Ancient Phoenicians
Finally, a Historically Accurate Bible That Honors the Ancient Phoenicians By Marshall Masters
The word "Bible" is generically associated with the Holy Bible in Western societies. Nonetheless, a quick search on Amazon will also turn up other applications of the word such as The Barbeque Bible, The Boomer Bible, The Organic Cooking Bible, etc. No matter what kind of itch you have, you'll likely find an authoritative Bible on Amazon that scratches it. Now there's another Bible on Amazon, and it is just as serious, just as large and just as old as the Torah and New Testament combined. It is The Kolbrin Bible and it is first ancient wisdom text to honor the Phoenicians from whom we derived the word "Bible" because of the wonderful gift of knowledge we inherited from them.
School children know the word "Bible" comes from the Greek word "bublos," which describes papyrus (an ancient Egyptian writing material made of reeds), and which is derived from the name of Byblos, an ancient Phoenician port that once thrived on the coast of present day Lebanon. What is not commonly known is that the Greek alphabet was developed from the 22-letter Phoenician alphabet. Likewise, the Latin, English and Cyrillic alphabets were also derived from the Phoenician alphabet.
The Phoenicians based their alphabet on an ancient Egyptian hieratic script. This is why the history of The Kolbrin Bible makes it the first Bible of any kind to honor a history that begins in the days following the Jewish Exodus from Egypt.
The Torah (Old Testament) version of the Ten Plagues of Egypt is the history of a nation and it describes a righteous victory of Moses over Pharaoh. In simple terms, it is the story of Exodus as told by the victor. Conversely, the first six books of The Kolbrin Bible, which are collectively referred to as the Egyptian texts, contain the story of Exodus as told by the defeated some 3600 years ago. While there are many similarities between the stories of the Torah and the Egyptian Texts, it is the latter that offers a truly unvarnished account of a nation shaken to its core.
