The Egyptian book of the dead

Description

Follows THE EGYPTIAN BOOK OF THE DEAD from creation around 1800 BC near the site of the Egyptian city of Thebes, to rediscovery (and theft) in 1887 AD. Biblical scholars agree that portions of the Old Testament are direct descendants of the Egyptian text, and some archaeologists argue that Moses must have read and carried a copy of it with him when he fled Egypt. Now, a new generation is reexamining the ancient text for wisdom that can still affect our inner lives! Learn what they discovered.
