About This Tag
In the ancient Near East the sun was often revered as a manifestation or symbol of divine power, and associated with kingship and cosmic order. In Mesopotamia and Egypt, deities like Shamash and Ra played central roles as sun gods who oversaw law and upheld moral order. The Hebrew Bible uses much of this same solar language in its own theology.
