Well, the bible can't be written without God.
Even when the smartest scholars with highest IQ, tens of thousands of them or hundreds of millions of them, gather and try to write like that, they can't.
It's so scientific and logical that there's no room for a thin razor.
Every word explains the whole sentence. The sentence explains the whole chapter. The chapter explains the bible as one.
What's more, the origin and changing process of each letter in a word tells the bible.
That's why the word of God is so mysterious and marvelous.
God gave us letters to explain His will and mind.
Yes, humans made them. It's true.
Humans created them out of necessity, but God used the letters as a tool for delivering His Word and commandments to us.
In that sense, we say that God has given us the letters.
In around 3000 BC, letters were first used in Egypt.
At that time, in the Third Dynasty of Egypt, the Egyptian letters already had perfect forms.
Usually the common Egyptian people didn't use them. Most people didn't know the letters at that time.
Of course, there were some kinds of letters before that and there were Sumerian letters or Arcadian in the same period.
But it was a cuneiform character, more like signs or marks than letters.
Have you seen letters like cheque signs? That's cuneiform characters. It disappeared soon.
Only hieroglyphics remained and led to alphabet letters.
Including Hebrew letters of the bible, modern letters developed from the Egyptian pictographs.
God gave Adam and Eve the sound to reveal Himself, right?
But sound can't be stored. How can the sound be stored?
You can draw the sound! That's the letter.
God had to give His people letters to deliver His word, His heart, and His Will.
To give them His promise and His truth, He had to store it with letters.
In those days, there was only one country that had the letters. It was Egypt!
So now you can understand why God drove His people into Egypt, right?
He was going to give them His word.
That's why Abraham went to Egypt many times.
Egypt is the model of this world which has the words below, not the words or water above.
So the people of God often go into Egypt and come out of it since Abraham.
God turns over the worldly letters and word and makes them into the truth, sticking it only in His people.
To explain how it happens, God's people go into Egypt.
In those days, only royal families and priests could learn the letters and use them.
They didn't write a letter with their characters. They used them in the temple and altar.
They inscribed letters on the stone offered to their gods.
Other people couldn't read or write such letters as hieroglyphics.
If God should give His people His word, He has to send somebody as a royal family, right?
So Moses goes there!
That's where the letters are and he gets the letters!
By the way, what does the name "Moses" mean? Its meaning is "Delivered from the water"
Another meaning is "Given by Water"
The name "Moses" wasn't named by his mom.
An Egyptian princess was bathing in the river.
You might have seen many Egyptian monuments.
Public baths were so nice in Egypt at that time.
Then why did she bathe in the river? Because it was cool there? No.
There was a princess who didn't have any child.
She was giving a ceremonial service to gods, wishing for a baby.
It's written in the history books of Egypt.
While she was cleaning herself in the ceremony in the river, a baby inside a basket was floating down the river!
Her prayer was answered!
So she grabbed it. And she named the baby "Moses" Why?
In the 18th Dynasty of Egypt, the names of the princes were Moses.
Once they become a king, they add the name of gods before Moses, such as TutuMoses.
When Moses returned to Egypt later, who was his opponent?
Another Moses of Egypt!
Moses was from the upper water, another Moses was from the down water.
In other words, Moses had words from above. The other Moses had words from below. The word "Pharaoh" means "the son of the sun god - Ra"
Pharaoh represents "downwater" "idols" "fake words" "untruth".
When God sent Moses to Egypt, He said, "I give you My words and now you have them!"
So two Moses meet. And Moses sent by God wins!
This is the whole historical story.
This is how Moses enters the Egyptian royal palace and how he learned all arts and studies as a prince.
For what? To receive the letters. So he wrote the bible.
That's the way it should be!
