How would we know how much room was inside if it weren't for robbers and modern archaeology? Is there some ancient record (apart from Joseph's slavery in Egypt in the Old Testament)?
BTW, it is interesting that this story is getting such widespread coverage. There seems to be some tradition of storage I was unaware of.
I wish I knew how they hauled and raised those blocks. If there was a facing, I wonder what they looked like before it all came down or was taken down, if it is true.
Almost all of those questions have actual real answers. And not just speculation, but historical records of when the pyramids were built, for what purpose, what the limestone surfacing looked like, the golden top stones, etc.
The Bible clearly states that Joseph stored the harvest from the seven abundant years in storehouses in the cities near the fields they were grown.
There has been a tradition that he built giant storehouses, and some through history have believed that the pyramids were what he built, but that isn’t biblical, it isn’t supported by historical writings, and it isn’t supported by archeology.
The pyramids are made out of concrete.

Where are the pyramids mentioned in the Bible? I just searched through several different versions in the youversion app, and find no mention of the word.
