Old Mummies and DNA. In a recent study, a team of German researchers extracted DNA from mummies from the area of Abuser-el Meleq belonging to the pre-Ptolemaic, Ptolemaic and Roman Period. The researchers could obtain DNA from the bones, soft tissue and teeth of more than 90 different mummies.

DNA Testing on Mummies Reveals Surprise Ancestry for Ancient Egyptians. It’s taken over twenty years of trying, but finally scientists have been able to sequence the DNA of an ancient Egyptian mummy—and the results are surprising.

Egyptians share a certain amount of autosomal DNA with Caucasians of the Caucasus Mountains so probably some ancient Egyptians had blue eyes. Blue eyes are portrayed in ancient Egyptian art and Middle Eastern art. The oldest genes for blue eyes are dated 14 000 years and were found in the Caucasus area.

From Egyptian art, we know that people were depicted with reddish, olive, or yellow skin tones. The Sphinx has been described as having Nubian or sub-Saharan features. And from literature, Greek writers like Herodotus and Aristotle referred to Egyptians as having dark skin.

Although Egypt sits in the north of the African continent it is considered by many to be a Middle Eastern country, partly because the main spoken language there is Egyptian Arabic, the main religion is Islam and it is a member of the Arab League.

With the exception of various minority ethnic groups in Iran (one of which is Arab), Iranians are Persian. Persian and Arab histories only merge in the 7th century with the Islamic conquest of Persia.

Egypt. There is a small community of Indians in Egypt, the majority of whom are presumed to be adherents of Hinduism.

Christianity is the second largest religion in Egypt. Verifiable data available from Egyptian censuses, and other large-scale nationwide surveys indicate that Christians presently constitute around 5% of the Egyptian population.

In fact, only two gods are said to have truly died. One is Pan; The God of Nature, The Wild, and The Shepherds. Pan is said to have died when people ceased to worship nature and the wild. People stopped worshiping the nature spirits, the Naiads, the nymphs etc.

As the Word, Jesus was eternally present with God, active in all creation, and the source of humanity’s moral and spiritual nature. Jesus is not only greater than any past human prophet but greater than any prophet could be. He not only speaks God’s Word; he is God’s Word.

Jacobovici and Pellegrino argue that Aramaic inscriptions reading “Judah, son of Jesus”, “Jesus, son of Joseph”, and “Mariamne”, a name they associate with Mary Magdalene, together preserve the record of a family group consisting of Jesus, his wife Mary Magdalene and son Judah.

Jesus is explicitly and implicitly described as the Son of God by himself and by various individuals who appear in the New Testament. Jesus is called “son of God,” while followers of Jesus are called, “sons of God”.

God the Father

The name “Jehovah” appears in Exodus 3:15. “And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel, The Lord [Jehovah] God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me to you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.”

seven angels

Daniel is the first biblical figure to refer to individual angels by name, mentioning Gabriel (God’s primary messenger) in Daniel 9:21 and Michael (the holy fighter) in Daniel 10:13. These angels are part of Daniel’s apocalyptic visions and are an important part of all apocalyptic literature.

The fallen angels are named after entities from both Christian and Pagan mythology, such as Moloch, Chemosh, Dagon, Belial, Beelzebub and Satan himself. Following the canonical Christian narrative, Satan convinces other angels to live free from the laws of God, thereupon they are cast out of heaven.
