him on the Euphrates in an ark of rushes, coated with bitumen, like that in which the mother of Moses hid her child (see Exodus ii).
42/ Sargon was discovered by a man named Akki, a water-carrier, who adopted him as his son, and he afterwards became king of Babylonia....
43/ The date of Sargon, who may be termed the Babylonian Moses, was in the sixteenth century B.C. or perhaps earlier." - British Assyriologist Dr. George Smith, quoted by D. M. Murdock, freethoughtnation.com/forums/viewtop…
44/ It is shown in ‘Earth’s Ancient History’ by L.C. Geerts, that Sargon, as adopted for Moses, was set adrift by his mother in a basket of rushes on the waters of the Euphrates, he was discovered by Akki, the husbandman (the irrigator),
45/ whom he brought up to serve as gardener in the palace of Kish. The goddess Ishtar (the equivalence of ancient Egypt’s Isis) favoured the youth, and he was promoted to the post of cupbearer.
46/ Thus aspiring for the throne he became, at last, king and emperor, renowned as the living deity.
47/ “In the palace of Sennacherib (Assyrian King 705-681 BCE) at Kouyunjik, I found another fragment of the curious history of Sargon, a translation of which I published in the Transaction of the Society of Biblical Archaeology. Vol. 1, pg. 46.
48/ “This text relates that Sargon, an early Babylonian monarchy was born of royal parents, but concealed by his mother, who placed him on the Euphrates in an ark of rushes, coated with bitumen, Iike that in which the mother of Moses hid her child (see Exodus ii).
49/ “Sargon was discovered. by a. man named Akki,. a water-carrier (gardener), who adopted him as his son, and he afterward became King of Babylon.
50/ “The capital of Sargon, (the Babylonian Moses), was the great city of Agadi called by the Semites Akkad - mentioned in Genesis as a capital of Nimrod (Genesis 10), &here he reigned for 45 years. Moses reigned over the people of Israel in the wilderness for more than 40 years.
51/ “Akkad lay near the city of Sippara on the Euphrates & north of Babylon.
52/ “Another strange coincidence is found in the fact that the name of the neighboring above-mentioned city of Sippara is the same as the name of the wife of Moses Zipporah (Exodus 2:21).” - George Smith, Assyria Discoveries.
53/ From John Gray’s Near Eastern Mythology, pg. 54 is taken the following circa 1962 translations:

1.4 “My mother, an enitum (anutum), conceived me; in secret she bore me,
1.5 She set me in a basket of rushes, with bitumen she seated my lid,
1.6 She cast me into the river, which rose not over me,
1.7 The river bore me up and carried me to Akki, the drawer of water.
1.8 Akki, the drawer of water, sifted me out as he dipped his bucket.
1.9 Akki, the drawer of water, took me as his son and reared me,
1.10 Akki, the drawer of water, appointed me as his gardener.
1.11 While was a gardener, {Sun Goddess} Ishtar granted me her ‘ove,
1.12 . . .And for four and years exercised Kingship,
1.13 The black-headed people ruled, I governed, ...”
54/ Then the Sargon Tablet relates the extent of Sargon’s Kingdom of rule over the "black-headed people” to the Amanus Mountains in the west, to the Zagros Mountains in the east, to the Taurus Mountains to the north and the Persian Gulf to the south.
55/ Sargon, whose capital city was Agade, was the destroyer of the ancient cities of the Sumerians, from whom his own people had derived their civilization. This became the beginning of the Akkadian dynasty, around 2,330 BCE.
56/ The Name #Moses

In ancient times, a word or a name is a human construct. Its a state of mind, story & signpost. A story is a picture carrying a hidden message through ages & it requires considerable effort to discover it.
57/ According to literalist religious scholarship, Moses’ name means ‘he who was drawn out of water’ in Hebrew.

