What does that have to do with the Exodus or Jewish slaves? The Bible narrative can't even name the Pharaoh.

Like the name of Mosheh and him being adopted by the royal dynasty?
Or that there were both a Pharaoh and a king in Egypt at the same time?

But I've noticed you have a tendency to state

contradicted not only by a 2nd grade level logic... but your own links as well.

So...how can you get anywhere educated
when all you do is repeat this 2-track mindless babble?

There are many theories about who built Egypt's pyramids, including large teams of enslaved Jewish people

No such claim exists in the Bible. So why are you trying to imply it was?

Did you see the word "theories"? NOT Bible.

Seems as if you are trying to imply it is. Where else would we have gotten that "theory" from?

The people who claim the Jews built the pyramids reference mudbricks.. Lucky me I have watched the production of mud bricks.

Your thread doesn't support your cover story.

give him/her/it a CHANCE ----why are you trying to close up
your delightful bicker----dingy?

Because unlike you I have other things to spend my time on.

good boy-----run along

But I like talking to YOU, grandma.

wash your hands

And destroy the good bacteria that God created????

Maybe surada was right about you. Maybe you are upset because you do believe the Jews built the pyramids. And that's why you are so out of sorts today. Is that it?

there is a HOUSING SHORTAGE in my city. Even way back when Charlton Heston
was Moses------people wasted livable space in the middle east. Today they are
doing the same thing-----TUNNELS----beautifully designed TUNNELS---
WASTED!!!!!!!

That's nice, grandma.

you failed you lessons AGAIN dingy-------wash your hands

Didn't I already address that, grandma?

no

Sure I did. It's in the quote chain, grandma.

did you explain it to Surada?

She never told me to wash my hands, grandma. So, no.

why would she ? does she care? btw---wash behind your ears

Don't know. I'm still wondering why you care what Christians believe. Oh yeah... evangelizing.

I washed behind my ears this morning after I played golf, grandma.

[Papageorgio]

There is NO WAY ancient humans could have constructed something as massive and complex as the pyramids.

The only logical explanation is that Ancient Aliens constructed the pyramids on their planet and transported them to Egypt.

Now that is some really funny BS! Thanks for the laughs!!

Of course it does. That doesn't prove plagiarism, but it certainly suggests it. Especially in this case, considering the geographic proximity.

Moreso since they have the Ugarit tablets from Ras Shamra.

Quartz Hill School of Theology

www.theology.edu

Excerpt:

In the Late Bronze Age (c. 1400 BC) when Ugarit flourished, Cyprus was the main exporter of copper, the base of Ugarit's economy. The Cypriote port of Famagusta faces Minet el-Beida and Ras Shamra some 100 miles away. Cypriot artifacts, abundant at Ras Shamra, indicated a close connection with Cyprus. Schaeffer instinctively turned his attention to the eastern tip of Cyprus to seek the connecting link with Ras Shamra. he found it at Enkomi, the site of the ancient Cypriote capital of Alasia. After preliminary reports, the series Alasia was launched in 1969 on the occasion of the 20th archeological expedition to that site.

For understanding the text of the Hebrew Bible and its Canaanite background, there is no more important source than the tablets of Ugarit.

The Importance of the Ugaritic Tablets for Biblical Studies

Decipherment of the Tablets

It was on May 14, 1929, as the dirt was being cleared from the floor of what had once been a building that the first clay tablets were found. The texts, together with their written substance, appeared to come from the 14th and 13th c. BC.

No doubt Schaeffer was thrilled to have discovered the ancient texts as well as artifacts. Yet the real significance of the texts did not become evident until the writing was examined in detail. Schaeffer himself was an archeologist, not a linguist; he entrusted the examination of the texts to Charles Virolleaud, the local director of the Burearu of Antiquities, who was skilled in the ancient languages and scripts of the area. As Virolleaud examined the tablets, he recognized immediately that he was faced with a significant discovery. The tablets contained cuneiform writing, which was known well enough from the multitude of texts recovered from other excavations. But the writing on these texts from Ras Shamra was entirely different from any of the other forms of cuneiform Virolleaud had ever seen. Instead of the several hundred different symbols typical of the normal syllabic cuneiform script, these newly discovered tablets contained fewere than 30 distinct symbols. It appeared, in other words, that the tablets contained writing in a kind of cuneiform alphabet.

After determining the apparently alphabetic character of the writing Virolleaud then faced the dauntng task of deciphering the script. He was able to make only a little progress in the first weeks, but as a service to scholars, he published the texts, providing photographs and copies of the inscriptions for examination by his colleagues. The most remarkable part in the story of the decipherment was played by Hans Bauer, who received a copy of Virolleaud's photographs and transcriptions on April 22, 1930.

Bauer brought an extraordinary background to his role as decipherer. Then 51, he was Professor of Oriental Languages in the German universty of Halle. He was multilingual, having mastered some East Asian languages in addition to the Semitic languages. But perhaps his most important skill had been honed during service in the German armed forces in World War I. He had been engaged in cryptanalysis, or code-breaking, for German intelligence. That experience had taught him the value of using a statistical method to crack codes. Five days after receiving copies of the texts, Bauer succeeded in assigning phonetic values to 20 of the cuneiform symbols, or about 80 percent of the signs used on the tablets. His work was refined and corrected in some details by others: Edourard Dhorme in Jerusalem and Virolleaud in Latakia put the finishing touches to Bauer's decipherment. From the summer of 1930, the clay tablets recovered from Ras Shamra by Schaeffer's team could be translated and read.

surada it would only make sense that the mythologies coming out of that region of the world at about the same time would have common roots and plenty of overlap.

Mythologies and legends and history do not have to be close geographically
in order to have apparent common roots and OVERLAP---they are the product
of Human minds and perceptions. EVEN DREAMS from the "four corners of
the earth" overlap in content <<<<also products of human mind and perception.
Thus for OVERLAP---you can review the BHAGAVID GITA and find just as much
on biblical overlap as overlap with the Egyptian and Mesopotamian literature.
The conclusion that the literatures were INFLUENCED by each other is----VERY FAULTY.
Even psychotic delusions tend to overlap ----one nut to the other

True, but that's case by case. When we have two mythologies originating close in time and space that share many esoteric details, that is a good indicator of common roots and overlap.

for further insight-----read Erich Fromm Erik Erikson Freud "on dreams" The symbols
and the themes that the HUMAN mind CONSTRUES whether from myth or actual history
are not endless. As I have stated----even psychotic delusions, across the board, culturally and
geographically------share details.
