20083Though quite legible and all but intact, the
20084text is of such difficulty that I cannot give a
20085summary of its contents. The subjects dealt
20086with are various. The writer seems to begin
20087by stating his poverty and by invoking God’s
20088aid in which he declares his trust. Later on
20089(1. 16) money-matters are dealt with. In
2009011. 17, 18 several people are greeted. In l. 24
20091the writer apparently asks that his son be
20092not sent to school.

20872Letter from Chael to the bishop, whom he
20873expresses a desire to see. In 1. 13 he begs’
20874not to be forgotten. The obscurity of the
20875remainder is probably increased by the writer's
20876carelessness; cf. the spelling of the common
20877expressions in 1. 2-7.

23441Deuteronomy ⲅ. 23—vi. 3 (with gaps in
23442vv. 26, 30, 1) with an Arabic translation.
23443The version is very peculiar, differing con-
23444stantly from Wilkins’s and Lagarde’s text.
23445In secondary details it sometimes agrees with
23446the Sa‘idic (Ciasca) but on the whole it is
23447independent. The beginning of v. 29 it omits
23448while before vi. 3 it inserts the Decalogne.!

23470the text. Its readings are unknown to them (except for
23471a chance coincidence with certain Greek cursives). The
23472former suggests a cervice-book or—if such existed—an
23473anthology as the erigin of the MS, Several of the read-

25059Or. 1242(6).—Paper ; parts of 3 leaves;
25060a complete leaf, about ⲭⲓ in. The
25061text is in 3 columns: Coptic, Greek and
25062Arabic. The Coptic is written in some 27
25063lines of an even, rather small hand (cf. Hyver-
25064nat, Album, pl. 1 for nu, +, while a has the
25065almost Sa‘idic form of b. xxix, x1). Initials
25066are in red or red and green, head-lines ⲥ.
25067in red. The Greek is in sloping characters
25068by another scribe (ⲝ. the ink), while the
25069Arabic 1s apparently by the scribe of the
25070Coptic.

25073From a service-book with lessons in Coptic,
25074Greek and Arabic; probably for Holy Week,
25075since the passages on the largest fragt. (Dan.
25076vii. 3-1 Ps. xxiv. 1—3, Mat. xxiv. 3, 4)
250771 T have failed to identify any of them. They have
25078the appearance of patchwork. The 1st of Athanasius
25079quotes or refers to Rom. xi. 33; the 2nd is “clearly from
25080a Festal Lpistle, but none extant begins thus, Their
25081Arabic versions are on foll. 89, 107, 119 of Arend. Or. 12.

26550Funeral Services. The following is the
26551order of the services, which differs from that
26552in Tuki’s Rituale, where they are often
26553longer: for a grown man, for a boy, a woman,
26554a girl, for a woman who has died at or after
26555childbirth, for a hegumenus or priest (the
26556former is not mentioned in Tuki Too f,, where
26557the service is also longer), a deacon, a monk,
26558for a man dying in the Paschal week, for a
26559woman likewise (not in Tuki, the lesson
26560being Gen. xxiii. 1—xxiv. 1), the memorial
26561services a month, 6 months or a year after
26562death (Tuki dud), likewise at the grave on
26563the 3rd and 7th days after death (Tuki ⲫ︦︦︦)
26564the anaphora of the dead, at the death of a
26565nun, of a patriarch or bishop (this abbreviated
26566ⲓ). Arabic versions follow the Coptic
26567texts. Prayers are in Arabic only.
26568Foll. 167—239 consist of Arabic dirges,
26569ⲙ, ϥ comfort and consolation for whoso
26570is bereaved.”* The 1st is for general use;
26571the 2nd (fol. 2290) was composed by Ibn
26572Kabr for a notable of his time and may be
26573said before the prayer
26574the 3rd is for a woman of rank, by the same
26575author; the 4th for a boy; the 5th, perhaps
26576by Ibn Ⲕⲁⲓ for a girl; the 6th, unusually
26577long, is called a homily (i:,<) for general
26578use by John of Ⲕⲁⲓ On fol. 170 is a

267661 T cannot find this elsewhere. A Greek word in -dptov
26767would be masculine here. The Arabic means a ‘“ shell”

26769the concha ⲕⲟⲩⲥ or ciborium (v. Goar, Eucholog. 15).
26770The prayer is; “God, who didst say to Thy servant

