Heru: Jesus is a Copycat
"The Christian myths were first related of Horus or Osiris, who was the embodiment of divine goodness, wisdom, truth and purity...This was the greatest hero that ever lived in the mind of man -- not in the flesh -- the only hero to whom the miracles were natural because he was not human." 1

"...I am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for there is no saviour beside me." Hosea 13:4, King James Version. This passage may have an additional and completely different meaning from that usually assigned.
About Yeshua of Nazareth:
He is commonly referred to as Jesus Christ, although Joshua would be a more accurate translation of his first name. "Christ" is not his last name; it is simply the Greek word for "Messiah," or "anointed one." Theologians have discovered about 50 gospels which were widely used by Jewish, Pauline and Gnostic groups within the early Christian movement. Only four of these were chosen by the surviving group, Pauline Christianity, and were included in the Bible. Those four Gospels describe Jesus as a Jew who was born to a virgin in Palestine circa 4 to 7 BCE. He is portrayed as a rabbi, teacher, healer, exorcist, magician, prophet, and religious leader who had a one year (according to Mark, Matthew and Luke) or a three year (according to John) ministry in Palestine, starting when he was about 30 years old. Most Christians believe that he was executed by the Roman occupying army, visited the underworld, was resurrected, spent 40 days with his disciples, and then ascended to heaven. Most Christian denominations view Jesus as God, and as the Son of God, the second person in the Trinity.|
Conservative Christians view the Gospels as being inerrant whose authors were inspired by God. The Gospels and other passages in the Bible are mostly interpreted literally. Muslims revere Jesus as a great prophet -- next only to Muhammad in importance. They regard the assertion that Jesus is God to be blasphemy.
About Horus:
Various ancient Egyptian statues and writings tell of Horus, (pronounced "hohr'-uhs;" a.k.a. Harseisis, Heru-sa-Aset (Horus, son of Isis), Heru-ur (Horus the elder), Hr, and Hrw), a creator sky God. He was worshipped thousands of years before the first century CE -- the time when Jesus was ministering in Palestine. 2 Horus was often represented as a stylized eye symbol, symbolizing the eye of a falcon. He was also presented "in the shape of a sparrow hawk or as a man [or lion] with a hawk's head." 3 He is often shown as an infant cradled by his mother Isis. He was considered to be the son of two major Egyptian deities: the God Osirus and and the Goddess Isis. In adulthood, he avenged his father's murder, and became recognized as the God of civil order and justice. Each of the Egyptian pharaohs were believed to be the living embodiment -- an incarnation -- of Horus. 4
"A list of the names of all the gods of Egypt would fill pages. But all these gods were only forms, attribu
tes or phases of Ra, the solar god, who himself was the supreme symbol or metaphor for God....Horus, the son of Osirus and Isis, is himself an aspect of Ra." 6
Life events shared by Horus and Jesus
Stories from the life of Horus had been circulating for centuries before Jesus birth (circa 4 to 7 BCE). If any copying occurred by the writers of the Egyptian or Christian religions, it was the followers of Jesus who incorporated into his biography the myths and legends of Horus, not vice-versa.
According to author and theologian Tom Harpur: "[Author Gerald] Massey discovered nearly two hundred instances of immediate correspondence between the mythical Egyptian material and the allegedly historical Christian writings about Jesus. Horus indeed was the archetypal Pagan Christ." 7

