Ancient Egyptian Religion

by Iman El-Sharkawy

"The Egyptian believed in One God, who was self existent, immortal, invisible, eternal, almighty, and inscrutable; the maker of the heaven, earth, and underworld; the creator of the sky and the sea, men and women, animals and birds, fish and creeping things, trees and plants, and the incorporeal beings who were the messengers that fulfilled his wish and word.
The heavens rest upon his head, and the earth supports his feet; heaven hides his form, and the underworld shuts up the mystery of him within it."

This book includes the belief of the God Almighty, myths of different gods, the resurrection and immortality, judgment of the Dead, the journey of the Sun God (Ra) at night as well as the new religion of Akhenaten besides, the Egyptian Gods. All these provided with more than 200 pictures from Egyptian tombs, temples and papyri.
