Fragmenta Dublinensia

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Isaiah 30: 2-13 in TK Abbott, 1880

Fragmenta Dublinensia (No. 918 after Rahlfs ; Sigel O) is the name for eight sheets of a parchment manuscript from the early 6th century. They were originally described in Greek with the text of Isaiah 30.2-31.7 and 36.19-38.2 ( Septuagint ). The text followed the Hesychian review.

The manuscript was overwritten in the 10th or 11th century with patristic texts (homilies of Gregory of Nazianzen ) ( palimpsest ).

In 1787, John Barnett discovered that this manuscript was originally written with texts from Isaiah and especially Matthew ( Codex Dublinensis ). In 1853, Samuel P. Tregelles worked with chemicals to find more details of the original texts. The fragments are now in Trinity College in Dublin with the signature K 3.4 (Add. 6594).
