Deux homélies inédites de Jacques de Saroug

Paul Bedjan’s massive edition of Jacob of Sarug’s homilies (5 vols. originally, with an additional volume in the Gorgias reprint) made no claim to be complete, and Syriac scholars continued to publish Jacob’s works as they became known from sources not used by Bedjan. In this work, which first appeared in Mélanges de l'Université Saint Joseph, the Jesuit scholar Paul Mouterde presents the Syriac text, with French translation, of two previously unedited homilies from Jacob of Sarug: “On Mary and Golgotha,” and “On Strangers and their Burial.” The first homily deals especially with the Incarnation.
