This is not "Present Truth" - but is found on a website that has stumbled onto Present Truth without knowing all about what it means to them yet...

Who Built The Great Pyramid?
The identity of the architect is unknown, but three candidates come to the top of most lists:
1.
Eusibius quotes an Egyptian historian named Manetheo who attributes construction to the Hyksos or Shepherd Kings who came from Arabia, conquered Egypt without a battle, destroyed their pagan temples and converted Egypt to monotheism. They built the Great Pyramid and then left for Judea. Job, after whom a book of the Bible is named, might have been part of this group. A generation later the Egyptians reverted to paganism.
2.
Some say Enoch, making the Pyramid a pre-flood monument like the nearby Sphinx. If you measure a side from corner to corner in sacred cubits it equals 365.242, the number of days in our year and Enoch's age when he was raptured. (Because of their concave nature there are three ways to measure a side. One way equals the solar year, as above. The second way equals the sidereal year, slightly longer at 365.256, and the third equals the anomalistic year of 365.259 days. The last two are used mostly in astronomy. If that isn't astonishing enough for you, keep in mind that none of these measurements would apply until 1300 years later when the length of the Earth's orbit increased by 5.25 days.)
3.
Most popular is Shem, son of Noah. Shem outlived 8 of the first 9 generations following the Great Flood, and even outlived Abraham. Some believe Shem was the priest called Melchizedek in Genesis 14. Read From Adam To Abraham for more information.
