Ideological and religious life in Egypt, Greek Romanian

The population of Egypt in the Greco-Roman Mveja make up of different nationalities and different elements, such as Jews, Syrians, Phoenicians and Libyans and others to the Egyptians

As a result, a mixture of faiths and religions, Egyptian, Greek, Asian, Romanian and finally Christianity

At least I have to follow these religions of the Romans in the tolerant policy to practice their religion as long as it is not exposed with their loyalty to the state has not been tough with the Jews and Christians only when they resisted the Romanian Authority.

I respect the Greeks and Romans Egyptian religion and freedom of the Egyptians in the holding of their temples and build and repair what was destroyed them. Also, we find that the Ptolemies walked on what was followed by kings and pharaohs took the same pharaonic titles and painted their pictures in the same temples, lending legitimacy to the authority of the emperor in the eyes of the Egyptians. Well as the development of the Ptolemaic kings and Roman clergy under their control for their influence to limit the powers and intensified here in the era of the Romans did not allow for the priests only growing agricultural areas adequate to provide the needs of the temples only then put the temple under the supervision of the central authority in order to reduce the activity of the priests, for inciting the Egyptians against the Greeks or Romans

Work to earn the Greeks as the Greeks won the Egyptian religion Balchbh deification of Greek kings automation official priests have their names and dates of documents and confessed to an official religion in Greek religion and allowed the establishment of religious rituals and ceremonies and the establishment of temples and their gods likened to the Egyptian gods and Egyptian gods to draw closer to the big

Also respect the Roman freedom of the Egyptians in the belief and the care of the temples and drawing emperors themselves Pharaohs and imitate them at the same time, which was mixed with the tenets of Egyptian beliefs and Greek, we find that Isis was worshiped and spread her worship in the world, along with other gods and tied between the Apis bull and the Gods Serapis and used the Emperors principle of automation of the Kings of the establishment cult for them to help them control of the peoples of the Empire

 When Christianity began in Egypt, the late first century the Romans began to Birth in fear of the status of the emperor did not participate in Christian worship formal state. As the Christian religion rejects the old religions as well as someone holy emperor, the Movement Against Voattabrt must Astsalha. Began the era of persecution of Christianity and Christians since 64 m. Was promulgated is not to convert to Christianity and was the most violent persecution in the era of Diocletian until it was recognized as an official religion in 282 AD.
