It sounds like what you are mentioning is a form of henotheism. It is actually fairly common after the period in which Akhenaten (Amenhotep III) attempted to overthrow the power of the priests of Amun.

It seems that after him, the concept of God existing and showing through all the other gods. It is actually a rather interesting development, as there are indications that they were evolving towards this goal, and Akhenaten pushed it forward.

I would like to thank Danni/Kebs both for shedding some light on this. I too think that sometimes the Egyptian deities are misunderstood and taken to lightly. They can be vicious as well as refreshing. I too have and Egyptian deity and I love the fact that so many people recognize how magnificent they can be. After Set tore Osiris limb from limb, what Isis went through to find the pieces of him to eventually put back together, is amazing to me. Cool post.