A Chronology of the Bible
Challenge to the Standard Version
by Yosef ben-Jochannan (1973)
Dedicated to Truth
yet always mindful that
All faith is FALSE, all faith is TRUE
TRUTH is the shattered mirrors strewn
In myriad bits; while each BELIEVES
his LITTLE BIT the whole to own
(From: "The Kasidah of Haji Abu el-Yezdi"; as translated by Sir Richard F. Burton)
On the morning of Wednesday, July 11, 1973 in Chock Full O' Nuts Restaurant,
Lenox Avenue and 135th Street, Harlem, New York City, New York, it was my
very good fortune to be sitting for another fruitful session of COMMON
ECUMENICAL talk among the following Black Clergymen: Reverend George H.
Polk of the Memorial Baptist Church, Reverend William F. Hawkins of the
Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church, Reverend Hawkins J. Plummer
of the Salvation Baptist Church, and Reverend James Gunther of Transfiguration
Lutheran Church—who joined us later on. Along with us were a few of our many
lay friends. In the course of the conversation of the morning, which centered
around a two volume manuscript I am completing for publication later on this year
titled—The Black Man's Religion [Volume II and III], Reverend Polk suggested
that: "It would be of extreme importance that the average parishioner have some kind
of understanding of the chronological development and order in which the King
James Authorized Version of the Old and New Testament came about. ...," etc.
Reverend Hawkins and Reverend Plummer immediately supported the idea. It
was then agreed that pages 82 through 86 of the entire chronology of my
manuscript—"THE NEED FOR A BLACK BIBLE," Volume III [of the above work]
would be extracted as it were, then made into a lay peoples' pamphlet of no more
than ten [10] pages. And, that it would include a few single paragraph comments
on the subject of the ORIGIN and DEVELOPMENT of the OLD and NEW
TESTAMENT by a few members of the Black Clergy. The following is the result of
that glorious communion we were all privileged to have had that heavenly
morning.
As we look back into the history of the Holy Bible, or "HOLY SCRIPTURE AS
WRITTEN BY GOD INSPIRED SCRIBES," we seem to forget that all of the
BIBLES we use were the works of various writers, both men and women; but
mostly men. And that all of the WORKS or BOOKS were compiled into what is
today our various VERSIONS of "HOLY BIBLES" or "HOLY SCROLLS." We have
also failed to realize that the BIBLES we use today are the result of a period of
hundreds of REVISIONS and TRANSLATIONS that cover approximately two
thousand four-hundred and ninety-five [2,495] years—from ca. 700 B.C. [BCE] to
1973 A.D. [CE]. Yet all in this period was preceded by much more earlier
fundamentals created and developed by indigenous African People. These later
on became the basic teachings of Judaism, and then Christianity. For even
Moses, the father of the OLD TESTAMENT, was an African who used much of
the ancient teachings of his fellow Africans of the Nile River [BLUE and WHITE]
and Great Lakes regions Mysteries System of Northeast and Central-East Africa
he allegedly passed down to other African Jews that converted them into what
later became the PENTATEUCH or OLD TESTAMENT [Five Books Of Moses or
Holy Torah].
The very first "BIBLE" or "SCROLL" on record produced by man, with regards to
paying honour and divine respect to a "CREATOR OF ALL MANKIND," was that
of the African People of the Nile Valley and Great Lakes regions of Central, East
and Northeast Africa. They were no different than the Africans we see today in
the Harlems and Timbuctoos of the entire world we erroneously call: "NEGROES,
COLORED FOLKS" and "BLACK PEOPLE" today. It was called by its African
creators and developers...
"THE BOOK OF THE COMING FORTH BY DAY AND BY
NIGHT." It was translated from its original Hieroglyphic Text into the English
language by many Europeans since the latter part of the 19th Century A.D. The
easiest one to read is called...
"THE [Egyptian] "BOOK OF THE DEAD.",
This translation was done by Sir Ernest A. Wallis Budge, and published in
London, England during the year 1895 A.D.
Since the ORIGINAL BIBLE was produced by the Africans approximately 3,400
years before the OLD TESTAMENT, and more than 4,200 years before the NEW
TESTAMENT, countless VERSIONS of it have been written and published. From
this base all of the biblical references in this pamphlet is rendered. You will notice
that they follow in sequential order...the two [2] ORIGINALS and all of the
VERSIONS of the old and New Testament. For further details beyond this
pamphlet you should read Volume III or The Black Man's Religion.
Although it is the "KING JAMES [Authorized] VERSION OF THE OLD AND NEW
TESTAMENT" that most Protestant Christians use as "THE ONE, AND ONLY,
TRUE BIBLE," you MUST be reminded that it is one of the very late of the many
VERSIONS of the BIBLE; and that many of the other VERSIONS since its
publication in 1611 A.D. You will also notice that there were many English
VERSIONS before the "KING JAMES [Authorized] VERSION OF THE OLD AND
NEW TESTAMENT." Its popularity was due to the fact that the rulers of Great
Britain's military power was able to force practically everyone in their hundreds of
colonies throughout the entire world to adopt the "OFFICIAL BIBLE OF THE
CHURCH OF ENGLAND" as
"THE ONE, AND ONLY, TRUE BIBLE."
It will prove most beneficial for BIBLE STUDY CLASSES to make comparisons
between the various VERSION. This method of STUDY will not only enrich your
retention of the teachings in the BIBLE; but it will also give you a better
understanding of the role the African People commanded in the founding of
JUDAISM and CHRISTIANITY. You will equally understand that most BLACKS
do not know that the NEW and OLD TESTAMENT historically, geographically,
socio-politically, racially, etc. are PART AND PARCEL OF THEIR OWN
HERITAGE. Some of the MAJOR VERSIONS, and the two [2] ORIGINAL
BIBLES, follow in chronological order bellow along with highlights of the historical
events that caused and/or influenced them. I have shown tha map below as an
aid to the LAND OF THE BIBLE [Africa and Asia; followed very much later by
Europe].

