Egyptian Religion: Egyptian Ideas of the Future Life
Budge, E. A. Wallis
1988 10015067 The ancient Egyptians worshipped fish and monkeys, snakes and crocodiles. They had gods for every province, town and village and even for individual families. This book makes clear that the immense variety of Egyptian deities never excluded a firm belief in a single almighty Sun-god Ra. Soft Cover. Brand New. Out of Print. The ancient Egyptians, some say, worshipped fish and monkeys, snakes and crocodiles. They had gods for every province, town and village and even for individual families. RA "the One, self-begotten, and self-existent God." The author brings together hymns, extracts from the Book of the Dead to illuminate the exact role of Osiris, the god of the resurrection, as well as the nature of the other main gods and the judgment of the dead. Above all, he suggests, it is the idea of immortality that formed the pivot on which the religious and social life of the ancient Egyptian turned. 198 pages, Penguin Group (USA) Inc. 0140190171 / 9780140190175
