Egypt: A Mighty Hand and an Outstretched Arm

I continue to be fascinated by Egypt, even after the MANY trips that I have made there. I always find something new and different. My research has only fueled that discovery. Since my first visit to Egypt I have completely changed my perspective of the Old Testament, especially the first five books. The influence of Egypt can be seen in so many verses it would take more MANY more books to fill them. This book is a compilation of my lecture notes on the tours I lead every year. If this is in your hands and you have never toured Egypt with me … put it on your bucket list; I promise you will NOT look at the Bible in the same way again. Lectures on: - The Exodus: fact or fiction or something else? - Worship and the Temple: contrasting Egyptian worship to Hebrew worship - Joseph and the Egyptian Dream Culture - Mummies and Afterlife - Creation and Chaos: contrasting Egyptian creation myths with Genesis - Israel in Egypt: Archaeological evidence for Israel in Egypt - Biblical Phrases and Egyptian Connections: Idioms we know from scripture are actually from Egypt - Interesting and Surprising - PLUS: Nine Appendices and Bibliography with book reviews and comments
