The series opens with the account of the martyr-

dom of Theodore the Anatolian, by one Theodore

the deacon of Gains, Archbishop of Antioch, who
claims to have succeeded his master on the archiepiscopal throne, and to have been an eye-witness
of the events which he describes.

the son of Soterichus by the niece of Euius, the

King, or Governor, of Antioch, and the grandson of

under the name of Diocletian. After the accession
of Diocletian a bitter feud broke out between him
and Theodore and Claudius, and the Empress urged
him to destroy Theodore, of whom he was greatly
afraid.
In one of the wars between the
Romans
and Persians, Nikometes, another son of the King

of Persia, was captured and taken to Antioch, but
was allowed to escape with the connivance of Theodore and the help of Archbishop Gains, who wanted

Diocletian found this out he slew the Archbishop
and plundered all the churches in Antioch, and
seized Theodore by treachery, and had him crucified
on the great persea tree near the gate of the palace

the story of the conversion and baptism of Isaac

the Samaritan, which was due to a miracle wrought
by the presbyter Apa Bacchus, and to the appearance

of a Cross of light at the bottom of a lake of bitter
water.
Isaac was a scoffer, and took every opportunity of reviling the Christians, and pointing the
finger of scorn at them because they went up to
Jerusalem to worship a piece of wood, which was
not only idolatry, but disobedience to the Law of
Moses. One day he entered into a dispute with
a presbyter, who succeeded in making
sweet some bitter waters by throwing into it two
bits of wood tied together in the form of a cross,

DESCRIPTION OF THE MANUSCRIPTS

Oriental, No. 7030.
1.
This manuscript contains 43 vellum leaves measuring

from 11| to 12 in. in length by about 8|in. in width.
The volume was very much used in ancient days, for the
outer margins of the leaves are soiled and
worn and
torn.
The pagination runs from S-oit, then we have naL TTh.

The quires are six in number, and are signed by letters.

usually written in black ink,
and decorated with red borders, but sometimes the reverse is

the case (e.g. Foil. 4, 7, 19).
The letter aa is often filled
with a large red dot. One of the best pages of writing in
the volume is illustrated by Plate I.
The only piece of
decoration in the volume is found on Fol. 1 a (see Plate II},
and consists of a narrow plaited- work border painted in red and

black.
Bound up with the manuscript are some fragments of
books which were used by the monks of Edfu for
padding in the original binding. On one of these is a portion

Anatolian, and his martyrdom, is of an unusual character,

of peculiar interest, because it treats of events and matters
and
of a secular character,
which writers of encomia on
saints
and
martyrs were not accustomed to include in their works. Theodore begins his discourse with a eulogy on the city of Antioch,
which he describes as a beautiful and fertile garden, filled
with trees bearing scented blossoms. Great men and generals

rejoice therein, and Antioch may, in this respect, be compared
with the heavenly Jerusalem, the abode of the Saints. In a
series of
highly rhetorical sentences the Patriarch of Antioch
goes on to comment on the deaths of the nobles of Antioch,

which were brought about by the cruel acts of Diocletian,

His angels, and upon the punishment which Diocletian is

In the neighbourhood of Tarsus in Cilicia there lived a

certain man called Samar, who was a great landed proprietor,
and who possessed gardens, vineyards, and orchards, and who

grew wheat on a very large scale. When he died he left all
his property to his sons,

The Discourse by Demetrius, Archbishop op Antioch,

ON THE Birth or our Lord and on the Virgin Mary.
Of Demetrius, Archbishop
of Antioch,
who
claims to have
ordained St. John Chrysostom a presbyter, little seems to be

known. It is clear that there is some confusion in the Coptic
text, for St.
John Chrysostom was made presbyter by Flavian
in 386, having been ordained deacon
by Meletius
in 381.

Demetrius opens his discourse with a reference to the twofold joy which attaches to the month of Khoiak (Nov. 27Dec. 26),
first
because at
its
beginning- the festival of harvest
is
celebrated, and secondly because at its end is the great festival

of the Nativitv.
According to a tradition which he found in
some work on Chronology, Demetrius also states that Christ was
born on the day of the new moon of Khoiak (November 27),

which fell on a Sunday. Mary, he says, was the daughter of
Joakim and Svisanna
(sic),
and was the child
of their old age.
She was born on the Sabbath, on the 15th day of the month
of Hathor, and on the following Sabbath her name was
registered in the Temple, because she
was the
first-born child.
When
she was three years old, her mother took her to the
Temple to give her to the Lord, and as soon as the child was
upon her feet she walked into the Temple by herself and
went on into the place behind the veil, where she remained,
set
and wholly forgot her parents. At the age of ten she wore
a dainty, spotless tunic, which was kept in position by a girdle,
and a kaf^yah^ or head-cloth, which covered her eyes. She
wore no sandals, and her feet, arms, and hands were unadorned
by jewellery

When he returned to Alexandria he reported to the Archbishop

Athanasius what he had seen and heard, and offered, if he

that no one was better fitted to be bishop than Macedonius

prayed for the conversion of the people to Christianity. One

After the see of Philae had been vacant for some time^ the

the following great and wonder-worthy history which redoundeth to the glory of God and of His holy Archangel
Michael.
There was a certain righteous
man who was a
lover of God,

and who loved
with his wife,
to give alms,
who was
and he

agreement
a prudent and pious woman, and
who
was as wholly devoted to works of charity and almsgiving as

was her husband. And these two people were devoted followers of the holy Archangel Michael ; now the name of the
man was Dorotheus, and the name of his wife was Theopiste.
And from
the time
when they were married
now both
of
them were still quite yoving they had each possessed a large
and certain income, which had descended to them from their
parents, and they possessed flocks and herds, and also other
necessary goods of this world. And these two people observed
a good custom in respect of the holy Archangel Michael on
the twelfth day of each month.
When the twelfth day was
drawing nigh they prepared offerings on the eleventh day of

each month, and on the morning of the twelfth day, at
Fol. 25 b
daybreak, they used to send their first-fruits and their offerings

with gladness to the shrine of the holy Archangel Michael.
And
afterwards they used to kill a sheep, and stew the meat

thereof with pot-herbs in a cooking pot, and they baked as
much bread as was likely to be required. And when they
had made an end of these preparations they would receive the

Holy Mysteries, and then they would summon every needy
person whom they could find and bring him into their house,
and the blind, and the halt, and the widows, and the orphans,
and the strangers (i. e. pilgrims), and every one whom they
