Summary:

This volume presents, for the first time, a critical edition of the earliest retrievable text (i.e., the Versio Antiquo) of the Gospel of John in Classical Ethiopic (Ge'ez). Altogether, 21 manuscripts have been collated, representing four different text types. The Versio Antiquo is represented by the first text type of which, for the most part, the important Mss Abba Garima I and III, dated to 1270 or earlier, have been employed as the basic text. Five appendices are also included, in the last of which is supplied a collation of the Versio Antiqua with the critical apparatus of the 27th edition of Novum Testamentum Graece.

Notes:

A critical edition of the Ethiopic version of the Gospel of John.

Includes bibliographical references (page xlii-xliv).
