Criticism
Conclusion
We don't have all the material Joseph was working with, and until we do (which seems unlikely), we won't know why he interpreted the facsimiles as he did.
Resumo: No Livro de Abraão, Joseph incluiu três fac-símiles de ilustrações do papiro, juntamente com comentários sobre o que as imagens e suas partes individuais representados. Algumas das interpretações de Joseph são semelhantes aos de egiptologistas formados, mas a maior parte não o são. A série de críticas se relacionam com os três fac-símiles associados com o Livro de Abraham.It Note-se que a tradução de Joseph Smith dos fac-símiles não concorda com as fornecidas por egiptólogos, e que algumas partes faltantes dos fac-símiles foram incorretamente restaurados antes de serem publicados .
Response
Hugh Nibley notes the following,
[I]t is important to emphasize what many Egyptologists are insisting on today as never before, namely, the folly of giving just one interpretation and one only to any Egyptian representation. This is the pit into which Joseph Smith's critics have always fallen: "This cannot possibly represent 'A' because it represents 'B'!" "The value of an Egyptian presentation," Eberhard Otto reminds us, "depended on seeing the greatest possible number of meanings in the briefest possible formulation."3 Heretofore, critics of the Joseph Smith explanations have insisted on the least possible number of meanings, namely one, to every item, and as a result have not only disagreed widely among themselves, but also exposed their efforts to drastic future revision. The Egyptians "considered it a particular nicety that symbols should possess multiple significance," wrote Henri Frankfort, "that one single interpretation should not be the only possible one."4 [1]
