It is nice to count with an ordered and clear vocabulary to the Theban recension of the BD, the more so when there is no other similar work in the market. Readers of Budge know him very well, so that warnings against his sometimes carelesness in transcribing the hieroglyphs and the old ways of transliterating them are unnecessary. Pay attention to the meanings of the terms: most of them are in bad need of a revision, but if the reader has more actual dictionaries (such as Faulkner's or Lesko's) there is no way to be mistaken. A great but rather out-of-date work, which must be used carefully by the beginners. For those engaged in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, a must and a doorway to understand better one of the most ancient religious texts of Humankind.
