The Red Sea Scrolls: How Ancient Papyri Reveal the Secrets of the Pyramids
Author: Mark Lehner
Publisher: Thames & Hudson
ISBN: 0500777020
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 488
Book Description
The inside story, told by excavators of the extraordinary discovery of the world’s oldest papyri, revealing how Egyptian King Khufu’s men built the Great Pyramid at Giza. Pierre Tallet’s discovery of the Red Sea Scrolls—the world’s oldest surviving written documents—in 2013 was one of the most remarkable moments in the history of Egyptology. These papyri, written some 4,600 years ago, and combined with Mark Lehner’s research, changed what we thought we knew about the building of the Great Pyramid at Giza. Here, for the first time, the world-renowned Egyptologists Tallet and Lehner give us the definitive account of this astounding discovery. The story begins with Tallet’s hunt for hieroglyphic rock inscriptions in the Sinai Peninsula and leads up to the discovery of the papyri, the diary of Inspector Merer, who oversaw workers in the reign of Pharaoh Khufu in Wadi el-Jarf, the site of an ancient harbor on the Red Sea. The translation of the papyri reveals how the stones of the Great Pyramid ended up in Giza. Combined with Lehner’s excavations of the harbor at the pyramid construction site the Red Sea Papyri have greatly advanced our understanding of how the ancient Egyptians were able to build monuments that survive to this day. Tallet and Lehner narrate this thrilling discovery and explore how the building of the pyramids helped create a unified state, propelling Egyptian civilization forward. This lavishly illustrated book captures the excitement and significance of these seminal findings, conveying above all how astonishing it is to discover a contemporary eyewitness testimony to the creation of the only remaining Wonder of the Ancient World.

The Kingdom
Author: Paul Sides
Publisher: Rav Sha'ul
ISBN: 1514159597
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 483
Book Description
We are on the verge of the second coming of Yahuah’s chosen King who will rule by proxy over that Kingdom that has been revealed. Will you partake in it? You may if you finish this book series! You will have the tools to effectively overcome The Great Deception and the opportunity to accept the Truth and act on it. What you then do with this information will determine if you are a chosen son destined to rule in The Kingdom of Yahuah. The Kingdom of Yahuah is no different than the physical kingdoms on Earth as they are but “imperfect physical shadows” of the perfect spiritual kingdom. His Kingdom is a fully functional kingdom in every respect! All of these aspects of The Kingdom of Yahuah are clearly laid out in The Bible. This book could be the “Cliff Notes” to that text book (the Bible) on The Kingdom of Yahuah. In this book I am going to clearly define: • The Keys to study – Covenants, Progressive Revelation, Physical to spiritual parallels, and Transposition • The Purpose of Yahuah in creating The Kingdom of Yahuah • The Realm governed by The Kingdom of Yahuah • The Sovereign King of The Kingdom of Yahuah • The Capital City of The Kingdom of Yahuah • The Castle or Temple of The Kingdom of Yahuah • The Altar of The Kingdom of Yahuah • The Seal of The Kingdom of Yahuah • The Standard or Sign of The Kingdom of Yahuah • The Citizens of The Kingdom of Yahuah • The Constitution of The Kingdom of Yahuah • The Holy Days in The Kingdom of Yahuah • The Abomination of Desolation that denied entrance into The Kingdom of Yahuah The Kingdom of Yahuah is not “of this physical world” but rather a spiritual kingdom. You see, this physical creation that surrounds us; which we interact in… that which we can see, feel, touch, and taste is but a “veil” pulled over our eyes to hide true existence. True existence is in the realm of the spirit. Yahuah’s Kingdom is… a spiritual kingdom and Yahuah is a spiritual being (the Creator) whom we cannot “see, feel, hear, smell, or taste” in this physical realm. Therein is the challenge! How can we learn of such a kingdom that is outside our realm of existence? The challenge for Yahuah (if there is such a thing) was: “How to reveal a spiritual kingdom to His sons effectively, so that it could be fully understood BEFORE giving His sons access to it?” Why do we need to understand this spiritual kingdom before we have access to it? Simple: the promises that Yahuah makes to Rav Sha’ul 4 His sons are literally unbelievable. Yahuah simply cannot risk granting us full son ship and access without training because we could not handle it. Once we are begotten in His Image through resurrection, we then are His literal sons with all His attributes and we are eternal! Think about that statement and try and comprehend it if you can.
