The Egyptians resisted Akhenaton's shift to monotheism primarily because it challenged their long-standing polytheistic beliefs and traditions that were deeply integrated into their daily lives and culture. The worship of multiple gods had been central to their understanding of the universe and the maintenance of cosmic order, or ma'at. Additionally, the drastic changes in religious practices and the neglect of traditional temples and priesthoods threatened the established social and political order, leading to widespread discontent among both the populace and the powerful priestly class.
