The Message of the Joseph Smith Papyri: An Egyptian Endowment

Nibley, Hugh

Edité par Deseret Book Company, Salt Lake City, 1976

305pp. Quarto [28.5 cm] Full tan cloth with the title in brown on the front board and backstrip. Good/ Near Fine. Jacket nicked at corners and extremities with a large chip at the upper left corner of the rear panel. Translation and discussion of Egyptian religion as it relates to the Book of Abraham, and papyri (from the Book of breathings) held to be the source of that book. This is the only book length commentary on the Joseph Smith Papyri, and this revised edition includes expanded text and numerous illustrations, Professor Nibley shows that the papyri are not the source of the Book of Abraham. Rather than focusing on what the papyri are not, as most commentators have done, Nibley masterfully explores what the papyri are and what they meant in ancient times. N° de réf. du vendeur 10387
