49	INTRODUCTION
50	Description of the Papyrus.—The papyrus which is here
51	printed for the first time is deseribed in Mr. W. E. Crum'’s
52	Catalogue of the Coptic MSS. in the British Museum under
53	the no. 951 as follows: —
54	‘Or. 5984,—Papyrus; the remnants of a very fine book,
55	now preserved between glass, in 62 numbered frames. A page
56	when complete (v. nos. 61, 62) measured 141 x 10% in., tho
57	whole surface consisting of a single selis. The text, in one
58	column of 36-38 lines divided into paragraphs, is written in
59	rounded uncials of Zocga’s 3rd or 4th class, &, ⲗ, ⲙ, ⲧ
60	being each formed of single strokes (& rarely angular, in
61	two strokes). Initials at the principal sections are enlarged
62	and accompanied by scroll ornaments (v. no. 48). Only a few
63	fragts. show their pagination (nos. 4-12), viz. from K5—%,
64	the alternate figures only being marked (on verses), except
65	at the beginnings of quires (no. 5 beg. of qu. 5, no. 12 of
66	qu. RH). [Rev. C. Murch. ]
67	‘The MS. originally contained the books of Proverbs (frames
68	nos, 2-13), Ecclesiastes (nos. 14, 15), Canticles (nos. 16-20),
69	Wisdom (nos. 21-40) and Ecelesiasticus (marked as Sir,
70	nos. 41-62). The paged fragts. are from the first of these,
71	p- K& bearing part of ch. xi. Assuming therefore that the
72	volume opened with Proverbs, we must consider the single
73	small fragt. of Job (from chh. xxxviii, xxxix), framed as no. 1,
74	to belong to another volume ; though it is of course possible
75	that cach book was given separate pagination. Considerable
76	portions of the other books are preserved. The text of
77	Wisdom and Eeclesiasticus appears to differ only in verbal
78	details from the Turin MS. (ed. Lagarde). The differences
79	are often such as might be duc to copying or dictation.
80	The archaic doubling of the liquids ⲃ, A, p is not found
page 12
81	vi INTRODUCTION
82	in this MS. What remains of the Prologue to Eccli. is here
83	printed” Mr. Crum’s reprint of the Prologue does not need to
84	be reproduced here as it will be found in its place on p. 126.
85	A few details may be added to the foregoing description.
86	The papyrus came into the possession of the British Museum
87	in 1901. In regard to size the pages are among the largest
88	known of papyri in codex form!, the largest dimensions of
89	complete pages being 36-5 cm. height (leaf 61) and 26-5 cm.
90	width (leaves 6, 8). The size of the written selis is 28 x 21 em.
91	(leaf 36) on an average. The number of lines on a complete
92	page ranges between 33 (p. 417, 62 v) and 38 (36 , 49 7,0),
93	the usual number being 34-36.
94	The MS. unfortunately is very imperfect, as only 77 leaves
95	or portions of leaves survive out of a probable total of 168
96	when the codex was complete 2. The papyrus itself varies a
97	good deal in quality and condition. In parts it is palimpsest,
98	and though the underwriting is not legible 3, the scraping of the
99	surface has affected the condition of the upper writing in parts,
100	especially where, as it seems, it has been exposed to damp.
101	The palimpsest is traceable from leaf 4b to 13 (Proverbs),
102	it is very slight between 14 and 20 (Eccles. and Cant), it
103	is more frequent on leaves 21-40 (Sapientia), and from 41
104	onwards (Sirach) there is no trace of it, and evidently that
105	part of the papyrus was new when it reccived the present
106	text.
107	Date.—The MS. is in the same handwriting throughout ;
108	the only leaf as to which any doubt can be felt is no. 1, the
109	solitary fragment from the book of Job, but I feel little
110	doubt that it is by the same hand. Unfortunately the leaf is
111	too imperfect to admit of any argument being drawn from
112	the size of cither leaf or selis; but in the attempt to recon-
113	struct the outward form of the codex (p. viii, infra) it will
114	be found to fit into its place in the scheme. The dating of
115	Coptic MSS. is notoriously a difficult matter, but as regards
116	! Cf. Crum, Cat. Coptic MSS. in Brit. Mus., p. xiii.
117	2 Below, p. xvii.
118	ⲑ Tt is most distinct on leaves nos. 6-12 and 21, 3 I have not
119	succeeded in making out the nature of the earlier work, but it was
120	certainly in Coptic.

121	INTRODUCTION vii
122	this MS. Mr. Crum has described it as ‘perhaps of the VIth
123	or VIIth century’ (Proc. Soc. bibl. Arch. 1902, xxiv 174).
124	I will not venture on any closer definition.
125	Contents.— The MS. contains parts of certain books of
126	the Old Testament, viz. Job, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes (Eccles.),
127	Song of Songs (Cant), Wisdom of Solomon (Sap.), and
128	Ecclesiasticus (Sir.). Of Job only one fragment containing
129	a few verses remains; of Proverbs considerable portions of
130	chapters iv to xxiv remain; of Ecclesiastes small fragments;
131	of the Song a considerable portion of the whole; while of
132	Wisdom we have portions of every chapter, and of Sirach
133	the major portion of the work as far as chapter xl. At
134	first sight it might be questioned whether it was worth
135	while to publish so fragmentary a MS.; but when it is
136	considered how very imperfect is our text of the Sahidic
137	version of the Old Testament, and how important that text
138	is, not only in its bearing on our knowledge of the Coptic
139	language and literature, but even on Old Testament criticism
140	in general, it will probably be admitted that publication may
141	be of some use to scholars. A large portion of the text has
142	been printed from other MSS. by Ciasca, Lagarde, and others,
143	yet the following texts are printed in the Sahidic version for
144	the first time :-
145	Job xxxix 10-12.
146	Proverbs iv 13-14, 16-27; v complete, though fragmentary
147	in parts; vi 1-11; xii 17-23 (fragmentary, as are
148	also the following portions of this book); xiii 2-10,
149	13-20, 22-25; xiv 1-5, 8-18, 22-30, 33-35; xv 1-3,
150	6, 10-15, 17-18, 21-29; xvi 1-9, 11 a-15 a, 20-24,
151	30-33; xvii 1, 7-10, 17-20 a; xviii 1-4, 13-16;
152	xix 1-3, 10-12, 22-24,
153	Eccles. ix 4-6.
154	Cant. i 14 b, 17; ii 1-4, 8-10, 13a, 17; iii 7, 8 a.
155	Sap. xvii 4 b,c, 18a; xviii 7b, 8; xix 7a.
156	Sir. i 1-3a, 11b, 12a; ii 18; iil 8b-18; viii 17-19;
157	ix 9; x 4b, 12b; xxvii 7, 8a, 22-24; xxix 18 b;
158	xxxt 5b; xxxix 13h.
159	The quality of the text, by comparison with the other
160	MSS., where they exist, is good, though in Sap. it is not
page 14
161	viii INTRODUCTION
162	equal to that of the Turin MS. (ed. Lagarde); in Sir., while
163	sometimes inferior to the Turin MS. it is not infrequently
164	superior to it, or at any rate nearer to the version presented
165	by the chief Greek uncials. Where the two MSS. disagree,
166	neither has any consistent support from the other Greek
167	MSS. so far as they are collated in Holmes and Parsons.
168	In Sir. it goes without saying that our MS. like that at
169	Turin, follows the Greek uncials in the misplacing of the
170	sections xxx 25—xxxiii 13 a and xxxiii 13 b—xxxvi 16 a.
171	A collation with all other printed Sahidic texts of the same
172	portions of the Old Testament has been added.
173	Form of the Codex.—The volume is incomplete, but 1t is
174	possible to reconstruct it to some extent. At present there
175	arc 77 leaves or portions of leaves (besides one fragment
176	unassigned) distributed among the different books as follows:
177	Job 1, Proverbs 23, Ecclesiastes 3, Song of Songs (Cant.) 6,
178	Wisdom 20, Sirach 24. Page-numeration is found only on
179	the leaves of Proverbs!, which are numbered on the werso
180	with numbers ranging from 24 to 61 in alternate numbers,
181	24, 26, &c.®: hence the recto was regarded as having a
182	number, though bearing none except when it is the first
183	page of a new quire (leaf 8b, 12a). Quire-signatures also
184	occur on fo. 5 a recto § (beginning) and 8 a verso 5 (end of
185	quire), on 8 b recto Z (beginning) and 11 ⲉ verso Z (end
186	of quire) and 12 a recto Ⲛ︦. This shows us that the codex
187	consisted of sheets arranged in quaternions, each sheet
188	consisting of two leaves which were folded so that when
189	formed into a quaternion the quire consists of eight leaves,
190	of which the first four had horizontal fibres on the recto
191	and vertical fibres on the verso (=HV), and the following
192	! In Eccles. and Cant. there are traces of pagination on the top left-
193	hand comer of three pages, viz. K on 14 b verso, 2 on 16a verso, and
194	perhaps ⲏ︦ or Ⲛ̄ on 17 seefo, but all except the first are so effaced as to
195	be very uncertain, and I believe they are the effaced numbering of
196	a palimpsest writing. The papyrus in this part is not well preserved
197	and gives the impression of having been used before and cleaned.
198	2 The scribe has inadvertently left out the number 38, marking the
199	recto of leaf 8b ⲗ︦ⲍ︦ and the verso 20, and then continuing with the
200	serics 41, 43, &e., to 61,

