https://doi.org/10.31802/BCA.2023.17.1.001
Abstract
The article deals with four fragments of homilies by an unknown Christian preacher, which probably formed a single exegetical series of interpretations of the Book of Gen esis. The codicological features of two Vatican manuscripts in which the fragments have sur vived are analyzed; the sources of the exegesis of the anonymous preacher, namely the writings of the Jewish writer Philo of Alexandria, with which extensive parallels have emerged, are stud ied. The article gives an editio princeps of the texts and their Russian translation.
