1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,379 Hey everybody, I haven't done a narrated video upload for many months. I've lately 2 00:00:05,379 --> 00:00:11,339 done some reading on Egypt, watching some good videos, and I came across a good website 3 00:00:11,339 --> 00:00:16,760 here, good story, and I thought I'd share it with you. This has to do with the Great 4 00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:20,760 Pyramid and the human body, but first of all I'd like to talk about what they call the 5 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:26,019 Canon of Proportions. Whenever the ancient Egyptian artists sculptured, inscribed, or 6 00:00:26,019 --> 00:00:31,140 painted figures, their proportions would be determined by a Canon of Proportions. Up... 7 00:00:31,140 --> 00:00:37,259 the end of the New Kingdom's 26th Dynasty, the ancient Egyptians used a grid that... 8 00:00:37,259 --> 00:00:43,060 units to the hairline or 19 units to the top of the head. The height of the figure was... 9 00:00:43,060 --> 00:00:47,539 measured to the hairline rather than the top of the head, because the top of the head w... 10 00:00:47,539 --> 00:00:53,299 being concealed by a crown or a headpiece, making it difficult to base a Canon of... 11 00:00:53,299 --> 00:01:08,539 And very simply, when you overlay the grid on the figures, it was 19 squares high or 18 ... 12 00:01:08,539 --> 00:01:16,299 hairline, and always the navel was at the top of the 11th grid or the 11th square of the... 13 00:01:16,299 --> 00:01:23,979 So what significance does that have? A lot of us are familiar with this view of the Great 14 00:01:23,979 --> 00:01:31,140 Pyramid's internal chambers and passageways, and this is looking from east to west. A l... 15 00:01:31,140 --> 00:01:36,060 have seen this and are familiar with it. Well, let's look at it from south to north... 16 00:01:36,060 --> 00:01:43,900 internal passageways and chambers, and this is what it would look like. Now that 11 to... 17 00:01:43,900 --> 00:01:49,620 that they use for the human body also works in the Great Pyramid. From the bottom of t... 18 00:01:49,620 --> 00:01:54,260 chamber to the top of the Campbell's chamber, which is the chamber right above the King's 19 00:01:54,260 --> 00:02:02,700 chamber, the tallest in the Great Pyramid, it's 180 cubits. The top of the Queen's... 20 00:02:02,700 --> 00:02:10,620 in at exactly 110 cubits, so that 11 to 18 ratio was working there too. And also from... 21 00:02:10,620 --> 00:02:16,539 the King's chamber down to the subterranean chamber, if you put a grid of 18 squares, the 22 00:02:16,539 --> 00:02:23,379 entrance to the Great Pyramid would come in right at the top of the 11th square. So on... 23 00:02:23,379 --> 00:02:30,379 have that 11 to 18 ratio working there. Here we have a depiction of a figure from the... 24 00:02:30,379 --> 00:02:38,540 This is Hesseyer. He was a physician, and this is how he was depicted. And using tha... 25 00:02:38,539 --> 00:02:46,539 you can see right at the top of the 18th grid here matches up with the hairline, and the... 26 00:02:46,539 --> 00:02:56,180 coming in right at the navel right here. Well, if you take that south to north view... 27 00:02:56,180 --> 00:03:02,659 Pyramid's internal passages and chambers and overlay it on this figure, it looks like... 28 00:03:02,659 --> 00:03:11,859 And you can see here right at the hairline matches up at the top of the 18th grid with 29 00:03:11,859 --> 00:03:20,979 the top of the King's chamber, and the 11th grid that matches up with the navel just... 30 00:03:20,979 --> 00:03:28,840 match up with the pyramid's entrance exactly. So there you have an overlay that gives you a 31 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:36,159 real good correlation between the Great Pyramid and the human body. Now I'm going ... 32 00:03:36,159 --> 00:03:43,520 the tet or the Jed pillar. It is the oldest symbol of the resurrected God and was of... 33 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:49,120 religious significance to the ancient Egyptians. It is a symbol of his backbone ... 34 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:54,080 general. The Jed is represented on two ivory pieces found at Hellwann dating to the First 35 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:59,880 Dynasty, evidence that the use of the symbol is at least that old. In these early times... 36 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:05,920 that Osiris was probably represented by the Jed alone, and that he had no other form.... 37 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:11,120 describes the Jed as a column imitating a bundle of stocks tied together and ascribe... 38 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:18,040 to be stable and enduring. Other possible interpretations are that it represents a... 39 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:23,759 of the backbone of Osiris, a tree trunk with its branches lopped or the four supports o... 40 00:04:23,759 --> 00:04:30,240 combined in one pillar. The legend of Osiris told to us by Plutarch describes the death... 41 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:35,599 resurrection of the Osiris. His body becomes concealed in the trunk of a magnificent sized 42 00:04:35,599 --> 00:04:42,199 tree. The king then chops down this tree and the part containing the body of Osiris is... 43 00:04:42,199 --> 00:04:49,599 a pillar for his house. The basic themes of the legend are preceded in the pyramid tex... 44 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:55,520 utterances as number 554 in which the body of Osiris becomes enclosed in the trunk of a... 45 00:04:55,520 --> 00:05:06,000 and is associated with the Jed pillar. Now the internal chamber system and connecting... 46 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:11,400 of the Great Pyramid viewed from the south or the north bear a striking resemblance of a... 47 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:17,879 facing the setting sun, his legs buried underground like the roots of a tree. The... 48 00:05:17,879 --> 00:05:23,600 four granite layers situated above the ceiling of the king's chamber are also... 49 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:33,639 four blades that form the top section of the Jed pillar, the crown of Osiris, and that ... 