Akhantan and Moses – the Bible Archaeological Society

On this Stella, from Al -Amrana, Egyptian King Acneton has been offered with his wife Neffetti and his daughters with Sun Discuties.

In the midst of the centuries of traditional worship of Egyptian Pantheun, Egyptian Pharaoh Acantin ruled in his tenure in the middle of the 14th century that his articles were to worship only one God: Sun Discut. Akhantan is sometimes called the world’s first monopoly. Did his monotheism influence the birth of Moses and Israeli monotheism?

I ”Did Akhantan’s monotheism impress Moses?“In the July/August 2015 issue Bible archeology reviewsEmirates Professor Brian Fagan of the University of California, Santa Barbara, Anthropology discussed this tantalizing question.

Egyptian King Achinton, which means “effective for Eaton”-was actually Amin Hatip IV, which was ruled by about 1352 to 1336 BC in the fifth year of his time, moving the royal residence to a new site in Central Egypt, and then a new site, “Lumin,” Laimon, “Laimon,”. In the day, ATENTON claimed to be the only person who had access to the authine, thus making a intercession priest unnecessary.

I Repetitive Donald B. Redford, who excavated Akinaton’s early temple in Karnak (in modern Thibs), Donald B. Redford describes how Akhantatin has established the worship of Antan, “Tawheed of Religious Pharaoh,”

The difference of the sun disk comes from “good God” (Akhantan) and a iconic “war” between all the other gods. The result of this “war” was the greatness of the former and the latter. Akhantan imposed a tax and gradually closed the temples of other gods. Pictures of his former residents were occasionally destroyed. The difference, rituals and myths were given an extraordinary form to remove unwanted indicators, literature was edited. The names were changed to eliminate hateful divine elements. And the city where the old gods were worshiped were abandoned by the court and the government.

Akhantan destroyed a lot, he created very little. No fiction was devised for his new God. No symbol was allowed in art or sect, and a simple task was reduced to offering itself on the altar. Harmony was no longer possible: Akhantan’s God does not accept and absorbs – he excludes and destroys.

Was the Israeli Exodus leader Bible Moses influenced a god of a god of Egypt on the Atal Puja of Egypt? Was Akhnatton’s monotheism the forerunner of Israeli monotheism? According to Repetitive Author Brian Fagan, we’re talking about two different types of wages:

Fagan writes, “The Israeli monotheism was created through the centuries through discussions with debate, belief announcements and other societies and other beliefs.” “On the contrary, Achinton’s monotheism, which presided over an isolated land, was greatly developed at the behest of the Single, the absolute king, where Pharaoh’s word was divine and secular law. It was an experience that woke up to the bull.”

When Tottekhattin – Achinteton’s second son; We know him as a famous king Tut – he arrived at the throne, working with his advisers to restore the worship of the traditional Egyptian Panthenon and his chief god Aman.