203	four leaves had vertical fibres on the recto and horizontal
204	fibres on the verso (=VH).
205	It 1s convenient to set out
206	the relations of the leaves with respect to fibres, Ⲁⲥ, in

311	In the above table the first column gives the numbers of
312	the glass frames in which the leaves have been mounted.
313	Where more fragments than one are mounted in a single
314	frame, they are distinguished as a, b, ¢, &e.
315	The text enables
316	us to say which of the leaves were originally contiguous, and
317	this is indicated by the black line in the second column.
318	Where there is a gap, there is usually no difficulty in calcu-
page 18
319	x1 INTRODUCTION
320	lating how many leaves have disappeared by counting the
321	lines of the Greek text and reckoning how many lines of
322	Greek text correspond to a leaf of Coptic text; thus, in
323	the gap between fo. 3 and 4 a (Prov. vi 11 to viii 35) there
324	are 176 1l. in Greek, and as fos. 2 and 3 (=Prov. iv 16 to
325	vi 11, adding 7 11. for the missing top of fo. 2 calculated from
326	the average number of lines in a page of the MS.) contain
327	ⲥ. 116 1. in Greek or c. 58 to a Coptic leaf, obviously the
328	missing 176 11. Greek must represent three lost leaves of
329	Coptic between 3 and 4 a. This enables us to reconstitute
330	quire € thus: —

341	The roman numerals represent the missing leaves; the
342	pagination is obtained by counting back from the earliest exist-
343	ing number, 24 on fo. 5b verso, fos. 2, 3, and 4 a having lost
344	their pagination by the corners of the papyrus being broken.
345	Since we know that 4 a is the last leaf of a quire and fo. 3
346	1s HV, the quire could not have been a quinion, as is the
347	case once, at the beginning of Sapientia. Now the missing
348	beginning of Proverbs from i 1 to iv 16 where fo. 2 begins=
349	113 lL in Greek=2 leaves Coptic. Therefore the book of
350	Proverbs began at quire Ⲉ Sapientia and Sirach also begin
351	at the commencement of a new quire. What is strange is
352	that the pagination of Proverbs thus began at p. 5; and
353	I can only suggest that originally Proverbs was a separate
354	codex and had two blank but numbered leaves at the
355	beginning, as was the case in the London Psalter (Earliest
356	Known Coptic Psalter, ed. E. A. Wallis Budge, p. ix),
page 19
357	INTRODUCTION ⲁ
358	though in the latter instance the blank leaves were not
359	numbered.
360	Fo. 12d ends at Prov. xxiv 13, and from that point to the
361	end is a lacuna. It is possible to ealculate that 12a eon-
362	tained the Coptie equivalent of 48 Il. of Greck, 12b 55 11,
363	and 12¢ 49 11; thus we may safely take 50 ll. Greek as about
364	the equivalent of a leaf of Coptic in this part. Now from
365	Prov. xxiv 13 to the end the Greek text eontains 512 lines;
366	therefore ten leaves may be taken as missing after 12 d to the
367	end of Proverbs,
368	Since Proverbs began at quire €, we must assume that the
369	quire numbers were added after the several books had been
370	gathered together into one volume. Four quires are left at
371	the beginning to be aecounted for. There is one fragmentary
372	leaf of the book of Job (fo. 1) apparently in the same hand-
373	writing as the rest of the MS. and as far as one ean judge
374	a part of it. Now the book of Job in the Sahidie version
375	was the short one of the pre-Origenic LXX, which in round
376	numbers was shorter by about 380 ⲉⲥⲟ than that which
377	is found in our ehief uneials (Ciasea, Sacr. Bibl. frag. eopto-
378	sah. ii. p. xxxiii). Swete gives the number of stickoi in
379	Job as 2153 (cod. B) as eompared with 1124 for Sapientia.
380	Subtracting 380 from 2153 we have 1773 for Job compared
381	with 1124 for Sapientia. These 1124 ctichoi take up 21
382	leaves of our MS. Therefore 1773 would take 33 leaves,
383	whieh, considering the rough nature of the hasis of com-
384	putation, is sufficiently near to the 32 required for four
385	quires (quaternions) to be accepted. Thus we may fairly
386	assume that the volume began with Job in the usual Sahidie
387	version.
388	Eecelesiastes 1 1—vi 6 is missing. From the remains of
389	fos. 14 a, 15, and 14 b and the one leaf missing between
390	14 a and 15 an average of about 53 lines of Greek text
391	may be taken as the equivalent of a Coptie leaf in this
392	book. The initial lacuna is represented by 370 ll. Greek
393	less about 12 for the lost top of fo. 14 a=358 lines. Thus
394	in all probability seven leaves are missing here. Similarly
395	from ix 6 to the end there is a gap of 177 Il in the Greek=
396	3% leaves Coptic, while at the beginning of Cant. before
page 20
397	X1V INTRODUCTION
398	fo. 16 a+b we have 33 short lines (Greek) which it would
399	be quite possible to get into one page, since fos. 17, 18, 19
400	(Cant. iv 3 to vii 13, where the Greek lines are rather
401	longer) contain about 50, 60, and 55 Greek lines respectively,
402	or an average of 55. Since the end of Eccles. requires almost
403	exactly 3% leaves and the beginning of Cant. one page, i.e.
404	half a leaf, it would seem that in the case of the latter short
405	book it was not thought necessary to commence a new quire
406	for it. At the end of Cant. the arrangement of the fibres
407	seems to indicate that a blank page was left between it and
408	Sap. which follows.
409	The first Wisdom book (Sap.) begins a new quire, in this
410	sole instance a quinion, which is followed by a quaternion,
411	and then, as only a very small portion of the book remained
412	to be written, the scribe seems to have taken another sheet
413	which he folded and wrote in the unusual order VH-HYV, and
414	then found that one more leaf was wanted which is now
415	missing. He started Sirach on a new quire which proceeds,
416	so far as we have it, in the following order :—two quaternions,
417	a ternion, and two more quaternions. The numbers of the
418	missing leaves work out with certainty by calculation from
419	the Greek text.
420	The foregoing tedious details may now be gathered up
421	into the following table which, though hypothetical in one
422	or two minor points, can scarcely be altered in its main
423	outlines.

