The Egyptian Book of the dead

Note 1 — Chapter CLXXIX

P. Le Page (Peter Le Page) Renouf translation

The explanation of this curious expression is given by the words of Nu “I died yesterday, but I come to-day.” yesterday is the past, is death; whereas this day, the present day, is life. Leaving what has been, and coming to what is, is only a figure meaning resurrection after death.
