Download or read book The 42 Laws of Ma at written by LXV ÆGypt and published by LX Volition. This book was released on 2022-05-23 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 42 Laws of Ma'at are the ancient Egyptian laws you should comply with during your life to access the afterworld. The 42 Laws of Ma'at is not the original title of this text. Indeed, the Papyrus of Nebseni lists these "laws" under the name The Negative Confession (Budge, 1898). The Negative Confession is a section of The [Egyptian] Book of the Dead (Budge, 1898; Le Page Renouf et al., 1904), which describes a scene where the deceased would confess to the Assessors of Ma'at, the Egyptian goddess of Truth and Justice. Each one of these forty-two deities would receive a negative confession pronounced by the deceased, beginning with "I have not...", followed by a sin. After these confessions, Ma'at would weigh the heart of the deceased against an ostrich feather. If the heart of the deceased was heavier than the feather, it was devoured by the monster Ammit, preventing the deceased from accessing immortality. The soul was then believed to become restless forever. Indeed, the 42 laws of Ma'at are in fact confessions. However, for readability and contemporization purposes, this publication presents the confessions in the form of commandments. The aim here is to refer to your future behaviour instead of your past actions. Therefore, all the laws listed in this book begin with "I will not..." instead of "I have not". Note that the aim of this book is not to explain nor to "interpret" these commandments. Although the laws have been adapted to better reflect the contemporary context, the 42 Laws of Ma'at are provided "as is".

Did Christianity replace traditional African religion with the arrival of European missionaries in past centuries? Or did sub-Saharan African cultures persist in maintaining their religious worldviews even after accepting the salvific message of Christianity? In this compelling book, Laurenti Magesa argues that despite missionary Christiaity's refusal to acknowledge the worth of traditional African religious culture. the incarnational spirituality of those cultures remains vibrant and visible today, and has much to offer and teach other cultures, both Christian and not.

Download or read book Death and Salvation in Ancient Egypt written by Jan Assmann and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-14 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Human beings," the acclaimed Egyptologist Jan Assmann writes, "are the animals that have to live with the knowledge of their death, and culture is the world they create so they can live with that knowledge." In his new book, Assmann explores images of death and of death rites in ancient Egypt to provide startling new insights into the particular character of the civilization as a whole. Drawing on the unfamiliar genre of the death liturgy, he arrives at a remarkably comprehensive view of the religion of death in ancient Egypt. Assmann describes in detail nine different images of death: death as the body being torn apart, as social isolation, the notion of the court of the dead, the dead body, the mummy, the soul and ancestral spirit of the dead, death as separation and transition, as homecoming, and as secret. Death and Salvation in Ancient Egypt also includes a fascinating discussion of rites that reflect beliefs about death through language and ritual.

Download or read book The Code of Hammurabi written by Hammurabi and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-03 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Code of Hammurabi is a well-preserved Babylonian law code of ancient Mesopotamia, dating back to about 1754 BC. It is one of the oldest deciphered writings of significant length in the world. The sixth Babylonian king, Hammurabi, enacted the code, and partial copies exist on a man-sized stone stele and various clay tablets. The Code consists of 282 laws, with scaled punishments, adjusting "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" (lex talionis) as graded depending on social status, of slave versus free man. Nearly one-half of the Code deals with matters of contract, establishing, for example, the wages to be paid to an ox driver or a surgeon. Other provisions set the terms of a transaction, establishing the liability of a builder for a house that collapses, for example, or property that is damaged while left in the care of another. A third of the code addresses issues concerning household and family relationships such as inheritance, divorce, paternity, and sexual behavior. Only one provision appears to impose obligations on an official; this provision establishes that a judge who reaches an incorrect decision is to be fined and removed from the bench permanently. A few provisions address issues related to military service. Hammurabi ruled for nearly 42 years, c. 1792 to 1750 BC according to the Middle chronology. In the preface to the law, he states, "Anu and Bel called by name me, Hammurabi, the exalted prince, who feared Marduk, the patron god of Babylon (The Human Record, Andrea & Overfield 2005), to bring about the rule in the land." On the stone slab there are 44 columns and 28 paragraphs that contained 282 laws. The laws follow along the rules of 'an eye for an eye'.
