Halbird,
This sounds more Christian to me than Egyptian. Consider that:
- "her" and "she" could refer to the body of Christian believers,
often referred to symbolically as the "bride of Christ".
- "time of work" and "faithful toil" could be the believers' Earthly
life and godly works.
- "the golden home" could refer to the city of new Jerusalem ("and the
city was pure gold") mentioned in the book of Revelation, chapter 21.
HTH,
Huntsman |
