How do you pronounce the Egyptian God Ra's name Ray or Rah?

Answer 1

The correct way to pronounce the name of this Egyptian god is Ray, as in ray of the sun. This is the actual Egyptian God of the Dead. The messianic quality was attributed to Osiris which is another name for RA-(Ray). See, http://www.light1998.com/OSIRIS/OSIRIS.htm As added information it appears that the God of the Jews and Christians has a delightful sense of humor. He posed a question; [Matthew 22:31] And concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was said to you by God,

http://www.usccb.org/nab/bible/matthew/matthew22.htm [Matthew 22:32] 'I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'? He is not the God of the dead but of the living."

[Matthew 22:33] When the crowds heard this, they were astonished at his teaching. The humor of this is his choice of name for a nation. El is a general term for a god. So in the name of a nation he posed the question 'Is-RA-El' Israel? The reason why is because of the corrupt priest class known as the Pharisees whom Jesus accused of belonging to the religious group called 'The Builders' whose religion was Egyptian worship of the god called RA-(RAY). http://www.sacred-texts.com/mas/bui/index.htm [Matthew 21:42] Jesus said to them, "Did you never read in the scriptures: 'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; by the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes'?

[Matthew 21:43] Therefore, I say to you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people that will produce its fruit.

[Matthew 21:44] ( The one who falls on this stone will be dashed to pieces; and it will crush anyone on whom it falls.)"

[Matthew 21:45] When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they knew that he was speaking about them.
