Egypt knew neither Pharaoh nor Moses Kindle Edition

What if the whole story of the Exodus from Egypt was a fake story, and what if we could prove that it is? Whenever we say ‘the Exodus’ everybody unconsciously and instantly recognizes the story as the fleeing of the Israelites headed by Moses from the grip of Egypt’s ruthless Pharaoh. Thanks to the Church, the Synagogue, the Mosque and of course Hollywood films this Exodus story has sunk deep in the collective subconscious of the masses, so deep that the story of Moses and Pharaoh has turned into an almost unshakable historical truth that once took place in Ancient Egypt. But actually nothing in the ‘milieu of that story’ indicates that it happened in Egypt, except maybe the mistaken association between ‘Pharaoh’ and ‘King’ of Egypt. Likewise, nothing in ancient Egyptian records or its oral tradition say or even allude to the fact that this tale of Moses really happened in Egypt. Even more shocking is the fact that the ancient Egyptian records do not refer to the Kings of Egypt as Pharaohs. Yes, Pharaoh was never a title for Egypt’s king. Linking Pharaoh to Ancient Egypt is merely a myth propagated by centuries of falsehood brought about by misleading interpretation of Biblical history. The only reason we know the story of the Exodus happened in Egypt is because the Bible says so. We keep on believing that is the case because mainstream Egyptologists just went along with the Biblical narrative and absentmindedly designated Egypt’s Kings as Pharaohs. But if we examined the Hebrew text the Bible (currently in our hands) used as a reference we will strangely not find Egypt mentioned in it as the site/land of the Exodus story. The whole mess/deception took place during translating the Hebrew/Aramaic stories into Greek back in the third century BC. This is when Egypt was first hijacked and forcibly placed in the Hebrew Bible as the theater of the Israelite landmark stories. Ironically this whole act of duplicity took place on Egyptian soil and specifically at its legendary library of Alexandria. But what if the Bible as we know it has long been tampered with? • What if the first western translation of the so-called Israelite stories, that came to be known as the Septuagint Bible, was a distorted translation? • What if the Israelite stories we all have been made to believe took place in Egypt simply did not? • What if Egypt was fraudulently introduced in the Bible as the theater of the Israelite stories? • What if the homeland of Judaism and the early Israelites is not Palestine? • What if ancient Egypt never knew any so called Pharaohs? • What if Abraham, Joseph and Moses never set foot in Egypt nor even dreamed about it? What if the whole story of the Exodus from Egypt was a fake story, and what if we could prove that it is?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Ashraf Ezzat, is Egyptian born in Cairo and based in Alexandria. He is graduated from the Faculty of Medicine, Alexandria University. Dr. Ezzat is also an independent researcher in ancient history and comparative religion and mythology. He is a regular guest lecturer at the Egyptian Museum, Bibliotheca Alexandrina and the National Museum of Alexandria.

Keen not to be entirely consumed by his medical profession, Dr. Ezzat invests a lot of his time in research and writing. The History of the ancient Near East and of ancient Egypt has long been of special interest to him.

In his writings, he approaches ancient history not as some tales from the remote times but as a driving force in our existing life, and to him it’s as relevant and vibrant as the current moment.

Through his research and writings, you will find Dr. Ezzat is always on a quest trying to find out why most of humanity’s ancient wisdom & spirituality had been diminished whereas the Judeo-Christian teachings and faith took hold and prospered.

Dr. Ezzat has written extensively in Arabic tackling many issues and topics in the field of Egyptology and comparative religion. Written in English is his latest research and revealed in the book “Egypt knew no Pharaohs nor Israelites”.

He writes regularly for many well-known online websites such as; Veterans Today, Dissident Voice and What Really Happened.

In addition to his Medical Doctorate degree, Ezzat is also an independent filmmaker; he is well trained as a documentary film director and has taken extensive courses in film editing.

His debut documentary film was back in 2011 titled “The Annals of Egypt Revolution” and in 2012 he made “Tale of Osiris”, a short animation for children. In 2013 his short film “The Pyramids: Story of Creation” was screened at many international film festivals in Europe. “Omm Sety: Priestess of Abydos” is another documentary he made in 2015. Dr. Ezzat is working now on his new documentary “Egypt knew no Pharaohs nor Israelites” based on his book.

SPIRITUAL LIBERATION

SPIRITUAL LIBERATION
This is time when mankind must take a closer look into its religious communities, by individuals re scanning their convictions. Both India and Chines religious practices are older than both Christianity and Islam. Monotheism so to speak. Including that copycat of ancient Black religion we refer to as Judaism. With monotheism the world has experienced so much turmoils. Recently there have been attempts to investigate this. Of course the new IT advancement has fostered this. With monotheism it was the new Jewish empire set to rule the world, since the fall of the Roman empire: and it has been doing so for the past millennium since 1TH C AD! It is individual like Ashraf Ezzat, John Kaminski etc. who have took up the stage to counter the mystique that is behind a lot of man kind problems. I encourage those who want to examine their religious stances to read this book, not only for their own ends but eventually mankind

5.0 out of 5 stars A convincing refutation of "Standard History" with incredible ramifications.
Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2015

Dr. Ezzat's work is a very original and thought-provoking book . Its propositions, if considered, would have major ramifications , and would require a complete overhauling of world history, theology, and the veracity of the Jewish religious claim to Palestine.

While it would be expecting too much for the present "history regime" to seriously consider the points the work discusses... not to mention religious institutions... I can't thank Dr. Ezzat enough for an incredibly enjoyable book which caused me to think in new and different channels - always a rewarding experience.

