There is a deep enigma about the beloved Jewish Festivals: who began them?
Despite their great antiquity and obvious holiness, the real origins of the famous holidays of Passover, Shavuot, Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and Sukkot remain, to this day, frustratingly elusive and cloaked in mystery. Orthodox tradition insists that Moses created them millennia ago, but who was Moses? Modern academia insists that Moses was a literary invention created to be the hero Israel never had. But what if Moses was real?
Author Jonathon Perrin explores the secret Egyptian origins of the Jewish Holy Days. Meet the revolutionary Heretic Pharaoh who planted the seeds of these Festivals, and learn how he used memory and ritual to ensure they would never be forgotten. Arcane Egyptian magic and rituals underlie Passover, and the real historicity behind the Exodus tradition is revealed. Gaze upon beautiful and intricate carvings of the original “first fruits” and “twin loaves” of Shavuot, carved on limestone blocks from Akhenaten’s city. Explore the true origins of famous Jewish symbols associated with each holiday, such as the shofar horn of Rosh Hashanah, the Kittel of Yom Kippur, and the lulav of Sukkot. See the king and his family celebrate history’s first sukkah. Learn how the entire sequence of the Jewish Fall Festivals, the holiest time of the year, was actually a secret memory of Akhenaten’s Coronation and Jubilee rituals, cryptically preserved for over 3000 years.
From sweet wine to sweet cakes, Seders to scrolls, trumpets to tablets, magic to memorials, plagues to Pyramid Texts, first fruits to firstborn, justice to Jubilee, challah to honey, and food to family, it is time to dissolve the mists of mystery and reveal a secret three millennia old. It is time to sing, dance, blast the shofar and shout for joy, for the rebel king who sparked it all has finally arrived: Moses, The Pharaoh Behind the Festivals.
