Proof of the 10 Plagues?
Everyone here seems to enjoy a good parallel to the Bible. What about this one?
The Ten Plagues There's even a close-up of the Egyptian Demotic text for the most hardened skeptics (who can read Demotic of course)! Ish |

oh come now, someone, Zar I think, posted this a few weeks ago, Egyptologists say these are common in Egypt, bad Pharoh bad stuff happens, good Pharoah bad stuff goes away, all common ancient 'Laments', check the archives may have been April or May.

Feel free to remove it if so, but seems like it's every bit as good a parallel as Homer is to Mark... Ish |

Are you arguing for a literary connection between the plagues of the Bible and these old Egyptian documents? Possibly true.
Here's the prior thread What is the scoop on the "Ipuwer Papyrus" re: the Plagues of Egypt? [This message has been edited by Toto (edited June 21, 2001).] |
