Wow! I hadn't seen that comparison done before. Given the history of the relationship between Egypt and the Hebrew people (back to Joseph & the Amazing Techni--I mean, Joseph, the dream interpreter in Genesis), it makes a lot of sense that tropes from Egyptian religion would be present throughout--moreso than some of the other religions/mythologies with parallels. Tolkien wrote about all of those things roughly being in a large mythological cauldron, Jung talks about the collective unconscious, and Barfield about original participation--the correspondence of ideas just makes sense!

Thanks so much for posting. Great link.
