Thoth the Hermes of Egypt, The Atlantean God who Became the Biblical Enoch

When the Greeks came to #Egypt after the conquests of Alexander the Great (late 4th century BC onwards) they absorbed many important Egyptian deities into their pantheon. The god Thoth was one of them. The Greeks assumed that Thoth and the god Hermes must be the same person. In Stoic philosophy, Hermes is both “logos“ and “demiurge“, which probably owed something to the Hermopolitans. In Alexandrian Egypt, the Greek Hermes (identified with Thoth), became cosmopolitan and Hellenistic, but Egyptianized and known throughout the Roman world as “the Egyptian“.Where else than in Ancient Egypt, “to the great priests of Heliopolis.” This was none other than the Egyptian god of wisdom and culture “Thoth”, named in the Greek Hermes, alias #Hermes Trismegistos. His other names are Thauti, Surid or Saurid, Idris, Onuris and the biblical #Enoch or Enoch. Join this channel to get access to perks:
