Περὶ Ἴσιδος και Ὀσίριδος

Περὶ Ἴσιδος και Ὀσίριδος Plutarch
9 The kings were appointed from the priests or from the military class, since the military class had eminence and honour because of valour, and the priests because of wisdom. But he who was appointed from the military class was at once made one of the priests and a participant in their philosophy, which, for the most part, is veiled in myths and in words containing dim reflexions and adumbrations of the truth, as they themselves intimate beyond question by appropriately placing sphinxes Cf. Clement of Alexandria, Stromateis, v. 5. 31, chap. 5 (p. 664 Potter). before their shrines to indicate that their religious teaching has in it an enigmatical sort of wisdom. In Saïs the statue of Athena, whom they believe to be Isis, bore the inscription: I am all that has been, and is, and shall be, and my robe no mortal has yet uncovered.