This is not correct because an Egyptian princess cannot have named the child in Hebrew, whose people were said to be ‘slaves’.
58/ “This argument can be supported by two further reflections: first, that it is nonsensical to credit an Egyptian princess with a knowledge of Hebrew etymology, &, secondly, that the water from which the child was drawn was most probably not the water of the Nile…
59/ “On the other hand the suggestion has long been made & by many different people that the name Moses derives from the Egyptian vocabulary.
60/ Instead of citing all the authors who have voiced this opinion I shall quote a passage from a recent work by James H. Breasted, an author whose ‘History of Egypt’ is regarded as authoritative.
62/ "It is important to notice that his name, Moses, was Egyptian. It is simply the Egyptian word 'mose' meaning ‘child’ and is an abridgement of a fuller form of such names as 'Amen-mose' meaning ‘Amon-a-child’ or 'Ptah-mose’, meaning Ptah-a-child,
63/ these forms themselves being likewise abbreviations for the complete form ‘Amon- (has-given)-a child’ or ‘Ptah- (has-given)-a-child.’
64/ “The abbreviation 'child’ early became a convenient rapid form for the cumbrous full name, and the name Mose, ‘child’, is not un-common on the Egyptian monuments.
65/ The father of Moses without doubt prefixed to his son’s name that of an Egyptian deity like Amon or Ptah, & this deity name was gradually lost in current usage, till the boy was called ‘Mose’.
66/ The final ‘s’ is an addition drawn from the Greek translation of the Old Testament” - ‘Moses and Monotheism’ by Sigmund Freud (1939) an eminent Jewish scholar & psychologist. Freud was a student of Hayyim ben Joseph Vital (1542–1620), a 16th century rabbi.
67/ Therefore, the name "Moses" was an Egyptian word "moses/messes" meaning “son/born of.”
This was usually combined with the name of a deity e.g. Ah-mose (Amosis), Thut-mose, 18th Dynasty Thothmes i.e. ‘son/born of Thoth’, the deity of writing&learning & the chief deity of Hermopolis, which means "the city of Hermes" in Greek) & Ra-mose (Ramses i.e. ‘son/born of Ra’).
69/ Hermes was associated with Thoth although the ancient Egyptians called the city "Khmunu," which means, "the city of the Ogdoad or Eight." “Ogdoad” means the “eight deities,” i.e. four deities and their consorts.
70/ According to Tim Wallace-Murphy, Hidden Wisdom: The Western Esoteric Tradition (2010), ‘Mos’ is the word for ‘son’ or ‘rightful heir’ in ancient Egyptian.
71/ The Egyptian word for water is 'mu' and 'ses' or 'sus' means 'to save.' Therefore, Moseus/Moses is a name derived from ‘son of ‘ and 'he is saved by water.'
72/ The name Moses is ‘Mosheh’ in Hebrew and has the schema, Mem-Sh-Hey (40+300+5 = 345). The spelling means “Waters-Fire-Womb." This means one who is born of Water (the two sexual “waters” from the parents) and Fire (passion) in the Womb.
73/ Water&the Fire are related to Moses’ state of being when he was initiated (“discovered” as the Hebrews Scriptures say) in the waters&when he later saw a bush was burning. This is exactly in line with John 3:5.
74/ The name ‘Moses’ also has numerically equivalent to the phrase "the Egyptian" “Hey-Mem-Tzaddi-Resh-Yod” (5+40+90+200+10 = 345). 345 is the "reflection" or “back-side” (image and likeness) of 543, the numerical value of “I am that I am,” i.e. the face of the deity.
75/ Moses said, “Please show me your glory.” And he said, “I will make all my goodness pass before you and will proclaim before you my name ‘The Lord.’ And I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.
76/ But,” he said, “you cannot see my face, for man shall not see me and live.” And the Divine said, “Behold, there is a place by me where you shall stand on the rock, and while my glory passes by I will put you in a cleft of the rock,
77/ and I will cover you with my hand until I have passed by. Then I will take away my hand, and you shall see my back, but my face shall not be seen.” - Exodus 33:18-20.
78/ Moses&the phrase "the Egyptian" are a "reflection" or “back-side” of "I am that I am." Therefore, Moses was an Egyptian who discovered the Real or True Self. The burning bush symbolizes the state of having reached the pinnacle stage of his own virtuous development.
79/ Moses was and so is any human being, an image and likeness of the Divine and he "represents a new stage in the development and perfection of human consciousness."
80/ "And the LORD said unto Moses, see, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet." - Exodus 7:1.Therefore, Moses was an individual who discovered his own causative&aspirational self!
81/ Therefore, Moses’ name provides the initial evidence that he was an ancient Egyptian & later assumed a new identity as a result of the Hebrew scribes & copyists!
82/ @ProfFrancesca

Who was the real #Moses? After connecting the dots, here are the details...

