Psalm 150:1

"Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power."

Amanda Cerny

SOBEK, the crocodile--Crocodilus niloctico--was a creature of DUAL personality to the ancient Egyptian. Because of its dangerousness was viewed as a symbol of cosmic disorder (Seth). But on the other hand, it was true that the crocodile emerged from the waters like the sun god himself.

"Sobek was also associated with pharaonic power, fertility, and military prowess, but served additionally as a protective deity with apotropaic qualities, invoked especially for protection against the dangers presented by the Nile. Sobek has been famed for having been revered by the first female Pharaoh by the Nebty name Sat-Sekhem-Nebet-Tawy Sobekneferu, present both in the female Pharaoh's nomen, Sobekneferu (sbk-nfrw - Beauty of Sobek), and her praenomen Kasobekre (The Ka of Sobek-Ra)."
