Rev 3:14
It's so stupid to explain ancient Egyptian culture and religion with other religion which appeared 2000 years after and in different location and almost no records of Egyptian culture existed when Christianity was written. It's just pathetic.

So your blind devotion to assumptions is duely noted.
One need not assume the obvious based on over 800 posts.

Christ is the fulfillment of these other beautiful stories! Besides if they said/did the same thing who cares? It would be weird to meet someone who worships Horus and see how similar it is...just kind of funny...like, 'I totally respect your decision and right to worship that myth' on both sides hehe. That silly person thinks Horus/Jesus walked on water and raised the dead and called 12 disciples and died for our sins and preached love and forgiveness, everyone knows that was the other one of them! Rather pointless.

Manetho: 3rd century BC
Book of Jasher: Book of Jasher written and compiled by Moses [and finished by Joshua] 16th century BC, covering the times of Egypt from 35 years after the fall of the Tower of Babel to the time of Israel going into Canaan under Joshua.
-and others, of Greece, who did write about Egypt, like Herodotus, fifth century BC.

Yeah, not even close. More like 16th Century CE, but really it was 14th Century CE (1391 to be exact) , but who am I to quibble about two centuries?

Yes, by Moses, an adopted Egyptian prince, who was educated in all the wisdom and knowledge of Egypt, who led Israel out of Egypt, with the spoils of Egypt pocketed, to pay for their slave labor years in Egypt.

Amazing how the two main heroes of the OT were both murderers?

Moses and David
