Set is a enigmatic, archaic and enigmatic god of the ancient Egyptians. At the same time the murderer of Osiris and the contending defiler of Horus, he is also lord of the Ombos, god of the frontier and protector of the sun god Ra, battling with the chaos god Apophis at the bow of the Barque of Millions. Let's trace the history, development and eventual demonization of Seth. From his inauguration of death, his veneration by the family of Rameses, synthesis with Ba'al and Yahweh and his final role in the dark magic of the Greek Magical Papyri.

Same dude. Became homeless in July '22. I was in a rut before that but homelessness forced me out into the world. Convenience was killing me but now I feel like things are just inconvenient enough to give me real problems so I don't sweat the small stuff anymore. The only people who talk to me are kind (arseholes ignore me) and the generosity of strangers has been humbling. So my view of humanity has changed for the better. I understand the Beatitudes now on an experiential level. I'm financially poor but I've never felt spiritually richer. I would never have chosen this but it's been good for me. I've got my dog with me which has been a lifesaver. Otherwise not having social contact much would be harder. I'm also doing meta Bhavana (love meditation) to stay emotionally healthy. I'd recommend both.👍

In some of the more extreme American Evangelical communities, Cain is portrayed as Set. He wandered over to Egypt after killing Abel and set up shop as a king, even stealing the name of Seth. Heathen Egyptians then deified him. There’s even an illustrated book. I think it’s ironic that their mythological mashup is introducing the kind of chaos and disorder Set may have approved of.

There is a translated version of the Seth v Horus coom-off where Horus catches his uncles spooge in secret, sneaks into Seth's cabbage patch, then whips it onto his favourite tossed salad. Next time they're in court, Seth uses magic to make the goo talk to prove that it's in Horus' ass to embarrass him, but when the voice starts coming from Seth's own stomach, well, he just looks a bit silly. Then everyone laughs. 10/10, best mythology.

Seth seems to embody a similar trope to the Hercules or Enkidu. A figure on the periphery of civilization and order. They are all embowered by their wildness and uniquely suited for combating chaos. Frightening due to their otherness and lack of civility, but also alluring for the same reason. The madman you just hope is on your side. Edit: you could probably throw Loki in there too. People have always like edgy bad boys.

Finally, a proper episode on my favourite Egyptian deity! I've always seen him as one of the most misunderstood gods, and perhaps the pioneer of what has later become the Lion King trope, with hundreds of remakes of the same story: younger brother of king usurping the throne through treacherous means, and eventually losing it to his nephew, the rightful heir. However, the original myth is a lot richer and more complicated than that. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that in the earliest myths, there are some references of him actually being Anubis's father, as well as some mention of him erecting a huge pillar that allowed Osiris to ascend into heaven. The dichotomy between his fertility and toxic nature makes sense if we think about the desert as his dominia: there is also life in the desert, but it's a harsh environment than more often than not will unalive you. Truly fascinating. Thank you so much for this episode!

In one version Horus and Set are Thoth's joint dads but no Thoth centered text accepts that tradition. Set only loses half the Kingdom to Horus and sometimes that's upper or lower egypt (no agreement) rather than the desert.

If you love that, then you are going to love this: Did you know there are other versions of him in other African mythology? People who think the Egyptians were not black hate this, but you can only find Egyptian mythology in other African faiths. and if you look at the various versions of Set it is like he is going through a character arc: -First, there is the Egyptian aardvark Set, which dismembers Osiris -Pemba a jackal from Mande mythology probably even more evil that set. -Ogo the pale fox from Dogon mythology and just as evil -There is a usurper Jackal in Sere mythology who is more jealous than evil -Then the mostly benign Ntumbo aardvark from the epic of Mwindo from the Kongo. -There is also Chiwara the Aardvark gazelle from Bambara mythology. He is actually the offspring of the chaos snake and the trickster god, but he himself is benevolent and is an agricultural deity who can travel to the underworld similar to Osiris. -and Eshu the god of crossroads from Yoruba mythology. He is different as he isn't evil at all and actually repaired Obatalla when he was dismembered instead of doing the dismembering himself. He also seems to be devoid of the animal motif. Edit: I discovered that the arch thing on his head is a reference to the arch body of an Aardvark. The reason why those various animals are liked is because aardvarks create and abandons burrows in the earth, that Foxes, jackals and snakes live in afterwards. So If you follow each, creation myth and go from East Africa to West, it is like Set has a character arch until he becomes a totally upstanding guy.

