Pharaoh

Egypt

Etymology of Egypt

The Pharaohs of the unified Egypt would wear the Pschent, a double crown symbolizing the unity of the two regions.

The unification of these two regions is a significant event in Egyptian history, traditionally credited to the pharaoh Narmer (also known as Menes) around 3100 BCE.

I am what I am

I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people the Israelites out of Egypt.”

11 But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?”

Yahweh YHWH – The Lord God

The Plagues of Egypt - Yahweh sends ten plagues on Egypt to force Pharaoh to release the Israelites, culminating in the death of the firstborn (Exodus 7-12).

Abraham 1

Egypt first discovered by a woman

17 And this because they have turned their ahearts away from me, to worship the god of Elkenah, and the god of Libnah, and the god of Mahmackrah, and the god of Korash, and the god of Pharaoh, king of Egypt; therefore I have come down to bvisit them, and to destroy him who hath lifted up his hand against thee, Abraham, my son, to take away thy life.

god of Pharaoh (king of Egypt)

And the Lord broke down the altar of Elkenah, and of the gods of the land, and utterly destroyed them, and smote the priest that he died; and there was great mourning in Chaldea, and also in the court of Pharaoh; which Pharaoh signifies king by royal blood.

25 Now the first government of Egypt was established by Pharaoh, the eldest son of Egyptus, the daughter of Ham, and it was after the manner of the government of Ham, which was patriarchal.

26 Pharaoh, being a righteous man, established his kingdom and judged his people wisely and justly all his days, seeking earnestly to imitate that order established by the fathers in the first generations, in the days of the first patriarchal reign, even in the reign of Adam, and also of Noah, his father, who blessed him with the blessings of the earth, and with the blessings of wisdom, but cursed him as pertaining to the Priesthood.

27 Now, Pharaoh being of that lineage by which he could not have the right of Priesthood, notwithstanding the Pharaohs would fain claim it from Noah, through Ham, therefore my father was led away by their idolatry;

The Sphinx

Conventional Egyptology dates the construction of the Sphinx to the Fourth Dynasty, around 2500 BC, during the reign of Pharaoh Khafre.

In 1991, Professor Schoch scientifically dated the Sphinx to thousands of years prior to the time of the Egyptian pharaohs, having been constructed at the end of the last ice age.

Pharaohs often claimed to be the personification of Ra on Earth, constructing sun temples like the one in Heliopolis.

Famous Sirian people

Akhenaten, also known as Amenhotep IV, was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh who reigned during the 18th dynasty (c.

After his death, his reforms were largely reversed, and his name was often omitted from the official lists of pharaohs in an attempt to erase his memory from history.

Ezekiel 10

Cherubim

A midrash states that when Pharaoh pursued Israel at the Red Sea, God took a cherub from the wheels of His throne and flew to the spot, for God inspects the heavenly worlds while sitting on a cherub.

Genesis Apocryphon

Abram deduces that he is the strong cedar, and that Pharaoh will seek to kill him while sparing Sarai.

Sarai was very distressed by this dream as they entered Egypt, and for five years was exceedingly careful so that the Pharaoh of Zoan would not see her.

In Column 20, Pharaoh had her brought to him after hearing of her immense beauty.

He asks God to have vengeance and show his power against Pharaoh and his household.

God sends a spirit to torment the Pharaoh of Zoan and the men of his household.

After two years of attempting to understand why his household was afflicted, Pharaoh sent his attendant to Abram and Lot.

Lot tells the attendant the truth, and Pharaoh becomes angry and sends Sarai back to Abram along with a substantial amount of wealth and gifts.

Genesis 12

Abram & Sarai

[9] And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south.[10] And there was a famine extreme and widespread scarcity of food in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn temporarily resides there; for the famine extreme and widespread scarcity of food was grievous in the land.[11] And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a fair woman to look upon:[12] Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they shall say, This is his wife: and they will kill me, but they will save thee you alive.[13] Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister: that it may be well with me for thy sake; and my soul shall live because of thee you.[14] And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.[15] The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.[16] And he entreated Abram well for her sake: and he had sheep, and oxen, and he asses, and menservants, and maidservants, and she asses donkeys, and camels.

[17] And the the LORD Elohim YHWH plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife.

[18] And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What is this that thou hast done unto me?

so I might have taken her to me to wife: now therefore behold thy your wife, take her, and go thy your way.[20] And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him: and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.

When Sarai entered Egypt, she caught the attention of the officials and princes of Pharaoh.

This deception eventually led to the events where Sarai was taken into Pharaoh's house, as mentioned in Genesis 12:19, before God intervened to protect her and her true identity as Abram's wife was revealed.

there were female pharaohs in ancient Egypt.

She is often regarded as one of the most successful pharaohs in terms of trade, building projects, and the overall stability and prosperity of Egypt during her reign.

Another notable female pharaoh was Cleopatra VII, who ruled from 51 BC to 30 BC.

Cleopatra was the last pharaoh of ancient Egypt and played a significant role in the events leading up to the demise of the Egyptian pharaonic rule.

These female pharaohs were exceptions in the predominantly male-oriented ancient Egyptian society, but their reigns left a lasting impact on the history of Egypt.

Book of Genesis
