LET'S LIBERATE THE TEMPLE In Let's Liberate the Temple, Dr. Monderson seeks to enlighten his readership through, first and foremost, as the Table of Contents reads: Introduction; Who is Dr. Ben-Jochannan; What is His Trilogy; The Awesome Egyptian Temple I; The Awesome Egyptian Temple II; Construction and Layout of the Temple: Decoration of the Temple; Role and Symbolism of the King; The Temple as University and Clearing House; The Temple as Economic Engine and Moral Tutor of the Society; The Sanctuary; The King of Egypt I; The King of Egypt II; The Awesome Egyptian Temple III; Egyptian Architecture; Temple Orientation and Divine Worship; Consecration and Purity in Egyptian Temples; Purification and Purity in Ancient Egypt, and more. He also sheds some light on the Temple Ritual and significance of some locations, the Sanctuary, Hypostyle Hall, Sacred Lake, etc., work of temple helpers, and more within the structure. The "Old Master Teacher" Dr. Ben-Jochannan always emphasized to his students particularly, respect the temple, dress appropriately when entering therein and don't enter the Sanctuary. However, while he admonished visit Egypt, visit Karnak Temple's Hypostyle Hall "five or six times" before understanding what it signified, he most importantly emphasized, pay attention to the architecture, its features, its decoration, portrayal of the ritual on its walls, how is the Great Court decorated, how is the structure oriented, whether its dedicated to a god or goddess, viz., Karnak is dedicated to the Sun-God Amun or Amun-Ra; Philae is dedicated to Isis; Dendera is dedicated to Hathor; and Edfu is dedicated to Horus; Abydos to Osiris, and Kom Ombo to Sobek and the Elder Horus. Thus, the orientation of these temples is generally towards some heavenly body manifesting in the God or Goddess. During the New Kingdom when Amun-Ra (Amon-Ra, Amen-Ra), the Sun-God, ruled triumphantly, his temple at Karnak was oriented East to West following the path of the Sun. Naturally, the Mortuary Temples as Deir el-Bahari, Ramesseum, Medinet Habu, as "King's Temples," their "Mansions of Millions of Years" were dedicated to the respective monarchs, Hatshepsut, Rameses II and Rameses III and linked to the principal deity, Amon-Ra. Now, by "Liberating the Temple," the intent is to provide some guidance as to what to expect, what to see, what types of questions to ask of the Guide when visiting, how well to prepare for the important adventure that awaits the visitor and "Where to go from here!" Dr. Fred Monderson is a retired New York City Educator, Master of Ancient African History, Egyptologist, Master Researcher and Egypt Travel Guide. Taught by Dr. Ben-Jochannan, Dr. John H. Clarke and Dr. Leonard James, his mission is to search for truth and expose systematic distortion and include purposeful omission of ancient African history and culture as part of the effort in African historiographic reconstruction, and having recognized such, he seeks to speak and write to, Ancient Egypt was an African and Black Civilization. fredsegypt.com@fredsegypt.com sumonpublisher.com@sumonpublishers.com blackfolksbooks.com@blackfolksbooks.com blackegyptbooks.com@blackegyptbooks.com
