Thoth. Wikipedia: "It is also viewed that Thoth was the God of Scribe and not a messenger."
"He was considered the heart and tongue of Ra as well as the means by which Ra's will was translated into speech.[3] He has also been likened to the Logos of Plato[3] and the mind of God[4] (see The All).
He has further been involved in arbitration,[6] magic, writing, science,[7] and the judging of the dead.[8]"---Same
One thing about Thoth not mentioned--because it only "might" relate after we have encountered Against the Day is
that Thoth, Egyptian, in some versions leads DIRECTLY to Coptic religious beliefs. Which, we recall, is explored in Against the Day---distinguished, many say, as the WRITING down DIRECTLY of the doings of JC and the Apostles. No intermediary text.
