Chapter 2 Sources

I thought all these documents were very interesting, but the most interesting document were the laws. The laws seemed to harsh, most of the laws if you did something then you would be killed. For example "If any one is commiting robbery and is caught, then he shall be put to death. " I really think this laws were to harsh on there punishments. With this laws it seemed that it did not matter if you were poor or rich and you committed one crime you would deserve the punishment. I think that was good that rich people had the same punishments as a poor person. Another document that I thought was very interesting was the Book of the Dead because it showed that people really wanted to become immortal and have eternal life. In this document someone is entering the hall of the goodness of Truth to ask for eternal life. This person is telling the Lord of Truth that he has been good and has not done anything wrong. And because he has not done anything wrong he wishes to be granted eternal life.
