Sophia Yah-El

Cairo Interlude Sophia Yah-El

Sophia, an Egyptologist, meets Iliana, a gutsy, street-smart archaeologist from New York, and they explore the famous sites around Egypt. Together they tweeze out snippets of truth from the Bible which is factually highly obtuse. By chance, they meet a sheik at a tea lunch in a fancy hotel in Cairo. He approaches them with an immodest proposal. He is in possession of a rare copper scroll which indicates the site where the Essenes hid the sacred treasures from the Holy Temple before the Roman Legion sacked Jerusalem. These codices could potentially turn monotheism on its head. But he needs their archaeological expertise to find and excavate site without first getting permission from the Israeli Antiquities Authority. Sophia and Iliana are intrigued by the possibility of finding a treasure more important than King Tut's tomb. At first reluctant, they throw caution to the wind and grab at this opportunity of a lifetime. They sail up the Nile on Saladin's yacht to the Gaza Strip where his Bedouin cousins are waiting with a stolen Israeli Army jeep. They drive to the Dead Sea and explore caves high on a bluff. A hidden crypt contains gold bars, manuscripts, and Torah scrolls that haven't seen the light of day for 2000 years. As they are descending the perilous trail to regroup for the next day, Russian black marketeers spot them and start firing their rifles. Iliana has the ethos of a professional assassin and goes after the Russian thugs by herself. They overpower her, but using her sexual wiles she is able to kill them one by one. What the girls discover in the cave is more explosive than an atomic bomb. Getting these scrolls and codices out on the internet is essential to exposing the chicanery in God's word, redacted and altered over the centuries by many scribes. You'll be checking your pulse every five minutes as this clandestine adventure unfolds and you'll learn the bold archaeological truths that will have an immense impact the Judaism and Christianity.
