P1048:5, 95:5.11
But the priests could not fully overcome the monotheistic wave. Increasingly
they were compelled to combine and hyphenate their gods; more and more the family
of gods contracted. Ikhnaton had associated the flaming
disc of the heavens with the creator God, and this idea continued to
flame up in the hearts of men, even of the priests, long after the young reformer
had passed on. Never did the concept of monotheism die out of the hearts of
men in Egypt and in the world. It persisted even to the arrival of the Creator
Son of that same divine Father, the one God whom Ikhnaton had so zealously proclaimed
for the worship of all Egypt.
