Egyptian Staff
Click to Enlarge
| This engraving reveals the staff of
inheritance in the left hand. If it were in the right hand it would
be a scepter. This Egyptian was from the time of Amunmai Thori II,
around two hundred years or so before Moses. Ancient Egyptian Tomb
Walls contain pictures of important men represented with a long
staff which marks his rank, head of a family and great landowner.
Fragments have been discovered revealing these rods with
hieroglyphic inscriptions. It is interesting that God anointed the
staff or rod of Moses to lead the people of Israel to the promised
land. |
