Book of the Dead

This document is basically about proving ones pureness in the afterlife. A line that I found compelling is “I have not filched the offerings in the temples. I have not purloined cakes of the gods.” This shows us how desperate for food some of the people where that they were willing to steal the offerings people had put out for the gods. In general I find this document very interesting because it names all the bad things one could have done in their lives but did not do. I like how it ends saying “I am pure. I am pure. I am pure. I am pure.”
