Book Description

Egyptian Testament November 25, 2008
The Bible says that a river flowed through the Garden of Eden and then split into four branches. There is only one river in the Near East that does exactly this, and that is the long oasis-garden of the Nile valley and its division into the (originally) four branches of the Nile Delta. This observation takes Ralph into the depths of the Genesis account, and it would seem that Adam and Eve were actually Akhenaton and Nefertiti; and so the Genesis story is actually a distillation of Akhenaton's Hymn to the Aten. Thus the Garden of Eden was originally the Garden of Aten (Akhenaton's god), and it resided at Amarna in Middle Egypt. The book also demonstrates that Hebrew is a direct descendant of the ancient Egyptian language, and that the Bible was written in Egyptian. This allows us to see that much of the Old Testament was based upon very ancient Egyptian law, stories and morality-tales.

More About the Author

Ralph Ellis has been researching biblical and Egyptian history for more than 30 years. Being independent from theological and educational establishments allows Ralph to tread where others do not dare, and it is through this independence that Ralph has discovered so many new biblical and historical truths.

Perhaps one of the biggest 'cover-ups' is the fact that the Israelites were originally Egyptians, the Hyksos Shepherd pharaohs who were ejected from Egypt in the 17th century BC. But this simple correlation colours the rest of biblical history, for it means that both King Solomon and King Jesus were also of Egyptian heritage.

4.0 out of 5 stars Egyptian Adam?, August 4, 2009
This review is from: Eden in Egypt: Adam and Eve Were Pharaoh Akhenaton and Nefertiti (Egyptian Testament) (Paperback)
One overriding theme permeates Eden in Egypt, which is that Ralph Ellis is a consummate advocate of his own work. Throughout the book he constantly referred to his other writings. Even with his unabashed self-advertising, I gave this book a high rating for curiosity factor; in his many rants Ellis raises a plethora interesting questions with respect to Biblical translation, history and artifact interpretation.

The read itself is a different matter. Ellis jumps topics with great frequency, makes incredible leaps and, as noted above, he relies heavily on his previous works (whereas the reader is expected to be fully familiar with the concepts forwarded). Make no mistake; Ellis clearly knows the history of Egyptian kings, Greek mythology, Mediterranean geography, and ancient Egyptian and Hebrew philology. He rounds out his skill set with a sound knowledge of the Koran and Biblical tradition.

Eden in Egypt offers much to consider and poses provoking questions related to the Book of Genesis and the revolutionary Egyptian King, Akhenaten. To be sure, this book could take a hum-drum Bible Study or adult Sunday School class and really give participants something to talk about.

4.0 out of 5 stars Adam and Eve, March 12, 2006
By 
This review is from: Eden in Egypt (Paperback)

One of the primary suggestions the author makes, is that Adam and Eve were actually Pharaoh Akhenaton and Queen Nefertiti. There is not enough evidence to prove this, but the argument is certainly compelling.

I liked the item on the Egyptian roots of Masonry too, most entertaining and thought-provoking. Plus there is an Egyptian-Hebrew dictionary, which is interesting as I had not thought there to be any similarities here. Evidently, there are!

In summary - thought-provoking.

4.0 out of 5 stars very different, original, March 22, 2005
This review is from: Eden in Egypt (Paperback)
This is the only book I have encountered that talked about the scriptures are based on the ancient egyptian langauge.
Most scholars today are trying to decipher the bible in its hebrew roots.
Ellis takes the bible a step further by saying the bible should be interepreted by the egptian language.
I think the book makes people think and has some "ah hah" sentences where the reader would be able to make new connections regarding the bible.
The book is very detail and is not something to read overnight with a wealth of new information to assimilate. Though the proofs go only so far like many new age books.
Defintiely, anyone not satisfied with current modern day bible itnerpretations this book is a must read.
