Document Details : Title: Un nouveau texte copte relatif à Jean-Baptiste (Louvre, E 10067/R151) Author(s): LOUIS, Catherine Journal: Journal of Coptic Studies Volume: 23 Date: 2021 Pages: 71-89 DOI: 10.2143/JCS.23.0.3289389 Abstract : This article aims to present a new Coptic fragment preserved at the Louvre Museum which contains a story upon the life of John the Baptist. In this account, Herod and Herodias try to seize John who disapproves their behaviour. Two homilies, preserved only in Arabic, contain the same narrative as this Coptic fragment, which in turn could well be the first known witness of a common source for these two homilies. |
