A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

It may perhaps be sufficient to state here, that the Coptic Version of the Scriptures was made at a very early period of the Christian era. This Version of the Old Testament, like all the other ancient Versions of it, was made from the Greek Text, and not from the original Hebrew. The Coptic Version of the Book of Job is now for the first time presented to the public, through the medium of the press. It has been printed from a separate Manuscript of that Book, in Coptic and A rabic in parallel columns, as far as Chap. xix. v. 23, where the A rabic ceases. This was copied, while I was in Egypt, from an ancient one in the Patriarch slibrary in Cairo. I afterwards collated it, while in Malta, in June 1839, with an old Manuscript in Coptic, belonging to the Rev. Mr. Schleinz; and I have since collated it with another ancient Manuscript in Coptic, without an A rabic translation, kindly presented to me i by Lord Prudhoe, since my return from Egypt. I therefore believe the text is as perfect as Manuscripts would enable me to make it.
