All the civilization of the world has come up through Egypt, from far well-springs of the ancient sources of the Nile in Africa, and beyond, lost in the dim distance of prehistoric ages.
The "Osirian" Age is the only prehistoric period with which students can become even remotely familiar. Osiris, Messianic Arch Angel (representing the sun of Life and Light); Isis, his spouse (representing generic life, the Earth); Horus (the child), representing the life, the birth.
The tutelar divinities were the lesser Angels, embodied for the various offices and ministrations indicated in these teachings: as leaders, teachers, exemplars, to bear forward the "lines of Light," to show the way. But these later names and symbols of Egyptian Angels and Arch Angels would have no meaning but for the fundamental bases of the Dispensations beyond it all, at the foundation of all the names and symbols, concealing ever the "Most Sacred Name," since neither the Magians, priests. Angels, or Arch Angels could utter the "Perfect Name."
The Attributes, or Manifestations, were such divinities as were essential to bear the Messages of Truth to the children of Earth.
So buried are these symbols of the Primal Ancient Worship in the later and perverted inscriptions, that no records of the work of the Angels in Egypt can be clearly gained except from the Angels in higher realms, and the learning of the sacred orders descending through Phenicia, Greece and Rome and other more recent nations.
But even Egypt sends her soul of the past to restore the knowledge of her living light, and to place before the eyes that can see, the vast luminous background of her real existence.
Scholarship has restored much through the disentombing of buried cities and deciphering the inscriptions on monuments, walls, tablets - especially through the finding of the key and solving of the Cuneiform inscriptions of which Egypt was the prima! source - but which are handed down through Accadia, Babylon, etc., etc. But without the presence of the Angels there could be little or no progress made - they reveal, interpret and make known the meanings of the inscriptions, whether Ideographic or in symbols and language.
