Cleopatra was the last Pharaoh that was effective of Egypt's Ptolemaic dynasty. Cleopatra killed herself in Alexandria when she was defeated and captured by Romans. Cleopatra aligned with Mark Antony against Gaius Julius Caesar. In tradition Cleo asked for an asp, for it was an Egyptian Icon. It bit her on the arm. Her death marked the end to the Ptolemaic kingdom and the start of the Roman era in eastern Mediterranean.

Long before Jesus was born the bible foretold of a coming Messiah or Christ that’s how the story began!When Jesus came to Earth he had a purpose, to restore immortality on Earth like back in the Garden of Eden, to do this mission he had to make big sacrifices. (That will be told at the end of the story.)When on Earth he was trailed by Satan (the one who tricked Adam and Eve) but with his fathers support he could reject all these trails.When the time came for Jesus to make him self-sacrifice he talked to the person beside him on the torture stake he said “you will be with me in the new world”. When he died Jehovah told the people attending the festival that Jesus was his son. Jesus was resurrected and returned to his heavenly position and continued there until his time.The lesson that we can get from this heart breaking story is that with the power to resurrect Jesus he can resurrect all dead ones from the tomb!!
