A Translation from the Joseph Smith Papyri

[Daniel Peterson]

I'm very happy to report that I now have, in my possession, not only Brian M. Hauglid's previously announced volume, A Textual History of the Book of Abraham: Manuscripts and Editions, but Michael D. Rhodes's Books of the Dead Belonging to Tshemmin and Nefernirnub; A Translation and Commentary.

Like the new volume from Dr. Hauglid, the new Rhodes volume is part of the Maxwell Institute's series "Studies in the Book of Abraham," which is also distributed through the University of Chicago Press. (They are, respectively, volumes five and four in that series. Traditions about the Early Life of Abraham, The Hor Book of Breathings: A Translation and Commentary, and Astronomy, Papyrus, and Covenant were volumes one through three.)

Michael D. Rhodes's Books of the Dead Belonging to Tshemmin and Nefernirnub; A Translation and Commentary.

I'm pleased that Michael Rhodes has finally brought Joseph's translation work to completion. I'm looking forward to reading more about Princess Katumin.
