The only possible answer for the survival of these pyramids and for the continuation of the Egyptian civilisation right through the time of Noah's Flood, is that there never was a worldwide flood as portrayed in The Bible.

Did early Jews make the pyramids for the Egyptian Pharaohs?

"This bit of accepted wisdom, that "...the Pyramids [were] built by slaves who were Jews.." (as stated in your message of 1 September), is a canard that does not deserve repetition. First, it is anachronistic and illogical. The "Pyramids" -- presumably the three great pyramids of Gizah and perhaps the earlier pyramids to the south, including the Step Pyramid of Sakkara -- were built in the Third and Fourth Dynasties, 2650-2575 BC and 2575-2467 BC. The Jews did not exist at that time. The ancestors of the Jews, the Hebrews or "Children of Israel" -- Bene Yisra'el -- did not enter Egypt until centuries later. If one looks at the biblical narrative, Joseph, son of Jacob aka Israel, who brought the people of Israel into Egypt to settle in the land of Goshen, was driven in a chariot just behind Pharaoh's. The Egyptians did not have the wheel when the great pyramids were built. By the time the Egyptians had wheels, and horses and chariots, the great pyramids were ancient. Even if one were to determine that the migration of the Sumerian/Chaldean Abraham from the Sumerian city of Ur to the land of the Canaanites took place around the predynastic or early dynastic periods of ancient Egypt, there would still have been no Jews in Egypt at the time -- or anywhere else for that matter. Second, recent scholarship on ancient Egypt has suggested -- concluded, perhaps -- that the pyramids were built by corvees of native Egyptians conscripted into temporary service on the pyramids, probably during the flood season when their labor on the farm could be spared. Managing these labor gangs were professional craftsmen whose villages near the pyramids have been under excavation and study".Ronald Hilton - 9/6/01The pulling of large rocks in ancient Egypt was done by oxen.


What pharaohs have pyramids at Giza?

The pyramids at Giza are primarily associated with three pharaohs of the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom: Khufu (Cheops), who built the Great Pyramid, Khafre (Chephren), known for the second pyramid and the Great Sphinx, and Menkaure (Mycerinus), who constructed the smallest of the three pyramids. These monumental structures served as elaborate tombs, reflecting the pharaohs' power and religious significance in ancient Egyptian society.


What ruler was in charge of making the pyramids?

The pyramids of Egypt, particularly the Great Pyramid of Giza, were commissioned by Pharaoh Khufu (also known as Cheops) during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom, around 2580–2560 BCE. Khufu's pyramid is the largest of the three pyramids at Giza and served as his tomb. The construction of these monumental structures was a massive undertaking that involved a significant workforce and advanced engineering techniques for the time.


What happened when the pyramids?

The pyramids, particularly the Great Pyramid of Giza, were constructed during Egypt's Fourth Dynasty, around 2580–2560 BCE, as monumental tombs for pharaohs. These structures showcased advanced engineering and were part of a larger complex that included temples and smaller pyramids for queens. Over time, many pyramids fell into disrepair due to natural erosion, looting, and the removal of stones for other building projects. Today, they remain a testament to ancient Egyptian civilization and continue to attract scholars and tourists alike.
