This is an excerpt from the *Oahspe Bible* (1882), a 19th-century American spiritualist scripture channeled by dentist John Ballou Newbrough, written in archaic biblical prose. It presents an alternative cosmological history of ancient Egypt ("Egupt"), tracing the land's founding through a divinely guided migration from drought-stricken Persia, then narrating several generations of Egyptian rulers down to the builder-king Thothma. Its central claim is that Thothma — manipulated by the spirit Osiris into believing himself a reincarnated heavenly prophet — constructed the Great Pyramid not as a tomb but as a spiritualist temple for astral travel and mastering bodily dormancy. The text also argues that the biblical Genesis creation narrative, including the name "Adam," was an Egyptian state fabrication inserted into royal libraries by king Rowtsag under Osiris's direction, and that Ezra later misappropriated these records as Israelite ("Iz'Zerlite") scripture. Distinctively, it frames the "Faithists" — followers of a supreme being called Jehovih — as a persecuted monotheist underground within Egypt, stripped of property and forbidden to speak God's name openly under pain of death by the theocratic Thothma. The text blends elements of Egyptology, biblical revisionism, and 19th-century Spiritualist doctrine into a sweeping supernatural counter-history of religious origins.
