- (Eskra 41:26-33) Now, when Looeamong beheld, that the other
two Triunes had taken new names falsely, and that they had gained
power thereby, he resolved to adopt for himself the names, Lord and
God.
27. Thoth, his chief warrior angel, fighting against Baal, had said:
Most Holy Triune, I must give mortals a name to fight for. The term,
Holy Ghost, is not potent.
28. So, Looeamong falsely assumed to be God, the Lord of heaven and
earth.
29. He said to Thoth: Go tell mortals I am the same, who wrought
wonders for the Israelites. And, forsooth, the Israelites will fight
for me.
30. Thoth did this. And furthermore Looeamong inspired one, Ezra, to
gather all the records he could, to be proof of his labors for the
Israelites.
31. To accomplish this, Thoth employed seven hundred thousand angels,
to be with Ezra and the numerous scribes whom Ezra employed. And by
their inspiration were the books of the Ezra Bible written and
compiled, according to the commandments of Looeamong. And there were
thus collected seventy-two books, and they were put on file in the
king's library in Jerusalem, after the manner in which the ancients
preserved important records of events, and these books were named by
Ezra, The Holy Library (Holy Bible), of which number fifty-four remain
to this day.
32. But, of all these, not one book was inspired of Jehovih, or His
Son, God of heaven and earth. Nevertheless, there are many things
within them, that were of Jehovih and His angels. Howbeit, though they
were put on record by men, and interpreted by men.
33. Looeamong, in these things sinneth not against Jehovih, for he did
not cause his own name, Looeamong, to be made worshipful.

(Book of the Arc of Bon 20:17-18) The scribes and
recorders assembled in Kaona and appointed Feh-ya (An Eguptian) to
write the departure of the Israelites out of Egupt. And Feh-ya wrote
the account and called it The Exodus of the Hebrews, and it was
recorded in the king's House of Records. And copies of it were sent to
the large cities, and there recorded also, for such was the law of
Egupt. Feh-ya's record was afterward accepted by Ezra, and is that
which is known to this day as the First Book of Exodus.
18. The Book of Genesis, as it stood in the Eguptian records, was
written by Akaboth and Dueram and Hazed, and was the substance from
which Ezra copied it through his scribes, even as it is to this day.
The inspiration of Genesis was from the God, Osiris, the false, and
his emissaries, chief of whom were Yotabba and Egupt, who were angel
servants to Osiris. And so far as the records now stand the spirit of
both books was the Eguptian version of the whole subject.

(Book of the Arc of Bon 20:19-21) Touching genealogies, in which men
seemed to have lived to so great an age, this, then, is the explanation
thereof:
20. Thothma had said to his recorders: In searching for the truth of
legends, give ye the latitude thereof. For one legend will say, such a
man lived seven hundred years ago, another legend will say he lived ten
hundred and fifty years ago. The latitude between them is, therefore,
three hundred and fifty years, which shall be the time of that man's
life.
And in this way latitude became confounded with fact, and with no intent
to deceive.
21. And behold, it came to pass that the records were worthless; and to
make matters worse the records were so voluminous, being more than six
thousand books, that the scribes of Ezra could make neither head nor
tail of them. Nevertheless, they were all written, in the first place
not by the Israelites, but by their enemies; wherein the testimony of
the miracles is none the weaker.

(Book of Saphah - The Basis of the Ezra Bible 47) The Faithists proper
were a small minority, and scattered in many lands. The rest, who were
called Jews, lived under written laws and ceremonies, which were
compiled and established by Ezra, in Jerusalem, which combination of
books was called the Bible, and was completed in the year 2344 B.K.
(Book of Saphah - The Basis of the Ezra Bible 57-59) Looeamong,
the false God, now changed his name and falsely called himself Christ,
which is the Ahamic word for knowledge. And he raised up tribes of
mortal warriors, who called themselves Christians, who are warriors to
this day.
58. The doctrine of these warriors was, that knowledge, which implieth
general education, was the best preventative against crime and misery.
Neither understood any man in those days that the word Christ had any
reference to a man or person. Now, from the time of Moses to Ezra, there
was an interval of four hundred years, in which the Jews had no written
record.
59. The age of the Ezra Bible is not, therefore, from the time of Moses,
but from the time of Ezra, 2344 years B.K.