Pharaoh Akhenaton’s son, the young Tut-Ankh-Aton/Tut-Ankh-Amen and the scriptural Joshua, whose mother and wife of Akhenaton was Queen Nefertiti, succeeded him in 1361 BCE.
83/ The literal meaning of the name Tutankhamun is "the Living Image of the Divine (Tut - meaning likeness or image; Ankh - meaning life and symbolized by a cross; and amun - the cosmic force Amun)" - Osman, House of the Messiah.
84/ Aton/Aten signified the Egyptian ‘neter’ (the cosmic power) who has no image.

The deity by the Hebrews, who likewise has no image, is called Adon.

So the ancient Egyptian "Aton/Aten" is equivalent to the Hebrew "Adon".
85/ What we find is that the Egyptian "t" becomes "d" in Hebrew. In other words the Egyptian "Aton/Aten" is identical to the Hebrew "Adon/Adonai".

King Tut was of royal descent, the Son of the deity and was born to govern. He was a ‘Christos,’ meaning the "Anointed One."
86/ King Tut-Ankh-Aton was killed for religious reasons after he attempted to reconcile those who were monotheistic (Atonists) & those who were pantheistic.
87/ He was accused of being a deceiver who tried to accommodate the thinking of his father Akhenaton, & was led into Sinai with his serpent headed staff & was later killed at the foot of Mount Sinai by Pa-Nehesy, "Chief Servitor"&"Second Priest of the Aten" of Akhenaton.
88/ Read, Donald B Redford, Akhenaten the Heretic King (Princeton University Press, 1984).

Related to this story is the scriptural tale that Moses fled to the Sinai area after he had killed an Egyptian.
89/ Moses’ successor, Joshua (previously known as ‘Hosea,’ which means ‘saviour’), the son of Nun (which means ‘fish’), was killed by Phineas, the priest of Moses, while the Israelites were still in the land of Goshen in Egypt.
90/ The similarity is too much for coincidence!

As can be noticed, Pharaoh Akhenaton was the #RealMoses!
91/ Akhenaton begat Tut-Ankh-Aton (Joshua) just as King David ("Dalet-Vav-Dalet") was Pharaoh Tuthmose III (1490-1436 BCE) who begat King Solomon (Pharaoh Amenhotep III, 1436-1413 BCE, great-grandson of Pharaoh Tuthmose III).
92/ Psalm 104 borrowed from Akhenaten's ‘Hymn to the Aten.’
93/ Therefore, based on the teachings, the #RealMoses is the masked figure of Amenhotep IV who became Akhenaton (whose wife and son were Nerfetiti and Tut-Ankh-Aton/Tut-Ankh-Amen, respectively) of the 18th Dynasty, whose body was never found after his downfall.
94/ Akhenaton was an ancient Egyptian of noble origin whom the scriptural scribes undertook to adopt & transform into a Hebrew.
95/ “The disappearance of Akhenaton and death of his son, Tutankhamon set the stage for the biblical events around Jewish “Oppression” in Egypt and “Exodus” from Egypt.
96/ While there has been considerable dispute over the dating of the Exodus, a growing number of scholars have come to the conclusion that it was at, or soon after, the time of Akhenaten.
97/ They too believe that there was some direct relationship between the faith of the Israelites and the monotheistic beliefs of the “heretic king” Akhenaton.” – Hidden Wisdom: The Secrets of the Western Esoteric Tradition (2010).
98/ One is advised to read “Moses and Akhenaten: One And The Same Person” by Ahmed Osman, a historian, lecturer, researcher&author. (dwij.org/forum/amarna/1…)

What did Akhenaton taught that was adopted into Judaism?