28120Apparently from a liturgical book. It
28121shows part of a description of the building
28122of the Ark of the Covenant from Exodus
28123xxxvii. 4ff. The text however is not that of
28124the LXX but approximates to the version of
28125Theodotion (z. Field's Hezapla i. 153). In
28126its midst moreover arc two apparently extra-
28127neous dogmatical phrases (marked here as
28128aa, bb) the second of which compares the
28129Virgin with the Ark and, by the words * saith
28130he,” shows perhaps that the passage belongs
28131to a homily incidental in some liturgical
28132office.’ But the present confusion of the
28133text is most likely due to a copyist’s error.

28248From a Homily. The following is an
28249abstract of the text.
28250[John] lay upon Jesus’ breast. Oh, this
28251Giver of perfect and unchangeable gifts! A
28252man of flesh and blood, son of a woman,
28253rests on Jesus’ breast and talks with Him.
28254The fisherman’s son becomes the beloved of
28255God. Christ's breast in place of the ship’s
28256planks! After the Crucifixion He appeared
28257to Simon and to Mary, calling them no more
28258disciples but brethren and sons of God; and
28259He sent them the Comforter. In the various
28260trials of the Apostles, Christ’s love and glory
28261were always with them. Peter and John
28262cured the lame ; they healed the sick and the
28263possessed. Who shall recount their glory?
28264They are like goodly fruit-trees and Christ
28265Himself a fair trce. His disciples will
28266resemble Him at His appearance and will sit
28267upon the thrones judging the world. Ob,
28268the glory of that day! The whole world,
28269since Adam, judged by these twelve. The
28270shame of Judas at that hour! Peter will say
28271to him, * Why didst thou not ask pardon as
282721did?’ So too Thomas. But he shall weep
28273unheard. Quotations; Joh. xiii. 25, xx. 17,
28274Ae. iil. 6, v. 16, 1 Joh. iii. 2, 1 Cor. vi. 3.

29313The text,in‘one colnmn of 36—38 lines divided
29314into paragraphs, is written in rounded uncials

29323a few fragts. show their pagination (nos.
293244—12), viz. from ke—3, the alternate figures
29325only being marked (on versos), except at the

2932712 of qu. ⲡ︦).
29328[Rev. C. Ⲙⲅⲃcr.]
29329The MS. originally contained the hooks of
29330Proverbs (frames nos. 2—13), Ecclesiastes
29331(nos. 14, 15), Canticles (nos. 16—20), Wisdom
29332(nos. 21—40) and Ecclesiasticus (marked as
29333Sir., nos. 41—62). The paged fragts. are
29334from the first of these, ⲣ. k& bearing part
29335of ch. xi. Assuming therefore that the
29336volume opened with Proverbs, we must con-
29337sider the single small fragt. of Job (from
29338chh. xxxviii, xxxix), framed as no. 1, to
29339belong to another volume; though it is of
29340course possible that each book was given
29341separate pagination. Considerable portions
29342of the other books are preserved. The text
29343of Wisdom and Ecclesiasticus appears to
29344differ only in verbal details from the Turin
29345MS. (ed. Lagarde). The differences are often
29346such as might be due to copying or dictation.

29644A Prayer to God the Father, who forgives
29645our sins for Christ’s sake. “Accept us, Lord,
29646and accept at our hands these reasonable

29667From Ahmim. [GRENFELL ]
29668From a Diptych, in Greek and Coptic, the
29669former being on the verses, the latter on the
29670rectos.® It does not correspond to any ⲣⲱⲃ-
29671lished form. It contained apparently the
29672names of (1) the Old Testament patriarchs,
29673prophets &c., (2) New Testament saints, (3)
29674the actnal patriarch of Alexandria and local
29675bishop,* (4) certain martyrs. The following
29676is the text.

296833 Possibly however the successive paragraphs were in
29684alternate languages and did not translate one another.
296854 Names have been erased here and replaced by
29686Benjamin and Eunomos. The parchment could hardly
29687have borne two successive erasures; one would therefore
29688assume that of B.s predecessor, Andronikos, to have
29689been originally written. But the space seems too short
29690for that name. The script of the aetual names is of
29691much the same type as that of the original scribe.

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.
English
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
