Anubis is one of my personal favorites among the Egyptian pantheon, him and Bastet. However, during some research for an entirely different project, I learned that Bastet's older iterations actually had some crossover with Anubis, some modern depictions of the two even like to frame the two as being romantically involved in someway; Bastet was later broken up into the goddesses of Bast (which the modern era uses as a shorthand for Bastet) and Sekhmet. But by far, the god I think should be covered as soon as possible would have to be the god Ptah. Ptah is an interesting deity; he had worshippers almost everywhere and was often treated as a minor deity but was still incredibly important. Ptah was the Egyptian god of creation, and one of his nicknames was the "Unmade Creator" because he literally willed everything, including himself, into existence. Still, since he technically exists outside the realm of his own creation, he is defined as being unmade as a descriptor. That's right, his will was so powerful he literally created his physical form and the rest of the cosmos, including the original gods and progenitors of humanity. He was still treated as the primary deity for artisans and always had shrines in almost every city, but he was still relegated to Minor deity status. The funny thing about Ptah is that he doesn't care what mortal or the divine think of him; a simple thought from him can literally alter the fabric of the universe, so he has to practice restraint and keep very tight control over his mind to keep from dramatically altering the laws of existence as they have been agreed upon by the gods for the sake of those under their guidance. Nevertheless, Ptah's creative mind is responsible for the foundations of everything in the universe, seeing as he literally created all the materials of the universe and the rules that govern them, including their defining characteristics.

Christians stole from him real hard. He spoke words into being. The whole bible quote about the word being with god and is god blah blah blah is taken directly from one of his prayers. Psalm 23, the lord is my shepherd is an iteration of the hymn to Osiris. Christians although they don’t like to admit it (especially you catholics) are worshiping the same gods I do but don’t know it. And before you start trolling me, learn the hieroglyphs it is LITERALLY written in our faces THOUSANDS of years prior to Jesus. And also, early Christians started off in Egypt so it’s not surprising it’s the same story plagiarized .

Horus's origins are so fascinating. He's been the son of Osiris, son of Ra, son of Geb, and even an interchangeable god with Ra at times.

Part of the reason he's got such disparate origins is he's one of the oldest figures in the mythology, so he's gone through some rebranding.

I love ❤️ LOVE ❤️ the fact that it shows the text written in hieroglyphs, in modern phonetic pronunciation of those hieroglyphs, and in English below those two lines. It’s absolutely amazing. I’ve gifted this book to a few people, but the amount of attention and dedication required to read and comprehend it is a bit too much for some people, which is why videos like these can be helpful and useful!

Well presented for a young audience. As you said most of these detailed written Egyptian myths about Osiris, Isis, Set and Horus were written by Plutarch. Plutarch was a post Christian/Peter/Paul philosopher, historian and priest of the Temple of Apollo. Most stories before Plutarch about Horus or Osiris are very vague or contradictory. I often hear these Zeitgeist fans that Holy Spirit, Mary, Jesus was copied from Horus....but in timeline of writing, the other way around is the only possible "coincidence" Plutarch was trying to breathe new life into old Greek pagan temples like his own. The Romans had become more and more secular due to absorbing more and more foreign cultures. He wrote most of his Egyptian god histories to sound very much like Greek/Roman pantheon. Horus was to sound very similar to Apollo.
