      Ah,yes. It probably had something to do with the fact that Set was the only god strong enough to help Ra beat up Apep every now and then. Which means he might be one of the few capable of massacring them all.
      Jokes aside,the original myth actually states he took Osiris,or Wesir,out on a walk alone near the Nile,before he proceeded to kill him through unknown means. It's taboo,so people didn't talk about how he killed him.

    I thought Osiris was green or black to represent either green plants or the black silt of the Nile (both associated with fertility and harvest)?

    • @jaredjordan9863
      @jaredjordan9863 6 лет назад +20

      The same color could represent multiple concepts. For example, Anubis has black skin. The black represents the body of a mummified corpse and the black soot of the Nile. Basically, it represents life and death as two sides of the same coin.

      Jessica Bishop and she did it because seth couldn't have children and she desperaly wanted one. When Isis find out she didn't blame Anubis at all and even raised him... well, that's the version I know, I don't really know what happened to Nephathys to not raise the child she despeared wanted. BUT IN EVERY VERSION I KNOW OSIRIS WAS ALWAYS TRICKED.

    • @alyseleem2692
      @alyseleem2692 3 года назад

      I'm sorry to disappoint you,dear friends,but this account is largely attributed to Plutarch,and it's full accuracy is suspect.
      No one actually knows why Sutekh killed Wesir,although some say it was a kick.
      I'm not joking,it's apparently in the Pyramid Texts.

    • @alyseleem2692
      @alyseleem2692 3 года назад

      @@custosluna8433 Aside from that,there is one version where he isn't.
      It's said he raped her while drunk. There was no plan for a child.
      This probably has to do with the idea that Anubis, or Yinepu,was not originally a son of Wesir at all, but a son of Ra and an unknown figure,possibly his wife Hesat. He was also the original Khenty Imentiu,Lord of The Westerners,God of the Dead.
      The connection was thought to have been invented by Plutarch to include Anubis in the Osirian myth as well as connect events more expeditiously, as before this myth, Yinepu's full parentage was suspect .
      In other words,in the original myth, Yinepu was by and far Wesir's senior.

      And perhaps, for good reason. Late,but yes,kind of.
      In the oldest texts,Wesir's referred to in a somber manner,and is far more feared than loved. He lives in a silent world,no heaven,simply a dark,cold,sad place,and no mention of him being it's ruler is given,as by that time, the position still belonged to Anubis ( Yinepu),original ruler of the dead and later guide and holder of the Scales.
      In one version of the myth, Sutekh killed Wesir because his wife slept with Wesir. The exact circumstances differ. Older versions say he raped her while drunk,others say she,a twin of Isis ( Aset) in visage,tricked him and laid with him,for she wished to be with child and Sutekh in this version is not capable.
      Accounts of his death differ,too. Older sources say he and his brother went for a walk by the cataracts of the Nile.
      Only one came back.
      All in all,myths depict Wesir either as an imperfect,cruel man who nonetheless did his duty as king,or an ineffectual, yet supremely generous,kind and forgiving ideal of a king. Both versions are undercut by his aspect as king of the underworld,always thirsting for vengeance and justice for not only himself, but all wrongs made by men.

      He's King of the underworld.
      The underworld or Duat is divided by 12 gates,each one guarded by a lesser,hellish god of the Deep. They all feast on those who do not know the Sacred Words, the Names that let them pass each door. When in wrath,they may bring havoc upon the living as they do for the dead. And in their master's wrath, it is assured.
