Lists containing the identity and activities of the seventy (or seventy-two) disciples sent out by Jesus circulated in various forms throughout early Christianity. As these lists were copied, they were naturally compared and corrected against other known versions of the list. The writings of Abu-al-Barakat contain two versions of this list. Anton Baumstark presents here the Arabic text of one of Barakat’s lists. This version of the list was purportedly compiled from non-Greek sources. In his introduction to the text, Baumstark discusses the influences of the Syrian and Greek traditions and concludes that it demonstrates a strong influence from the Syrian tradition. However, Baumstark also notes that there are many corruptions in the text that lead him to the conclusion that the Vorlage was not a pure representation of the Syrian tradition but was corrected by Coptic sources. Baumstark presents the Arabic text of the list along with a Latin translation.

Marriage and the Sacraments

Originally delivered as one of the St. Margaret’s Lectures for 1904, the contents of this booklet are focused on aspects of the Syriac-speaking Church. Extracted from Burkitt’s book Early Eastern Christianity, the fourth lecture concerns the development of marriage and the role of sacraments in the early Syriac Church. Burkitt finds that marriage was not early regarded as a sacrament and the married faithful were not permitted the sacraments of baptism or communion in the early tradition represented by Aphraates.
