The god of the land

 LISTEN TO EGYPTIAN MUSIC WHILE READING
The god Geb is one of the oldest gods of the ancient Egyptians, who was called as a creator god, was the beginning of life because he represents the earth from which humans have created and where they lived when the gods are up to heaven to live there according to Egyptian mythology.
Geb is represented in the tombs and temples as a dark green man crowned with a goose in the head. Geb was the heir to the throne of his father Shu and later  left this responsibility of the authority of the land to Osiris and next to Horus  who was the last god on earth and finally the pharaohs took care of everything on earth as heirs of Horus and so every Pharaoh also called Horus
Geb is the son of Shu and Tefnut, his wife is the sky goddess Nut, with whom he had four children are: Osiris, Seth, Isis and Nephthys. Geb is the caretaker of the weighing of the heart of the deceased in the final judgment and keeps the bad spirits as prisoners that were not fair. According to the texts of the Book of the Dead Geb is the guardian of the gates to another world, and was a god very important and played many roles in the religion of the ancient Egyptians
