These Jews had a god & female queen of heaven soul mate, some laws against murder,stealing & not worshipping any other gods, amazing that we find exactly the same laws almost 3,000yrs earlier written down in Egypt and even much much more.
They had laws about ritual animal sacrificing, what an amzing uniqueness there, everyone else had rituals and were sacrificing animals to. Something to do with infant ritual foreskin surgery, look anywhere else, primitive tribes had these kinds of markings of themselves as well.
They might have had some unleavened bread recipies because thats what every other primitive people baked anyways, except those Jews in Elephantine Egypt were probably eating better.Its still interesting that here we find Jews actually living in Egypt that far back, fighting for the Pharoah, guess no surprise that part gets left out of the bible. Josephus never mentions it, would have been bad press one guesses?
