May and June in Egypt are the worst times of the year. For 50 days in a row, the wind blows from the desert, carrying with it hot sand and dust. Sand squeaks on your teeth and gets into your clothes. Everything is dying from the heat. The Egyptians believed that Osiris died then. In the middle of summer, the terrible wind of the desert subsides, the Nile begins to flood, nature comes to life, the fields and trees turn green - it is Osiris who has come to life again.

Religion of Ancient Egyptians

Problematic question Why was it important for the pharaoh to have a tomb - a pyramid? What are the similarities between the religious beliefs of the ancient Egyptians and primitive people?

Look at the drawing. This is what one of the oldest temples could have looked like - the temple of the goddess of war and hunting Neith. In the courtyard in front of the temple there is a sign of this goddess - a shield with two crossed arrows. The Egyptians believed that housing was needed not only by people, but also by the gods. In ancient times, temples - “dwellings of the gods” were built from reeds and clay. These temples have not survived.

Temples - homes of the gods

Priests There were priests at the temples - that it was the priest who knew best how to talk to God. The pharaohs gave the temples fertile lands, livestock, slaves, gold and silver. Gifts were made to the gods, but the priests disposed of them.

What role did the priests play in ancient Egyptian society? Priests Stargazing Servants of worship Medicine Construction of the pyramids Mathematics

What the Egyptians told about their gods: the god of the Nile - Hapi, one of the main gods of Egypt, Ra, Amon or Amon-Ra - the god of the sun. His name is translated as “sun”. The deity appeared either in the form of a bull or in the form of a Phoenix bird.

Geb personified the main deity of the earth. Why is Geb depicted with the head of a snake?

He patronized knowledge and wisdom. God of the moon, writing, counting, magic and sorcery. He was depicted with the head of an ibis bird. Thoth was called the "scribe of the gods." He was depicted as a man with the head of an ibis, often with a brush for writing and a palette in his hands. Thoth's wife was the goddess Maat.

One of the central female deities, Bastet, or Bast, personified the hearth, femininity, fertility, joy and fun. The goddess was depicted in the form of a cat or a woman with a cat's head, in the earliest tradition - in the form of a lioness. Often four kittens were depicted at the goddess’s feet.

    Slide 1

    1. Gods and priests.

    Religion originated among the Egyptians, as well as among other peoples, in primitive times. Life then depended on successful hunting and gathering: that’s why the Egyptians worshiped animals and birds. They endowed plants with supernatural properties. These beliefs persisted throughout the history of Ancient Egypt. These beliefs are called totemism.

    Along with this, the Egyptians developed a belief in gods, who were often depicted in the guise of people with animal, bird or snake heads.

    Slide 4

    A) Amon - Ra - sun god (change of day and night)

    In the 3rd thousand years BC. Agriculture in Egypt became the main occupation and the sun god became one of the main gods of the Egyptians. After all, sunlight and heat affect the growth of cereals and other useful plants. It can burn mercilessly, burning crops, drying up water bodies, turning the earth into rock. The Egyptians believed in the power of the sun god.

    D) Bastet - goddess of female beauty

    Slide 8

    E) Osiris and Isis – change of seasons.

    In spring, all of our nature blooms. And in Egypt, May and June are the worst times of the year. For 50 days in a row, the wind blows from the desert, carrying with it hot sand and dust. Sand squeaks on the teeth, dust penetrates the folds of clothing, clogs into the pores of the skin, and the eyes of people and animals become inflamed. Everything dies from the heat. In the middle of summer, the terrible desert wind subsides, the river begins to flood and nature comes to life again. Trying to understand the reasons for this annual recurring natural phenomenon, the Egyptians came up with a legend.

    The Myth of Osiris and Isis

    Once upon a time the god Osiris was the king of Egypt. Large dark eyes sparkled on his dark face, and his hair was shiny and black, like the land itself on the banks of the Nile. Good Osiris taught the Egyptians to grow grain and grapes and bake bread.

    Slide 9

    The younger brother of Osiris, Set, was the god of the desert and sandstorms. He had small, angry eyes and sandy hair.

    Set was jealous of Osiris and hated him.

    Slide 10

    One day Seth came to a feast in the royal palace. Servants carried behind him a luxurious coffin, decorated with images and inscriptions. “Whoever fits this precious coffin,” said Seth, “will get it!” The guests were not surprised by the gift: the Egyptians from a young age prepared for life in the “land of the dead.” One by one the guests lay down in the coffin, but it was too big for them. It was Osiris' turn. As soon as he lay down on the bottom of the wooden box, Seth's servants slammed the lid. They picked up the coffin and threw it into the waters of the Nile. Osiris died.

    Slide 11

    The faithful wife of Osiris, the goddess Isis, wept bitterly. She was hiding from Seth in dense thickets on the banks of the Nile.

    Slide 12

    She nursed her little son there - the god Horus.

    Slide 13

    When Horus matured, he decided to take revenge on Set for the death of his Father. Horus entered into single combat with him and defeated the enemy in a fierce battle.

    Slide 14

    Isis searched for a long time in the swamps of the delta for the coffin with her husband’s body. Having found it, she miraculously revived Osiris.

    Slide 15, 16

    God resurrected, but did not want to stay on earth. He became a king and judge in the “land of the dead,” and Horus became the patron saint of earthly pharaohs. Isis became the protector of all wives and mothers.

    Why did the Egyptians, when depicting Osiris, paint his body green? Why did they often depict Osiris sitting among trees or with a vine entwining his figure?

    Conclusion: The myth talks about how Osiris taught people agriculture, grape growing, and crafts.

    Seth's cunning and his desire to take the throne speaks of a struggle for power, internecine wars between the rulers of states.

    This myth reflects people's ideas about the afterlife. A coffin was presented to Osiris as a gift. It is difficult to imagine our reaction in such a case. For the ancient Egyptians, such a gift was considered the best, because people prepared for the afterlife while they were still alive.

    The myth reflects the belief in justice: the son of Osiris, the god Horus, defeated the evil and treacherous god Set (god of sandstorms, war, evil and deceit).

    3) "Kingdom of the Dead"

    Slide 17

    “Osiris administers judgment in the kingdom of the dead. And the judgment of Osiris is fair. The judgment of Pharaoh is just as fair.”

    Slide 18

    What do the Egyptians tell us about the “kingdom of the dead”?

    Read paragraph 4 and look at the picture. Who, according to the beliefs of the Egyptians, could go to the “kingdom of the dead”? Why did everyone strive to get to this country?

    Slide 19, 20

    The Egyptians deified the pharaoh. They believed that he was not just a man, but an earthly god, and they called him the son of the Sun. The sun god is a king among gods, and his son, Pharaoh, is a king among people.

    Slide 21

    Consolidation.

    Which gods were especially revered by the ancient Egyptians and why?

    The ancient Egyptians had special love and respect for cats. Why do you think the cat was a sacred animal in Egypt?

    How did the Egyptians' beliefs explain the most important natural phenomena?
