Comments

  • ⸢⸮jr.w?⸣ n mw.t/Mw.t: The rendering of the second clause is uncertain; Seyfried tentatively suggests restoring tjt in the lacuna, although I offer jrw as an alternative that may work as a parallelism and given its repetition in the thematically related context of col. 15. The traces of mwt can be read both as the name of the goddess and as ‘(my) mother’. Thus the aspect of Hathor evoked here is both divine and maternal, and establishes a connection with the goddess Mut (Szpakowska, Kasia 2003. Behind closed eyes: dreams and nightmares in ancient Egypt. Swansea: Classical Press of Wales, 2003, 229–31). Seyfried (1995, 73) considers the possibility that the lost image of the goddess beneath Text 2, showed Mut rather than Hathor.

  • j:jri̯.t: Assmann (1978, 30, n. f) emends j:jri̯.t to the second tense j.jrj=j jj: ‘I have come in order to instruct you’. I suggest rendering as a participle, literally ‘one who does a coming’, as an extension of Hathor’s characterization.

  • ḥly: Assmann cites an example of ḥly used as a personal name in order to indicate that it was a term of endearment for the goddess, emphasizing the intimacy of Djehutyemheb’s relationship with her (1978, 32, n. t). I know of no other occurrence of this name.

(A future release of the TLA web app will also indicate the scope of authors’ comments or annotations, i.e., which parts of the sentence a comment/annotation refers to. For the development plan, see here.)
