[5] | Set then threw the chest (Ѻ), containing the body of Osiris into Nile, as shown above. (Ѻ) | A visual of Set chopping of the body of Osiris, as told in the Passion of Osiris, after he had found that Isis had recovered the "chest", which had grown into a tree, scattering the 14 pieces of Osiris (see: Orion) about the land. | A visual of Isis, gathering up the scattered pieces of the body of Osiris, in preparation to make a "mummy" of his body, so to resurrect him. According to legend, the phallus was eaten by a fish, and never found, therefore Isis cuts off her thumb to make a make-shift phallus for Osiris. |

[2] | Budge (1904): Osiris, naked, lying upon his bier, over the foot of which is the vulture goddess Uatchet, and over the head the uraeus goddess Nekhebet.

| Budge (1911): Horus opening the mouth and two eyes (see also: eye of Horus) of Osiris with a spear.

It is interesting to note that the frog-headed goddess Meget, who was a form of Hathor, was connected the Christians with the Christian resurrection; in proof of this may be cited the lamp described by Signore Lazone [Dizionario, pg. 853], wherein he tells us, is a figure of a frog, and the legend [Greek] or ‘I am the resurrection’.” | Palarczyk (c.2015): A relief in the Hathor Temple at Dendera shows Horus of Edfu, sitting on a throne and wearing the combined crowns of Upper and Lower Egypt. The relief is located on the (interior) eastern wall of the outer hypostyle hall of the temple and dates from the first century AD. [4] |

In religio-mythology, Death and Resurrection of Osiris, as can be contrasted with the Death and Resurrection of Jesus, the monotheistic rescript of the former, is a core story of Egyptian mythology, the most famous of them all, wherein Osiris is killed by his brother Set, for insult sleeping with Set's wife Nephthys, by accident (Osiris thinking Nephthys was his wife Isis, twin sister to Nephthys), who is then chopped into 14 pieces (see: Orion), then reassembled into a mummy by Isis, then resurrected (brought back to life) by the combined powers of Isis and Thoth, who stops time long enough for the revived Osiris to magically impregnate Isis, who then gives birth to Horus, who then avenges his father's death by killing Set, therein bring order back to the cosmos; the story was rewritten, monotheistically, in circa 200 to 800AD, into the sold-for-realism story of virgin birth and death and resurrection of Jesus.
