I Try to Explain Egyptian Mythology 

I mean, it's not wrong is it?

@@dunkleosteusterrelli Whoever said it was?

He’s right the millisecond a thing happens

Wrighting*

@@GabrielPerez-br5mm *Writing.

The Egyptians were actually awkwardly knowing about what happens when you commit incest, and even some gods and a lot of the royals resented it, and still yet, at the same time many people did extremely incestual things. *cough* cleopatra *cough* married her brother *cough* Edit: this comment is at exactly 100 likes please nobody like it!

I hate to keep talking but… lol. Poseidon’s sons Orion and other son Triton posed as a threat to the gods, so Artemis had to kill them as the great hunter she was. She pretended to like Orion better than Triton to make him hate his brother and kill him, blah blah I don’t have to say the full story. But basically, when Artemis was in love with her cousin, nobody questioned that? Not weird at all? *cough* incest

@@johmlemon532 that is greek mythology

Can't be a chad if your spine is isn't crooked at birth am i right?

@@sirseedott4436 lol.

Sounds cool

Would be cool to see that, never really find any great explanation about it

Yaaaas

YES.

I would love to see his simplified Aztec mythology

It still a mystery how the brilliant Cleopatra who learned 10 languages was born of that fucked up family tree she had

Actually it was more because Ra foresaw the children of Nut and Geb would bring disaster (and he was right since Isis was able steal Ra’s saliva and create a deadly cobra to poison Ra. Ra didn’t die but was in so much agony. Isis was able to cure it, but under the condition Ra giving her his secret name, which she was able to use to get him to step down and let Osiris rule, which then snowballed into all the Set drama) In response to said prophecy, Ra forbade Nut from giving birth any day of the year (and in this time it was 360 days) Nut got a loophole by having Thoth gamble with Khonsu the Moon God and won enough moonlight for 5 new days, resulting in her and Geb’s children Osiris, Isis, Set, Nephthys, and Horus the Elder. This loophole abuse seriously pissed off Ra, who then had Shu keep Nut and Geb apart

Don't think the gods thought anything was off limits. Its hard to be against something when your the embodiment of it.

Pretty sure many knew... Buuuut when it comes to securing power within the family or have some kids that are weird down the line many chose the former, cus surely the next generation will not inbreed (ad infinitum till they're conquered by someone else)

Yeah, these gods are smarter the Greek ones...

True

it's set

Just a average day of furries fighting big ess snakes in. The watah.

It's not a euphemism He literally sneezed them out ...... but don't take my word for it

Maybe something more obscure? Zoroastrian and Aztec would be hella cool.

Japanese?

Aztec

Aztec ? maybe

Native American mythology would be a good idea.

You heard about balls of steel, get ready for the new and improved shaft of gold!!

You won't believe what other videos he has

relatable

Ah did your German grandpa from Argentina also tell you why he hated France so much

It's by

Yeah you're right

Yeah I know that guy ti

they put the unboiled jar in it

The white stuff is not salad ceacer

​@@adlinafaliha4641 it is a "different sauce"

@@hectorryan7591 a very sticky sauce

ikr😻

Just looked it up, wtf horus

@@jacksfacts20 Exactly

If anyone's curious as to what exactly Horus put in Set's salad.... it was semen. He put his semen in the dish.

@@Boss_Isaac ☕ interesting

@@Boss_Isaac and some how seth got pregnant

@@Boss_Isaac this sounds like a tuesday

@@adlinafaliha4641 Huh... yeah ok, I definitely don't remember _that_ part. 🤨 Which god came about as a result?

baby batter

Wait what did he put in it?

@@ZayAvengeR uh let’s say baby batter

@@ZayAvengeRhe added a little extra seed to the salad

seminal fluid.

HUH

what the hell did i just read

And I though the Greeks were bad

Why

Wtf?

why did you make me search it up

@@theuhthegotdamuh if i know about it, EVERYONE has to!

@@jamsandwichiguess8082 I mean, you did success, I already know that the myth exists but now my FBI agent knows as well

@@theuhthegotdamuh what did you learn?

