The Lost Prophet
When we look at the kings of ancient Egypt, we find them always represented as Holy King and the warrior hero. This stereotype never changed for millenniums. But Akhenaten came to change all the rules of the game and shock the Egyptian society in all respects; this man did not gain fame like his ancestors as a great conqueror with decisive battles, such as Thutmose III. Or influential administrative reformer, such as Horemheb. Or is remarkable for his immortal installations like: Ramses II, or Khufu, but he changed the royal and societal traditions of his time; he began to change his name and royal ceremonies based on rigidity and rigor and set out towards realism in his embodiment and the depiction of his diary and became "the living in fact." However, the most dangerous thing he came up with was his overthrow of the worship of his ancestors, and he brought about a religious-intellectual revolution that resonated in the history of religions, and a philosophical view that preceded Pericillus and Socrates, namely: the idea of monotheism, an idea that was directly and fundamentally linked to heavenly monotheism. We find that many scholars have linked Akhenaten to the prophets of the Old Testament and attributed to him the precursors of the idea of monotheism and considered him to be the preacher of oneness before the prophets (Moses, David, Solomon); basing their theories on work of a literary nature, namely: (Anthems of Aton).
