----- 密西根草纸3520和6868(A):法源方言中的传道书,第一约翰和彼得的第二书信
This is the first edition of two coptic manuscripts with biblical contents from the papyrus collection of the university ofmichigan; a german translation is provided. comprehensive indexes provide access to the two papyri. the papyrus michigan 3520 contains the biblical books of ecclesiastes, the first epistle of st. john and the second epistle of st. peter in an early version of fayumic (dialect v4). the manuscript probably dates from the first half of the 4th century, and its age alone lends it extraordinary scholarly significance - both for the history of the transmission of biblical texts and for research into the coptic dialects. the first part of the (slightly younger) papyrus michigan 6868 contains fragments of the preaching of solomon (ecclesiastes) in classical fayumic (dialect f5) and is similarly of great value for the history of the coptic septuagint.
