Later, Osiris was persecuted to death by his brother Seth, and was taken over by the gods as the king of hades, so he was even more regarded as the god of hades. In ancient Egypt, people also worshipped Osiris very much, and later his position was almost equal to that of the sun god. On the one hand, Egypt held a memorial ceremony to mourn the death of Osiris every year when the Nile fell. They symbolically killed death and then celebrated his resurrection. The purpose of this is to hope that plants will have a bumper harvest next year and avoid disaster.
It is said that this is because the Nile people regard this god, who symbolizes high yield, lush plants and developed everything, as the reason for the changes of the four seasons. If God is injured or dies, rivers will dry up, the land will be barren and plants will wither. When God is resurrected, the Nile will be full of water, fertile land and full of vitality. This ceremony showed the ancient Egyptians' naive understanding of the mysterious natural society, and it reflected the ancient people's eagerness to conquer nature. On the other hand, Osiris is also very important as the god of Hades, which is related to the religious beliefs of ancient Egyptians. Egyptians believe in animism, and they are particularly concerned about human survival. Different from other nationalities, Egyptians believe that there is life after death, and life after death is as important as before. Only when people complete a life extension before and after death can they get the final peace and complete life.
So there are many myths and legends of hades in Egypt. Because Hades ruled all the dead people, that is, the people in the underworld, Osiris, as the guardian of Hades, had a sacred position. Egyptians, whether they are pharaohs, nobles or ordinary people at the lower level, all want to be loved by hades after death, so there are pampered pyramids, refined mummies and death books for the dead.
However, whether as the god of fertility or the god of hades, Osiris and his wife Isis are spouses and accompany each other. Isis is also the god of fertility and a famous Egyptian witch. She and Osiris are a pair of important agricultural fertility gods. After Osiris became the guardian of Hades, he also lived in the underworld with her husband and became the queen of the underworld. The story about this couple is the most vivid and interesting myth after the legend of La Shen, and Osiris is even considered as the successor of La Shen. According to legend, when Osiris was born, a voice in the sky said that he would be the master of all things. La Shen was old, and really handed over the sovereignty of the earth to Osiris, but he ascended to heaven himself.
Osiris took the throne of Egypt and became the ruler here. When he ascended the throne, Egypt was still very backward, and mankind was in a savage state. They mainly hunt, and tribes often fight and kill each other. Osiris began to rule the country. It is said that he made laws to quell tribal disputes and improve people's living conditions, so Egypt became a peaceful and unified country.
Isis, as the queen of Osiris, knew human needs well, so she picked wild barley and gave it to her husband.
Osiris taught mankind to cultivate land, sow grain, plant fruit trees and make plants grow on wasteland. After these things were done, the Egyptian people stopped the war and began to live a happy and beautiful life. When Egypt prospered, Osiris wanted to travel around the world. In his absence, he handed over the kingship to his wife Isis. But shortly after Osiris left, his brother Seth came to the palace. Seth is a famous evil god. He was very dissatisfied with his brother's outstanding achievements, so he incited rebellion and provoked hostility at home. But the goddess Isis, after all, has a high position in Biesert, and she soon foiled his plot. So Seth, with seventy-two followers, began to plot to persecute Osiris. These 72 followers are all assistants of Ethiopia's scheming queen.
Osiris was killed several times before, but was resurrected by the magical goddess Isis. This time, he came up with a plan. When he came back from abroad by Osiris, he invited his brother to his residence. He wants to hold a grand welcome banquet for Osiris. Isis didn't want her husband to attend, but Osiris saw that his brother was sincere and insisted on going. Shortly after the banquet began, Seth took out a beautiful box and said that if anyone happened to lie in it, he would give it to him. The people at the party were very happy about it. They all wanted this beautiful box, so everyone lay down and tried it, but no one happened to lie down.
