Aviv Marie, it's Father David Nix from here in the pyramids of Egypt.

I was not going to make a video here because it's very touristy.

And I'm also sorry I'm not in the habit, very hot here.

Quite a bit of noise too.

This is an enormous pyramid. It goes all the way up there.

And then there's another one behind me.

You're probably going to hear some horses clapping behind me, too.

I don't know if that's normative for here or just a tourist trap thing. I texted two friends who

were evangelical converts to Catholicism as I showed up here. Who do you think built the pyramids?

And they both said slaves. One of them even added people of God. And as I look at

these enormous stones that were put here, it's not just the shape, it's not just the size of the

pyramids, obviously, it's also the size of each one of these stones. How in the world did this happen?

So I haven't studied a lot of this. I probably should have studied before I came here.

But if two of my friends who have studied quite a bit, here's our horses right there.

Said that they think it's the slaves. That makes sense to me.

So I started thinking of our Lord Jesus Christ, of course.

And one of St. Paul's major theologies is how Christ was a slave,

how he came and died and he died a slave's death. And as I'm looking at these pyramids, I don't have

a lot of theological insights except just the connection between the Old Testament and the notion

that the Son of God is a slave, not the notion, the notion that the Son of God is a slave.

Not the notion, the reality that the Son of God became a slave.

And as you see pyramids like this, this ties together the Old Testament and the New Testament quite a bit.
