Hi all,
I’ve been reading the revised edition by Dr Ogden Goelet Jr, Dr Raymond O Faulkner, Carol. A R Andrews, J. Daniel Gunther, James Wasserman.
I think that the full colour images which accompany the text are very good quality. It’s great to be able to see the images which accompany the text.
I have seen different translations of the 42 declarations of innocence online, but I find I can relate to this translation of the Papyrus of Ani the most.
Following the translation of the Papyrus of Ani, it also contains a translation of the Theban Recension texts which don’t appear in the Papyrus of Ani. I haven’t read this part yet, but I’m glad it’s there for future reference.
There is also a commentary at the end, which I am part way through reading. I am finding this helpful so far. The Book of Going Forth by Day is not easy to understand, so a good commentary is needed.
I’d recommend this book.
