THARU: THE STARTINO POINT OF THE "WAY OF HORUS" Master of Arts, June 2000 Abdul Rahman Al-Ayedi Depariment of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations University of Toronto ABSTRACT This thesis concentrates on the identification of the fortnss of '"ïhani", the capital of the 14* nome of Lower Egypt and the starting point on the Ways of Homs in North Sinai. It attempts to comlate the ancient Egyptian sources with archaeological fieldwork, in order to ülustrate the importance and role of Tharu in ancient Egyptian history. In Chapter 2, ancient references to the "Ways of Homs" are discussed. In addition, an interpretation of the inscriptions of Seti 1 is presented; these reliefs constitute a major source, because they depict the fortresses, stations and waterwells dong the Ways of Horus. Recent mhaaological ahdence provides an identification of at least the Brst two fortresses mentioned, "Tharu" and the "Dweiiin~of the Lion". Chapters 3 and 4 foas on mcient references to "Thacu". as well as the orthognphy and manhg ofthe me. Chapter 4 aiso teviews the scholars' debate ngudiig the identification of Thru; the pdominant view behg that Teli Abu-Seifa wuancient Thm. The hypothesis that Teîi Hiabou 1is acturlty Tham is put focward. Chapter 5 disaisses the SCA excavations et TeU Abu-Seifk, revealing a Graeco-Roman fortress, settlement, magazines and hahour. In Chapter 6, the SCA excavations at Tell Haboua 1 are reviewed. The remains inciude a New Kingdom f0rtms - buiit on Hyksos mmains - settlement, magazines, granaries and tombs. Chapter 7 briefîy highiights the recent discovenes at Tell Haboua [I, which revealed a derNew Kingdom fotfress datuig to the timt of Seti I, as well as magazines and a settlement. This Fomeat mry k identifieci as the "DweUing ofthe Lion", the second station on the Ways of Horus. nie discovcfies at Td Haknia 1and II, samgthen the argument that Tell Haboua 1 may be identifiw as mcient Tham, the starting point on the Ways of Horus. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Thae M a nrimba of people who have hdpai me in complethg thhi thesis.

PREFACE The discussion set out in this thcst's fo- upon the idaaincation of Thcuu. In my work, 1 have chosen to translate the wm of 13nv as "Thant', ratha than as the mon common "Tjrni". In myanciait Egyptian words, the t and t weit used intcrchmgeably. It appears that the & sound nom the ancient Egyptian langage husurvived in modem Arabic, dong with a number of other lm of the ancient Egyptian alphabet Indeed, the letter a ("th") occun in classical Arabic and is pronouncd by modem Egyptians as 'Y'. Thus, it appean that these bowids may replace each other. niae arc a numba ofancientEgyptian plrce names that hclude the (-sound, which have Junm*d into mhtria vutdy unchangecl, exœpt that the modem pronunciation uses a 'Y.

  • The Book of Hebrews: Part 1 of 4 Lecture Video Transcription by Dr
    The Book of Hebrews: Part 1 of 4 Lecture Video Transcription By Dr. D.A. Carson Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School In a book this long, transparently, we can’t go through every paragraph, every verse, so we're going to focus on certain crucial passages and to catch the flow of the argument through the book, the analytical outline will be a huge help. So what do we make of this book? Its readers, transparently, were an assembly, a congregation, or possibly more than one congregation, of Christians who at one time had been under persecution, but for whom the persecution had lightened up in more recent times. There is a considerable dispute in the commentaries as to whether these are Jewish Christians or gentile Christians. If they are Jewish Christians, they are Jewish Christians who are tempted to return to the social safety of their own Jewish communities, regaining the synagogue practices – or if they’re living anywhere near the temple, the temple practices – and so forth that were once at the heart of their religious life, but which in some measure they abandoned as Christians. Now they're tempted to return to them and the author sees this as a defection from the faith. Alternatively, if they are gentile Christians, they’re gentile Christians who are attracted beyond Christianity to a kind of Jewish form of Christianity taking on Jewish practices especially connected with the temple. In my view the former analysis squares with the facts a little better, but it won't make much difference to the overall argument of the book.