This work demonstrates convincingly that the neither the rulers nor the people of ancient Egypt ever used the phrase "Pharaoh" to describe their kings - and it is lacking on all the monuments they left behind as well. The phrase originates in the Hebrew Bible, of course... so I'll steer clear of the religious angle, but say that even the chronology in the Bible disagrees with what the Egyptians said about themselves and their history. Christian Egyptologists have been grasping at straws for 200 years in an attempt to explain why neither Hebrews, nor slavery, nor the "Biblical Plagues" appear in any extant Egyptian historical account.

Additionally, the "Amarna letters" - which were written to kings or tribal leaders where the Kingdom of Israel was supposed to have been at that time (about 1450 BC), never mention David or Solomon or Hebrews in any fashion... and Israel is, curiously, only noted by its utter absence in these "Amarna letters" - being "ambassadorial communications" written mostly during the reign of Amonhotep IV (Akhenaten) to vassals in the then-Egyptian ruled area now known as Israel/Palestine. I trust the potential ramifications are self evident!

5.0 out of 5 stars Was Jesus an Arabian?
Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2016

Excellent! If you seek the truth, you need to read this book. Writing style leaves a bit to be desired; could use a good editor who is familiar with English idioms. Also, would be better if he left aside the sarcastic comments. However, the facts he asserts and the questions raised by such facts leave no doubt that the historical "facts" in the Old Testament do not survive close scrutiny. The Author does not question that such "facts" and events as set forth in the OT took place, but his questions and "counter-facts" support the book's main theme that such facts and events must necessarily have occurred elsewhere and not in what we know of as Israel and Palestine today.
Any honest review of the OT will demonstrate that it is full of wars, conflicts and utter destruction of life and property directed at the instance of the God of the OT. I have always been bothered by that fact. However, when an honest review of the Qur'an is made, one will see that it, too, entails much the same scenario, also apparently dictated by the God of that Holy Book. In that sense, the OT and the Qur'an fit seamlessly together.
I raise this issue because the Author's theory is that the OT is, in fact, comprised of Arabic or religious tales (history) of an Arabian Tribe in what is now Southwestern Saudi Arabia and Northern Yemen and is full of inter-tribal wars and the like. In that sense, the two (OT and Qur'an) fit seamlessly together.
I have also been bothered by the seeming cruelty and harshness of the OT, especially when compared to the New Testament. However, the same dichotomy is present in the Qur'an: the first part (the Mecca Qur'an) is very peaceful and loving, much like the NT; the second and longer part of the Qur'an (the Medina Qur'an) is, like the OT, not at all peaceful, but full of what appears to be cruelty in the name of religion.
The book does not answer, nor does it pretend to answer, the question raised by the cruelty in both works, but it shows the similarity between the OT and the "Medina" Qur'an, as well as the similarity of the New Testament with the peaceful Mecca Qur'an.
My "take-away" is this: both books show the "justice" of God (if it can be called "justice") without mercy, and both books show the tenderness and mercy of God.
If the Author is correct, and if both books (the OT and the Qur'an) are Arabian in origin, then the concept that Western civilization is based upon Judeo-Christian teachings and history is really more accurately stated as having been based upon Arabic-Christian teachings and history. For,the Israelites, the Author's research shows, are, in truth, descendants of a tribe of Arabians from Southwestern Saudi Arabia and Northern Yemen.
Finally, if all the Prophets in the OT (and even Jesus in the NT) are, as the book purports to demonstrate, really descendants of members of an Arabian tribe, then the Bible and the Qur'an are companion scriptures and the war between those who adhere to the Qur'an and those who adhere to the OT and/or the NT is a war between followers of the same Source of these religious works.

Very interesting. Provides an entirely new perspective from what most of us learned as children. Well written. Well sourced. Definitely makes his point on the term pharaohs. Substantially makes his point on the origin of the Hebrews. I was expecting and hoping for equal elaboration on the when, why and how they made the move to the present day Palestine. What little he covers on this point makes sense but is sketchy. Definitely worth your attention.

5.0 out of 5 stars At last a revelation... the Good Kind!
Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2021

Coming to the study of Bronze Age Egypt late, as an older than usual student, one problem with the Exodus myth always had me puzzled -- Egypt was not a modern "nation" but rather an unusually fractious jumble of city-states going up and down the Nile. The Greeks later called these statelets "nomes". Attempts to make these small, underpopulated groupings a "slave state" had too many problems. Bronze Age specialists had long speculated that slavery in Egypt is either wildly overstated, or just fictional.

With this work, preliminary and leaning on other works, some backed by great antiquity, the problem for me is solved.

The idea that most of the Bible story evolved in Arabia as no spectacular transposition. In our era, Felice Vinci has demonstrated that the works of Homer, specifically the Iliad, took place in the Baltic. Over the years the story reached mainland Greece and Homer assumed the work was local history. Which it was not.

The author here is an Egyptian patriot and sees a far more interesting transposition. And unlike Homer, this one has modern pertinence. The evil men do in the name of God, the gods, or some priestly invention is nothing to take lightly. Read with care. Follow up his references. If you must believe in a god of real estate and picking Most Favored Humans, by all means continue. But know there are more curious than you might think, and it's books like these that are making a new case for a truly decent god, which Exodus does not provide.

Great book!! Always knew that the Israelites/Jewish stories were exaggerated. But had no idea about the sleuth of evidence against it. Tayamon was news to me, I look forward to reading the other books from previous authors on this refutation of biblical nonsense and use it in my studies as a reference point.
