The Egyptian Book of the dead

Note 5 — Chapter CXXVIII

P. Le Page (Peter Le Page) Renouf translation

Coming forth . Cf. ϣⲁⲓ, ἀνατέλλειν, ἀνατολὴ, and the meanings ἐξοδεία and ἑορτή, which, on the tablet of Canopus, correspond to the Egyptian . The first hour after sunrise was called ; so that “the beautiful Coming forth of thy Powers” may be a mere technical periphrasis for daybreak.
