- Hey everyone, welcome to Mythology Explained. In today’s video, we’re going to dive into Egyptian Mythology, going over its 10 most powerful gods. I’ll make another video for the goddesses later on. The order in which the gods are discussed in this video isn’t based on power but on precedent, beginning with the creators.
Alright, let’s get into it.
Starting us off is Ptah.
One of ancient Egypt's many creator deities, Ptah was said to have created the world with his heart and tongue. According to the beliefs of the ancient Egyptians, the heart was the center of thought and feeling. Because of this, Ptah first pictured and planned the creation of the world in his heart, visualizing the world as a craftsman visualizes his next project. With the idea conceived, it then passed to the tongue, which manifested the idea, bringing it to life.
In addition to his role as the creator of the world, It was said that Ptah could fashion new bodies for the dead, furnishing them with new flesh. He was the patron of craftsmen, particularly sculptors and metalworkers. And the Greeks equated him with Hephaestus, their own divine smith.
Most often Ptah was depicted as a bearded man, and among his most salient features are a skullcap and blue skin. The skullcap that covered his head was that of an artisan, and his blue skin was celestial blue, which is why he was known by the epithet, “he who is beautiful of face.” The scepter he carried united the djed, the was, and the ankh. The djed is a pillar-like symbol representing stability; the was is a staff that represents power and dominion; and the ankh is a cross-shaped symbol with a loop that represents life. Egyptian pharaohs were commonly crowned in Ptah’s temple at Memphis, and it was thought that the three attributes embodied by his scepter were bestowed on them at their inaugurations.
Sekhmet, the goddess who at one time nearly exterminated the human race, was Ptah’s consort. Together they had a son, Nefertem, the god of the primeval lotus, creator gods sometimes described as emerging from this lotus, signifying their engenderment and the commencement of their great work.

Thanks for watching! :)
Does the Horus Myth predate the Jesus Myth?
jesus not a myth homie. ;) @@allnamesaretakenful
You forgot that Geb and Nut had 5 children not 4. Osiris, Set, Horus the elder, Isis and Nephthys. Horus the elder deserves to be remembered
horus is Osiris son
Horus is a grandson
@@redbeard3606 there are 2 Neteru named Horus(Heru). One is the brother of Isis(Auset) and Osiris(Ausir). The other is their son.
@@joeyyslayton8456 there are 2 Deities (Neteru) named Horus. One is the son of Isis and Osiris the other is their brother. I am a Kemetic Pagan, and I’ve been studying this.
I believe that Isis was awarded "Honorary Goddess" status for birthing Horus by her beloved husband the GodKing Osiris.
She was awarded a crown of nine upright Serpents to signify her honorary Goddess status.
The Greeks turn her crown into a head of Serpents with Medusa raped by Posoiden instead of husband and wife.
The Greeks are patriarchal people and take the same view as the Hebrews, that Eve was the cause of our fall.
The Egyptians honoured Isis as our Mother Goddess and just as Europe was prior to the Indo-European invaders, the Queen bestowed the right for the male to be king or Pharaoh. She was Queen of the Land, it's fertility. Her husband was King of the people.
Isis is also symbolised like Sehkmet as a Lionness headed Goddess.
I believe she is the Sphinx, guarding the tomb of her beloved husband the green skinned GodKing Osiris, also wrapped in shroud like P'tah.
Different cities had different mythologies.
THOTH DJEHUTY my best friend for life ❤
Thanks for the video 👍🏻
Great selection of art/pictograms!
I'm just tryin to find out the lineup for the next God of War tbh. Thanks man 👍🏾
Heh I was going to ask about ra with the creation myth off him um spermiciding the cosmic egg hehehe 😅😅😅❤❤❤ Ty, another good vid😊😊
Hey I heard something. Cool the other day saying when Marduk married a mortal sarpania, got exhiled north n became the norse gods but they said Marduk equals ra while exhiled atum ra meant the hidden ra.... hehehe ❤❤❤😊😊😊
I didn’t know atum was also apart of ra like Amun. No wonder why Ra is viewed as a Monotheistic Deity. Also the origin of the phoenix came from Ra and Egypt because Ra is the phoenix
In ancient Hebrew Ra means evil.
Are gods of destruction and death typically evil, or is that just their job?
Job. Like now Apep should come to earth. Him and Sobek, and Set should cause a reset here.
@@lordoffaiyum9727 interesting
Yes.
They are both evil, deliberately causing death and destruction.
And necessary, life needs death, creation needs destruction, order needs chaos, and so on.
@@GODSsoldier27 good thing Gods are Gods then. Or they will be evil
What a great question!!!
Very interesting portrail of these! Always fascinated to hear more. The Ankh is two symbols. The circle "0" on top. On the bottom a "T" representing mankinds progression from the ground-up to a point in time now before us! To the left will be more suffering. To the Right will be 1000 years of peace. Thank you Sir.
😂Rechts
That's not what it means 😅
You hue man's so lost
The circle on top also represents the woman's vulva. The Egyptians are the primordial deities of fertility
@@phoenixthundertarot3738so what does it mean then?
I just wanted to ask how do something that gets devoured end up devouring something else
Parasites
Hopefully Sony researches this video for the next God of war saga.
Forever
You forgot sobek, montu and maahes who were also war gods and nun the god of primordial waters. Montu a war god challenged and defeated Horus in a fight when Horus mocked montu’s martial prowess

How many gods do these people need? I wouldn't want to worship some weak useless gods. We should only worship the true Almighty GOD, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Your god is useless and powerless 😂
