The Rubbing
*He laughed again. The solution of the stone was so simple—so much simpler than he had made it. The hieroglyphic message he found in the stone last night was still evident to him, but it was the secondary message. It was a message to literate Egyptians, to the priests and royalty. The reading of the obvious hieroglyphics on the stone was for the simple and uneducated. It was an architectural chart. In the tomb below, under the diagram of the temple, Paul could decipher the line of picture glyphs from memory: the deities of Egypt are great, but the light and darkness live forever, you will find them here! *That was the answer and the meaning of this place. That was what the evidence pointed to. The tomb was not intended to be hidden—it was meant to be found and opened. The deities inside were meant to be released. That was the purpose in the structure, and that was its only purpose. Nothing was supposed to be hidden. Nothing was supposed to be covered.