Thoth’s grain of sand

Might have been possible in Stargate

If I had a nickel for every time a Sun God in mythology fought a giant snake I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

Can’t forget set joining them

​@@remcrimson2750 I was about to say the same thing.

Its The Egyptian's Version Of Call Of Duty Games That Was Put In Our History Lessons. -AvaTheMemeLegends129

Wow that’s evil yet clever well played jake

homestuck detected

wow really@@Ven__

Well religion just depended on the city and so when one particular city dominated their version of the story became the dominant one. Sometimes they just edited the story. It happened on most very ancient mythologies (Greek myths varied depending on the time and place) but it's very visible for the Egyptians since it's the chief god that changed several times (3?). Probably because the center of power of the whole Egypt changed like that.

He’s the reason I did that too… I’ve read huge books about different mythology’s the past few months

@@johmlemon532 same bro!

This is either a joke or incredibly impressive

Im Egyptian too but i think your English is just fine

ok (sorry for bad england)

@@3ambeast296 is it true that you had an entire war based on a Monster battle simulator using rocks that was adapted into a trading card game?

@@pokuhmoo9415 i dont have a single idea of what you're talking about

He cusses in most vids or the characters he voices and there are very 18+ moments he doesn’t show because of demonetization i think?

I- more or less i guess :P

basically yes

Pretty much, yeah. All of the gods have like, animal heads. And they worship animals, especially cats.

That about sums it up.

@@Lasanga95 Hello there most amazing person in the entire world.

Can you explain?

@@spectra1_ oh……that’s kinda messed up. Not surprising

He referenced it here 4:22

What was in the lettuce? Wait, did he, no fucking way he semen'd inside his uncle's salad

Yes that would be amazing

@@hadesuzumaki4425 like I know a bit like how he transitioned from a murderous vengeful god to a protector and is also know as another figure for the god of fertility but I’d want to see how Jake explains it in his comedic style and drawings

I was hoping to see Khonshu mentioned :c

Eh didn't really do much as far as I can tell there was that one time where he gambled with thoth because Ra was angry with nut though

^^^^^

Hmmmm but they did copy from other cultures though, even if it wasn't from the Ancient Greeks that we know, it has loads of similarities with Mesophotamian myths and potentially proto Greek stories that shaped Ancient Greek stories. So you can't make it sound like it was all original because it wasn't

That specific part is referring to the greek writer, Plutarch's recounting of the Osiris Myth. Isis travels to Byblos where Osiris's body had washed up on a pile of heather which grew around him into a tree. The tree was then chopped into a pillar for the king of Byblos's temple, with Osiris still inside. I believe all of that is corroborated in other authentic Egyptian sources, but what follows matches a section from The Homeric Hymn to Demeter to a tee: Isis (Demeter in the Homeric Hymn) disguises herself as a human woman and meets the king's maidservants who bring her back to the palace. She's then charged with taking care of the king's son, who she nurses and attempts to make immortal by bathing him in fire each night. But the mother sees her and interrupts the spell, causing Isis to reveal her true form in anger. This story structure is first seen in The Homeric Hymn to Demeter, and as far as I'm aware does not show up in Egyptian tradition until Plutarch. So it was either adopted from Greek tradition, or added by Plutarch himself.

@@JakeDoubleyoo You are the first person to ever mention that and I am so happy you acknowledged it. I remember a TED-ed video and thinking to myself "isn't that just the homeric hymn to demeter". I kind of suspected that maybe the myth was some syncretism when Alexander or the Ptolemy's took over Egypt, incorporating their greek myths into the local religion.

@@JakeDoubleyoo hey dude, can you do Aztec mythology? There’s a lot to unload, and it feels like the next mythology to animate, on your channel.

As the saying goes, an eye for a God makes the whole world... That's it... Also, the sky.

Yes, Sekhmet originated as a transfiguration of Ra's eye, and Horus had his eye restored by Thoth after losing it in battle against Set.

seekhmet is also a form of hathor

Speak for yourself, (hopefully) knife less human (?)
