    Judeo-Christian Religions Arose from the Pyramids
  

*by W***I on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 27, 2019*

This is to review and respond to other reviewer’s comments on Ahmed Osman’s “Christianity: An Ancient Egyptian Religion”.Osman’s thesis is that there is no evidence for both the Old and New Testament and that Biblical stories and personalities are based on Egyptian, not Judaic, history that occurred 14 centuries before the Jesus of the New Testament.  Osman makes a case that the story of Moses is based on Pharoah Akhenaten; Jesus that of King Tutankhamun who was Moses’ (Akhenaten’s) son; King David’s story that of Pharoah Tuthmosis III.The story of David and Goliath is taken from the Egyptian “Autobiography of Sinuhe” that took place 1,000 years earlier. The purported apocalypse by King David (Revelations 16:16) over the cities of Megiddo and Qadesh could not have occurred when indicated in scripture because both cities had already been destroyed long beforehand.  Osman says the David/Bathsheba/Uriah story doesn’t exactly fit that of Tuthmosis III/Sarah/Abraham but it is remarkably similar.Unlike most other studies that rely only on Biblical scripture, Osman relies on a number of sources to support his thesis: New and Old Testament scripture, Egyptian records and folk tales, statues and pyramids, the writings of the Church Fathers, the Jewish Talmud, Roman historians, the Dead Sea Scrolls and archeological findings.To support his thesis Osman cites no less than the Apostle Paul himself from Galatians 1:15-17:“15 But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by his grace, was pleased 16 to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, my immediate response was not to consult any human being. 17 I did not go up to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before I was, but I went into Arabia” (aka Egypt).As modern historian Phillip Jenkins points out in his book “The Lost History of Christianity”, Christianity was an Egyptian-centered religion until the Roman Catholic church destroyed the library at Alexandria around 390 A.D. and moved the center to Rome.Following Friedrich Goethe, Christopher Marlowe and Sigmund Freud, Osman postulates a conspiracy theory that both Moses and his son King Tut were assassinated and that the crimes were covered up by writing their murders out of Hebrew history. Thus, the Bible allegedly portrays the founders of Judaism as not the descendants of the murderers but instead those who commanded “thou shalt not murder”.As to the charge that Osman’s book is “not definitive”, he nevertheless meets a legal standard of the “preponderance of the evidence”, as he relies on so much third-party evidence.  Osman’s book would also meet the scientific test of “falsifying” and refuting the Biblical histories of Judaism and Christianity, again because there is almost no third-party evidence otherwise. But Osman’s assassination conspiracy theory would probably not meet the legal evidence standard for criminal cases of being “beyond a reasonable doubt”.Osman’s book does not reflect Biblical minimalism (“they made it all up”) but leans toward a Middle-of-the Road position (“there’s no contrary proof”) but the events happened in another era) rather than Maximalism (“there is definitive proof”).  Osman’s does not advocate atheism or an anti-Judeo-Christian view in his book.As to the charge that Osman is “ambivalent” in asserting “there were two King David’s” and “Three Jesus’s” (Tut, Joshua and Jesus), what he obviously is pointing out is that the fictional Jesus, Joshua and David are similar figures to the real Egyptian characters (Akhenaten,Tut, Tuthmosis III). All were obviously not named “Jesus”.The charge that his method cherry picks evidence for his convenience is not accurate.  He merely points out historical parallels to Egyptian history and asks why is there no report of the Biblical events in the concurrent Talmud and Dead Sea Scrolls.  Yes, Egyptian Osman reclaims Judeo-Christian religion as Egyptian, not Roman, but that is where the non-scriptural evidence lies.This raises a problem in the sociology of knowledge: Egyptian scholars find evidence inferring Egyptian roots to Judeo-Christian religions (Osman, et. al.); American archeologists find evidence of the Biblical account (William Allbright); Germans find “proof” of the “Documentary Hypothesis” (Julius Wellhausen) that the Torah was invented by the Jews in forced Exile in Babylonia to reclaim and assert their bona fide religious heritage and credentials when King Nebuchadnezzar released them to return to Jerusalem.  What is considered “knowledge” depends on the social location of the scholar and each school of thought competing for legitimacy and financial support.Osman is an independent researcher residing in Britain and, as far as I can see, his findings are supportable and credible if for no other reason than he relies on so many third-party sources (the Talmud, Dead Sea Scrolls, etc.).  Osman does “tell his own tales to make a living” but does not re-interpret scriptures “whole cloth”. Rather, he finds a coloring book template in Egyptian history that was enlarged and “colored” in later.  Osman does not try to “refute a (fictional) Santa Claus” but actually confirms there was an actual Moses (Akhenaten) and Jesus (King Tut), but not in the same time period as the Judeo-Christian scriptures.However, even if Judaism and Christianity are allegedly fictional this does not necessarily rule out they may reflect divine providence. As historian Max Weber noted, humans are incapable of knowing all the outcomes of their actions (see Mohammed Cherkaoui, Good Intentions: Max Weber and the Paradox of Unintended Consequences). Thus, Christianity unintentionally became the religion of the Roman Empire despite that Christians were initially persecuted in Rome. One might even humorously say God had the last laugh!  That Judeo-Christian religions may be an unintended outcome of history is, however, not addressed in Osman’s book.  And there was so much book burning by the Romans, the possibility that all third-party evidence of Christianity was exterminated, just as Soviet leader Joseph Stalin erased photos of his political enemies, cannot be eliminated.

