Just rediscovered you after you you got detwittered. As a theologian, I’m not sure atheism excludes spirituality. Spirituality is sensitivity to the subtle aspects of existence. I think that came from David Bohm. That understanding served me well through my graduate studies without being challenged and it did appear to help others come terms with a lot of conflict among religions and even dialogue between religion and economics as well as science and religion, the latter being my area of research. Thanks for posting and allowing your voice to be heard again, even though I’m a bit late to the party.

We always seem to think that Christianity may be built upon other preexisting belief systems. What if the older societies were reasoning, stumbling, searching towards the truth of Christianity, which was clarified in its current form by the Son of God making a substantial and definitive visit.
It might be that God has made himself manifest on earth and spoke to prophets of pre biblical times on other occasions. Visits we know of in the Bible are the appearances to Abraham just before Sodom and Gomorrah, and also the mysterious and brief appearance of Melchizedek. Other references are made also, which are not noted to be angels but a man who eats with Gideon and another previously wrestles physically with Jacob.
The Unseen Realm (Heiser) is an interesting read that covers some of the previous "visitations" ideas.
Roger Sabbah was born on September 14, 1955 in Fez, Morocco. Like many Jews from that country, his grandparents were rabbis from father to son.
His grandfather was a rabbi in Agadir.
His great grandparents were rabbis in Tiberias and Alexandria.
His father was an accountant, violinist and conductor in Morocco.
At the age of two, his parents moved to France, to Arcueil (a southern suburb of Paris) where Roger Sabbah grew up and completed his schooling.
Passionate about criticism, avid reader of Krisnamurti, but also fond of Brassens, Brel, René Bouchard, Serge Réggiani ... Roger Sabbah studied biblical and classical studies at the Yabné high school in Paris.
In this school, he met Charles Mopsik (future eminent cabalist in the French Jewish community) and became his friend and fellow student.
Roger Sabbah then studied medicine for three years in Abidjan.
He returned to Paris in 1980 and worked in commerce, while being passionate about biblical and Talmudic studies.
He then discovered Egyptology and became fascinated by this field, which he linked to his biblical studies. At the same time, he studied the connection between Hebrew letters and hieroglyphs and discovered the sacred links between the Jewish Cabala and ancient Egypt.
In 1997, he gave up his commercial activity and devoted himself exclusively to his research and to the writing of his first book, The Secrets of the Exodus.
After the enormous success of this book, published in several countries and in several languages, Roger Sabbah became more interested in the Egyptian message contained in the Kabbalah.
After publishing The Secret of the Jews and The Secrets of the Bible, Roger Sabbah discovered the names of the Egyptian gods transcribed in the Kabbalah.
He studied the texts of the Book of the Dead and the texts of the Sarcophagi, and compared them with the Kabbalah.
He published The Jewish Pharaoh in April 2008 at Lattès.
From this date, he published the work The Secret of the 3rd Millennium, then in 2000 he tackled the greatest discovery of his research career. He met Louise Guersan, a writer and history teacher at the Lycée Janson de Saill, who was convinced of this incredible discovery and helped him to write the book requested by Jean-François Champollion in the evening of his life under the name of Sacred Criticism: "The ancient Egyptians were the Jews".
Thank you for your words. The two Christmas posts “broke the rules” of unrelenting Covid material, however it seemed fitting to pause and consider God for at least a day.
As a Christian, I would love to know that this faith was the perfect culmination of all that came before. This is a challenge when considering the historical Church…

This brings to mind something C. S. Lewis wrote:

‘Osiris is Israel’ is exceptional. ties it together.
