Coptic Version of the New Testament in the Southern Dialect

Classics in the History of Early Christian Literature 48

Classics in the History of Early Christian Literature brings back into print book-length standard texts and research monographs on the earliest literature of Christianity. Classic editions of the works of the Fathers of the Church, translations into modern languages, critical monographs on individual texts, and surveys of the ancient literature have all been done; they are often referred to; but many of them are difficult for a modern reader to access, as they moulder in the pages of periodicals of limited circulation or availability.

Coptic Version of the New Testament in the Southern Dialect

Otherwise called Sahidic and Thebaic
