Former Portland Oregon temple president, Brother Cottle, wrote a fascinating little book on the facsimiles contained in the Book of Abraham.
Critics of the Book of Abraham claim that the facsimilies are just examples taken from Egyptian Book of Breathings or Book of the Dead and that Joseph Smith just slapped his own interpretation onto the Egyptian's works. Brother Cottle noted how Abraham drew his facsimilies after the style of the Egyptians, but they contain many significant differences introduced by Abraham himself, not the way the Egyptians typically drew such things. The differences all support the fact that Abraham was teaching higher truths than the Egyptians understood. Brother Cottle also noted how very symbolic the drawings are. It was an excellent treatise on the deeper meanings of the drawings.
