Homer

[edit]

All of the Oxyrhynchus manuscripts of Homer are housed at the University of Oxford's Sackler Library. The majority of the manuscripts are in a scroll format, and all but one manuscript is on papyrus (P. Oxy. 3826 is on parchment). P. Oxy. 2747, 3826, and 3831 are codices, while 2605, 4816, and 4817 are sheets. All off the manuscripts are damaged, and none of them are complete. The vast majority (if not all?) are fragments of a single folio (not sure if that term works with rolls).

NT Apoc

[edit]

The Oxyrhynchus Papyri collection contains around 20 manuscripts of New Testament apocrypha, works from the early Christian period that . These works include the gospels of Thomas, Mary, Peter, James, The Shepherd of Hermas, and the Didache. Among this collection are also a few manuscripts of unknown gospels. The 3 manuscripts of Thomas represent the only known Greek manuscripts of this work; the only other surviving manuscript of Thomas is a nearly complete Coptic manuscript from the Nag Hammadi find.[1] P. Oxy. 4706, a manuscript of Hermas, is notable because two sections believed by scholars to have been often circulated independently, Visions and Mandata, were found on the same roll.[2]

  • P. Oxy. V 840 and P. Oxy. XV 1782 are vellum
  • 2949?, 3525, 3529? 4705, and 4706 are scrolls, the rest codices.

Joseph

[edit]

Joseph "of the House of David" (heb.יוֹסֵף also Saint Joseph, Joseph the Betrothed, Joseph of Nazareth, and Joseph the Worker) was, according to the canonical Christian Gospel accounts, the husband of Mary[1] and supposed father of Jesus of Nazareth.[2] According to the Christian tradition, Joseph did not physically beget Jesus, as Mary had conceived the child through divine means (see virgin birth).[3] Therefore, most Christians consider Joseph to be Jesus' foster or legal father.


Jesus

[edit]
Jesus of Nazareth

Though depictions of Jesus are culturally important, no undisputed record of what Jesus looked like is known to exist.

Parables navbox test

[edit]


Not sure if we need "Thomas". There are apparently 3 or so novel parables in Secret James as well, but they don't have articles (and I've seen some sources that list a 3rd Thomas parable). The extracanonical section is possibly slightly expandable. But in it's current state, as I said in the beginnin,g I'm not sure if we need the "Thomas" group. We could just list the 2 next to "extracanonical" and skip the navbox child. -Andrew c [talk] 19:21, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Decalogue

[edit]

Groups of precepts, containing ten commandments each, are found in other parts of the Pentateuch, and that has given rise to a problem that occupied an important place in Biblical study. Many exegetes have held the view that the original Decalogue is not that of chapter xx, but a different series of ten commandments, namely, the practical precepts in ch. xxxiv 14-26. This view, after being alluded to in ancient times, in a Greek book dating from the end of the fifth century C.E., was advanced in a youthful work of Goethe's; and since Wellhausen agreed with it and gave it scientific basis, it enjoyed popularity, and until recently was widely accepted among Biblical scholars. Its primary basis was the theory held by historians of religion and culture that ritualism antedated the development of ethical principles...

— Cassuto, U. A Commentary on the Book of Ecodus jerusalem: The Magnes Press, The Hebrew University (1967: first published in Hebrew in 1951) p. 237

We have already seen that the sources include independent law codes: the ritual or Yahwistic Decalogue in J (Exod. xxxiv. 10-26), the two forms of the ethical Decalogue in E and D (Exod. xx 1-17; Deut. v. 1-21); the Book of the Covenant in E (Exod. xx 22-xxii. 33); the series of twelve cursed in Deut. xxvii. 15-26 (probably not D); the Code of Holiness (Lev. xvii-xxvi).

— Anderson, George W. A Critical Introduction to the Old Testament Gerald Duckworth (1959) p.50

The account of the rewriting of the Ten Commandments in Exodus 34 (usually assigned to J) contains a decalogue quite different from that of Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5. Known as the "Ritual Decalogue" (as distinct from the "Ethical Decalogue") because of its predominantly cultic character, it embodies only three of the stipulations of the Ethical Decalogue (vss. 14, 17, 21), and some of its laws have their parallels in the Covenant Code (Ex. 20:22-23:33). Though resting perhaps on an ancient version of the Decaloque, in its extant form it is little more than conglomerate of heterogeneous cultic regulations. 57.

In the Journal for the Study of the Old Testmanet, I found a review of David H. Aaron's Etched in Stone: The Emergence of the Decalogue (2006) T&T Clark ISBN 0-567-02971-9. I do not have access to the book, and obviously have not read it, but based on the review and the amazon description, he appears to treat the 3 decalogues on the same level, and comes to the conclusion that Ex. 34 is the earliest. The reviewer does have a parenthetical comment explaining the 3 decalogues, so perhaps that is an indication it is not a normal classificaiton. Aaron appears to be well trained, semi-well published, and employeed by a repitable institution. Not sure if his position is fringe, but I'd like to read how Aaron explains his claim of 3 decalogues.
