Why did the ancient Egyptians treat their pharaohs like their god on earth?
They believed that the Pharaoh was Osiris on earth. Osiris was the god of the underworld, only after his jealous brother Seth chopped him up and spread him throughout Egypt. This allowed all Egyptians to have a special connection to Osiris. Isis, Osiris' wife/sister bound him up (the first mummy) and put him back together, and that is why he is the god of the underworld, who weighs your heart against a feather, judging your ethics and deeds. This is where mummification starts too. The Pharaoh was the living representation of Osiris.

What did Egyptians believe that there pharaohs were?
The Egyptians viewed the ruling pharaoh as a god, the son of the sun-god Ra, and not merely as a representative of the gods. He was thought to be the incarnation of the falcon-headed god Horus the successor of Osiris. Among the pompous titles accorded him were "the sun of the two worlds," "Lord of the Crown," "the mighty god," "offspring of Ra," "the eternal," and many, many others. (History of Ancient Egypt, by G. Rawlinson, 1880, Vol. I, pp. 373, 374; History ofthe World, by J. Ridpath, 1901, Vol. I, p. 72) Fastened to the front of his crown was an image of the sacred uraeus, or cobra, which supposedly spat out fire and destruction upon his enemies. The image of the pharaoh was often placed in temples among those of the other gods. There are even Egyptian pictures of the reigning pharaoh worshiping his own image. As god, Pharaoh's word was law, and he ruled not according to a law code but by decree. Nevertheless, history shows that his supposedly absolute power was considerably limited by other forces within the empire, including the priesthood, the nobility, and the military. These points help in understanding how difficult Moses' assignment was in appearing before Pharaoh and presenting Jehovah's requests and warnings.-Compare Ex 5:1, 2; 10:27, 28.thWell Egyptians viewed Pharaoh's as high class people. They ruled Egypt as in they were king but Queen Hatshepsut (Thutmose the seconds wife) took over as king when he died. So if you didn't look up to them something bad would happen to you.He received power directly from the gods. He was appointed by the gods to rule the empire. He possessed the secrets of the gods.