Lets proceed, princes&princesses, you the people of royalty.
99/ The religion of 18th Dynasty Pharaoh Akhenaton:

1. Akhenaton taught that “Aton was the unseen, almighty & everlasting power that made itself manifest in the form of the solar disk in the sky & was the source of all life in sky and earth & the underworld.
He ascribed to Aten a monotheistic character, or oneness, which he denied to every other god, but when we read hymns to Aten of which the king approved.” ‘Aton’ is an ancient name of the solar cosmic force and who is called Adonai by Hebrews.
2. Akhenaton ascribed to Aton a strict and jealous monotheistic character or oneness overtaking the position of Amen-Ra.
“Akhenaten, king of Egypt (1378-1361 BCE), was the first monotheistic ruler in history, who abolished the worship of the different gods of Ancient Egypt and introduced a deity with no image Aten, the biblical Adonai, to be the sole (cosmic power) for all people.”
3. Had horror of swine connected with the fact that Set wounded Horus when in the guise of a pig. “The pig was an animal sacred to Set, god of chaos. Set took the form of a pig and blinded Horus then disappeared. Eventually Horus regained his sight.
The eyes of Horus were thought to represent the sun&the moon, & the legend of the blinding of the god was an explanation of solar & lunar eclipses. Plutarch says that, once a year, pigs were sacrificed to the moon." - Animals and the Gods of Ancient Egypt by Caroline Seawright.
4. Practiced circumcision for reasons of cleanliness&was long been indigenous in Egypt&no other Eastern Mediterranean people practised it (there was an evidence of circumcision dating back to 4,000 BCE after bodies of Egyptians were exhumed from the earliest prehistoric graves.
The actual performance of the operation by a surgeon is said to be depicted in an Egyptian tomb of the 27th or 28th century BCE in the cemetery of Memphis (The Dawn of Conscience).
"...several Egyptians told me that in their opinion the Colchidians were descended from soldiers of Sesotris. I had conjectured as much myself from 2 pointers, firstly bcoz they have black skins&kinky hair...
& more reliably for the reason that alone among mankind the Egyptians & the Ethiopian have practiced circumcision since time immemorial." (Herodotus, Book II, 104).
5. Moses’ Ten Commandments were derived from ‘Spell 125’ of the ancient Egyptian funerary text known as "Spells of Coming Forth By Day."
6. Akhenaton built a very big temple in his new capital of Khut-en-Aton (‘horizon of Aton’) and later we are told that King Solomon later built a temple in Jerusalem.
7. After Akhenaten was overthrown by a military coup after 17 years of rule after he was rejected by the Atum/Amun priestly class, was forced to abdicate the throne & he left Egypt & took with him a large following, including the temple priests of Aten.
8. Later translators of Exodus 34:29&35 substituted an alternate meaning from horned to beam or “ray of light “And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tablets of testimony in Moses' hand,
when he came down from the mount, that Moses, that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him…And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone: and Moses put the veil upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him.”
In Hebrew, "ray of light" and "horn" are both called "keren" which means, "glorious dignity." The translators may have mistaken "rays of light" for "horns."
In the Greater Mysteries language of ancient Egypt, horns are the sign of the successful neophyte, of one who has passed the dread tests of initiation and quite literally touched divinity.
In ancient Egypt, a horned Hathor are a symbolic of the glorified countenance or illuminated face of the Golden One. Hathor means, “for Horus's enclosure,” was an ancient Egyptian goddess who personified the principles of love, beauty, music, motherhood and joy.
9. Ancient Egyptian priests were the only ones allowed to enter the innermost parts of the temple, the sanctuary.
Before he did so, the priest had to perform a series of procedures like shaving the entire body, abstaining from certain foods, wear only garments of linen and papyrus sandals.
When they were ready to enter the temple, the priest first washed at a stone pool or cistern kept on the premises for just such a purpose.

The Aaronic priests had a similar procedure. Read, Leviticus 16:3-4.
10. The ancient Egyptian deity, “Aten/Aton” was transliterated into the Hebrew title, “Adon,” which was translated into English as "the Lord."

This gave “Adonai” for "my Lord" as a substitute of Yahweh.
Therefore, whenever in the Hebrew Scriptures say, “the Lord” and “my Lord,” in Hebrew it is Adon & Adonai, respectively.

