20- Part 1 - "SO MOSES WAS BORN", Joan Grant, a far memory book - THE OLD PALACE

This is the story of Moses, it is set in Egypt, in the time just before the birth of Moses. It is written by Nebunefer, Moses is going to be his nephew.
The seventh of Joan Grants book, she was born in England in 1907 and died 1989, her father was a man of such intellectual brilliance in the field of mathematics and engineering that he was appointed a fellow at Kings College whilst still in his 20ies.
Joan was largely home educated and she felt that as a child, she learned more at the after dinner conversations between her father and his fellow scientists then from her Governesses or traditional schooling.
Joan was a seer - she was able to remember much of her many lives and here she is describing her journey as Nebunefer who is going to be an uncle to Moses.
It starts with a dream he has, the same dream for 3 nights. Pharaoh already has 60 sons but it seems Moses is going to play a part in Nebunefers life. He believes that Moses is the true son of Horus. In chapter 2 the royal tomb is being described and how Nebunefer visits it for the first time, with Sensen who is now his wife .
In chapter 8, after Nebunefer had pretended to be Seti the father of Ramoses, Ramoses confides his deepest thoughts.
Pharaoh Seti is now dead and Ramoses is the new Pharaoh - he talks with the girl from the grain barge who he had met on his way home after meeting with Nebunefer and Sensen his wife. Neb and Sensen were happy at the Living Waters but the Lady Iri (the girl from the barge) is now also going to be hidden in the sanctuary . Sensen dies - wife of Nebunefer . Many years have gone by and Nebunifer has a visit from his older brother Karaden - the vizier who urges him to travel to the palace and speak to Ramoses, the Pharaoh, his younger brother. He was with Karaden and they discussed Merenptah, Ramoses favoured son who Karaden thought might become Pharaoh - Nebunefer thinks it is a bad idea (as he had the 3 consecutive visionary dreams many years ago, Karaden relies on Neb's knowing) Recounting the memories of Ramoses trip where he meets a girl without telling her who he is ..... ..