579	INTRODUCTION xvii
580	The missing portion of Sirach would require about 13
581	more leaves, i.e. two more quaternions inclusive of fos. 61
582	and 62, which begin a quire. Supposing the whole codex
583	to have ended there, it would have consisted of 336 pages
584	(168 fos.).
585	The printing of this edition.—The MS. has been printed
586	in this edition in such a way as to reproduce it as far as
587	possible under the rigid conditions of type. The length of
588	the lines, their inset, the earrying up of the ends of a line
589	into the blank space of the line above it, the occasional
590	interlincations have all been reproduced; as also the super-
591	lineation which has occasionally, but rarely, been inserted
592	where it would be expected, but has probably been broken
593	away. It was felt that, if omitted, its absence might lead
594	to a wrong inference being drawn, and, in the defective
595	condition of the MS. to mention every instance in the notes
596	of sueh insertion would overload them. On the other hand,
597	where an expected superlineation is omitted, it may be
598	assumed that the condition of the papyrus enables it to
599	be said that there never was any originally. Likewise with
600	regard to punctuation, it is very difficult on faded parts of
601	the MS. to be sure whether one or two dots were originally
602	present, and therefore too much stress must not be laid on
603	it. For convenience in reading the words of the Coptic text
604	have been divided in the usual way.
605	In the collation no notice has been taken of certain small
606	differences between this MS. and the Turin MS. (Lagarde) of
607	the two Wisdoms, which are of frequent occurrence, viz. in
608	Lagarde Ϩ︦ⲛ︦ for Ϩⲉⲛ, Ⲉⲓ for 1 in both Greek and Coptic
609	words, the assimilated definite article ⲣⲣⲱⲙⲉ, &e., or any
610	difference in superlineation or dots over I or in punctuation.
611	The numbering of verses adopted by Swete in his edition
612	of the Septuagint (Cambridge, 1895-9) has been followed,
613	but Lagarde’s numbering, where it differs in Sapientia and
614	Sirach, has been inserted in brackets.

What the layers are

L0 witness
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.

L0.5 transliteration
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).

L1 Cairene
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.

L2 Kemetic
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