“Moses addresses (the Divine) using the title Adon/Aten (Exodus 4:10,13; 5:22; 34:9; Numbers 14:17; Deuteronomy 3:23; 7:26; 10:17);
Moses, himself, is addressed both by Aaron (Ex.32:22; Num.12:11) & by Joshua (Numbers 11:28) using the title Adon/Aten; & Joshua also addresses (the Divine) using the title Adon/Aten (Joshua 5:14 b; 7:7).
As mentioned above, there is an established relationship between the literature of the Egyptian 18th Dynasty & the Bible. Psalm 104 is an embellishment of the Hymn to the Aten which was found by archaeologists at the city of Akhetaten.” - Ahmed Osman, Moses: Pharaoh of Egypt.
100/ The scriptural Moses was an archetypal Hebrew who embodied the Hebrew nationalistic desire or yearning of fundamental characteristics of a hero in the creation of a new identity and religion. Here are the details....
1. "From the symbolism of the sun as the all-powerful deity, greater than all other heavenly divinities (lights)," (Genesis 1:16 (“And the Divine made the two great lights, the greater light to rule the day, & the lesser light to rule the night; he made the stars also.”)
The ancient Egyptians had elevated the deity Amen-Ra (solar cosmic power) to supremacy over all other deities. "Rule" comes from the Hebrew, “memshalah,” meaning dominion, government.
“The sun to rule over the day, for his steadfast love endures for ever; the moon and stars to rule over the night, for his steadfast love endures for ever” (Psalm 136:8-9).

This is the origin of Judaic monotheism since Hebrews were earlier polytheistic.
2. From the Sumerian ‘Epic of Gilgamesh,’ the allegories of Adam and Eve (“Myth of Adapa”), and Flood of Noah was created.

3. From the Aton/Aten, the nameless and hidden deity of ancient Egypt, we have the Hebrew Adon/Adonai.
4. From the adoption of the birth narrative of Sumerian King Sargon I (2334–2279 BCE) of Agade, “Moses” was born & taken in by an Egyptian princess & became an adopted son at the age of 3 months.
5. From the name, Ahmosis or Ah Mose I (1539-1514 BCE), the creator of the ancient Egyptian New Kingdom, the scriptural scribes and compilers adopted the name for the mythical Moses, the first leader of the Hebrews.
6. From the religious and wisdom teachings of Pharaoh Akhenaton (1364-1347 BCE), the scriptural scribes and compilers created a new organised religion called Judaism using the constructed Moses as the central figure.
7. The Hebrew ‘Chosen People’ theory, which forms the basis of all Talmudic and Judaic mystic writings is not originally Hebrew. Ancient Egyptians likewise believed themselves to be “the peculiar people specially loved by the divinities.”
Ancient Egyptians likewise believed themselves to be “the peculiar people specially loved by the divinities.” "Are you then unaware, Asclepius, that Egypt is the copy of heaven, or, to be more precise, the place where the operations, that govern and put to work the celestial
forces, are transferred and projected down here? Even more so, if truth is to be spoken, our land is the temple of the whole world...Asclepius, 24 (read it in full from online).
Ancient Egyptians (from around 4,500 BCE to around 333 BCE) called themselves Kemetiu (dark-brown skinned divine people), and their country KMT. Greeks converted it to Kemet. This meant 'sacred land of the dark skinned’ or simply “land of the divinities”
The Greek Homer, who came before Herodotus (the known father of European history) described Ethiopians as "The most just of men; the favourites of the gods. Jupiter today, followed by all the divinities, receives the sacrifices of the Ethiopians." - Iliad, 1, 422.
Homer also wrote: "Upon the great Atlantic, near the isle of Erithrea, for its pastures famed, the sacred race of Ethiopians dwell."
"The Egyptians were also the first to introduce solemn assemblies, processions & litanies to the divinities; of all which the Greeks were taught the use by them. It seems to me a sufficient proof of this that in Egypt these practices have been established from remote antiquity,
while in Greece they are only recently known." - Herodotus Book II.
8. During the reign of Thutmose I (1493-1481 BCE), the Hibiru (Hyksos), Exodus occurred in which the ancient Egyptians, expelled them out of their land after being occupied by Hyksos for over 108 years & was recast & became to be presented as Hebrew Exodus.
9. From the ancient Egypt's 'Declarations of Innocence' or 'The Negative Confessions' constructed around 4,100 BCE is Spell 125 of the 'Spells of the Coming Forth by Day' & 'Papyrus of Ani'), one gets the source of the Hebrew Scriptures’ Mosaic Ten Commandments & other Laws.

Finally, the narrative of the personality of #Moses gave Hebrews a new&firm ethno-center of gravity as a people. The personification of Moses’ identity was well crafted out of ancient Egyptian myths, folklore, epics & legends.

#FOCUS, fellow Africans!