    A lot of fascinating history here
  

*by C***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 6, 2021*

Just finished this book. The middle, where the author was telling us that Tutankhamun was really Jesus AND Moses' Joseph, sagged badly because for the life of me, I couldn't determine where he was getting his information. The other parts of the book were much better documented.I'll go along with Thutmose III being King David. That makes perfect sense, and the histories match in all but year. Clearly later people cribbed off history to increase the value of their own.Thutmose IV being the guy who hired Joseph? Check. Joseph = Yuya, check. (Isn't it startling that we have contemporary PICTURES of everyone we can now refer to?) Everyone else up to King Tut, check; I can agree with that, except MAYBE Moses was one of Akhenaten's priests instead of Akhenaten himself, as some current scholars posit.King Tut being Jesus. Um, sorry, but I need to see the historical docs for that. Influence? Yep. The Jews changed over from having a local, physical god-family to a heavenly monotheism at some point (A book that talks about this, "When God Had a Wife," is really interesting until the last part, where it becomes confusing) and yeah, it does seem to have been greatly influenced by Egyptian thought about Aten. (Also note: Egypt was the first civilization to introduce the idea of life after death in its literature.)I've read a few books about the beginnings of Christianity (what a crazy, mixed-up time that was!), and this is the first that clearly points out that Peter's branch was preferred by Big Wigs because John's had everyone in the church being equals. Even the women. ! With Peter you got bishops and elders and regulations and eventually popes, all men, all with power over the "little people" to keep them under their thumbs.This kind of history makes me really MAD, because it points out SOME (a tiny bit) of the massive editing that was done on religious texts in order to mold them into something that gave TPTB more authority and power. I remember my family's preacher giving us a sermon and telling us outright that such-and-such New Testament letter was pure propaganda because the writer was trying to convert Jews. He then went on to say the whole "baby Jesus goes to Egypt" story was a fake because, again, the teller was trying to convert Jews and invoked Moses (whose story invoked Horus!) to do so. That was my first experience of hearing that part of the Bible was fake and/or heavily edited for dark purposes.The guy over at UNC who's written all those books about Jesus, the Bible, etc. Uh, Bart Ehrman, thanks Google. He goes into many other aspects of all this, pointing out the way things have been deliberately changed to fool people. He says this is taught in the first year at religious schools. Why isn't it being discussed in wider arenas? Other books have more examples to show. And there's never ANY historical evidence of a Jesus who lived around 30 CE.The guy with this book wanted to prove that Jesus/Tutankhamen/Joseph lived about 1500 (or was it 1300?) BCE, and it was the echo of his history then that came through the "prophecies" of Isaiah and down to 30 CE, where people didn't actually encounter a real person, but rather were influenced by ancient history (via Alexandrian learning and Egyptian tradition, as well as the ultra-popular Isis/Osiris/Serapis sects, which were very close to what Christianity was teaching), and that the actual person didn't exist in that time period... although the Christ Energy appeared to some people. Well. No way to prove or disprove personal spiritual experiences, is there?Anyway, interesting book, but the middle needed a good editor to point out the need for clear documentation.

    Mindblowing evidence of a stolen religion
  

*by N***B on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 25, 2018*

I have always had a fascination with history. Ancient civilizations & religion are some of my favorites.For someone who was an Apostolic Penetecostal to Atheist, I had spent a few years off & on just researching.Recently I found a video that showed how Christianity is related to the Egyptian Astrology & have a sister-in-law who is studying & teaching Kemetic Yoga- so naturally it opened my mind to study again.This is my first study book in years & probably the best I have read.The detail of this book to explain both stories in the bible with actual historical Egyptian figures is pretty mind blowing. He explains the individual, what they know aboit their life. To the traditions of the time, locations. There is so much information that I will need to reread and take notes a few times.I love that this is written in a way that doesn't bash but to say this is the information we have, here are the studies & what we know.This is not a hard book to read, but if you are not familiar with certain terms or practices used, then there will need to be some research done.I also want to thank the seller for an "in excellent condition" used book.
