This volume contains two short studies on the Diatessaron and Syriac literature. Readers who study the history of the Gospels in Syriac and their reception and use in Syriac literature will find these two studies of interest.
In the two articles reprinted here, Dom Hugh Connolly offers an annotated English translation of two homilies from Jacob of Serugh dealing with the Eucharist (Bedjan nos. 22 and 95), as well as a short selection from homily 53.
Although this fragmentary Eastern Syriac Anaphora was previously published by G. Bickell, R.H. Connolly disagreed with several editorial and conjectural decisions. Thus, Connolly publishes here his own edited version of the text accompanied by a Latin translation and extended notes.
