The differentiation of the approach in this volume lies in its theological content, as Plutarch, referencing the dominant pair of gods of Egypt, namely Isis and Osiris, unveils from the abundant basket of his inexhaustible knowledge not only his erudition in religious matters but simultaneously boldly articulates the view that, at least linguistically and etymologically, the names of these gods are Greek!
Therefore, we will swim through deep waters along with Plutarch in the course of the interpretative approach to the work and "we will stir the stagnant waters" in contrast to the established (then and now?) prevailing religious, historical, and linguistic beliefs and order.
