Sunday Adult School

Today I taught the first of several classes on Ancient Egypt and the Old Testament upto the the Exodus before church service today. I started the class with the general introduction given in most Ancient Egyptian classes. I started with how we know about Ancient Egypt which is the Hieroglyphs. And also how the Hieroglyphs came to be deciphered.

Which involves Napoleon, War with the Mameluks and finally A British invasion and them taking the Rosetta stone off the French.

The only bad thing is my hour long lecture came in at 45 minutes. Oops.

While this week was heavy on the Ancient Egypt side of things, next week is heavy on the Abraham story.
