Charles Taze Russell[edit]

In 1891 pyramidology reached a global audience when it was integrated into the works of Charles Taze Russell, founder of the Bible Student movement.[15] Russell however denounced the British-Israelite variant of pyramidology in an article called The Anglo-Israelitish Question .[16] Adopting Joseph Seiss's designation that the Great Pyramid of Giza was "the Bible in stone" Russell taught that it played a special part in God's plan during the "last days" basing his interpretation on Isaiah 19:19-20 which says - "In that day shall there be an altar (pile of stones) to the Lord in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar (Hebrew matstebah, or monument) at the border thereof to the Lord. And it shall be for a sign, and for a witness unto the Lord of Hosts in the land of Egypt."[17] Two brothers, archaeologists John and Morton Edgar, as personal associates and supporters of Russell, wrote extensive treatises on the history, nature, and prophetic symbolism of the Great Pyramid in relation to the then known archaeological history, along with their interpretations of prophetic and Biblical chronology. They are best known for their two-volume work Great Pyramid Passages and Chambers, published in 1910 and 1913.[18]

Although most Bible Student groups continue to support and endorse the study of pyramidology from a Biblical perspective, the Bible Students associated with to the Watchtower Society, who choose ’Jehovah's Witnesses’ as their new name in 1931, have abandoned pyramidology entirely since 1928.[19][20]

It's a remarkable study. There is an Egyptian fragment that mentions an area in the pyramid specifically for the Book of Father Enoch, who taught them the formulas needed to build the pyramids, Pi. And that Christ is symbolized in parts of the structure. Pretty neat.

The word "pyramidology" today is often used to describe forms of spiritism, pyramid power, and even astrology. Russell did not believe in any of these. Russell never spoke of "pyramidology"; he did believe in God's witness in Egypt.

The Bing link provided for "charles taze russell tombstone" presents many pictures of Rutherford's monument of the Great Pyramid. That monument is not a tombstone; no one is buried in or under that monument, although many have labeled that monument as being Russell's tombstone, and have claimed that Russell is buried either in that monument or under that monument.
