Pharaoh (Book of Abraham)
|
In the Book of Abraham in the Pearl of Great Price of Latter-day Saint theology, Pharaoh is the proper name of the first king of Egypt. He is the son of Egyptus, daughter of Ham, son of Noah. Pharaoh rules Egypt righteously during his entire reign. However, he does not have the fullness of the gospel, and Egypt gradually degenerates to idol worship after his death.
