Sage Ptah Hotep – The Sages of Ancient Egypt: 

He is the wise man who appeared with the Fifth Dynasty and he is the minister of the Pharaoh (Djed Ka Ra Isesi), and his teachings were placed in the papyrus (Bryce) which belongs to the Middle Kingdom, and his wisdom was studied until the age of the 18th Dynasty.

He put his wisdom in the papyrus as the 37 wisdoms that included the ways of humility, conversation, justice, truth, meekness, table, generosity, honesty, respect for duty, happiness, children’s rights, traditions, salvation, women, choosing a good wife, gossip, etc., and here are some of his tips:

The advice of the sage Ptah Hotep to his son:

“Do not go with your knowledge, and do not consider yourself a scientist, but make it a consultation with everyone, follow the advice of the ignorant, as we take the advice of the world, because the limits of the world are infinite, and there is no one who is perfect in his speeches, and wise words are rarer than the green stone, and you can find him nodding his head sitting on the mill. »

If you find a man who speaks, and he is older than you and the worst of wisdom, listen to him, and lower your back in front of him, or he will be angry unless he pronounces bad things, and then people will say of him: he of the ignorant – if you find a man equal to you arguing, and who provokes bad words, do not be silent, but show your wisdom. If you find a poor man (not equal to you) who speaks, you will not despise him because he is less than you, but leave him alone, and do not embarrass him to please your heart, and do not pour out your anger on him.

Texts such as the Sage Ptah Hotep:

  1. Who is the greatest man who is guided to the right and to the right path?
  2. Who does not respect the laws he will have the trouble of punishment
  3. The others do not survive the fire in the afterlife.
  4. The limits of justice are fixed and immutable.
  5. If a senior invites you to eat, accept what he offers you, don’t look at him or talk to him until he asks you because you don’t know what his drinker agrees with. He speaks when he asks you and he loves your words
  6. If your big cost needs, do it for him as he wishes.
  7. If you meet a high-ranking man, respect him and respect his ability to speak, so that those who are older than you do not oppose you are more powerful and experienced because he is ignorant of talking to different people at the same time.
  8. You won’t know too much about his work when you see him busy.
  9. Don’t betray your trust… to increase honor and build your home.