Most Jewish, Christian, and Moslem parishioners do not know very much about
the basic book they use as their only religious and divine guide. The reason for
this is based in the fact that very few of them, not unlike yourself, know the

Ramesis II that reigned over Egypt from ca. 1298 to 1232 B.C. [or B.C.E.].
9. QUESTION: What is the name of the ORIGINAL [first] CHRISTIAN BIBLE; and in what
language was it written?

ANSWER: VERSIONS; usage of words; meaning of words; period of time; difference in
belief about "the teachings of Jesus Christ," etc.
17. QUESTION: Were all of the men who wrote all of the VERSIONS equally "INSPIRED"?
ANSWER: It must be assumed that all of the writers were "INSPIRED BY GOD" if any of
the VERSIONS from which the King James' is taken is correct. IF any of the base
VERSIONS is faulty, so must those taken from it follow in the same way.
18. QUESTION: Would you accept another English VERSION; and why?
ANSWER: YES. Because the English grammar and style would be easier to read and
understand than the archaic Ole English in which the King James Version is written.
19. QUESTION: Who is the MAIN CHARACTER in all of the HOLY BOOKS of the world?
ANSWER: GOD. Whether HE, SHE, or IT; all of the religions of the world recognize a
DIVINE entity that is translated into the English language meaning "GOD."
20. QUESTION: Which was the ORIGINAL FORM of the Bible: BOOK or SCROLL?
ANSWER: SCROLL. The first was made from the PAPYRUS PLANT of the Nile Valley.
The advent of the "Cultural Revolution" that swept the Black Communities of the
entire world also swept the RELIGIOUS conscience of the Black Clergy. As
leaders of the largest segment of the Black Communities the Black Clergy
generally suffer equally as much as their followers; thus it must equally deal with
the proper information needed for an informed Black Community, particularly in
the area of the religious life. The first step must be with the human life-style the
history of religion teaches. In order to accomplish this end the need to
understand the main DOCUMENT of said teaching, its origin, its development,
and its meaning, becomes the responsibility of the Black Theologians, Black
Clergy, and the Black Teachers. In this respect the following members of the
Black Clergy comment on "The Chronology of the Bible."
COMMENT BY REV. GEORGE P. POLK:
This Bible Chronology is a must for any serious student of God's Sacred Truth.
Every Black Christian ought to know from whence his religion came. Dr. ben-
Jochannan has accomplished this task admirably.
COMMENT BY REV. WILLIAM F. HAWKINS:
When God summons a man for a specific task, the man is God-equipped for it.
An accurate chronology of the Bible, written in easy reading style as set forth by
Dr. ben-Jochannan, makes it easy for the Black Clergy and Black Teachers alike
to better understand the Bible as a whole. I am proud to have the honor of
commenting on the works of such a scholar.
COMMENT BY REV. JAMES E. GUNTHER:
This monogram presents a challenging springboard for deeper exploration and
investigation to member-seminaries of the American Association of Theological
Schools. It's implications for Church History and Biblical Studies stagger my
imagination. To think of Moses as an African, to think of Egypt as a part of Africa
opens the gate of Truth and the opportunity to demythologize Western, North
American, Theological symbol systems. I commend it to our laymen and religious
educational institutions and Board of publication.
COMMENT BY RABBI HAILU PARIS:
Certainly the beginning of Judaeo-Christian-Islamic theology had its origin in the
teachings of the indigenous African and Asian peoples of the Nile River, Tigris
River, and the Euphrates River valleys. This is just a sample of the background of
the origin of the source of the TRUTHS all of us preach—the OLD and NEW
TESTAMENT or QUR'AN.
COMMENT BY REV. SIS. BESSIE I. ROBBINSON:
I had always wondered what was the TRUE ORIGIN of the first Bible; the place
where it was written; the people who wrote it; and the name of ORIGINAL. The
Lord certainly acts in His mysterious way; would I have expected the answer
from other than a member of the Clergy? No! TRUTH has no boundaries. Dr.
ben-Jochannan was called to deliver the WORK and its SOURCE OF ORIGIN. I
will have to read the rest of his works.
