Asherah and the God of the Early Israelites
Relatively recently, startling archaeological discoveries in modern Israel have strengthened the arguments that Asherah was the Israelite god's consort (Hadley 2000: 86-102). One dig was in the heartland of Judah, the other in the northern Sinai. Several blessing inscriptions from the sites contain a controversial phrase possibly to be translated as "Yahweh and his Asherah." Even more exciting are drawings that accompany the inscriptions, especially those from the Sinai site (Toorn 1998:88-89).
The Sinai sketches appear on several pieces of pottery from two large jars found in a strange structure in the northern Sinai (Hadley 2000: 111, 119). One of the accompanying inscriptions reads: "I bless you by Yahweh of Samaria and his [/its] Asherah," while the two others use the formula: "I bless you by Yahweh of Teman (the South) and his [/its] Asherah" (Toorn 1998:89). Interpretation of the phrase "by his [/its] Asherah" has led to much scholarly disagreement.(4) Some translators argue that the pronoun "its/his" should be translated "its" and read as referring, respectively, to Samaria and Teman. Thus, the blessings would be appealing both to the Israelite god and to famous "cultic installations," the "asherahs" of Samaria and Teman (Binger 1997:108). Others translators translate the pronoun as "his," understanding it to be referring to the Israelite god, and so render the phrase as either "Yahweh and his asherah [cult object]" (Hadley 2000:124; Olyan 1988:33) or "Yahweh and his Asherah [goddess]" (Toorn 1998:90; Binger 1997:108; Patai 1990:53).

Il Fiore di Luce - Albero della Vita
in English: "lily flower",
in Hebrew: shoshan, שושן, "פלור דה ליס".
(also spelled fleur-de-lys; an archaic spelling is fleur-de-luce)
The Ancient Egyptian hieroglyph for "Tree of Life" ("I am the plant which comes from Nu/Osiris") was three lotus lilies. The trunk of the tree represented the World Pillar, the center of the universe.
The "Fleur-de-lis" traces its origin back to this hieroglyph for "plant" meaning "Tree of Life": three stems curving to the left and on top of each stem is the Lotus flower which was used in Ancient Egypt to represent Life and Resurrection.
Hapi, il dio del Nilo

The Ancient Egyptian symbol for "plant" meaning "Tree of Life" was three sacred lotus lilies. They have tree stems curving to the left as though blown into Life by the breath of Hu, the Celestial Sphinx. On top of each stem is the Lotus flower which was used in Ancient Egypt to represent Life and Resurrection.

Il dio androgino Hapi CITAZIONE
Hapi è rappresentato in sembianze umane mentre porta doni, e ha sul capo piante acquatiche. La sua prosperità è rappresentata da un grosso ventre e da seni cascanti. Benché non avesse un tempio o un santuario a lui dedicati, incuteva grande rispetto per la rigogliosa fertilità che portava alla terra. Hapi era una divinità benigna che manifestava la propria benevolenza al popolo attraverso il pane quotidiano di cui esso poteva nutrirsi. Benché fosse una divinità maschile, la sua natura era abbastanza materna.
Faceva parte di quelle divinità che, seppur prevalentemente maschili, venivano ritratte in modo androgino. Era rappresentato con seni da nutrice, e forse incarnava alcune qualità materne innate in ciascuno di noi. Il Nilo doveva insomma apparire come un benefattore che dava nutrimento agli Egiziani e sul quale essi facevano affidamento per la loro sopravvivenza. Esso era la fonte della vita e una costante riserva di cibo e di materiale grezzo.
