Among them is a new, recently discovered Ethiopic version of the \u003ci\u003eApostolic Tradition\u003c\/i\u003e contained in the Aksumite Collection edited by Alessandro Bausi. Also, the Arabic version of the \u003ci\u003eClementine Octateuch, \u003c\/i\u003ewhile known for some time, has only recently been edited by Martin L?straeten, allowing scholars access to this important witness. Each of these witnesses provides valuable insights into the origins and development of the \u003ci\u003eApostolic Tradition\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Based on these new witnesses, as well as new secondary literature, the translations and commentary provided in this book updates and challenges earlier and more recent studies with special regard to liturgical practices. In addition, English translations of these witnesses are provided for the first time anywhere. Revisiting an earlier claim held by J. M. Hanssens, SJ, this study also argues that the final redaction of the text likely occurred within an Egyptian orbit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liturgical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/07\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798400801839\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 424","brand":"Nathan P.
