Here's the one I couldn't get top post. Sorry for the delay but I didn't want to clutter the board with tests;



You're trying to make sense of a sentence which has only one word correct; "upward".

This word was solved by its close association with the concept of "upward". But you need to understand the meaning of a sentence for "upward" to make sense.

168a. shu, this thy son is this one here, Osiris, whom thou hast made to endure and to live.

"Upward" makes the water live.

208a. Thou ascend(est), thou openest thy way through the bones of shu;
208b. thou envelopest thyself in the embrace of thy mother Nut;

"Bones" support the physical body and "upward's" body is the water itself. It is thew column of water in the embrace of the sky.

275e. The hand of N. is in the hand of Re, Nut takes his arm;
275f. Shu lifts him up; shu lifts him up.

"Hands" manifest the ability to act at a distance. The ability of the dead king to act at a distance is in the ability of the sun to act at a distance (the sun shines on the pyramid). "Upward" lifts the pyramid and each of its stones (which comprise the king).

288a. The hkn-wtt-serpent is on her dm-sceptre, the sister (?) of N. who holds shu aloft.

There are a few problems with this line so will be omitted.

294a-c. Belonging to his throne, what he will take, what he will lift up, is that which his father shu has given him in the presence of Set.

The dead king lifts himself up. He lifts the water which lifts the stone which is himself as the pyramid.

379a. Those who have ascended are come, those who have ascended are come; those who have climbed are come, those who have climbed are come.
379b. Those who lifted themselves up like shu are come; those who have lifted themselves up like shu are come.
379c. N. ascends on the hips of Isis; N. climbs up on the hips of Nephthys.

Some rituals take place upon the pyramid at the pyre called the "iskn". Some climb up, some are inertia (upward) itself, and some must ride in the "two boats tied together" overseen by "isis" whose "hip" allow her ability to lift (with her legs).

All of reality was simply an extension of themselves.

447a. Thy established-offering is thine, O Atum together with the two lions, ye double power of the gods, yourselves, who created yourselves,
447b. that is, shu together with Tefnut, (who) created the gods, begat the gods, established the gods.
448a. Say ye to your father (Phta)

An "established offering" is a pyramid stone. It becomes established in its final position. It represents the potential energy of its altitude plus the energy required to provide this potential. "Upward" and "downward" (inertia and the normal force) are the double lions. Everything that goes up must come down. Shu and tefnut are intimately connected and it is they who made the heavenly ennead possible and gave birth to isis, set, nephthys, etc.

All utterances make sense literally when terms are solved in the context of the Pyramid Texts,