At this time, it was Osiris's turn to try. He is not interested in boxes, but everyone wants to know whether he is fit and impatient. Strangely, his body had just been put down in the box, and everyone cheered. But when he was about to come out, Seth quickly closed the lid. He nailed the box firmly and welded it with lead. Osiris soon died in it. Then Seth ordered his entourage to move the box. According to Seth's will, they quietly threw the box into the Nile. When Isis learned that her husband had been killed, she was deeply saddened. She vowed to find her husband's body. She cut off a bunch of hair, put on mourning clothes and started the journey of finding her husband. She passed many places, and no one saw the box. Finally, she came to the seaside and saw a child. The child told her that he saw the box drifting into the sea along the Nile. Taking advantage of Isis' opportunity to find a husband, Seth seized the throne. As soon as he came to power, the Egyptian people were oppressed, and his cruel rule made people's lives difficult.
Isis became a thorn in Seth's side, and he ordered no one to accept or protect her. So isis is in a more difficult situation. At this time, she got the help of seven magical scorpions, and Rashin sent the "guide" Anubis. Once, Isis came to a poor woman's house, saved her children and settled down. Isis soon gave birth to another son, Horus. When Seth found out, he tried every means to arrest them and let them have nowhere to hide. Later, Seth killed Horus, and Isis brought his beloved son back to life with the help of Drakula and the wise god Toth.
When Osiris's coffin drifted to Bibolos Beach in Syria, a sacred tree grew from there. The king there saw that the tree was growing fast, thick and big, so he cut it down to make a pillar of the palace. Isis was inspired by God, found her husband and went to Syria. When the queen saw that Isis was smart and cute, she was made a nanny. Isis liked the child very much and wanted him to live forever, so he ordered him to burn it in the fire. The queen was very angry when she saw it. Isis must bring the child back to life, but he cannot live forever. Later, Isis restored the goddess and asked the king to give her a sacred pillar. The king agreed to her request.
So she dug out the box from the post, wrapped it in cloth and painted it with "myrrh". Later, the king ordered his men to build a temple for isis and put this sacred pillar in it. For many years, people in Bibolos have been worshipping in this temple. When Isis was about to leave Syria, the king gave her his son, and they went on their way together. Halfway through, Isis wanted to see her dead husband again, so she opened the box and kissed her cold husband warmly. Prince Biebers tried to peek at the contents of the box and was stabbed to death by the light of Isis. When Isis hid the box in the jungle to find the son who left it to Bhutto, Seth found the box, cut Osiris's body into fourteen pieces and threw it into the Nile. Isis had a difficult journey to find her husband's body. Finally, she found all the bodies and built a grave where they were found. Later, people built temples on graves. For many years, people worshipped Osiris and Isis in these temples.
It is also said in the myth that Horus, the son of Osiris and Isis, avenged his father when he grew up, and had many life-and-death battles with Seth, but they were never tied. After that, the gods made a judgment and made Horus king of Egypt. Some God said that God divided Seth and Horus to rule Egypt. According to another myth, when Osiris's body was discovered by Isis, she was very sad and cried loudly. This cry was heard by Rashin, so he sent Anubis down to pick up Osis' body and wrapped it in cloth. This is the origin of mummies. Then Isis used his magic to make Osiris alive again, and the gods took him to heaven and made him king of Hades.
This myth vividly shows the story of Osiris, one of the Egyptian gods, and his wife Isis. Through the constant struggle between the good represented by Osiris and the evil represented by Seth, it is shown that good will prevail over evil in the end, and no one can destroy the truth. Isis' fearless spirit of courtship embodies the tenacious and persistent character of ancient Egyptians. The myth of ancient Egypt is one of the earliest myths in ancient times. Great influence and wide spread. Ancient Babylonian, Hebrew, Greek and Roman myths all have the shadow of Egyptian mythology. It is said that Dionysus was born in Greece after Osiris was introduced into Greece. In ancient Rome, Isis was widely worshipped by the Romans and even regarded as the ruler of the earth and the patron saint of women. Until today. Egyptian mythology is still very attractive and has become an important material for future generations to understand Egyptian history, culture, religion and social customs.
