Written in the days when textual criticism was still relatively new, and the great mass of manuscripts commonly used by present-day biblical scholars had not yet been plumbed, Lagarde spent many years making these exotic manuscripts available to scholars who previously had no access to them. In this volume are combined two manuscripts: the Pentateuch translated into Coptic, and the Gospels translated into Arabic. Despite the relatively recent dates of the manuscript sources for both collections, the material contained in these translations dates back to earlier days. Each of these translations is introduced in German with some critical notes about the readings included. |
|  | Ibn Gauzi's Kitab al-Wafa fi fada'il al Mustafa by Carl Brockelmann
This investigation of Abu-al-Faraj Ibn al-Jawzi’s al-Wafa bi Fada'il al-Mustafa, according to the Leiden manuscript by one of Germany’s foremost Semiticists, is essential reading for anyone interested in Arabic history and literature. Ibn al-Jawzi was a twelfth-century jurist and perhaps the most prolific writer in the history of Arabic literature. Al-Wafa bi Fada'il al-Mustafa (Detailed Accounts of the Chosen Prophet), is a large work on the biography of the prophet Muhammad. In this manuscript study, Brockelmann analyzes several aspects of this composition, including citations of this work by other notable Islamic writers. |

The variety of Arabic versions of the New Testament is bewildering.

The volume also includes a treatise on the Triune nature of God, with an English translation. |

It is likely that through the missionary efforts of the branches of the Syriac tradition, Syriac speaking Christians were the primary representation of Christianity among both pre-Islamic Arabs and Muslims in the early Islamic period. Thus, it is not surprising to find instances in which Syriac traditions shaped particular concepts of Christianity within Arabic and Islamic traditions. In the present article, Anton Baumstark argues that some biblical citations found in Arabic sources demonstrate an Arabic translation not from Greek or even from the Syriac Peshitta, but rather from the Old Syriac tradition. Baumstark focuses on the translation history of a passage from the birth narrative in Matthew (1:18-21), and concludes that the unique features of this passage in the Old Syriac tradition are preserved in an Arabic citation, but not in other traditions. Baumstark concludes with a comparison of the text of the Psalm citation found in the Quran (Sura 21:105) with the Syriac and Greek texts. Table of Contents | |