@@CrumpitssGeneral Umm sure. the reason why aardvarks are associated with disorder in Africa is because they target termite mounds. Termite mounds are the basis of all African creation myths. It represents Order, because of the social complexity of the termite. aardvarks would break into them, have a meal and then leave. the hole they leave is then occupied by Snakes, foxes and jackals as I have said before. This is also why almost all African creation myths, the hidden god creates an earth mound first. The Egyptians called this Benben. In Dogon mythology, the termite mound is perceived as the clitoris of the earth goddess. in others, it is the penis of the earth god. when the sky and earth attempted to mate, the termite mound prevented proper coupling and created improper chaotic beings. In various other myths, this "issue with coupling" is a recurring motif. in Egyptian mythology Nu and Geb must be forced apart. this forced separation would break the earth mound. and this is the mythological origins of circumcision. now going from East Africa to West, The Ogdaod, the 4 pairs of primordial gods are repeated in mythology. in Egypt and the Dogon, the 4 pairs are these aquatic, or amphibious creatures. but by the time you get to the Sere, Mande, Bambara, Hausa and Yoruba, the amphibious beings become seeds. I honestly think this means that all these cultures date back to when the Sahara was green and there was one large collective African group that lived there and they were the first to begin agriculture. this is why Osiris, Obatalla and Chiwara are all agricultural deities. So this means Africans developed agriculture first and it spread into the fertile crescent and not the other way around. In Yoruba, the 4 pairs of seeds are found on Orunmilla's divination chain called an Opelle. sometimes one of those seeds is painted black or a different colour to represent the "Usurper" Chaos god. now a part of this divination is 16 rules or systems to it. 8 for the spiritual realm, and 8 for the earthly. This is the 4 pairs of the seeds again. This is important, in Egyptian mythology, we have both the ogdoad and the Ennead. Europeans miss that they are the same thing. for the ennead, you have to not count Atum. when you do that you have the 8 spiritual gods (ogdaod) and then their 8 earthly counterparts, Osiris, Isis, set etc. Now this is where Thoth comes in. Thoth is the one who laid the cosmic egg the Ogdoad was birthed from. Originally that is what the Sankofa symbol represented. Thoth is found in other African religions in the West. in Benin, you have the bird of prophecy. sometimes this bird is depicted with a seed. This is important because Benin has another god called Osun. Osun, like Thoth, is a god of medicine and knowledge, and he has a staff that has an Ibis on top, surrounded by two rings of birds. each ring has 8 ibis with seeds in their mouths. one ring represents the divine and the lower one represents the earthly. sometimes however these 16 are on the same level. But it is all a reference to the same Egyptian creation myths. If we stick to East Africa, Horus is a more "local" god and has versions only found in East African mythology: Egypt has Horus (Heru) Kush has Merul and the rest of the Cushties like the Oromo have their version called Hurr. The other Egyptian gods, are either unique to Egypt or have very slight connections to other African clans and family totems. like cats, jaguaras, hippos and crocodiles all mean the same thing across the board. it is just in Egypt they went overboard and deified these totems.

By his symbolic act of "ending" Osiris's life, he was instrumental to the rise of his brother as the god of the Afterlife, Death and Resurrection. The problem, as in many religions, is that most people don't see the metaphoric truths but are literal to the myths. Set represents the indomitable strength of chaos but in Ma'at's service as he is the one who fights the serpent Apep who represents the forces of Isfet (the opposite of Ma'at order).

​@gmccaughry, it's no wonder Lynch is a prominent proponent of Transcendental Meditation, which I still don't know the first thing about. But if it facilitates unconventional thinking, must be fantastic! 🧘‍♂️ 🌌

Listening on Sunday, June 16th at 10:45am. I have attempted to *listen* to this at bedtime while winding down from the day. I’ve fallen asleep each night before the end. For me, that’s actually a High Compliment; it means I am truly relaxed. I usually listen to a video on this channel, Let’s Talk Religion, History Time, Fall of Empires, etc., before moving onto The French Whisperer to sleep. (I live in a shared space, in an apartment complex. I need the “white noise” to drown that out). I Love Learning! 😊 Thank You for what you do here Dr Sledge. It’s Very Much Appreciated🙏🙏

Just popping in here to say as a pagan who's patron is Set, I was pleasantly surprised by the care, understanding, and general non-hatred towards him that is not seen in most modern media. Even "educational" texts and documentaries focus on the latter demonificiation of Set, and refuse to dig deeper into the more ancient practices of his worship. You have made my Sethian heart so happy, Dr Sledge. Please accept the heartfelt hug. 🫂💜💙

Doctor Sledge, Thank you for presenting the extensive collections of literature with a historical and philosophical lens as well as sharing it with us who typically don't have the time to put in the hours, upon hours, of readings and analysis. I'm not personally religious, but religious history is the most interesting topic of human history to me, second would be warfare; sometimes one in the same. I very much appreciate your efforts. If i can swing it, and I'll try to, I will definitely check out your Patreon. Keep up the greatly respectable and entertaining work

The Aardvark is nocturnal & comes out after the Sun sets. Also, the word "Set" has the most meanings in the dictionary, which could relate it to the idea of Babel. Although I do appreciate that's just in the English language.

Uniquely dressed salad. I was laying in bed to sleep as I often do during my KZfaq watching hours but this caused me to laugh heavily and have to come comment. I love your videos for that kind of humor along with of course just the general well research content, blending them them together is truly an art I feel you have mastered. And I feel the need to point out while I said laying in bed I do frequently rewatch in the next week at my computer where I can focus on it even more heavily to research and understand. Just usually first time I see new video notification is when I'm putting on my bedtime video list.
