Mormon Priesthood and Horus-Ra (Horus-Re)
Joseph’s interpretation is as follows:
3. Is made to represent God, sitting upon his throne, clothed with power and authority; with a crown of eternal light upon his head; representing also the grand Key-words of the Holy Priesthood, as revealed to Adam in the Garden of Eden, as also to Seth, Noah, Melchizedek, Abraham, and all to whom the Priesthood was revealed.
His three primary depictions were the morning sun as a scarab beetle, the noon day sun as the solar disk and evening sun as a 4 headed ram.
Joseph’s hypocephalus was missing this section. He obviously took liberty to insert what he thought may have been there originally.
The Eye of Horus was a representation of when Horus’ left eye was gouged out by his brother Set after the death of their father Osiris while fighting for his throne.
