Talk:Joseph was Imhotep/Archive1
Pyramid[edit]
If the Great Pyramid is the monument that is both at the edge of and at the center of ..er.. I forget.. and is an embodyment of Biblical Knowledge and prophecy then doesnt it follow that Joseph was the architect ? Hamster (talk) 23:45, 29 January 2010 (UTC) woo woo :)
- Your completely missing the point that it was the aliens that built the pyramids at Giza! Joseph built Djoser's one at Saqqara... or something like that... maybe it was the Illuminati, and wasn't it satanic knowledge? :P --

- according to one site www.thepump.org, the Great pyramid is a giant water pump. Thats absolute PROOF of the biblical flood , and what the alien pyramid builders had to do to clean it up Hamster (talk)
- D'oh! Why didn't I figure that out before? So obvious... How else did life get back to normal so quickly? After bailing the world out (literally) the aliens told Cleopatra to build a big dam to store it all up in Lake Nasser ready for the end of days. Mystery solved -- 00:37, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

The Great Pyramid was intended as a dry-ski-slope - but 'Elf and Safety' decided there was too much sand, so it was turned into a tomb. 82.44.143.26 (talk) 16:40, 11 March 2011 (UTC)
You're all forgetting something important[edit]

Cover story material[edit]
It has a bronze level cover story tag however there is something not quite right about the title. It reminds me of a Schlafly "Mystery". Acei9 09:16, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not sure about "cover" as I'd have to say it's not a core topic, but the standard of the article is above bronze.

- It's on-mission enough to be cover. I was about to ask what keeps it from silver - David Gerard (talk) 15:46, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

Misinterpretation?[edit]
...are you certain this is the preponderant view? I'd always been taught that the god Imhotep was the vizier Imhotep deified, and I can't find anything to dispute this - if that's the case, it wouldn't make sense for Djoser to pray to him, or if he did, surely it'd be based on a reputation he'd developed during his lifetime. Sake Fueled (talk) 20:30, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
- Hrm. Shouldn't this article really state the likelihood that sketchy records of Imhotep, along with sketchy records of the Hyksos, are sources of inspiration for the story of Joseph? Obviously an hypothetical historical Joseph cannot be the same person as the historical Imhotep but when did that sort of thing stop the Isralite leaders-in-Exile from saying anything in substantiation of their territorial claims? More should be here about possibly explanations for the similarities between the two stories than simply about why Joseph cannot be Imhotep as I don't think this is a very widely held opinion. — Unsigned, by: 194.166.114.233 / talk 19:40, 21 June 2015
Joseph was Imhotep[edit]
12 siblings[edit]
I don't know who stated that there is no proof at all (outside of the bible) that joseph was one of the 12 tribes of israel. To my knowledge Hitler did not succeed to exterminate all the jews and as such we have living proof that joseph is one of the 12 tribes of israel. Yes boys and girls, the jews do exist. They are the proof that they do exist.
But thats as far as the author(s) of this article come with their investigative skills of "bible bashing". Next your going to say that israel doesn't exist outside of the bible.
In fact i shouldn't correct such blatant error because it is so revealing as to the level of this article and it's authors. It is so revealing as to the level of study they have applied to their claims.

- Yes there are Jews, that doesn't provide archaeological evidence corroborating the number of sibling attributed to a mythological (or if you prefer, historical) figure. In short, none of that has anything to do with anything. Also, just for future reference, YouTube isn't generally accepted as a scholarly source. — Unsigned, by: 184.76.69.33 / talk 00:20, 6 November 2013
What are you talking about?![edit]
What the hell! Joseph was not Imhotep. Joseph did not design the first step pyramid; I know that for a fact. — Unsigned, by: 192.168.132.4 / talk 03:08, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
