Yeshua's teachings about the Great Pyramids https://sites.google.com/site/causeofgod/home/jensen-writings/over-the-wall-part-1-2/otw1-11
from Druze Statement of Beliefs late 19th century:
Q. What are the buildings in Egypt called Pyramids, vested with knowledge?
A. They are the Pyramids which our Lord erected through the wisdom of his will.
Q. What is the wisdom in it?
A. It is for the purpose of arguments and the covenant, which our Lord received from the learned (?),
so that he described them there and is preserving them till the day of his second coming.

the "foot" as basic architectural measurement for Great Pyramid at Giza (Cheops), http://www.world-mysteries.com/gw_jotu.htm
John Taylor in his work The great pyramid; why was it built: & who built it? (1859) regarded the inch used to build the Great Pyramid (see pyramid inch) to be 1/25 of the "sacred cubit" whose existence had earlier been postulated by Isaac Newton. Taylor was also the first to claim the pyramid was divinely inspired, contained a revelation and was built not by the Egyptians, but instead the Hebrews pointing to Biblical passages (Is. 19: 19-20; Job 38: 5-7) to support his theories.[10] For this reason Taylor is often credited as being the "founder of pyramidology". Martin Gardner noted:
“
[...] it was not until 1859 that Pyramidology was born. This was the year that John Taylor, an eccentric partner in a London publishing firm, issued his The Great Pyramid: Why was it Built? And Who Built it? [...] Taylor never visited the Pyramid, but the more he studied its structure, the more he became convinced that its architect was not an Egyptian, but an Israelite acting under divine orders. Perhaps it was Noah himself."[1]

1859 - first pyramidist, john Taylor
1877 - Joseph Seiss was a Lutheran minister who was a proponent of pyramidology. He wroteA Miracle in Stone: or, The Great Pyramid of Egypt in 1877. His work was popular with contemporary evangelical Christians.[14]
1881 - George Williams "prophet Cainan" writes about pyramids being Israelite in origin.
1907 - A Mr. Woodcock wrote `Abdu'l-Baha as to whether the pyramids and prophecy pointed to the union of Christianity with Islam, reply answered by a subordinate in the affirmative, it is not known if Mr. Woodcock was writing his question in response to his own studies or Baha'i teachings about the Pyramids.

1908 - Mason Remey crawls through the passages of the Great Pyramid on his way to visit with `Abdu'l-Baha in Palestine. 7 notebooks: "Reminiscences of His Childhood 1874-1884" in 4 volumes, 1943, http://findingaids.princeton.edu/getEad?eadid=C0524&kw=
1913 - `Abdu'l-Baha gives a talk on the pyramids while visiting Baha'is in Egypt. pg 140, http://bahai-library.com/sohrab_abdulbaha_egypt
1920 - `Abdu'l-Baha speaks of the Pyramids as symbolic of the "New Jerusalem":
Abdu'l-Baha explains that the new Jerusalem is a pyramid because it is a natural, enduring shape, etc.. The Two Reapers are the Bab and Baha'u'llah. In one sense, 666 refers to Napoleon. Baha'u'llah is the Prince of Peace--(From a pilgrim's note. The answers were purportedly given by 'Abdu'l-Baha in response to questions by Mr. E. T. Hall of Manchester, England on February 28, 1920 and translated by Dr. Lotfu'llah Hakim of April 3, 1920.

1921 - Ruth White apparently learns Great Pyramid Prophecy "Baha'i Leads Out of the Labyrinth" [could be possible that she learned this from `Abdu'l-Baha but credited it to unknown "pyramidists" she encountered in Cairo. It seems very strange that a group of pyramidists would not be Baha'i but teach her how the pyramids were all about the Baha'i revelation as prophecy, she went to Egypt after meeting with `Abdu'l-Baha in Palestine]
1964 (exact date unknown) Mason Remey gives Dr. Leland Jensen a bible with references to great pyramid circled. (Field Notes, Washington Gathering, 2011)
