Old STELAI and our comprehension
Dear Friends,
we all know of the Greek word STELE, usually known to denote stone
objects of obelisk form, carved stones. However, attentive reading of
Septuagint translation easily alerts us that in Alexandria, the STELE
was something aiding to seeing, aiding to visions, they write of STELE
and GRAPHEIN not merely to denote carving of symbols of different
scripts on stone blocks! So we find interesting notices of
STELOGRAPHIA in Psalms 56-60 and 16, they write og STELE and visions.
More of this is written in extensive article in http://stele-vision.website.orange.co.uk
This website notices circumstances and cultures of ancient Egypt and
some Aramaic speaking areas- surely this is interesting for everyone
studying ancient cultures!
