  1. A very important job was a Scribe.It was a very important job because they were the only ones that knew the alphabet. When the government officials needed information, the Scribes would write it down. The merchants and the traders paid the Scribes to write as well.

  2. The Scribes were the copists of Scripture and teachers of law.The Scribes were from the period of Ezra.The name is derived from sepher,or 'book' and means scripturalist,those who explained and copied the law.Their functions were to copy,read amend,explain and protect the law.The scribes kept records of work done and goods paid,of prices and cost,of profit and loss:he counted the cattle as they moved to the slaughter,or corn as it was measured out on sale.He drew up contracts and wills,and prepared his master's income tax

  6. Scribe were people in ancient Egypt [ usually men] who learned to write. Although experts believe that most scibes were men, there is evidence of some female doctors. The women would have been trained as scribes so that they could read medical text.

  12. In Egypt the most important job was the scribe who wrote messages for pharaohs and government officials.If you wanted to be a scribe you had to stay a long time in school because hieroglyphs were difficult to learn.
