Sample Book Insights:
#1 The Egyptian prayer against the night-demon is a example of how people have been afraid of the dark and of what may come out of the dark. The Scottish prayer against ghosties and ghoulies was a charm designed to protect children.
#2 The Egyptian goddesses Isis, Nephthys, and Meskhenet were the wives and sisters of Osiris. They were the ones who delivered Reddjetet’s three children, who would eventually rule the land of Egypt.
#3 The Egyptians, who preserved many details of the activities of life and death, left little information about the pre-birth process itself. The seemingly rich documentation is illusory; it is only rich by comparison with other pre-Greek societies.
#4 The Egyptians were a literate culture, but they were not self-analytical, and writing was not a universal skill. They were busy people who preserved in writing only the matters they needed to know, not all the matters that might be of interest to foreign peoples in some unimaginable future.
