Why did Akhenaten's religious reforms face resistance?

Akhenaten's religious reforms faced resistance because they disrupted the traditional polytheistic worship that had been practiced for millennia. The reforms diminished the influence and power of priests associated with other deities, particularly Amun, leading to social and political friction.
