Bible. New Testament -- Criticism, interpretation, etc.
*11. Oriental 1315. The four Gospels, fol., paper, Copt. Arab. The
letter to Carpianus, Eusebian tables, &c., are prefixed. This MS.,
dated A.M. 924 = 1208 A.D., and bearing a statement of donations
in A.M. 973 = 1257 A.D., is very similar in writing to Cod. Vat.
ix, and the name of the scribe George occurs in both, but the
readings do not agree. This and the two following MSS. are from
Sir C. A. Murray’s collection.
*12. Oriental 1316. The four Gospels, 8vo, paper, Copt. Arab.,
illuminated, and dated A.D. 1663.
*13. Oriental 1317. The four Gospels, 8vo, paper, Copt. Arab.,
elaborately illuminated, and dated 1814.
In the British and Foreign Bible Society’s Library:
*14. The four Gospels, sm. 8vo size (five leaves in a quire),
paper, Copt. Arab. The volume begins with the letter to Carpianus
and the tables. Introductions are prefixed to the Gospels. The
Ammonian Sections and Eusebian Canons are marked. This volume is a
copy made from one in the possession of the Patriarch of Cairo for
the Bible Society, and bears the date A.D. 1817 (in a colophon at
the end of St. Luke). It was partially used for the Society’s
edition of the Coptic Gospels (_see_ above, p. 107). It contains
Luke xxii. 43, 44; xxiii. 17, 34; John v. 3, 4; vii. 53-viii. 11,
and seems to represent the common Coptic text of the present day.
In private Libraries in England(105):
15. The Library of the Earl of Crawford and Balcarres. Fol.,
paper. The four Gospels. It was written (see colophon at the end
of St. Luke) by a scribe, Simon of Tampet, but the date A.M. 1230
= A.D. 1508 is of the donation to a monastery. Several leaves in
different parts of the volume were added much later, A. Mart. 1540
(i.e. A.D. 1824), by one George, a monk. It has a rough picture
and the Ammonian Sections and Canons throughout. There is a
tendency to Sahidic forms. For these particulars my thanks are due
to Mr. Rodwell who kindly allowed me to see his catalogue of Lord
Crawford’s collection. Through inadvertence I omitted to inspect
the MS. itself.
