About this book
Five chapters deal with the belief in God, Osiris as the god of the resurrection, the gods of the Egyptians, the judgment of the dead, and the resurrection and immortality. E. A. Wallis Budge, then Keeper of Egyptian and Assyrian antiquities at the British Museum, draws his account wholly from native religious writings. He notes that no systematic account of these beliefs has been found. The third edition of 1908 has eight illustrations, among them scenes of the judgment hall and the Elysian Fields.
