THE “FALL” OF ANCIENT EGYPT

The “FALL” of Ancient Egypt

According to Egyptologists, Historians and Archaeologists (and few others too I suppose), Egypt’s ancient civilization began its modern-day demise approximately 4,000 years ago[1], and wholly culminated approximately 3,000 years ago.  And what is more and more commonly being attributed to this demise, is a tragic and massive shift in weather patterns [1].  Yep… “Climate Change”!  The once lush, green and vibrant Nile valley and delta areas began a transition.  A transition that would take several hundred years to come to full fruition, to be overrun with drought and famine.   And of course, there’s no factors such as “Moral Relativism” or “Moral Equivalence”, or is there, behind the ultimate fate of Ancient Egypt?

Now consider what the Bible says happened (or at least began to happen) some 4,000 odd years ago.  What on earth could I be talking about?  Famine, drought, pestilence, TRAGEDY begins in approximately 2,000 AM (AM = Anno Mundi = year of the world[2], or years from creation / Adam).  Joseph, who would eventually become second in the land of Egypt, second only to Pharaoh himself, was born sometime in 2179 AM[3] or in c.~ 1,782 B.C.…

Bible review, WHY did Joseph’s family come to Egypt?  FAMINE, read Genesis 42…  Also, why did Moses (and when), under the guidance of the Lord of Hosts, G-d (Christ), lead the Israelites out of Egypt? Some indications of time frames for Moses birth, range from as early as 1592 B.C. {2369 AM} to as recently as 1144 B.C. {2817 AM}, ergo time frames (the when, for Moses leading the Exodus out of Egypt) are between 1512 BC to as recent as 1064 B.C.  (According to Exodus 7:7 Moses was 80 years old when he spoke to Pharaoh. Adding 80 years to the estimated date of Moses birth, provides us with the above noted date range).

Why does any of this matter?  And is it not important that the date range between the oldest date and the most recent date spans some 450+ years?  Why?  Why should a 450 or even 500-year variance matter?  The Egyptologists, Historians and Archeologists claim that Egypt’s demise began some 40 centuries’ ago (1962 AM / 2000 B.C.), BUT, they also say that the culmination was about 3,000 years ago (2961 AM / 1000 B.C.).  These date ranges are, at the very least, not in disagreement with the Biblical accounts.  So again, does a 450 date range mean that the Biblical account is not plausible?

Think about it this way folks (either way), some 3500 ish years ago G-d (Christ), using His chosen vessel Moses lead His CHOSEN people the Israelites out of Egypt.  And He {G-d (Christ)} did so after the Egyptians (under the tyranny of the Pharaoh) rejected G-d (Christ) and the People of G-d.  Do you really want to go down that same path?  I for one do not.

Consider this if I be wrong, and the G-d of the Holy Bible Jesus Christ / Yeshua Ha Mashiach (Rabbi Yeshua Bar Yosef) is little more than some fanciful character from a wannabe fairy-tale, I have lost nothing by devoting my life to following Him.  The moral guidelines of the most basic of ancient human laws, the 10 Commandments, are an awesome set of standards.  On the other hand, if the nay-sayers be wrong about the accuracy, authenticity and legitimacy of the Holy Bible, they stand to lose everything.

“No Jesus, NO peace” and yet, “Know Jesus, KNOW peace”

How does one get to “know” Jesus?  Simple, invite Him into your heart, as Jesus says: “Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.” [Revelation 3:20 NIV]  How can be assured that this Jesus stuff means anything?  Well because the Bible tells us so, as the Apostle Paul wrote:

“If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.” [Romans 10:9-10 NIV]

And for those of you who say to me, I can’t be bothered reading the Bible, “it’s confusing” or “it’s a waste of my time”, may I draw your attention to what the Bible says about wisdom: “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” [Proverbs 9:10 NIV]

If nothing else, PLEASE read two chapters from the Bible – (don’t own one, sorry NO excuse, if you’re reading this, you can access this: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%203:16&version=NIV) John 3 and John 14!

John 3:16 says:  “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”

And John 14:6 says: “Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

Well that’s it, that’s Da Bauz’s Take on, “The “FALL” of Ancient Egypt” – this 7th day of January 2013 © 2013, All Rights Reserved. wr (Da Bauz, Christian Zionist “creationist” too!)
