The Coptic Pentateuch and Arabic Gospels

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.de Lagarde, Paul is the author of 'The Coptic Pentateuch and Arabic Gospels', published 2009 under ISBN 9781593339654 and ISBN 1593339658.