  • Paul's Panegyric for the Messiah
    Paul’s Encomion for the Messiah: Colossians 1:15-20 as ὁ βασιλικὸς λόγος ABSTRACT The conceptual and linguistic resources for understanding the Christ-hymn of Colossians 1:15-20 is not ‘Wisdom-Christology’ or Middle-Platonic speculation upon intermediary figures but is, rather, found in the ancient practice of praise of kings, emperors, and rulers. Hellenistic kings and Roman emperors were often assimilated to particular gods and thereby received honors – including hymnic praise – reserved for deities. Similarly, Jews often praised both past kings and the hoped-for coming messianic king through hymns – most notably in poetic seams in the Pentateuch and in the Psalms. One frequently finds the following reasons for praising the king in most hymns: a) the king is a vicegerent of a god; b) the king upholds and sustains the created universe or oikoumene; c) the king is a worthy ruler and benefactor who has bestowed gifts of harmony and peace to his subjects. All three reasons are paralleled in the Christ-hymn of Col. 1:15- 20. Paul’s praise of the Messiah in the Colossian Christ-hymn is a creative development of Jewish Messianism and Hellenistic-Roman kingship ideology and counters the Colossians’ preoccupation with other powers as it allows them to participate in the rule of Christ as the only true king’s rule. According to Pliny’s report to Trajan, the early Christians “were in the habit of meeting on a certain fixed day before it was light, when they sang in alternate verses a hymn to Christ, as to a god (carmenque Christi quasi deo)” (Letter 10.96; cf.

  • Law in Ancient Egyptian Fiction
    LAW IN ANCIENT EGYPTIAN FICTION Russ VerSteeg* INTRODUCTION The spirit of ancient Egypt has captivated most of us at some time. Pyramids, mummies, pharaohs, hieroglyphs, and the romance of archaeology mesmerize us and kindle our imaginations. Egypt seizes us with its powerful magic and mystery. Even before Jean Francois Champollion achieved his first major philological breakthroughs in deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphs in the 1820s, people were fascinated by the physical vestiges of ancient Egyptian culture and civilization: its art, artifacts, and architecture. However, once Champollion's work began to bear fruit, a new world of Egyptology burst onto the scene. Prior to Champollion, almost all Egyptolo- gists had been anthropologists and/or archaeologists. Now philology provides access to the writing of the ancient Egyptians; and, a variety of types of writing have survived.

  • Pharaoh Chronology (Pdf)
    Egypt's chronology in sync with the Holy Bible by Eve Engelbrite (c)2021, p1 Egypt's Chronology in Synchronization with the Bible This Egyptian chronology is based upon the historically accurate facts in the Holy Bible which are supported by archaeological evidence and challenge many assumptions. A major breakthrough was recognizing Joseph and Moses lived during the reigns of several pharaohs, not just one. During the 18th dynasty in which Joseph and Moses lived, the average reign was about 15 years; and Joseph lived 110 years and Moses lived 120 years. The last third of Moses' life was during the 19th dynasty. Though Rameses II had a reign of 66 years, the average reign of the other pharaohs was only seven years. Biblical chronology is superior to traditional Egyptian chronology Joseph was born in 1745 BC during the reign of Tao II. Joseph was 17 when he was sold into slavery (1728 BC), which was during the reign of Ahmose I, for the historically accurate amount of 20 pieces of silver.1 Moses (1571-1451 BC) was born 250 years after the death of the Hebrew patriarch, Abraham. Moses lived in Egypt and wrote extensively about his conversations and interactions with the pharaoh of the Hebrews' exodus from Egypt; thus providing a primary source. The history of the Hebrews continued to be written by contemporaries for the next thousand years. These books (scrolls) were accurately copied and widely disseminated. The Dead Sea Scrolls contained 2,000 year old copies of every book of the Bible, except Esther, and the high accuracy of these copies to today's copies in original languages is truly astonishing.

  • A Christian Perspective on Islam
    A CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVE ON ISLAM Chawkat Moucarry1 Islam claims that Judaism, Christianity, and Islam itself are three God-given religions. All prophets (including Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad) preached essentially the same message: God is one, and everyone must obey and worship him because on the day of judgment people will be sent to paradise or to hell according to whether or not they believed in their Creator and complied with his laws. This theological inclusiveness is only apparent since Islam is believed to be the only saving religion (3:19, 85).2 It comes at an exceedingly high price for the Christian faith. Indeed, Islam denies the reliability of the Christian Scripture, which contradicts the Qur’an on at least three key issues: God’s holy Trinity, the uniqueness of Jesus Christ, and God’s saving grace supremely demonstrated in the death and resurrection of Christ. The first four sections of this essay examine and respond to Islamic criticisms of the Christian faith. In its own way, Christianity is no less exclusive. As Eckhard Schnabel puts it, The message of the early Christian mission is “exclusive” in terms of the offer of the forgiveness of sins, salvation and justification on judgment day by faith in Jesus the crucified and risen Messiah; it is “inclusive” in terms of people of all nations, tribes and languages being invited and called to believe in Jesus Christ.3 The New Testament presents Jesus Christ as God’s perfect and final revelation for all nations, which rules out any further divine revelation, including Islam. Nevertheless, as a world religion Islam cannot and should not be dismissed without thoughtful and courteous engagement.
