Walk Like a Mesopotamian Egyptian

See here where it says ancient Egyptians were from the Middle East. This is consistent with the Table of Nations in Genesis chapter ten where the near descendant of Noah, Mizraim, is associated with Egypt. It is contradictory to what they expected to find- that ancient Egyptians were more sub-Saharan African. This is yet another data point which aligns with the view of Genesis laid out in "Early Genesis: the Revealed Cosmology."

This Christ-centered view of the text does not see Adam as the progenitor of all of humanity but rather his role was as a shadow of Christ. The role of the Adamic line was not to people the earth but to produce the Messiah who would redeem the people of the earth. The flood of Noah then was not global in extent (though it seemed like it to Shem, Ham, and Japeth who first recorded the account) but it would have been global in effect if the line leading to Messiah had perished.  It would have left the world to go to ruin.

The nations described in Genesis ten are not completely peopled by the descendants of Noah, but they are divided by them. That is to say they were a natural nobility that acquired large personal households (much like the later Patriarchs) which became the cores of these nations.

While the "Young Earth" traditional Jewish view of the text is getting harder to defend by the day the Christ-centered view of the text is being confirmed day after day. Click below for the book....