50 00:05:33,639 --> 00:05:45,439 This is called Osiris Jed. That's what this symbol is called. The image contains the s... 51 00:05:45,439 --> 00:05:51,000 of the legend of Osiris, the body of Osiris inside the pillar in the house of the king. 52 00:05:51,000 --> 00:06:08,360 And here we have an overlay of this man facing the setting sun and you could say t... 53 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:16,120 crown or whatever there is striking resemblance. So I thought that was pretty... 54 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:23,520 pretty interesting, and maybe there is a correlation to the Great Pyramid and this 55 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:33,280 top Campbell chamber I think it's called and the Jed pillar that is right here on the l... 56 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:40,479 blue. The dual function of the pyramid to personify the body of the dead king as Osi... 57 00:06:40,479 --> 00:06:45,519 time represent the solar mountain or pillar is apparent in the structural design of th... 58 00:06:45,519 --> 00:06:50,839 Pyramid. The diagram of the complete internal layout of the chambers and passageways is... 59 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:56,759 from the south, depicts what appears to be a colossal figure of Osiris combined with the 60 00:06:56,759 --> 00:07:02,959 Jed pillar standing inside of the pyramid. This is a place where the king will again ... 61 00:07:02,959 --> 00:07:08,759 and reborn as expressed in another claim made by the ancient Egyptian kings found in the... 62 00:07:08,759 --> 00:07:14,239 chapter of the Book of the Dead. I am he of the Jed pillar, the son of he of the Jed... 63 00:07:14,239 --> 00:07:23,679 I was conceived in Jedu, I was born in the Jedu. The enclosing of the body of Osiris ... 64 00:07:23,679 --> 00:07:29,120 inside the house of the king and his subsequent regeneration is described in th... 65 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:34,959 and supported by various parts of the pyramid text. The body of the king, the body of... 66 00:07:34,959 --> 00:07:40,319 and the pyramid of the king were considered by the ancient Egyptians as being synonymo... 67 00:07:40,319 --> 00:07:48,399 another as we saw in the above utterance from the Book of the Dead. It follows that if t... 68 00:07:48,399 --> 00:07:55,639 Osiris and his pyramid is Osiris, then by constructing the chambers of his pyramid i... 69 00:07:55,639 --> 00:08:06,919 form an image of the resurrected Osiris, they ensured his own resurrection. Now the King's 70 00:08:06,919 --> 00:08:15,120 chamber or the house of the Kofir. Now in ancient Egypt, Neb-Sokar meant Lord of the... 71 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:20,639 title of Osiris and the name of the figure placed in the tomb. A slight variation of... 72 00:08:20,639 --> 00:08:27,360 Neb-Sokart, which means house of the Kofir. The house, determinative hieroglyph in thi... 73 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:32,840 replaces that of God. The house of the Kofir later became the place in which the Jed... 74 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:39,279 was worshipped. According to tradition, Neb-Sokart was located in the portion of t... 75 00:08:39,279 --> 00:08:46,200 jaws of Osiris were preserved. Once the depiction of Osiris Jed is realized in the... 76 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:50,900 internal chamber system, it can be observed that the figure's jaws are located in the... 77 00:08:50,900 --> 00:08:58,800 half of the King's chamber, the very position of the granite Kofir in the King's chamber... 78 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:12,080 we have an overlay of the King's chamber and the Kofir on the overlay is located right ... 79 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:22,280 jaw or mouth. So, that is very cool. So, just to recap, we have this 18 block grid syste... 80 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:28,320 the ancient Egyptians used to measure the human form and when you overlay the intern... 81 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:34,520 and chamber system, it matches up with the hairline to the top of the King's chamber,... 82 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:42,040 entrance to the navel, and the navel of Osiris is a significant thing in ancient... 83 00:09:42,039 --> 00:09:49,559 crown or at the top of the head in the Campbell chamber, you have these four... 84 00:09:49,559 --> 00:10:01,719 which look just like this ancient Jed pillar, really the first symbol of Osiris, and it... 85 00:10:01,719 --> 00:10:07,519 physically entombed in the pyramid, the dead king became identified with Osiris, the... 86 00:10:07,519 --> 00:10:14,679 father of Horus. The pyramid complex was, in one sense, a temple complex to the... 87 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:20,879 divinity, merged with the sun god and the central icon of the pyramid. The embodimen... 88 00:10:20,879 --> 00:10:27,679 shadow and the union of heaven and earth encapsulating the mystery of death and... 89 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:33,439 above all an icon, a towering symbol. It has been said that the Egyptians did not... 90 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:39,880 hieroglyphic writing, two-dimensional art, and relief carving, sculpture, and monumental 91 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:51,320 architecture. In a sense, the pyramids are gigantic hieroglyphs, and here you just ha... 92 00:10:51,320 --> 00:11:01,160 of the pyramid looking from south to north and what it looks like. So I just thought... 93 00:11:01,159 --> 00:11:07,079 very interesting. This is pyramidofman.com. I'll leave the link below. There's the man... 94 00:11:07,079 --> 00:11:12,519 put out there about the pyramid. I thought I'd throw this out there. I found it... 95 00:11:12,519 --> 00:11:15,279 Hope you did too. Have a nice week.
