In Old Egypt: A Story About The Bible But Not In The Bible is a historical fiction novel written by Henry Pereira Mendes and first published in 1903. The story is set in ancient Egypt and follows the life of a Jewish family living in the city of Memphis during the reign of Pharaoh Ramses II. The main character, Amram, is a scribe who is tasked with recording the events of his time for future generations. As the story unfolds, Amram witnesses the plagues that God inflicts upon Egypt and the subsequent exodus of the Israelites led by Moses. He also witnesses the construction of the Tabernacle and the Ark of the Covenant, and the struggles of the Israelites as they journey through the desert. The novel is unique in that it adds a fictional perspective to the events of the Bible, providing insight into the daily lives and experiences of the Jewish people during this time period. The author draws on his extensive knowledge of Jewish history and culture to create a vivid and engaging portrayal of life in ancient Egypt. In Old Egypt: A Story About The Bible But Not In The Bible is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in biblical history or ancient Egypt. It offers a fresh perspective on a well-known story and brings to life a world that has long since passed into history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
