Hermes
and the Holy Bible
Hermes Trismegistus gave teachings
which are found throughout the Holy Bible as shown below. He is said to have existed
before either Moses or the Pharaohs. In the Egyptian hieroglyphics he is represented by a
bird with a hawks head.
He wrote 42 profound works in the fields of
astrology,geology,hieroglyphics,philosophy,hymns to God,religious ceremonies, and
sacerdotal discipline. Very few of these works are extant today. Most of the
esoteric teachings found in the Bible are restatements of Herme's teachings. He
actually even taught the Trinity, God being three persons in one. His teachings were
utilized by Moses, the Egyptian culture, and later are found throughout the world's major
religions. Most of that found in the Old and New Testament which is obviously revelatory
knowledge and not common to man's normal understanding can be traced back to this great
teacher. I suppose an observation that can be made from all of this is that while we know
that God is no respecter of persons, He also is not a respecter of generations, revealing
himself to one generation and not disclosing himself to other generations. Knowledge of
God's nature, works, and attributes have been available to persons of every age who apply
themselves to seeking it out. A review of the verses referenced below will reveal the
extent to which Hermes was used of God to reveal Himself.
