Note 18 — THE INSTRUCTION OF PTAH-HOTEP
Battiscombe G. (Battiscombe George) Gunn translation
It has been thought by many Egyptologists that 'the God' mentioned in this and other texts is a nameless monotheistic abstraction transcending all named gods. Although this theory has the support of many great names, I venture to say that the evidence for such an important doctrine is in the highest degree unsatisfactory.
